Chapter 856: Home with a Virtuous Wife

"My heart aches, my liver aches, I can't stand it! Who will go to Earth and eliminate that devil? He's too arrogant; look at him swaggering as if he owns the sky. He's just one devil; what's so great about capturing a group of low-level Golden Body realm cultivators? Send a Golden Body Great Perfection expert to cripple him, make him weep uncontrollably, and kneel in space to beg for forgiveness. Anything less won't appease public anger!"

Some hot-tempered individuals were truly fuming, stamping their feet in anger. Seeing Chu Feng provoke various races like this made their blood boil and smoke rise from their orifices.

This was mainly because, in their eyes, the great devil Chu Feng was a bully and a scoundrel. He had shamelessly acted as a human trafficker, selling their relatives and friends. They had originally thought he was outdated, finally unable to keep up with the pace of the era's geniuses. They never expected that he wasn't just keeping up with the "Great Leap Forward" but had become even more brutal.

After the initial confrontation, that devil hoisted his banner and showcased his so-called "Chu Family Shop" on the Primal Beast Platform. He also specifically wrote: "A mountain is famous not for its height but for the immortals it houses; a shop is effective not for its size but for its unique specialties."

This was truly intolerable, utterly outrageous! Didn't they see? He had strung those two dozen geniuses together like candied hawthorns, or like a string of old sparrows. They were casually bound into a large cluster, and these were cosmic-level geniuses! He had arranged them in various poses for photos, filling his Chu Family Shop with their images. This human trafficker had reverted to his old ways, intending to sell people and shamelessly extort high prices!

"Everyone, I'm doing this out of necessity. The Great Dream Pure Land invited me to marry my child's mother, Qin Luoyin, but they didn't provide travel expenses. As you know, my shop is small, barely breaking even and just getting by. So this time, I'm forced to sell some local specialties to raise travel funds. This is to pay those scoundrels and bloodsuckers from the Heavenly Wormhole Company to open a wormhole for me to cross the starry sky and go to the wedding. Therefore, those with money, please support with funds; those without, please support with your presence. Your help is greatly appreciated. As the saying goes, 'Within the four seas, all men are brothers.' So, my brothers, please come and support me. The Chu Family Shop is reopening after a year, wishing everyone great fortune!"

Chu Feng's nonsense infuriated all parties, making them want to eliminate him immediately. Especially the relatives of the captured geniuses, whose hearts were truly bleeding.

Everyone knew how sinister the devil Chu was. In the past, when he sold divine sons and saintesses from the Contemplation and Nourishing Radiance realms, he already demanded exorbitant prices, causing various races to suffer financially and endure painful extortion.

Now, their most powerful Golden Body realm geniuses were captured, practically making them see black. That devil Chu cursed the Heavenly Wormhole Company as vampires, but he would undoubtedly be a hundred times more hateful than any vampire. This time, he would be absolutely lethal, certainly making various races bleed profusely.

"I say, everyone, you truly have hearts of stone, harder than rocks in a latrine. Will you just stand by and watch your clan's young talents be beheaded? As the saying goes, money is merely external; what good is having so much? The most precious thing in this world is life."

Chu Feng shook his head and sighed. Then, facing the live broadcast to the entire universe, he directly picked up a Golden Body realm genius, looked at his pale face, and said, "My friend, have we met? I seem to recall you being ranked among the top hundred geniuses in the universe. Why did you rush over here to be sold by me? You should know, being sold carries risks; one must be cautious when entering this market. This is a bloody pit! Don't you see, your grandparents don't care, your uncles don't love you; no one wants to redeem you. Oh, by the way, before this, I think I heard you cursing the most, didn't I? You kept mocking me, saying I wasn't worthy of using that 'How Lonely is Invincibility' golden account, and claiming you could crush me with one hand and were more arrogant than anyone. Haven't you heard that the beam that sticks out rots first? With no one to redeem you, it seems you'll be the first to rot!"

As Chu Feng finished speaking, he raised his cleaver in his shop and directly chopped the person. The beast's head tumbled; this individual had transformed into his true form, a massive, ferocious beast with blood energy like smoke, dense scales, and a very menacing appearance, somewhat resembling a Tao Tie.

Across the starry sky, various regions were shocked. The devil Chu had just been speaking so politely, and now he was directly beheading someone; he was truly too brutal.

