Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 345: Just Asking?

Chapter 345: Chapter 345: Just Asking?

Alchemy Master Guild had existed on the Tianheng Continent for a long time, formed by various esteemed Alchemy Masters from the continent. Due to their prestigious and exalted statuses, the Alchemy Master Guild’s reputation had grown increasingly influential across the Tianheng Continent, making it an unapproachable power.

Anyone who joined the Alchemy Master Guild would receive its protection! Now, the Alchemy Master Guild had branches all over the Tianheng Continent, just like how every empire in the Eastern Domain had its own Alchemy Master Guild establishment.

After Shi Feng returned to the initially dark and gloomy area, his figure flickered, and he hurriedly shot towards the cave he had come from. Racing through the deep cave, he soon arrived at the original entrance where a black wall blocked his way. However, Shi Feng’s body merely brushed lightly against the black wall, passing through it and leaving a person-shaped hole.

Following that, Shi Feng’s figure continued to penetrate through the dilapidated house personally handled by the Heavenly Demon Supreme, swiftly breaking through the roof and, in a blink, returned to Luqing City, standing proudly in the void!

"Look! Who is that person? How dare he fly through space in Luqing City unregulatedly? Isn’t he seeking his own death?"

In Luqing City, it didn’t take long for people to notice the figure standing proudly in the void. At this moment, Shi Feng, no longer donned in the blood-colored battle armor, was wearing the black robe again.

Shi Feng’s presence immediately emitted a rolling pressure. Those who were discussing the figure in the void felt a powerful pressure, as heavy as a mountain, and quickly shut their mouths. Then, Shi Feng said loudly, "Luqing City Lord, come out and meet me!"

"Luqing City Lord, come out and meet me!"

"Luqing City Lord, come out and meet me!"

...

Shi Feng’s voice resonated throughout Luqing City, echoing for a long time!

"What! Who exactly is this person? Which powerful figure is he, demanding the City Lord himself to meet him?" Soon, as more and more people saw the black figure in the void, discussions began once again.

However, only moments later, a cyan figure shot out from the City Lord Mansion at breakneck speed towards the black figure in the void, yelling as he flew, "Which honorable person wishes to see me?" Although he hadn’t yet got a clear look at Shi Feng, feeling the overwhelming pressure in the void, the Luqing City Lord did not dare to delay.

"Ah!" When the Luqing City Lord approached Shi Feng and clearly saw the face of the figure standing proud in the void, he quickly cried out in shock and respectfully shouted, "So it is Lord War God himself gracing Luqing City, my negligence in welcoming you is truly unforgivable!"

This Luqing City Lord originally ruled under the Heavenly Mist Empire, and after Long Chen unified Luqing City, to facilitate governance, many former lords were retained, with only trustworthy confidants replaced as Deputy City Lords to assist in administration.

As soon as the Luqing City Lord approached Shi Feng, he immediately knelt down in the void and announced, "Greetings, Lord War God!" Though he greeted Shi Feng, the Luqing City Lord’s heart was already in turmoil. Hearing of Shi Feng’s infamous reputation as a City Lord, and with Shi Feng summoning him so imposingly, he knew there must be serious matters at hand.

Could it be that his good-for-nothing son, who wasted his days in revelry and creating trouble, had offended this god?

But that couldn’t be possible. He had already informed everyone at the City Lord Mansion, even showing them the portrait of this god, warning them to remember never to provoke this deity, especially that troublesome son. He had placed a portrait in his son’s room, instructing him to worship it daily, so that if he ever encountered this god, he should kneel before him as if before a deity itself.

Just as the Luqing City Lord was anxiously pondering these matters, from a building next to City Lord Mansion, which housed the Deputy City Lord, and had only been recently completed, a big man clad in black battle armor and riding a Three-stage Spirit Rank Purple Thunderbird flew out. From afar, his loud laughter could be heard, "Haha, Young Master Feng, so it was you! What brings you to this insignificant city!"

Shi Feng had initially intended to speak to the Luqing City Lord, but hearing that hearty laughter, he brushed aside the Luqing City Lord and looked towards the source of the sound. The man was Zhang Hu, who had accompanied Shi Feng on a trip to explore the ancient ruins outside Moon City.

When Shi Feng first met Zhang Hu, his Martial Arts Realm was merely at Two-star Martial Spirit. Under Shi Feng’s guidance, he advanced to Three-star Martial Spirit.

After entering the ancient ruins with Shi Feng, Shi Feng taught him a secret technique, channeling all the Primordial Power in his body into his Dantian. Under Shi Feng’s further guidance, he successfully ascended to the Four-star Martial Spirit Realm.

Looking at Zhang Hu, Shi Feng nodded slightly and said, "Not bad, in such a short time, you’ve already reached the Five-star Martial Spirit Realm!"

"Hehe!" As Zhang Hu approached Shi Feng on his Thunderbird, he scratched his head with his right hand and revealed a simple grin, saying, "It’s all thanks to Young Master Feng’s guidance and secret techniques, and instructing me in the ways of Martial Arts and the Supreme Sword Skill that I have reached where I am today."

Inside the ancient ruins, Shi Feng had indeed taught Zhang Hu a move of the Supreme Sword Skill, the first form of the Heavenly Thunder Sword Technique, the Blocking Style! With his current level in the Martial Spirit Realm, even if he later advanced to the Martial King Realm, he could remain unbeaten among those of the same realm!

Subsequently, Zhang Hu turned to look at the Luqing City Lord, who was kneeling in front of Shi Feng and had been ignored by Shi Feng, and asked puzzledly, "Old Gao, what’s going on here? Did your good-for-nothing son provoke Young Master Feng?"

The family name of Luqing City Lord was Gao, and his given name was Li. Although he was the City Lord of Luqing, Zhang Hu was a confidant of Long Chen and had been sent by Dragon City to help manage Luqing City as a Deputy City Lord, so their status was nearly equivalent. Sometimes, when major decisions were to be made, Gao Li would even consult Deputy City Lord Zhang Hu for his opinion.

Gao Li had a son who was famously known as a spoiled rich kid in Luqing City, a reputation that Zhang Hu had heard about even though he had been there only a short time.

"Please, Lord War God, speak plainly! What crime has Gao Li committed? I beg for Lord War God’s forgiveness! If Lord War God can quell his anger, Gao Li is ready to take his own life immediately, hoping Lord War God would show mercy and spare Gao Li’s family!" The Luqing City Lord Gao Li said, his voice tinged with a crying tone, his face filled with grief, remorse, and a pitiful look that seemed almost tearful.

Mad Demon Shi Feng, he could very well be a demon that annihilates entire families! How could Gao Li not be afraid!

Looking at Gao Li’s expression and hearing what he had just said, Shi Feng almost wanted to laugh, then he said, "Actually, I came to find you for something not so serious; I just wanted to ask, in which city is the Alchemy Master Guild located?"

"What!"
