"Third Senior Brother, I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly," Yan Emperor murmured as Qin Hao stepped into the palace.
He already knew the news of Luo Feng receiving Zuo Shanke's legacy and being taken as his disciple, but he didn't expect his Third Senior Brother to choose this time to come to him.
Originally, when Luo Feng became Undying, he guessed that Luo Feng might come to him very soon. However, many years passed, and Luo Feng never made a move. Yan Emperor even thought his Third Senior Brother was sensible and chose to back down, which made him somewhat happy.
However, he didn't expect that just after he sent the Yan God Clan members to the Outside Territory Battlefield to cause some trouble for the Human Race, his Third Senior Brother would appear in the Yan God Mystic Realm, and even silently appear in his palace.
"It seems this Third Senior Brother is not simple. But why are you so deeply entangled with the Human Race? You became Zhen Yan's disciple, Primordial Chaos City Lord's disciple, and now you're even standing up for the Human Race. Do you think that just by becoming Undying, there's no way to deal with you, and that you're truly immortal?"
Yan Emperor quickly understood the reason for Luo Feng's arrival. He didn't come to demand the Jie Jia upon becoming Undying, but chose the moment he dispatched troops to the Outside Territory Battlefield. His purpose was very clear: to put him in a difficult position and cause him some trouble.
As for the Jie Jia, Yan Emperor didn't believe his Third Senior Brother would dare to directly demand it from him.
"A supreme treasure like the Jie Jia can only be possessed by the strong. Without the command of Teacher Zuo Shanke, you probably have no hope of ever getting the Jie Jia," Yan Emperor said with a cold laugh.
However, upon thinking of Zuo Shanke, Yan Emperor's divine body trembled slightly. The Original Soul, Yan God Halberd, and Jie Jia in his possession were all given to him by Zuo Shanke. It was precisely these three supreme treasures that allowed him to face even powerhouses like Primordial Chaos City Lord and Great Axe Founder without any fear.
Back then, he left the Human Race without scruples, relying on these three supreme treasures. The existence of these three supreme treasures meant that even a Universe Lord at the peak could only suppress him, but not kill him.
However, as Zuo Shanke's disciple, he knew even more about Zuo Shanke's mysterious methods. With endless tricks, anyone in the universe who dared to provoke him ultimately suffered greatly. Even after becoming a Universe Lord, Yan Emperor still couldn't see through his teacher. He was filled with apprehension, even fear, towards this teacher.
It was precisely because of this that even though he knew the purpose of Luo Feng's visit, he didn't dare to directly attack Luo Feng, only daring to make things difficult for Luo Feng with his aura.
However, although Yan Emperor's aura was powerful, it put no pressure on the strong-willed Luo Feng. Luo Feng's body was enveloped in divine power, forming a huge phantom of a ferocious beast, which directly swept away the surrounding aura.
Luo Feng, with firm steps, ascended the stairs, walking step by step towards the palace entrance, passing through the grand gate, and entering the palace. Looking at the enormous Yan Emperor before him, Qin Hao was also aware of his Senior Brother's advantage in terms of divine body.
"This aura, the gene level should be close to the perfect gene level, right?" Luo Feng guessed in his heart. The only perfect gene level he had encountered was Qin Hao, but Yan Emperor's aura was clearly much weaker than Qin Hao's, yet much stronger than his Golden-Horned Beast's 6400 times gene level. So, it should be not far from the perfect gene level.
"Second Senior Brother, we finally meet. This junior came in a hurry this time and didn't notify Senior Brother in advance, which is quite an intrusion," Luo Feng said to Yan Emperor with a slight smile.
Yan Emperor looked at Luo Feng's smile, his expression growing colder. Luo Feng's sudden arrival had completely thwarted all his plans. Originally, by locking down the space within several hundred light-years, it would have taken Luo Feng at least several hundred years to reach him.
Furthermore, with some Universe Overlords he had gathered, it was possible he could directly keep his Third Senior Brother here. Then, no one would come to him for the Jie Jia. And doing so, even his teacher Zuo Shanke wouldn't be able to say anything.
After all, it was Luo Feng's own lack of strength, and it had nothing to do with him.
"I didn't expect Third Senior Brother to come so quickly. I've also spoken with Putuo, and Teacher Zuo Shanke has also instructed me on some matters. Regarding you... I have also deliberately collected some information. You are indeed a rare genius in the Human Race today, but you should also know that with your cultivation, you will soon step into Universe Exalt, and even become a Universe Lord. Your Eldest Senior Brother and I... are waiting for this day."
Yan Emperor spoke to Qin Hao from a high position, his tone filled with arrogance, looking down from above, as if he were not speaking to his Junior Brother, but a junior.
"I will naturally work hard. Since Teacher has already spoken to Second Senior Brother, then please hand over the Jie Jia to me," Luo Feng said directly to Yan Emperor without any pretense.
If it were just a command from Teacher Zuo Shanke, Luo Feng would still hesitate a bit, after all, he was facing a Universe Lord. However, with the trump card left by Qin Hao, Luo Feng became even more confident. Compared to Zuo Shanke, Luo Feng still trusted Qin Hao more.
"The Jie Jia is a supreme treasure in the vast universe. Its power is boundless. You are only Undying now, too weak to unleash much of its power. It's even very possible that the Jie Jia could be lost in your hands. I think, for the sake of the Jie Jia, and for your own sake, Junior Brother, you should cultivate more, improve your strength, and after stepping into Universe Exalt, it won't be too late to take the Jie Jia. Senior Brother will temporarily keep the Jie Jia for you and will deliver it directly to you once you become a Universe Exalt."
Yan Emperor's face was filled with a hypocritical smile. Although Luo Feng became Zuo Shanke's disciple through a life-and-death inheritance, it was precisely because of this that Yan Emperor had a natural repulsion towards Qin Hao. Luo Feng not only gained ownership of the Star Tower but was also to be given the Jie Jia.
The more Zuo Shanke valued Luo Feng, the more Yan Emperor disliked Luo Feng. Back then, Zuo Shanke had cultivated him with all his might, and he was also one of the top geniuses in the Primordial Universe, quickly becoming a Universe Lord.
However, at some unknown point, his teacher had given up on him. He had fully developed Earth, waiting for a new inheritor to appear, waiting for a genius who could inherit from him.
It was precisely this genius who made Zuo Shanke abandon him. It caused his cultivation to stagnate after entering Universe Lord, and he had not made much breakthrough to this day.
In his opinion, everything Luo Feng was now receiving from Zuo Shanke should have originally belonged to him. All of this was taken away because of Luo Feng. He could have been a peak Universe Lord, a genius who could have become the Universe Strongest.
