Mechanical God Emperor

Chapter 495 – Bet

Minami Keikaku frowned, then laughed and said: “My Minamino State isn’t Yang Feng’s opponent either! Otherwise, I wouldn’t be sitting here today.”

Once these words were spoken, the other three heads of state creased their brows, and fear shimmered in their eyes.

The tremendous pressure from Yang Feng’s mechanical legion left the four rulers breathless, and forced them to let go of past grievances and sit here together.

Seeing this scene, Hokko Yusei mused: “If I were to suggest that we join forces to eliminate Yang Feng, what will happen?”

The fear the three heads of state had towards Yang Feng exceeded Hokko Yusei’s expectation by far. If he proposed to jointly deal with Yang Feng at this time, there was a 50% chance that the others will agree.

But Hokko Yusei stayed silent. If he proposed to annihilate Yang Feng at this moment, then once the latter got wind of this, he will attack the Kitano State like there was no tomorrow. Even if Yang Feng’s forces were wiped out in the end, the Kitano State will also be destroyed. Hokko Yusei would never do something that helped others but harmed himself.

Clearly, the two heads of state Higashi Ajime and Minami Keikaku also thought of this. A strange atmosphere permeated the scene. From time to time, the three people would look at one another, but one mentioned this.

Nakajo Tsuki Sakura drank magic tea leisurely. With a slight smile on her pretty face, she quietly watched the intrigue between the three rulers.

“The ruler of the Nishino State His Majesty Yang Feng is here!” A loud voice sounded, and Yang Feng followed by Saijo Yoruwa and the mechanical ancient devil walked into the meeting place.

When Hokko Yusei saw Yang Feng, his eyes flashed with killing intent, but then his gaze fell on Saijo Yoruwa behind Yang Feng, and he had no choice but to withdraw the killing intent in his eyes: “That damn wretch is cautious!”

The eyes of Higashi Ajime and Minami Keikaku lit up at first, but then their gazes fell on Saijo Yoruwa and the mechanical ancient devil and their eyes dimmed, and the killing intent in the abyss of their eyes quickly vanished.

Yang Feng was just a junior Starry Sky Warlock (he was concealing his cultivation base). Even with the power of a virtual world, he still wasn’t the opponent of quasi-Glorious Dawn Warlocks.

If Yang Feng came here alone, then Hokko Yusei and them wouldn’t mind to kill Yang Feng directly.

However, since Yang Feng was accompanied by the two powerful combatants Saijo Yoruwa and the mechanical ancient devil, Hokko Yusei and them dispelled this idea in their heads.

Yang Feng sat down on the seat of the Nishino State’s ruler, looked around, and uttered with a smile: “Sorry for being late.”

Higashi Ajime gave a friendly smile and said: “Yang Feng, I am the ruler of the Azumano State Higashi Ajime. Your less than 100 years old, yet you already possess a Starry Sky Warlock cultivation base. You also have become the ruler of the Nishino State! Impressive, really impressive!”

Yang Feng responded indifferently: “I was just lucky!”

“Minamino State’s Minami Keikaku.” “Kitano State’s Hokko Yusei.” Minami Keikaku and Hokko Yusei said coldly.

Nakajo Tsuki Sakura smiled sweetly, and the surrounding scenery seemed to turn a little brighter: “I am the ruler of the Holy Glory State Nakajo Tsuki Sakura. I’m happy to see you here, Your Majesty Yang Feng.”

Yang Feng said: “I’m also happy to make your acquaintance!”

A gloomy expression on his face, Hokko Yusei went straight to the point: “Yang Feng, everything before was a misunderstanding. Please withdraw your forces from the Osoda State, the Kamesha State, and the Darkwood State! They are vassal states of the Kitano State!”

Yang Feng responded with a smile: “The rulers of those have merged their states into the Nishino State of their own volition. Thus, the three states are now my territory. If you don’t believe me, I can summon them and let them testify!”

Nakajo Tsuki Sakura’s eyes revealed a look of amusement.

Hokko Yusei’s eyes, on the other hand, showed anger, and he spoke frigidly: “Since the three heads of state have fallen into your hands, they naturally won’t dare to refute your words. Yang Feng, return the states to me. Otherwise...”

Yang Feng smiled coldly and immediately turned hostile and snapped: “Otherwise? Otherwise what? The Kitano State will declare war on the Nishino State? Alright, let’s go to war!”

Forced into a corner, Hokko Yusei’s face was frosty and his eyes flickered with endless rage, and he barked: “That’s going to far! Fine, when I go back, I’ll summon the Kitano State’s forces and fight you to the death!”

