King of Ten Thousand Years

Steward Dong, who had been full of confidence just moments ago, suddenly felt a pang of uncertainty.

”Steward Dong, Luo Tian has a powerful Divine Weapon, but he can’t use it repeatedly. If we join forces, his defeat is certain!”

Li Shan revealed Luo Tian’s trump card and its weakness.

”So that’s how it is.”

Steward Dong nodded slightly.

’Just what kind of powerful Divine Weapon is it? To think it could even heavily injure the captain of the Golden Lion Thief Gang.’

”Luo Tian, how many more of those sword attacks can you use?”

Ye Feng couldn’t help but ask.

They had been ecstatic at first, seeing Luo Tian defeat the captain of the Golden Lion Thief Gang with such a powerful trump card.

But then, people from the Life and Death Prison Arena had shown up.

They thought they had escaped disaster, but it turned out there was danger beyond danger!

The Void Ship from the Life and Death Prison Arena was docked just over a hundred meters behind Luo Tian and his group.

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

Several figures flew out.

Among them was Steward Dong, at the Earth Element Realm Fourth Layer, but the men he brought included three at the Earth Element Realm Fifth Layer and one at the Earth Element Realm Sixth Layer.

In addition, there were ten other Earth Element Realm cultivators, a powerful lineup indeed!

”Young Master Li Shan, I will be sure to complete the task you gave me!”

On the other side, the burly middle-aged man also stood up.

Luo Tian possessed a great treasure, and if he wanted a slice of the pie, he would have to put in more effort!

”Luo Tian, you’re finished! You’ll die a miserable death for offending me!”

Li Shan immediately sneered with smug satisfaction.

Several of the pirates felt that Li Shan’s behavior was rather disgraceful.

Just a moment ago, he was the first to kneel and beg for mercy, even wetting his pants. Now that his backup had arrived, he instantly turned hostile, gloating and making threats.

”Heh, is that so?”

Luo Tian chuckled softly, his expression still calm.

On the pirates’ side, everyone was shocked and uncertain.

’Things have come to this, yet Luo Tian is still so composed?’

’Could it be that he has another ace up his sleeve?’

Even Li Shan flinched and took a dozen steps back, a shadow of fear for Luo Tian already forming in his heart.

Steward Dong was baffled. A single sentence from Luo Tian had actually frightened the Golden Lion Thief Gang.

’It seems the notoriously fearsome Golden Lion Thief Gang isn’t all they’re cracked up to be!’

’Perfect. I’ll take all the credit for myself, and the Supreme Divine Soldiers in Luo Tian’s hands will be mine too!’

Greed flashed in Steward Dong’s eyes.

Suddenly, WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH! Three figures sped over from the distance. At first, they seemed to be just passing by, but then the trio headed straight for this location.

The old man in the lead wore a gray robe, his body covered in scales. He emanated an aura as deep as an abyss and vast as the sea, causing all living things to tremble in fear wherever he passed!

The man and woman beside him also had impressive Cultivation!

”A High Tier Earth Element Realm expert!”

Steward Dong stared at the gray-robed old man, his eyelid twitching!

High Tier Earth Element Realm meant being at the Earth Element Realm Sixth Layer or above!

Furthermore, the two people beside this gray-robed old man were both experts around the Earth Element Realm Fifth Layer!

’Could it be? Are these his reinforcements? Is this the real reason he’s so fearless?’

The expressions on the faces of Steward Dong and his men became incredibly grim!

The Golden Lion Thief Gang on the other side was also startled. Li Shan was so frustrated he felt like cursing someone’s mother.

SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH!

The three strange experts stopped nearby, all of them staring at Luo Tian.

”It seems we arrived just in time.”

One of them, a woman of an Alien Race, smiled.

”Seniors, this boy has offended someone he shouldn’t have. I ask that you please not interfere and allow me to take him back!”

Steward Dong bowed to the gray-robed old man.

He had his own difficulties and had no choice but to take Luo Tian back.

The gray-robed old man’s eyes, like pits of black ice, glanced at Steward Dong as a majestic Spiritual Power surged forward.

In an instant, Steward Dong’s body went stiff and trembled. His face turned deathly pale as he stumbled back three steps, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.

A single glance was enough to injure Steward Dong, an expert of the Earth Element Realm Fourth Layer!

”Say that again?”

