Swallowed Star 2: Land of Origin

The two eternal true gods from the Qumeng Clan who had been drinking and chatting turned their heads, keenly watching Luo Feng in the distance as he outwardly released his aura.

"Is his spiritual will so weak? Merely a performance of a musical illusion technique and he's lost control?"

"It's likely he's an eternal true god who luckily broke through in some remote tribe and doesn't possess a secret technique to cultivate spiritual will, that's why he's so weak."

"Such a serious flaw in the mind is easily targeted."

They watched with amusement. As members of the royal 'Qumeng Clan,' they felt superior to the other eternal true gods outside their clan! In their view, these outsiders had crude secret techniques and inferior secret treasure weapons. Luo Feng, they thought, was just the type to have hardly cultivated his spiritual will, lucky to become an eternal true god.

"What a fine Hundred Flowers Banquet, but he's ruined the mood." The tall figure covered in black fur, with eyes full of anger, had been deeply immersed in the music, enjoying a first-rate experience, but Luo Feng's actions had disturbed his pleasure.

He was none other than 'Lai Mo,' the third leader of the 'Blood Python Association' from the Dark Forces.

"A newly emerged eternal true god is not worth much concern." A figure cloaked in black scales sipped his drink, "The Dream Flower Tower Master will soon ask him to leave, otherwise, he will disrupt the entire banquet."

This black-scaled figure was the leader of the Blood Python Association.

"Interesting," Lord Bai Wu observed Luo Feng with one eye from beneath his misty form.

At this moment, the other eternal true gods in the hall were also paying attention to Luo Feng. After all, an eternal true god releasing his aura would naturally trigger the vigilance of others, a kind of instinct.

Seeing this, the Dream Flower Tower Master who had been performing the musical illusion technique had no choice but to temporarily stop.

"I knew he was susceptible to musical illusion techniques, but I didn't expect him to lose control." The Dream Flower Tower Master was helpless, she had to consider the feelings of other esteemed guests.

Once the illusion technique ceased,

Luo Feng quickly regained his composure, becoming aware that everything in his room—the table, food, and drinks—had all been utterly destroyed. The eternal true gods from the surrounding buildings were all looking in his direction, seemingly discussing something.

"I've lost control," Luo Feng thought to himself, "It seems that practicing the 'Seven Emotions Heart Refining Technique' isn't quite suitable while listening to the music of the Dream Flower Tower Master."

"Sorry about that, Brother Shang," Luo Feng, who had been sitting cross-legged, immediately got up and apologized to Shang Tianyan beside him.

"It's nothing," Shang Tianyan laughed heartily, "I just didn't expect you to be more immersed than me."

"The Tower Master's music is indeed extraordinary," Luo Feng smiled, "It brought back many memories... I'll go for a walk outside, Brother Shang, you all carry on."

Luo Feng glanced at Morosa and then walked towards the exit. Morosa promptly followed.

As Luo Feng left the building, he nodded slightly towards the Dream Flower Tower Master in apology, then led his servant Morosa away.

"He did not look at me with passion," the Dream Flower Tower Master felt a hint of disappointment in her heart. Being immersed in the illusion didn't necessarily mean falling in love with her, "But his resistance to the illusion technique is clearly weak, there's still a chance."

"Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for the slight disruption..." The Dream Flower Tower Master's soothing voice arose, naturally comforting their minds.

"This unfamiliar eternal true god probably isn't very strong."

"Apart from that, his spiritual will seems rather weak."

As the group of eternal true gods watched Luo Feng leave, they all formed their own opinions.

...

"Master, aren't we attending the Hundred Flowers Banquet any longer?" Morosa followed Luo Feng.

"There's not much point in attending," Luo Feng shook his head. Without practicing the 'Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique,' the illusion technique wasn't worth mentioning. But if he did practice it, he temporarily exceeded his own limits and would lose control.

Compared to that, musicians at the true god of void space level were more suitable for him.

