Chapter 62: General Yong and Luo Feng

I Eat Tomatoes:Today’s second chapter!

Inside the cave dwelling of the Zhu clan, Huyang City's most powerful native family, Zhu Que was astonished: "When the Food Kingdom forces clashed head-on with the City Lord's Mansion, Xue Yun, Yu Tian-Hu, and Yu Tian-Yi were all alive and well. Now that the conflict is over, Yu Tian-Hu and Yu Tian-Yi have been killed?"

"Their strength was comparable to mine," Zhu Que thought to herself. "Who in all of Huyang City could have killed them?"

At this moment, Zhu Que recalled two individuals.One was naturally the renowned General Yong! The other was the mysterious Lord Luohe.

"After the large-scale ice surge ended, the grand formation of Huyang City did not unleash its power again. If General Yong had acted, he would have likely used the formation... Therefore, the greatest possibility is that Lord Luohe made his move," Zhu Que secretly speculated.

Since Luo Feng arrived in Huyang City, he had acted rarely, and each time was a one-sided victory. Ying Cang attempted to assassinate Luo Feng, but instead lost his own life! Luo Feng didn't even pay attention to the Five Great Families. All of this made it difficult for various factions to gauge Luo Feng's true strength.

"There's a seventy percent chance that Lord Luohe acted. There's also a thirty percent chance that General Yong and his team were involved," Zhu Que thought. "If it was truly Lord Luohe who killed them, then Lord Luohe is far more terrifying than anticipated."

Inside a small eatery, Lord Wei was leisurely enjoying food and wine.

"Two of the Yu Tian siblings are dead." At this moment, Lord Wei thought of the impressive man she had met. "This doesn't seem like Yong Hu's style. It's probably Lord Luohe who made the move." Coming from the royal capital of Yu Kingdom, Lord Wei was very familiar with General Yong. "His origins are mysterious. Could he be from one of the two ancient kingdoms, or perhaps cultivated by some hidden power?" Lord Wei was well aware of how deep the waters ran in the Origin Continent.

At this moment, all forces across the city, including members of major faction branches, were shaken. There were few powerhouses in the entire Yu Kingdom capable of killing Yu Tian-Hu and Yu Tian-Yi within Huyang City. On the surface, within the city, only General Yong possessed such strength.

All core family members of the Five Great Families were discussing fervently. They were well-informed, yet they had heard no news of the City Lord's Mansion making a move.

"The City Lord's Mansion did not act." As the Deputy City Lord, Mo Li-Meng naturally knew this. "So, the greatest possibility is that Lord Luohe made the move."

"He and Yan Tian-Yan were close friends. With Yan Tian-Yan's death, Lord Luohe acted in rage." Mo Li-Meng did not hesitate; he immediately took out his communication token and contacted Luo Feng.

"Brother Luohe," Mo Li-Meng directly asked, "Were the Yu Tian-Hu siblings killed by you?"

"It was me," Luo Feng replied. "Does your City Lord's Mansion have any thoughts on this?"

Mo Li-Meng's heart trembled.

It really was Luohe! His father, Commander Mo Li-Xiao, despite leading the army and using Huyang City's grand formation, only had an advantage against Yu Tian-Hu but couldn't truly overpower him. This Lord Luohe, by himself, silently killed the Yu Tian-Hu siblings! This strength was truly terrifying!

"Brother Luohe, do you want to kill Xue Yun?" Mo Li-Meng pressed. "I'm searching for him throughout the city, but unfortunately, I can't find him," Luo Feng replied. "Do you have a way to locate him?"

"I need to report to the City Lord's Mansion. Please wait for my news." Mo Li-Meng didn't dare to say more. The Causal Tracking Token was currently the only way to find Lord Xue Yun, and he didn't have the authority to give it directly to Luo Feng.

"What I need most right now is Xue Yun's location," Luo Feng replied.

"As soon as I have any news, I will immediately inform Brother Luohe." Mo Li-Meng became more humble. General Yong, even with the aid of Huyang City's grand formation, had allowed Lord Xue Yun to escape, yet Lord Luohe dared to go after him directly. This level of confidence made Mo Li-Meng's heart tremble just thinking about it.

Luo Feng, piloting his flying vessel, gained a glimmer of hope from Mo Li-Meng's message. "The City Lord's Mansion might have some methods." Luo Feng didn't fully rely on Mo Li-Meng's side; he looked distantly ahead.

"Master, President Zan Yun is in that cave dwelling. I can pinpoint his aura," Mo Luo-Sa confirmed with certainty.

"Good," Luo Feng nodded slightly.

President Zan Yun had never publicly disclosed the ordinary cave dwelling ahead. Knowing that Yu Tian-Hu and Yu Tian-Yi were dead, he immediately hid inside this cave dwelling. He was extremely nervous at this moment.

"You don't even know? You're members of the Five Great Families, and you don't know who killed Yu Tian-Hu and Yu Tian-Yi?" President Zan Yun's message was urgent. "When you ordered me to do things, I never refused, no matter how dirty. Now you must help me!" But the communication from the other side was directly cut off.

