"The new Legion can now be officially put on the agenda, and I should also pay a proper visit to those Lantern Entity..." Shan.

Chapter 370

"The Red Legion..."

Su Chen stood above the Red Lantern Corps, looking at the blood-red lake, and nodded slightly.

"It's like fighting with your life on the line."

Upon discovering Su Chen's arrival, the surviving members of the Red Lantern Corps gradually gathered together, but they no longer seemed to possess the usual volatile temperament of their Legion.

On the contrary, a tension never before felt spread through the hearts of every Legion.

Although they knew that Su Chen would definitely come to their gathering place, the waiting process was still agonizing, and when Su Chen arrived, they couldn't help but feel uneasy.

It seems that Su Chen has no intention of becoming the leader of their Legion, or even any of the remaining Legion.

They knew nothing about what Su Chen wanted to do, and it was precisely because of this ignorance that they felt panic.

"Is this the source of your energy?"

Looking at the pool of blood-red water, Su Chen turned around and asked the Red Lantern Corps member closest to him.

The member nodded slightly.

"Since you can sense my arrival, why don't you show yourself?"

After receiving an affirmative answer, Su Chen looked at the lake and spoke calmly.

The blood-red pool water not only appeared to be bright red in color, but also seemed to have a texture as viscous as blood.

After being transformed by Red Lantern energy, the bodies of Red Lantern Corps members no longer contain blood; instead, they are filled entirely with this red energy.

This means that once they join this Legion and put on the Red Lantern Ring, they can never take it off. If they do, they will immediately die from blood loss.

All that flows through their veins is this power of anger.

Also because of their overwhelming power, they sometimes lose their minds, and only after being immersed in such lake water can they temporarily retain their sanity.

As Su Chen spoke, ripples suddenly appeared in the once thick and calm lake.

Then, two extremely sharp horns slowly rose up from within.

A powerful, imposing bull slowly rose from the lake.

Unlike the somewhat calm demeanor of the Ion Shark, this bull also had the characteristic anger of the Red Lantern Corps in its eyes.

"You're too late, and before you even arrived, you'd already shamelessly borrowed my energy."

The bull snorted in a very human-like manner, then looked at Su Chen with an unfriendly expression and said...

"Things happened suddenly, and I wanted to find you as soon as possible, gain control of the Legion, and accomplish everything I wanted to do, as well as everything you hoped to accomplish. However, plans can never keep up with changes in action, so I prioritized using your energy."

Su Chen extended his right hand and spoke calmly.

"But whether I'll actually use this sooner or later seems irrelevant now."

Despite the enraged bull, Su Chen remained calm.

Faced with Su Chen's calm tone, the bull vigorously pawed at the lake water beneath its feet, and the red energy on its body seemed to intensify.

"I know you're the embodiment of anger, and I suddenly realize that you're probably filled with anger and very unhappy right now, aren't you?"

Seeing the bull seemingly about to attack, Su Chen twisted his neck.

"But I think you should also understand that since I can control the power of anger, anger also exists within me. If you want to experience my anger, you are welcome to attack me."

Su Chen's expression remained calm, but Su Chen eyes were firmly fixed on the bull's eyes.

As for the usually arrogant and domineering members of the Red Lantern Corps, they all kept their mouths shut at this moment.

Those who can unleash the power of anger naturally understand what kind of person possesses the most terrifying power to unleash.

It's not the anger of those who are quick to bar their teeth and brandish their claws that is most terrifying.

Rather, the most dangerous people are those who appear calm and restrained throughout. Anger is never a slow and steady stream of energy; it only needs a single, explosive outburst.

The anger that erupts from those who remain calm is often beyond the capacity of ordinary people to bear or even imagine.

Just like a volcano that could erupt at any moment under a bottleneck, they clearly felt this feeling from Su Chen at this moment.

"Hopefully, Ion Shark has made the right choice this time..."

After staring intently into Su Chen's eyes for a moment, the bull finally lowered its head and spoke.

Then the bull's body submerged back into the lake, continuing to guard the core of this raging energy.

Bull didn't say anything to the Red Lantern Corps members around him, nor did he need to.

"You seem to be filled with panic about your future. You shouldn't be members of the Red Lantern Corps. Judging from your current state, you'd be more suited to the Yellow Lantern Legion."

Su Chen turned to look at the still silent Legion members, smiled faintly, and spoke.

"I know what you're worried about. You're just selfishly concerned about your own future. But I can explain this to you, and I can give you the most straightforward explanation."

Su Chen walked up to the Legion members, gently placing his hands behind his back. His previous calm smile vanished, replaced by a serious expression.

"You will continue to exist, but not as Legion like this. You will combine with holders of other Emotional Spectrum to form a new Legion, a Legion that belongs to me."

Su Chen put his hands behind his back and continued speaking.

Upon hearing this, the members of the Red Lantern Corps seemed to stir slightly.

"You shouldn't exist in isolation. The very existence of singular emotions is a mistake, and now I'm going to correct that mistake."

Seeing the commotion among the Red Lantern Corps members, Su Chen continued speaking.

"You will become a new Legion, my Fourth Legion!"

Chapter 371

"As one of the most fundamental forms of energy in this universe, it should be omnipresent; how could it possibly exist only in this tiny place!"

Seeing the somewhat bewildered members of the Red Lantern Corps, Su Chen solemnly offered his own interpretation.

