Chapter 505: Marriage Agreement

Fangzhang Island was vast, with misty, flowing light that dyed the nearby sea surface in vibrant colors. The surrounding spiritual energy churned, making it quite extraordinary.

On the island, mountains were vaguely visible, enveloped in beautiful, steaming mist and haze. Even the sky was covered by brilliant halos, giving the entire island a hazy appearance.

A large ship slowly and calmly sailed into the waters of Fangzhang Island. Chu Feng and his companions had arrived.

Fangzhang Immortal Island, like Penglai, is a secret realm that materialized in Earth's main space with the world's revival.

On the large ship, Zhan He focused on steering, injecting energy, no longer daring to escape.

Chu Feng was very relaxed. In front of him was a jade table with several small dishes and a pot of wine. He faced the sea breeze, gazing at the azure sea and the immortal island, occasionally taking a small sip of wine.

Zi Luan was humming Earth songs, looking slightly wronged, like a punching bag. Accustomed to being pampered, she had never been a maid before, now pouring wine and singing.

On the deck, Saintess Li Feng stood gracefully, tall and slender, about 180 cm. Her figure was curvaceous and elegant. She was currently a reserve maid, occasionally stepping forward to pour wine.

As for Yuan Mo, he lay on the deck, his injuries worsened because Chu Feng had just given him another beating.

The reason was simple: the other three were steering, singing, and pouring wine, but Yuan Mo remained unyielding and disobedient in various ways.

Chu Feng's response was direct: a beating. The injuries of the dignified Demon Son, which had just begun to heal, flared up again, leaving him spitting blood from his nose and mouth, his face bruised and purple.

Seeing this, Zhan He, Zi Luan, and Li Feng were extremely cooperative. No one dared to defy him, behaving like loyal guards and maids.

Yet, Chu Feng was still smug, declaring, "I conquer people with virtue!"

Zhan He, Zi Luan, and Li Feng wanted to curse him, but could only do so internally. They thought, "This is because of your demonic might, isn't it? How can you even say such a thing? You're too thick-skinned."

Yuan Mo cursed him again. Even lying there, he was unconvinced, saying, "Conquer people with virtue? You lack virtue!"

"Li Feng, get the halberd and hit him!" Chu Feng commanded.

Li Feng's eyebrows twitched slightly, but she eventually acted. She picked up the halberd and indiscriminately hammered Yuan Mo with the shaft. As a result, Yuan Mo was miserable again; his bones, which had just been reset, became dislocated once more.

Yuan Mo shouted, "Chu the Demon, I won't submit even if you kill me! I am a Demon Son. Even if I can't defeat you after my injuries heal, I won't be much weaker. How can I be your servant?!"

Chu Feng took the halberd from Li Feng and aimed the blade directly at Yuan Mo's neck, about to bring it down.

"Stop! What are you doing?!" Yuan Mo cried out.

Chu Feng replied, "I'll chop off your head and use it to fish for flood dragons. I hear there are some in this area, and I haven't eaten them in a long time. Today, I'll catch one!"

"No!" Yuan Mo was indeed tough and not particularly afraid of death, but being tormented like this terrified him. He wouldn't die immediately after his head was chopped off, and the thought of being used as bait, thrown into the sea to feed sea beasts, was too horrific and sent shivers down his spine.

Finally, Yuan Mo surrendered and negotiated terms with Chu Feng: he could help him fight but would not be a servant.

Chu Feng nodded and then inserted some dark magnetic needles into his body to prevent his escape, warning him that if he betrayed him, the needles would explode, and he would bear the consequences.

Outside the domain, many people were watching Chu Feng, all with strange expressions. This guy was truly lawless and free, taking divine sons as attendants and having saintesses serve tea and pour water. He was simply... doing whatever he pleased, making people envious, jealous, and hateful!

"Brother Chu, hurry up and sell more divine sons and saintesses! This time we're well prepared and guarantee you a high price. Oh, by the way, has that Zi Luan next to you been sold yet? If not, you might consider selling her to me!"

"I want to buy the supermodel-grade Saintess Li Feng!"

"I want to buy Yuan Mo! I'll beat him every day after I buy him!"

A group of buyers was very enthusiastic.

