Chapter 0559: The Lanbo Family
Huang Long looked indifferent as he gazed at Lei Deli and slowly said, “It was me who killed him. So what?” Then he gave the other party a meaningful look.
It was like a supreme emperor looking down on a beggar who was furious in front of him.
Huang Long’s words reached the ears of the gods clearly.
The gods were stunned and stared at Huang Long in disbelief.
“You!” Lei Deli glared angrily.
However, he couldn’t gauge Huang Long’s true strength and dared not act for now.
“I belong to the Lanbo Family!” Lei Deli suppressed his murderous intent and spoke coldly in a low voice. The other party might not know his name, Lei Deli, but surely they knew of the Lanbo Family!
The Lanbo Family was among the top ten super-large families even on the Kale Continent.
On the Kale Continent, no one was unaware of the Lanbo Family.
Lei Deli waited for the other party to turn pale with fear upon realizing he was from the Lanbo Family and kneel before him, begging for mercy.
“The Lanbo Family?” Huang Long shook his head. “I’ve never heard of it.”
Huang Long truly had never heard of it.
Though he hadn’t heard of it, he could tell from the expressions of the surrounding gods that the Lanbo Family must be quite formidable. But to Huang Long, what if it was?
Lei Deli was outraged that Huang Long pretended not to know about the Lanbo Family—it was an insult, a simple insult!
Clearly, none of the surrounding gods believed Huang Long hadn’t heard of the Lanbo Family. They thought he had just spoken impulsively. Some of the higher-ranking gods shook their heads and sighed. Being arrogant was one thing, but it depended on who you were facing.
Even their lords couldn’t afford to provoke the Lanbo Family.
Lei Deli clenched his fists, veins bulging. Unable to hold back any longer, he leaped up, his long sword appearing in his hand as he swung it at Huang Long.
“A Primary Divine Artifact!” The gods around him exclaimed upon seeing the sword in Lei Deli’s hand.
Primary Divine Artifacts were artifacts crafted by the Supreme God and were still extremely rare in the eyes of gods-level powerhouses.
Lei Deli practiced the fire element laws. With one swing of his sword, a fire dragon lunged at Huang Long, snarling and ferocious.
Bina, who had come out of the El Family’s headquarters, along with the female high-ranking god guard behind her, happened to see Lei Deli attacking Huang Long. Bina’s beautiful eyes sparkled. “Is that Lei Deli?”
“Yes, miss. That’s Lei Deli!” the female high-ranking god guard replied quickly, her eyes shimmering with admiration as she stared at Lei Deli.
Indeed, Lei Deli’s posture as he attacked Huang Long was quite handsome and imposing—very manly. No wonder the female high-ranking god guard was so captivated. Even Bina, who had seen much of the world, couldn’t help but be impressed.
As for the opponent that Ledili attacked, why Ledili went out to attack that black-haired young man was not something they paid attention to—there was no need to. Huang Long watched as Ledili wielded his primary divine artifact to attack him, a cold smirk on his lips. Then he stretched out his right hand and grabbed straight for Ledili. Ledili never expected Huang Long to dare to grab his primary divine artifact with his hand; enraged, he poured all his divine power into it. The artifact seemed to sense its master’s anger as well, flashing with light and emitting a rumbling sound, causing all the gods around to be shocked and retreat in alarm. At that moment, under Ledili’s incredulous gaze, Huang Long’s right hand had already seized his primary divine artifact. Then, a tremendous force surged from Huang Long’s hand, causing Ledili’s body to tremble violently as he flew backward like a kite with its string cut. The gods stared blankly at Ledili, who was flying through the air in a perfect parabola, unable to react, with cries of agony still echoing. After a while, Ledili finally crashed to the ground, destroying the buildings around the street. Bina widened her eyes, as did the elite goddess guards. Everyone widened their eyes. “Young master, young master!” After a while, when Ledili’s elite god guards regained consciousness and rushed to his side, shouting urgently, the others finally realized what had happened. The cries of Ledili’s guards drew everyone’s attention to him; his eyes were filled with utter terror, and he had already been dead for a long time. The gods gasped in shock. Dead?! Ledili was dead?! How could the core member of the Lanbo family die like this?! Three thoughts flashed through the gods’ minds, filled with awe as they couldn’t believe that Ledili had truly been killed by that black-haired young man. Who was this black-haired young man? Even the lord of Yilei City wouldn’t dare kill Ledili, a core member of the Lanbo family, right? Not to mention a regular direct descendant of the Lanbo family—even then, the lord of Yilei City would have to show him respect. Huang Long ignored the gazes of the others, played with the primary divine artifact in his hand, and finally stored it inside the Five Prison Divine Cauldron. He certainly didn’t value the artifact, but it was never hurt to have more. Huang Long glanced at Bina and the surrounding gods before preparing to fly away. “You, stop!” Seeing Huang Long about to leave, Ledili’s elite god guards stood up in panic and shouted angrily. The young master was dead; if they allowed Huang Long to “escape,” their fate would be obvious.
