“Master, Master, you’re finally back.”

As soon as he returned to the house, Longbetham’s voice sounded. Although Longbetham had created a tool that was worn by Lin Feng at all times, Longbetham’s true form could only obtain information intermittently through some contact methods.

However, messages could not be transmitted in certain places, such as the Big Bang. In such an environment, no matter how advanced the technology, messages could not be transmitted.

“Master, I heard that you have already become a Grand Emperor?”

Longbetham was very thrilled. A Grand Emperor! It did not even dare to imagine that one day, it could actually become the follower of a Grand Emperor. Back then, it had judged that Lin Feng would be hard-pressed to even become an elementary planetary lifeform, let alone a Grand Emperor.

Unexpectedly, Lin Feng’s speed of cultivation along the way stunned Longbetham.

Lin Feng smiled and did not conceal it. He said directly, “I’m still a Venerable and an advanced planetary lifeform, but by relying on my comprehension of Laws, I do have the combat power of a Grand Emperor!”

Actually, Lin Feng did not just have the combat power of a Grand Emperor. Even ordinary Grand Emperors were not as powerful as Lin Feng.

“Haha, I, Longbetham, have really become the follower of a Grand Emperor. This is simply… simply wonderful!”

Longbetham really felt proud. How many people could become the followers of a Grand Emperor, and as mechanical lifeforms at that? There were probably very few.

Some Grand Emperors in the upper district of the Divine Palace did not choose mechanical lifeforms as their followers.

But now, there would be another mechanical lifeform among the followers of Grand Emperors in the upper district of the Divine Palace.

“By the way, Longbetham, on my way back this time, I encountered some upper district disciples. Why do I feel that the way they look at me is a little strange? It’s as if aside from reverence, there’s more fear in it?”

Lin Feng was certain that aside from reverence, there was more of a trace of fear in the gazes of those upper district disciples.

“Fear?”

Longbetham was slightly stunned, but after it thought carefully, its eyes lit up. “Master, I believe I know why they are afraid.”

“Why?”

“The news of Master becoming a Grand Emperor had already arrived.”

“I know that.”

Lin Feng did not even conceal it. He used spatial warp to return directly. This was because he had become a Grand Emperor, and his reputation had spread everywhere during the Big Bang. There was no longer any point in keeping it a secret. He would not be able to keep it secret even if he tried, so he might as well make it public.

In any case, with his current strength, could anyone actually interrogate him?

“Master, did you also kill Grand Emperor Guxi?”

“That’s right. I did kill Grand Emperor Guxi. Is that the only reason?”

“This is most likely the reason. According to the rumors I heard, Grand Emperor Guxi argued with Master a little and Master killed him in a fit of anger. Now, Master’s ruthless reputation has spread throughout the entire upper district of the Divine Palace. Due to our association, even when I go out, no one dares to provoke me anymore. How magnificent!”

Longbetham was enjoying the power, but Lin Feng could only smile helplessly on the inside.

What unparalleled ruthless reputation? Was he that savage?

Lin Feng felt very helpless. He had killed Grand Emperor Guxi over just a slight quarrel? Although that appeared to be the case on the surface, the reason was actually much more complicated.

Originally, Lin Feng had mocked that Grand Emperor Guxi was Grand Emperor Windbag. It was precisely due to this statement that there was no longer any room for reconciliation between Grand Emperor Guxi and Lin Feng.

How dangerous would it be if a Grand Emperor secretly bore a grudge? This was especially the case in an environment as complicated as the Big Bang. Hence, for his own safety, Lin Feng might as well join forces with Grand Emperor Scorpius to kill Grand Emperor Guxi and eliminate future troubles.

However, he did not expect the rumors to spread that he had killed Grand Emperor Guxi just because Grand Emperor Guxi had angered him due to a slight quarrel. Even Lin Feng himself found it unbelievable.

However, this way, Lin Feng’s ruthless reputation naturally spread. Even in the Divine Palace of Bemond, who would dare to provoke him? Who wouldn’t be afraid? If he could kill a Grand Emperor in a fit of anger, he could also kill others in a fit of anger.

“Forget it. Ruthless reputation it is.”

Lin Feng shook his head. It would probably be very difficult for him to reverse everyone’s impression of him.

“By the way, how many Grand Emperors are there in the upper district at the moment?” Lin Feng asked Longbetham.

“Master, I have not obtained the authority yet.”

Lin Feng was a little disappointed. He knew about Longbetham’s authority. In the upper district, every disciple’s follower had the corresponding authority.

Right now, Longbetham only had the most basic authority. It did not know much about the upper district, or even the entire Divine Palace of Bemond. Above that was the authority of the Venerables, which was slightly better than the basic authority.

However, the authority of Grand Emperors was still the best.

The authority of every Grand Emperor’s follower allowed them to know all the information and secrets of the Divine Palace. Hence, some said that Grand Emperors were actually above the category of “disciples”, and could assist the Divine King in managing the entire Divine Palace.

Although Lin Feng was notorious now, and had the combat power of a Grand Emperor, as Divine King Bemond had yet to return, it had not promoted Lin Feng’s authority.

Lin Feng was not in a hurry to promote his authority. He went straight to the cosmos and used his combat body.

The massive combat body was a total of 12 billion kilometers. It was far inferior to a Grand Emperor’s combat body, but countless times stronger than a Venerable’s combat body.

Such a huge commotion immediately attracted the attention of many upper district disciples.

“That’s the Grand Emperor of Annihilation, right?”

“Everyone says that the Grand Emperor of Annihilation has the ability to challenge opponents above his level. I had thought it was just a rumor, but now, it seems to be true. This must be a combat body of over ten billion kilometers, right?”

“Venerable, this is indeed just a Venerable! However, a Venerable with such a powerful combat body is unheard of. No wonder he’s comparable to a Grand Emperor!”

Lin Feng’s use of the combat body also alarmed some Grand Emperors among the disciples of the upper district.

They looked at Lin Feng’s combat body with complicated expressions, but no one said anything. The news about Lin Feng had long spread throughout the upper district of the Divine Palace. Almost everyone knew that another Grand Emperor was born in the Divine Palace.

Of course, Lin Feng did not deploy the combat body to “show off”. It was not easy for him to obtain a new substance that contained Chaotic energy. Now was naturally the time to use this new substance to improve his combat body.

Hence, Lin Feng retrieved the new substance. It was even larger than a star.

“Devour!”

Although this new substance was huge and comparable to a star, forget about one star, even ten stars were nothing in Lin Feng’s eyes. He could devour them at will.

When the new substance appeared, the Grand Emperors of the upper district all had excited looks.

“What a rich Chaotic energy.”

“Grand Emperor of Annihilation gained a lot from the Big Bang.”

“Alas, unfortunately, we gained nothing.”

Many Grand Emperors were very envious of Lin Feng’s gains, but if they were really asked to risk their lives, all of them would probably back down. Some Grand Emperors were willing to take risks, while some were already content with their current state.

After all, not every Grand Emperor was so ambitious as to wish to advance further to become a Divine King.
