Chapter 1397

"Haha! Lin Feng, little friend, stop thinking of a way to escape. We're eight million li away from the North. If you wanted to go back, it'd take you at least three days and nights!" said Ancestor Long from where he was sitting on his cloud. He hmphed and smiled.
Lin Feng remained expressionless. He was sitting on the cloud as well, and surveying the rivers and mountains below them. The scenery was quite beautiful.
Tian Yu Dao and Mo Kun looked at Lin Feng cruelly. Even though they didn't know why Ancestor Long had kidnapped Lin Feng, since Ancestor Long was happy, they didn't mind helping him. Lin Feng wouldn't hate them for that.
Dong Fang Yu Qing was the only one who was standing on the cloud. While Lin Feng watched the landscapes under his feet, Dong Fang Yu Qing stared at Lin Feng. He would never forget the moment when Lin Feng had humiliated and contradicted him, but he would also never forget the moment when Lin Feng got rid of his servant in three attacks. He had palpitations when thinking about it, and had to take revenge.
It was like seeking revenge just for an angry look, but he didn't care!
"Master Ancestor Long, we've been flying for three days and three nights, and we're only one day away from the South. We should take a rest," proposed Dong Fang Yu Qing. He was convinced the others wanted to rest as well.
Ancestor Long was surprised when he saw Dong Fang Yu Qing looked exhausted, as well as the others. He scratched his head. He had forgotten strong human cultivators' bodies were limited, unlike dragons. Dragons were much stronger than humans, so they were never tired.
"Alright, you all had tough fights and used up your pure Qi. We've been traveling for a while; we can take a rest. Let's find an inn," Ancestor Long agreed easily enough.
Dong Fang Yu Qing was happy inside, but didn't show it. He just nodded seriously, looking at the ground. There was a medium-level city there. It seemed quite nice.
"Master, there's a town down there. We could find an inn there," said Dong Fang Yu Qing, pointing to a city under their feet. Ancestor Long nodded. He didn't care about such things.
Dong Fang Yu Qing nodded and went down.
Cultivators were strange. When they were weak, they couldn't get away from basic necessities like food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. When they became stronger, they didn't need such things anymore, and they felt neither tired nor depressed. When they became extremely strong, they needed those things again to fill in the gaps in their lives. It didn't sound logical, but it was a fact. Godly Emperors, Supreme Gods, and Great Supreme Gods all the way up to Overlords needed to rest, eat, and sleep like ordinary humans.
In any case, no matter how strong a cultivator was, eating, drinking, and sleeping were enjoyable things to do. Were they really tired? Did they really need to have a rest? Nope. It was just a habit. Changing that habit was difficult.
——
Half an hour later, the five Overlords and Lin Feng arrived in the city. It was at the border between the South and North of the World of Battles. That city's name was very simple: Glory City!
The few Overlords didn't think anything about the city, but when they heard the story of the city from the owner of the inn, they remembered that back in the days, an extremely strong independent cultivator had risen there: Duan Rong!
Didn't it mean that this city was an Imperial City? Duan Rong was from here!
They suddenly thought the same thing: Why not go and greet the Great Protector of the Imperial City?
"Everybody, let's go and pay a visit to the Great Protector?" Ancestor Long smiled and stroked his beard. Even though Great Protector Duan Rong was just thirty-first on the List, a long time had passed and nobody knew how strong he was these days.
So many things had changed in the World of Battles, and the List of the World of Battles was just an example of what the world looked like at a given time. If the ranking on it was supposed to be a reflection of reality, it was now a joke. The fortieth person might be even stronger than the twentieth, and the twentieth might not even be able to defeat the fiftieth. It was completely possible!
All Overlords were extremely strong. Otherwise, why would the World of Battles need those Overlords so much? They had to respect those Overlords, because Overlords ensured the stability of the World of Battles.
"Master, we want to meet Great Protector Duan Rong as well, but what about Lin Feng?" asked Tian Yu Dao, glancing at the silent Lin Feng, who looked tired and sad.
They couldn't take Lin Feng to Duan Rong. If Duan Rong realized there was something wrong, and new problems cropped up unexpectedly, it would be a catastrophe. They didn't need to take risks.
Ancestor Long's smile disappeared from his face. He looked at Lin Feng and seemed pensive. Indeed, Lin Feng was an issue!
"Okay, we don't go at all," said Ancestor Long, shaking his head after thinking about it for a few minutes. He was angry though. Not being able to go and see the Great Protector because of Lin Feng was annoying, but he had no choice. Lin Feng was necessary.
Dong Fang Yu Qing just remained silent and looked at the other Overlords. At that moment, he smiled on the inside. It was a wonderful opportunity!
