Chapter 823: Subduing Three Monster Kings
Lu Xuan sighed and said, “He’s definitely Xiaoyao Hou’s disciple; he’s just as sly as his master.”
Lu Xuan could tell what Gongsun Wuji was planning based on all the information he had from his past and current lives.
The man wasn’t very fond of the master and disciple. They were threats to his life before he was reincarnated.
Fortunately, Gongsun Wuji acted ten years earlier in this life. Lu Xuan was sure he could overpower the enemy.
As for the old sly fox Xiaoyao Hou, Lu Xuan wasn’t worried either as the former was still struggling to break into the Consolidation Realm. There was no doubt that Xiaoyao Hou was in hiding while trying his best to achieve a higher level.
Even if he were to face Lu Xuan now, the latter would not be fazed. To be even more precise, Lu Xuan could still face Xiaoyao Hou even if the latter managed to break into the Consolidation Realm.
During Lu Xuan’s past life, he had once faced a Consolidation Realm cultivator while he was still in the Three Flower Realm. Thus, he was sure that he could achieve the same thing in this life where he was much more experienced.
The reincarnated man possessed many trump cards that could ensure his survival if he were to get into a battle with cultivators in the Consolidation Realm.
His hard work had paid off; he was now completely different from the man he was in his past life.
“You’re right, God Lu! They’re both sly foxes. They asked for our help but never showed their faces even once! Who knew that the disciple of my acquaintance, Xiaoyao Hou, was this kind of person?” Flame Horse King immediately nodded after hearing Lu Xuan’s remark. The more the monster thought about it, the more it realized it was tricked.
It was evident the one that wanted Lu Xuan dead was Gongsun Wuji.
The monster kings that came to help were either killed or caught. Despite that, the one who planned it all never showed himself.
It only proved to the monster kings that they were being used by Gongsun Wuji, especially when the latter kept insisting that Lu Xuan was weak enough for the monster kings to defeat if they worked together.
The mastermind even stated that the Resistance’s nuclear weapons were enough to take the target down. There was no need for the monsters to do the dirty work themselves.
None of the monster kings had expected the nuclear attack to fail, which ultimately led to their untimely deaths.
Everything pointed to the fact they were used and tricked.
Even the Snow Fox King, who wasn’t moving before, was nodding as hard as it could. Facing Lu Xuan head-on made them realize the vast difference in strength between them.
Others would’ve thought that the monster kings were too weak to take Lu Xuan down, but anyone present could clearly feel how terrifying Lu Xuan could be.
The monster kings weren’t weak by comparison. It was just that Lu Xuan was too powerful.
The Snow Fox King had never met someone as terrifying as Lu Xuan. Some people guessed that Lu Xuan had already reached the pinnacle of the Three Flower Realm, but the fox monster could tell that they were wrong. The monster possessed magic where it could boost its senses. Lu Xuan’s attacks were filled with powerful spiritual energy, but they lacked primordial energy. In layman’s terms, Lu Xuan’s spiritual energy was far more superior than his primordial spirit.
The Snow Fox King could immediately tell that Lu Xuan had yet to condense all three spirit flowers. The monster was amazed by how a human could be so strong while he was still in the Two Flower Realm.
If the monster was asked whether or not Lu Xuan could defeat a cultivator in the Three Flower Realm, the monster would not be able to give a definitive answer. However, the monster was sure that the man was the strongest among everyone in the Two Flower Realm.
He would’ve been unbeatable as long as he wasn’t facing anyone that was at least in the Three Flower Realm.
Nobody could even come close.
The Snow Fox King had met many talented cultivators in its lifetime, but none of them could even come close to being on Lu Xuan’s level.
The monster could not believe that Gongsun Wuji would describe such a powerful being as a weak Child of Destiny from Earth.
It was clearly a lie.
If Gongsun Wuji had not brought the monster kings together, the Snow Wolf King would’ve never left the Arctic.
It would’ve been almost virtually impossible for the monster kings to work together after they had fought each other for centuries. The battle against Lu Xuan was possible because Xiaoyao Hou maintained a good relationship with the monsters.
“Even if you guys are surrendering, it doesn’t mean you’re all innocent. From today onwards, I’ll be branding my energy on your primordial energy. All of you will work for me now. How does that sound?” Lu Xuan stared at the remaining three Legendary Monster Kings, including the Vulture King, who was still lying in the pit after being sent flying by Lu Xuan’s punch.
Each of these Legendary Monster Kings was at the top of the food chain.
Before the battle, they were kings of their own species, masters of all. Now, they were about to be subdued by a mere human.
” “From today onwards, you’ll be my master. I vow to help you take Gongsun Wuji down!” The Flame Horse King was the first to kneel. Understanding the situation it was in, it knew that surrendering was the right thing to do to ensure its survival.
The monster kings had always followed a class system. It wasn’t abnormal for the Flame Horse King to address Lu Xuan as its master after surrendering itself.
The Flame Horse King opened a path to the core of his primordial energy so that Lu Xuan could use his to form a master and slave relationship between them.
From that moment onwards, Lu Xuan had complete control over the Flame Horse King’s life. Instead of being worried, the monster let out a sigh of relief as the contract was an assurance that Lu Xuan had accepted its apology and was not planning on killing it anytime soon.
It was as if the Flame Horse King had just returned from the brink of death. The experience terrified it so much that it couldn’t stop sweating.
With the Flame Horse King setting an example, Snow Fox King opened a path into his primordial energy right after that.
The Vulture King made the same decision as well. As soon as it felt Lu Xuan’s eyes on it, it quickly struggled to get up and knelt in front of the man before giving him full control over it.
Lu Xuan finally nodded in satisfaction. Like the rabbits before, three of the Four Legendary Monster Kings would guard Yunxuan Villa.
Since Lu Xuan’s core and family were there, he had to make sure the security was the best he could find.
The other reason that Lu Xuan needed so many powerful allies was that their growth potential was limited when compared to the Deep Sea Poison Dragon. The latter could continue to grow by purifying its bloodline until it became a poisonous dragon that could rule over all worlds one day.
As poisonous dragons were considered Genuine Dragons, their talent and growth were unparalleled. These dragons were on another level compared to the monster kings that only had the power to rule over middle-class worlds.
Since Lu Xuan was able to subdue the three Legendary Monster Kings, he lost interest in the Purple Rat King as the latter was relatively weak in comparison.
Instead, the man decided to send the rat monster to assist the Earth Federation.