"Wait a moment. Later, I plan to open a small shop. I've already thought of the name: 'Chu's Little Shop.' It will have everything, including divine sons, saintesses, and demon sons, all for sale. Additionally, there will be a bounty hunter service. For example, if you dislike any divine son or saintess on Earth, you can place an order, and I'll help you deal with them. The condition is that they must also be my enemies; otherwise, I won't take orders without reason. I conquer people with virtue!"

"'Conquer people with virtue,' my foot!"

"'Conquer people with virtue,' what utter nonsense!"

"Oh, and there will still be beating sessions. For example, if anyone wants to see me beat Yuan Mo again, you can contact me, and I guarantee another session for him. Also, those who want to beat Zhan He, Li Feng, or Zi Luan can sign up and name their price; it's all within the scope of my business."

Yuan Mo, Zhan He, Li Feng, and Zi Luan were almost fuming, but none dared to speak out. It was simply outrageous!

"Now, the four of you don't worry," Chu Feng said. "If you behave well, I might not accept those orders and do fewer transactions. However, if you secretly defy me or try to appease me with excuses, then there's nothing to discuss. I'll first open a beating session and then sell you all!"

He then added, "At the same time, my little shop will occasionally host concerts. For instance, I can invite Zi Luan and Li Feng to perform with all their hearts. And, of course, if your price is right, I can even invite celebrity-level figures, like Lan Shi, to give an a cappella performance for everyone."

This was indeed a full-service shop. Though not overly complex, it had one common theme: everything revolved around divine sons and saintesses.

Everyone was stunned. Hearing him say he could even invite Lan Shi, they immediately suspected he might be planning something sinister against her.

Immediately, many howled, clamoring to place orders. Some even shouted that they wanted to buy the rising new star, Lan Shi.

Finally, Chu Feng added, "Hmm, I also sell famous people's personal garments here. Limited quantity, highest bidder takes all."

He was dissatisfied. Two days had passed, and Lan Shi still hadn't contacted him. He thought it might be better to just auction off her underwear directly; he estimated its value would be astonishing.

"Chu Feng!" Sure enough, his light-brain flashed. Lan Shi contacted him immediately, secretly negotiating to get back her long dress and a few pieces of personal garments.

"My Chu's Little Shop is about to open. How about you come over first to support me and give a casual concert?"

"Impossible!"

"Then I'll sell your personal garments. Speaking of which, the material is really good. It's made of star silkworm thread, isn't it? Impervious to water and fire, impenetrable by blades and spears, and soft and comfortable to touch. This item is indeed a treasure; I imagine it will fetch a good price."

"Don't touch my things!" Lan Shi almost shrieked, scolding him in a low voice. Even though they were fifteen thousand li apart, she still felt uncomfortable all over, goosebumps rising on her skin.

"Halt, visitors."

Just then, someone on Fangzhang Island spoke up, as the large ship was too close to the island, about to dock.

Chu Feng rose and looked ahead. Before he could speak, the people opposite recognized him, immediately showing surprised expressions.

"Brother Chu, why are you here?" Someone greeted him, while others left to report inside the island. This immediately surprised Chu Feng. Were they treating him with such importance because of his fearsome reputation?

However, if his guess was correct, there would be old monsters on Fangzhang and Penglai islands who wouldn't fear an Evolutionist at his carefree level. Daring to land on the island would surely be dangerous.

"Chu Feng!" At this moment, Lan Shi was still contacting him via his light-brain.

"Come on, Fairy Lan. Let's pick a beautiful time and place, under the flowers and moon, and chat by candlelight." Chu Feng casually replied, then turned off his light-brain. He wanted to see what was going on with Fangzhang Island.

"Last time, didn't you say that the little princess of Fangzhang Immortal Island was smitten with me? Well, here I am," Chu Feng said casually.

"Brother Chu is joking," the person replied. "Our little princess is about to get married; such jokes cannot be made."

"Ah, how heartbreaking. I was all prepared to come and marry her, but it turns out I'm not the groom. How can I bear this?" As he spoke, he took out a token and showed it to the people on the island. It was the very token given to him by the people of Fangzhang Island, allowing him to land on the island with it in the future.

His stance immediately put the islanders on high alert. They became very serious, and several people began to explain the situation, one after another.

