Babata's Threat, Luo Feng's Indifference

Hearing this, Lin Mo seemed somewhat amused and said casually:

"It doesn't matter. You can follow and take a look first."

"We've got nothing better to do anyway. Just think of it as playing along with this little intelligent life-form."

With Lin Mo's agreement and assurance that he had his back,

Luo Feng finally set off, following Babata farther into the spaceship.

Before long, the two passed through a hidden passage

and arrived at a separate hall of utmost solemnity.

After Babata performed a complicated series of operations,

the metal floor in the center of the hall slowly split apart to either side.

Immediately afterward, a crystal coffin emitting a cold, eerie light slowly rose from underground.

Luo Feng looked closely and saw a corpse lying quietly inside the transparent crystal coffin!

The corpse was about three meters tall.

Aside from his larger stature,

his appearance and facial features were strikingly similar to those of an Earthling.

His eyes were peacefully closed, as though he were merely asleep.

The moment Babata saw the corpse, her previously sagacious air vanished as she broke down.

Babata threw herself against the crystal coffin, virtual tears streaming from her eyes.

Tears covered her face as she wept her heart out.

After quite some time, Babata seemed to have finally vented the emotions she had pent up for fifty thousand years.

She wiped away her tears and slowly turned around.

Her blood-red eyes fixed intently on Luo Feng, her expression more solemn than ever before.

"Luo Feng."

"Tell me, are you willing to take my master as your teacher?"

"Will you accept his legacy and become the future master of Yun Mo Planet?"

"Of course, Yun Mo Planet has already been destroyed by our enemies."

"The power that once shook the universe has also been completely wiped out."

"Take him as my teacher?"

Luo Feng froze on the spot, his eyes full of astonishment.

She wanted him to take a dead man lying in a coffin as his teacher?

Besides, he already had a half-alive person living in his head.

The supreme powerhouse Lin Mo, who could supposedly kill the Immortal Level powerhouse outside with a single glance!

Why wouldn't he cling to a real thigh like that, and instead take a dead man as his teacher?

At that moment, seeing Luo Feng standing there in hesitation,

and even showing a hint of resistance in his eyes, Babata grew anxious at once.

She had waited and suffered for fifty thousand years in this sunless place underground.

She had finally found Luo Feng, a seedling who barely met the requirements. How could she possibly let him go so easily?

Babata seemed somewhat anxious and spoke rapidly, her voice filled with fervent admiration.

"Luo Feng! You have no idea how great an opportunity lies before you!"

"My master, Hu Yanbo, was an eternal existence in the universe! He was a great Immortal God!"

"From his birth to his final death in battle, he roamed unhindered through the vast universe for more than six thousand eras."

"He commanded countless star systems and was a peerless powerhouse who truly stood at the pinnacle of the universe!"

As though afraid that Luo Feng, an ignorant country bumpkin, couldn't grasp that span of time,

Babata deliberately emphasized her words and added loudly:

"I'm telling you! One era in the universe is equivalent to 10,081 years in Earth time!"

At that moment, looking at Babata's fervent expression, as if she wished she could carve the word "great" onto her face,

Luo Feng remained unmoved.

He didn't even raise an eyebrow.

Seeing Luo Feng's reaction, Babata stamped her feet in frustration.

She simply assumed that an indigenous planet like Earth had too narrow a view,

and that Luo Feng had no idea what it meant to be Immortal.

So Babata began explaining things to Luo Feng in a frenzy, spittle flying.

The more vividly Babata described how powerful her master was,

the more Luo Feng worshipped Lin Mo.

Just like that, several hours slipped quietly by.

Babata was still gesturing animatedly in midair as she recounted the universe's wonders and the cultivation system of warriors.

However, the vast majority of what she described

had already been explained to Luo Feng by Lin Mo from a more incisive and profound perspective.

By now, Luo Feng was getting sleepy. Utterly bored, he let out a huge yawn.

He even reached up and rubbed his slightly sore eyes.

Seeing how Luo Feng remained impervious to everything she said and even seemed a little bored,

Babata's childlike face flushed bright red, and anger rushed straight to her head.

"Luo Feng! Make your decision. Will you take my master as your teacher or not?"

Babata floated in midair, looking down at Luo Feng as her voice turned cold.

"Only if you take him as your teacher can you receive the many extremely precious gifts Master prepared for his personal disciple."

"That's enough wealth to drive the entire Milky Way Galaxy mad!"

"Of course, you can choose not to take him as your teacher."

Babata smiled faintly, revealing two sharp fangs at the corners of her mouth as a trace of killing intent flashed through her eyes.

"If you refuse, I'll have no choice but to kill you to keep Master's legacy a secret!"

"Go on, choose. The choice is yours."

The atmosphere in the hall instantly dropped to freezing point.

Yet, faced with this naked death threat,

Luo Feng showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, he frowned and said with some displeasure:

"Are you threatening me?"

Luo Feng curled his lip and retorted bluntly:

"You little intelligent life-form, aren't you being too rude? You're asking me for a favor, and you're trying to force it on me?"

Seeing how unconcerned Luo Feng was, and how he even dared to fire back at her,

Babata was utterly stunned.

Her blood-red eyes were filled with disbelief.

Why isn't the threat working at all?

Isn't this kid afraid of death?

Or are Earthlings' brains wired differently from those of people in the universe, leaving them without a sense of fear?

Reasoning hadn't worked, and threats hadn't scared him. Babata was completely out of ideas.

Seeing that Luo Feng really seemed ready to turn around and leave,

Babata's psychological defenses crumbled in an instant.

She could only resort to her last and most shameless tactic.

Babata's virtual projection instantly turned into an afterimage.

She threw herself at Luo Feng's feet and clung tightly to his thigh.

"Luo Feng! I'm begging you, please take my master as your teacher!"

"I really can't afford to wait any longer! It's been fifty thousand years, and I finally found someone like you whose Brain Domain Width meets the requirement."

"If I miss my chance with you and have to wait for another suitable successor,"

"I don't even know how many more tens of thousands of years I'll have to endure in this sunless place underground!"

At that moment, looking at Babata, who had been brimming with killing intent one second

and was now clinging to his thigh and throwing a tantrum on the floor the next,

Luo Feng's face was covered in black lines as he sighed helplessly.

Just then, Lin Mo's faint laughter rang out in his sea of consciousness.

"All right, Luo Feng, you can take him as your teacher."

Lin Mo said casually:

"In the vast universe, it's perfectly normal for a powerhouse to have multiple teachers."

"Besides, with this little intelligent life-form at your side,"

"I can save myself a lot of trouble and enjoy some peace and quiet."

"All right."

Since even Teacher Lin Mo had agreed, Luo Feng naturally had no objection.

Only a bastard would pass up a free advantage, let alone a whole pile of inheritance.
