Chapter 445: Discussion at the Teahouse |
“Those eyes.”
Soon, someone noticed Li Tengfei’s twin pupils and shouted in surprise.
The twin pupils were too special. Just by looking at them, it was as if one was sucked into a layered space and imprisoned by them.
The sense of powerlessness they felt showed how terrifying the power contained in the twin pupils was.
“The South Palace Sect’s annual sacrifice is to worship the twin pupils on a stone tablet. It has only been two days since the incident at the South Palace Source Ore Workshop…”
Those who knew more about the South Palace Sect immediately recognized the twin pupils.
As more and more people saw it with their own eyes, the surroundings of the city ruler’s residence became even more chaotic.
Many people did not dare to confirm it verbally, but in their hearts, they were already certain that the incident at the South Palace Source Ore Workshop was probably related to the city ruler.
Could one fuse multiple pairs of Heavenly Eyes to create a twin pupil?
However, bloodlines were not a problem most of the time. They only needed to capture the people from the South Palace Sect who were traveling outside. The source ore shop was supported by a large faction, so it was impossible for them to all hide away and not leave their homes.
In other words, the appearance of Li Tengfei’s twin pupils had unknowingly placed the South Palace Sect in a dangerous situation.
Once it was proven that the method of fusing multiple pairs of Heavenly Eyes to create the twin pupils could be replicated, the South Palace Sect might even be in danger of being wiped out.
Under the burning gazes of the crowd, “One won’t do. It’s best if all of you attack together,” Li Tengfei’s gaze narrowed as he said calmly.
This was his decision after discussing it with his father, Li Zhentian. In order to have enough strength to participate in the fight for the true dragon’s corpse, he had to forcefully make himself an invincible opponent.
This started from suppressing geniuses of the same generation and gradually evolved defeating those in the level above at the jade star realm, and finally reaching Li Zhentian’s current level.
Finally, he would rely on the power of the twin pupils bloodline to fight for the true dragon’s corpse.
In fact, after being bathed in the true dragon’s blood, the only flaw of the twin pupils bloodline would be made up for, which was that the physical aspect was not as outstanding as the spiritual aspect.
At that time, the true ruler of the Hidden Dragon Galaxy, the territorial lord, might also usher in a new era where the younger generation replaced the old.
This was the confidence of someone with the twin pupil bloodline.
“You want to fight so many of us alone? We’re all at the star condensation realm. Even those publicly acknowledged geniuses of the Hidden Dragon Galaxy probably won’t dare to say such arrogant words.”
A man in a long robe sneered. He held a three-foot-long sword in his hand, and a sword aura that surged through the galaxy appeared in his eyes. He had comprehended the sword to an extremely deep level.
As soon as he finished speaking, “Let’s try it out…”
Before he could finish speaking, countless poisonous snakes with white light in their mouths appeared around him.
The snakeman from the feathered snake clan had launched a sneak attack. These poisonous snakes seemed to have appeared out of thin air extremely suddenly. The timing was perfect, and even the other geniuses who were considered to be on the same side could not react in time.
“Swish, swish, swish…”
The white light from the snakes pierced into his body.
Every drop of venom could cause a disaster that could engulf an ordinary planet and create a disaster that could destroy the entire world.
Furthermore, the venom contained in the white light in each snake’s mouth was different.
Usually, if the inner world was attacked by multiple such poisonous snakes and their venom entered the inner world, it could cause the inner world to collapse in a few seconds.
And the situation was exactly like that.
At this moment, Li Tengfei’s entire body was instantly covered in all kinds of strange colors. At the same time, cracks could be seen everywhere.
This was a sign that the venom from the poisonous snakes had hit the inner world in his body.
“Gasp! This person with the twin pupil doesn’t seem to be too strong.”
Around the city ruler’s residence, countless gazes witnessed the scene of Li Tengfei being hit and how he was about to be killed by the venom in the blink of an eye.
This did not match everyone’s understanding of the legend of those with the twin pupil bloodline.
However, he did not show any panic on his face.

“So many people were defeated just like that?”
At this moment, under the influence of the outcome of the battle in the city ruler’s residence, the Heaven Suppressing City seemed to have fallen silent. They could not believe it.
It had to be known that the South Palace Sect’s Heavenly Eye was already a very powerful bloodline power, but it had never displayed a crushing power like this.
“The situation in the south mountain range is about to change!”
Thinking about it, the city ruler was naturally paving the way for Li Tengfei.
In the first battle, he had crushed a group of geniuses. Next, it would be the entire south mountain range. Perhaps other than those powerful elders who rarely appeared in the world, ordinary experts at the jade star realm might not be able to stop the power of his twin pupils.