What was going on? Chu Feng realized there was something afoot. Why were they so concerned? He had only been casually teasing; he had no intention of snatching a bride.

Even Yuan Mo, who was so wild and not particularly perceptive, sensed that the expressions of the people on Fangzhang Island were flickering, indicating something was amiss.

Inside the island, a middle-aged man received the report and immediately frowned. He was one of the vice island masters, named Li Kai, responsible for daily affairs during the period when the old monsters were secluded and focused on cultivation.

He said seriously, "He actually came knocking! However, Princess Qingqi cannot marry him now. That important figure on the starry road has taken a liking to Qingqi. In any case, this connection must not be broken. You must understand, this is a distinguished person who usually cultivates on the Celestial God Star, with extraordinary status. Ordinary people wouldn't even know how to get there, let alone approach the Celestial God Star. That's one of the top ten powers!"

"But our original plan was to marry Qingqi to Chu Feng," an old woman said, looking emaciated but vigorous. "Now that he's here, are we just going to send him away? That would be a huge waste! We cannot let him go. We are 80% certain he possesses the Daoist Breathing Technique!"

The middle-aged man, Li Kai, said, "Indeed, we certainly can't let him go. He's finally at Fangzhang Island; we must find a way to keep him. But he's always been alert and might not even come ashore. While you and I can suppress him, we cannot leave the island."

"How about we let Qingqi handle him?" the old woman suggested. "She can feign compliance, offer false flattery, and then trick him into entering the island."

"No, Qingqi's personality isn't suitable," Li Kai objected. "Moreover, if that distinguished person on the starry road were to find out about this, they would likely be displeased. Qingqi must marry him without incident; establishing a connection with one of the top ten powers is paramount. As for Chu Feng, we'll think of another way. By the way, are there any other eligible women on the island, with outstanding beauty and high status?"

The old woman replied, "There are no eligible women of high status, but there are suitable beautiful ones, such as Ruo Lan, Princess Qingqi's maid. She is very young and beautiful, hardly two points less attractive than Qingqi."

"Good," Li Kai said. "Let's say Ruo Lan is another daughter of the island master. If that Demon King Chu is truly interested, we'll let Ruo Lan marry him."

He was one of the vice island masters, holding considerable power.

"Excellent. Let's stabilize him first."

"Right, we absolutely cannot displease that distinguished person on the starry road. The top priority is to establish a connection with one of the top ten powers!"

"We certainly cannot miss out on Chu Feng. If he possesses the Daoist Breathing Technique, it could change everything. It's what we need most, and we must acquire it!"

"There's no mistake. Two days ago, Huang Sheng and Wei Lan of the Xilin race were defeated. Chu Feng used the Carefree Slash Visualization, which is definitely related to this breathing technique. Otherwise, how could he be so strong? He's almost comparable to the heirs of those invincible races!"

Outside the island, Chu Feng unexpectedly received news that the Island Master of Fangzhang greatly admired him and had a beloved daughter, his cherished jewel, who had reached marriageable age and whom he wished to betroth to Chu Feng.

Chu Feng's face showed a strange expression. He had only spoken casually, so why were the people of Fangzhang Island taking it so seriously and acting so formally? Something unusual was definitely going on!

However, the news received by various individuals on the island was not synchronized, leading to different reactions.

A very beautiful maid walked over gracefully, quite arrogantly, and said, "You're Chu Feng, right? I advise you to give up. How could my Princess Qingqi possibly fancy you? Leave quickly and don't disturb her marriage!" Her face was full of disgust.

Chu Feng originally had no other intentions, but being treated so disrespectfully, he immediately glared sideways and said, "Didn't your Penglai Island invite me, saying your Princess Qingqi was interested in me? Why are you going back on your word now?"

"Don't speak nonsense! My Princess Qingqi already has someone she likes," the maid snapped, but with a hint of panic.

Soon, several more people appeared on the island. One young man, smiling, said, "You're Chu Feng, right? My master has taken a liking to Princess Qingqi. This has nothing to do with you, so get lost!"

This was an undeniable, blatant provocation, full of strong hostility.

Chu Feng's face darkened. Was there really something going on here? It originally had nothing to do with him, but now, being met with such malice, a fire immediately ignited in his heart.

"Who is your master?!" he demanded.

