Chapter 111: Lord Of Pride
"Brother Li, you are saying Emily is our neighbour from now on?" Lily exclaimed after hearing him.
Li Wei nodded at her with a smile.
"Yes, they are our neighbour's, and the party is day after tomorrow. So, if you want to go shopping, you can go ahead. Also, take XinXin with you after she wakes up," he replied as he started breakfast with everyone.
…
Just as they were having breakfast, a news circulated in Valeria City, shocking its people.
"Hey, did you know someone became a hero from the new world?" a person asked his friend with excitement.
"Yes, of course, I know. It's Bai Feng who got castrated by the idiot middle-aged man," the friend replied with a hint of disdain.
"Shh! Don't talk, the knights from the kingdom came here this morning to announce him being a hero and are protecting him," the person reminded him with fear.
"Tsk, so what? I think he definitely got castrated because he provoked someone he shouldn't," the friend replied, not caring too much.
The conversation like this continued in every corner of the city.
However, people were only shocked a little and didn't care much because soon there would be a hero appearing from their own kingdom.
Because of this, the kingdom only let low-ranking knights attend him while also preparing someone who can help him recover, but it was only to let Bai Feng owe them a favour.
…
As the news reached every corner, it also spread out of the city, arriving in the hands of powerful people from all factions.
However, they didn't care much, as he would not become powerful until he joined a faction from Starfrost or Sorathia world.
But it was different for the seven deadly sin lords who just descended.
When they received the news, they also became shocked and met up with everyone while hiding their figures and faces with some skills.
However, it didn't pose a problem to conserve.
"Pride, are you going to act, or should I do it?" the lord of Gluttony inquired as he continued to eat a four-feet-tall cooked monster.
However, the lord of Pride shook his head.
"Gluttony, remember, humans like to scheme too much. If not, the news wouldn't have reached us so easily," he replied, his voice sounding cold.
Every race already knew they are descending and will do their best to hide and protect the heroes from them.
But they deliberately spread the news in just a few ten minutes, informing every world about this.
"Humph, damn humans, just wait. I will kill them all this time," the lord of Wrath snorted coldly, but he didn't lose in anger.
They all just descended, and their levels were low, only enough to control the small towns.
The races all over the world also knew this and were using Bai Feng as bait to catch them.
However, Bai Feng, who was happy getting recovered, didn't know of the danger looming over his head.
"So should we just let them provoke us?" the lord of Greed inquired with an irritated voice.
"Of course not. We should teach them a lesson," Pride replied with a cold tone and continued.
"You all don't need to worry about this. He is just a small fry and will die sooner or later. Also, I already made some arrangements," he added.
"Arrangements? Are you talking about the god of destruction cult?" Wrath asked, his voice sounding cold.
"Kek, they are just some tools for us to use. Let's end the discussion here; also we should change the place, or the holy faction might find out about our whereabouts," Pride replied, ending the discussion and disappeared with everyone.
...
Bai Feng, who was unaware of this, was wearing an angry face as he came back to the city with two knights protecting him.
Watching this, people became puzzled.
"Hey, what happened? Do you know the reason why the hero is angry?" someone asked with a whisper.
"You don't know? After getting the protection from the knights, he headed towards the North Plane to find the middle-aged man, but he wasn't able to find him," a person explained and continued.
"The middle-aged man might have heard him becoming a hero and hid himself. Unless the kingdom takes action, he won't be able to get revenge. Because of this, he is pissed off," the person added.
However, his voice was loud, making everyone with high levels hear it.
Bai Feng too was able to hear it, and his face became more uglier.
'Damn all of you, just wait. One day I will show you,' he snorted coldly as he returned to the house gifted by the kingdom.
"Hero Bai Feng, inside the city, we will be protecting you from shadows and won't appear unless you really need our help," the knight beside him informed him.
"I know," Bai Feng nodded with irritation.
He thought he would be able to command them after becoming a hero, but to do that, he has to form a contract with the kingdom, becoming a part of it.
'Fuck you, this is how you treat your hero,' he cursed in his mind, watching the knights disappear silently.
They will only protect him inside the Elmoral Kingdom. If he goes to another one, he has to rely on himself if he doesn't form a contract.
With irritation, he entered the two-story house while deciding not saving anyone from this kingdom.
"Brother Feng, you are back," Zu Tian welcomed him with a smile and was about to hug him but stopped after noticing his irritated face.
"Brother Feng, what happened?" she asked with concern.
"Nothing, I just can't find that idiot, but he is probably hiding somewhere with fear," Bai Feng replied, his expression softening a little.
After he lost his little brother, he thought she would leave him, but she still remained and consoled him.
'Maybe I can have her as my concubine,' he thought when he found Chu Zhi coming towards him with an ugly face.
"Brother Feng, I have inquired about Li Xin," he informed and stopped there, not knowing how to explain further.
Hearing him, Bai Feng became stunned.
"You found about Li Xin, but why is the ugly face? Did something happen to her?" he asked with a frown.
Hearing him Chu Zhi made a difficult face but explained.
"Brother Feng, it's not something happened to her, but I heard she was strolling around the city with a handsome boy, and in the park, they confessed to each other in their arms," he recounted what he heard from others.
Listening to him, the temperature of the room dropped as Bai Feng's expression became cold.
Even if he didn't say who is the boy, he could guess who it is.
"Li Wei, I will kill you!!!" he shouted, gritting his teeth with anger, not caring about the knights who heard him.
"How did he become a hero with this personality?" one knight muttered with a frown, watching him in stealth.
Hearing him, the second knight shook his head.
"Let him do whatever he wants. We are not allowed to interfere unless his life is in danger or he is committing crimes," he replied and continued to watch Bai Feng.
...
Inside villa no.1, Li Wei sneezed suddenly.
'Damn, is that castrated idiot cursing me again?' he cursed in his mind.
"Brother Li, did you catch a cold?" Lily asked with a worried tone, arriving beside him.
"No, I didn't. It's just some idiot might be cursing me," Li Wei replied with a smile, ruffling her hair.
After breakfast, he decided to train for a while before creating the skill because he wanted to have more control over his power to prevent any accidents.
As for Lily and others, they were also here to train, but their thoughts wandered on what kind of dressing they should wear at the party.
Li Xin also woke up and was here with Li Yin after eating breakfast discussing with them.
"Did you guys decide on what to wear? If not, you can look for Aunt Eliza for more ideas; she has a lot of knowledge about designs," Li Wei suggested, watching them still chatting.
"Um, brother, we were planning to do that, but Aunt Eliza will be coming here, so we decided to wait," Li Xin replied, informing him.
They all planned to ask Aunt Eliza, but just as they were about to go out, she got a message from Emily that they would be moving in today and would come to greet them.
Hearing her, Li Wei nodded.
"Then I will focus on creating a skill," he said and moved towards a more empty area to avoid letting them get caught up in accidents.
Elva and others weren't surprised, as he already told them about his class quest.
But they still felt doubt about whether he can create a skill or not.
"Sister Li, you look confident in him," Alice muttered, watching her face with no doubt.
Hearing her, Li Xin smiled sweetly.
"You will know in a minute why I am confident that he can create a skill," she replied and focused her gaze on him.
Others too did the same, wanting to know the process of skill creation.
