# Chapter 52: The Overbearing River Luo Divine Lord

Through the damaged buildings, the members of the Six Monarch Alliance headquarters could vaguely make out the figures of Luo Feng, White Mist Monarch, and Prison Wind Monarch. These ordinary members trembled in their hearts, not daring to approach.

White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch were utterly terrified, fearing they would suffer the same fate as Thousand Eyes Monarch.

“It has nothing to do with us,” White Mist Monarch said urgently.

“That was Thousand Eyes Monarch’s prey; she would never allow us to interfere,” Prison Wind Monarch added. “Moreover, we even advised her, since it was a family of an Eternal True God who had died, that she shouldn’t make things too ugly. But she wouldn’t listen!”

White Mist Monarch continued, “Most of the Eternal True Gods in Hu Yang City know each other, and we have to be restrained in our actions. But Thousand Eyes Monarch was simply insane, acting recklessly…”

Luo Feng frowned slightly.

White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch immediately fell silent.

“The information I gathered also said it was Thousand Eyes Monarch who did it. That’s why you were spared,” Luo Feng said coldly.

White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Only when facing this River Luo Divine Lord could they feel such suffocating pressure. They had no doubt that, at the slightest disagreement, the River Luo Divine Lord would crush them to death.

“I killed Thousand Eyes Monarch, who acted directly. As for you five, forget it, I’ll fine you 300,000 Universe Sand. I’ll spare your lives,” Luo Feng said indifferently.

“300,000 Universe Sand?” White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch exchanged glances, immediately contacting their other three companions through their communication tokens.

They feared the River Luo Divine Lord.

But 300,000 Universe Sand was indeed a huge fortune. Divided among the five of them, they would each have to come up with 60,000 Universe Sand! They needed to expend a large amount of resources on cultivation, as well as purchasing inheritances and secret treasures. Most of them couldn’t produce that much.

“River Luo Divine Lord, we have immediately contacted our other three companions,” White Mist Monarch said obsequiously. “But we ourselves expend a lot of resources, and cannot come up with too much Universe Sand.”

“If you can’t come up with it, you can die,” Luo Feng said, looking at them. He had no sympathy for Eternal True Gods of the dark forces.

“No, no…” Prison Wind Monarch explained, “We can sell our secret treasures to gather some Universe Sand, but in these past twenty-odd epochs, we have never offended the Divine Lord. We five did not participate in the Qi Feng family’s matter, and we are very wronged. Could the Divine Lord have pity on us and reduce the punishment? 300,000 Universe Sand is a great burden on us.”

“You dark forces, are you starting to reason now?” Luo Feng looked at them with a smile that wasn’t a smile. “Haven’t you been hunting all along? Randomly selecting a large number of prey in your own territory, wantonly killing them, did those prey provoke you?”

White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch were silent.

“Killing and plundering living beings for your own benefit. Killing all of you scum, none would be wronged! It’s just that there are everywhere in the Origin Continent, and I, a mere Eternal True God, can’t control it. But since you’ve fallen into my hands, I’ll kill you and fine you, and you still have objections?” Luo Feng looked at them. “Since you’re haggling, then the price for you to live has changed, it’s now 500,000 Universe Sand.”

“You five Eternal True Gods of the Six Monarch Alliance, produce 500,000 Universe Sand, and you can live. If you can’t produce it, then die,” Luo Feng said leisurely. “I’ll give you one day to prepare.”

“500,000 Universe Sand?” White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch trembled.

“Any more objections?” Luo Feng looked at them.

“No objections, no objections,” White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch immediately shook their heads, no longer daring to argue.

“Oh, right, please pass a message to the three Eternal True Gods of the Cloud Treasure Pavilion,” Luo Feng instructed. “Just say that they swallowed the resources of two great families. Seeing that they didn’t wantonly slaughter, their fine will be the same as yours in the Six Monarch Alliance, also 500,000 Universe Sand. Give them one day to prepare.”

“The Cloud Treasure Pavilion’s fine is also 500,000 Universe Sand?” White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch inexplicably felt much better.

It seemed that the Six Monarch Alliance wasn’t the only unlucky one.

“We will definitely pass the message,” White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch responded quickly.

“You only have one day.”

After Luo Feng finished speaking, he collected the Qi Feng family siblings, who had been trembling in a corner, and then left with Mo Luo Sa.

*Huff*.

In a few steps, the two had already left the range of the Six Monarch Alliance headquarters, then rode away on a flying boat.

White Mist Monarch and Prison Wind Monarch watched this scene silently.

“Even the City Lord’s Mansion ultimately bowed their heads when facing this River Luo Divine Lord. We simply cannot resist,” Prison Wind Monarch sighed.

