Chapter 98 Peacock King - Stars Shining in the Azure Sky vs. True Immortal King Descending to the Nine Heavens
The next day, the group traveled to the Qixia Mountains within the territory of the Jin State. On a beautiful mountain, a handsome young man of sixteen or seventeen stood quietly. He looked somewhat thin and frail.
Ye Fan instinctively started a conversation, and even tried to pat her on the shoulder, but Ji Ziyue's expression changed.
Lu Sheng cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Senior Peacock King, you are truly a man of great stature. I have long admired you."
In his heart, he was actually complaining, "He's so old, why is he still acting like a kid?"
"Now that you know my name, aren't you afraid of me?"
The Peacock King smiled leisurely and said, "The Holy Lord Yaoguang hates me to the bone."
"What does it have to do with me that the Holy Lord of Yaoguang hates you? I'm not from his lineage."
Lu Sheng spoke very frankly, saying that the Ruthless lineage was not a big secret at the level of a powerful figure.
The Peacock King responded with an "Oh," his smile widening even further: "What if I were to say that in my eyes, your lineage is inferior to that of the Holy Lord Yao Guang?"
"That's even better, I'm the victim."
Lu Sheng pointed directly in a certain direction behind him, betraying the old servant: "Look, I'm still being monitored. Since you, the Peacock King, look down on me, why not just kill him while you're at it?"
"That disobedient old man should have been fired long ago."
The void behind them exploded, and an old servant appeared, fleeing frantically.
Without even blinking, the Peacock King gently raised his hand, and in an instant, a firework exploded in the distance.
He then continued to say to Lu Sheng, "You're quite a remarkable person."
"Even so, I am a powerful demon, why do you think I won't take care of you as well?"
'
Peacock King changed the subject and stared directly at Lu Sheng. Although he was just a handsome young man, he made Ye Fanji and Ziyue, who were standing next to him, feel quite pressured.
Lu Sheng stated directly, "Strictly speaking, we are relatives."
"Oh?" The Peacock King suddenly burst into laughter. "Interesting, kid. Could it be that you're some kind of hidden demon?"
"I'm not a demon, but it's not like humans and demons can't become sworn brothers. Ugh, I mean, I have some connection with Senior Jiang Yi from the Thirteen Great Bandits."
Senior Peacock King and Senior Azure Dragon King had a past, and Senior Azure Dragon King and Senior Jiang Yi, being both great bandits, naturally had a connection.
Lu Sheng spoke eloquently: "Rounding down, do you think I have no relation to you, senior?"
"Since you chose to confront the Ji family just because Yan Ruyu is also a demon, you must not have targeted me, who is related to you, without a reason."
The Peacock King's smile widened, and he said, "Interesting, very interesting. Tell me, what is your relationship with that man surnamed Jiang?"
"Although I have just emerged from seclusion, I know that your name is Lu Sheng, but you are not surnamed Jiang, nor do you belong to the Jiang family. You are a candidate for Holy Son of the Yao Guang Holy Land."
Lu Sheng replied preparedly, "But I have a relationship with Senior Jiang Yi's nephew, Uncle Jiang."
Why did Senior Jiang Yi transform into a bandit?
"It's all because Senior Jiang Zhe had a falling out with the Jiang family patriarch's lineage many years ago, which is why the two brothers left one after another."
"Senior Jiang Yi was very successful in the Northern Region, but Senior Jiang Zhe chose to live in seclusion and let his descendants live ordinary lives."
"It's a pity that, being of the Jiang family bloodline, how can one live a peaceful life?"
"Jiang Zhe's grandson entered Yandi Cave Heaven, but was murdered, leaving only Old Man Jiang and young Tingting to depend on each other for survival."
"A mortal family that has only ever produced cultivators of the Sea of Wheels bullies the descendants of a prestigious ancient family, and bullies a pair of lonely grandfather and grandson."
