Chapter 198: The Angry Lamb

The black-armored giant Agutaili who suddenly charged up quickly startled everyone.

A group of guards rushed over, preparing to intercept his charge so as not to block the ancient ritual to open the Crystal World. However, a cold glare from him as the Commander of the Guards made them hesitate and stop in their tracks. As a leader who strictly enforced orders, his prestige within the Crystal City was not formed overnight.

“Damn it! As a Commander, he actually interrupted the ritual to open the Crystal World. Does Agutaili not know what racial interests are?”

“Um, actually, Agutaili is quite pitiful too.”

…

Watching Agutaili surge with blood rage, people pointed and talked. Some agreed and admired his decisiveness and courage, while others blamed his insolence for disregarding the clan’s interests for his own sake.

“Agutaili, you are being insolent! Come, seize him!”

Before Hu Feng could speak, Bailier, who had been lying in his arms, put on her robe and stood up coldly. With one command, a large group of guards rushed forward and surrounded Agutaili, the Commander. With her father severely injured, Bailier, the princess, had become the person with the most power in the Crystal City, and no one dared to disobey her orders.

A moment ago, Bailier had been shyly lying in Hu Feng’s arms like a weak little lamb; the next moment, she reverted to the true nature of a female warrior, resolute and decisive.

“Conquering such a woman brings the true sense of conquest!”

Hu Feng gave an evil smile and stood aside to observe the changes.

“Miss Bailier, if you do not show your true strength, how can you know if this guy has the ability to open the Crystal World? How can he prove his ability to save the Crystal City?” Agutaili risked everything, his eyes red with rage, glaring fiercely at Hu Feng. He secretly vowed in his heart that no matter what, he must stop this ancient ritual.

No matter how calm or magnanimous he was, he could not accept the fact that Bailier, whom he liked, became another man’s woman in public.

Boom…

The Crystal City began to shake violently. The ancient crystal Altar creaked, and several red-hot candles fell to the ground. The sounds of killing and slaughter outside grew closer and clearer. The defense line of the Crystal City had reached the edge of complete collapse.

Seeing that Agutaili still did not know when to back down, Bailier raised her willow-leaf eyebrows and said sternly, “Agutaili, don’t think that I really dare not kill you! If the major matter of opening the Crystal World is delayed, maybe not a single one of our Mermaid Clan can survive. Can you bear such heavy responsibility then? If you really had the ability, you would have led the guards to repel the Naga Legion long ago. Would you wait until today?”

Bailier showed no mercy and directly touched Agutaili’s painful spot.

As a Guard Commander, nothing was more depressing than a series of defeats. He wanted to repel the powerful Naga Legion more than anyone else, and he yearned to become the hero who saved his clan, marry the beautiful princess Bailier with honor, and become the next City Lord with justification. Unfortunately, he had failed!

Defeated again and again, through several ambushes, he not only failed to repel the powerful Naga Legion but also caused heavy losses to the Crystal City, with countless Mermaid Warriors perishing in the sea!

“Bailier…”

Agutaili’s face turned from blue to red, and he was speechless.

The humiliation of defeat, depression, unwillingness, and boundless anger intermingled instantly. He did not know how to save the Crystal City and his clan, nor how to repel the powerful Naga Legion. At this moment, he had only one thought in his mind: he could not bear to watch the Bailier he loved become Hu Feng’s woman!

“Execute him! Drag him out and behead him!”

Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly severe and Agutaili, the Commander, still did not know the right course of action, Bailier gave a cold order. The guards looked at each other, and after exchanging glances, they had to press forward against Agutaili, the Commander.

Just as they had to harden their hearts and act, and while the many clansmen under the Altar were discussing things with murmurs, Hu Feng, who had been standing aside observing, stepped forward. “Stop. Warrior Agutaili is right. If I do not personally display my powerful strength, how can I prove my ability to open the Crystal World?”

Hu Feng smiled and continued calmly looking at the angry Agutaili, “Come on, Warrior Agutaili! Let me show you to what extent a Demi-god Stronger has reached in his Cultivation!”

Roar…

While speaking, Hu Feng summoned all eleven Demon God Clones. The Aura Demon God with an aura that shook the heavens, the Puppet Demon God cold all over, the Black Sky Demon God who controlled heaven and earth… all roared in unison. The tyrannical aura, the boundless pressure, and their massive bodies immediately changed the color of everyone present, and Bailier standing beside him was no exception.

“A Demi-god Stronger, truly a supreme Demi-god Stronger!”

Bailier muttered to herself. Hu Feng’s arrival gave her a glimmer of hope. Now, sensing the powerful strength of the many Demon God Clones, she finally breathed a sigh of relief! Although she did not know exactly what realm Hu Feng had reached, compared to the last time at the Glory Castle, his strength was obviously far superior, much more powerful than the powerful Naga Queen.

A Demi-god Stronger!

With a Demi-god Stronger standing guard, who else could break in?

