Swallowed Star 2: Origin Continent

Chapter 18: The Blood Python Society President and Luo Feng

“I’ll pay! I’ll pay!” The ‘True God’s Heart’ in Luo Feng’s hand emitted a voice. The face of Vice President Lai Mo on its surface was filled with anxiety and fear.

Dignity of a strong person was nothing but crap at this moment! Vice President Lai Mo had no desire to die!

“Where is the additional Cosmos Sand?” Luo Feng asked.

“It’s with the President! The President has it!” The ‘Vice President Lai Mo’ on the surface of the True God’s Heart shouted anxiously, “President! President!!!” His voice, infused with the power of an Eternal True God, naturally spread far and wide. If not for the Dream Flower Pavilion’s pervasive formation barriers, the range would have been even greater.

Whoosh.

A figure clad in black scales arrived at the entrance of Lanxing Hall—it was the Blood Python Society President, Mu Yang.

As the leader of a dark force, Mu Yang, despite his body being covered in black scales, exuded a restrained aura, appearing ordinary. However, anyone with access to information knew that the Blood Python Society President, Mu Yang, was one of the top figures in Huyang City, with unfathomable strength. Even the City Lord’s Mansion had suffered losses at his hands.

“Twelve thousand Cosmos Sand, I’ll make up the difference. Please spare my brother,” Blood Python Society President Mu Yang said with a smile. “And that staff weapon, we need it back as well. Please name your price.”

“Blood Python Society President, you’re quite straightforward,” Luo Feng said, holding the True God’s Heart in his left hand. With a casual wave of his hand, a staff flew out. “This staff is worth six thousand Cosmos Sand.”

“I haven’t even handed over the Cosmos Sand, and Luo He has already returned the weapon. Impressive, impressive!” Blood Python Society President Mu Yang praised with a smile.

The consequences of not providing the Cosmos Sand were entirely predictable for the President.

“Here are eighteen thousand Cosmos Sand.” The Blood Python Society President produced a black bottle. The black bottle flew toward Luo Feng. Luo Feng swept it with his divine power, confirming it was precisely 18,000 pieces—not one more, not one less.

Luo Feng accepted the black bottle with his right hand and flicked his left hand, sending the True God’s Heart as a stream of light into Vice President Lai Mo’s body. Vice President Lai Mo quickly recovered and stood up, looking at Luo Feng with fear.

During the negotiation, the other Eternal True Gods remained silent, fearing any unexpected events might provoke anger toward them.

“Luo He, I truly admire your strength. Compensating you with twenty thousand Cosmos Sand is well deserved,” Blood Python Society President Mu Yang said. “We’ll take our leave from tonight’s Hundred Flowers Banquet.”

After speaking, the Blood Python Society President walked out directly, with Vice President Lai Mo following. The Dream Flower Pavilion Master could only watch from the side.

Luo Feng looked at the black bottle in his hand.

“This President is quite patient,” Luo Feng thought. Among the dozen or so Eternal True Gods attending the Hundred Flowers Banquet, based on his intelligence, the most terrifyingly powerful and wealthy should be the Blood Python Society President, Mu Yang.

Although the two Eternal True Gods of the Qumeng Clan held high status, the Qumeng Clan had more than ten Eternal True Gods in Huyang City. Their secret techniques consumed a lot of resources, so how much could they have left?

The Blood Python Society, however, was solely controlled by its President, who had been exploiting the cultivators of Huyang City for a long time, amassing considerable wealth.

“Luo He,” the Dream Flower Pavilion Master approached. “Tonight is no longer suitable for staying. Pavilion Master, I must take my leave.”

Luo Feng stood up. The other Eternal True Gods watched from afar, and he couldn’t continue listening to the music.

Luo Feng left with Morosa. The Dream Flower Pavilion Master could only see them off, promising, “Rest assured, we will take good care of Aloya.”

The Dream Flower Pavilion Master was indeed a bit nervous.

She had no choice. Anyone who had seen Luo Feng grab Vice President Lai Mo’s ‘True God’s Heart’ would be nervous.

“This Luo He is too strong,” the Dream Flower Pavilion Master muttered as she watched Luo Feng leave. “He must be among the top in Huyang City, but why did he lose control under my illusion?”

“Tonight’s Hundred Flowers Banquet was truly spectacular!”

“This conflict ended with the Blood Python Society bowing their heads.” The two Eternal True Gods of the Qumeng Clan laughed as they stood up. Whether it was Luo Feng’s action or the Blood Python Society President Mu Yang’s compliance, both were astonishing to them.

A leader of a dark force bowing his head and compensating? How rare!

“Luo He’s strength is truly frightening.”

“Did he lose control in the illusion due to a flaw in his mind, or was it deliberate?” The Eternal True Gods each had their thoughts as they rose. They had no mind to continue attending the banquet.

“Luo He’s strength is above mine,” White Mist Lord murmured. “The Blood Python Society President is extremely powerful, yet he endured!”

