Chapter 126: Episode 3 Chapter 10 The Wrath of Marquis Chu Yuan

As time flowed gently by, Emperor Chu Yu of Emperor Chu's Lineage appeared to be much more low-key during the distribution of tasks among the seven First-Rank Marquises.And in the blink of an eye, half a century had passed.

"Finally, it's my turn to have priority again," Emperor Chu Yu, with the help of the First-Rank Marquis Command, had discovered a newly emerged emperor-level task.

Even among the First-Rank Marquises, emperor-level tasks were rare, and the seven had to choose in sequence.

"Guardian of the Ghostfire World?" Emperor Chu Yu gazed at the task, his eyes ablaze with excitement, "This task might even be more valuable than the 'Northern Sea Beast Forest'."

"My priority rights..."

With a cold smile, Emperor Chu Yu did not hesitate to claim the task for himself.

After being taught a lesson last time, he had kept a low profile for half a century. Now, at this crucial moment, he made his move again. As he seized the task, the other six First-Rank Marquises were also informed simultaneously.

"Hmm? Interesting."

"It seems we've underestimated this Chu Yu; he's quite bold."

"He dares to snatch it directly? He's asking for death!"

"No hurry, Marquis Chu Yuan will surely be the first to act." Searᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The other First-Rank Marquises each had their own thoughts.

Indeed, upon realizing that Emperor Chu Yu had dared to use his priority rights to claim the emperor-level task, Marquis Chu Yuan was immediately consumed by nameless rage that scorched his entire body, and even his soul.

"A newly advanced being of Primal Chaos Realm with weak strength should just bear it! How dare he compete with me?" Marquis Chu Yuan was furious.

In his view, only those at the Pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm had the qualification for a fair competition! A newly advanced being from the Primal Chaos Realm, even with the aid of unlimited godly bodies and the resources of a First-Rank Marquis for cultivation, still had a huge gap in strength and was not qualified to compete with them!

"Emperor Chu Yu!" Marquis Chu Yuan contacted Emperor Chu Yu, transmitting his voice directly, "You've got some nerve to snatch an emperor-level task."

"What? Am I, a First-Rank Marquis, not qualified to seize an emperor-level task?" Emperor Chu Yu responded indifferently.

Transmitting his voice across the vast distance, he was not afraid of that madman.

"It seems the lesson from last time didn't work on you," Marquis Chu Yuan's voice transmitted with murderous intent.

"I hear you, Marquis Chu Yuan, are very powerful. Among the seven First-Rank Marquises, you are the strongest? Even fighting many at the Pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm without meeting an adversary?" Emperor Chu Yu said with interest, "I am currently inside my mansion; if you have the guts, kill your way here!"

Marquis Chu Yuan paused.

Storm into the First-Rank Marquis Mansion?

Even a Guest Elder's Cave mansion could harness a trace of the power of Chu Capital City, something that even beings who had transcended the Primal Chaos Realm feared immensely.

And a First-Rank Marquis Mansion could harness even more of the city's power! Even some ancient Godly Kings wouldn't dare to charge in recklessly.

"You're just going to hide in your mansion?" Marquis Chu Yuan said.

"You guessed right, I have no mandatory tasks before the protection period! So during the protection period... I will stay inside the Marquis Mansion," Emperor Chu Yu responded leisurely, "I won't step out of the mansion. What can you do to me?"

Marquis Chu Yuan was infuriated.

"I will not yield on any task," Emperor Chu Yu said coldly, "You and I are both First-Rank Marquises. Think you can suppress me? Delusional!"

"Very well, that's just great!" Marquis Chu Yuan's face twisted.

Emperor Chu Yu immediately cut off the communication, unwilling to deal with that madman any longer. Inside his own Marquis Mansion, Emperor Chu Yu was completely fearless.

After cutting off the transmission, Emperor Chu Yu thought for a moment, then immediately contacted Luo Feng, "Guest Official Luo He, I have some conflicts with the other First-Rank Marquises. It's best if your disciples don't go outside for the time being."

"Oh?" Luo Feng, who was in seclusion, received the message, "Don't worry, I will instruct them."

