Chapter 564: Chapter 543: The Arrival of the Sunshine King (1/3)

The two great Moonlight Emperors of the Meng Family were both startled, the Mo Family? Did they know anyone from the Mo Family?

"Let them in!" Meng Tianjun quickly made the decision.

It was only a moment later that the two great Moonlight Emperors of the Meng Family saw a group of people step in, led by a woman with graceful bearing and a lithe figure. Her face was as beautiful as a blooming flower, but her expression was as cold as ice, seemingly able to freeze the heavens and the earth.

Moonlight Emperor!

This woman was none other than a Moonlight Emperor!

Cultivators judge each other based on cultivation level, not age; even if the other party is a seven-year-old child, if they have the cultivation level of the Sunshine Realm, they must respectfully address them as senior, or else it would be considered disrespect.

According to the rules of the Immortal Realm, such disrespect can be punished with death on the spot!

"Miss Mo?" Meng Tianjun asked tentatively, his words very polite. Despite being a peak Moonlight Emperor, able to fear no Moonlight being of the Third Layer Heaven, the other party was far too young!

Being so young and already reaching the status of a Moonlight Emperor only indicated one thing: the other party came from a noble family—at least one considered noble compared to the Meng Family.

This group from the Mo Family was naturally led by Mo Yuyan and her subordinates. She had suffered a great humiliation at the hands of Zhou Heng, how could she not seek revenge? Yet the Hai Immortal City was too large, how could her few people search it thoroughly?

Even if she offered a high bounty, it would still require time!

After a fruitless month of searching, she suddenly received news of the incidents occurring here. For no reason, she intuitively felt that this matter was related to Zhou Heng, so she immediately led her subordinates here.

"My surname is Mo, Mo Yuyan!" Mo Yuyan’s voice remained icily cold, showing no intention of giving any respect to a peak Moonlight Emperor. In fact, there was no need, she was a Moonlight Emperor herself. Although she had not yet reached the peak level, her family had a Sunshine Sovereign, why would she need to be polite to a Moonlight Emperor?

"May I ask what brings Miss Mo to visit the Han Family?" Although Meng Tianjun saw the indifference in Mo Yuyan’s eyes, he didn’t want to act out or it could be said there were concerns!

"The one who has been harassing you these past few days, is it this person?" Mo Yuyan flicked her right hand, and a wave of Divine Sense surged towards Meng Tianjun and Meng Ye.

"Indeed, it is this person!" Meng Tianjun and Meng Ye said at the same time, although both had the cultivation of Moonlight Emperors, their faces were filled with a teeth-gritting expression at the moment.

It must be Zhou Heng! Only that demon could possess the ability to infuriate people to such an extent!

Mo Yuyan gave a nod and said, "I want this person dead!"

The two great Moonlight Emperors of the Meng Family were overjoyed. They were already at their wit’s end, but with the help from another Moonlight Emperor, it would naturally take a significant weight off their shoulders! Besides, Zhou Heng only knew that the Meng Family had two great Moonlight Emperors; if Mo Yuyan were to lay in ambush, she could perhaps act as a surprise force and capture that thieving brat in one swoop!

"Miss Mo, may I know what the grievance between you and this person is?" Meng Ye asked. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, and he asked this question hoping to stir up a shared hatred in Mo Yuyan for better cooperation.

That really hit a sore spot!

Just thinking of the vile acts Zhou Heng had done to her, Mo Yuyan turned icy cold and glared fiercely at Meng Ye, her gaze as if it could kill.

Meng Ye had no idea that his question would provoke such a reaction. He looked bewildered, turning his head to see Meng Tianjun, the old ancestor who was more than five thousand years older than him, also wearing a face of puzzlement.

"Re-, report to the Family Head, someone from the Fan Family has come!" At this moment, another subordinate reported.

Meng Tianjun’s heart skipped a beat, and his face uncontrollably paled, as he hastily asked, "Which member of the Fan Family is it?"

"Fan Yuehong!"

Hiss!

Meng Tianjun and Meng Ye both sucked in a breath of cold air.

Who was Fan Yuehong? He was the father of Fan Tong, with only such a son, and a child gained in his later years, he had spoiled Fan Tong to that kind of character!

More importantly, Fan Yuehong was a Sunshine King!

In wrath for the loss of his son, it was entirely possible that he would vent his anger and flatten the Meng Family!

"Please, please!" Meng Tianjun’s voice trembled as he said two words and then quickly corrected himself, "I shall personally go to welcome him!"

The Sunshine King coming to the small North Hai City, who could not tremble with fear!

It was no exaggeration to say that if the Sunshine King wished to wreak havoc, the entire North Hai City would be devastated, entirely bereft of life!

Of course, if Fan Yuehong dared to do that, he would inevitably be subject to the sanctions of the Immortal Realm’s rules, either be blasted to death or flee from the Forty-Nine Immortal City to become a bandit of the Star Sea. No one could cover for such a huge crime!

To eradicate one or two families, the higher-ups might turn a blind eye, but to annihilate an Immortal City on the level of a continent... that would truly be a huge uproar!

Soon after, Meng Tianjun and Meng Ye escorted an old man in his sixties into the room. The elder had black hair and snow-white eyebrows, a rather burly figure, an aura that was inscrutable and profound, yet exuded immense power.

Naturally, this was Fan Yuehong.

Throughout the journey, Fan Yuehong scolded the two old ancestors of the Meng Family mercilessly, not holding back a single word, as his spittle sprayed directly onto the faces of these two Moonlight Emperors.