"Supreme." Green-robed attendant Yulu also followed along.

"Arrange another place," Luo Feng instructed, "And, have Araya come over."

The green-robed attendant nodded and immediately began to arrange it via a transmission token. After a while, she whispered, "Supreme, the Hundred Flowers Banquet is being held today! The Dream Flower Tower has many guests, and Araya is performing elsewhere at the moment, it might take a while before she can come over."

"Oh?" Luo Feng scanned with a glance, his Perfect Divine Body's sensitivity immediately locked onto a hall, where Araya was performing.

******

In that hall,

Araya stood there, her body covered in vines that stretched out and coiled around various musical instruments. The instruments resonated naturally under the drive of divine power, plunging the guests into an illusory realm.

As soon as the performance ended, Araya immediately bowed to take her leave.

"Wait a moment." One of the young men sitting in the place of honor spoke up. This young man had four purple horns on his head like a crown and eyes burning with purple flames. Anyone with a bit of knowledge could recognize that this youth was a scion of the 'Moli Clan' from Huyang City.

Araya had to pause.

"I've been to the Dream Flower Tower many times and listened to countless pieces of music, but you are the most talented musician I've encountered," the young man from the Moli Family began, "I, Moli Lian, formally invite you to become a musician for our Moli Clan. Are you willing?"

Araya's heart trembled at the invitation from the scion of the Moli Clan. She didn't want to go. Entering such a top clan could mean becoming a mere plaything.

Next to Moli Lian sat a red-haired man who spoke with a laugh, "Araya, Moli Lian is a genius among the younger generation of the Moli Family and has even been personally mentored by Commander Moli Xiao of the Huyang Legion, with great prospects of becoming an eternal true god. His personal invitation is an honor for you. What is there to hesitate about?"

"I am a musician of the Dream Flower Tower, I cannot leave without permission," Araya said softly.

"As long as you agree, the Dream Flower Tower Master will still give face to my Moli Clan," Moli Lian said with a smile.

"Young Master Moli Lian... I, I don't want to go," Araya said with all the courage she could muster. If she really went to the Moli Clan, she would have no way to contend with the core members of such a powerful clan. She would become a disposable plaything.

Moli Lian's eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Seeing this, the red-haired man immediately said, "Araya, you're from the Thousand Leaves Vine Clan, right? If I'm not mistaken, doesn't your clan lie within our Blood Python Association's territory?"

The Blood Python Association is one of the nineteen dark forces within Huyang City, secretly controlling the entire city.

Araya's face changed upon hearing this.

"The Thousand Leaves Vine Clan has nine True Gods of Void Space and more than ten thousand True Gods, who reside in the Snow Winter District of Huyang City," the red-haired man said, looking at her. "I should remember correctly."

Within the Blood Python Association's territory, for every cultivator with even a bit of background, he remembered them all clearly.

Because he needed to find 'fat sheep,' and once he found them, they would have to be slaughtered!

"Palace Master Duan," Araya hesitated, she didn't want to relent. The path of cultivation was not meant for being treated as a plaything, but she was afraid of the Blood Python Association!

"Duan Moyun, your Blood Python Association's strength is just average," said Moli Lian with a light chuckle, his eyes also turned colder.

The red-haired man also looked at Araya with some annoyance: "Just a little musician, not appreciating the favor, get lost!"

Araya was on tenterhooks and didn't dare to leave. She could see that 'Palace Master Duan Moyun' was very annoyed, and if she really just walked away like this, she feared it would bring great disaster to the entire Thousand Leaves Vine Clan.

Just as Araya was caught in a dilemma, a purple-robed attendant hurried into the grand hall, repeatedly apologizing, "Young Master Moli Lian, Palace Master Duan Moyun, please do not be angry. Since Young Master Moli Lian personally invited her, it's naturally Araya's good fortune. Let me persuade Araya."

Moli Lian nodded slightly.