As a fellow dark force in Huyang City, the White Mist Lord was well aware of the Blood Python Society President’s terrifying power!

If the Six Lords Alliance’s six Eternal True Gods had similar strength, their combined power would be formidable. However, the Blood Python Society’s strength mainly lay in its President! The two Vice Presidents were much weaker!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The Eternal True Gods, some discussing and some lost in thought, flew away one by one. Only Entropy Tianyan and Sang Shuiyun, who were enamored with the Dream Flower Pavilion Master, remained.

“My new friend Luo He is incredibly strong!” Entropy Tianyan praised. “He was even willing to drink with me and acknowledge me as a friend.”

“With such strength, how could he lose control in an illusion?” Feathered-wing man Sang Shuiyun’s dejected eyes were filled with confusion. “An Eternal True God might have weak willpower, but such a powerful Eternal True God cannot have a weak will!”

“Indeed, refining exotic beast bloodlines or cultivating powerful secret techniques both require extremely strong willpower,” Entropy Tianyan said.

“But he did lose control just now,” Sang Shuiyun said. “You and I both saw it.”

Entropy Tianyan was startled, then nodded, “Yes, he did lose control just now.”

“I can’t understand,” Sang Shuiyun said, full of confusion.

“Sometimes, losing control isn’t due to the strength of the illusion,” Entropy Tianyan said. “It might be because he chose to immerse himself.”

“Chose to immerse himself?” Sang Shuiyun looked at Entropy Tianyan. “Is there something in the illusion he seeks?”

Seeing the Dream Flower Pavilion Master flying over from a distance, Entropy Tianyan’s eyes lit up, and he hurriedly called out, “Pavilion Master!”

Sang Shuiyun’s gaze softened a bit when looking at the Dream Flower Pavilion Master.

At the Blood Python Society headquarters.

“This time, our Blood Python Society has lost face. Being suppressed by a newly emerged Eternal True God, even the President had to apologize,” a thin figure couldn’t help but say. He was another Vice President of the Blood Python Society, Mu Lin. “This happened at the Dream Flower Pavilion, with so many Eternal True Gods witnessing it. By tomorrow, this will spread to all forces in Huyang City!”

Vice President Lai Mo and President Mu Yang remained silent.

“Lai Mo, is he really that powerful? He took your True God’s Heart with one move?” Vice President Mu Lin pressed.

“Do you think I’d make this up?” Vice President Lai Mo retorted in anger and humiliation.

“Enough.”

President Mu Yang looked out the window and said, “Let this matter rest.”

Vice President Mu Lin looked at his fellow clan member in surprise. “Are we just going to let Luo He suppress the Blood Python Society?”

“A regular Eternal True God daring to challenge us would be intolerable,” Mu Yang said calmly. “But an Eternal True God who can take Vice President Lai Mo’s True God’s Heart in one move—we can bow our heads without shame.”

Mu Yang gazed out the window. “Besides, I can see he’s waiting for me to act! The enemy is in the dark; we are in the light. He knows a lot about me, but I know nothing about him… of course, I won’t act.”

“Let’s wait until I know his background,” Mu Yang said coldly. “He will pay the price.”

The conflict was witnessed by over a dozen Eternal True Gods. Word spread quickly, and soon, all the forces in Huyang City received detailed intelligence about the clash.

All sides remembered the name ‘Luo He.’

In a small building within the Yan Feng Pavilion.

“This Luo He is truly interesting,” the Yan Feng Pavilion Master said, looking at the latest report. “Losing control under the Dream Flower Pavilion Master’s musical illusion, yet turning around to seize Vice President Lai Mo’s True God’s Heart without any special treasure or weapon.”

A gray mist figure organizing the intelligence calmly said, “He acted in front of the Blood Python Society President, Mu Yang. Clearly, he was prepared for a confrontation. But Mu Yang endured and bowed his head.”

“Uncle, who do you think is stronger?” the Yan Feng Pavilion Master asked curiously.

“The Blood Python Society’s territory has attracted many covetous forces. The Five Great Families have all taken ruthless actions. Our investigations revealed several assassination attempts where the Blood Python Society President survived, and several Eternal True Gods from

the Five Great Families died at his hands. To this day, we haven’t uncovered his true strength,” the gray mist figure said. “As for Luo He, we know almost nothing about him. He’s too mysterious.”

“Who is stronger? Only a direct confrontation can tell,” the gray mist figure said.

“From what I know of the Blood Python Society President, this matter won’t end here,” the Yan Feng Pavilion Master’s eyes glinted with anticipation.

Within Chaos Armor No. 3 super-large cave residence.

Magili Meng looked at the latest intelligence from the City Lord’s Mansion, also surprised: “Luo He can suppress the Blood Python Society? The City Lord’s Mansion directly upgraded his rating to Grade A?”

The City Lord’s Mansion rated each Eternal True God from highest to lowest as Grade A, B, C, and D.

The highest ‘Grade A’ signified… an Eternal True God that even an entire Huyang Legion couldn’t subdue!
