A Chance for Fair Dialogue

Before the Five Elements Blood Fiend Formation was completed, Li Guanglong did not dare to rashly enter the residence and confront the God-King Zeus face-to-face.

Though he himself was a martial arts grandmaster, compared to Zeus --- who was an Ultimate Grandmaster --- he was still far inferior.

If a conflict were to break out, he estimated he wouldn't last three moves against Zeus.

Even with the Burning Heaven Blazing Talisman that the Old Supervisor had gifted him, he might not get the chance to use it.

So, to ensure safety, he had specially summoned his five masters to set up the Five Elements Blood Fiend Formation.

Inside this formation, the five masters were virtually invincible.

Should Zeus make any move, the five of them would immediately take action to stop him.

Wearing a grim expression, Li Guanglong followed the bloodstained stone path forward. He didn’t stop until he reached the main hall.

At this moment, seated in the place of honor in the hall were two blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigners --- a man and a woman.

The man on the left exuded a powerful aura, his face full of arrogance, and his smile carried a sinister charm --- clearly, this was the God-King Zeus.

As for the alluring and voluptuous woman on the right, she reclined lazily on her chair with a drowsy look, revealing no clear intentions.

But anyone who could sit alongside Zeus was certainly no ordinary figure --- very likely another God-King.

Among the Four Great God-Kings of the Pantheon Temple, only one was female --- Hera.

Realizing this, Li Guanglong couldn’t help but frown.

He had expected only Zeus. He hadn’t anticipated that Hera would be here too.

Facing two God-Kings head-on was clearly unwise, even with his five masters backing him. He dared not act recklessly.

Aside from the two God-Kings, the hall was also filled with other top experts from the Pantheon Temple, and a group of Li Guanglong’s household members --- kneeling on the floor.

Most of them were his relatives, including wives, concubines, and children --- all taken hostage.

“Your Highness, save us!”

“Your Highness! These villains are committing atrocities and killing innocents. Please bring us justice!”

“…!”

Upon seeing Li Guanglong, everyone in the hall began wailing and pleading for help.

They had always lived pampered lives, used to high positions and luxury. When had they ever suffered such humiliation?

Now, trampled like dogs beneath others’ feet, slaughtered at will --- it filled them with grief and rage.

Ignoring their cries for help, Li Guanglong stared intently at the seated Zeus and asked coldly,
“I have always had no conflict with the Pantheon Temple. Why did you invade my residence and kill people?!”

“You are Li Guanglong?” Zeus asked, lounging comfortably.

“That’s right,” Li Guanglong narrowed his eyes, “Now answer my question!”

“They were just ants. Killed them, so what? What can you do about it?” Zeus sneered.

He was always proud and arrogant, never taking the so-called nobles of the Dragonmarsh seriously.

To him, killing a few nobles was no different from squashing some ants.

“Zeus! I’m warning you --- don’t be too arrogant!” Li Guanglong said angrily.
“My people have you surrounded. If you don’t want a fight to the death, you'd better back down!”

“Oh? From your tone, sounds like you’re not backing down?” Zeus leaned forward slightly, sneering.
“Even if I kill everyone in your estate, what can you do? You don’t seriously think some stupid formation can trap me, do you? Don’t be naive.”

Of course, he had clearly seen the Five Elements Blood Fiend Formation outside --- but he simply didn’t care.

“If the formation can't hold you, then how about this?”

Suddenly, Li Guanglong pulled out a fiery red talisman --- the Burning Heaven Blazing Talisman.

“Hm?”

Seeing the talisman, Zeus frowned slightly, clearly surprised.

Though he didn’t know exactly what the talisman did, he could sense the danger from it.

If it hit him, even if he didn’t die, he’d definitely be severely injured.

At that moment, he finally took the situation seriously.

It seemed this Second Prince Li Guanglong wasn’t so simple after all --- to have something that could pose a threat to him.

“So?” Li Guanglong asked, sensing Zeus’s hesitation and feeling more confident.
“Still want to go down with me?”

“I must’ve underestimated you,” Zeus sat back slowly and said flatly,
“I respect strength. I’ll give you a chance for fair dialogue. Tell me where Logan Rhys is, and we’ll leave immediately --- no further trouble.”