"Leaving aside the bloodline they carry, they are just ordinary mortals who live upright lives and do good deeds for others, yet their property is seized by others. Even after retreating again and again, the other party still refuses to give up and wants to abduct a three-year-old child to be a slave."
Lu Sheng calmly asked, "I have long heard that Senior Peacock King values gratitude and loyalty highly. If this were to happen, what would you do?"
The Peacock King's expression remained calm, but his words carried a chilling, bloodthirsty tone: "The entire clan should be slaughtered."
"Therefore, I have already done what was rightfully mine. When Jiang Yi sees me in the future, how can he not owe me a favor?"
Lu Sheng then said, "Since the Great Bandit is named after the same group, and you, senior, have been acquainted with the Great Bandit, how could you not have a connection with me?"
The Peacock King nodded, a hint of appreciation in his eyes, and said, "Exactly."
"However, although I have a reason to let you go, but..."
He then changed the subject, his tone intriguing: "The other day you faced off against the Ji family's divine body and held your own. I'm curious, how does your 'Great Sun Illuminating the Heavens' compare to my 'Stars Shining in the Azure Sky'?"
With a wave of his hand, the world, which was originally bright under the blazing sun, instantly turned into night.
The dark night sky was filled with stars, like diamonds embedded in it, constantly sparkling.
Lu Sheng then turned to Ye Fan and said, "You guys go first. Senior Peacock King's purpose in coming here is simply to find out why the Demon Emperor's Heart flew away from your body."
"Once you cross this canopy of sky, he won't make things difficult for you."
"Although they are demons, they are much more ethical than some people in powerful forces like the Ji family, Jiang family, and Yao Guang family."
Ji Ziyue muttered to herself, "How come my Ji family doesn't care about morality?"
Without saying a word, Ye Fan headed straight out of the sky. There was no need to hesitate at a time like this.
The Peacock King remained as steady as a mountain, saying, "Boy, do you really think I'm easy to talk to? Or do you think this little connection is enough to sway me?"
He squinted and said, "What if I don't let go?"
"That's the calamity they deserved," Lu Sheng replied calmly.
The Peacock King laughed heartily, while Lu Sheng said unhurriedly, "Since you are here, I will explain everything else as well. The descendant of the Azure Emperor is currently occupying the body of my sworn brother."
"I won't say anything about Senior choosing to protect Yan Ruyu. But you bastard, tell him to help my brother strengthen his body. If he dares to seize his consciousness, well, never mind, he's already doomed anyway. Forget what I said."
Lu Sheng shook his head and said, "You blind fool."
The Peacock King narrowed his eyes: "Boy, you're arrogant. Knowing I'm protecting the Demon Emperor's descendant, you still dare to speak so arrogantly?"
"Tch, Pang Bo is a genuine demon god with pure blood."
Lu Sheng scoffed, "Even if you're a demon, do you advocate for demon cultivators to devour and seize each other's bodies? Whoever breaks the rules, who do you protect?"
"Of course not." The Peacock King snorted coldly. "It's just an internal matter of my demon race. Boy, I can let you go for the sake of the Azure Dragon King's friendship."
"But that's not a reason for you to take the initiative."
His slightest movement caused the heavens and earth to tremble, and the extraordinary phenomenon of stars shining brightly in the blue sky intensified.
"Come on, let me see what you're capable of."
"Let me see what gives you the confidence to speak to such a powerful person like this."
Lu Sheng remained completely calm; he was naturally very confident.
"I am invincible in the universe, and destiny has ordained me to become an immortal."
"The light of the stars can never rival the brilliance of the sun."
He unleashed a strange phenomenon, and the great sun reappeared. The Peacock King calmly illuminated the heavens, and the stars shone even brighter. He chuckled and said, "It seems your great sun cannot suppress my stars."
"However, the extraordinary phenomenon I casually created, though it resembles the blazing sun, is no different from the moon that radiates light."
Lu Sheng smiled and said, "The extraordinary phenomenon I have been practicing diligently for a long time is called True Immortal King Descending Upon the Nine Heavens!"
