Chapter 187: Reputation
The traces of the tempest that had just recently concluded disappeared under the heavy rain.
If it weren’t for the fact that everyone had seen the terrifying God’s Domain, the strange moon rising from the sea, the Great Dao descending into the mortal realm, and the entire imperial capital becoming a part of that same terrifying God’s Domain.
None of the spectators would probably believe that such might was possible in the current era.
Especially the Buddha Demon Golden Body that appeared all of a sudden.
Be it the Northwest King or the Demon Swordsman, they were no match for the Buddha Demon Golden Body.
In front of the Buddha Demon Golden Body, they were as weak as mortals.
Just as Lin Jiufeng stated.
A mere mortal actually dared to spy on god?
After the Buddha Demon Golden Body defeated them, it disappeared from everyone’s sight.
The God’s Domain also disappeared along with it.
The imperial capital remained the same.
The Forbidden City was still the same Forbidden City.
But in the eyes of outsiders, the Forbidden City of the Yuhua God Dynasty had truly become a terrifying “Forbidden City”. None of those that called themselves “powerful” dared to cause trouble within its territory.
No—they didn’t dare to cause trouble within the Yuhua God Dynasty.
Lin Jiufeng’s might shocked everyone, including the people of the Yuhua God Dynasty.
The Northwest King and Demon Swordsman were so powerful, but in front of Lin Jiufeng, they had no ability to resist at all.
They were like chickens in a slaughterhouse.
The rebellion that attracted the attention of everyone in the world ended just like that.
The fires of rebellion were extinguished by a simple slap from Lin Jiufeng.
On the banks of the Wei River, the Seven Great Sages watched silently.
They didn’t know what to say.
The most arrogant Demon King Dapeng pursed his lips at this moment.
He was very reluctant to admit defeat, but at this moment, he knew that he was also unable to defeat Lin Jiufeng.
“Damn it! How can he be so powerful?” Demon King Dapeng couldn’t help but curse.
“I’ve fought with that Demon Swordsman before. He’s truly powerful. His moves are so fast that I found it unbelievable. But despite that, he still lost.” Demon King Gui shook his head.
“I’ve also met that Northwest King. Back then, I knew that I wouldn’t be able to gain an advantage against him if he used his Great Desolate Eight Techniques,” said Bai Zilong.
“They are very strong, but in front of that person, to think that they would be so fragile!”
Demon King Pingtian smiled bitterly.
He thought that he already knew just how powerful Lin Jiufeng truly was.
But Lin Jiufeng was stronger than he thought.
“That God’s Domain is too scary…”
“Not only it could accommodate two domain phenomena at the same time, but it also has that Buddha Demon Golden Body in it. That person’s true body wasn’t even present in the battlefield, but he still crushed those rebels.” Demon King Yuan hissed.
“Fortunately, we didn’t go to the imperial capital and participate in the siege. Otherwise, we would probably be dead by now.” The Great Sage of the Dreaming, Yun Shanhai, said with lingering fear.
“Only now did I find out that he doesn’t care about me at all. From the beginning, he never placed me in his eyes. Once that God’s Domain appears, I will definitely lose. That is why even if I am out here, what can I possibly do against the Yuhua God Dynasty?”
Demon King Jiao laughed at himself.
“In short, we cannot provoke that person. He’s not someone we can deal with. But since he released you, it clearly means that he never placed us in his eyes from the start. Let’s just get out of here and do our own matters.” Demon King Pingtian suggested.
“But I am still going to go back…”
“I’ll take care of the members of my monster race at Dreamcloud Great Swamp first.”
“After all, I still want to create a prosperous era for the monster race like what we enjoyed in the past.”
“Then afterwards, I will wait until the world’s spiritual energy has finally recovered to its peak…”
“I don’t believe that he can still remain indomitable when those invincible powerhouses come into being. Will that person hiding behind the scenes still be able to suppress the entire world on his own by then? I don’t think so!” Demon King Dapeng gnashed his teeth.
“Let’s go…”
“It’s time for me to gather the other members of the monster race, so we can speed up the recovery rate of the world’s spiritual energy. We can’t resist the Yuhua God Dynasty for now. At this stage, we should just behave like a bunch of cowardly turtles.”
Demon King Yuan said helplessly.
The other sages agreed with the proposed idea.
