Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 517 - 512: Contest for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus
Today's Outer Battlefield is really bustling.
Behind the crowd, a bizarre yin-and-yang voice sounded.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
It's the Western Blood Clan, the Fusang Yin-Yang Master, and the Snow Wolf Country Shaman, all old acquaintances indeed.
"Look who it is!" the Fusang Yin-Yang Master said mockingly.
"Northern Border King, we meet again!" the pale-faced Blood Clan member smiled at Ye Feng.
"My Lord, why have they come?"
Xiao Chuanqi asked Ye Feng in a low voice by his side.
"With the Secret Treasure making such a commotion, they've been around the Outer Battlefield for days. I'd find it strange if they didn't show up here!"
Ye Feng had anticipated running into these people—the emergence of the Secret Treasure had virtually attracted the forces from the entire Outer Battlefield to converge here.
Now, it's still unclear how many other forces are en route here. Currently, everyone's goal is the same: to fight for the Secret Treasure.
"Hahaha, it turns out to be the Hun Yuan Green Lotus, no wonder it's caused such a huge disturbance!"
The Fusang Yin-Yang Master recognized the Hun Yuan Green Lotus, and bursting into laughter, he seemed to eye it as already in his possession.
At this time, Xu Shen's team was somewhat dazed. Why were so many factions arriving, all with the same goal?
The situation just got troublesome. Originally facing Ye Feng alone, he was set on obtaining the Hun Yuan Green Lotus. But now, other powers had intervened, making it difficult to compete for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus amongst the multitude of factions.
"Yes!" The Blood Clan members looked fiercely at the immature Hun Yuan Green Lotus, exclaiming, "Now the Hun Yuan Green Lotus is not yet mature, but in no more than four hours it will be ready, and by then surely the Green Lotus will be in our pocket!"
The Blood Clan was ambitious and determined to seize the Hun Yuan Green Lotus.
Far away, Xu Shen, upon hearing these words, became displeased. After all, he was also a king of the Outer Battlefield. These people, neither human nor ghostly, were simply disregarding him, which irritated him. Just as he was about to speak, Li Benzhong by his side hastily dissuaded him.
"Big Brother Xu, be not rash. The power of the arrived individuals is formidable; our group might not be a match. We should act according to the situation. Once the Hun Yuan Green Lotus matures, they will inevitably start to fight!"
It has to be said, Li Benzhong was indeed clever. He had heard of the reputations of the Fusang Yin-Yang Master and the Blood Clan Snow Wolf Country Shaman.
Once these three factions unite, the Outer Battlefield today would indeed tremble.
Moreover, all three factions had some past grievances with Ye Feng, and Ye Feng was also after the Hun Yuan Green Lotus. Their goals were the same.
"Ye Feng himself is also powerful. If they start fighting, they are bound to both suffer, and then it would be our chance to intervene. By then, the Hun Yuan Green Lotus will be in our pocket!"
After listening to this, Xu Shen took note of the point. He did not dare to easily provoke the three factions. Li Benzhong was right; if they start fighting, they would most likely end up with mutual losses. If they intervened prematurely, it might also give other factions an opportunity to take advantage.
This was rather like sitting idle and reaping the fisherman's profit. He, of course, knew the value of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus and was intent on securing it.
"Hahahaha!" Xu Shen chuckled secretly: "You're right. Those people obviously have hostility towards that youngster. It seems like the Hun Yuan Green Lotus will take a bit more than one hour to mature. We shall wait and reap the benefits!"
Xu Shen then ordered his men to retreat a few dozen meters, which, in the eyes of others, seemed like giving up on this opportunity to compete for the Secret Treasure.
But Ye Feng and his party were not fools; they understood Xu Shen's intentions.
Mercenaries in the Outer Battlefield would not miss out on a profit. They certainly wouldn't let the chance to compete for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus slip by.
"Today, the Hun Yuan Green Lotus will belong to us!"
