Chapter 1407: How dare they
A deep voice resonated as all eyes gathered.
As soon as Pork Rong appeared, the atmosphere of the entire scene drastically changed. Hearing the ancient titan Jiang Yuan voice his praise, the four phantoms of the ancient sages could not help but take him more seriously.
After a few breaths of confrontation, a rare hint of a smile appeared on the phantoms.
"Mid-stage of the Desolate Realm Heavenly Transformation? That barely counts as having some aptitude."
"Indeed. Cultivating to such a level, the effects of so-called resources and bitter training are already minuscule; aptitude is the key that determines one's absolute height. On the surface, even the slightest difference in cultivation is enough to demonstrate a chasm-like difference in talent. This person's talent is far above those few ants."
"If one wishes to successfully condense an avatar like us, the requirements for aptitude are even more stringent. Aside from this junior who has a sliver of hope, there is absolutely no second person on the current Cloud Star."
"Exactly. With Cloud Star fallen to such a state, how could he possibly find any resources to assist him? To step into this realm relying solely on talent is truly rare."
"Just as Elder Jiang said, this person is undoubtedly the contemporary high-level figure behind the scenes!"
After sizing him up and commenting, the several phantoms revealed faint smiles in their eyes.
In their subtle words and expressions, the superiority of ancient predecessors naturally flowed out. No matter how capable Pork Rong was, in their eyes, he was still just a wet-behind-the-ears junior.
At most, he was only barely pleasing to the eye.
Although this posture was repulsive.
The Star God Guards, however, did not dare to speak out of turn. After struggling to stand up, they approached Pork Rong, clasped their fists in salute, with a bit of apprehension still in the depths of their eyes.
"My Lord..."
Before they could finish, Pork Rong calmly waved his hand and interrupted them.
"You all step back first. I already know."
The butcher shop assistants did not dare to say more and hurriedly retreated quietly.
Pork Rong had long been hiding nearby, observing everything from start to finish, so naturally he did not need the shop assistants to report.
At this moment.
The two sides stood quietly facing each other. Pork Rong looked steady, but his mood was somewhat complicated.
He truly did not expect that Cloud Star still had ancient sages alive, and that they would inexplicably come to cause trouble. If the Fifth Miss had not given prior instructions, they really would have ruined things.
Watching these old men act all high and mighty, Pork Rong felt very helpless.
These people stepping forward in the name of exterminating the demon race could be considered well-intentioned, but they absolutely could not be allowed to kill Long Tian, otherwise this play could not go on.
They were, after all, ancient sages. Although their methods were flawed, it was for the greater good of Cloud Star. It could be considered doing a bad thing with good intentions, which was excusable, so he absolutely must not be disrespectful and offend them.
This matter was not easy to handle; he had to be careful.
If he didn't handle it well and angered these people, he wasn't afraid of a fight, but he worried that these old arms and legs wouldn't be able to withstand it. In case they got injured, it would also be a small loss for the human race.
After pondering.
Pork Rong followed the flow of the conversation and started to show off his acting skills, speaking out to test the waters first.
"That's right."
"I am indeed a current high-level figure of Cloud Star."
"Seniors, today's matter is entirely a misunderstanding. Could you please do me a favor and leave it at that? Another day, this junior will definitely visit to express my gratitude."
As his voice resonated.
Pork Rong nodded and clasped his fists in a salute. His whole body exuded waves of a superior's aura. Even though he was just a butcher now, the aura of the genuine Lord of Cloud Star seemed even stronger than before.
Although he appeared to be wearing coarse clothes with sparse stubble, his demeanor remained full of nobility, and his etiquette was impeccable.
That appearance and bearing seemed completely mismatched, giving off an indescribably bizarre sense of deja vu, yet at this moment, it radiated an astonishing brilliance, like a master who had returned to his original simplicity revealing his true identity.
At this instant.
The four butcher shop assistants watching from afar showed reverence in their eyes, and their tense moods relaxed quite a bit.
However.
After the perfect opening, the ancient phantoms suddenly turned hostile and began to scold him.
"Hmph!"
"To think you have such a cultivation realm, yet you cannot distinguish friend from foe, and insist on shielding a demon race member to become the Star Lord?"
"Face? You are nothing but a junior with a bit of cultivation. In front of this seat, what face do you have to speak of?"
"When we severed the demon path back in the day, your ancestors were not even born yet. On what basis do you deserve to bargain here? Hurry up and strike to slay the evil demon, this is your only choice!"
"Could it be that you want us to strike personally?!"
Waves of deep voices echoed. The phantoms blew their beards and glared, full of imposing might.
Behind them, Jiang Yuan, who had been quietly watching for a long time, also slightly darkened his eyes.