"I knew these useless members of the Five Great Families couldn't be relied upon in crucial moments," President Zan Yun said, extremely nervous. "Who exactly killed Yu Tian-Hu? Will I be implicated?" "Xue Yun has also cut off communication and isn't contacting me at all."

"When disaster strikes, everyone flees for themselves! I'll seize the opportunity to leave the city when countless cultivators enter and exit during the day," President Zan Yun thought to himself. He was feeling a bit flustered, sensing that something was wrong this time.

President Zan Yun looked up in terror, only to see surging chaotic energy shattering the small building he was in, and tearing through the grand formation. The chaotic energy spread everywhere, directly engulfing him.

"No, it's Lord Luohe!" A chill ran through President Zan Yun's heart. "It seems Luohe was the one who killed Yu Tian-Hu and Yu Tian-Yi."

President Zan Yun couldn't struggle at all. He was swept out by the chaotic energy. He saw a flying vessel descend from the night sky, and Luo Feng and his servant Mo Luo-Sa emerged from it.

Behind Luo Feng, six pairs of golden wings unfolded, controlling the chaotic currents.

"Lord Luohe, you've come!" President Zan Yun, enveloped and restrained, spoke ingratiatingly. "If you have anything, just give an order; there's no need for you to come in person."

"I ask you, where is Xue Yun?" Luo Feng asked.

President Zan Yun quickly shook his head and said, "I have no contact with him."

"The Food Kingdom's forces in Huyang City operate in both open and hidden ways. On the surface, you, President Zan Yun, are in control, while Xue Yun controls them secretly," Luo Feng said, looking at him. "This is an open secret in Huyang City. Denying it to me is pointless."

"Yes, I serve the Marquis," President Zan Yun said candidly. "But I've been in Huyang City for so long, and Lord Xue Yun has never even met me. It was only when Yan Tian-Yan exposed his identity this time that I learned he was Sang Shui-Yun. He has always been wary of me, and now he's cut off all communication. I truly can't contact him."

"Then you're useless now," Luohe shook his head.

The chaotic energy instantly permeated his divine body, shattering his True God heart. At the moment of death, President Zan Yun was filled with regret.

I knew it wouldn't be safe to accept the mission and come to a small city in the enemy country, Yu Kingdom. But for the sake of merit, for the resources bestowed by the Marquis, I still came. I had always been extremely careful, even secretly befriending some members of the Five Great Families, just to avoid being killed. The Five Great Families had indeed tolerated me; after all, if President Zan Yun were killed, another would simply take over intelligence. But this time, I finally fell. Lord Luohe, fueled by the deaths of billions of beings and his good friend Yan Tian-Yan, was brimming with killing intent and crushed me with a casual flick of his hand.

"Whoosh," Luohe waved his hand and collected the corpse.

"Master, what do we do now? Xue Yun is too cautious; we can't find any trace of him," Mo Luo-Sa said. "Neither I nor Master Luohe lack the confidence to kill Xue Yun. But the only problem is how to find him."

"The few leaders of the Food Kingdom's forces in the city—Yu Tian-Hu, Yu Tian-Yi, and even President Zan Yun, who was in charge of intelligence—none of them could be contacted by him," Luohe shook his head. "Now, I can only hope for good news from the City Lord's Mansion. Otherwise, killing Xue Yun... won't be something that can be resolved quickly."

Inside the City Lord's Mansion.The Huyang City Lord, Commander Mo Li-Xiao, the white-haired elder, Lord Wei, and Mo Li-Meng—all five of them were gathered here.

"The one who killed Yu Tian-Hu and Yu Tian-Yi was actually Lord Luohe?" Lord Wei exclaimed in surprise. "Even I, without using Huyang City's grand formation, would not dare to say for certain that I could kill the Yu Tian-Hu siblings, even if it were one against two."

"He is still pursuing Xue Yun's whereabouts," Mo Li-Xiao said. "To dare to continue the pursuit, knowing Xue Yun's strength, shows his confidence."

"Inside the city, you couldn't do anything to Xue Yun. Yet he dares to pursue him... Is he arrogant, or is his strength truly above yours?" Lord Wei's mood was complex; he was also very confident and proud. After all, he could cultivate the Law path and achieve an infinite divine body! Guided by a God King, he had now even comprehended Chaos Realm techniques; his talent was evident. Among all Eternal True Gods in the entire Yu Kingdom, those stronger than him were few and far between.

"Given that he already killed the Yu Tian-Hu siblings, it shouldn't be arrogance," the white-haired elder said.

"No wonder he didn't put your City Lord's Mansion in his eyes before," Lord Wei chuckled. "With his true strength, even if all ten major legions were deployed and Huyang City's grand formation was used... they wouldn't be able to threaten him."

The Huyang City Lord said, "Ying Cang tried to assassinate him and died there instead. That's when we knew he wasn't someone to provoke."