The Fusang Yin-Yang Master issued a forceful declaration.
"Oh? Are you saying that the lot of you are ignoring my Blood Clan?"
Following the Fusang Yin-Yang Master's fierce words, the Blood Clan was the first to refuse to agree.
The Hun Yuan Green Lotus was also something they were resolved to obtain.
"Hmm? Why not test our strength first?"
The Fusang Yin-Yang Master's side obviously wouldn't concede, knowing very well the value of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus—a treasure that may not appear even once in a thousand or ten thousand years. How could they let it slip away?
"Come then, I've long heard that you Fusang Yin-Yang Masters are adept at Yin-Yang techniques. My Blood Clan, on the other hand, would like to witness it firsthand!"
Even before the Hun Yuan Green Lotus had matured, the Blood Clan and the Fusang Yin-Yang Masters, who had been side by side in the Outer Battlefield, began to argue.
Out of interest, their previous encounter and alliance in the Outer Battlefield were mutually beneficial.
As they were about to come to blows, the Fusang Yin-Yang Master's side chose to yield.
"Once I seize the Hun Yuan Green Lotus, then I will let you experience our capabilities!"
The Fusang Yin-Yang Master certainly wasn't foolish. If a fight broke out with the Blood Clan, whose strength was similar, they would both be severely weakened. For now, the Hun Yuan Green Lotus hadn't yet matured.
It was not too late to fight for it once it matured. If they fought now, it would only allow others to take advantage of them.
"Hmph!" The Blood Clan side was utterly dissatisfied but was aware of the current situation: "We will wait and see if you Fusang Yin-Yang Masters really have the ability to compete with my Blood Clan for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus!"
"What a disappointment. Why don't you fight? Come on, why not fight?!" Xiao Chuanqi was quite disappointed.
If they had fought, competing for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus would have been much easier.
Unfortunately, they didn't fight; instead, they just engaged in a war of words.
At this moment, Ye Feng clearly saw the situation. If the Blood Clan and the Fusang Yin-Yang Masters joined forces, his chances of fighting for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus would be slim.
The power of the Fusang Yin-Yang Master was not to be underestimated, nor was that of the Blood Clan.
Now, understanding their relationship, there was still hope for obtaining the Hun Yuan Green Lotus.
"My Lord, it seems that Xu Shen appears to have withdrawn from this chance to compete for the Secret Treasure," Shadow whispered beside Ye Feng.
"Hmph!" Ye Feng coldly laughed in response: "You think too simply of the mercenaries here. I've heard that the mercenaries on this side of the Outer Battlefield are madmen who would give their lives for profit. Do you think Xu Shen would give up the opportunity to fight for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus?"
Xu Shen's ulterior motives are known to all.
"Xu Shen simply wants to reap the gains without effort. Since that's the case, I will not let him have his way!"
Shadow thought carefully and understood Xu Shen's actions.
"Lord, what shall we do next?"
Many factions had come to vie for the Treasure, and their strength was not to be underestimated. To compete with these forces for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus was difficult—it might even come with the risk of losing one's life.
"Wait," Ye Feng said calmly.
Wait for what? Of course, it was to wait for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus to mature. Once it did, the fangs and claws of the various forces would be revealed. Then, seizing the opportunity would be key.
Then, none of the forces made a move—they were all resting on the spot, waiting for the Hun Yuan Green Lotus to mature.
It was already night, but the sky of the Outer Battlefield was filled with stars, and the bright moon hung high.
The radiant purple light emanating from the suspended Hun Yuan Green Lotus was as dazzling as the stars.
At this moment, everyone stood up, their eyes all looking in the same direction, all closely watching every move of the Hun Yuan Green Lotus.
After waiting for one and a half hours, the Hun Yuan Green Lotus finally matured.
"Buzz!"
The Hun Yuan Green Lotus, hanging in the air, was originally closed, but now it had unfolded completely, enveloped in a layer of purple light.