“Logan Rhys?” Li Guanglong frowned. “How would I know where he is?”

“Still pretending? At this point? Or are you saying you don’t want to negotiate?” Zeus’s eyes grew colder.

“I’ve met Logan Rhys, but I don’t know where he is now. Also, I’m very curious --- who told you I knew where he is?” Li Guanglong countered.

“Hmph! Take a look for yourself!”

Zeus waved his hand, and a beam of white light shot out.

Wan Zhong’s pupils shrank. He immediately stepped forward and caught the light.

The immense force made Wan Zhong take three steps back, and his arm went numb.

Looking closely, it was a guard’s waist token --- engraved with the character “Guang.”

“Your own man told me that Logan Rhys is hiding here,” Zeus said coldly. “Are you still going to deny it?”

“Hiding in my estate?”

Li Guanglong was stunned for a moment but quickly realized what was going on. He shouted,

“Fool! You’ve been tricked. This is clearly someone framing me!” - Ton

This is absolutely not going to end well for the second prince.

Maybe you mean the Third Prince? Cause looks like this conversation is going to uncover who orchestrated this :)

Thanks for the update, Admin Ton

Exactly. They're about to figure it out. My concern is, how is it possible for foreigners to come into stonia and going after princes but no any power sect provide support. Based on this situation, Pantheons can do whatever they want in Dragonmarsh..

He called Zeus a fool. Not going to end well.

That "fool" is based on the translation.

Raw auto translate says "Stupid fellow" but Google translate and Chatgpt both shows "You fool or just Fool". So whichever we go, it's the same lol

Life or Death?

At this moment, Hera was completely terrified. When she saw Dustin effortlessly dissolve her attack, she had already started thinking about retreating. Her instincts told her that Dustin was not someone to be trifled with --- he was an extremely dangerous individual. Still, she clung to a sliver of hope, thinking that with Zeus by her side, the two of them together might still stand a chance. But now, after watching Zeus get severely injured and lose an arm with just one strike, she completely panicked. Her strength was already a bit weaker than Zeus’. If even Zeus couldn’t withstand a single strike from Dustin, there was no way she could either. So, the instant she saw Dustin raise his hand again, Hera didn’t hesitate for even a moment. She pushed off with her feet, launching herself into the air like a streak of light, fleeing rapidly into the sky. At this point, all she wanted was to save her own life. As for Zeus’s survival? That was no longer her concern. Rig...

Elder Whitebone

Li Juntang knew the white figure was powerful, but he hadn’t expected it to be this powerful. In just a matter of minutes, the figure had devoured the overwhelming red mist using a technique like a divine dragon drawing in water, leaving not a trace behind. Such divine ability was far beyond anything he could imagine. Seeing it with his own eyes was far more shocking than anything he’d heard. Once the red mist vanished, the white figure waved a hand, and the energy vortex quickly dissipated. A blood-red bead slowly floated down from high above and finally landed in the white figure’s palm. Seeing the opportunity was ripe, Li Juntang immediately channeled his true qi and shouted, “You have dispersed the poisonous mist with divine powers and saved the entire city from disaster. I, Li Juntang, thank you on behalf of the people of this city. May I have the honor of meeting you face to face to express our gratitude properly?” This statement was skillfully crafted --- first, p...

Transcendent and Otherworldly

A burst of golden light suddenly appeared, neutralizing Zeus’s attack and at the same time saving Margaret from having her cultivation abolished. As the golden light gradually faded, a handsome young man emerged before the crowd. His hair was completely white, his clothes were ragged, but his entire being exuded a transcendent and otherworldly aura. He stood there silently in front of Margaret, like an unshakable mountain. “Dustin?” Seeing the white-haired, handsome man, Margaret finally let out a long breath of relief. She knew she was saved --- and so was everyone in the ancient temple. Although Dustin now had white hair, his appearance hadn’t changed much. But the aura he carried was now touched with an undefinable trace of divinity --- something she had never sensed before. And that alone was enough to prove that Dustin had broken through to a new realm. “You’ve worked hard.” Dustin turned and gave Margaret a gentle nod. A strand of golden light suddenly pou...
