Chapter 561: So That’s How It Is
Originally, things wouldn’t have escalated to this extent, but when two people with opposite attributes collided, it was like gunpowder meeting a flame, exploding without any room for maneuver.
In fact, for Su Hao, as long as his attitude was correct, and he communicated well, exchanging opinions, things wouldn’t have come to this. But from the start, he looked down on him with a very high posture, making him very uncomfortable.
For him, the solution to discomfort was simple; just stay away. He wouldn’t fall for anyone, but unfortunately, Luo Wang and others actually threatened him. There was nothing more to say; just bury them directly.
As for the subsequent troubles, he was never afraid of trouble. He could clean up everything in one go. He had done this kind of thing many times. The key was that he not only recovered all his strength from his previous life but also mastered an even more destructive force. He could be considered fearless. Of course, the most crucial thing was that he developed a skill specifically to counter strange abilities—second-level space.
Based on current testing, ‘second-level space’ allowed him to break free from the lock of strange abilities; the strangest abilities were all ineffective against him.
In stark contrast to Su Hao’s lack of concern, Luo Wang was confident in his power.
He believed in his identity and power. No one dared to challenge the authority of their royal family. As long as he revealed the identity of the royal family, everyone had to give him face. It had always been like this. He didn’t believe that these rural people would be an exception.
Arrogance was inherent in their royal family.
So, when he personally came to Huai Shui Town, he came with sincerity. And the Lucky Star Team also had to reciprocate his sincerity; they had no qualification to refuse.
If it were more prominent mages in bigger towns who refused him, it would be understandable. But for such a small town with just over a thousand residents, a place that could only be called a village, what qualifications did the people there have to refuse a dignified royal?
As a result, two incredibly confident forces collided, neither willing to yield to the other. It was like playing a game of “Golden Flower”; both sides had a good hand, inevitably leading to a life-and-death struggle until the cards were revealed.
…
Shortly after Su Hao and the others left, Luo Wang led his team back to his reception room, gritting his teeth: “Pack up, we’re going back to Ming Chuan.”
Xiao Hezi nodded immediately and acted accordingly. Two maids gently kneaded Luo Wang’s shoulders from behind, but they couldn’t dispel the anger in his heart. This anger began to accumulate in his chest as the carriage traveled on the bumpy road, reaching its peak, making him so frustrated that he felt like spitting blood.
Two mage guards, one tall and one short, both wearing thick armor, looked puzzled. The tall mage guard said, “Are we just going back like this? Shouldn’t we teach that arrogant kid a lesson?”
Luo Wang glanced at the tall mage guard and sneered, “Do you think the name ‘Lucky Star Team’ was just randomly chosen? Although they’re lucky, if you think they’ve gained their current fame solely through luck, then you’re gravely mistaken. With the people we have now, we’re not even worthy opponents.”
The mage guard was somewhat unconvinced. In his view, no matter how famous the Lucky Star Team was, they were just a newly rising team of newcomers, and they were all young people who hadn’t fully grown up yet. He didn’t believe that a seasoned senior mage like himself couldn’t defeat them.
But since the boss had spoken, he couldn’t refute it. He just forced a smile and said, “So what should we do? Just let that kid off like this?”
Luo Wang said coldly, “Let him off? Hmph, they’re just ignorant kids from the countryside, characters who can be crushed at will. How dare he refuse me? If he can refuse me, will everyone else follow suit?”
The driver quickly packed up their belongings and couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the plan, my lord?”
Luo Wang rarely showed a smile and said, “Of course, we’ll go back first, then send a few stronger teams to form a squadron and personally come here to capture all five members of their team, and then I’ll deal with them properly and make them regret everything they did today.”
“Luo Wang is wise!”
Luo Wang and his party quickly left Huai Shui Town and returned along the same road. The more they bumped along, the more resentful Luo Wang felt.
If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have made this trip himself. But those source teams all liked it when he personally invited them, right? Giving them face, they were also willing to agree.
But who would have thought that this Lucky Star Team would refuse so decisively!
However, since the Lucky Star Team was unwilling to accept his invitation, then their luck ends here!
Suddenly, two figures appeared on the road ahead. The driver immediately stepped on the brake and stopped.
Luo Wang frowned. “What’s wrong?”
The driver cautioned, “My lord, someone is blocking the road.”
At this point, Luo Wang’s two senior mage guards had already stood in front of the convoy, protecting Luo Wang from behind. One short and fat, a mage of the Gold Source, and one tall and strong, a mage of the Thunder Source, working together, no one could approach within a radius of two hundred meters.
They looked closely and realized that these were members of the Lucky Star Team. They stood behind that arrogant kid all day today, looking at them with ill intentions the whole time, leaving a deep impression on them.