The Hun Yuan Green Lotus was fully mature, and the various forces began to stir restlessly.
Everyone's gaze was feverishly fixed on the Hun Yuan Green Lotus.
"Hahaha, the Hun Yuan Green Lotus has matured, Fusang shall be the first to claim it!"
The Fusang Yin-Yang Master made the first move to grab the Hun Yuan Green Lotus.
The Blood Clan was always watching the Fusang Yin-Yang Master's actions, and the moment they moved, the Blood Clan followed suit.
"Hmph, the first to take it? You're not taking the Blood Clan seriously!"
Both sides' forces charged towards the Hun Yuan Green Lotus.
"Lord!"
Xiao Chuanqi saw someone making a move and looked eagerly at Ye Feng.
"No rush, we'll take action as we see fit!"
Ye Feng watched the Blood Clan and the Fusang Yin-Yang Master and replied.
The Blood Clan and the Fusang Yin-Yang Master had already started fighting, neither side giving in, using various lethal moves aimed at vital points.
After several exchanges, neither side could claim victory—it ended in a stalemate.
"Damn it!" The three Fusang Yin-Yang Masters who couldn't repel the Blood Clan cursed.
"You two don't worry about me. Keep them busy while you fetch the Hun Yuan Green Lotus for me!"
The Fusang Yin-Yang Master in the middle ordered the two beside him.
"Lord Beya!"
"Go now!"
Seeing the two Fusang Yin-Yang Masters hesitating, the one called Lord Beya roared.
The two Fusang Yin-Yang Masters obeyed the command and rushed towards the Hun Yuan Green Lotus.
"Hmph!" Seeing this, the Blood Clan seized the chance to intercept them. "Naive, thinking you can snatch the Hun Yuan Green Lotus right under my watch. Dream on!"
The Blood Clan's aura was overwhelming, giving the Fusang Yin-Yang Masters no opportunity.
Obviously, the Fusang Yin-Yang Masters were not to be trifled with. The three looked at each other and simultaneously performed Seal Formations. Suddenly, a fearsome aura erupted from their bodies.
Then a talisman, resembling a triplet of stars, slowly appeared, and they shouted.
The talisman went straight for the Blood Clan.
"Not good, retreat!"
Realizing the danger, the Blood Clan immediately ordered their subordinates to retreat.
Some of the Blood Clan members who hadn't fled in time were hit directly and soon fell, turning into a wisp of green smoke that vanished into the air.
The powerful leaders managed to block the attack.
"Xuanyuan Nation brat, we still haven't settled our score from before. Don't worry, you're next!"
At this moment, the central Fusang Yin-Yang Master stared at Ye Feng and shouted.
Ye Feng replied with a cold laugh: "I was planning to settle accounts with you later, too!"
Ye Feng had previously clashed with them, killing one of their Shikigamis, and it was only the strength of his Flesh Body Realm that had narrowly saved his life; otherwise, he wouldn't have been standing here now.
Ye Feng always remembered that debt.
The Blood Clan on this side hadn't expected the Fusang Yin-Yang Masters to be so powerful. Continuing like this didn't bode well for them. Not only may they fail to get the Hun Yuan Green Lotus, but they could also potentially fall in this Outer Battlefield.
The Blood Clan took the initiative to cease fighting and smiled, "We have already witnessed the strength of the three of you, and I still have an unsettled score with that little Xuanyuan Nation guy. Let's stop here for now and deal with that kid first!"
"Lord!"
Xiao Chuanqi stepped forward upon hearing this, but Ye Feng raised his hand, signaling not to be rash.
"Alright, the three of us also have this in mind!" replied the Fusang Yin-Yang Masters, looking at Ye Feng with a terrifying gaze, "Kid, earlier you took our Treasure, how shall we settle this account?"
The aura emanating from the three Fusang Yin-Yang Masters was chilling.
