Chapter 900: The World Under the King’s Rule

The universe is vast, yet life-bearing planets are relatively scarce, scattered throughout the boundless void. Now, however, all life-sustaining territories are in resonance.

In a single day, two "Heaven-Reflecting" level experts perished, sending shivers through the star sea.

On many altars, the statues of the two deities exploded, and their millstone-sized energy celestial bodies fell, accompanied by a rain of blood.

Across the universe, millions of races, both powerful and weak, felt a chilling sensation today. Life seemed incredibly fragile; if even "Heaven-Reflecting" level giants could be summarily executed, what safety could there be?

"Those who kill will always be killed. In their time, the Mechanical Vajra and the Corpse Ancestor were incredibly tyrannical, commanding the star field, with none daring to disobey. They would often exterminate other races and destroy planets. Yet, no matter how glorious or powerful you are, there will always be a day when you age and are cut down. This is merely a cycle."

Silence was naturally followed by uproar.

Discussions raged everywhere as people speculated about the identity of the white-clad woman. No one had seen her true face; everything captured near the Great Abyss was indistinct.

The entire star field buzzed with discussion.

Chu Feng emerged from the darkness, gazing at the Great Abyss. Finally, he recklessly advanced, approaching the dark area.

Others couldn't see clearly, but he saw distinctly. Through his Fiery Golden Eyes, he saw the woman's true face, identical to Yaoyao. This left him deeply unsettled and then momentarily lost in thought.

"Extra! Extra! The culprit behind the shocking tragedy is indeed the Great Demon Chu Feng! Come and see, everyone near the Great Abyss has fled, and only Chu Feng has returned, showing no fear of that premier forbidden zone!"

The Black Blood platform, possessing extraordinary capabilities, had been monitoring the area and instantly detected Chu Feng's presence, capturing his image.

"My god, Great Demon Chu Feng is indeed the mastermind! He knows that woman! Look at what he's saying to the Great Abyss; he's at the edge, clearly conversing! What a shame, we can't capture his lip movements."

"This is... murder! A premeditated slaughter of elites from various races! Those Saints were immobilized and couldn't move after being restrained, then killed by him. Even two Heaven-Reflecting level experts perished, all part of his scheme!"

People across the universe exclaimed in shock.

Many were chilled to the bone. At first, most had thought the white-clad woman's appearance was an accident, but now they realized it might not be a coincidence.

Chu Feng was unaware of the unfolding situation, merely mumbling, "Immortaless, I have no intention of disturbing you, but I am confused and wish to seek your guidance."

He dared not be presumptuous, for he could tell that the woman's eyes were dull and slightly vacant. Others hadn't discovered the truth, but he saw it clearly.

However, no one in the Great Abyss paid him any attention or responded. Chu Feng continued to murmur to himself, called out a few more times, and then decisively turned and left.

Even knowing that this woman was connected to Yaoyao, likely the ancient Yaoyao's lost physical body, he still didn't dare to be overly casual.

While it was true he had a relationship with Yaoyao, he didn't know this white-clad woman. If he annoyed her, he'd likely be slapped to death!

"Heaven-Reaching Express!"

This time, Chu Feng left and headed straight into the star sea.

Sand Sea Star, an arid planet, had a sparse human population and was very desolate.

However, when Chu Feng appeared there, it immediately caused a sensation. Countless people flocked to the area, many having traveled from outside the domain.

There was no knowing how many wanted to observe the Great Demon Chu Feng's demeanor up close, and even more wanted to personally ask him about his relationship with the white-clad woman from the Great Abyss and her true identity.

Of course, no one dared to be presumptuous, fearing being annihilated. Chu Feng's formidable reputation was already established; the entire universe knew of his... ferocity.

Deserts covered the land, with very few oases.

In an oasis, Chu Feng calmly stated, "The white-clad Immortaless's identity is exceptionally noble. There's no harm in telling you: she is from the Yang Realm!"

All races were stunned by him; the news was too shocking.

"She entered our universe, and I was the first person she encountered. She believed my talent was world-shattering, rare even in the Yang Realm, and felt a destined connection with me. She told me that when she leaves, she will take me with her, and in the meantime, I can seek her out for any difficulties."

Chu Feng maintained a very nonchalant demeanor.

"This script is wrong!" In another part of the star sea, the Big Black Ox, Old Donkey, and others stared blankly. They had never heard of such a backup plan. Was the white-clad woman a visitor from the Yang Realm?

