Chapter 595: Accept the Challenge! (1/2)
When the judge heard Lin Feng, he remained extremely cautious, on the edge of panic. He didn’t want to be there, but he had no choice; he had to obey orders, since he had become the new head of the judges.
“Leader Lin, I came because our vice leader, Zong Tong, sent me,” replied the judge.
Lin Feng smiled. As he had expected, Jeston and he were right. Zong Tong was proud and had a high social position. He couldn’t accept the challenge according to Lin Feng’s conditions, date, and place, it would be demeaning if he did. He was the vice leader of the Great Alliance of the Hundred Worlds; how could he submit to the conditions of someone like Lin Feng?
“Alright, I’m listening,” Lin Feng said, smiling neutrally and pointing at a chair. The judge sat down quickly. He just wanted to finish what he had to do and leave Tiantai as quickly as possible. He couldn’t possibly relax here.
“Leader Lin, please don’t be angry at me, I’m just here to convey what Vice Leader Zong Tong wants to tell you,” explained the judge. He was afraid that Lin Feng would get angry.
When Lin Feng heard that, he nodded. He knew that the judge just wanted to leave.
“Vice leader Zong Tong told me to warn you: you shouldn’t go too far and push him to the limits. You killed so many of his judges and he didn’t try to punish you. You should be grateful,” said the man. He had mixed feelings, afraid and angry at the same time. He had become the leader of the judges after all, they were his own fellow subordinates.
But now…? He smiled wryly. Avenging his comrades was impossible. Everybody knew how strong Lin Feng was. He only had the aura of the sixth Godly Emperor Layer, but he was much stronger than all other cultivators of the sixth Godly Emperor Layer.
Vice leader Zong Tong had only sent a judge to see Lin Feng. Why didn’t he dare go and see Lin Feng himself? Why did he just send subordinates?
Even though the judges had influence within the alliance itself, in the outside world, he was just an ordinary strong cultivator.
The Judges had competitors, the noblemen. Noblemen had even more influence than judges. All the noblemen had the strength of the sixth or seventh Godly Emperor Layers. Perhaps he might even be able to become a nobleman in the future…
The leader of the judges actually didn’t understand why the alliance hadn’t sent noblemen to deal with Lin Feng. Why send judges?
“Speak now,” Lin Feng said, looking over when he saw the judge had stopped talking. The judge hastily nodded and continued relaying what Zong Tong had told him.
“The vice leader also said that nobody had ever challenged him, and he didn’t wish for the first person to challenge him to be a young man. He wants to give you an opportunity: cancel your challenge, take your letter of challenge back, and let bygones be bygones. He will forget about all this and not bear recriminations,” said the man. He looked up at Lin Feng, “Leader Lin, do you agree?”
“Forget it,” Lin Feng replied indifferently, without looking down. It was the answer the judge expected before coming here.
“If you don’t want to admit his deep and profound kindness, it means you want to hear the second option. Alright… he said that if you refused and really wanted to challenge him, he’d see you in six months at the Dragon Pavilion Mountain and he also hopes that at that point, you won’t flee.