Luo Feng had entrusted Morosa, Moyu Qingyan, and Primoridal Ancestor with instructions.

...

"Aaaaah!"

Marquis Chu Yuan, driven to fury, caused thunder to flicker as he instantly tore apart the pavilion building he was in, and even two maids outside the pavilion were caught in the aftermath. The maids were turned to ash in an instant amidst their terror and despair.

"Damn it, damn it," Marquis Chu Yuan's eyes were completely filled with lightning.

Just then, a figure appeared high in the sky, none other than Marquis Chu Ji.

"Chu Yuan!" Marquis Chu Ji rebuked, striking at the soul, restoring some clarity to Marquis Chu Yuan's eyes, who then looked up to see Marquis Chu Ji descending.

"Big brother," Marquis Chu Yuan gritted his teeth, "This Emperor Chu Yu did it on purpose, he is deliberately provoking me."

"Yes, he is deliberately provoking you, making you go mad again, so that you break the laws set down by our Primoridal Ancestor. Then, he can imprison you in the Ghostfire World for ten thousand years," Marquis Chu Ji scolded.

Marquis Chu Yuan paused, looking at the only brother he trusted.

"You've come this far, become a First-Rank Marquis, after enduring many hardships," Marquis Chu Ji said, "You have exceptional talent, and you even have hope to transcend the Primal Chaos Realm! At this time, don't fall for the other's scheme; if you go mad and act recklessly... it will only amuse Emperor Chu Yu."

Marquis Chu Yuan nodded.

"In all matters, pay attention to the laws. As long as you don't break the prohibitions, that's all that matters." Marquis Chu Ji was also helpless; this brother of his still had some sense left, but as he cultivated the Primordial Secret Method inheritance, his temperament became increasingly uncontrollable.

"Many of the Thunder Ancient Country's Imperial Clan members have uncontrollable tempers, bursting out at times to confront even Godly Kings. My brother has certainly inherited some of the traits of the Thunder Ancient Country's Imperial Clan," Marquis Chu Ji thought to himself.

Having inherited the bloodlines of two great imperial clans, and after becoming a being of Primal Chaos Realm, Primoridal Ancestor personally guided Marquis Chu Yuan in his cultivation, causing his strength to soar.

"Summon a few Guest Elders to come over, we'll discuss and find a solution," Marquis Chu Ji said.

"Alright," Marquis Chu Yuan nodded, reining in his temperament.

A moment passed.

Marquis Chu Ji, Marquis Chu Yuan, and the three guest elders gathered. These five Pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm existences discussed the matter, which was also a way for Marquis Chu Yuan to vent his anger! Given Marquis Chu Yuan's temper, failing to vent his anger... would only make him grow more irate.

"Emperor Chu Yu said that during the protection period, he would stay within the Marquis Mansion and not take half a step outside," said Marquis Chu Yuan, his ugly face full of thick black hair bristling with fury, "I really wish I could smash him into a pulp! Fine, if he won't step out, I refuse to believe his wife and children won't!"

"To act against the close relatives of a First-Rank Marquis is equivalent to taking action against the Marquis himself," added Marquis Chu Ji from the side.

"I'm not going to kill them, just rough them up a bit," Marquis Chu Yuan, his body emitting black Qi, insisted, "As long as they don't die, it's merely a minor punishment."

"Taking action against relatives is crossing the line," Marquis Chu Ji shook his head.

"This isn't allowed, that isn't allowed, then what can we do?" Marquis Chu Yuan said angrily.

The man in blue robes on the side chuckled, "Marquis Chu Yuan needn't hurry. The reason Emperor Chu Yu is unyielding is because he wants to compete for resources... so we should strike at what he cares about the most. Isn't his biggest help at the moment that guest official Luo He? There are no laws against disciplining a guest official, and not even death would be investigated."

In the Flame Wind Ancient Country, there were many guest officials, and strife among them was common. The Ancient Country couldn't possibly manage it all.

"Right, the most powerful person beside him is that Luo He," nodded Marquis Chu Yuan, "But Luo He is at the Pinnacle of Primal Chaos Realm level, certainly practicing several life-saving secret techniques, making it too difficult to kill him outright."

He wasn't confident either.

