## Chapter 18: The Benevolent Luo Feng

The two Eternal True Gods of the Qu Meng clan, who had been leisurely drinking and chatting, turned their heads, watching the distant Luo Feng, who was already releasing his aura, with great interest.

“Is his mind will so weak? Just a musical illusion performance, and he loses control?”

“Probably a lucky Eternal True God who broke through from some wild tribe. He doesn’t have any mind will cultivation techniques, so he’s so weak.”

“Such serious mental flaws are easily exploited.”

The two watched the spectacle with amusement. As members of the royal ‘Qu Meng Clan’, they already had a sense of superiority over the Eternal True Gods outside. They considered their secret techniques too crude and their secret treasures and weapons too poor. In their eyes, Luo Feng was just a lucky one who had become an Eternal True God without much training of his mind will.

“Such a fine Hundred Flowers Banquet, yet he spoils the mood.” A tall figure covered in black fur, his blood-red eyes filled with anger, had been immersed in the music, finding it an unparalleled delight, only to have his enjoyment ruined by Luo Feng.

He was none other than ‘Lai Mo’, the Third Leader of the dark force ‘Blood Python Society’.

“A newly emerged Eternal True God, no need to pay too much attention,” a black-scaled figure said, drinking his wine. “Dreamflower Mistress will soon have him escorted out, or he’ll disrupt the entire Hundred Flowers Banquet.”

This black-scaled figure was the Head of the Blood Python Society.

“Interesting.” Bai Wu Jun, his body made of mist, watched Luo Feng with one eye.

At that moment, all the other Eternal True Gods in the hall were paying attention to Luo Feng. After all, an Eternal True God releasing their aura would naturally arouse the vigilance of others; it was an instinct.

Dreamflower Mistress, who had been performing the musical illusion, seeing the situation, had no choice but to temporarily stop.

“I knew he was easily affected by musical illusions, but I didn’t expect him to lose control.” Dreamflower Mistress felt helpless. She had to consider the feelings of her other distinguished guests.

As the illusion stopped.

Luo Feng regained his senses. He realized the tables, food, wine, and everything else in the room had been completely shattered. Many Eternal True Gods in the surrounding buildings were looking at him, seemingly discussing something.

“I lost control,” Luo Feng thought grimly. “It seems listening to Dreamflower Mistress’s musical illusions isn’t suitable when practicing the *Seven Emotions Refining Heart Art*.”

“Brother Shang, my apologies,” Luo Feng said, immediately rising from his cross-legged position and turning to Shang Tianyan.

“It’s nothing,” Shang Tianyan laughed heartily. “I just didn’t expect you to be even more immersed than I was.”

“The Mistress’s music is indeed extraordinary,” Luo Feng smiled. “It reminded me of many old memories… I’ll go take a walk. Brother Shang, you continue.”

Luo Feng glanced at Morosa and then walked outside. Morosa immediately followed.

As Luo Feng walked out of the building, he nodded slightly to Dreamflower Mistress as an apology, then left with his servant, Morosa.

“When he looked at me, there was no infatuation,” Dreamflower Mistress thought, feeling slightly disappointed. Being immersed in the illusion didn’t necessarily mean infatuation with her. “But his resistance to illusions is clearly weak; there’s still a chance.”

“Everyone, there was a slight disturbance just now. Please don’t mind it…” Dreamflower Mistress’s voice rang out, naturally soothing their minds.

“That unfamiliar Eternal True God is probably of average strength.”

“I don’t know about the rest, but his mind will is rather weak.”

The group of Eternal True Gods observed the departing Luo Feng, each forming their own opinions.

…

“Master, are we not participating in the Hundred Flowers Banquet anymore?” Morosa asked, following Luo Feng.

“There’s nothing to participate in,” Luo Feng shook his head. Without using the *Seven Emotions Refining Heart Art*, the illusions were not worth mentioning. But using it temporarily exceeded his limits and could lead to loss of control.

Compared to that, the Void True God level musicians were more suitable for him.

“Esteemed Lord,” the green-robed attendant, Yu Luo, also followed.

“Arrange another place,” Luo Feng instructed. “Oh, right, have A’luoya come over.”