"Master, you four go and see Great Protector Duan Rong. I'll stay here and keep an eye on Lin Feng. What do you think?" Dong Fang Yu Qing smiling sincerely.
Ancestor Long's eyes gleamed. Suddenly, he laughed happily.
"Indeed! You stay here and keep an eye on Lin Feng! That's enough!" Mo Kun nodded and smiled broadly. Lin Feng was just a Holy Godly Ancestor, but because he was talented, Holy Godly Ancestors couldn't compete with him.
But Lin Feng couldn't do anything against Dong Fang Yu Qing. He couldn't escape. Therefore, Dong Fang Yu Qing could stay there alone, and easily keep an eye on Lin Feng.
Ancestor Long was happy they had found a solution. "Alright! Thanks, we'll be back soon, Little Dong Fang. Hahahaha!" Ancestor Long was extremely happy. He patted Dong Fang Yu Qing's shoulder and left with the other Overlords. He asked the owner where Duan Rong lived, and disappeared in that direction.
—
Lin Feng watched Ancestor Long leave and then looked at Dong Fang Yu Qing icily. He knew that if Dong Fang Yu Qing wanted to stay, it was because he had ulterior motives. Being alone with him was a wonderful opportunity.
Lin Feng was his target! Lin Feng had humiliated him, and had destroyed his servant, making him lose face. Dong Fang Yu Qing didn't intend to let Lin Feng off!
Lin Feng smiled. Dong Fang Yu Qing was looking down upon him.
Dong Fang Yu Qing was an Overlord in the List of the World of Battles, but he was extremely proud and arrogant, and very conceited.
Arrogant and despotic. Useless!
Lin Feng couldn't stand these arrogant and despotic pseudo-princes. Since he was in the World of Battles, he met fewer and fewer, but when he did, they were usually hostile, so he destroyed them!
But Lin Feng wasn't strong enough to destroy this one. At this moment, nobody could say how Dong Fang Yu Qing intended to torture him, but it definitely wasn't going to be fun!
"Hehe! Lin Feng, you didn't think we'd end up alone in a room, huh?" grinned Dong Fang Yu Qing, smiling evilly. THe walked towards Lin Feng.
Lin Feng turned his head away and stopped listening to Dong Fang Yu Qing's bullshit. He didn't need to listen to crap!
"Hehe, you had a bad temper, huh? It doesn't matter. Very quickly, you will understand what kind of person I am!" said Dong Fang Yu Qing looking down at Lin Feng. He was furious inside, but he still smiled cheerfully.
Lin Feng was sitting on a chair, his pure Qi Sealed. He couldn't even defeat a Holy Godly Ancestor right now so he definitely couldn't destroy an Overlord like Dong Fang Yu Qing.
"Lin Feng, do you know what happened to all the people who have ever dared infuriate me?" said Dong Fang Yu Qing, standing next to Lin Feng. He moved his face closer to Lin Feng's face and stared at him wickedly. Lin Feng tried to move his head away and remained silent.
Dong Fang Yu Qing was even angrier, but he smiled icily and nodded several times. Lin Feng was stubborn, huh?
"They all wished they were dead!" Dong Fang Yu Qing stopped smiling, his expression ferocious. He isolated the room, and his voice shook the place as if they were in a cave.
Lin Feng glanced at the energies of isolation and understood he was about to be tortured!
"First, finger injuries are extremely painful. You should try them, hehe!"
Dong Fang Yu Qing grabbed Lin Feng's arm and clamped down. Golden needles appeared, curved and with dry blood on them.
"Haha! Come! Haha!" shouted Dong Fang Yu Qing, clenching his teeth ferociously. He stuck one of the needles in Lin Feng's thumb. Drops of blood spurted into the air.
"AAAHHHHHH! You fucking asshole!" shouted Lin Feng. He clenched his teeth and paled. He glared at Dong Fang Yu Qing furiously, covered in cold sweat.
But it wasn't over.
"Second one, middle finger!"
"Uhhh ahhhhhhh! Dong Fang Yu Qing, you're a vile and petty person. You are a disgrace among the Overlords of the World of Battles!" Lin Feng hissed through his teeth. He didn't submit despite the torture. On the contrary, he kept insulting Dong Fang Yu Qing. He wanted to infuriate the bastard.
"Hmph! You really want to die!" sneered Dong Fang Yu Qing. More golden needles appeared and pierced Lin Feng's fingers.
Lin Feng was in so much pain that he shouted in pain, but nobody heard him outside of the room!
Lin Feng was being humiliated and tortured! But he never submitted! No matter what!