“Thousand Eyes Monarch was a fool; I had told her long ago not to target Eternal True God forces when looking for prey, as it would have endless troubles. But she wouldn’t listen. It’s fine that she died, but she also harmed us, making each of us have to pay 100,000 Universe Sand.”

“The Cyan Dark Monarch is also a fool; he told us to talk to the River Luo Divine Lord. But this talk actually raised the price, turning 300,000 Universe Sand into 500,000 Universe Sand,” Prison Wind Monarch gnashed his teeth in anger.

“This River Luo Divine Lord told us to pass a message, let’s pass the message to the Cloud Treasure Pavilion,” White Mist Monarch immediately took out his communication token and began to transmit the message.

…

The Cloud Treasure Pavilion’s branch in Hu Yang City had three Eternal True Gods stationed there.

The Cloud Treasure Pavilion had a Chaos Master behind it, so even a branch received face from all sides in Hu Yang City, and they would not easily provoke it. Even the Food Kingdom forces would not easily create conflict with a large force’s branch.

“What?” The Cloud Treasure Pavilion’s Pavilion Master and two Deputy Pavilion Masters were somewhat dumbfounded when they received the news.

“This River Luo Divine Lord has great courage! He dares to ask us to hand over 500,000 Universe Sand?”

“Our Cloud Treasure Pavilion was created by the ‘Heavenly Treasure Marquis’! How dare he bully my Cloud Treasure Pavilion like this?”

In Hu Yang City, who wouldn’t give them some face?

Large force branches were relatively detached. Although they did not have the status of the ‘Flame Wind Hall branch’, they could still frequently associate with the five great families.

“What to do?” The black mist around the Cloud Treasure Pavilion Master’s body billowed, and a huge single eye contained anger.

“This River Luo Divine Lord is too much, but we can’t report this matter to the Marquis. First of all, this matter is us secretly profiting, and the Marquis would severely punish us if he knew. Secondly, the Cloud Treasure Pavilion’s business spans most of the Yu Kingdom’s cities. The affairs of each city add up to countless, and the Marquis simply won’t care about these trivial matters.”

Because the Marquis was too lazy to care and only managed the final total accounts, they dared to profit with the ‘Cloud Treasure Pavilion’s’ name.

If three normal Eternal True Gods forcibly swallowed all the resources of a family of two formation experts, there would be considerable backlash. Thousand Eyes Monarch had to rely on ‘killing’ to force the transfer of resources.

But with the Cloud Treasure Pavilion’s name, they could intimidate all sides and quietly do things cleanly.

Over the long years, they had become very skilled at doing this kind of thing.

The income that the Cloud Treasure Pavilion distributed to them was simply too little. Profiting like this was where they made the bulk of their money.

“500,000 Universe Sand is really too much,” the Pavilion Master said. “I’ll visit the Wei Divine Lord. If the Wei Divine Lord is willing to help, she should be able to resolve this matter.”

The two Deputy Pavilion Masters nodded. “Yes, Wei Divine Lord.”

“If the Wei Divine Lord is willing to help, this is just a small matter.”

For them, even selling their body armor and weapons would be necessary to gather 500,000 Universe Sand. Half their lives would be squeezed out, so they naturally wanted to find a way to delay it.

The Heavenly Treasure Marquis would not care about such a small matter, and they wouldn’t dare to say it, so they could only find a way themselves.

After thinking about it, the five great families didn’t dare to anger the River Luo Divine Lord, so they could only rely on the Wei Divine Lord.

“I’ll go now,” the Cloud Treasure Pavilion Master didn’t dare to delay, and immediately went to visit the Wei Divine Lord.

…

Not long after.

The Cloud Treasure Pavilion Master returned.

“How was it?” The two Deputy Pavilion Masters both felt that things were not good. If there was good news, he would have transmitted it in advance.

*!*

The Cloud Treasure Pavilion Master’s huge single eye was filled with resentment: “The Wei Divine Lord refused and even scolded us, telling us to obediently hand over the 500,000 Universe Sand. Based on her judgment of the River Luo Divine Lord, if we don’t hand it over, the River Luo Divine Lord is afraid that he will attack.”

“River Luo dares to kill us?” one Deputy Pavilion Master said anxiously.

“He dares to kill the five great families, do you think he dares to kill us? Alas, the Marquis won’t interfere in our Eternal True God disputes,” the Cloud Treasure Pavilion Master shook his head. “Forget it, let’s endure the River Luo. He is so arrogant, there will definitely be a time when he is unlucky.”

