Chapter 2020: Chapter 2047: The Four Saint Kings

In an instant, his fist wind collided with Hong Shan’s, and Hong Shan’s fist wind was directly shattered by that middle-aged man.

"Hong Shan! You’re courting death!" At this moment, a dense killing intent flashed in the middle-aged man’s eyes as he roared furiously.

"Boom~~" A terrifying pressure erupted outright, a mighty aura surging like a flash flood and tidal wave, instantly spreading throughout Dark Night City and drowning it completely. The Martial Artists in Dark Night City, feeling that terrifying power, immediately began trembling uncontrollably, fear rising in their hearts despite themselves.

Then, a small world projection emerged, hanging directly in the Void above Dark Night City, unleashing terrifying pressure.

That middle-aged man was none other than the master of the Dark Night Holy Palace—the Dark Night Saint King! At this moment, the Dark Night Saint King locked his gaze tightly onto Hong Shan, while disdain flickered in Hong Shan’s eyes: "Dark Night Saint King, haven’t you long wanted to kill me? I’m standing right here today. Whether I’m courting death or not, you’ll find out soon enough!"

Hong Shan’s eyes were full of hatred toward the Dark Night Saint King. Back then, the Dark Night Saint King hadn’t even bothered to investigate clearly before believing Purple Dawn Heavenly King’s slander, almost getting Hong Shan killed. In truth, Hong Shan understood that the Dark Night Saint King had sensed his terrifying talent and knew he would surpass him sooner or later. At that point, he would definitely threaten the Dark Night Saint King’s position.

And the Dark Night Holy Palace had existed for a million years, and there had never been any precedent for a woman to take charge as the head.

So the Dark Night Saint King did it on purpose—deliberately believing Purple Dawn Heavenly King’s words, striking at Hong Shan and nearly killing her.

The Dark Night Saint King looked at Hong Shan: "Do you even know who that brat is? He’s the Son of Destruction, an enemy of the Star Lord. The Skyfire Holy Hall has already issued a Bounty Order to kill that kid. And now you actually dare to stand together with Ye Feng. Are you trying to die?" Hearing the Dark Night Saint King’s words, Hong Shan appeared very calm, as if she had long since known.

Although Ye Feng’s current appearance was completely different from the one on the Bounty Order, after seeing Ye Feng’s talent, Hong Shan had already guessed that Ye Feng was very likely the one wanted by the Skyfire Holy Hall. And now it seemed her guess was correct.

Even though the Dark Night Saint King couldn’t see Ye Feng’s true face clearly, he could feel the terror of Ye Feng’s Destruction Dao Body.

The bearer of the Destruction Dao Body was exactly the one they wanted to kill. Right now everyone in Canglan Domain was hunting Ye Feng down.

The Dark Night Saint King looked at Hong Shan: "Hong Shan, hand that kid Ye Feng over to us and never appear in Canglan Domain again. I’ll promise to spare your life. Otherwise, you will die. You should very well know how powerful the Star Lord is!"

At the mention of the two words "Star Lord," a deep dread clearly flashed in Hong Shan’s eyes. She knew very well what the Star Lord represented. In the boundless, vast universe there were endless star domains, and near Canglan Domain there were nine major Star Domains. The Martial Arts civilizations of the nine major Star Domains were not vastly different from Canglan Domain; generally, the strongest were at most at the third-layer realm.

However, the Star Lord was an exception. The Star Lord was recognized as the strongest among the nine major Star Domains, his strength having reached the seventh-layer realm. It could be said he far surpassed any powerhouse within the nine Star Domains, his power utterly terrifying.

Even the Dark Night Saint King, Skyfire Saint King, and the others had to obediently listen to the Star Lord’s orders, not daring to show the slightest resistance.

But Hong Shan still made her own decision: "So what if it’s the Star Lord? Ye Feng was brought here by me today, so I’ll be the one to take him away!" Hong Shan’s eyes were filled with resolve, without the slightest fear.

Hearing Hong Shan’s words, the Dark Night Saint King instantly flew into a rage: "Hong Shan, you really are courting death, is there something wrong with your brain? Do you not understand how powerful the Star Lord truly is? And you still dare to protect Ye Feng?"

Hong Shan snorted disdainfully: "Cut the crap, Dark Night Saint King. If you want to fight, then fight. I’ve already said it—Ye Feng is under my protection!" ℯℯ𝑙.

Everyone looked at Hong Shan, thinking her brain must have broken, to actually oppose the Star Lord for the sake of Ye Feng.

However, Hong Shan knew her choice was correct. Indeed, the Star Lord’s strength had already far surpassed these realm-level experts from the nine Star Domains; no matter how formidable they were, they still couldn’t break through to the fourth-layer realm.

Yet the Star Lord had reached the seventh-layer realm, far above everyone else. But Hong Shan believed that although the Star Lord was powerful, Ye Feng’s father, Ye Zhan, was even stronger. Following Ye Feng was the most correct choice.

The Dark Night Saint King roared in fury: "Fine! Fine! Hong Shan, you’ve really done well. I hope you won’t regret this! Do you think you alone can stand against us?" As his voice fell, the Dark Night Saint King looked toward the Void: "Skyfire, you all can come out now!"

"Boom~~ Boom~~~ Boom~~" In an instant, endless waves of terrifying energy rippled through the Void Star Sea.

In the boundless Void, wave after wave of ripples surged up, Spirit Light flashing as three world projections floated into view.

After that, one mighty Martial Artist after another appeared within Dark Night City, arriving before the Dark Night Saint King.

They were three peak experts, each with an incomparably powerful aura. One was a middle-aged man in a red robe, one a refined young man, and another a noble middle-aged lady. Seeing these three, everyone was stunned.

They were none other than the four rulers of the four regions within Canglan Domain. The middle-aged man was Skyfire Saint King of Canglan Southern Domain. The middle-aged noblewoman was Western Region Saint King, Nine Heavens Saint King. As for the refined youth, he was Sky Wave Saint King of the Eastern Domain!

The four Saint Kings descended together, and their terrifying auras directly crushed the hearts of those around them with extreme fear.

The Martial Artists of Dark Night City all dropped to one knee, one after another, showing submission, not daring to raise their heads to look at them.

They had never expected the four Saint Kings to gather here at the same time, and their auras were locked tightly onto Ye Feng and Hong Shan, clearly unwilling to give them any chance to flee. That pressure filled Hong Shan with intense dread.

Especially the Nine Heavens Saint King and Skyfire Saint King—their cultivations had already reached the second-layer realm.

At this moment, Ye Feng also awoke from his cultivation. Looking at the four Saint Kings, Ye Feng felt somewhat helpless. Ever since leaving Earth, his opponents had seemed abnormally powerful.

With his Semi-Saint realm, his opponents were all Heavenly Saint-level experts, with cultivation more than ten minor levels above his own.