Poor Moonlight Emperors, though usually high and mighty, did not dare to even breathe too loudly in front of the Sunshine King, and were reprimanded as if they were grandchildren. Yet, the harsher they were scolded, the more relieved their hearts felt.

Are they masochistic?

Of course not. The fact that Fan Yuehong was willing to waste his breath to scold them meant that this Big Shot was not planning to vent his wrath on them for the time being; otherwise, he would have simply gone on a killing spree!

The news of Fan Tong’s death reached the Fan Family through the Message Transmitting Stone almost immediately. There was no need to deploy an expert like Fan Yuehong to capture a mere Moonlight King, but the person who died was his only son, wasn’t it?

If he did not avenge this, he would be unworthy of being a father!

Fan Yuehong had been thinking, all the way there, about using all kinds of torture to punish Zhou Heng. Without tormenting the murderer to the point of begging for life yet being unable to die for hundreds of years, he would not be able to release his anger!

But upon entering the Meng Family, he discovered that the killer of his son had not been captured yet!

The old man naturally flew into a rage and almost slapped the two fools of the Meng Family to death in a fit of fury! It was only because he did not know who exactly the killer of his son was that he spared these two idiots!

But that was only temporary!

The Meng Family had allowed his only son to die; they could not escape the blame for failing to protect him properly! Since his son had died, what right did the people of the Meng Family have to live on?

If it were anyone else from the Fan Family who had died, Fan Yuehong would happily have used this opportunity to extort the Meng Family. But now, it was his son who had died, his only son! All he needed was blood, only lives!

He wanted everyone at this market to accompany his son in death!

With the ability of the Sunshine King, slaughtering millions was still something he could handle, and moreover, he had a justified cause behind him.

After listening to Meng Tianjun and Meng Ye recount the incidents of these days, Fan Yuehong sneered in his heart, remarking that they deserved it! His son died, and did the Meng Family really think they could get away with just some compensation?

However, Zhou Heng was too arrogant, and not without some ability, as a mere Moonlight King had caused such chaos in the Meng Family!

"Senior, this young man is extremely evil, he possesses the Thirteen Wheels Waning Moon!" Meng Ye said.

"Thirteen Wheels Waning Moon!" Even Fan Yuehong, as the Sunshine King, couldn’t help but gasp in shock. Damn, the Thirteen Wheels Waning Moon, what a concept! Unlike the Meng Family, the Fan Family was a powerful force in North Shen City, also known as North Nine City, far more widely connected than the Meng Family.

Fan Yuehong had vaguely heard that Ten Wheels Moon was not the limit, and there were indeed extraordinary beings who had possessed Eleven Wheels Moon or even Twelve Wheels Moon throughout history!

The most recent and famous among them was the madman who proclaimed himself the Great Eternal Emperor, who also had Thirteen Wheels Moon. In just seventy to eighty thousand years, he advanced his cultivation level to the Creation Realm and brazenly broke into Juexian City, after which his life or death was unknown.

Although that was the case, it also proved how terrifying it was to possess Thirteen Wheels Moon.

Suddenly, Fan Yuehong felt extremely relieved that he had come in person! Otherwise, if another member of the clan had heard about Thirteen Wheels Moon, they would certainly have set aside the revenge for Fan Tong and instead tried to recruit Zhou Heng!

—To exchange a worthless son for a future super expert, this deal was a massive profit no matter how you looked at it!

Fan Yuehong’s eyes were icy cold; no matter how extraordinary Zhou Heng was, since he dared to kill his son, even if the king of heaven came, he could not save Zhou Heng’s life!

The old man’s eyes swept over, landing on Mo Yuyan and her companions. With his keen Divine Sense, he had already noticed these people but had previously been in no mood to pay attention, and so he only now took a moment to look over.

Hmm? Such a pretty little lady, and her cultivation level is not weak!

Just that would have been enough, but as Fan Yuehong took a closer look at Mo Yuyan’s beautiful face, excitement surged within him.

At his age, he had enjoyed all the pleasures life had to offer, what kind of beautiful woman had he not been with? What kind of strong liquor had he not tasted? The only thing left that he still desired was power itself; his passion for beauty had faded with the years, though he would still occasionally indulge.

But no woman could excite him anymore!

Then why did seeing Mo Yuyan make his heart feel like boiling? Simple, because this woman bore the features of one likely to bear many children!

In the past, he would have glanced over and moved on, but now things were different; he had just lost his only son! Immortal Essence Blood was dense and making offspring was exceptionally rare; even after diligently trying for over forty thousand years, he had only managed to have Fan Tong, his solitary child!

With at most a few thousand years of life left, and with aging causing his vigor to wane, it would be even more difficult to have progeny!

And yet this woman seemingly had the features suggesting she could bear many children, meaning if he was willing to exert the effort, the possibility of having sons again was not so fanciful!

Fan Yuehong suddenly wanted to laugh out loud.

Fan Tong was not naturally suited for cultivation, and though he had been forcibly raised to the Immortal Realm by him, that was his limit. As a father with a high status, he naturally hoped his son would be just as exceptional, but alas... Even an ugly son is one’s own flesh and blood - who else would cherish him if not his father?

Mo Yuyan was young but had already achieved the cultivation level of a Moonlight Emperor, and he was the Sunshine King himself. The progeny from their union, regardless of which side’s lineage they inherited, would undoubtedly be extraordinarily talented!

Having lost a foolish son, yet gaining a superior descendant in return, Fan Yuehong was naturally pleased!