Upon witnessing this scene, the elders of the Black-Scaled Tao Tie clan were so heartbroken they almost fainted. Their vision blurred, their mouths tasted of blood, and they vomited profusely.

"My prodigy, ahhh... he just died like that, killed by someone! He was a Golden Body-level expert, a person of great destiny, yet he died prematurely! Devil King Chu, what madness is this? Why did you kill him without waiting for me to redeem him? I swear to be your sworn enemy; I will surely kill your living soul!"

The elder of that clan roared in fury, clenching his teeth so hard they nearly broke. His heart was bleeding; he couldn't bear it.

"Can you blame me? I've been shouting about this for a long time, and no one bought him. I thought this 'local specialty' was of such poor quality that no one wanted it. So, I had no choice but to kill him for meat. Later, I'll invite a bunch of brothers to eat Tao Tie hotpot. A Golden Body-level quasi-divine beast, I imagine it tastes delicious; I haven't had much of it before."

It would have been better if Chu Feng hadn't explained; his explanation only further incited public outrage, making everyone want to spit him to death.

"What's all the fuss about? The Chu Family Shop has always operated this way: guaranteed credibility, resolutely disposing of poor-quality goods, never selling fakes, honest dealings with everyone, quality first! Alright, let's continue selling. Does anyone want these remaining items? If not, they'll all be treated as fakes and disposed of. This shop would rather take a loss than pass off inferior goods as superior."

As soon as these words were uttered, all affected parties wanted to curse him, but not a single one dared. Instead, they all scrambled to make offers, fearing their clan's geniuses would be disposed of as defective goods.

A crowd eagerly and actively signed up, vying to redeem the elites of their respective clans, terrified that the great devil Chu Feng would chop them up.

Everyone understood, and observers also realized, that this was the shameless human trafficker's tactic: deliberately chopping one person to make the remaining "local specialties" sell incredibly well!

Now he didn't need to say much; which clan dared not to buy? They were all more eager than the last, and he didn't even need to keep shouting.

"One point I must emphasize: don't mention cosmic currency or ordinary spiritual medicines. I am only interested in quasi-saint level elixirs. Of course, if you offer me divine medicine, I will certainly not decline or refuse; I welcome and thank you for it."

Only Chu Feng could say such things without batting an eyelid. He extorted and blackmailed relentlessly, making every race bleed profusely.

Indeed, everyone's faces turned green. A year ago, he only demanded Six Paths Reincarnation Pills for Golden Body cultivation, but now he was asking for quasi-saint elixirs—a truly exorbitant price that most people simply couldn't afford.

However, there was no choice. If they didn't use elixirs to redeem their people, their clan's geniuses would die.

"Clearance sale! Don't miss out!" Chu Feng yelled, brandishing a large cleaver, ready to liquidate his stock.

As a result, the various clans acted decisively, immediately agreeing to his demands. They contacted him secretly and offered prices that satisfied Chu Feng.

"Rest assured, once the quasi-saint elixirs arrive, I guarantee immediate delivery of your 'local specialties.' This is a promise of credibility from your trustworthy Chu Family Shop!"

Listening to Chu Feng gloat, everyone wanted to smash him to death!

"Who can go kill him? I refuse to believe it! If a Golden Body Great Perfection expert isn't his match, then send a few more people! We'll make sure to blow him up!" Some people were utterly indignant.

Witnessing this scene today, many geniuses across the universe, at least hundreds of divine sons and saintesses, turned ashen. They had all experienced being sold themselves.

At this point, Chu Feng used his golden account to display the Chu Family Shop, feeling quite pleased with himself. He said, "Everyone, don't be angry. You might feel a bit depressed about being captured by me now, but in ten years, in a hundred years, you will be proud of this!"

As soon as these words were uttered, the depths of the starry sea erupted. This devil Chu was truly detestable; he was trafficking people and still being so shameless, provoking all races.

"Everyone, allow me to explain," said the old donkey from the great demons of Kunlun Mountain.

He perked up his long ears, baring his large front teeth, and said, "Listen to me. In a few more years, if you haven't been sold by Chu Feng, you'll be too embarrassed to go out; you won't deserve to be called a genius. Years from now, you'll find that only those who have been noticed and sold by 'Feng' are true geniuses!"

