Chapter 970 - 554: Zong Shen: Cheating Really Is Awesome!

So other lords can now straightforwardly see the ownership information of the Flying Tiger.

To say nothing else, Zong Shen’s name alone is already renowned.

There’s no lord in the area who doesn’t know of him.

Therefore, these lords almost immediately gave up their plans to attack.

Some even proactively approached the landing point of the Flying Tiger.

When the Flying Tiger landed by the lakeside.

Those lords had already walked over twenty meters towards here.

Zong Shen glanced with the corner of his eye, not paying much attention.

This group consists of four or five lords in total.

The total number of them and their warriors is about eighty or ninety.

This meager force couldn’t even catch Zong Shen’s eye.

No matter what their motives are, he can cope with ease.

Currently, he has three transformation states.

Using any one of them could multiply his strength by several times.

Not to mention ordinary lords, he wouldn’t even fear a Giant Dragon of the same tier.

With strength comes confidence.

He took out the [Condensed Water Treasure Pearl (Purple)].

He walked to the lakeside, gripping the pearl and submerging it into the water, choosing to activate the [Water Storage] skill.

The [Condensed Water Treasure Pearl (Purple)] immediately became the center of a vortex.

Massive amounts of lake water were absorbed.

This water pearl was like a peculiar sponge.

Possessing an immensely extraordinary water absorption ability.

The fluctuations caused by the [Water Storage] skill even made the lake surface tremble.

You could visibly see waves stirring.

This unusual scene naturally caught the attention of the lords who were ready to come over and make small talk.

They couldn’t help but stop, hesitantly exchanging glances.

Because they didn’t clearly see what Zong Shen did just now.

Only seeing him walk to the lakeside, extending a hand into the water.

And then the lake surface started to change.

This situation seemed obviously off; they knew Zong Shen must be up to something.

So they stopped moving forward.

Seeing that the abnormality in the lake was still ongoing, and nothing alarming happened.

They then continued to step forward.

Zong Shen maintained the grip of the [Condensed Water Treasure Pearl (Purple)] in the water idly.

Yesterday, it was while bathing in the lake that he completed the [Water Storage] by the way.

And now, he was specifically here to perform [Water Storage].

This mindset was different.

Some things, when done in free time, are just casual.

The mood is relatively relaxed.

If it’s done intentionally, it becomes "work."

There might be some impatience.

The entire process of [Water Storage] requires about seven to eight minutes.

After all, it’s 50 tons of water.

No matter how astonishing the suction of the [Condensed Water Treasure Pearl (Purple)] is, it takes time.

At this moment, those lords mustered the courage again, attempting to approach Zong Shen.

When they came forty or fifty meters away from Zong Shen and the Flying Tiger.

They had all their warriors stay put.

These lords, gathered together, came up behind Zong Shen.

The Flying Tiger turned vigilantly, its giant head watching them.

Its tube-like tail with jointed chambers also swung casually.

Because it didn’t feel any hostility, plus its master hadn’t given an attack order.

Thus it didn’t attack these lords directly.

Zong Shen seemed oblivious to the situation behind him, still maintaining the water-fetching stance.

The lords exchanged glances.

They stopped about seven or eight meters behind Zong Shen.

Hesitating for a while, one of the blond lords, who seemed to hold some status among them.

Gathered the courage to step forward by two more steps.

Using as friendly a voice as possible, he greeted Zong Shen.

"Excuse me... are you Lord Zong Shen?"

This blond lord appeared somewhat restrained facing Zong Shen.

After all, Zong Shen to them, these ordinary lords, was considered a legendary formidable figure.

Upon hearing the greeting, Zong Shen lazily turned around.

Casually nodded, considering it a response.

"Yes, that’s me."

His voice was very light, with no emotional undertone.

This left the already somewhat nervous blond lord even more unsure how to respond.

These lords seemed to be members of the same legion.

They had banded together to tackle the Flame Demon Boss.

Situations like this weren’t uncommon in the region.

When the legion rules updated to version 1.1.

Various legion organizations sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

Most small-scale legions will eventually be merged by the top-ranking large legions.

This is inevitable.

The legion merging feature exists precisely to facilitate such mergers simply.

The blond lord turned to his companions for help.

Naturally, their approach was to establish familiarity with Zong Shen.

So that they might get a chance to cling to his coattails in the future.

Currently, Zong Shen’s [Guide Legion] is a much-desired entity in the region.

Ranked first on the regional legion leaderboard.

In the [Legion] option, viewing the legion information reveals the name of the legion commander.

So everyone knew the [Guide Legion] was founded by Zong Shen.

If it weren’t for the legion level and member restrictions.

Plus the [Guide Legion] stopped open recruitment in the past two days.

These restrictions hindered the lords in the region from joining.

Otherwise, these lords would probably have flooded into the [Guide Legion].

While they were hesitating, Zong Shen lost his patience.