The gray-robed old man’s voice was old and hoarse.

”This humble one said nothing.”

Steward Dong lowered his head and apologized.

The gray-robed old man’s face was icy. With a wave of his hand, a ghastly green wave of horrifying energy rolled out, rising thirty to forty meters high as it surged forward, blotting out the sky.

BOOM!

The Void Ship from the Life and Death Prison Arena was like a small boat in a raging sea, swept a hundred meters away, its hull left battered and broken.

Everyone on the ship was trembling with fear.

A moment ago, they even thought the gray-robed old man was going to kill them.

Ruthless and domineering!

The entire scene was stunned into silence. Under the gray-robed old man’s oppressive might, no one dared to even breathe too loudly.

’Is this Luo Tian’s backup? What kind of background does he have?’

Yi Jingwen, Cheng Wanli, and the others were also completely dumbfounded.

They had never heard of Luo Tian having acquaintances in the Outer World.

”Luo Tian, you’ve got some nerve, daring to show your face in the Broken-star Realm. Come back with us obediently!”

the gray-robed old man said coldly, his hands clasped behind his back.

As soon as he said this, the Golden Lion Thief Gang, the people from the Life and Death Prison Arena, and even Luo Tian’s own crew all stared wide-eyed, their minds filled with question marks.

’So... after all that, they aren’t Luo Tian’s backup, but his enemies!’

Ye Feng and his fellow sect members were speechless.

The Golden Lion Thief Gang and the people from the Life and Death Prison Arena, on the other hand, felt as if their intelligence had been insulted.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Their fear of the gray-robed old man lessened.

”You’re from the Sea Demon Palace, aren’t you?”

Luo Tian said calmly.

”That’s right!” The gray-robed old man revealed a proud smile.

The Sea Demon Palace was one of the three Overlord Level factions in the Broken-star Realm. The few of them were on a mission nearby, so when they learned of Luo Tian’s whereabouts, they had rushed over at once.

”The Sea Demon Palace!”

The burly middle-aged man, Steward Dong, and the others were once again terrified.

’Good heavens! Luo Tian’s guts and his talent for causing trouble were truly beyond their imagination. He even dared to offend the Sea Demon Palace.’

Their faces immediately filled with obsequious and respectful smiles as they looked at the gray-robed old man.

”Excellent timing! This is the perfect chance to wipe you all out in one fell swoop.”

Luo Tian’s gaze swept across his surroundings.

The gray-robed old man was stunned for a moment, then he gave a sinister laugh. ”Then let me see just how you plan to wipe us all out!”

’He’s insane. This kid has definitely gone insane!’

The people from the Golden Lion Thief Gang and the Life and Death Prison Arena looked on as if they were watching a joke unfold.

”Luo Tian, even with that Divine Soldier, it’s useless against this expert!”

The burly middle-aged man sneered.

Faced with a chasm-like gap in power, even powerful divine weapons couldn’t bridge the difference. In the end, his personal strength was just too weak.

Luo Tian paid no heed to all the mockery and ridicule.

A Mysterious Blue Treasure Pearl appeared in his palm, shimmering with a brilliant light from within.

”Get rid of these running dogs!”

Luo Tian shouted, gripping the [Sea Blue Holy Pearl] in his palm. A powerful Spiritual Power seeped into it, putting pressure on the Residual Soul of Qin Aolan sealed within.

HUMMM!

The [Sea Blue Holy Pearl] began to tremble. The void around it faintly distorted as a heart-palpitating power rapidly began to build.

”This...”

The gray-robed old man’s expression darkened as a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.

WHOOSH!

He immediately attacked Luo Tian. With a wave of his sleeve, a ghastly green wave of energy rolled forth, its might soaring, vast and boundless.

Faced with a High Tier Earth Element Realm expert, Yi Jingwen, Yan Lihui, and the others all turned deathly pale. They didn’t run, nor did they resist; they knew it would be futile.

But suddenly, the Spiritual Qi from all directions trembled and rapidly converged.

A translucent, silver-blue phantom of a Mermaid suddenly materialized in front of Luo Tian. An indescribably terrifying aura swept out for dozens of miles in every direction.

”Begone!”

The Mermaid phantom was none other than Qin Aolan. Her exquisitely beautiful and noble face was as cold as ice.

With a single sweep of her mermaid tail in the void, a ripple of bone-chilling, distorted energy blasted forward.

