Chapter 484: Settling the Score
Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy

The foot of the altar was bloodstained with rocks, scales, and feathers lying in disarray. Smoke and dust rose as a testament to the intense and chaotic battle that had just occurred.

Zhu Wuque was about to go insane. One of his legs had been broken off just below the crotch, and the opening was gurgling and gushing scarlet, glowing blood.

The most hateful thing was what he saw—to his horror, Chu Feng had placed the big yin sparrow leg on the roasting pit and was barbequing madly over there.

This was simply unbearable! He saw that this savage bastard wanted to eat his leg. How was he supposed to endure this!?

The heavenly knights of the past would hunt for food on this planet and, as the descendant of the Nine Yin Sparrow, he carried great expectations. How could he fall to this piece of farmland?

Blood was squirting out from all over Zhu Wuque’s body like he was about to burst. This was the greatest disgrace of his lifetime.

Chu Feng was roasting the birds leg and had burnt off a large piece of the red feathers. He furrowed his brows at the primitiveness. Roasting it with feathers on was no different from devouring raw meat and poultry.

He got up and carried the yin sparrow leg as he charged toward a pool not too far away. He stumbled halfway there and almost fell on his face as the side effects appeared in a burst.

He quickly skinned and cleaned it with swift and agile movements. Then he picked up the yin sparrow leg with both hands, turned around, and ran.

“Huh?”

They didn’t understand. He just ran away!?

“Quickly, attack him! He’s spent; his body can’t take anymore!” Zhu Wuque called out and jumped up suddenly. He charged over to chase Chu Feng down despite having only one leg.

Everyone came to and noticed that Chu Feng’s emaciated body almost as thin as a skeleton. He had lost much of the essence of his flesh and blood and looked like dried up oil lamp.

The group of people had originally wanted to flee, but now they stopped in their tracks, and some even went back for the kill!

Chu Feng ignored them and carried the dozen meter long bird leg towards the limestone steps of the altar. He didn’t turn his head back and just kept running forward.

“Despicable!”

The people realized they’d missed their chance a while ago. Just now had truly been their opportunity!

Chu Feng climbed vigorously onto the altar with relative ease. This was because he had raised his evolutionary level, and he had also been using the Seal of Domain Suppression this whole time.

Once he reached the top, he just laid there, not wanting to move a muscle.

“The starcore turtle egg!”

Chu Feng had an extreme thirst. He wouldn’t have fallen so far if only he had the quasi-divine beast eggs. Right now, his internal dissipation of energy was too great. He was already skin and bones, and he was unbearably weak.

“Get your ass down here, Chu Feng!” shouted Zhu Wuque with flames spewing from his eyes. Even though he had almost been killed just then, now he was still standing at the front.

This was because the dozen meter-long leg on the altar was too conspicuous and was about to be barbequed right in front of his face. This practically… made him go insane.

“Grandpa doesn’t have time for you!” Chu Feng took a large breath and tried to sit up. After trying a few times, he laid down once more. His face was like lifeless gold paper.

Chu Feng knew from experience that his life source was on the verge of drying up. It was best if he didn’t move and recovered a bit before doing anything else.

He laid there and rubbed his hands together to emit an energy flame that could roast this thick bird leg. This was a life-saving medicine that contained a dense vitality.

Fire burst from Zhu Wuque’s eyes and the red flames outside his body was raging. Never before had he been so sullen!

“I will be extremely grateful to whoever can kill him!” Below the altar, Chen Rong was torn with grief as she shouted. She was also miserable; the area below her waist had been smashed into a bloody pulp, and her teeth and nose had long since been destroyed.

Chen Rong’s hair was disheveled and she called out mournfully, “I’m of the Penglai orthodox lineage and yet you have the impertinence to treat me like this!?”

Chu Feng ignored her. Looking at her hysterical manner, it was apparent that she had gone completely mad with rage.

The pangolin-race saint child Lie Shan had a gloomy and cold expression in his eyes. He’d lost his right arm after being smashed by a stone ball.

One must know that this race’s constitution was special. They could cut through rocky mountains and traverse primordial peaks with no problem, yet today he had been nearly crushed to death by a boulder!

Yuan Kun’s golden fur was covered in blood and his eyes were slightly empty. He had collapsed in a pool of blood and could no longer get up.

At this time, some people were retreating. They saw that Chu Feng had fled to the top of the altar and was roasting the yin sparrow leg. They were worried that he would replenish some of his vigor and act violently once more, so they wanted to run away.

Yuwen Feng, Zhan He, and Bai Ling wanted to leave this place first.