Higashi Ajime spoke with a smile: “Pipe down, you two. Since everyone is gathered here, then let’s have a proper mediation. Mere three lesser states aren’t worth us fighting over them. Therefore, I propose that we solve this in accordance with the custom practiced in the Great Cloud Dynasty. Let’s resolve this in the arena. If you win, then the three states belong to you, Your Majesty Yang Feng. If you lose, then the three states belong to His Majesty Hokko Yusei.”

If there was no life and death feud, some common conflicts between Moonlight Warlock rank experts and above could be resolved in the arena.

This custom was formed because Moonlight Warlock rank experts and above were really too powerful, each one being a moving natural disaster. If two Bright World Warlock rank experts attacked each other recklessly with spells, the fearsome outbreak of power could even destroy a small subcontinent such as the Turandot Subcontinent.

Minami Keikaku promptly echoed the sentiment: “Good idea, I agree!”

Nakajo Tsuki Sakura gave a sweet smile and said: “That’s a good idea. This way, there won’t be many ordinary people dying.”

Hokko Yusei’s countenance flickered several times, and then he released a long sigh: “Since everyone agrees, then I won’t go against everyone’s will. Fine, I agree as well.”

Yang Feng uttered with a cold smile on his face: “I also agree to it. But I don’t agree with the stakes. The leaders of the three states have joined the Nishino State of their own volition. If you want me to bet the three states, then you have to bet the Rige State and the Joto State! Otherwise, let’s just go to war.”

Hokko Yusei’s face changed a number of times before he finally clenched his teeth and agreed: “Fine!”

Yang Feng carried on: “As for the format, using Moonlight Warlocks is too dangerous. Let’s restrict it to below the Moonlight Warlock rank. We’ll both send three people who’ll fight until they’re eliminated. The side that gets wiped out loses.”

“No!” Hokko Yusei’s face changed greatly, and he went on to say: “We should sent five Moonlight Warlocks each and hold five matches. Each combatant can only fight a single time. The side that wins three matches is the victor.”

As Yang Feng was comparable to a junior Moonlight Warlock rank expert in terms of battle prowess, he could sweep the floor with any Starry Sky Warlock of the Fuso Subcontinent. Hokko Yusei naturally understood this point. As such, he couldn’t agree to Yang Feng’s suggestion.

Yang Feng said: “Don’t you want to talk it through?”

After all, the Kitano State was the nr. 1 state of the Fuso Subcontinent. It had two quasi-Glorious Dawn Warlocks, three pinnacle Moonlight Warlocks, and three senior Moonlight Warlocks. Yang Feng couldn’t match its deep foundation. In such a match format, Yang Feng stood no chances at victory.

Hokko Yusei sneered: “Since I have agreed to your stakes, then I should be the one to choose the match format!”

Yang Feng said coldly: “In that case, there’s no point in talking to you. Let’s just go to war.”

Hokko Yusei said with a cold smile: “This our collective decision. Do you want to go against our will, to be our enemy?”

The eyes of Higashi Ajime, Minami Keikaku, and Nakajo Tsuki Sakura flashed as they stared calmly at Yang Feng.

The corners of Yang Feng’s mouth rose into a smile of derision, and he said coldly: “So what? Even if all of my 10 million mechanical golems are gone, but so long as I gain control over the entire Fuso Subcontinent, I can restore my force in less than a century.”

“10 million mechanical golems!” When they heard this, the countenances of Higashi Ajime and Minami Keikaku changed. According to the information at their disposal, Yang Feng’s mechanical legion was only over 6 million strong. Now that they heard this figure, billows were set off in their hearts.

If all the forces of the three major states were mobilized, they could theoretically defeat Yang Feng. But as the three major states were as incongruous as water and oil, they didn’t have the confidence to defeat Yang Feng. Additionally, Yang Feng could still return to the Battle Demon Sect once defeated. However, once they were defeated, they will be expelled from the Fuso Subcontinent and be reduced to stray dogs and rogue cultivators without a foundation.

Nakajo Tsuki Sakura smiled sweetly and uttered: “Let’s make a compromise. You’ll send three people below the Moonlight Warlock each. Each person may only fight once. The side who wins two matches out of three is the victor. What do you think, Your Majesty Yang Feng?”

Yang Feng clapped his hands and said with a broad smile: “Okay! Let’s do it this way!”

Minami Keikaku nodded his head, a gloomy expression on his face.

Higashi Ajime forced a smile and uttered: “Good idea!”

Yang Feng glanced at Hokko Yusei and sneered: “Hokko Yusei, this is a unanimous decision. If you disagree, you’ll be falling out with all of us!”

Hokko Yusei’s face was ashen. He naturally knew that this format was very beneficial to Yang Feng. With his terrifying fighting strength, Yang Feng was guaranteed to wen a match. Hokko Yusei had to win the other two matches to be victorious.

From the gazes gathered on him, Hokko Yusei could tell that he has been abandoned by the other two heads of state. He said while stressing each syllable: “Fine! I agree!”
