Chapter 1193: There Is No Threa (1/2)
”High grade emperor rank Five Elements Godhead!” Zhu Feng jumped to his feet in surprise, ”You mean the Five Elements Godhead ranked four hundred and fifty-eighth? Zhu Feng didn't look so good.
Lu Tai nodded heavily. It was normal for Zhu Feng to react this way, wasn't he the same when he first heard about it? That was a high grade emperor rank godhead, not merely a low grade one!
Although Zhu Feng, as the Fortune Gate's Young Lord, also had an emperor rank godhead, his was a low grade emperor rankFirmament Sea Godhead ranked eight hundred and twenty-one. It was higher than Zhou Xu, but the gap was too big compared to Huang Xiaolong!
Zhu Feng was the Fortune Gate's Young Lord, but that did not mean the Gate Chief position would be his to inherit. According to long established Fortune Gate rules, if there was a disciple who had higher talent than Zhu Feng, they were naturally qualified to compete with him for the Gate Chief position.
Hence, even though getting a high grade emperor rank godhead disciple was good news, to Zhu Feng it was nothing good
”Gate Chief, Golden Brow, Myriad Flames, Black Ice, Sky Sword, Blood Knife, and Lightning Hammer Ancestors had personally inspected it, there should be no mistake.” Lu Tai went on, ”Although this Huang Xiaolong's godhead isn't like Li Lu's or Wang Wei's, Golden Brow Ancestor particularly likes him due to the nature of his godhead and values him quite a bit.”
Speaking of this, Lu Tai described Golden Brow Ancestor's happy reaction after inspecting Huang Xiaolong's godhead to Zhu Feng.
Though Li Lu and Wang Wei's godheads were ranked higher than Huang Xiaolong’s, neither of them had metal element force. Huang Xiaolong's Five Elements Godhead had it, which meant that it was suited to inherit Golden Brow Ancestor's technique.
Hearing this, Zhu Feng's face darkened even more.
”In any case, Young Lord needs not worry. In another hundred years is the election for the next Gate Chief.” Lu Tai reminded, ”As high as Huang Xiaolong's talent is, his cultivation cannot reach the Ancestor God Realm before then, therefore he is no threat to Young Lord. In fact, subordinate thinks it would be more beneficial to Young Lord in winning that position if we could bring Huang Xiaolong to our side!”
The Fortune Gate Chief changed every three hundred thousand years, however, according to the rules, only Ancestor God Realm cultivators with an emperor rank godhead could be the next Fortune Gate Chief.
Zhu Feng's expression finally relaxeda little, a smile on his face. ”You're right, Huang Xiaolong is no threat to me at all. He's still just a peak late-Tenth Order Heavenly God Realm, isn't he? In a hundred years or so,no matter how fast his cultivation will rise, he cannot break through to the Ancient God Realm.”
Lu Tai laughed, ”That is so. Young should Lord first bring Huang Xiaolong to your side, then obtain Li Lu's favor. If you dual cultivate with her and absorb her yin essence, Young Lord can definitely advance to the Ancestor God Realm in a hundred years. At that time, Myriad Flames Ancestor and Black Ice Ancestor will naturally choose to support Young Lord. Adding the Sect Chief's support, Young Lord rising to that position is only right and proper, Wang Wei definitely cannot compete with Young Lord.”
Zhu Feng nodded, a smile on his face. He then changed the subject, ”Miss Li Lu is still in the Pure Snow Manor?”
”Mn, she's at the Pure Snow Manor right now.” Lu Tai nodded.
”Good.” Zhu Feng said, ”Have someone prepare some snowflake jelly, I'll be making a trip.”
He knew that Li Lu liked snowflake jelly.
……
In another place inside the city, Huang Xiaolong, Yao Chi, Lu Zhuo, and others were standing in front of a residence on the southside of Fortune City.
This residence had just been bought with Huang Xiaolong's winnings from his three hundred billion bet.
The gambling house was operated by several super trading houses, but facing Huang Xiaolong, the gambling house dared not play any tricks, giving Huang Xiaolong his winnings of 1.5 trillion. The gambling house’s higher echelon even walked Huang Xiaolong out to the entrance.
”Golden Yang Divine Manor.” This was the manor's original name. However, after a second thought, Huang Xiaolong raised an arm, erasing two characters and changing it to 'Myriad Gods Manor'.
The Myriad Gods Manor was the name of the residence where his family lived in the lower realm.
