Chapter 1731: Grudge And Resentment, Beginning And End
“Bullshit, despicable people dare call themselves King Ying!” shouted Tantai furiously.
People around looked at Tantai. He was brave and audacious, he dared humiliate champions, everybody knew that Ying Cheng was very aggressive and arrogant. If someone dared disrespect him, he killed them without hesitation.
“Tantai!” shouted Huang Fu Long grimly. He was furious because of the champions.
“What’s going on?” asked Lin Feng.
“Let’s go!” said Huang Fu Long, dragging Tantai away. People looked confused. Ying Cheng was terrifying, in the Holy City, he was very famous. Weak people better not offend him!
After leaving, Tantai said coldly, “Back then, when Ling Tian reappeared after a long time, he was extremely strong, he had studied Dragon Elephant strength. His strength was unfathomable. Nobody could compete with him in the tribe. He came to the Holy City, joined the Champion University, and then Ying Cheng plotted against him. He tried to kill him secretly, and Ling Tian was really badly injured and couldn’t recover. Such despicable people dare call themselves champions!?”
“What did he do?” asked Lin Feng. Even the small tribe had such incredible cultivators sometimes.
“I’m not sure. Only a few people knew about that battle, and they’re all dead now,” Tantai answered grimly.
“How can you be sure that Ying Cheng plotted against him? He’s extremely strong and he dares call himself a Champion, but he really is incredibly strong!” Lin Feng challenged him.
“I perfectly understand that. Back then, Ling Tian and Ying Cheng were considered incredible geniuses. Ling Tian was in Champion University, Ying Cheng is in the Celestial Godly University. They fought, Ling Tian’s gigantic elephant strength was terrifying and he defeated Ying Cheng. However, after that, Ling Tian was friendly to him and they became friends. But during the Competition of the Four Universities, Ling Tian was suddenly injured and couldn’t recover, he was killed. If you told me that Ying Cheng defeated Ling Tian in the framework of a normal battle, I wouldn’t believe it. Besides, Ling Tian thought of him as a friend, even during the competition, he would have never hurt him. But in the end, Ling Tian died… Ying Cheng definitely did something tricky!” declared Tantai. He sounded furious.
Ying Cheng had secretly killed Ling Tian? How sad. What a pity. A genius had been killed for no reason…
“Did Champion University get involved?” asked Ling Tian. After all, Ling Tian was a member of the Champion University, Ying Cheng was from the Celestial Godly University.
“Ling Tian died during the Competition of the Four Universities. Even if Ying Cheng resorted to evil methods, the Champion University couldn’t say anything. but some strong cultivators of the Champion University learned about it, but didn’t manage to do anything. That’s also one of the reasons why I want to join Champion University,” replied Tantai. He seemed annoyed. “Unfortunately, I’m not as talented as Ling Tian, and Ying Cheng is extremely strong. He’s become famous already. I can’t catch up with him anymore.”
“If you really want to, you’ll succeed, grand talents mature slowly, especially in your tribe,” said Lin Feng slapping Tantai’s shoulders and smiling encouragement. Tantai just nodded. “Since Ying Cheng is supposed to be a champion, we’ll see how arrogant he is.”
“Alright, good. I also want to see what a Champion looks like. There should also be many strong cultivators there,” nodded Lin Feng. Lin Feng actually didn’t care much about Ying Cheng. If he could see him, why not though? However, Lin Feng also thought that he might meet people he knew there.
Many people from the Vast Celestial Ancient City went to the Holy City, Lin Feng knew that. He also knew that Jun Mo Xi was there and also, he couldn’t wait to meet other friends from Tiantai. Maybe some of them would be in the Holy City? After all, for those people from the small world, the Holy City was symbolic, the name itself had always been very mysterious. Jun Mo Xi was here, Huang Fu Long was here, Lin Feng was here.
Since they were all here, Lin Feng was convinced that other people would come to the Holy City as well. It was only a matter of time. Besides, the Holy City was vast, it was as big as a small world. Bumping into friends or acquaintances wasn’t easy there, but during a big event, it would be possible.
“By the way, Huang Fu Long, Jun Mo Xi is also in the Holy City. You didn’t know that, right?” asked Lin Feng, grinning at Huang Fu Long.
“Really?” asked Huang Fu Long, stupefied.
“Indeed. You know the King of Hell Palace?” asked Lin Feng.
“King of Hell Palace?” Tantai was startled. “The King of Hell Palace was created by the King of Hell! In his best years, he started calling himself the King of Hell and amazed the Holy City. Now, the elders of the King of Hell Palace must have become incredibly strong.”
Lin Feng smiled. People admired strong cultivators in the world. Tantai admired Champions, but he was sad that Ying Cheng was one.
“Jun Mo Xi is now the Prince of Hell in the King of Hell Palace,” Lin Feng smiled.
Huang Fu Long and Tantai glanced at each other. Huang Fu Long smiled and said, “Not bad. He’s really awesome! Surprisingly, he became the Prince of Hell of the King of Hell Palace! Let’s go there! Let’s go and find Jun Mo Xi!”
