Luo Feng was not surprised. He had long known that the Origin Continent was a cruel world. The tribes living in the wilderness might vanish without a sound one day. Once those Chaos Masters and ancient God Kings made a move, they could destroy heaven and earth.

No matter what level a cultivator was at, there were merciful ones, cold loners, and those who slaughtered all living beings solely for themselves...

This was the law of the jungle under heaven and earth.

Those cultivators who slaughter all living beings for their own sake are scum who deserve to die! Destroying such scum is likewise part of nature under heaven and earth, Luo Feng thought. It is only that my abilities are limited.

Even ancient God Kings could not affect the order of the Origin Continent.

At this moment, Moluo Sa and Mo Yu Qing Yan were both waiting for Luo Feng to make a decision.

"Qing Yan." Luo Feng looked at Mo Yu Qing Yan. "Where are your other family members?"

"My father is inside the City Lord's Mansion. The mansion is currently sealed off, so Father cannot return," Mo Yu Qing Yan explained. "My eldest brother's family is at home. My younger sister-in-law is pregnant and is recuperating there as well."

"The situation is dire now. I am preparing to leave the city," Luo Feng said. "Is your family willing to leave the city with me?"

"Of course we are willing." Mo Yu Qing Yan nodded. "I have already communicated with Father. He said that everything will follow Master's arrangements."

"Mm." Luo Feng looked at Moluo Sa. "Luo Sa, go to Dream Flower House now. Rescue the Dream Flower Mistress, A Luo Ya, and their companions."

Moluo Sa's eyes lit up, and he immediately sent mentally, "Master, if I make a move in the city, the Heart Shadow Gate and the City Lord's Mansion will notice. How much strength should I reveal?"

"Strength comparable to the Heart Eye Elder's will do. Your methods may be more formidable, but keep the power under control," Luo Feng transmitted. The outside world had long suspected that he was an elite groomed by some great power.

In particular, his rejection of the Yu Country Ruler's recruitment had made every side speculate that he had a formidable master and that Moluo Sa was his protector.

Then let the outside world's speculation come true!

"Understood." Moluo Sa had long wanted to make a move. Only with his master's permission could he bare some of his fangs.

"Begin the operation." Luo Feng waved a hand and stored Mo Yu Qing Yan away.

Luo Feng and Moluo Sa flashed simultaneously and vanished.

Inside the City Lord's Mansion.

Mo Yu Hu was alone in a room.

"Third..." When Mo Yu Hu received the news, his heart felt as though it had been twisted by knives. After his wife's death, the three children were what he cared about most in this world. He regarded them as more important than his own life.

His friendship with Luo He God Monarch, as well as the treasures he had obtained, had all been used to exchange for opportunities for his children.

Now, the third was gone.

I knew long ago that this world was like this. Mo Yu Hu's heart was filled with intense hatred. But I cannot avenge him.

That is the Heart Shadow Gate! The Heart Shadow Gate that even the entire Jiu Jiang Chaos State finds difficult to contend against. Mo Yu Hu was pained and powerless. Even the lofty Marquis Jiu Jiang was now trying to gather strength. What could a mere Void True God like him do?

My greatest fortune was being able to meet Luo He God Monarch back then, Mo Yu Hu thought. I only hope Luo He God Monarch's affairs go smoothly, and that he can take Lie Feng, Qing Yan, and the others out of Huyang City.

Mo Yu Family cave residence.

"Heart Shadow Gate!" Mo Yu Lie Feng stood beside the lake, tears in his eyes and a savage expression on his face. "You killed my brother. I, Mo Yu Lie Feng, swear that I will spare no cost to take revenge in this life! Even if it takes a thousand eras, ten thousand eras, I will never give up!"

Among the three brothers, the eldest, Mo Yu Lie Feng, had the greatest talent. He was also the fiercest, bravest, and most bloodthirsty.

The third had been the most reserved by nature, wishing only to cultivate quietly. Yet he was the first to leave.

In this world, wishing to cultivate in peace did not mean one could truly cultivate in peace.