The green-robed attendant nodded and immediately began sending messages to make arrangements. Soon, she whispered, “Esteemed Lord, the Hundred Flowers Banquet is being held today! Dreamflower Building has many guests. A’luoya is performing elsewhere and will probably take a while to arrive.”

“Oh?” Luo Feng’s gaze swept across, and with his perfect divine body’s sensory abilities, he instantly locked onto a hall. A’luoya was performing in that hall.

******

Inside this hall.

A’luoya stood there, vines spreading out from her body, directly coiling around various instruments. Under the urging of divine power, the various instruments naturally resonated, immersing the guests in illusions.

When the performance ended, A’luoya immediately bowed and prepared to leave.

“Wait,” a youth sitting in the main seat spoke. The youth had four purple horns on his head, resembling a crown, and eyes that burned with purple flames. Anyone with a little knowledge would recognize him as a descendant of the ‘Mo Li Clan’ of Hu Yang City.

A’luoya had no choice but to stop.

“I have visited Dreamflower Building many times and listened to many songs. You are the most talented musician I have heard,” the Mo Li Clan youth said. “I, Mo Li Lian, formally invite you to become a musician of the Mo Li Clan. I wonder if you are willing?”

A’luoya’s heart trembled at the invitation from a member of the Mo Li Clan. She didn’t want to go. Entering such a top clan, she feared, would turn her into nothing more than a plaything.

Beside Mo Li Lian sat a red-haired man, who laughed and said, “A’luoya, Mo Li Lian is a genius of the younger generation of the Mo Li Clan and has even been personally guided by ‘Mo Li Xiao’, the commander of the Hu Yang Legion. The hope of him becoming an Eternal True God is extremely high. His personal invitation is an honor for you. What are you hesitating about?”

“I am a musician of Dreamflower Building and cannot leave without permission,” A’luoya said softly.

“As long as you are willing, Dreamflower Mistress will still give my Mo Li Clan face,” Mo Li Lian said with a smile.

“Young Master Mo Li Lian… I, I don’t want to go,” A’luoya said, summoning all her courage. If she really entered the Mo Li Clan, she wouldn’t be able to offend any of the core members. She would be just a plaything, summoned and dismissed at will.

Mo Li Lian frowned slightly.

Seeing this, the red-haired man immediately spoke, “A’luoya, you are from the Thousand Leaf Vine Grass Clan, right? If I remember correctly, the Thousand Leaf Vine Grass Clan is within our Blood Python Society’s territory?”

The Blood Python Society was one of the nineteen dark forces in Hu Yang City, secretly controlling the entire city. A’luoya’s face changed upon hearing this.

“The Thousand Leaf Vine Grass Clan has nine Void True Gods and over ten thousand True Gods, residing in the Xue Dong District of Hu Yang City,” the red-haired man looked at her. “I shouldn’t be mistaken.”

He remembered the origins of all kinds of cultivators within the Blood Python Society’s territory.

Because he needed to find ‘fat sheep’ and slaughter them once they were discovered!

“Hall Master Duan,” A’luoya hesitated; she was truly unwilling. How could she be willing to be a plaything on the path of cultivation? But she was afraid, afraid of the Blood Python Society!

“Duan Mo Yun, your Blood Python Society has mediocre strength,” Mo Li Lian chuckled, his eyes turning colder.

The red-haired man also looked at A’luoya with some annoyance. “Little musician, you don’t know what’s good for you. Get lost!”

A’luoya was sitting on pins and needles and didn’t dare to leave at all. She could see that ‘Hall Master Duan Mo Yun’ was very annoyed. If she really left just like that, it might bring disaster to the entire Thousand Leaf Vine Grass Clan.

Just as A’luoya was in a dilemma, a purple-robed attendant hurried into the hall, apologizing repeatedly. “Young Master Mo Li Lian, Hall Master Duan Mo Yun, please don’t be angry. Since Young Master Mo Li Lian has personally invited her, it is naturally A’luoya’s blessing. I will persuade A’luoya.”

Mo Li Lian nodded slightly.

!