The Yellow Ox said, "You are too naive!"

It currently looked about four or five years old, with golden hair, a beautiful face, long eyelashes, and big blinking eyes, appearing more innocent than anyone else. Yet, it lectured others about being naive, causing a group of great demons to twitch in exasperation.

The Yellow Ox pouted, "He's just a big con artist. Can you believe anything he says? I suspect he doesn't even know who that mysterious female expert is. Now he's just spouting nonsense!"

"It's not that we're too naive; it's that Chu Feng, that scoundrel, has too many tricks up his sleeve!" Ouyang Feng grumbled.

They were also watching the live broadcast and quickly confirmed that Chu Feng was lying; no one understood the Great Demon Chu Feng better than they did.

However, others didn't know Chu Feng. For instance, a man and a woman looked solemn. They exuded a strong Yang energy, and although they had previously disdained Chu Feng when seeing him on the Banished Immortal Star, their attitudes had changed.

But now, their expressions were increasingly serious, as they pondered and investigated which lineage Yaoyao truly came from in the Yang Realm!

These two had been completely fooled. They became extremely serious, remaining silent for most of the day. The more they thought about it, the more alarmed they became, and the more they deliberated, the less they dared to act presumptuously in this universe.

The two who had originally arrived full of vigor now looked utterly dejected, their spirits low and their will depressed.

At this point, what left the Big Black Ox, Old Donkey, and others speechless was that after piquing everyone's curiosity, Chu Feng immediately announced a "paid Q&A session." Anyone wishing to inquire about the secrets would have to pay astronomical sums of cosmic currency.

Additionally, he forbade platforms like Black Blood Platform and Primeval Beast Platform from live-streaming anything about him unless they paid an exorbitant appearance fee.

"This con artist is utterly shameless! Everyone else craves opportunities to appear, but he's causing a scene!"

Some platforms decisively rejected his outrageous demands!

However, Black Blood Platform and Primeval Beast Platform were willing to be extorted, paying astronomical sums for the sole two interviews with him.

"I hereby solemnly declare that the benevolent and pure-hearted King Chu is very angry, and the consequences will be severe. I am about to embark on a campaign against the Corpse Race, Xilin Race, Mechanical Race, Heavenly God Race, and others. You can all await my boundless wrath!"

This single announcement caused a massive sensation. People across the universe realized that the demon's revenge was about to begin, and the matter was far from over!

Killing multiple Saints and luring two Heaven-Reflecting level experts to their deaths had apparently only been a prelude; the true storm of blood was yet to come!

Afterward, other platforms regretted their decision. The release of this information caused an explosion of activity on Black Blood Platform and Primeval Beast Platform, with so many users rushing in that they nearly crashed.

With this surge in traffic and attention, the two platforms made a fortune.

Other platforms were filled with regret, suddenly realizing their miscalculation. With the Great Demon Chu Feng currently at the center of attention, every action he took became a hot topic. How could they give up such a "traffic superstar"?

"Chu Feng, we are willing to accept your terms for paid interviews and live broadcasts!" Some platforms began to re-contact him.

"Address me as King Chu!" Chu Feng corrected.

Damn it!

A group of people wanted to punch him. This guy was getting arrogant, but they truly dared not offend him. This fellow had killed nineteen Saints and even two Heaven-Reflecting level experts. He was too bizarre and terrifying.

However, people believed that the title "Demon King" suited him better.

Nevertheless, everyone now had to begrudgingly call him King Chu and negotiate with him, hoping to obtain permission for interviews and live broadcasts.

"Hmm, alright. First, give me a few dozen Saint-level Purple Crystal Heavenly Thunder orbs. As for cosmic currency, I don't need it; it's non-negotiable!"

This exorbitant pricing made some platforms want to flip tables. Did he really think Saint-level Purple Crystal Heavenly Thunder orbs grew on trees? If they could produce that many at once, they'd use them to eliminate him first!

After some negotiation, Chu Feng insisted on a minimum of ten orbs!

Everyone felt dizzy. Just for one interview, they had to pay such a price, equivalent to ten strikes from a Saint!

Nevertheless, in the end, some agreed.

"Hmm, very good. You all have excellent foresight. Now I announce that I will set out immediately. The first stop is the Underworld Race!" Chu Feng declared, making the strongest statement since Earth's revival!

His words carried a scent of blood; he was about to launch an active campaign of conquest!