Seeing Hu Feng’s powerful strength, people were shocked and then cheered together, excited beyond measure.

Millions of years ago, when the Mermaid Clan was still the Overlord of the sea, experts at the Demi-god Realm level emerged in full force. But since the disappearance of the Crystal World, no genius in the clan had ever broken through to the Demi-god Realm. The originally powerful Guardians either died in battle or wandered in distant Planes, with no news of them. Slowly, the Mermaid Clan became weaker and weaker, suffering from the exclusion and pursuit of various races, forming a vicious cycle.

The weaker they became, the more they were excluded and attacked; the more they were attacked, the weaker they became. Until they reached the point of having no way out today, facing the disaster of extermination of their clan!

“A Demi-god Stronger, eleven Demon God Clones?”

Looking at the massive bodies of the eleven Demon Gods, Agutaili with red eyes muttered to himself. While others cheered loudly and were excited, he was the exact opposite. His limbs were cold, his heart grew heavier, and he felt a bitter taste in his heart.

Relying on his Saint Domain Peak strength, exceptional courage, and strategy, he had become the Guard Commander of the Crystal City. Compared to ordinary Mermaid Warriors, his strength was powerful, making him the most powerful warrior of the Mermaid Clan without a doubt. However, compared with Hu Feng’s imposing manner, he had unknowingly fallen far behind!

“Sea God protect us!”

After a moment of silence, Agutaili with red eyes suddenly shouted loudly, holding his giant axe and rushing towards Hu Feng regardless of everything. The hard black heavy armor on his body shimmered with silver light, adding a layer of flowing water shield. This water shield condensed almost all of his Magic Power and could absorb all attacks from enemies. With this move, he had killed countless powerful and vicious Naga Warriors.

Although he knew clearly that he could not win, Agutaili rushed forward without fear. He would rather defend his dignity with his own blood than endure watching the Bailier he loved become Hu Feng’s woman.

Thud…

Facing Agutaili rushing towards him with Killing Intent, Hu Feng simply swung a punch. The eleven tyrannical Demon God Clones beside him remained motionless throughout.

This punch had no mystery, and even the power was less than thirty percent. But once thrown, it shook Agutaili’s sharp giant axe away, and then, with the unfinished momentum, sent his tall body flying out. The water shield on his body, which was said to be impervious to swords and spears, scattered with a ‘splash’ sound, and the black heavy armor inside appeared with countless cracks, turning into tiny dust particles.

After devouring most of Redelson’s Origin Power, Hu Feng’s understanding of strength advanced another step. A casual punch caused the reckless Agutaili to suffer heavy injuries. This was still showing mercy, giving face to Bailier, unwilling to slaughter on a large scale at this moment. Otherwise, with just a little more effort, he could have directly shattered his body into pieces!

“Hu Feng, good. I will remember your name. One day, I will return and wash away today’s humiliation with blood!”

Agutaili struggled to stand up while speaking, with strands of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth. Glaring hatefully at Hu Feng, he pushed away the support of several guards and left coldly.

In just one exchange, he knew he was far from being Hu Feng’s match. Even a life-and-death strike would be useless, and it still could not stop the progress of the ritual, nor could it prevent Bailier from becoming Hu Feng’s woman. At the moment he was heavily injured by Hu Feng’s punch, he suddenly understood.

Rather than being laughed at and dying on the spot worthlessly, it was better to live with humiliation. He would wander in the outside world, practice hard, and until he reached Demi-god Peak, he would return to take revenge on Hu Feng! At that time, he would repay insult with injury, steal all the women around him, and insult them grossly in front of him.

“Good, I wait for you!”

Hu Feng’s face was calm, and he did not take such a trivial person to heart at all. He waved his hand and gathered the many Demon God Clones.

“Amazing, a Demi-god Stronger, indeed amazing!”

“I heard that Lord Hu Feng is a Great Demon King who rules the entire Underground World. Of course, he is amazing!”

“Pah, what Great Demon Head, he is actually a holy Judgment Divine Official. Do you know what a Judgment Divine Official is? They are the real experts and big shots of the Divine Court. With his help, our Crystal City will no longer be in danger and will not need to seek refuge everywhere. We might even restore the glory of being the Overlord of the sea in ancient times!”

…

Witnessing Hu Feng’s powerful strength, people no longer had any doubts. They were excited one by one and saw a beautiful future. Under the direction of the old priest, the ethereal singing sounded again in the Crystal City, continuing the ritual interrupted by Agutaili.

“Bailier, are you willing to marry Lord Hu Feng? From now on, whether he is poor, destitute, or plagued by illness and the curse of Demon Gods, are you willing to serve him for a lifetime and stay by his side?” The old priest, covered in wrinkles, said while tremblingly flipping open an ancient book, his face full of wrinkles, having experienced many storms and vicissitudes.

“In the name of the Sea God, I am willing!”

After a moment’s hesitation, Bailier slowly took off her robe again, revealing her charming delicate body.
