The Night King: The Asura
Ch-32nd. The Price That Should Be Paid
The five forces that had waited for quite a long time there had finally moved forward to attack Lin Feng, and not only them, the two groups that had previously clashed in the Spirit World had also come forward, too, even those who know nothing come forward.
"Sir, what should we do now?" chun Ming asked, he was very panicked and afraid to see the huge army in front of him.
"Shut up and look!" replied Lin Feng.
"Stop!"
Swoshis!
A voice accompanied by an enormous aura of intimidation managed to stop the troops, then, several people appeared between Lin Feng and the five troops.
"Honor, your highness the emperor."
Under the pressure of their oppressive intimidation, everyone who was there, except for Lin Feng, immediately knelt down and saluted the middle-aged man with golden armor on his body.
"What do you guys want to do? Do you want to cause chaos in this empire?" asked the middle-aged man who was none other than the emperor of the Song Country, which was the country they were in now.
"Your majesty, we don't mean to cause chaos, we just want to teach that selfless man a lesson" one of the kings gave himself to answer the emperor's question.
"Not know yourself? It is you who do not know yourself! Don't you know that he's an imperial envoy?!"
Everyone was astonished and shocked at the words of emperor Song, as well as Lin Feng who never expected that the emperor would say that, even so, he remained as calm and relaxed as ever, because he already knew who was behind it all.
"What do you mean by bringing the emperor here?" asked Lin Feng through telepathy.
"Your majesty, forgive me servant, but servant did this for the good of all of them" replied the God of life who disguised himself as one of the emperor's subordinates.
"Alright, but you must be willing to fight with me" said Lin Feng.
The life god shuddered in horror at Lin Feng's words, even though he was a God, but Lin Feng's figure wasn't something he could deal with easily, rather, he would only be a fist samsak if he dared to face off against Lin Feng.
"Y-his highness, ha-servant has no courage to it, how could a servant dare to fight a ruler figure like his majesty."
"If you don't dare, then don't try to stop me, or I will ravage this empire!"
Wush!
An extremely terrifying aura of death spread all over the place to create an extremely overwhelming horror, even the people there instantly trembled in fear as the aura swept over their bodies.
"Your Majesty, please do not be angry, I am ready to bear all their mistakes."
The god of life forgot about his pride as a God, he immediately knelt down while begging Lin Feng for forgiveness, and that immediately made everyone startled, although they did not know that the kneeling man was a God of life, but his attitude clearly caused many question marks.
"Your Majesty, forgive us all"
emperor Song also did the same, he did not care anymore about his status as an emperor, because all that mattered to him right now was the lives of everyone who was there, although he had no connection whatsoever to the matter, but after all, those people were residents of the Song empire.
"Don't that person be greater than the emperor? If that's true, it means we're in big trouble now."
"Once we're done, we're all gonna die!"
An immense fear enveloped everyone, despite not knowing the identity of the man they had offended, but the attitude of Emperor Song had already shown that they had wrongly offended people. The proof, an emperor alone knelt down and begged for forgiveness, then who were they that dared to offend that person so much?
"Well" Lin Feng let out a long sigh to calm himself down, even though he was very upset, but he couldn't possibly attach much importance to his selfishness alone, "Alright, I'll forgive you, but there's a price to pay!"
"Thank you, your majesty" replied Emperor Song.
After which, Emperor Song stood up and faced the troops, "I think you all already know what you should do!" said it.
In this world of extremely ruthless cultivators, there were only two things that would happen if one dared to offend the wrong person. First, if the mentioned does not grant forgiveness, then it must be prepared to lose life or lose all achievements in cultivation.
Second, if the person mentioned gives forgiveness, then there is a price to be paid as compensation, namely by providing valuable resources owned, and must cut one finger as a sign of apology. But that will only happen if the person being offended asks for it.
And at this time, Lin Feng had already granted them forgiveness by not taking the lives of all of them, therefore, they had to give up the precious resources they had, he said, then they also had to give up one finger to cut. If you refuse, the risk is death.
"We understand, your majesty" they said in unison.
After which, they took out all the precious resources they had from his storage ring, then gathered them all in one place, then after that, they took out their respective weapons and instantly cut off his little finger.
Emperor Song then faced towards Lin Feng, "Your Majesty, are you satisfied?"
Lin Feng nodded softly, "Although I really want to finish them all off, but what they did was already quite satisfying to me."
"Thank you, your majesty" said the Song emperor, then turned his gaze to the entire army, "You can all leave now, and remember, lest you make the same mistake again!"
"Okay, your highness!"
Upset and angry, that's for sure, anyone will be upset and angry if they experience the same thing as them, but no matter how much anger and frustration they feel, they feel, they could only harbor it for themselves, as it was absolutely impossible for them to vent that irritation.
Regretfully, that was also certain, but what else should they regret? For what they had just experienced was the fruit of their own deeds. After all, there was no point in them regretting something that had happened. Instead, all they have to do now is to remember the incident well, so that in the future they do not experience the same thing again.
"Chun Ming, you can take some of those resources for yourself" said Lin Feng after all those people left.
"Master, I don't..."
"Don't argue with me!"
"Bright, sir." Chun Ming could only obey Lin Feng obediently, because after the incident just now, he was increasingly convinced that Lin Feng was a very extraordinary figure and there was no way he would dare to refute his words.
"Emperor Song, there's something I want to ask you."
