1423 Time to Meet An Old Friend!
“Elder Lin.”
Not long after, Supremacy Round Heart personally came to find Lin Feng.
“Elder Round Heart, have you investigated thoroughly?”
“That’s right. The Lodge Master of the Opulent Lodge, Supremacy Radiance, has been living in seclusion recently. Moreover, he gave an order to withdraw all the forces of the Opulent Lodge. They’re adopting a defensive stance. This isn’t quite right.”
Supremacy Round Heart’s face was filled with confusion.
The Opulent Lodge’s momentum was at its peak now. How could it suddenly adopt a defensive stance? That was, unless Supremacy Radiance already knew what had happened here.
“There’s nothing strange about it. Supremacy Radiance must have learned what happened here. Forget it, Supremacy Radiance is an old friend of mine. I’ll meet him again. Elder Round Heart, the First Light has to be prepared to take over the Opulent Lodge completely.”
“What? Take over the Opulent Lodge?”
Supremacy Round Heart still couldn’t catch on. A few days ago, the Opulent Lodge was still covetously trying to annex the First Light. Yet the First Light was going to take over the Opulent Lodge instead now?
He knew that the five Supremacies of the Opulent Lodge had already been eliminated by Lin Feng alone. Moreover, according to investigations, there were no other Two-star Supremacies in the Opulent Lodge. It could be said to be at its weakest.
However, no matter what, there was a “backer” behind the Opulent Lodge, and it was very powerful. Once powerful Supremacies descended from the Opulent Lodge Headquarters in the medium chiliocosm, the First Light would be in trouble.
Hence, Supremacy Round Heart could not help but remind him, “Elder Lin, isn’t this too rash? Although you’ve eliminated the five Supremacies, the Opulent Lodge has a deep foundation. If we completely defeat the Opulent Lodge, the Opulent Lodge Headquarters behind it will probably be completely enraged. Then, it will be a fight to the death.”
Supremacy Round Heart did not want to provoke the Opulent Lodge further.
However, Lin Feng shook his head slightly and laughed coldly. “Supremacy Round Heart, your reservations are actually completely pointless. Even if we do not make a move, will the Opulent Lodge let go of their grudge completely? I’ve eliminated five Two-star Supremacies. How can the Opulent Lodge forget it? No, they’ll only accumulate strength and unleash it! Since we’ve already fallen out with each other, what’s there to worry about? Moreover, the situation at the Opulent Lodge Headquarters isn’t as good as we imagined. Supremacy Vicissitude has already told me everything. Even if we attack the Opulent Lodge now, the Chiliocosm Sovereign behind it can’t spare the time now. Hence, we have no reservations during this period of time.”
Hearing this, Supremacy Round Heart opened his mouth, but hesitated. In the end, he did not say anything. Now, First Light was relying on Lin Feng for everything.
Lin Feng had indeed completely integrated into the First Light. However, it was not that the Opulent Lodge had “assimilated” Lin Feng, but that Lin Feng had completely taken over the First Light.
In fact, Lin Feng’s authority was already greater than Supremacy First Light’s back then. The Elder Council already existed in name only. The unique system that the First Light was famed for seemed to be completely ineffective against Lin Feng.
Supremacy Round Heart knew the reason very well. In the end, it was still about strength. Lin Feng was too strong, so strong that he could ignore all rules and regulations.
Even all the forces of First Light combined were not a match for a single finger from Lin Feng.
With such a gap, was it possible for the First Light to control Lin Feng?
Moreover, Supremacy Round Heart also knew that for the current situation, it was not that Lin Feng needed the First Light, but that the First Light needed Lin Feng. Hence, he was happy to support Lin Feng.
“All right, I’ll make the arrangements immediately!”
Supremacy Round Heart did not hesitate at all. Since Lin Feng had already made up his mind, he would fully support him. The First Light had always kept a low profile. In the past, keeping a low profile could still allow it to protect itself and maintain stability.
But now, First Light had already been targeted by the Opulent Lodge. There was no longer any point in keeping a low profile. In that case, they might as well follow Lin Feng and embark on a new path.