As for those elders, with Li Zhentian’s support, it was very difficult for them to set up a trap for him. It could be said that it was very difficult to stop his rise.
At this moment, Li Zhentian’s voice suddenly echoed throughout Heaven Suppressing City. “From tomorrow onwards, half of the additional profit collected by all the source ore shops will be used as tax for the development of the Heaven Suppressing City.”
Choosing to say it at this moment was equivalent to dropping a bomb.
The Heaven Suppressing City instantly became noisy. The reason was that everyone gradually understood the purpose of the city ruler’s banquet. It could be said that it was all connected.
First, he would use the excuse of holding a banquet to give the public an explanation. Then, he would pave the way for the appearance of the person with the twin pupils bloodline, Li Tengfei. Finally, he would force the remaining many source ore shops in the city to bend to his will.
“Brother, no large city in the abandoned world has ever done this. Isn’t this forcing the source ore shops to leave Heaven Suppressing City?”
The middle-aged man turned to Chen Yiming in confusion.
He could not understand why he had forced them into such a situation. To the source ore shops, 10% of the profits was already a lot. There was no difference between snatching half of the profits and robbing them directly.
It had to be known that in the past, the source ore shops would only agree to stay in a large city after being given countless benefits. Now that they were taking half of the profits, none of the shops would want to stay.
“I think the ruler of Heaven Suppressing City is just one of the factions in the Infinite Island Group. Since he dares to do this, the other large cities in the vicinity will probably…” Chen Yiming replied casually.
The factions from the Infinite Island Group had launched a surprise attack on the team from the Golden Sword Source Ore Workshop in the Heaven Suppressing City. Gao Shuai had traveled to the south mountain range and roped in many factions related to the source ore shops to put up a resistance.
Now that it was the city ruler’s turn to cause trouble, it was obvious that the conflict between the two sides would become more and more intense. It was even to the extent that because of the true dragon’s corpse, the entire world would be in chaos.
The middle-aged man seemed to understand and nodded. “It’s indeed impossible for Heaven Suppression City to fight the source ore shops alone. That’s definitely not on the same level. The other large cities might change their rules soon.”
In the city ruler’s residence, Li Zhentian waved his hand, and the sky returned to its original color. The barrier around the battlefield disappeared.
The disappointed young geniuses bid farewell to the city ruler and turned to leave in a sorry state.
Li Tengfei had not killed anyone. Perhaps Li Zhentian had already instructed him not to offend too many factions at once, which would make Heaven Suppressing City the target of public criticism.
Or perhaps they had other motives. After all, everyone, including those from the factions behind the source ore shops, were on their way back from the Heaven Suppressing City.
At that time, if they were ambushed and killed, it would have nothing to do with Heaven Suppressing City. In fact, for the source ore shops, they were only forcefully snatching half of the profits. However, they might lose their lives if they were attacked on the way back.
Seeing this, the onlookers gradually dispersed.
In the end, Li Zhentian was the one who had the final say in Heaven Suppressing City. With the incidents of the three source ore shops in front of them, no one dared to show their faces to him directly.
…
At night, in a small teahouse.
During this period of time, shocking things had happened one after another. The teahouse, which was a suitable place for gossiping, had also prospered because of this.
At this moment, it had been a long time since the incident in the city ruler’s residence had ended. However, even though it was late at night, it was still filled with customers.
Chen Yiming and Gao Shuai sat at a table in the corner.
Gao Shuai was wearing a hat, and his face had changed slightly. It was unknown how he had found Chen Yiming so easily.
“Brother, how about this?”
Gao Shuai suggested.
Hearing this, Chen Yiming’s face twitched.
This person really knew how to trick others. Now, he had to worry about when he would be tricked.
The outside world had just heard that Gao Shuai was lobbying the factions related to the source ore shops to join forces to deal with the pressure from the factions from the Infinite Island Group. He wanted to take advantage of the situation and join hands with the factions from the Infinite Island Group to attack the source ore shops instead.
The situation in the Heaven Suppressing City was already very clear. There was almost no room for negotiation.
A place where fixed rules could be easily broken, and the ruler was the one who took the lead to break them, was not a suitable place for long-term development.
The remaining factions behind the source ore shops and the geniuses representing these factions would definitely pack up and retreat from the Heaven Suppressing City in a few days.
Seeing that Chen Yiming wasn’t saying anything, Gao Shuai had no choice but to drop another bomb. “Someone will deal with the ruler of Heaven Suppressing City. We’re just trying to take advantage of the situation.”
“How is it? There’s no need for a 50-50 split. The source ores will belong to whoever obtains it.”