“Huang Fu Long, you surprisingly have such strong friends!”Tantai said teasingly. Becoming a Prince of Hell of the King of Hell Palace was very difficult!
“Of course, Jun Mo Xi has the Imperial immortal body! In the small world, we didn’t care about king type bodies, but here we do. I have a Brutal Dragon Body, I am quite satisfied!” replied Huang Fu Long with a grin. Their boat started moving in the direction of the King of Hell Palace, they wanted to see Jun Mo Xi!
“Your Brutal Dragon Body is a joke!” mocked Tantai. Huang Fu Long looked angry, he wanted to hit the other, but unfortunately, he wasn’t strong enough.
“Tantai, I’ve never told you, but in our group of friends, Lin Feng was the most talented one, he was even stronger than Jun Mo Xi!. The most surprising thing is that he can’t break through to the Huang Qi layer.” Huang Fu Long shook his head. After so many years, Lin Feng should have broken through to the Huang Qi layer, why was he stuck at the top of the Zun Qi layer?
“Lin Feng was the most talented one? How strange.” antai looked intrigued.
“Huang Fu Long, my cultivation is different from yours. Whether I will break through to the Huang Qi layer or not is not a problem for me. You’ll understand soon.” smiled Lin Feng.
“Alright, I believe you. I hope you will surprise me pleasantly!” agreed Huang Fu Long, smiling and not insisting.
——
The King of Hell Palace was suspended above dark waters. Lin Feng and the others arrived by their skyboat. They looked at the vast palace in front of them; it looked like Hell, and it rather unreal.
The palace in front of them was floating above the water and kept flickering as if it was shaking. In front of the main gate, there was a bridge, and the bridge was floating in the air too.
“King of Hell Palace.” Lin Feng read the letters at the top of the gate. It looked incredible. Lin Feng thought that that place was probably a small world, including the murky waters.
“Let’s go!” said Lin Feng, jumping onto the bridge.
After a short time, he arrived in front of the main gate of the King of Hell Palace. Some guards were there, wearing dark metal armors. They looked at Lin Feng and asked, “Who are you?”
“I’m Jun Mo Xi’s friend. If we can’t go in, we can also wait for him here,” answered Lin Feng patiently. He had already contacted Jun Mo Xi using their talismans anyway.
“I see, please wait here,” replied one of the guards coldly. Not just anyone could get into their territory.
—
Very quickly, Jun Mo Xi arrived. He smiled at Lin Feng and Huang Fu Long. “Huang Fu Long, you came to the Holy City as well!”
“Right! And you became the Prince of Hell of the King of Hell Palace, that’s incredible!” exclaimed Huang Fu Long enthusiastically. “By the way, this is Tantai the Idiot, a new friend of mine.”
“Tantai the Wise!” said Tantai furiously. That bastard, how dare he say such an insulting thing?
“Oh man!” sighed Jun Mo Xi, glancing at Huang Fu Long. He then glanced at Tantai and said, “Brother Tantai, come to the King of Hell Palace.”
The friends headed along the main road of the King of Hell Palace. There were many palaces as it was gigantic, and the Qi there was pale but everywhere, like water.
“The King of Hell Palace is a cold place, Ice Hell,” exclaimed Tantai. He felt cold even though he was extremely strong. It meant that the energies here were terrifying.
“It’s cold here, it’s normal,” said Jun Mo Xi with a smile. The palace was beautiful, but still cold.
“Prince of Hell!” greeted someone, bowing before Jun Mo Xi on the way. Jun Mo Xi smiled back.
After a short time, they arrived in front of an ancient pavilion, Jun Mo Xi took some Hot Unit bottles from Lin Feng and grinned. “We haven’t drunk together for such a long time. Now, the four of us can have a drink!”
“Hehe, unfortunately, a girl is not here,” chuckled Huang Fu Long.
Lin Feng smiled at him and asked, “Do you miss Tian Chi Xue?”
“How could I? In the great world, there are many amazing women, how could I miss her?”
“Huang Fu Long, I’ll help you, I’ll introduce you to beautiful women. In the Holy City, there are many of them, and they’re very strong on top of that,” Jun Mo Xi smiled. He was the Prince of Hell of the King of Hell Palace. He knew the Holy City quite well already. He probably knew many geniuses.
“That’s…” Huang Fu Long looked confused and embarrassed, Lin Feng and the others just grinned at him.
“Come, have a drink.” Jun Mo Xi raised his glass and everybody downed their drinks. “Did you come here to go to university? In a month, the exams will start. Which university do you want to go to?”
“Champion University!” Lin Feng grinned.
“Champion University is not bad, but Lang Ye will go to Four Seasons University, he wants to learn everything,” Jun Mo Xi told him.
“Four Seasons University!” repeated Lin Feng: “It reminds me of Chu Chun Qiu. Of course, Chu Chun Qiu will probably go to the Ancient University.”
(Translator’s note: Chun Qiu means four seasons in Chinese, and the university is called Chun Qiu Xue Yuan).