"Mo Li-Meng, quickly contact Lord Luohe," Lord Wei said. "It's just one Causal Tracking Token. You couldn't invite such a powerful individual before. Since he's taken the initiative to act, we must seize this opportunity!"

"Contact him," Mo Li-Xiao ordered.

The few of them had no hesitation. Lord Luohe had already killed the Yu Tian-Hu siblings, making him completely trustworthy.

"Alright," Mo Li-Meng nodded.

"Brother Luohe, our City Lord's Mansion has a Causal Tracking Token left by Yan Tian-Yan. We can use it to pinpoint Xue Yun's location," Mo Li-Meng communicated. "Should I send it to your cave dwelling now?"

"I'll come to the City Lord's Mansion now. Let's meet outside the mansion gate." Luo Feng was currently piloting his vessel, heading straight for the City Lord's Mansion with Mo Luo-Sa.

Outside the City Lord's Mansion gate.An invisible domain spread out; ordinary cultivators couldn't perceive it. Five figures stood there: the Huyang City Lord, Mo Li-Xiao, the white-haired elder, Lord Wei, and Mo Li-Meng. They were all waiting for Luohe's arrival.

"I haven't met Lord Luohe yet," Lord Wei said, quite curious about him.

"Lord Luohe is quite benevolent; he only acts ruthlessly when provoked," Mo Li-Meng said from the side.

"Such power combined with benevolence is rare," Lord Wei remarked approvingly.

A flying vessel descended from the night sky. Luohe and his servant Mo Luo-Sa flew out from it, and Luohe retracted the vessel.

"Brother Luohe, this is Lord Wei," Mo Li-Meng introduced.

Luohe recognized everyone else present but indeed hadn't met Lord Wei. "I hear Lord Luohe intends to pursue Xue Yun," Lord Wei chuckled. "Do you have confidence?"

"A sliver of confidence," Luohe said.

At these words, Lord Wei and the other four were secretly astonished. To claim even a sliver of confidence without having engaged in battle showed immense self-assurance.

"Do you need my help?" Lord Wei asked. "No, I'm used to acting alone," Luohe replied. "I'm impressed," Lord Wei said, looking at Luohe with admiration. "I truly didn't expect such a powerful individual like Lord Luohe to exist within our Yu Kingdom. After this matter, I presume all four God Kings will send their subordinates to invite Lord Luohe. Such a powerhouse, even if he doesn't become a Chaos Master, would still be a great general."

"Do you have the Causal Tracking Token?" Luohe, however, didn't want to chat much.

"That was left to the City Lord's Mansion by Yan Tian-Yan, hoping the City Lord's Mansion could send sufficient forces to pursue Xue Yun," Mo Li-Xiao said from the side. "With the Causal Tracking Token, Xue Yun's location can be pinpointed at any time."

"If you succeed in killing Xue Yun, that's fine. But if you fail, Brother Luohe, please return the Causal Tracking Token," the Huyang City Lord said, handing a strange token to Luohe.

"Understood," Luohe replied, taking it. He said "a sliver of confidence" only because he didn't want to be too sensational. With him and Mo Luo-Sa working together, and having the "Elemental Array Technique," it would be a disgrace if Xue Yun still managed to escape.

"Buzz." Luohe's divine power infused the Causal Tracking Token, and he immediately sensed a distant location outside the city—that was the target.

"He really went outside the city," Luohe said, looking at the five individuals before him. "Gentlemen, I will now go pursue Xue Yun. I bid you farewell."

The Huyang City Lord and the other five watched as Luohe and Mo Luo-Sa, riding their flying vessel, quickly disappeared into the night sky.

"Do you think Luohe will succeed?" the Huyang City Lord asked. "I think there's a significant chance," Lord Wei replied. "Did you notice? For something as important as pursuing Xue Yun, Luohe is still bringing his servant."

"That's right, his servant is merely a Void True God. He'd only be a burden, so why bring him?" Mo Li-Meng realized, surprised.

Lord Wei nodded: "I've heard that when some major forces on the Origin Continent cultivate elites, they often send a Dao Protector to ensure their safety. This Lord Luohe, with his master-servant dynamic, mysterious origins, and formidable strength, might just come from one of those major forces."

The Huyang City Lord, Mo Li-Xiao, and the other three were startled. "Of course, this is just my speculation. Regardless of whether it's right or wrong, you must not speak of it outside, lest you disrupt the cultivation journey of such an existence," Lord Wei said.

Regardless of whether it was right or wrong, Lord Luohe's formidable power made them wary and their hearts tremble.

In the dead of night, a flying vessel flew out through Huyang City's east gate.

Luohe gazed northeast, able to remotely pinpoint the target's location using the Causal Tracking Token.

"Brother Yan, I didn't expect to eventually team up with you to pursue Xue Yun," Luohe said, looking at the Causal Tracking Token in his hand. The flying vessel then cut through the void, heading northeast.