The red-haired man, Duan Mo Yun, sneered. “This little musician has quite the guts.”

“Yes, yes,” the purple-robed attendant replied, about to pull A’luoya out first.

Suddenly—

The entire hall fell silent. Everyone seemed to be frozen in a painting, unable to move or make any sound.

At this moment, a black-haired man, accompanied by an honest-looking servant, walked into the hall.

“Dreamflower Building?” Luo Feng scoffed. “I said that I greatly appreciate musician A’luoya! How dare you Dreamflower Building try to give away a musician I have my eye on to some little brat?”

Everyone present was filled with fear, including Young Master Mo Li Lian and Hall Master Duan Mo Yun.

They were terrified.

An Eternal True God turning hostile could easily crush them. Although they had backgrounds, backgrounds did not equal strength! If Luo Feng didn’t care about their backgrounds, they were just two Void True Gods.

“Supreme Luo He!” the green-robed attendant also entered the hall, extremely anxious. “It’s our Dreamflower Building’s fault.”

“Shut up,” Luo Feng said.

The green-robed attendant immediately dared not utter a word.

Luo Feng’s gaze swept over Hall Master Duan Mo Yun and Young Master Mo Li Lian, and he said indifferently, “From today on, the two of you are forbidden from entering Dreamflower Building.”

“And you of Dreamflower Building,” Luo Feng’s gaze swept over the green-robed and purple-robed attendants. “A’luoya, you must take good care of her. If you can’t protect her, then hand her over to me! Do you understand?”

The green-robed attendant nodded repeatedly.

“As for the Blood Python Society, the Mo Li Clan, and Dreamflower Building, is there anyone who is dissatisfied? You can come and find me,” Luo Feng smiled slightly. “I will give them a warm welcome.”

After speaking, the invisible aura dissipated, and all living beings in the entire hall regained their freedom.

But everyone was startled and dared not say a word for a moment.

“A’luoya, come with me,” Luo Feng said and then walked straight out.

“Hehehe…” Morosa glanced around and also laughed a few times before walking out. He had been ordered ‘not to cause trouble,’ but Morosa absolutely approved of Master Luo Feng causing trouble.

A’luoya and the green-robed attendant followed him out, both somewhat dazed.

…

Inside the hall were only Young Master Mo Li Lian, Hall Master Duan Mo Yun, the purple-robed attendant, and a group of subordinates.

“This is too…” Mo Li Lian felt humiliated and angry but was helpless.

“He doesn’t put the Blood Python Society, Dreamflower Building, or the Mo Li Clan in his eyes at all,” the red-haired man, Duan Mo Yun, was extremely annoyed and immediately sent a message to report the details to the Head and Deputy Head of the Blood Python Society.

At that moment, the Head and a Deputy Head of the Blood Python Society were attending the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

“I must tell the Mistress,” the purple-robed attendant also immediately told Dreamflower Mistress everything.

…

Luo Feng arrived at the familiar Lan Xing Palace, where food and wine had already been prepared.

The green-robed attendant whispered, “Esteemed Lord, today’s matter may cause some trouble.”

Luo Feng glanced at her but said nothing.

He had already restrained himself a lot!

In order to avoid causing A’luoya, the musician, too much trouble, he hadn’t even taken action! Before, when he heard ‘Hall Master Duan Mo Yun’ threaten with the Thousand Leaf Vine Grass Clan, Luo Feng had felt the urge to kill.

He despised those who threatened and coerced with a clan.

He would have felt satisfied if he had killed them, but it would bring a lot of trouble to A’luoya. So he was very restrained, only giving a few pointers; he was already being very benevolent!

“Supreme Luo He,” a member of the Blood Python Society walked to the outside of the palace and said respectfully, “My Deputy Head is also attending the Hundred Flowers Banquet. Upon hearing that my Blood Python Society’s Hall Master Duan Mo Yun had a small conflict with the Esteemed Lord, Deputy Head Lai Mo specially ordered me to invite the Esteemed Lord to a banquet!”

“Invite me to a banquet?” Luo Feng said, holding his wine glass. “If he wants to see me, he should come to me in person! There’s no reason for me to visit him!”