"What the hell? How dare you speak like that, donkey? Is that how you interpret things?"

"Damn it, that's absolutely shameless!"

A group of people raged.

However, Chu Feng remained unperturbed, looking as if that was precisely the case. He nodded at the old donkey, indicating that he had spoken well.

"Oh, I'm so angry, I could die! This is the peak of shamelessness. Only those sold by you are geniuses, and they should be proud? Devil Chu, why don't you just die!"

"Too shameless! Devil Chu is even more detestable than a year ago; he should be publicly executed!"

Chu Feng smiled and said, "I've decided. I'm about to embark on a long journey, traveling throughout the universe. I believe the cosmic sea must be full of my friends—the divine sons and saintesses I once sold. Prepare yourselves for my arrival. If I pass through your galaxy, I will visit you."

The crowd was furious; this was rubbing salt in their wounds.

Then, many people started clamoring.

"Chu Feng, you great devil, as long as you dare to show yourself, we will definitely eliminate you!"

In fact, some old crones from the Great Dream Pure Land also couldn't stand it. They felt Chu Feng was deliberately stirring up trouble. They unanimously believed that Qin Luoyin had originally used him as a target, sending people to kill him, but he had ended up exploiting the situation.

"Chu Feng, aren't you coming to the Great Dream Pure Land? We're waiting for you. Let's see if you dare to come!" people from the Great Dream Pure Land sneered.

"Don't rush, I'll set off as soon as I've collected my payments!" Chu Feng said.

Two days later, the elixirs from various clans arrived. Super wormholes were opened, through which the ransom Chu Feng demanded was sent.

"These are all elixirs required by quasi-saints, such as Soul-Melting Powder and Body Tempering Agents—none of them are ordinary items. We've struck gold!" exclaimed the Black Ox.

The old donkey was even more direct, facing the starry sky and addressing the various clans, saying, "Goddess Qin Luoyin is indeed virtuous. She hasn't even married into the family yet, and she's already thinking of Chu Feng, sending vast amounts of 'local specialties' for him to sell to subsidize the household."

All parties could no longer bear to listen, severely angered by the donkey.

Those in the Great Dream Pure Land particularly reprimanded and cursed the old donkey.

"You donkey, shut your mouth!"

"Hmph, your Grandpa Donkey is speaking the truth! You've all been swindled by Chu Feng and Qin Luoyin, this husband-and-wife duo. They clearly teamed up to traffic you, and you rushed in like moths to a flame, actively seeking to be sold!" The old donkey shook his head playfully.

Finally, he concluded, "This is a classic case of having a virtuous wife who is completely subsidizing Chu Feng, already looking after the family before even marrying in."

Many were exasperated by him, especially those from the Great Dream Pure Land, who no longer wished to engage with him. They turned to question Chu Feng instead.

"Devil Chu, do you dare to come to the depths of the starry sky? Do you dare to step foot into my Great Dream Pure Land? We didn't give you a golden invitation back then, and today we still say, you are not qualified!"

Someone from the Great Dream Pure Land issued a challenge, provoking Chu Feng, hoping to lure him into the starry sky to deal with him.

Chu Feng responded without hesitation, saying, "Wait and see, your Supreme Sect Master is coming. Prepare the bridal chamber!"

Then, he actually called the Heavenly Wormhole Company, which opened a super wormhole. It wasn't long before he appeared outside the Great Dream Pure Land.

"Your Supreme Sect Master has arrived! Why are you not kneeling to welcome me, Chu?" Chu Feng shouted.

In the Great Dream Pure Land, everyone was stunned. Did this kid really dare to come?

At the same time, evolutionary practitioners from various races across the universe were shocked. Chu Feng had actually left Earth and brazenly stepped into the starry sky?

"Let's go to the Great Dream Pure Land! I want to see how he manages to marry!"

"Has he gone mad? This devil is too bold! He's really outside the Great Dream Pure Land. Is he truly coming for Goddess Qin?"

Evolutionary practitioners from various regions were alarmed, and many immediately set off, rushing towards the Great Dream Pure Land to see what would unfold.

The unstable updates over the past two days were due to my attendance at an event in Changsha. For someone without a draft, it's been quite unfortunate. Although it's very late now, I finally managed to finish writing the second chapter.