As for whether this path would lead to rebirth or destruction, that would depend on luck.
Lin Feng did not know what was going through Supremacy Round Heart’s mind. He did not think much of it. The Opulent Lodge did not threaten him now. The true threat was the Opulent Lodge Headquarters, and… the Epochal Cataclysm!
Strength. Lin Feng urgently needed to increase his strength!
That ancient battlefield was a choice. Lin Feng could sense that the sea of lightning in that ancient battlefield contained a large number of Boundary Stones. Once he obtained the Boundary Stones in the sea of lightning, Lin Feng’s strength would definitely advance by leaps and bounds.
However, with Lin Feng’s current strength, even if it increased by tenfold, he might not be able to withstand the attack of the sea of lightning and obtain the Boundary Stones in the sea of lightning.
Right now, what Lin Feng needed the most was to increase his strength.
A billion years might be a long time, but the Opulent Lodge Headquarters might not give Lin Feng a billion years. Whether it was the threat of the Opulent Lodge Headquarters or the Epochal Cataclysm, Lin Feng needed to increase his strength quickly.
Then, expansion was Lin Feng’s only choice.
If he just relied on himself, even if he worked for every moment every day, how many Boundary Stones could he collect? Only by constantly expanding the forces of the First Light could he collect all the Boundary Stones in range of their influence, and improve his strength.
Lin Feng’s first target was the Opulent Lodge.
“It’s time to meet an old friend.”
A strange smile appeared on Lin Feng’s lips. Then, his figure flashed, and he left First Light.
…
In the Opulent Lodge, Supremacy Radiance was hiding in a secret chamber.
This secret chamber was personally created by Supremacy Radiance. Hence, it was very safe. It was also the place where Supremacy Radiance contacted the Opulent Lodge Headquarters in the medium chiliocosm.
“Ten days. A full ten days have passed, but there’s actually no response from the headquarters,” Supremacy Radiance muttered softly. His heart could not help but sink.
Ten days ago, he had already learned about the situation in the battle with the First Light. Five Two-star Supremacies, including Supremacy Seven Treasures and Supremacy Vicissitude, had joined forces to attack the First Light.
But what was the final outcome?
All of them had been defeated! This was simply unbelievable. When Supremacy Radiance heard this news, his first thought was actually disbelief.
These five Supremacies had descended from the medium chiliocosm and followed His Majesty the Chiliocosm Sovereign. They possessed all kinds of incredible abilities. Even Supremacy Seven Treasures had descended from the medium chiliocosm. Yet all five peak experts were actually defeated by Lin Feng alone.
This was undoubtedly absurd. How could Supremacy Radiance believe it?
But as time passed, Supremacy Radiance eventually came to believe it, because that was the reality!
Hence, ten days ago, Supremacy Radiance had already withdrawn the defense line of the Opulent Lodge, and reported the situation to the headquarters in the medium chiliocosm immediately.
However, ten days had passed, but there was no response from the headquarters.
There was only one possibility that could explain this situation, and it was that even the headquarters in the medium chiliocosm could do nothing about it!
“We’re in trouble. For some reason, the headquarters hasn’t responded yet. They’re probably unable to do anything as well. There’s not even a Two-star Supremacy in the Opulent Lodge now. It’s very dangerous. I hope that man from the First Light still has some reservations, and won’t really fall out with us. Otherwise, the consequences will be unthinkable.”
Supremacy Radiance no longer held much hope for the headquarters of the medium chiliocosm. Instead, he could only pray that his “old friend” in the First Light, who had “cooperated” with him in the past, might have some reservations about the Opulent Lodge Headquarters in the medium chiliocosm, and would not dare to act rashly.
Still, as Supremacy Radiance thought of that figure, Supremacy Radiance wondered if he would really have reservations.
“Supremacy Radiance, long time no see. You look as good as ever!”
Suddenly, a new and slightly familiar voice sounded in Supremacy Radiance’s ear. Supremacy Radiance’s expression shook as he lifted his head abruptly. His mental power swept over a figure who had appeared outside the secret chamber, and his heart sank completely.