The driver frowned. “Lord Luo, it seems to be mages from the Lucky Star Team, one named Ah Shan and the other named Ah Feng.”
Luo Wang frowned. “Go ask them what they want.”
Actually, there was no need to ask; they soon knew what Yashan and Feng Cheng, who were blocking the road, wanted to do.
…
Feng Cheng turned his head and asked, “Boss Yashan, how should we deal with them?”
Yashan smiled. “Kill them first, then bury them underground with the Diamond Armor. Watch me.”
As he spoke, Yashan’s figure grew taller, and his thick Diamond Armor enveloped his entire body, transforming into a [Child of Fate] in the blink of an eye.
As the Diamond Armor surged beneath his feet, countless flying swords rose into the air, at least fifty of them, all exquisite magical weapons emitting a dazzling golden light.
The two guards glanced at each other, seeing the seriousness in each other’s eyes. The tall and strong Thunder Origin Mage drew the large sword behind him and swung it twice as if wielding his arm, saying, “Deal with them directly and protect me.”
After speaking, he held the sword in both hands and roared to the sky.
“Roar!”
Electricity flashed all over his body, gradually connecting into a single mass, and electric snakes wriggled around him. His entire body grew taller, like a small giant. His hair flew upward, curly and straight, and his skin, visible to the naked eye, turned brown, reflecting a different hue under the blue-purple electric light.
Like a raging berserker, the large sword in his hand could destroy everything, unstoppable.
He swung the long sword in his hand, and his voice became extremely hoarse. “I’ll go first!”
After speaking, a large pit suddenly exploded under his feet, and he disappeared from the original place at an extremely fast speed, rushing towards the crystal-armored figure in the distance.
The short and fat Gold Origin Mage didn’t say much either. He thrust the long spear in his hand into the ground.
“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle~”
The sound of metal rubbing against stone came from underground.
“Boom, boom, boom!”
Immediately, the ground suddenly bulged up, and countless metal spikes shot out from the ground, closely following behind the tall and strong Thunder Origin Mage. These metals were all the best conductors, and soon, this area became their territory. In this territory, they feared nothing.
The tall and strong Thunder Origin Mage stabbed rapidly while revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, laughing wildly. This was the feeling of power; his whole body was boiling. In two more seconds, the large sword in his hand could tear everything apart.
Whether they are mages of the Energy Source or the Matter Source, as long as they get close, the omnipresent thunder can paralyze all opponents. Just give him a swing of the sword, and no matter how hard the metal is, it will be crushed like tofu!
As a mage of the Thunder Source, he possessed the fastest speed, the strongest physique, the most violent thunder and lightning, and the unstoppable power!
Unless it’s an illusionist mage, he is invincible.
Luo Wang, sitting in the back of the carriage at this moment, was incredulous: “What do these despicable commoners want to do? How dare they attack me? How dare they! I am a prince, a member of the world’s most prestigious royal family! Don’t these despicable commoners know the consequences of attacking a prince?”
At this moment, Luo Wang felt a sense of unease: if the Lucky Star Team intercepted them here…
“It’s impossible. The two guards I brought are carefully selected senior mages. They will definitely keep me safe!”
A chill surged in Luo Wang’s heart, gradually giving rise to a hint of fear, followed by endless anger: “Damn commoners, they all deserve to die! They dare to ignore the dignity of the royal family and attack me. They are doomed! When I go back, I’ll immediately gather people and kill everyone in this damn place! They dare to attack me, unforgivable!”
…
Yasha looked at the movements of the two men in the distance and couldn’t help but marvel, “This Thunder Origin Mage seems quite vigorous, but his speed is still too slow. He can barely reach the level of a Golden Core cultivator, but I reckon he can’t beat a Golden Core cultivator.”
Feng Cheng nodded. “Indeed. He looks quite vigorous, but it’s useless. His thunder and lightning probably can’t even break through the simplest Wind Spirit Shield.”
I wonder if these evaluations of the two men will anger the tall and strong Thunder Origin Mage.
Ashan clasped his fingers together and pointed casually, “Go!”
“Shoo, shoo, shoo~”
Golden light shot out from all around him.
When the golden light dispersed, everything was in chaos. The small carriage and two carts had been completely destroyed, scattered around.
And Luo Wang and the others were all dead.
Yashan said, “Then, bury these traces a thousand meters underground, preferably until even we can’t find them, and then restore the road to its original state. Done!”
A large mass of Diamond Armor surged under Yashan’s feet, spreading outward, wrapping around various parts and slowly sinking into the ground.
After a long time, the road was restored to its original appearance, and the Diamond Armor was retracted.
The weather was clear and the breeze was refreshing, as if nothing had happened.
Feng Cheng suddenly realized, “So that’s how it is.”
He had mastered another skill: burying people.
