Chapter 35: Pavilion Master of the Dream Flower Pavilion

Chapter 35: Pavilion Master of the Dream Flower PavilionWith Luo Feng’s transmission, Morosa and Moyu Qingyan quickly hurried towards the cave residence.

“Master, your retreat this time was too short.” Morosa arrived first, landing to the side with a hint of reluctance; the carefree and leisurely days had been too brief.

Luo Feng glanced at him. “The duration of the retreat can naturally be long or short. Do you still have enough Cosmos Sand on you?”

“Master understands me.” Morosa grinned broadly. “It’s almost used up.”

“Use it sparingly.” Luo Feng tossed him a Moyu bottle.

Taking the Moyu bottle, Morosa sensed the hundred or so pieces of Cosmos Sand and several piles of chaos crystals inside, making his smile even brighter. “Master is truly benevolent; there is no one in Huyang City more benevolent than you.”

“Alright, alright, enough flattery.” Luo Feng smiled.

He prohibited Morosa from causing trouble, so Morosa had no income and needed some pocket money.

At this time, Moyu Qingyan also returned on a small flying boat. After putting away the boat, he flew over to Luo Feng and respectfully saluted, “Master.”

“During this time, you must have enjoyed yourself too.” Morosa commented from the side. “Many forces actively sought me out, so they must have sought you out as well.”

“Yes.” Moyu Qingyan replied respectfully. “While you were in seclusion, some forces in Huyang City couldn’t visit you, so they came to me. I refused most of them, but I couldn’t refuse the gifts from thirteen major forces. The total value of the gifts amounts to about 300 pieces of Cosmos Sand!”

After all, he was just a servant. The gifts from each force trying to befriend him wouldn’t be too valuable, but considering Luo Feng’s influence, the major forces would give at least ten pieces of Cosmos Sand.

“If Qingyan received so much, you must have received even more?” Luo Feng looked at Morosa. “You just said you were almost out.”

Morosa grinned sheepishly. He had accepted the gifts, but as for the favors they asked in return, he had declined them all. “Master, you know, the expenses in Huyang City are quite high.”

“Did they ask you for any favors when they gave you the gifts?” Luo Feng asked.

“No.” Morosa replied. “I just gave them a transmission token so they could contact me if needed, and I could report to you.”

“I also didn’t agree to anything, just provided a way to contact me.” Moyu Qingyan added. “However, my older brother’s master, the Eternal True God Zhu You from the Zhu Clan, asked me to pass on a message inviting you to a banquet.”

Luo Feng nodded. “The Zhu Clan is indeed the largest local family in Huyang City. I can meet him.”

“Shall I notify Divine Lord Zhu You?” Moyu Qingyan asked.

“Yes.” Luo Feng nodded.

Moyu Qingyan immediately sent a message and quickly said, “Master, Divine Lord Zhu You invites you to meet at Dream Flower Pavilion tonight.”

“It’s been a while since I visited Dream Flower Pavilion.” Luo Feng nodded. “Accept his invitation.”

When Luo Feng exited seclusion, Gao Wushui went to visit his master, Magili Xiao, of the Magili Clan.

“How is your comprehension of the ‘Three-Blade Sky-Splitting Beast’?” Magili Xiao asked his favorite disciple.

“The ‘Three-Blade Sky-Splitting Beast’ is indeed an eternal-grade mechanical treasure. I’ve only barely managed to execute all its moves after studying it for so long.” Gao Wushui replied.

Magili Xiao nodded. “Your willpower is extraordinary, and you are skilled in formations. You became an Eternal True God not long ago, and you have already mastered all the moves of the ‘Three-Blade Sky-Splitting Beast.’ I knew I wasn’t wrong about you!”

“Master, as a newly promoted Eternal True God, I’ve been appointed as one of the ten commanders of the Huyang Guard, but many Eternal True Gods are dissatisfied.” Gao Wushui said in a low voice.

The ten generals of the Huyang Legion and the ten commanders of the Huyang Guard could all command legion-type mechanical treasures. With Magili Xiao himself commanding one of the legions, there were only nineteen lucrative positions available.

Strength represented power and resources. The competition for these nineteen positions was fierce.