Suddenly—

A black-robed figure stepped out from ripples in the void and appeared above the cave residence.

The instant Mo Yu Lie Feng saw him, he respectfully saluted. "God Monarch! We are all ready!"

Luo Feng nodded. With a wave of his hand, he stored away every living being and structure of the entire Mo Yu Family.

Next are the nine Weapon Forging Shops. Brother Entropy, this is all I can do for you, Luo Feng thought.

Whoosh.

Taking a single step, Luo Feng traversed the void and disappeared.

Although the Heart Shadow Gate's Gloomy Darkness Grand Formation exerted stronger spatial suppression, Luo Feng's comprehension of space had now reached an extremely profound level. In particular, with the Void Evolution Mother Tree Leaf on him, he was more compatible with space on one hand, while frequently observing the leaf also brought him gains on the other.

After the Heaven Flame Sect disbanded, its disciples went their separate ways.

Some joined other factions, while others established their own Weapon Forging Shops. The largest among them were nine Weapon Forging Shops. The Mo Yu Refining Shop established by Mo Yu Liu Xing and his wife, Mo You Chang, was particularly influential, occupying an area of ten million kilometers.

The Mo Yu Family had considerable foundations in Huyang City. Their father followed Vice City Lord Mo Li Meng; the eldest of the Mo Yu Family was the Direct Disciple of Zhu You, an Eternal True God of the Zhu Clan; and the second of the Mo Yu Family was a servant of Luo He God Monarch, who had only two servants by his side.

Thus, there were also many Heaven Flame Sect disciples following Mo Yu Liu Xing and Mo You Chang.

"Take away every treasure."

At the Mo Yu Refining Shop, whether Weapon Secret Treasures displayed for sale, stockpiled secret treasures, or all kinds of materials, everything was being carried away by Heart Shadow Gate disciples.

Moreover, many of the shop's weapon refiners were being searched. All their treasures were taken away, not even a single Chaos Stone left behind.

Whoosh.

A figure flashed and arrived at the Weapon Forging Shop. It was Luo Feng, who had traversed the void to reach it.

"Who is it? Who dares trespass into territory sealed off by my Heart Shadow Gate?" The Heart Shadow Gate disciples surrounding the area were immediately alarmed. The three Super Large Mechanical Treasures hovering in the sky also turned to look.

Luo Feng ignored them and instead looked at the many weapon refiners, apprentices, and customers in the shop. Every one of them stood there, not daring to move.

"Luo He God Monarch." Most of these weapon refiners and apprentices came from the Heaven Flame Sect, so they naturally recognized Luo Feng.

"How did Mo Yu Liu Xing die?" Luo Feng asked.

"Who are you?"

An angry shout came from outside.

"Shut up! That is Luo He God Monarch!" The originally restless Heart Shadow Gate disciples quickly fell silent.

Luo Feng ignored the commotion outside and looked at the weapon refiners.

One burly weapon refiner immediately said, "God Monarch, the Heart Shadow Gate disciples suddenly arrived today. Without saying a word, they casually pointed, and several weapon refiners, a large number of apprentices, and many customers died on the spot. The entire Weapon Forging Shop was frightened into silence. Only afterward did the Heart Shadow Gate say that all treasures and materials in the shop belonged to the Heart Shadow Gate, and that every Void True God had to hand over their treasures and submit to a search."

"As the owner of the Weapon Forging Shop, Junior Brother Mo Yu merely said that we were willing to hand over our treasures, and asked whether we could avoid being searched..." The burly weapon refiner said with grief and indignation. "The moment he spoke, the Heart Shadow Gate leader casually pointed again. Junior Brother Mo Yu, along with the surrounding weapon refiners, apprentices, and customers, were all annihilated."

"You truly dare to say it!"

At that moment, three figures walked in from outside. Leading them was a purple-robed figure. Beneath his purple robe was a divine body that seemed to be formed from condensed black liquid, and his gaze was incomparably cold. Looking at Luo Feng, he saluted. "Heart Shadow Gate disciple Chan Wu Qi greets Luo He God Monarch."