BOOM! BANG! BANG! BANG!

The ghastly green wave was obliterated with unstoppable force.

The gray-robed old man and his two companions were sent flying a hundred meters.

The gray-robed old man’s face was pale as he spat out a mouthful of blood, his gaze fixed on the Mermaid phantom in horror.

As for the two beside him, they died on the spot!

”Kill all!”

Luo Tian uttered two words.

”Mm.”

The Mermaid phantom nodded lightly. She spread her arms, and a terrifying power radiated out, suppressing the entire area.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

Without any visible movement from her, streams of silver-gray light, like brilliant meteors, shot out in all directions.

”No! Senior, spare me, spare me!”

The burly man was so scared he dropped to his knees, kowtowing repeatedly as he begged for his life.

Even a High Tier Earth Element Realm expert had been severely wounded in a single blow; he had no power to resist whatsoever.

POW!

A silver-gray meteor crashed down, and flesh and blood splattered everywhere!

Immediately after, several more loud bangs echoed as the Lion-headed Void Ship was smashed full of holes and exploded, filling the sky with a terrifying blaze.

Half of the pirates were burned to death in the fiery explosion.

The rest were killed one by one under the Mermaid Lady’s assault.

At the same time, POW! The Void Ship from the Life and Death Prison Arena also exploded. Steward Dong and his men stared in utter despair at the silver-gray streams of light filling the sky.

”Senior, you should think this through! If you save Luo Tian, you will be making an enemy of the Sea Demon Palace!”

the gray-robed old man shouted.

In this Broken-star Realm, besides the Tai Yuan Sect and the Barbarian King Hall, who would dare to disrespect the Sea Demon Palace?

”The Sea Demon Palace?”

The Mermaid Lady scoffed.

POW!

The next moment, the gray-robed old man was also pierced by a stream of silver-gray light, dying a miserable death on the spot.

In less than five breaths, the three factions were completely annihilated!

Beside Luo Tian, Yi Jingwen, Yan Lihui, and the others were stunned silent, utterly dumbfounded.

”The one hiding in the shadows, aren’t you coming out yet?”

Luo Tian’s gaze was fixed on a certain spot.

HUMMM!

In the dark void, a figure with dark green skin gradually appeared.

Luo Tian had some impression of this person. It was the high-ranking Spirit Hall official who had personally inspected them when they first teleported to this Martial City Spirit Hall!

Luo Tian also noticed that this person bore a resemblance to Li Shan.

”Li Shan’s father?” Luo Tian asked.

”That’s right. I am indeed the father of that unfilial son,” the Spirit Hall official replied with a very humble attitude.

”It seems you were the one who leaked my whereabouts to the Sea Demon Palace.”

”And you were the one who deliberately let the people from the Life and Death Prison Arena go, letting them come after me!”

”And it was also you who condoned your son’s collusion with pirates to commit these atrocities?”

Luo Tian’s three questions left the Spirit Hall official speechless!

Just as Luo Tian had said, it was all true!

”This matter is my fault, but I have also paid the price. You’ve already killed Li Shan, so why don’t we just let this matter go.”

The Spirit Hall official’s tone held a hint of pleading.

He had a high Cultivation and held a position of great power. Usually, others were deferential and respectful to him; he had never spoken in such a subservient tone.

But alas, there was an even stronger existence by Luo Tian’s side.

That was definitely power on the Celestial Level!

”Kill him!”

Luo Tian was expressionless.

”You...”

The Spirit Hall official was stunned. He never expected Luo Tian to be so cold and domineering, showing him no respect at all!

’He was a high-ranking official with real power in the Martial City Spirit Hall! How dare Luo Tian kill him right here, so close to the Martial City Spirit Hall?’

The Mermaid phantom’s expression was indifferent. She attacked in an instant, without hesitation!

The Spirit Hall official turned and fled.

POW! RUMBLE!

Two or three thousand meters away, a brilliant, ice-cold explosion lit up a section of the void.

The Spirit Hall official was also no match for the Mermaid phantom and was crushed to death!

”Master, all the dogs have been killed!”

The Mermaid phantom looked at Luo Tian, her expression complex.

Her figure gradually turned transparent and disappeared.

This wasn’t her real body, but a phantom projection that Qin Aolan had manifested across space using the power of the Martial Venerable Hall and a powerful Secret Technique.