Chu Feng suddenly sat up atop the altar and used all of his strength to suddenly toss out the Four Dragon Locking Pillars. He wanted to seal off the secret realm!

He was so weak, and yet he still wanted to leave everyone behind.

Everyone’s expression changed, feeling that Chu Feng had gone completely wild. He was already like a dried-up oil lamp, yet he still dared to rudely and unreasonably sever the path. He was truly conceited.

Now even Zhu Wuque, who had been challenging him to a fight, also had a bad idea.

There was nothing to say of the remaining few people. They felt some remorse and realized that they shouldn’t have pursued him just now. Instead, they should have decisively left this secret area.

“Go, break through the siege first!”

A group of people fell back, wanting to cut open the domain formed by the Dragon Locking Pillars.

Even Chen Rong was no longer hysterical and made someone quickly carry her away. She was itching to escape this place immediately.

“You all came here to kill me today. We’ll settle this score in just a moment !”

Chu Feng said this from atop the altar.

The meat of the vicious bird’s leg was glowing and had a strong fragrance. Chu Feng did not waste even a bit as he started to wolf down his food like a glutton. In a flash, he had eaten half the leg.

One must know that this yin sparrow leg was more than a dozen meters long.

Chu Feng glowed from head to toe. The meat had been refined without waste—its vitality was absorbed, and the excess energy rushed out from his body.

This was also a kind of baptism. All of his pores still opened up even though he was all skin and bones. Scarlet clouds cleansed him and left his whole body bright and resplendent.

He transformed the entirety of the fearful bird’s thick leg into vital essence and swallowed it just like a whale. Afterwards, Chu Feng’s face became a bit rosier and his body swelled up slightly.

Chu Feng reckoned that if he ate more vital substances, he would likely be able to plump up his physical body. Green light shot from his eyes as he stared at the area beneath the altar.

All that was left at his side was a large bone. The sparkling and translucent meat had been cleanly gnawed off.

In the distance, Zhu Wuque, who was currently breaking through the domain, felt his whole body shudder with anger and his hair stood on end.

“Brother, you’ve come back from the dead. It would appear you just escaped a great catastrophe and preserved your life. I’ve already placed an order and booked Saintess Zi Luan in advance. Be sure not to cripple her!”

In the photon computer, a customer reminded repeatedly. He did not want a saintess with missing limbs.

“Brother Chu, I’ve placed my order as well! I want the high-ranking planet’s saintess Li Feng. You know, that cosmic supermodel saintess that you said has long legs!”

Chu Feng glanced at the photon computer and said, “Wait until I’ve eaten my fill!”

What!?

The group of people was baffled, then they all started stomping around in anger and anxiety.

What they heard was that he would first eat a large meal. But when the time came, how many of these saint sons and saintesses would be left?

This was just too cruel!

“Brother, you have to know how to use resources sparingly! Don’t eat anymore. Later I’ll send you a package with some high-level foods to keep you in good health. Don’t eat the saintess!”

The group’s dissuasions came in succession. They were shocked by his rather valiant style.

“If you want to eat, just eat Zhu Wuque! He’s already disabled anyway. Don’t eat any of the others, leave them! I want that saintess with the floating silver hair, Bai Ling. Brother, you absolutely cannot eat her!”

There was a great commotion on the Origin Beast Platform, and many were unable to stay in their seats.

They had never seen someone so outrageously savage.

In just a short period of time, the name “Demon Chu Feng” had spread like wildfire.

Chu Feng knit his brows as he unwillingly said, “Fine, I’ll decide based on the situation and see if I can leave behind one or two saintesses, then I’ll consider leaving behind one or two divine sons to pull my chariot.”

The group on the Origin Beast Platform were truly excited.

This aboriginal was too extravagant. He got first pick of the saintesses, and he was even going to leave behind two divine sons to pull a chariot for him. This way of doing things left them speechless, envious, and hateful.

This was because even if they auctioned the divine sons and saintesses, they did not dare make it public. How could they possibly be as unrestrained as Chu Feng?

They reckoned that even on those rich and famous ancient planets, those dao children and terrifying disciples didn’t dare to act so ostentatiously.

“I admire him a bit. It’s really difficult to get justice. On this kind of savage planet, nobody can control you. He can toss about however he wants, and even the saints can’t descend. It makes me green with envy! If I were five hundred years younger, I’d run off to that planet!”

“Divine sons pulling chariots, saintess retainers… Brother Chu, you really are an evil creature! But… how about we make a trade? Allow me to set foot on the star passage and cross over the boundary. I’ll hang out with you, and when the time comes you entertain me! How about it!?”

