After the Silver Snake couple and Arthurs left, only Lin Feng and the Lord of Death were left in the Great Hall.🎄☝ ❻➈Ş 🐣🍩
The Sovereign of Death stared at Lin Feng, his tone cold as he said, "I didn't expect you to be a Chief Sovereign. Were you doing that on purpose at the Netherworld Hotel?"
Considering Lin Feng's previous actions, the Sovereign of Death easily deduced that Lin Feng's actions at the Netherworld Hotel were all deliberate. Furthermore, recalling Lin Feng's words before entering Netherworld Mountain —that after obtaining the Netherworld Fruit, he would discuss life and ideals with her— the Sovereign of Death was filled with rage. She had never been so thoroughly humiliated before.
Lin Feng waved his hand and said, "Alright, don't talk to me like that. You're such a beautiful woman, why do you have to put on such a cold face?"
"That's just my personality," the Sovereign of Death said coldly.
"Compared to you, I still prefer that pretty red-haired girl at the Netherworld Hotel down the mountain. If you continue to speak to me in that cold tone, I wouldn't mind kidnapping her to Yulan and talking to her about life and ideals," Lin Feng said with a smile.
"How dare you!" The Sovereign of Death was furious, but she couldn't do anything about Lin Feng. She could clearly sense that Lin Feng's strength was no weaker than hers. Before, the Netherworld Chief Sovereign had communicated with her, saying that a Chief Sovereign whose strength far surpassed his had come from the Yulan Plane. The Sovereign of Death didn't quite believe it, but now that the facts were right in front of her, she found it even harder to believe.
All along, the only people who could rival her were the other three Rule Sovereign, but now Lin Feng suddenly appeared, leaving her somewhat at a loss. If she hadn't sensed the heavy earth aura and the warm water element aura on Lin Feng, and knew that Lin Feng was the Earth Element and Water Sovereign, she would have suspected that one of the other three Rule Sovereign had fallen.
After a long pause, the Sovereign of Death calmed his anger and his tone returned to calm, " Lin Feng, I heard that you came here this time to find the spirits of your relatives and help them regain their memories, is that right?"
Lin Feng nodded. He knew that the Sovereign of Death must have learned the purpose of his trip from the Netherworld Chief Sovereign. "Yes, I would appreciate your help."
"According to my own rules, since you've fought your way from the Netherworld Mountain all the way here, I should grant you one request," said the Death Sovereign. He then glanced at Lin Feng before continuing, "However, you killed Yinawi's nine children, so by all accounts, you should also be killed to avenge them!"
"You broke through, so I should reward you; you killed Yinawi's nine children, so I should punish you! That way, the reward and punishment cancel each other out, and I won't grant your request," the Death Sovereign said indifferently.
Lin Feng immediately understood that the Sovereign of Death was retaliating for his earlier flirtatious remarks. Just as Lin Feng was about to speak, the Sovereign of Death said, "However, it's not impossible for me to agree to help you with this favor."
"What are your conditions?" Lin Feng naturally knew that the Sovereign of Death wanted to negotiate.
The Sovereign of Death did not rush to speak. Instead, he stepped down from his throne and walked straight to Lin Feng before saying, "You should know that even among the Chief Sovereign, there are factions, right?"
Lin Feng nodded; he naturally knew this. While battles between Chief Sovereign were rare, occurring perhaps only once every few hundred million years, when they did happen, Chief Sovereign almost always perished. Many Lower Sovereign and Mid-level Sovereign felt insecure, and therefore, they often attached themselves to powerful Chief Sovereign for protection. The strongest Chief Sovereign were naturally the Four Edicts- based Sovereign, each with a dozen or even twenty Chief Sovereign Sovereign them. Thus, these Chief Sovereign were roughly divided into four factions. Of course, besides these, there were also some independent beings who did not belong to any faction.
Seeing Lin Feng nod, the Sovereign of Death said, "As long as you stand on the same side as me, I will grant your request."
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng agreed almost without hesitation. The Sovereign of Death's request was not only not harmful to him, but also beneficial. He was going to fight against the Fate Sovereign in the future, and by joining the Sovereign of Death's camp, he could make the Fate Sovereign, Oufu, think twice before dealing with him.
"Tell me the information about the person you want me to find," said the Sovereign of Death.
"The first one is my father, Hogg Baruch!" Lin Feng took a deep breath and said slowly.
At this moment, Lin Feng was extremely uneasy. He was afraid that the Sovereign of Death would tell him that the spirit of his father Hogg, had been devoured by other spirits after his death.
"Found it." The Sovereign of Death nodded. "Your father is now Saint Realm Undead, no wonder he's still alive. He's also from the Azure Dragon Clan, a formidable soul."
"Father, is he still here?" Linley was overjoyed, and his anxious heart calmed down.
This result was within Lin Feng's expectations. He knew that because his father was a member of the Azure Dragon Clan, his soul was protected by the Innate Azure Light, and the undead he became after death would definitely be very powerful, with a high chance of surviving in the Undead Realm.
"The second one," said the Sovereign of Death.
"My wife Jenny's brother, Keane Jax." Lin Feng was somewhat confident that Keane's spirit could survive in the Undead Realm. After all, he knew that Keane had been Eighth-level Warrior when he died of old age, and would definitely be an eighth-level undead after death. An eighth-level undead should be considered a powerful existence in the Undead Realm, so the chances of him surviving were high.
The Sovereign of Death searched for a moment through the Heart of the Netherworld, then nodded and said, "He is still alive, and is also a spirit of the Saint Realm."
Upon hearing this, Lin Feng was overjoyed. He knew that Jenny and Keane had a deep sibling bond, and he also had a good impression of Keane. Back then, it was Lin Feng who had guided Keane into the path of warrior training. After emerging from seclusion and learning of Keane's death, Lin Feng felt a pang of regret.
The third one.
"My brother Beibei's parents," Lin Feng said quickly. Lin Feng had to admit that the Heart of the Netherworld was quite miraculous; it could find his relatives and friends with just a few simple pieces of information.
"You're quite lucky." The Sovereign of Death opened his eyes and looked at Lin Feng, saying, "They are all Saint Realm undead, and rather powerful Saint Realm at that."
"Is there any more?" the Sovereign of Death asked.
Lin Feng hesitated for a moment before speaking, "My wife Dilia's parents."
Lin Feng had no good feelings towards Dilia's parents. Whether in the original story or in his own life, they had tried their best to obstruct Dilia's relationship with him, which made Lin Feng's goodwill towards them extremely low.
But no matter what, they were Dilia's parents, not his in-laws. If Dilia saw that he had saved Jenny's brother but not her parents, Dilia would definitely have reservations. For the sake of family harmony, Lin Feng had to save his in-laws, no matter how much he disliked them.
The Sovereign of Death glanced at Lin Feng, a strange look in his eyes, but said nothing, and began to search with the Heart of the Netherworld.
Not long after, the Sovereign of Death opened his eyes. "They are dead."
"Dead?" Lin Feng was taken aback, but quickly accepted the fact. Although Dilia's parents were both skilled in magic and warriors, their strength was very weak, and they never reached level five in their lives. With such strength, their chances of survival in the Undead Realm, where the mortality rate was extremely high, were indeed very low.
Next, Lin Feng, clinging to a sliver of hope, asked the Sovereign of Death to help him find Jenny's parents, but the result was the same: they were both dead.
Lin Feng felt some regret about the result, but it wasn't unacceptable. After all, he had never met Jenny's parents and had no emotional connection with them. The reason he asked the Sovereign of Death to help him search was simply out of consideration for Jenny.
