Hail the King

Chapter 823 - Not That Simple

Chapter 823: Not That Simple (Part One)

After hearing what these Moon-Class Elites said, both Fei and Buckingham frowned and got angry.

However, Fei thought it through and was relieved.

These Moon-Class Elites were fooled by that disciple of the Continental Martial Saint. The angrier they looked, the more righteous they were. Although they weren’t that smart and got tricked, they weren’t evil characters.

However, Buckingham didn’t think that much; he was still furious.

He was a Moon-Class Elite himself, and he was an influential character in the Leon Empire. Although he was severely injured and fatigued in the battle under the sea, it was a blessing in disguise. He broke through the threshold which stopped him from moving forward, and he was now a low-tier Full Moon Elite. Also, while he was with the King of Chambord, he got some tips and pointers, and his strength increased even further. In addition, he was one of the most powerful regional kings of Leon, and he commanded the navy of the empire. There were several Moon-Class Elites who listened to his orders, so he didn’t really think that these men were so prestigious. As a result, he was angered that these few Moon-Class Elites dared to be disrespectful toward him.

However, he was a smart man. After taking a glance at Fei, he understood Fei’s thinking process and realized that these men were only fooled. Therefore, he suppressed his anger and explained, “You are just a bunch of fools! The real traitor of humans is that D’Alessandro, the disciple of Continental Martial Saint Maradona. You guys don’t know anything and can’t tell what really happened. You are being used, and you have no idea! Humph! If it weren’t for the King of Chambord who held back the enemies, that evil god of the Sea Tribe would have appeared already and killed all the humans around the [Sea of Fragrance].”

However, Buckingham’s explanation made the Moon-Class Elites laugh.

“Shameless! Really shameless! You are slandering D’Alessandro, and you want to take his credit? Who is the King of Chambord? How can he stop the evil god of the Sea Tribe? Humph! Buckingham, you are a regional king of Leon, and you are admired by all the citizens. In addition, you enjoyed all the privileges that came from your status, and you are wealthy. However, you lost your mind and made up this lie! What is worse? You are colluding with this dirty Zenitian and betrayed humans! Aren’t you ashamed? Emperor Juninho praised you! Don’t you feel guilty?” A burly man who looked to be 40 years old shouted at Buckingham.

“You...” Buckingham couldn’t hold back his anger anymore.

“Forget it; you can’t explain all this to these fools. Let’s take care of them first.” Fei raised his arm and stopped Buckingham.

Then, he turned around and looked at the Moon-Class Elites around him while laughing impatiently, “You are only Moon-Class Elites, and others are using you. You are too stupid to understand the situation, but you are brave humans who dare to stand up against evil. Therefore, I don’t want to make it difficult for you. You are too weak, and your seal won’t work. If you don’t want to die, go away.”

After saying that, a powerful golden energy appeared on Fei, and he punched at the sky.

A beam of golden light dashed out of his fist, and that silver magic energy sphere which enveloped the area shattered into pieces and quickly disappeared.

The few mages who were at the Moon-Class Realm and were maintaining the energy sphere in stealth received the backlash, and they all puked up blood and turned ashen-faced.

The Moon-Class Elites in the area were all terrified, and they looked at Fei with fear in their eyes.

The [Warrior-Forbidding Seal] which was created by eight Half-Moon Mages was easily destroyed by Fei!

“How come this young traitor is this powerful? It doesn’t make any sense!”

[Warrior-Forbidding Seal] was a killer weapon against warriors, and a lot of famous warriors had died inside such a magic array. Theoretically, eight Half Moon Mages and a lot of top-tier magic crystals should at least create a [Warrior-Forbidding Seal] which would greatly suppress a Sun-Class Lord even if it couldn’t completely destroy such a powerful character.

According to the previous arrangement, the Moon-Class Elites who were inside the [Warrior-Forbidding Seal] right now were wearing magic devices which canceled the warrior energy sealing effect of this array formation on them. Therefore, in their minds, when the King of Chambord’s warrior energy was greatly suppressed, they could charge up and capture this traitor. However, the harsh reality surprised them.

Although they already knew that the King of Chambord was a Sun-Class Lord, his strength was too shocking for them to understand!

For a moment, these brave people who believed that they could take down the traitors were frozen where they stood, and they didn’t know what they should do next.

Fei waved his hand impatiently and said, “I already told you that you are no match for me. If you don’t have anything else, go away already! I don’t have time to waste on fools like you. At least think with your toes and try to figure out who is lying. You are all not children anymore; why are you still acting like them? Why do you believe the person with the highest status? Can’t D’Alessandro lie?”

Fei’s words made these masters angry and embarrassed at the same time.

However, the people who were already this powerful weren’t fools unless they were born mentally disabled. Therefore, they all started to wonder after hearing what Fei said, “It doesn’t seem like the King of Chambord is a despicable traitor of humans. If he betrayed humans and released that evil god of the Sea Tribe, he should kill all of us. After all, he does have the power to do so. Also, D’Alessandro said that the evil god of the Sea Tribe is going to come and kill all the humans around the [Sea of Fragrance], but such a god hasn’t even shown his face yet... Could it be that the King of Chambord is being falsely accused?”

“Guys! Don’t listen to the words of this traitor! We need to see through his lies, and we must rush up and kill him right now!”

“Yeah! Mr. D’Alessandro comes from the Continental Martial Saint Mountain! He is the disciple of the honorable Continental Martial Saint Maradona! Why would he try to slander a little king of an affiliated kingdom?”

Some people hid in the crowd and shouted.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The air-piercing noises sounded, and three to four bright energy flames dashed in the nightly sky and were aimed at Fei and Buckingham. The atmosphere that Fei had just calmed down with a lot of effort was re-ignited. Like a powder keg that was lit on fire, the battle was instantly triggered.

“Kill them! Once we kill them, we will be the heroes of humans!”

“Guys, don’t forget! If we can kill these two b*stards, we will get a lot of bounties! More than 100 empires have offered rewards! Dead or alive!”

“Kill them! Kill them! Perhaps we can even be favored by the most powerful man on the continent, Mr. Maradona!”

“For humans! We must kill them! We can’t hesitate! Otherwise, we will be guilty of the crimes that they will commit in the future!”

Those few people who had spoken earlier changed locations and stated in different voices, trying to stir up trouble in the crowd.

Fei frowned; just as he expected, things weren’t that simple.

These people who were shouting weren’t doing it because they cared for humans. They were on a mission, and they tricked these Moon-Class Elites into coming here and dying in Fei’s hands.

If Fei killed them and got his hands stained by their blood, he would make a lot of enemies. Even if the truth came out later, the grudges between Fei and these Moon-Class Elites’ families and forces wouldn’t be wiped out.

Once the grudges were there, no explanation would be useful.

However, Fei couldn’t just stand here and let them hit him.

It was a vicious trap.

Under the instigation of those few troublemakers, the Moon-Class Elites who were hesitating after hearing Fei’s words used their most powerful strikes and attacked Fei and Buckingham mercilessly.

Like giant sea waves, the energy fluctuations rushed toward the two.

A bloody battle was unavoidable.
