Willow King

When Vulture Li Yao learned that Luo Feng was a Mind Controller, he was so furious that his head spun. Months of pent-up resentment had finally found an outlet. "Luo Feng, Luo Feng!!!"

"Kill him. He has to die." Vinina's Chinese was not standard, but the murderous intent in her voice was easy to hear. Her gaze was like poisoned needles, and her voice was shrill. "Isn't he going to Australia Continent for a life-and-death adventure? This is the perfect opportunity. Kill him while he's there! Other than that, we don't have the slightest chance. Not only does Xiao Yu value him, now even Hong has taken an interest in him."

The two truly lived up to their names: Vulture and Scorpion. They not only wanted to eliminate Luo Feng, but also wipe out his entire family.

However, the only forces Scorpion could rely on in Huaxia were some of the HR Alliance's underground powers, and she could not bring in special equipment.

When Scorpion hired a Mercenary Group, Luo Feng's status meant that only three War Gods were willing to go to Australia Continent for the enormous reward. Vulture Li Yao, wearing the Black God Set, personally led this temporary War God Squad.

To ensure nothing went wrong, Scorpion had obtained a Laser Cannon.

As for taking action against Luo Feng's family, the HR Alliance's chief leader had rejected it before the two even set off for Australia. Otherwise, the entire Polenus Family would face sanctions.

The only people capable of making the HR Alliance's chief leader act this way were Thor and Hong.

This development made Vulture Li Yao change his mind. He understood that he had become Hong's whetstone for training Luo Feng, so he had Scorpion Vinina remain in Paris Base City.

Meanwhile, Luo Feng and the other 183 trainees soon arrived in a plain region of Australia Continent. After delivering them there, all the War God instructors returned by passenger plane.

Xiao Yu, however, had been monitoring the situation from the Qiankun Intelligent Fighter.

Every trainee had a tracking device on them. Based on the tracking data, their locations and biological conditions could be determined.

Luo Feng also understood that this trip to Australia was the best chance for Li Yao and his wife to make a move. They would never let it pass. The astronomical bounty of 100 billion Huaxia Coin was still hanging over him. He did not dare gamble, nor did he want to drag his classmates into it.

So he acted alone.

Although Li Yao remained a threat, Luo Feng was not afraid. He was a Mind Controller and could fly.

So he chose to launch a preemptive ambush. He just had not expected Li Yao to possess a Black God Set as well. Neither of them could do anything to the other.

Li Yao's offensive power was stronger than Luo Feng's, but he had no long-range attacks.

Luo Feng, meanwhile, did not dare let Li Yao get close. Although Li Yao could not break through the Black God Set, the impact alone was more than Luo Feng could comfortably endure.

Under normal circumstances, Li Yao could only passively take the beating. But he had three War God companions, as well as a Laser Cannon.

In the end, after killing the three War Gods, Luo Feng could only flee under the threat of the Laser Cannon.

However, there was one universally recognized rule among humans: Laser Cannons were forbidden from being used against humans. How could the Limit Martial Arts School fail to learn of such an energy attack being used on the closely watched Australia Continent?

Puka and Tie Zong, two War Gods from the Limit Martial Arts School, arrived at the Laser Cannon's location in a Disc Fighter and confiscated it.

Luo Feng fled while Li Yao pursued him, and the two entered an island region shrouded in dense fog.

When Xiao Yu discovered that Luo Feng's tracker had entered the Mist Island region, he immediately launched his fighter and headed there.

He had not been far away to begin with, and arrived in less than half an hour.

Not long after Xiao Yu entered the fog-covered region, he spotted Li Yao.

"Vinina, inform your family about this and have them send some powerful experts over," Li Yao instructed. "Preferably experts with Black God Sets, or powerful Mind Controllers. Ah! Why is Xiao Yu here?"

Li Yao stared in shock at Xiao Yu, who stood in the air above him.

"Now that I'm here, does the HR Alliance still want to meddle?" Xiao Yu said domineeringly.

In a flash, he appeared beside Li Yao and casually slapped him away. Even the Black God Set was left with a hole, while the shoulder struck by the blow was smashed into bloody pulp.

"N-No, I wouldn't dare!" Li Yao said in horror. Trembling, he struggled back to his feet. He had not expected Xiao Yu, who had only recently become a Councillor level expert, to be this strong.