They decided to remain incognito until the golden age of this brand-new era arrived.
…
It wasn’t just the Seven Great Sages that retreated. There were many factions that originally planned to take advantage of this opportunity to snatch away the Yuhua God Dynasty’s land and territory.
But at this moment, they decided to go against their original ideas.
They became very obedient, not daring to become enemies with the Yuhua God Dynasty anymore.
This included the demonic sects that also wanted to make their moves.
The demonic sects and those Demons, Demon Kings, and Demon Gods who witnessed the scene on the battlefield couldn’t help but remember how they suffered in the hands of Lin Jiufeng back in the Cold Palace.
They had lived peacefully for decades without any news of Lin Jiufeng. They thought that they would forget about this matter, but after the siege of the Yuhua God Dynasty’s imperial capital, and the rebels’ defeat without any suspense…
They couldn’t help but remember those scenes once again.
That brat from back then had become even stronger than what they had ever imagined.
Upon recalling Lin Jiufeng’s methods, the powerhouses of the demonic sects collectively shut their mouths.
They continued to hide, not daring to show their heads.
The others did the same.
Suddenly, it was as if a spring breeze had arrived at night.
The world became peaceful.
The citizens cheered and exclaimed Emperor De’s name.
The legend of the Yuhua God Dynasty’s guardian deity became a popular topic throughout the dynasty.
All sorts of things that happened decades ago were made popular once again.
Only then did everyone remember that Lin Jiufeng had already protected the Yuhua God Dynasty so many times behind the scenes.
Moreover, everyone also discovered that the Yuhua God Dynasty’s guardian deity had long appeared before the world.
His image was immortalized in the form of a statue placed in front of the mountain gate of the Martial Temple Headquarters by Emperor De.
The Martial Temple Headquarters was becoming larger and larger. Its buildings spanned mountain ranges from their feet up to their summits.
The core disciples of the Martial Temple numbered more than 100,000.
Everyone walked past the entrance of the Martial Temple every day, but very few people noticed and wondered about the identity of the young man depicted in the unique statue.
The statue had stood here for decades. In the past, everyone only knew that this person was the nominal Mountain Leader of the Martial Temple.
The Martial Temple used to be a place to learn martial arts, but it had slowly increased its courses and subjects.
Today, the Martial Temple also had courses regarding morals, intellect, physical development, art, and even vocational courses which helped students become more attractive to future employers.
The Yuhua God Dynasty’s guardian deity was the nominal Mountain Leader of the Martial Temple and its branches.
But this Mountain Leader never made an appearance thus far. As a result, everyone slowly stopped caring about him.
This time, however, after it was revealed that the nominal Mountain Leader of the Martial Temple was the Yuhua God Dynasty’s guardian deity…
After it was revealed that he was the terrifying existence that suppressed the rebels in the siege of the imperial capital…
The people of the world erupted.
They all squeezed into the Martial Temple Headquarters and looked at the lifelike statue at the entrance.
Unknowingly, Lin Jiufeng became famous throughout the world, including his appearance.
But the person himself had no idea about any of these.
He stayed in the Cold Palace and played with the white cat before welcoming the visiting Emperor De.
“Big Grand-Uncle, you protected the Yuhua God Dynasty again!” Emperor De said gratefully.
“I promised your Grandpa Emperor that I would protect the Yuhua God Dynasty.”
Lin Jiufeng lightly smiled.
“Big Grand-Uncle, will you continue to stay in the imperial capital?” Emperor De asked.
“No, I am going to take a look at the Northwest Territory.” Lin Jiufeng shook his head.
Since the Northwest King had come to the imperial capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty, Lin Jiufeng had a reason to go to the Northwest Territory.
“Big Grand-Uncle, the Northwest Territory has its own sect. The people there are tough from the hardships that they had to endure every day. You must be careful,” Emperor De said.
“The Northwest Territory. Is it stable?” Lin Jiufeng asked.
“No…”
“There are many powerhouses that have appeared in the Northwest Territory recently, and there are also the Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest. They are very powerful for mere bandits and are also ridiculously arrogant.” Emperor De shook his head and replied.
“I understand.” Lin Jiufeng calmly stroked the white cat.
Eighteen Bandits of the Northwest?
Lin Jiufeng didn’t place them in his eyes.