The platforms that paid for the ten Saint-level Purple Crystal Heavenly Thunder orbs immediately felt it was worth it. The release of this news caused the number of followers on their platforms to skyrocket.

Some rejoiced, while others despaired.

At this moment, the entire Underworld Race felt as if a formidable enemy was upon them. The whole race was extremely tense; Great Demon Chu Feng was coming to kill, and blood would surely flow like rivers here.

"What are you panicking about? What is there to fear? Our race has existed for millennia, enduring countless storms since ancient times. A mere Half-Saint thinks he can annihilate us? What a joke!"

Within the Underworld Race, an elder reprimanded them.

However, this did little to ease the oppressive atmosphere. After the battle at the Great Abyss, Chu Feng's massacre of Saints from various races had already deeply ingrained fear in everyone's hearts, making them all wary.

"Why isn't he going to the Corpse Race or Mechanical Race first? Both of those races deployed Heaven-Reflecting level experts. Or he could go to the Heavenly God Race or Xilin Race instead; those two races killed more people than us in ancient times and are even more sinister!"

Someone within the Underworld Race complained, expressing their dissatisfaction.

At this moment, the emotions of all races in the star field were stirred up. Everyone watched intently, eager to see how Chu Feng would step into the Underworld Race for revenge; the entire world was watching.

"Chu Feng, King Chu, we are also willing to provide ten Saint-level Purple Crystal Heavenly Thunder orbs, on the condition that you allow us to broadcast the entire battle process live from the scene!"

More platforms approached him, and not just one, all with extremely sincere attitudes.

"It's a bit late. If you want to broadcast, each platform must provide at least fifteen orbs!"

"You..."

The managers of those platforms turned grim-faced with anger; this was blatant price gouging. However, in the end, they held their noses and conceded, for they could imagine how explosive the upcoming battles would be, guaranteed to attract the attention of the entire universe.

After all, the Great Demon Chu Feng was now reigning supreme and actively campaigning, intending to attack the top-tier great sects. Any cultivator living in this universe was bound to pay close attention!

There was no doubt that any platform involved would explode in popularity.

"Are there any other platforms wanting to join? Don't walk by and miss out! My final battle in the Underworld Universe is about to begin. From now on, I will enter the Yang Realm. This is a farewell battle. If you miss this campaign, you will regret it for eons. After long ages pass, you will realize you missed the battle spectacle of the greatest person of all time. One missed opportunity, a thousand epochs of tears."

On the eve of a major war, which should have been a very solemn and tense occasion, he brazenly acted like a second-hand dealer, hawking his wares and alleviating the oppressive atmosphere, leaving all platforms speechless.

"Alright, we'll join in too!"

"Our platform is also willing to live-stream!"

More platforms wanted to join.

"Hmm, you're a bit late. How about this: you'll first be responsible for opening a super wormhole for me to send me to the battlefield!"

Some people wanted to curse him. *He* was going to war, not them. He even expected others to pay cosmic currency and open paths for him just to reach the battlefield. Did he have no shame?

"You're not going to make us responsible for opening super wormholes to all battlefields, are you?" someone quietly asked.

Chu Feng nodded seriously and said, "That's inevitable. Hmm, how about this: I'll be responsible for telling the Heaven-Reaching Wormhole Company to open them, and you'll be responsible for paying the bill!"

All major platforms: "!!!"

Everyone cursed this black-hearted demon, whose greed was insatiable. Interviews were paid, live broadcasts cost cosmic currency, and even his journey to the battlefield required payment!

But in the end, they all tolerated it, holding their noses and agreeing to pay.

Shortly after, the great war erupted, shocking the universe.

"My god! That con artist didn't go to the Underworld Race! He nearly leveled the Xilin Race, wiping out eight divisions of their army in one go, directly carpet-bombing them with Saint-level Purple Crystal Heavenly Thunder orbs!"

The moment this news broke, it shook the universe.

The Xilin Race originally had thirteen divisions, a structure they had maintained. Yet, in just one battle today, Chu Feng wiped out eight of them?!

"You said you'd go to the Underworld Race first, Great Demon Chu Feng, you tricked me!" someone clamored in the star sea.

"Don't worry, the next stop is the Underworld Race!" Chu Feng responded, finding time amidst his actions, which left many bewildered. His audacity was truly extraordinary; he even had the energy to pay attention to external developments!

Upon hearing these words, the entire Underworld Race wanted to curse him. *Damn it*, why are you always targeting us?!