The young man provoked him again, saying, "My master is beyond words, residing in one of the top ten star worlds. You're not worthy to know. Go back where you came from. Don't think you're so great; compared to the top ten powers, you're just a barbarian!"

"Go, kill him for me," Chu Feng ordered Zhan He, Li Feng, and Zi Luan.

The three stepped forward and charged towards the island.

A light barrier rose, with flickering domain runes. The three were forced back; Fangzhang Island's defenses were extraordinary.

"Well, I'll tell you the truth," the young man secretly transmitted, triumphantly provoking him repeatedly. "My master knew Fangzhang Island wished to marry their daughter to you, so he intervened. What can you do about it?"

Clearly, he wanted to enrage Chu Feng and force him onto the island.

"You, a mere subordinate, dare to speak to me like that!" Chu Feng's expression turned cold.

"Who said I'm a subordinate? On a certain star, I am also a Saint Son!" The young man was furious, feeling insulted. He added, "My master comes from one of the top ten powers, naturally deserving of reverence. How dare you insult me like this!"

"Insult you? I'll crush you!" Chu Feng moved. Even though he knew the opponent was prepared, likely with a hidden trump card, intentionally provoking him into a dangerous situation, he didn't care much. At his current level, he could advance or retreat as he pleased.

As expected, this place was not simple. Five small flags rose from the ground, all black and shimmering, forged from dark magnetic material, even containing a bit of divine magnet.

Each flag was only about a meter long, but they now shook violently, emitting countless runes, instantly covering the area. They then disappeared, forming a killing field.

"Anti-Five Elements Flags?" Chu Feng was startled. This was an unconventional domain, an 'anti-five elements' formation, capable of reversing even a 'Domain Suppression Seal.' It was clearly prepared specifically for him.

To think that the opponent was just a subordinate, easily underestimated, yet he produced such a powerful killing array!

*Bang, bang, bang...*

Chu Feng moved, holding a broken copper seal, blocking one black profound light attack after another.

*Whoosh!*

At the same time, he unleashed the tattered scroll, protecting himself and resisting the attacks of the Anti-Five Elements Flags.

Immediately, dozens, even hundreds, of profound lights continuously shot towards Chu Feng, fiercely attacking him, intending to obliterate him there.

Chu Feng's expression was grim. Was this the true power of the top ten? A mere subordinate possessed such a formidable weapon. How was it brought across realms?

"The power of the top ten is beyond your imagination! Die!" the young man sneered, no longer frivolous but serious. He brought out countless magnetic crystals, using them to empower the Anti-Five Elements Flag domain.

Chu Feng protected himself with the tattered scroll and cleared a path with the incomplete bronze seal, attempting to break out. At this moment, he clearly felt the aura in this place becoming chaotic and increasingly dangerous.

With his Fiery Golden Eyes, he meticulously observed the Anti-Five Elements Flags and then quickly began to deduce.

Recently, not only had his evolution been rapid, but his mastery of domains had also been improving. Relatively speaking, his talent in domains seemed to be extraordinarily powerful.

Generally, researching domains was ten times harder than evolution, but he was now able to advance simultaneously, showing just how terrifying his talent in domains was. Otherwise, why would the energy tower on the moon be so astonished, and why would even a heritage tower be quite shocked?

Recently, Chu Feng had clearly felt his domain mastery rise again, reaching the master level. This was also the reason he decided to land on the island and attack.

Now, with his Fiery Golden Eyes, he gazed intently and finally found a way out.

Chu Feng directly broke through, smashing the ground with his bronze seal. The five black flags reappeared as the ground split open. With a sweep of the scroll in his hand, *whoosh, whoosh,* the Anti-Five Elements Flags immediately changed hands, all collected into his scroll.

Chu Feng kicked the stunned young man, whose face was filled with disbelief, flying off the island, making him cough up large mouthfuls of blood. Then, he followed him out with a step, kicked again, causing colossal waves to surge. The man shot into the air, covered in blood, and fell onto the large ship.

"One of the top ten, huh? Tell me about it!" Chu Feng said coldly, stepping on the young man's face and looking down at him.

Beside him, Saintess Zi Luan was trembling with fear, increasingly terrified of the Great Demon King before her.

Yuan Mo also wore a complex expression, feeling that this demon was incredibly formidable and strange!