Huang Long stopped in his tracks and turned to look at this superior divine guard of Lei Deli. His imposing aura forced the superior divine guard to retreat continuously. It was then that the guard realized the terrifying identity of Huang Long—someone who could effortlessly kill their young master. What kind of strength was that? Perfect mastery? Or perhaps, a powerful Supreme God?!
They had no idea when Huang Long had flown away. Only when the surrounding gods were in an uproar did they snap out of their shock.
“Lord Nord Bai, what should we do now?” one of the superior divine guards asked nervously the one who had tried to stop Huang Long from leaving.
Originally, their young master Lei Deli had come here out of interest after hearing about the beauty of Bina from the El family. They never expected this visit to turn into such a situation.
The expression of the superior divine guard changed drastically, and finally he said dejectedly, “Let’s go back!” With that, he picked up Lei Deli’s body and flew toward Nuo Ke City.
Nuo Ke City was one of the main cities controlled by the Lan Bo family, and Lei Deli was the son of its city lord.
The other superior divine guards turned pale and looked utterly despairful. They understood what the first guard meant—if they fled, their families would also be implicated. Moreover, even if they tried to escape, they wouldn’t succeed and would have to return to face their family’s punishment.
Bina and the surrounding gods watched as they left in low spirits, exchanging glances.
“Who is that dark-haired young man? He dared to kill Lei Deli. This is going to be interesting!”
“Yes, I heard that Lord Niswei, the city lord of Nuo Ke City, dotes very much on his son Lei Deli!”
“Could that dark-haired young man be from the Su Ge family?”
“The Su Ge family? Maybe he’s from Feng Jin Mountain!”
At the mention of Feng Jin Mountain, everyone’s expressions changed. The Su Ge family was the most powerful family on the Kale Continent, but it paled in comparison to the mysterious Feng Jin Mountain.
There were many theories about the origin of Feng Jin Mountain. Some said its master was an eternal and invincible Holy King, while others claimed it belonged to a supremely powerful Supreme God King.
To the north of the Kale Continent lay a magnificent castle. Although its size was similar to that of Fas City, its grandeur was many times greater. This was the headquarters of the Lan Bo family—Lan Bo City.
Inside Lan Bo City lived only the direct descendants of the Lan Bo family, just like the headquarters city of the Lu Ning family in the Netherworld.
“Saluting Lord Leo!” In a grand hall of Lan Bo City, a dignified middle-aged man bowed respectfully to a silver-haired young man.
If Yellow Dragon were here, he would recognize that imposing middle-aged man as Mori! The silver-haired young man nodded, glanced at Mori with a disdainful look, and said calmly, “Have you found the item?” His voice was gentle, but to Mori’s ears, it made him tense up immediately. He quickly replied respectfully, “Yes, Lord Leo, the item has been found!” Then he took out a scroll-like book and presented it to the silver-haired young man. The young man took it, unfolded it, glanced through it, smiled, and nodded, “Not bad. You’ve done well.” Hearing the young man’s praise, Mori was overjoyed and somewhat flattered. He hurriedly said, “It’s an honor for Mori to serve Lord Leo!” The young man nodded, “You’ll surely benefit from this.” Mori thanked him repeatedly. As Mori saw him off, the young man disappeared into thin air. Only after the young man left did Mori straighten up and wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, the task was completed this time. Thinking about the rewards to come, his heart grew warm. It took some time before Mori calmed down. If the tens of millions of descendants of the Lanbo family saw their strongest elder bowing so low before that silver-haired young man, they wouldn’t know what to think. “The item has been retrieved, though…” The image of Yellow Dragon flashed through Mori’s mind. Coming to this mid-tier divine plane this time, he hadn’t expected to almost be defeated by someone who hadn’t even merged his primary divine essence. “The Demon Tree, the Ancient Bell!” Mori muttered to himself, his eyes burning with determination. After much deliberation, he still decided not to report Yellow Dragon’s matter to Lord Leo. Still, it was Lord Leo who had opened the spatial tunnel, allowing him to come to this mid-tier divine plane—something he couldn’t do on his own. “I’ll have to find another way later,” Mori said to himself. With that, he vanished in a flash and returned to his place of seclusion. Meanwhile, in Noko City, chaos reigned. When those high-ranking divine guards returned to Noko City with Red Force’s divine body, the city’s ruler, Stin, flew into a fury. After learning what had happened, he immediately executed those high-ranking gods. “Find him! Find that black-haired young man! I demand you find him!” Stin’s eyes turned red as he roared from the main hall of the city ruler’s palace. “Yes, Lord Stin!” The guards in the palace replied respectfully, silent as mice.