“Killing the five great families, threatening us, continuing to be so arrogant, there will be a time for backlash,” the two Deputy Pavilion Masters felt heartache, heartache for the Universe Sand.

“The three of us will each take out part of the 500,000 Universe Sand,” the Cloud Treasure Pavilion Master said.

“When we profited before, you took half, and we two divided the remaining half. It should be the same this time. You pay 250,000 Universe Sand, and we two will combine to pay 250,000 Universe Sand,” the two Deputy Pavilion Masters stood together, as they were much poorer than the Pavilion Master.

“I can’t come up with 250,000 Universe Sand right now.”

“You can sell treasures, or borrow.”

…

“This River Luo Divine Lord is really ruthless, wanting my Six Monarch Alliance to pay a full 500,000 Universe Sand?” The Six Monarch Alliance was also troubled by gathering 500,000 Universe Sand.

On this day.

Luo Feng forcefully broke into the Six Monarch Alliance headquarters without concealing it. The news naturally fermented in Hu Yang City. The Six Monarch Alliance and the Cloud Treasure Pavilion branch’s Pavilion Master and Deputy Pavilion Masters were all trying to sell treasures to gather Universe Sand, so naturally the news slowly spread.

Killing Thousand Eyes Monarch, and making the Six Monarch Alliance and the Cloud Treasure Pavilion branch each hand over 500,000 Universe Sand?

This news made the various forces in Hu Yang City somewhat look askance. After twenty-odd epochs of silence, the River Luo Divine Lord still had such an overbearing temper.

“River Luo Divine Lord.”

White Mist Monarch and the Cloud Treasure Pavilion Master came to Tian Yan Gate together to visit Luo Feng!

Luo Feng’s temporary residence at Tian Yan Gate was not a secret to the Eternal True Gods of Hu Yang City.

“They came within a day,” Luo Feng got up, while Shang Tian Yan and Mo Luo Sa stood beside him watching.

“It was our recklessness that angered the Divine Lord, please appease your anger.” White Mist Monarch respectfully presented a jade bottle, “This is 500,000 Universe Sand, all of which has been gathered.”

“Divine Lord, please appease your anger.” The Cloud Treasure Pavilion Master dared not show the slightest arrogance at this moment, also presenting a jade bottle, “This is 500,000 Universe Sand, and we have also properly settled the descendants of the two great families.”

Shang Tian Yan watched this scene, sighing inwardly.

Shang Tian Yan’s disciples, as well as the Qi Feng family siblings who had been rescued, all saw this scene from afar.

The two major forces in Hu Yang City respectfully visited and handed over 500,000 Universe Sand, not daring to have the slightest complaint. This scene had a great impact on these disciples and the Qi Feng family siblings.

“Alright, you can leave,” Luo Feng took the two jade bottles, his divine power penetrating and scanning to confirm that there was not a single Universe Sand missing.

White Mist Monarch and the Cloud Treasure Pavilion Master bowed and took their leave.

After they left, some of the disciples watching from afar began to discuss.

“Did you see the power of the River Luo Divine Lord?” A woman next to Mo Yu Liu Xing exclaimed, “Liu Xing, I heard that you had a chance to follow the River Luo Divine Lord before? Did you give it up later?”

“I was unwilling to take risks,” Mo Yu Liu Xing smiled, looking at his wife. “Although I gave it up, it was ultimately my second brother who followed the Divine Lord. Moreover, I met Senior Sister after coming to Tian Yan Gate.”

The woman smiled, sighing, “But you did miss out on a great opportunity.” She felt a little sorry for her husband.

On the path of cultivation, she knew very well how important a great opportunity was.

…

Shang Tian Yan and Luo Feng walked side by side within Tian Yan Gate.

“One day, a million Universe Sand, and they obediently presented it. I’ve learned something,” Shang Tian Yan said with emotion.

“The families of the three Eternal True Gods who died, their families’ lives are probably not good,” Luo Feng said. “I know you will take care of them, but because of them, I obtained a fortune, so naturally I have to show some kindness.”

Luo Feng gave a jade bottle to Shang Tian Yan, “There isn’t much in here, only 30,000 Universe Sand. You can use it to settle the three families.”

“30,000 Universe Sand is a lot. Ordinary Eternal True Gods don’t even have that much when they empty their treasures,” Shang said. “It’s just settling family descendants, not much is needed.”

“You arrange it,” Luo Feng placed the jade bottle in Shang Tian Yan’s hand.

Shang Tian Yan no longer refused.

Luo Feng looked at the distant night sky: “Next, I plan to enter seclusion for a period of time. You have to be careful yourself.”

Enough wealth had been accumulated; it was time for the third body refinement.