"Yao, Yao, what happened?" Vinina's voice kept coming through the Communication Watch.

"Get lost already!" Xiao Yu barked.

Li Yao could only stagger away. However, he did not go far, unwilling to give up such enormous wealth.

"Luo Feng, come out. Hurry up and report that there are Spirits of Plants and Trees here," Xiao Yu said with a smile.

He had noticed Luo Feng long ago.

"I wanted to wait for the people from Europe to arrive first and make them do the work for nothing." Luo Feng emerged from behind a giant tree a hundred meters away, then reached Xiao Yu's side in two flashes.

"There's no need. Hurry up and report it. According to the Limit Martial Arts School's internal distribution rules, whoever discovers a treasure site and reports it can receive 10% of what the school obtains after verification. Those who go into battle and take part in the extraction receive a total of 30%, distributed according to contribution. The remaining 60% belongs to the school as a whole. If you wait too long, there will be nothing left," Xiao Yu said with a smile.

"What about you?" Luo Feng hesitated.

"The wealth represented by these Spirits of Plants and Trees means nothing to me." Xiao Yu waved his right hand, and a Universe Coin danced at his fingertips.

Luo Feng's eyes immediately went blank.

"This is?"

His Psychic Power gave him keen senses. The energy contained within the Universe Crystal shocked him. What was even more astonishing was that this small cube remained stable despite containing such tremendous energy.

Xiao Yu waved his hand, and the Universe Crystal vanished.

"A Universe Crystal. It was condensed from the Universe Origin Energy of this universe."

Luo Feng no longer hesitated. He took out his phone and reported the discovery of a large number of Spirits of Plants and Trees on Australia Continent, along with the coordinates.

After a long while, a disc-shaped fighter hovered in the air above Mist Island. Its cabin door opened directly.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The black-robed Katerlan, the burly Keita, and the lean Ivan leaped from midair and rapidly fell toward the ground below.

"The Polenus Family's people have arrived." Luo Feng revealed a faint smile.

"Stop right there! This is a treasure site discovered by my Limit Martial Arts School." Xiao Yu flashed forward and instantly appeared before the three of them.

"Councillor Xiao Yu!" the black-robed Katerlan cried in shock.

Ruthless people rarely wasted words, and Xiao Yu happened to be one of them.

He attacked immediately. Just as he had done to Li Yao before, he flashed to Katerlan's side and drove his right fist heavily into Katerlan's head amid his terror.

Katerlan was sent flying at least a thousand meters. Although Xiao Yu had not used his full strength, and although Katerlan had the protection of a Black God Set, the blow still knocked him unconscious.

The burly Keita and the lean Ivan hurriedly tried to act, but before they could move, Xiao Yu sent each of them flying a thousand meters with a kick. They crashed through dozens of trees before falling heavily to the ground, seriously injured and unable to rise.

Li Yao, who had just arrived nearby, was utterly horrified. "Councillor Xiao Yu is actually this overbearing. He did not even ask a single question before attacking."

Xiao Yu merely glanced at Li Yao before returning. That one look made Li Yao's legs go weak, leaving him unable to stand.

"If you want to obtain the Spirits of Plants and Trees from these nine willow trees, you must first deal with the Willow King in the center, the one more than three meters thick. Luo Feng, do you want to give it a try?" Xiao Yu asked with a smile.

"When I first came here, it attacked me. This Willow King is the strongest. Its pale golden willow branches are two to three hundred meters long, enough to cover this entire place and reach underground to protect its roots. I tried using throwing knives before, but they could barely do anything to those pale golden branches. Even if I damaged them, they would recover immediately."

Xiao Yu's figure seemed to Teleport as he arrived before a willow tree more than a meter thick. A flash of lightning passed, and the thousand-year willow tree fell.

A soul-stirring green light flew into the air. Xiao Yu waved his hand, sending that green light toward Luo Feng.

"Luo Feng, the essence of this Thousand-Year Willow Heart should increase your strength considerably," Xiao Yu said with a smile. "Remember to pierce the crystalline outer shell, then drink the liquid essence inside. Do not swallow the crystal shell."

"Thank you!" Luo Feng said gratefully.