"While we may not be able to kill him outright, as long as we destroy him once and take away the treasures he carries, it will certainly be a huge blow to him," the man in blue robes said.

"A strong person like him would carry the treasures he has accumulated over the long years with him. Die once, lose all his treasures, and even if he could survive by using life-saving techniques, the pain would be immense," said an old woman at his side.

"With our means, we might not be able to kill him outright, but taking his treasures will not be difficult," said an old man whose left arm was encircled by golden rings leisurely.

"Good."

Marquis Chu Yuan nodded, "He's hiding himself, so we'll act against his guest official! Let's see if this guest official Luo He will dare to continue helping Emperor Chu Yu!"

...

Luo Feng did indeed entrust Morosa, Moyu Qingyan, and the Primordial Ancestor, so even if they went out, they were just Divine Power Incarnations taking a stroll.

In Chu Capital, Thousand Star Tower.

"I was once suppressed by the Primordial Cosmos for most of a Reincarnation Era, intently perceiving the myriad states of beings and the movement of all things," The Primordial Ancestor sat in a small building within the Thousand Star Tower, drinking as he observed the lives of the beings outside, "Yet the myriad states and rules of movement of the beings in the Land of Origin are much more mysterious."

After obtaining a wealth of inheritance from the Heartshadow Sect, the Primordial Ancestor started integrating many experiences of his predecessors and began to create a Dharma at the Eternal level for the 'Virtual Universe'.

As the Dharma started to take shape, the Primordial Ancestor's strength improved significantly.

"Sometimes, what's real is also an illusion, and an illusion can also be reality," the Primordial Ancestor smiled.

"With my Dharma in its initial success, I can form an 'Illusionary Avatar', which possesses a third of my True Body's strength," the Primordial Ancestor said contentedly, "I hear that even among beings of Primal Chaos Realm, there are few who have the method of creating an Avatar."

Suddenly—

A ripple descended.

The Primordial Ancestor saw a figure in a blue robe standing to the side, its intangible might already completely binding the Primordial Ancestor.

At this moment, the Primordial Ancestor felt as though the blue-robed figure was like an endless heaven and earth, leaving no room for resistance, with the gap between them being unimaginably huge.

"Are you the Primordial?" the blue-robed figure looked at him. Indeed, this was an Eternal True God Level Physical Body, not some Divine Power Incarnation.

"May I know what the Great Saint desires?" the Primordial Ancestor rose to pay respects.

"I hear that the guest official Luo He went to great lengths for you, bringing you to Chu Capital," said the blue-robed figure leisurely, "Send a message to Luo He promptly, tell him... if he doesn't come, you're as good as dead."

The Primordial Ancestor was slightly taken aback.

"Yes, I will send the message immediately," The Primordial Ancestor still kept a very low profile.

...

Inside Luo Feng's Cave Dwelling.

Luo Feng was summoned from his secluded cultivation.

"Primordial Ancestor, is there an urgent matter?" Luo Feng looked at the Primordial Ancestor.

"Luo Feng, my Illusionary Avatar in the city's Thousand Star Tower encountered the guest official 'Great Saint Tianyu' of Marquis Chu Yuan. He wants you to go there immediately, otherwise he will kill me," said the Primordial Ancestor, "But don't worry, he only captured my Illusionary Avatar."

"Illusionary Avatar? Great Saint Tianyu couldn't recognize it?" Luo Feng was surprised.

He hadn't even cultivated an Avatar himself yet.

The inheritances from the Heartshadow Sect didn't have any Secret Technique for Avatars. Could the Primordial Ancestor possibly have managed to cultivate an Illusionary Avatar?

"The Illusionary Avatar is also a real Physical Body, just weaker than my main self," the Primordial Ancestor explained.

Luo Feng nodded slightly. If the Primordial Ancestor was captured, he would have been somewhat troubled.

Now?

Luo Feng was only filled with burning fury.

They had started targeting people close to him? Luo Feng's killing intent grew even more intense.

"You must be careful. If they ask you to go there, there may be an ambush waiting," the Primordial Ancestor cautioned.

"Don't worry."

Luo Feng nodded, then stepped forward and disappeared into the Void.