Among the Eternal True Gods from the Five Great Families and those affiliated with them, there were over a hundred Eternal True Gods in total, making the competition extremely intense. As a newly promoted Eternal True God, Gao Wushui taking one of the positions naturally caused dissatisfaction.

“Ignore those useless people.” Magili Xiao said indifferently. “Legion-type mechanical treasures also depend on who is wielding them! I can suppress the combined forces of the other nine legions with just one.”

“Even at the Void True God stage, your mental willpower reached the peak of the Eternal True God level! You are naturally suited to wield mechanical treasures. Once you have accumulated enough, I will find an opportunity for you to command one of the ten Huyang Legions.”

“Command a Huyang Legion?” Gao Wushui was shocked and felt the pressure.

“The ten Huyang Legions are far more important than the Huyang Guard. The difficulty of wielding mechanical treasures is also higher. You need to accumulate enough, and it would be best if your mental willpower could break through to the Chaos Overlord level. Then, the entire City Lord’s Mansion wouldn’t oppose you commanding a legion.” Magili Xiao said.

Gao Wushui nodded. “I understand.”

At the Void True God stage, his mental willpower reached the peak of the Eternal True God level. Gao Wushui was determined and eager to break through to the Chaos Overlord level.

“Go now.” Magili Xiao nodded.

Among his many subordinates and disciples, Gao Wushui was the most suitable to wield mechanical treasures, so Magili Xiao heavily cultivated him.

Gao Wushui respectfully took his leave.

Walking through a garden in the Magili Clan’s cave residence, Magili Feiyun and Diao Rongqi, who had been waiting, immediately stopped him.

“Senior Brother Gao Wu.” Magili Feiyun called out.

Gao Wushui had to stop, feeling quite troubled.

Despite reaching the Eternal True God level, he had never experienced romance. Due to the bloodline cultivation system on the Origin Continent, the majority of flesh-and-blood beings could indeed reproduce.

However, beings on the Origin Continent typically had very long lifespans. True Gods had a lifespan of thirty thousand eras, and Void True Gods had infinite lifespans.

They didn’t need to eat or drink; absorbing the power of heaven and earth allowed them to live indefinitely! Many cultivators had no intention of seeking a companion.

Gao Wushui was one such person.

Cultivation was endlessly enjoyable. Why need a wife?

“Feiyun.” Gao Wushui smiled awkwardly. He couldn’t neglect Magili Feiyun due to his master’s nurturing.

“Since we happened to meet today, how about we go out and have some fun?” Magili Feiyun’s mind was entirely on Gao Wushui.

“Commander Gao Wu, Feiyun mentions your name almost every day.” Diao Rongqi smiled. “In my opinion, you should just move to the Magili family residence. That way, you can see each other every day.”

“Yes, yes, move to our residence. We have more than ten Eternal True Gods living there, plenty of space.” Magili Feiyun added.

Just as Gao Wushui was about to speak, a young man from the Magili family flew over from a distance, scrutinizing Gao Wushui. “Commander Gao Wu!”

“Young Master Magili Lian.” Gao Wushui smiled.

“Magili Lian, what are you doing here?” Magili Feiyun asked displeased.

Magili Lian sneered.

The Magili Clan was vast, and Magili Lian was a genius of the younger generation, personally guided by Magili Xiao, with the potential to become an Eternal True God.

However, Gao Wushui was Magili Xiao’s favorite disciple.

Previously, Magili Lian had always considered Gao Wushui a rival, but now Gao Wushui had become an Eternal True God first and was appointed as one of the ten commanders of the Huyang Guard. Naturally, Magili Lian was envious and jealous. seaʀᴄh thё NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Commander Gao Wu, I admire your hatred for evil.” Magili Lian tossed a golden stone. “This memory stone contains evidence of the crimes of Mei Wuqi from the Meiwu Family. His evil deeds… even those dark forces are no match for him. I wonder how Commander Gao Wu will deal with such a heinous criminal?”

“Magili Lian!” Magili Feiyun scolded. “Mei Wuqi is an Eternal True God of the Meiwu Family, one of the Five Great Families. Any judgment should come from the Five Great Families, not the Huyang Guard.”

“According to Yuguo laws, the Huyang Guard handles violations within Huyang City. I want to see how Commander Gao Wu, who hates evil, will act.” Magili Lian sneered.