"The one who casually pointed twice and slaughtered countless living beings in the Weapon Forging Shop was you?" Luo Feng looked at him.

"It was me." Chan Wu Qi said, "My Heart Shadow Gate is benevolent. This collection of war expenses is aimed only at Eternal True Gods and Void True Gods. To make the collection proceed more smoothly, naturally we must intimidate them."

"It was him. He killed Junior Brother Mo Yu." The burly weapon refiner's eyes were crazed.

"It was indeed me."

Chan Wu Qi nodded. "While I was conducting business, he dared to open his mouth without permission. He was courting death!"

Chan Wu Qi found it perfectly natural.

Slaughtering some Void True Gods and True Gods was no more than the matter of a breath. What great matter was that?

"So that was the reason." Luo Feng understood.

Luo Feng also raised a hand and lightly pointed.

Buzz!

An invisible blade light descended, instantly annihilating Chan Wu Qi's divine body. Even as Chan Wu Qi died, his eyes were wide with disbelief. Luo He God Monarch actually dares to publicly kill an Eternal True God of my Heart Shadow Gate. Is he determined to become a complete enemy of my Heart Shadow Gate?

The sight left the other Heart Shadow Gate disciples dumbfounded. Terrified, they immediately retreated out of the Weapon Forging Shop.

Before coming to Huyang City, they had known of Luo He God Monarch's reputation. He was absolutely not someone ordinary disciples could withstand.

Whoosh.

With a wave of his hand, Luo Feng stored away every living being in the entire Weapon Forging Shop, including those customers.

At such a critical moment, Luo Feng had no time to ask for their opinions. If they wished to return, he could personally bring them back after the war ended.

In this commercial district, three Super Large Mechanical Treasures hovered in the sky, along with nineteen large flying vessels. Numerous Heart Shadow Gate disciples were looting commercial factions one after another. With Luo Feng's arrival, every Heart Shadow Gate disciple present grew tense.

"Luo He God Monarch has come!"

"Martial Uncle Chan Wu Qi has been killed!"

These Heart Shadow Gate disciples were somewhat panicked.

The three Super Large Mechanical Treasures in the sky also approached the Mo Yu Refining Shop. They too were shocked that Luo He God Monarch had directly made a move!

After all, the Heart Shadow Gate had always shown Luo He God Monarch some respect. They would not offend Luo He God Monarch or his two servants.

But...

The friends and family of his servants?

Friends Luo He God Monarch had associated with?

Luo Feng had lived in Huyang City for more than thirty eras and had met too many friends. Nearly all were Eternal True Gods; some had good relations with him, while others had merely exchanged a few words upon meeting. The Heart Shadow Gate could not possibly spare them all. As for the friends and family of his servants, the Heart Shadow Gate cared even less.

"Luo He God Monarch, you dared to kill a disciple of my Heart Shadow Gate..." One of the Super Large Mechanical Treasures was covered in dark green scales, nearly humanoid in form, with eight arms.

Whoosh!

A dazzling, terrifying blade light instantly tore through the sky. A pitch-black fissure appeared even in space as it swept directly across the Super Large Mechanical Treasure. The Super Large Mechanical Treasure was torn to pieces, and more than half the disciples within instantly died or were wounded! The eleven Eternal True Gods commanding the Super Large Mechanical Treasure were all killed.

The sight left the many Heart Shadow Gate disciples frozen stiff, chills rising in their hearts.

"Run!" The surviving disciples from the shattered Super Large Mechanical Treasure fled in terror. The two Super Large Mechanical Treasures were fleeing even faster.

Luo Feng walked out of the Weapon Forging Shop and looked up at the sky. Coldly, he said, "When I am conducting business, you dare to open your mouths? You are truly courting death."

Luo Feng's words spread mightily through the void, and the fleeing Heart Shadow Gate disciples heard every word clearly.

Looking at the shattered Super Large Mechanical Treasure falling from the sky, Luo Feng waved his hand and stored it away. Then, with one step, he traversed the void toward the next Weapon Forging Shop.
