Chapter 676 The Big Fool Comes to Assassinate Me



When humanity was just born, they knew nothing, not how to speak, not how to write, not how to make fire, not how to cook, and certainly not how to cast powerful spells...

To better communicate, human ancestors invented language and script; to live longer, they invented fire, cooked with it, ate cooked food to fully nourish their bodies, aiming to extend their lifespans. In the Primordial Era, Ferocious Beasts roamed, and to contest these vicious beasts, human ancestors began developing various spells and special moves, forged terrifyingly powerful treasures from rare metals, and some exceptionally wise individuals, through stargazing at night, meditation, and fierce combat, created earth-shattering Divine Skills.

In the Primordial Era, a saying went around: "When Divine Skills are unleashed, all beasts bow down. Earth-shattering, supremely mighty!"

Regrettably, as eras changed and the descendants fell short of expectations, many Divine Skills were lost, a mournful pity indeed.

Treasures have levels, as do spells.

Treasures are classified as Magic Artifacts, Treasures, and Spiritual Treasures.

Spells are divided into Low Rank, Middle Rank, and High Rank spells. Divine Skills transcend High Rank spells; strictly speaking, the power wielded by Divine Skills is even more formidable than that of Spiritual Treasures.

Logically, with Gao Fei's current Cultivation, it should be impossible for him to create Divine Skills, but he did, which can only be described as a miracle!

In the entirety of Elysium, those who could create Divine Skills… were few and far between.

"My lord!" Chen San knocked and entered, "He Hentian is here, and he's brought quite a few guards with him."

"Oh?" Gao Fei raised an eyebrow, "What does he want?"

"I think he's here for no good," Chen San stated.

"Let him in," Gao Fei said evenly, "I want to see what he's up to."

"Okay." Chen San nodded and turned to leave.

It wasn't long before Chen San returned, followed by a man with a fierce countenance and a somber face—It was He Hentian.

"He Hentian! What are you here for?" Gao Fei asked.

"You have experts protecting you, right?" He Hentian scanned around, paying particular attention to any possible hiding spots for people, "Where are those experts? Bring them out!"

"What experts?" Gao Fei frowned, "What are you talking about? I don't understand!"

"Don't play dumb with me!" He Hentian seethed, "Dugu Jingtian was worried about your safety in Heavenly Water City, so he sent a few experts to secretly protect you!"

"Is that so?" Gao Fei was startled, "How come I don't know about this?"

"Keep pretending! Let's see how long you can keep this up."

"Pretend what? I truly don't know. Where did you get this information? It's not false, is it?"

"Gao Fei! I thought you were a man of principle, talented, someone who did things by the book, but now I see you clearly—you are nothing but a despicable person, a bastard, a damn beast."

"He Hentian!" Gao Fei's face darkened, "Mind your language! Insult me again, and I won't be polite to you anymore."

"Not be polite to me?" He Hentian scoffed, "Just you? You want to be impolite to me? In Heavenly Water City, I am a god! I decree who lives and who dies. Just because there's a bet between us does not mean I'm afraid to deal with you. You push me too far, and I'd rather be known as untrustworthy than spare you." He Hentian was hugely impacted by the misfortunes that befell Iron Bull; otherwise, he would not have stormed into the City Lord's Mansion and caused such a scene.

"Are you done?"

"No!"

"Then continue speaking! After you finish, please leave."

"You..."

"Up to now, I still haven't figured out why you're angry. Did I provoke you? Why don't I know about it? Or are you in a bad mood and just looking for someone to vent on? If that's the case, you've picked the wrong target. I, Gao Fei, am not your subordinate. I have no duty or obligation to be your punching bag."

"You bastard!"

"Try cursing at me one more time?"

"I will curse! You bastard! Son of a bitch! I curse you to die a horrible death!"

"A few nights ago, a big idiot came to assassinate me," Gao Fei said slowly, staring into He Hentian's eyes. "The idiot was strong, with a cultivation level at the Second Layer of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. He wanted to kill me, but unfortunately, he ended up being killed by me."

"So it was you who killed Iron Bull!" He Hentian's eyes instantly turned blood red.

"Iron Bull? How do you know the assassin's name?" Gao Fei narrowed his eyes. "Could it be... that the assassin was sent by you?"

"It was me..." He Hentian blurted out.

"It was really you?" Gao Fei's face turned grim. "He Hentian! You call me shameless, but you are even more so. You dare not confront me upfront and can only resort to sneaky tricks. How despicable! I despise you!" With that, Gao Fei raised his middle finger at He Hentian.

He Hentian's face twitched uncontrollably. At this moment, he truly wanted to pounce forward and kill Gao Fei, but the remnants of his reason held him back. He was wary of the masters secretly protecting Gao Fei and didn't dare to make a move (Till this moment, He Hentian still believed that supreme masters were protecting Gao Fei, which was utterly laughable).

"You can be despicable and shameless as a person, but you absolutely cannot lack credibility," Gao Fei said in a deep voice. "If a person doesn't even have the most basic integrity, then he cannot be considered human."

He Hentian took a deep breath, desperately suppressing the rage churning in his chest. "You've got it wrong, I have nothing to do with the assassin."

"Huh?" Gao Fei raised an eyebrow. "Nothing to do with him? But you just admitted it."

"Did I admit it?" He Hentian started to play dumb. "You heard wrong, yes, you must have heard wrong. I never admitted it."

"You... "

"The public order in Heavenly Water City has always been poor. Besides, you've offended quite a few powerful people recently; maybe it was one of them who sent someone to kill you."

"...He Hentian, how thick is your skin? It's even thicker than a city wall."

"Takes one to know one. Your skin is pretty thick too. I have things to do, so I'm leaving." He Hentian turned and strode away. When he reached the door, He Hentian paused. "You can rest assured, I will keep my promise. Until our bet is canceled, I won't make things difficult for you." After these words, He Hentian walked out without looking back.

From beginning to end, Gao Fei did not get up from his seat. He sat in his chair, watching He Hentian leave, his eyes flickering, not know what he was thinking.

"My lord," Chen San leaned in. "He Hentian is truly too arrogant."

"Hmph," Gao Fei snorted softly. "The other side has the capital to be arrogant." Then he added, "The guy has a grandpa who's a proper Crown Prince, very pompous indeed."

"What's there to be pompous about? It's just a good reincarnation." Chen San said discontentedly. "If He Hentian were born into an ordinary family, he definitely wouldn't dare to be so arrogant."

"That's a reasonable point," Gao Fei nodded. "He Hentian is simply riding on the coattails of a good reincarnation." With that, Gao Fei sighed, "Reincarnation really is a profound science."