Gao Wushui took the memory stone and, with a thought, examined its contents, his expression changing.

“Are all these crimes true?” Gao Wushui asked Magili Lian. “When the ordinary city of Fangjiucheng was attacked by a beast horde, countless residents were killed or injured. You say that billions of True Gods were taken by Mei Wuqi to his ‘City of Evil’?”

There were three large cities and 189 ordinary cities in the Jiugang Chaos State.

Ordinary cities had very few Eternal True Gods and were much less secure.

“You’ve just become an Eternal True God. Given time, you’ll learn.” Magili Lian shook his head. “Mei Wuqi has flaunted his deeds, showing many members of the Five Great Families the interior of his treasure, the ‘City of Evil.’ Many members of the Five Great Families have seen it with their own eyes! The billions of True Gods from Fangjiucheng are just a portion of the ‘evil citizens’ of the City of Evil.”

“Of course, most of the citizens taken into the City of Evil have long been tortured to death.” Magili Lian sneered. “What will you do with such an evil person, Commander Gao Wu?”

Without a word, Gao Wushui turned and left.

“Hate evil? Let’s see how he deals with Mei Wuqi of the Meiwu Family.” Magili Lian watched him leave with disdain.

“Magili Lian, what are you trying to do?” Magili Feiyun asked in disbelief.

“Can’t you see? I’m instigating conflict between Gao Wushui and Mei Wuqi!” Magili Lian said. “Either of them suffering would be satisfying.”

“I will tell Father about this.” Magili Feiyun said.

“Do as you wish.”

Magili Lian turned and left.

Night fell.

Luo Feng, accompanied by Morosa and Moyu Qingyan, arrived at the Dream Flower Pavilion.

“Brother Luo He.” Zhu You had been waiting.

“Brother Zhu You, you arrived early.” Luo Feng said.

“Haha, with the opportunity to entertain Brother Luo He, I had to come early. The banquet is all set. Please.” Zhu You laughed. His hair resembled tiny snakes, and his face, covered in green patterns, beamed with a bright smile.

Luo Feng and Zhu You flew together, followed by their servants and attendants.

“My Zhu Clan has been rooted in Huyang City for over a million eras, passing down through generations. There are few secrets in Huyang City unknown to us.” Zhu You laughed. “When it comes to information, Yan Feng Pavilion, the City Lord’s Mansion, and Shiguo forces… at least in Huyang City, they are all a bit inferior to my Zhu Clan.”

Luo Feng nodded, believing this point.

The Zhu Clan was enormous, deeply embedded in various industries in Huyang City. Even within the Huyang Legion and the Huyang Guard, there were experts from the Zhu Clan.

“The Zhu Clan’s reputation is well-known in Huyang City.” Luo Feng commented.

“Divine Lord Luo He, Divine Lord Zhu You.” The Pavilion Master of the Dream Flower Pavilion greeted them personally. To survive in Huyang City, she dared not offend either of these two.

“Would you like the Pavilion Master of the Dream Flower Pavilion to perform music?” Zhu You didn’t even look at the Pavilion Master, smiling at Luo Feng. “If Brother Luo He wishes to listen, I’m sure the Pavilion Master will oblige.”

“It’s up to Divine Lord Luo He.” The Pavilion Master of the Dream Flower Pavilion smiled softly.

At Zhu You’s command, the Pavilion Master had no choice but to comply.

“No need. Just have Aloya come.” Luo Feng said.

The Pavilion Master was slightly taken aback but smiled. “Divine Lord Luo He truly favors Aloya.”

“It’s the Pavilion Master’s illusions that I cannot handle.” Luo Feng laughed.

“Then let’s quickly have Aloya come.” Zhu You said, leading Luo Feng further in.

The Pavilion Master of the Dream Flower Pavilion watched silently.

Though Zhu You appeared exceedingly friendly with Luo Feng, managing many affairs of the Zhu Clan, both the City Lord’s Mansion and the forces of Shiguo had to show him respect, and the eighteen major dark forces dared not oppose the Zhu Clan.

“Ever since the last time, Luo He has been unwilling to listen to my illusionary music.” The Pavilion Master felt a bit disappointed. Compared to Entropy Tianyan and Sang Shuiyun, she preferred to influence Luo He.
