Don't Provoke Me (1)
Most Kai Star people were dissatisfied with the fact that two 'lowly' Earthlings had come to the prestigious Kai Star Yellow City.
"Hmph, so we had no idea who they were. Turns out they're from a lowly super-star region. Who let them in? Throw them out immediately!"
"Yes, these lowly Earthlings don't deserve to be here. Guards, drag them out!"
"His Majesty will be here soon, so whatever you do, don't let him see these two!"
The voices were incessant, but Li Wei paid no attention to them. He only wanted to get information about the Vampire Starfolk as soon as possible so he could get to the Blood Clan Star Domain sooner.
Nina is still in the hands of the Vampire Starfolk, and the thought of her gives Li Wei an urge to kill.
Meanwhile, 'An Hei' stood to the side, seemingly lost in thought, like an old monk in deep meditation. Of course, without Li Wei's true energy protecting him, he would never have been so relaxed.
At this moment, two people walked in through the door. The one leading them was none other than the Second Prince. When he saw the Red Armor, he let out a cold snort and then walked over.
"Seventh Brother, how dare you come back?"
When the second prince appeared, everyone in the hall fell silent. They dared not interrupt the conversation between the princes.
Red Armor, also known as the Seventh Prince, sneered, "Why wouldn't I dare to come back?"
The second prince, as if he had a trump card, laughed and said, "Since you're pretending to be confused, don't blame me for exposing your secret as your older brother!"
Red Armor remained silent, staring at the Second Prince before him. He appeared calm, but the heat emanating from his red armor suggested that his inner turmoil was far from tranquil.
The opponent's performance made the Second Prince feel even more confident of victory. After all, the fall of the Destroyer was a major event for any star system.
Because the seventh prince is involved, he absolutely cannot escape responsibility. Even his father cannot cover it up. If the king stirs things up again, the seventh prince will surely be executed for a serious crime.
Thinking of this, the second prince revealed a sinister smile.
Seeing this, Li Wei sighed. He didn't want to get involved in this troublesome conflict, but he had to help Red Armor in order to get information about the Vampire Starfolk as soon as possible.
On the surface, the relationship between these two is already one of irreconcilable enmity, making conflict inevitable.
Just then, someone called out from the side hall, "His Highness has arrived!"
Upon hearing this, the Second Prince and the Seventh Prince, who had been on the verge of exchanging barbs, both calmed down and stood at attention, awaiting the arrival of the King of Kai Star.
Soon, a Kai Star man emerged from the side hall. He was taller and stronger than the average Kai Star man, and his innate armor was golden. However, unlike the Golden Armor Kai Star man that Li Wei had killed, the gold of his armor had a very textured feel and appeared exceptionally heavy.
This is the King of the Kai Star, Barak Chi.
"I heard that Seventh Brother is back. How was your trip to Earth Star? Did it go smoothly?" His voice was deep and authoritative, conveying authority without anger.
Li Wei glanced at the tall Kai Star man and silently compared him to himself. Clearly, in terms of combat strength alone, this Golden Armor Kai Star man was at least several, or even more powerful.
However, sometimes, combat power doesn't mean everything. Both the Lightning True Essence and the Blood Control Method are unique skills that can kill enemies of higher levels.
Red Armor looked visibly uneasy. He first glanced at Li Wei furtively, thinking to himself that his life was now entirely in Li Wei's hands.
He was willing to admit defeat because he was intimidated by Li Wei's formidable fighting strength, and also because he wanted to consider his own future.
After all, everyone knows that he went to the Earth Star in the Super Star Region with the Destroyer of Kai Star this time, and the Destroyer died while he survived, which is already a great sin.
To put it more bluntly, this crime is enough for some enemies to use it as an excuse to execute him.
That's why he had the brilliant idea to beg Li Wei to become the Destroyer of Kai Star, so that he could at least make up for his failure to protect it.
Now, the success or failure of this matter depends on how he performs at this moment. So, Red Armor walked straight over and knelt down. "Father, your Little Red begs for forgiveness!"
The second prince, standing to the side, had a gloomy look in his eyes; he had already guessed what his younger brother was going to do.
As expected, Red Armor recounted his journey to Earth Star, but regarding the Destroyer's demise, he only stated that the Destroyer had fallen unexpectedly during a battle, without mentioning it to Li Wei.
Yao Ming clearly didn't want others to know that Lord Destroyer was killed by Li Wei. If those old fogies found out, they might immediately turn against Li Wei, and then he would be finished.
Just as he had initially imagined, the news caused a huge uproar in the hall.
King Barak of Kai Star was so badly injured that he almost fell over.