…

In the secret realm, Zi Luan, Yuwen Feng, Li Feng, Lie Shan and the others all had ashen complexions. They were being taken as commodities! As divine sons and saintesses, how could they endure this?

Bang!

This time, Chu Feng leapt down from the altar and landed straight on the ground like a javelin. Dirt and rocks splashed up, but his eyes penetrated through the dust like flickering lightning.

He pressed forward. It was obvious that he had recovered quite a bit. His body was no longer extremely dried out and had a bit of luster, and his flesh had plumped up slightly.

By the wayside on the ground was ahead. Its eyes were full of bitter resentment and close to shooting flames. This was the great Qi prince Qi Yu, who had been killed in the battle with Chu Feng not long before. His body had been crushed by the stone spheres and his body exploded, leaving behind only his head which still lingered on with its final breaths. He would not live for much longer.

Bang!

Chu Feng kicked him into midair. He turned into a bloody mist with a “pop” and died completely.

It was time to start settling accounts. He was starting the slaughter.

“Roar!”

Yuan Kun, who had already transformed into his true form, was lying in a pool of blood. The lower half of his body had already disappeared, and moving was not easy. What’s more, now he didn’t have anyone to care for him.

He was a diamond ape, but now he could only stare on with angry eyes, hoping to launch a dying retaliation.

Chu Feng said nothing as he stomped down from high in the sky and broke every bone in his body, paralyzing him.

“I’ll save this to sell!” Chu Feng announced his destiny.

Those people were attacking in the distance, desperate to break through the Dragon Locking Pillar’s seal and escape this area. It was too late, though because Chu Feng had arrived beside them.

“Together! Now we can only fight to the death!” shouted Yuwen Feng in a low voice.

“Descendent of the heavenly knights, right?” Chu Feng said coldly.

“You rebel species!” Yuwen Feng did not compromise, and his words were icy cold. They had once confronted each other before on Mount Lu.

“Your ancestor is the heavenly knight Yuwen Chengkong. I can’t deal with him now, so I’ll collect interest from you to comfort the women, children, the old and the feeble!”

Chu Feng was especially hateful towards the heavenly knights. On the Moon, it was as if he had experienced it himself. They didn’t even spare infants, piercing them with lances and sending them flying. As for ten to twelve-year-old youths, they were even more ruthlessly beheaded with butcher’s knives. The bloody violence was enough to make one’s blood boil.

“Die!”

Chu Feng rushed forward and struck with one fist, shaking heaven and earth.

“I’ll butcher you!” Yuwen Feng knew that it was no good, but he wouldn’t give in—the brutality and bloodthirsty nature in his bones came from his ancestors. He was incomparably cold as he pulled out some secret treasures, wanting to fight Chu Feng to the death.

Unfortunately, in order to cross the boundary early, he had severed off his dao, and now he was no match.

Chu Feng didn’t want to waste any time. Stone spheres as big as millstones surrounded his fists, rolling and pressing forward.

Aou…

Yuwen Feng let out a long howl. Golden sheets of paper appeared around him. This was the picture scroll he had painted. Unfortunately, there were only two wordless sheets of the heavenly book; his imitation was truly lacking

Bang bang bang…

The golden paper exploded right there. His picture scroll, which he had condensed using his vital blood energy and his spirit as paint, crumbled.

An array of coarse stone spheres rolled forward cruelly and wildly!

Pfft!

Chu Feng rushed over and ran his fist through Yuwen Feng’s body, opening up a penetrative wound. He turned stiff right there and was no longer able to move.

Next, Yuwen Feng exploded and turned into a bloody mist.

There was absolute silence.

“What a waste, brother! I wanted to buy a saint child in private, but you killed him like this!” Someone on the Origin Beast Platform was complaining.

“This is not for sale, he must die!” said Chu Feng.

“Now it’s your turn, descendent of the heavenly knights!” Chu Feng stared at Zhu Wuque, who was missing a leg.

Unexpectedly, the loudest and most imposing quasi-sage descendent from earlier was quite scared. He went so far as to bow his head in defeat and beg Chu Feng to spare his life.

This… Everyone was stunned.

In the outer-realm, the quasi-sage Nine Yin Sparrow was suddenly furious and felt disgraced.

“Sing ‘Vanquished’,” said Chu Feng. He had found a song from before the post-civilization era.

Zhu Wuque held back a blush. He wanted to fight with all his might, but he also didn’t want to die and was momentarily petrified.

“Think about it,” said Chu Feng. He then set his gaze on Saintess Zi Luan, Saint Child Lie Shan, Saintess Li Feng, and the others.