"This was yours to begin with. I'm only giving it to you early," Xiao Yu said. "Break through here. I'll stand guard for you."

After Luo Feng used the Thousand-Year Willow Heart, the aura he emitted continued to grow stronger. He rose from beginner War God to the middle stage of intermediate War God before finally stopping, while his Psychic Power reached peak War God level.

He was even stronger than Katerlan had been.

Luo Feng's breakthrough took a full half hour.

"Luo Feng, try again now."

"Alright." Luo Feng nodded.

Now, the impact force of one of Luo Feng's throwing knives exceeded 500,000 kilograms, and he could control six throwing knives.

It could be said that he was equivalent to six Advanced War Gods.

The golden willow branches that had previously taken all his effort to sever with a single throwing knife were now easily cut apart.

He continuously used four throwing knives to block the Willow King's attacks while the other two attacked the remaining seven willow trees.

Very quickly, he obtained seven Thousand-Year Willow Hearts.

He tossed two of them to Xiao Yu. "Returning these to you."

"You're quite generous." Xiao Yu smiled.

"One thing is one thing," Luo Feng said.

Then he focused on attacking the Ten-Thousand-Year Willow King. Under Luo Feng's fierce assault, the Willow King was ultimately defeated. After all its golden willow branches were severed and its trunk cut apart, a fist-sized oval crystal appeared.

Luo Feng drew it into his hand. Green liquid flowed within the crystal, mixed with a trace of gold. Just looking at it in his palm with the naked eye made one's heart tremble.

Then he looked toward Li Yao. "Li Yao! You can't escape!"

Li Yao was terrified and hurriedly fled, shouting at the same time, "Katerlan, the four of us should join forces and deal with Luo Feng!"

"Sorry."

Katerlan, who had awakened, gave a faint smile and signaled Keita and Ivan, whose injuries had partly recovered. The three of them had gone through countless battles together, so they naturally understood one another's intentions.

They fled in another direction.

Rumble~~~ As Li Yao ran at top speed, the shockwaves produced along his path often shattered the surrounding grass and vegetation.

Luo Feng's six throwing knives struck Li Yao three times in succession, but he still could not kill him.

It was all thanks to the Black God Set. Without it, Li Yao would have died long ago.

The two chased each other for a long time, and Li Yao was in a miserable state. When the six black streaks of light struck him again, Li Yao did not use the impact to continue running straight. Instead, he abruptly turned. Luo Feng had assumed Li Yao would continue in a straight line and shot far ahead, losing track of him in that instant.

Luo Feng could only return in frustration.

Suddenly, a fiery red streak of light flew rapidly from the distant horizon. Like a meteor, it was extremely conspicuous in the darkness of the night.

The fiery red streak stopped before Xiao Yu and Luo Feng.

"Xiao Yu!" the man within the flames said in English.

"Councillor Fal!" Katerlan and the others exclaimed from afar.

"I just happened to be cultivating in seclusion on Australia Continent..." Councillor Fal, bathed in flames, had not even finished speaking.

Before Xiao Yu punched him away. Fal fell from the sky and hit the ground, the flames covering his body extinguishing.

"Who are you trying to fool? Everything here belongs to my Limit Martial Arts School!" Xiao Yu spat after retracting his fist.

At the same time, a purplish-red triangular fighter hovered above Xiao Yu.

"A fighter from my Limit Martial Arts School." Luo Feng showed a hint of delight.

"Greetings, Councillor Xiao!" Two figures hovered beside Xiao Yu.

"Greetings, Councillor Liu. Greetings, Iceberg," Xiao Yu said.

"You're Luo Feng?" Inspector Liu asked.

"Greetings, Inspectors." Luo Feng bowed at once.

"How are things below?" Inspector Liu asked from the side.

Luo Feng reported everything that had just happened.

The two first glanced at Fal, who lay unable to rise, then looked at Xiao Yu, their eyes filled with wariness.

Inspector Liu looked toward Iceberg. "It's up to you."

Iceberg flew into the fog-covered sky. He possessed extremely powerful scouting abilities and could quickly locate the Spirits of Plants and Trees.

Boom~~~

The entire Mist Island suddenly trembled.

Xiao Yu was delighted. The Cloud-Soaring Vine had emerged.
