Chapter 0593: The Netterson Family

Hibere’s meaning was clearly understood by Yellow Dragon. However, it was impossible for Yellow Dragon to join any of the factions—Tianlong Mountain, Fengjin Mountain, Leipeng Mountain, Yinfu Mountain, or Shuangyan Mountain.
Yellow Dragon pondered and said, “I don’t have any plans for now.”
In fact, Yellow Dragon truly had no plans. If there was one intention, it was to find theNetherworld Tree—the other parts of the World Tree mentioned by Leo—and merge them to enhance his strength and achieve the state of Hunyuan Immortal.
To become a Hunyuan Immortal, one would be immortal and eternal, truly existing through time—this was the desire of all cultivators in the Pangu World, including Yellow Dragon.
In the Pangu World, due to limited conditions, Yellow Dragon dared not hope for this, but in this world, that desire was no longer out of reach.
Hibere wasn’t giving up. Smiling, he said, “Leipeng Mountain’s Leipeng Hall is in need of a hall master. I wonder if Brother Yellow Dragon is interested?”
All five mountains—Tianlong Mountain and the others—had hall masters and elders, but the hall master held a higher status than an elder. In other words, every hall master was an elder, but not every elder was a hall master.
Leipeng Mountain had four halls, each headed by an elder from the mountain. The head of the main hall was Hibere himself. Now, by offering the position of Leipeng Hall master to Yellow Dragon, Hibere clearly valued him highly.
If Yellow Dragon accepted the position, he would be second to none on Leipeng Mountain.
Leo, Opot, Livia, Yidehai, and Muli all changed expressions and turned to look at Yellow Dragon.
Livia felt anxious. Although Yellow Dragon had rejected her before, she doubted he would agree to join Leipeng Mountain either. But who could be sure? If Leipeng Mountain gained Yellow Dragon, the balance of power in the Chaos Divine Realm might be shattered forever.
Yellow Dragon shook his head and said, “I appreciate King Hibere’s kindness.”
Seeing Yellow Dragon refuse, Leo, Livia, and the others felt relieved.
Hibere, however, looked disappointed. Though he had expected Yellow Dragon to refuse, hearing it outright still caused disappointment.
“Hehe, if that’s the case, I won’t insist,” Hibere said, quickly regaining his composure. “As long as Brother Yellow Dragon is willing in the future, the position of Leipeng Hall master will always be reserved for him.”
Yellow Dragon thanked him politely.
At that moment, Hibere turned to an elder beside him and said, “Bring Nalk here!”

“Yes, Divine King!” the elder quickly replied with reverence. After saying that, he stepped back. Before long, when he entered the hall again, he was followed by a young man who was bowing low and trembling violently—it was Erke, the one who had arranged for Huang Long to be placed in the courtyard at the foot of Leipeng Mountain.

Huang Long remained calm. He wanted to see what kind of drama Hebrei would put on.

“Divine King, please spare my life! Please spare me!” As soon as Erke entered, he knelt down immediately and began to worship frantically, his forehead repeatedly hitting the ground until blood stained the surroundings.

Hebrei remained indifferent. He turned to Huang Long and said, “Brother Huang Long, this Erke secretly arranged for you to be sent to the courtyard at the foot of Leipeng Mountain. I was unaware of this beforehand. Please forgive my negligence!” Then he turned to the elder and said, “This Erke ignored the laws of Leipeng Mountain. Take him away and execute him with the harshest punishment!”

Upon hearing this, Erke’s body trembled violently. His face turned deathly pale as he cried out in terror, “Divine King, please spare my life!”

Yet no matter how loudly he screamed, Hebrei paid no attention. But just as the elder was about to take him away, suddenly a powerful force erupted from within Erke’s body. His body exploded, and terrifying energy spread in all directions throughout the hall.

The power generated by a supreme god’s body was indeed terrifying. However, in front of Leo and the others, this force was negligible and was instantly dispersed.

Hebrei sat in the hall, his expression dark as water. Erke had dared to ignore his orders and choose to die by exploding his own body! This was nothing short of a challenge to his divine authority!

“Execute all those involved!” Hebrei ordered sternly, his pressure spreading around.

“Yes, Divine King!” The elder trembled, his face turning pale. He hadn’t expected things to escalate to this extent. All those involved? Probably ten generations of Erke’s family would be implicated!

The elder sighed inwardly. Huang Long frowned but said nothing. Due to Erke’s actions, everyone at the banquet lost their mood for celebration.

As the full moon rose high, everyone dispersed. Hebrei arranged for a new courtyard for Huang Long.

“Master, shall we return to the Moer Mountains tomorrow?” Jerome asked.

Huang Long nodded. Since this matter was over, it was time to return to the Moer Mountains. But then, his brows furrowed again. During the banquet, the gaze of Divine King Leo had made him feel uncomfortable. Had Leo figured something out? Had he guessed that Huang Long was the one who had stolen the head of the Chaos Divine Dragon, Menglei Dragon?!

If that was the case, trouble was surely ahead.