Upon seeing this, the second prince quickly stepped forward to support him, then shouted, "Guards, seize this man who has committed a serious crime!"
Soon, a group of fierce Kai Star people rushed in from outside and surrounded the Red Armor. The importance of the Destroyer to a star system is self-evident. Even princes cannot be spared when the Destroyer is involved.
At this moment, Red Armor knew that he had to speak immediately, or the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Wait a minute, Father! Although Lord Destroyer has fallen, I have found another Destroyer, and this lord has agreed to bring my Kai Star under his command!"
Hiss! The words had barely left his mouth when everyone in the hall gasped again.
Destroyer are not so easy to encounter; after all, there is only one Destroyer in every vast star field.
The second prince was also taken aback. This seventh prince's lie was too outrageous. Did he really think that Destroyer were like cabbages in the market, something you could find anywhere?
"Oh, so where is this Destroyer you mentioned?" The Second Prince's lips curled into a sinister smile. If the other party couldn't answer, it would be a crime of deception, which would be an even more serious offense.
Red Armor glanced at Li Wei, who stood calmly to the side, then hardened his heart and said, "It is this sir!"
"What?"
Not only the Second Prince, but everyone in the hall was shocked.
Weren't those two lowly Earth Star? When did they become Destroyer?
The most surprised was the female Kai Star. She stared at Li Wei in disbelief, her heart filled with mixed feelings. Thinking that she had just teased him, she couldn't help but feel uneasy.
The long silence was broken by a burst of laughter. "Hahaha, Seventh Brother, have you gone mad? You found these two lowly Earthlings to impersonate Destroyer! I think you really don't respect your father!"
As he finished speaking, the Second Prince looked at Li Wei and the other man, a murderous glint in his eyes.
Whether it's true or not, these two Earthlings cannot be allowed to live.
Thinking of this, the Second Prince flicked his hand, and a powerful green light struck Li Wei and his companion. This move was extremely sudden, and by the time the people in the hall reacted, the green light had already enveloped Li Wei and his companion.
"It's the Second Prince's Corrosive Swarm! Those two lowly Earthlings doomed now. You must know that the Corrosive Swarm is an advanced skill of our Kai Star; even the 'Ironclad Beast' (a type of ferocious beast with a hard exoskeleton) can't withstand it."
"However, if that Earthlings really is the Destroyer, wouldn't that anger him...?"
"Pah! Don't you even think about it? That's impossible. I think the Seventh Prince found the imposter posing as Destroyer. Otherwise, why would His Majesty remain indifferent? I think he's using the Second Prince to test the waters. If the other party dies just like that, then without a doubt, he's a fraud. If not..."
"Why do you always only say half of what you mean? So what if you're not dead?"
"Heh heh, if that's really the case, then the unlucky one will be the Second Prince. Openly attacking Destroyer is a capital offense!"
Several Kai Star people hid in a corner of the hall, watching everything that was happening before their eyes, and discussing it in hushed tones.
In fact, they guessed correctly. Many people in the hall were watching the outcome. If the two Earthlings were unharmed by the Corrosive Swarm, then it wouldn't matter. But if they died, then they were lying.
The green mist lasted for more than ten seconds. The Second Prince stared intently at it, as if trying to see through the green mist to the scenery. He believed that even a powerful expert with top-tier combat strength might not be able to withstand his attack.
The floor and seats that the green mist touched instantly rotted into dust; this was the power of the Corrosive Swarm —it could devour all matter.
However, the second prince was unaware that there were many things in the world that the Corrosive Swarm could not devour.
For example, lightning!
Suddenly, a burst of lightning erupted from the still-lingering green mist. At first, it was just one bolt, but soon, more and more lightning bolts appeared, and the roar of the thunder grew louder and louder.
The Kai Star people in the hall were all shocked and took a few steps back, fearing that the lightning might suddenly burst out and hurt them.
In contrast to the beaming smile on the Seventh Prince Red Armor's face, the Second Prince's face was terribly gloomy, and his fingers were trembling slightly.
"Damn it, Fatty still acted impulsively!"
For the first time, the second prince felt fear. There were quite a few people in the Dancai Hall who could have stopped his attack, but why didn't anyone intervene?
Looking back now, these people were just standing by and watching. After all, getting involved with the Destroyer could easily lead to their deaths if they weren't careful.
The Second Prince glanced at the smile on the Seventh Prince's Red Armor face, and his head buzzed. He knew he was in trouble.
The seventh brother's Red Flame was one of the few high-level abilities on Kai Star, but he had no intention of using it. In other words, he already knew that the Earthlings could withstand the Corrosive Swarm.
And what about Father Emperor? He's not such a fragile person, so why is he suddenly silent and pretending to be confused?