The red-haired man, Duan Moyun, smirked, "This little musician has quite the courage."

"Yes, yes," the purple-robed attendant agreed, about to pull Araya out with him.

Suddenly—

The entire grand hall quieted down, everyone present seemed to become part of a painting, unable to move or make any sound.

At this moment, a black-haired man with a simple-looking servant walked into the hall.

"Dream Flower Tower?" Luo Feng sneered, "I said I admire Musician Araya! How dare you Dream Flower Tower offer a musician I'm interested in to some kid?"

Everyone present was in a state of shock, including Young Master Moli Lian and Palace Master Duan Moyun.

Their fear was immense.

An Eternal True God turning hostile could easily crush them to death. Although they had their backgrounds, it did not equate to power! For instance, if Luo Feng didn't care for their backgrounds at this moment, they were just two True Gods of Void Space.

"Supreme Lord Luo He!" the green-robed attendant also entered the grand hall, extremely anxious, "It's our Dream Flower Tower's fault."

"Shut up," Luo Feng said.

The green-robed attendant immediately fell silent.

Luo Feng glanced over Palace Master Duan Moyun and Young Master Moli Lian and said indifferently, "From today onwards, the two of you are not allowed to step into the Dream Flower Tower."

"And you, Dream Flower Tower," Luo Feng's eyes swept over the green-robed attendant and the purple-robed attendant, "Araya, you watch her. If you can't protect her, hand her over to me! Understand?"

The green-robed attendant nodded repeatedly.

"As for the Blood Python Association, the Moli Clan, the Dream Flower Tower, anyone who's not satisfied can come to me," Luo Feng said with a slight smile. "I'll entertain them warmly."

After that, the invisible aura receded, and everyone in the grand hall regained their freedom.

But they were all still intimidated, not daring to make a sound for a while.

"Araya, come with me," Luo Feng said, then walked straight out.

"Heh heh heh…" Morosa looked around and laughed a few times before walking out. He'd been ordered 'not to cause trouble,' but if his master Luo Feng caused trouble, Morosa was absolutely in favor.

Araya and the green-robed attendant followed out, both somewhat dazed.

...

Only Young Master Moli Lian, Palace Master Duan Moyun, the purple-robed attendant, and a group of their subordinates were left in the grand hall.

"This is too..." Moli Lian felt indignant yet helpless.

"Completely disregarding the Blood Python Association, the Dream Flower Tower, and the Moli Clan," the red-haired man, Duan Moyun, was furious and immediately reported the detailed situation to the Blood Python Association's President and Vice President through the transmission token.

At this moment, the President of the Blood Python Association and a Vice President were attending the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

"We must inform the Tower Master," the purple-robed attendant also immediately reported the whole situation to the Dream Flower Tower Master.

...

Luo Feng arrived at the familiar Orchid Star Hall, where food and wine had been prepared in advance.

The green-robed attendant whispered, "Supreme, today's events might cause some trouble."

Luo Feng glanced at her, saying nothing.

He had already been very restrained!

To avoid causing great trouble for the musician Araya, he hadn't made a move! When he heard 'Palace Master Duan Moyun' threatening with the Thousand Leaves Vine Clan, Luo Feng felt a murderous intent.

Such coercion, threatening to compel through clan allegiance, was something Luo Feng despised the most.

It would have been satisfying to kill, but it would bring Araya a lot of trouble. Hence, he was very restrained, just giving a few reminders, which was already very merciful!

"Supreme Lord Luo He," a Blood Python Association Member walked to the outside of the hall, respectfully saying, "Vice President Lai Mo is also attending the Hundred Flowers Banquet and, having heard about a small conflict between our Blood Python Association's Palace Master Duan Moyun and the Supreme, has specially sent me to invite the Supreme to the banquet!"

"You want me to attend the banquet?" Luo Feng said, holding his wine cup, "If he wants to see me, let him come in person! There's no reason for me to visit him!"