These ancient existences spanned across the long river of time; their experience and cultivation were both terrifyingly formidable, and their tempers were also extraordinarily large. They absolutely did not allow anyone to disobey their will.
It was as if their words were the absolute truth of the world.
Just a few words made the surrounding air several times colder!
Seeing this.
Pork Rong frowned slightly and had no choice but to try his best to explain.
"Everyone."
"This junior has unavoidable difficulties. This matter is of great importance, and the karma involved is unimaginable. It is truly inconvenient to rashly disclose it. I ask that you seniors stop here. In the future, this junior will definitely visit personally to explain everything!"
Who knew that as soon as his voice fell.
The phantoms' anger grew even stronger, and they actually cursed out loud!
"Absolute nonsense!"
"We have passed through more than just one epoch; how could a junior like you understand what we know? Even if we were in a long slumber of quiet cultivation, we still know that Cloud Star has long lost its former glory. What kind of karma could there be that even we cannot imagine?"
"You dare use such ridiculous words to fool us? Why don't you look at what kind of existences are standing here!"
"The way this old man sees it, perhaps it is precisely because of sneaky people like you that Cloud Star has become increasingly decadent, with each generation worse than the last!"
"A lowly junior actually dares to disobey us to protect the demon race. This is truly rebellion, absolute rebellion!"
"This seat sees you are so eager to protect the demon, I'm afraid you've long harbored a rebellious heart?!"
As the curses echoed, the terrifying aura stirred up the wind and clouds. The Star Lord's Mansion was instantly razed to the ground, and sand and stones flooded the entire Luohai City. Within a thousand miles, no other figure could stand their ground.
The next instant, the sky was already covered in dark clouds, with thunder and lightning intertwining!
"Crack!"
A startling thunderbolt struck down like a heavenly pillar, sweeping up giant boulders and debris as it flew over!
Pork Rong waved his hand to block everything, his expression turning somewhat ugly.
These old seniors were a bit hard to deal with...
It was one thing that they couldn't be persuaded, but with just a few words, they threw a massive scapegoat pot at him, making him bear the title of a sinner of Cloud Star. Communicating with them was really a damn hassle!
At this moment.
Pork Rong felt it was increasingly troublesome, and couldn't help but think of certain old ladies at the vegetable market.
They wouldn't even let him take a little advantage, always demanding a bit of free meat at the drop of a hat, and always acting aggrieved as if they were the ones suffering a loss.
That attitude was exactly the damn same as these old seniors.
Pure, unadulterated unreasonableness!
The more Pork Rong thought about it, the more stifled he felt.
However, bearing a heavy responsibility, and adhering to the businessman's principle that harmony brings wealth, he had no choice but to endure it again and again.
There was no hope for these few people, so he looked towards Jiang Yuan in the distance.
Seeing this big shot with hair as white as snow and a face full of unfathomable profoundness, looking much more refined than the rest of the old men, perhaps he could still listen to human reason...
Thinking of this, Pork Rong held on to his last hope and spoke up while gazing at him.
"Senior, please see clearly!"
"There truly are unavoidable difficulties in this matter..."
Before he could finish his words, Jiang Yuan, clad in a gray robe, had already begun to move.
Without seeing his phantom footsteps step forward, that jade-like tall figure had already crossed to the front of the group of sages. With his hands behind his back and his eyes looking down, the faint trace of appreciation previously in his eyes had vanished without a trace.
As he raised his eyes to gaze, his eyes were already filled with an indifferent coldness.
His thin lips parted slightly, and his voice was like a freezing wind.
"I have traversed through the eons, and in all my life, no one has ever dared to defy me."
"Since you insist on siding with the demonic path today, there will be no way out for you."
As soon as the soft voice faded, four phantom figures channeled the power of the desolate antiquity, flashing forward with the terrifying might of thunder and lightning.
In an instant!
A horrifying pressure swept across the surrounding ruins, causing the hair of the distant butcher apprentices to stand on end in terror!
The killing intent had arrived, leaving absolutely no room for retreat!
Pork Rong had also completely lost his patience. With a darkened face, he roared back in anger!
"Fine!"
"If you want a fight, then a fight you shall have!"
Seeing that the opponents were all ancient sages of the human race, he had initially held a basic level of respect and wanted to persuade them with kind words. Who knew that these old geezers would all have their noses turned up to the sky, refusing to listen to a single word, and instead throwing a bunch of baseless accusations at him...
Now, they were even taking the initiative to attack, fully revealing their murderous intent.
They were simply pushing their luck!
What the hell was the point of trying to persuade them anymore?
Damn it!
I was just trying to respect the elderly, did you really think I was afraid of you?!
Pork Rong was instantly infuriated!
He directly rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward, erupting with his full cultivation base. With a familiar routine that was no different from his daily pig slaughtering, he charged right at the four encircling phantoms before him!