Although his status was different now, and everyone on Tianlong Mountain would fawn over him when it came to crafting Holy King spiritual treasures, making Leo hesitate, in the face of treasures like the Netherworld Divine Tree and the Chaos Bell, Leo would likely kill anyone to seize them!
“It seems we need to find other parts of the Netherworld Divine Tree sooner!” Huang Long thought to himself.
Seeing his master deep in thought and not speaking, Jerome didn’t dare interrupt.
After the banquet, the clan leaders of various major families in the Chaos Divine Realm came to pay their respects. Naturally, Huang Long had no interest in meeting them and found excuses for Warner to turn them away one by one.
The next day, the sun shone brightly.
Huang Long bid farewell to Heibei, who tried to keep him, but when he saw Huang Long’s determination, he gave up.
Thus, Huang Long left Lei Peng Mountain with Jerome and the others. After his departure, Tianlong Mountain, Fengjin Mountain, Yinfu Mountain, Shuangyan Mountain, as well as the major families in the Chaos Divine Realm, also bid farewell to Lei Peng Mountain.
After leaving Lei Peng Mountain, Huang Long and the others headed back to the Kale Continent.
A month later, they reached the edge of the Saint El Continent, with Kale Continent in sight.
“Master, that’s Tianjie on the Saint El Continent ahead. Should we go take a look?” Jerome asked.
All three continents—Chaos Divine Realm, Kale, and Saint El—had Tianjie. Tianjie on Kale Continent was located in its center, while that on Saint El Continent was at its edge, where it met Kale Continent.
Huang Long thought for a moment before nodding. “Okay.”
Last time, he had bought a small branch of the Netherworld Divine Tree at the auction in Tianjie on Kale Continent. Maybe this time he could find other parts of it on Saint El Continent!
Of course, this was just what Huang Long thought.
He also knew that finding other parts of the Netherworld Divine Tree wouldn’t be that easy.
Hearing Huang Long agree, Jerome cheered and rushed toward Tianjie on Saint El Continent at full speed. Warner and the others shook their heads with smiles and followed closely behind.
It wasn’t long before they arrived at Tianjie on Saint El Continent.
On Kale Continent, they had used a teleportation array to reach Tianjie, but this time it was less troublesome. Huang Long rode on Jerome, breaking through the strong gale layers in the sky to enter Tianjie.
The gale layers had fierce winds, and ordinary high-ranking gods couldn’t pass through, but it posed no problem for them.
Walking on the streets of Tianjie on Saint El Continent, Jerome said with a smile, “Master, I wonder if anyone will call us country bumpkins this time?” He then chuckled.
Huang Long laughed. “Who knows.”

I remember when we were on the Heavenly Street of the Kale Continent, Yev and Rora from the Skarn family rode on their family’s beast carts, mocking people like Huang Long as country bumpkins. Just as they were talking, suddenly, more than a dozen beast carts rushed up from behind at incredible speed, forming a large convoy. Even before the carts arrived, a strong aura of fierce beasts rolled toward them. “Get out of the way, country bumpkins!” came a shrill cry from the lead cart. Huang Long turned to see those dozen-plus carts approaching. Frowning, he noticed that after the cry, a beautiful face appeared above the cart. Zerom was stunned—country bumpkins? Just as he was thinking this, they actually showed up. Seeing those menacing carts charging forward, Warner’s aura surged, and he pressed forward against them. Under Warner’s pressure, the fierce beasts on the carts trembled and suddenly stopped, looking terrified. The people inside the carts, caught off guard, tumbled forward. In an instant, the street was in chaos. After a while, the people on the carts finally regained their composure. The beautiful woman who had shouted from the lead cart leaped down, looking at Warner with both shock and anger. “We are from the Knightson family! How dare you stop us from moving forward!” The Knightson family? Warner and the others were stunned. The Knightson family was also a super-large family in the Chaos Divine Realm, even more powerful than the Sug family, the top family in the Kale Continent. It was the top family in the Saint El Continent, with influence second only to Silver Fox Mountain and Thunder Roc Mountain. Its founder was one of the supreme gods in this year’s Thunder Roc Mountain Armament Competition, extremely powerful—according to Huang Long, even stronger than Mori. “Let’s go,” Huang Long said calmly. Since they were from the Knightson family, a light punishment would be enough. Warner and the others replied respectfully. However, when the Knightson family members saw Huang Long leave, they thought he had become afraid upon hearing their family’s name and refused to let him go. “Stop right there!” the woman shouted angrily. “Do you think you can just leave after hurting someone from our Knightson family?!” With that, she dashed forward and blocked Huang Long and the others’ path. Soon, the rest of the Knightson family members also surrounded them. Of course, Warner, as the main god, had great aura, and the Knightson family members weren’t reckless either, so they had already sent messages to the family elders in charge of Heavenly Street. “Hurt someone from your Knightson family?” Huang Long glanced at the Knightson family members around him.

Just now, Warner’s momentum was only meant to intimidate the fierce beasts in the chariots; it wasn’t meant to hurt people. By saying this, this woman is clearly trying to deliberately frame Huang Long and the others for harming others!