"Since you possess anger, then you should spread the power of that anger to every corner of this universe, and even beyond this universe..."

Su Chen looked around.

Upon hearing what Su Chen said, some members of the Red Lantern Corps exchanged glances, while others whispered among themselves.

Atrocitus, the former leader of the Red Lantern Corps, was the very guy Su Chen tore apart; he once shared the exact same thoughts.

However, their ideas were subject to far too many restrictions, both from other Legion and from the watchful eyes of the Guardians.

Even if the guy who could be easily torn apart by Su Chen had a lot of anger in his heart, he couldn't possibly have such ambitions.

"Perhaps this man really does have that possibility..."

Although the members of the Red Lantern Corps no longer had hot blood in their bodies, they now seemed to feel the red energy burning in their chests.

"Of course, it's impossible for you to exist in isolation. The combined power of all your emotions is what makes you the most powerful force. You will merge with the other Legion to form the original, most primal Legion, and together you will share this world with me."

Su Chen raised his head high.

Meanwhile, the blood-red lake water behind Su Chen began to boil once again!

This time, the Blood Ox Lantern Entity did not appear, but another small creature slowly emerged from the boiling lake water and floated towards Su Chen.

"Only now do you dare to give me this ring?"

Su Chen picked up the small, bright red ring and smiled.

Its unique pattern and weight made it different from the leader's ring that Su Chen once owned.

The Supreme Ring of Rage!

At the same time, the ancient voice of the Blood Ox suddenly rang out again beside Su Chen.

This wasn't just echoing around in the form of sound waves; it was more like a surge of angry power directly rising within Mind Stone. Not only all the members of the Red Lantern Corps around Su Chen heard this voice as well.

"Intelligent life has been locked on, Su Chen of Earth, your heart is burning with rage, the Red Lantern Corps belongs to you!"

As this ancient welcoming address resounded once more, this time it was no longer a single member joining the Red Lantern Corps, but rather the Red Lantern Corps becoming entirely under one person's control!

As this ancient sound rang out, the gaze of the Lantern Legion towards Su Chen became even more fervent.

This was a ritual that seemed to have no effect, but it was precisely because of this ritual that the Red Lantern Corps truly came to regard Su Chen as one of their own.

"Are you ready to spread your anger to every corner of the universe?"

Seeing that the Red Lantern Corps members below had clearly changed their gaze and no longer held any hostility, Su Chen raised his hand and spoke loudly.

"Anger! Anger!!"

When this group of warriors, with their blood-red Emotional Spectrum of anger, also refused, they expressed their feelings in their own unique way!

When Su Chen arrived at this gathering place, he appeared like a shooting star.

As Su Chen departed, he too transformed into a shooting star, but behind this shooting star followed thousands of bright red shooting stars, as if they were burning fiercely!

They are heading in a different direction than Su Chen. They will now gather on a planet near Earth, waiting to join other Legion and form Su Chen's Fourth Legion!

The Red Lantern Corps, Legion most powerful and formidable of the seven Legion, has been officially disbanded and replaced by the first part of the Fourth Legion!

Su Chen, however, continued his journey alone to the next destination.

A place that gleams with a greedy orange light.

The Orange Lantern Legion is small in number, almost comparable to the smallest Indigo Lantern Legion.

However, their scarcity can, in a sense, be categorized as something they brought upon themselves...

Representing the Emotional Spectrum of greed, they don't want to share what they have with anyone else, nor do they want to expand their power; they want to possess it all.

Maintaining their current small number of members, instead of having just one person, is the biggest concession they can make.

However, the number of people at the Orange Lantern Legion's rally site was not small.

Because this power of greed gathers here, almost any well-known cosmic criminal you can see is on this planet; it's practically a paradise for cosmic criminals.

After all, the strongest force here belongs to their own protective Legion, but it represents a greedy Legion that can almost be called a negative force!

However, this greedy Legion was not wandering around the planet as usual. Like the Red Lantern Corps before them, they were all anxiously waiting for someone to arrive in their own palace.

As Su Chen arrived, a kind of fervent gaze, different from the previous anger, still lingered around Su Chen.

The greedy Legion could not defeat Su Chen, but they still coveted his power.

Su Chen simply couldn't be bothered to pay attention to it; after all, it was just their nature...

As for Su Chen, he also chose to ignore the members of this Legion and strode up to the huge energy source that was shimmering with colored light.

"The Orange Lantern Legion will disband and join my Fourth Legion, which will eventually possess the entire universe."

Before the Lantern Entity could even respond, Su Chen spoke directly.

The orange-lit Lantern Entity was also decisive and efficient, or perhaps a little impatient.

A huge, fat python suddenly emerged from the energy source.

Immediately afterwards, a Supreme Ring, identical except for its color, was presented and hung on the python's tail.

"Intelligent life has been locked. Su Chen of Earth, your desires are insatiable. The Orange Lantern Legion belongs to you!"

Behind Su Chen, the few remaining members of the Orange Lantern Legion couldn't help but cheer.

Chapter 372

Because their power inherently belongs to desire, this Legion's desires are expressed more directly and purely than those of any individual.

They would be afraid because Su Chen killed their leader.

And just as they would cheer wildly because Su Chen could continue to lead them to greater profits.

There was no attempt to conceal anything; everything was laid bare.
