Chapter 231 The Giant Baby Who Intentionally Disgusts People, Nightmare Candle King
Zhou Ze and King Longjue were chatting in the starry sky when ripples appeared in the nearby starry sky, and spaceships appeared one after another, with an error of about half a minute between each appearance.
All four spaceships had appeared, and only after all four spaceships had arrived did they collectively open their hatches.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The hatches opened, and a large number of figures flew out from the four spaceships, numbering over a hundred, most of whom were immortal gods.
"What happened?"
"So messy?"
"What happened, King Longjue?"
The four leaders led a large group of people and flew over. The most eye-catching person was a handsome man in a gorgeous white robe who flew at the very front.
This is a breathtakingly beautiful man; even men would be captivated by him. His beauty clearly transcends gender.
He had flowing silver hair, radiant skin, perfect features, and faint mysterious runes on his forehead, adding to his ancient and timeless aura.
Zhou Ze didn't even need to think; this person was none other than the Demon Candle King, who was originally going to cause Luo Feng a lot of trouble in the future—an extreme case of a giant infant.
"Follow me," King Longjue transmitted to Zhou Ze.
The two men went to meet them.
The large group led by the person in charge of the thought process also stopped in the starry sky, and the group of people gathered together in the silent starry sky.
"Apprentice, let me introduce you." King Longjue smiled and pointed to a man with curly hair and greenish skin:
"This is Da Wang, the head of the world's number one bank."
"King Dapan." Zhou Ze bowed respectfully.
He didn't become lax just because he was now a king. After all, it's an act, so he naturally had to act it out properly. Besides, these people were even more ancient than humans on Earth, so it was no big deal to be respectful and pay his respects.
"Apprentice, this time it was due to poor management within my Wulong Star Region, please forgive me," Da Wang said with a smile, seeming very approachable.
King Longjue then introduced Zhou Ze to two kings from the Cosmic Galaxy Bank and the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance.
"As for this one—he is also a legendary genius. When he broke through to immortality, he possessed the strength of a peak marquis. He is none other than the Demon Candle King!" King Longjue's voice became louder, seemingly much more enthusiastic about this Demon Erosion King.
No one else objected to the bestowal of titles, and Zhou Ze understood as well. After all, the father of this giant baby was once a peerless genius comparable to Kodi, appearing only once every tens of millions of epochs, the Venerable Candlelight.
The Fire Venerable became a King-level Immortal God in less than ten thousand years, and a "Cosmic Venerable" in hundreds of thousands of years. Over hundreds of millions of years, his strength must be even more astonishing.
"King of the Demon Candle," Zhou Ze bowed respectfully in return.
Although this guy might have conflicts with his disciple Luo Feng in the future, he'd deal with that later. Right now, he wasn't going to risk making himself uncomfortable, especially in front of this spoiled brat, just to save face.
The Demon Candle King extended his jade-like fingers and gently stroked his chin, scrutinizing Zhou Ze as he looked at him, noticing that Zhou Ze was completely concealed within his armor.
Even its head is no exception; it smiles gently, appearing quite approachable.
"Can't you even face us with your true self?"
as long as you are happy.
Zhou Ze inwardly complained, but outwardly remained polite as he opened the helmet, revealing an ordinary-looking face.
He had considered this before coming here. After all, he was only at the cosmic level. If a powerful being were interested in the face he had been hiding behind his armor, that wouldn't be good.
"That's more like it. A true strongman wouldn't even dare to show his face!" The Demon Candle King's voice was gentle on the surface, like a spring breeze.
"Nobody knows the details of what happened this time."
"I just reviewed the information that the Cosmic Venerable submitted to the Wulong Starfield Management System. It's confirmed that the explosion was ultimately caused by the immortal divine power of flames!"
"But what is the truth?"
The Demon Candle King shook his head slightly and sighed, "Those three insiders are all dead."
Are you kidding me? This sounds like you're deliberately trying to mess with me!
This guy's got a screw loose.
This matter could have been a big deal or a small deal, and as a member of the Primordial Secret Realm of the Virtual Universe Company, I didn't complain about what happened, but now they're holding me responsible. "Demon Candle King." King Longjue laughed loudly, "This matter is very simple. Zhou Ze is a top genius of my Virtual Universe Company, and he ranks very high in the assassination rankings of those alien races. He survived this assassination attempt, so I can explain it to the higher-ups of my Virtual Universe Company."
King Candle glanced indifferently at King Longjue: "King Longjue, we are not reporting to the Virtual Universe Company, but to the five major powers!"
"In this incident, all three internal members died!"
The Demon Candle King's eyes flashed, and he pointed at Luo Feng: "This apprentice claims that an insider assassinated him, but the other three are all dead, so there's no way to verify it. Who knows if he just made it up?"
"He said someone was trying to assassinate him!"
"But!"
"No one can be sure whether this apprentice had planned this all along, instantly killing three insiders and then taking away a large number of cargo units!"
The Demon Candle King said calmly:
"As for the so-called immortal self-destruction of the Flame God, how could a mere cosmic-level nobody possibly survive? Perhaps he obtained a low-grade Flame God Source Crystal from there and wanted to take an adventure here."
"Vulcan Source Crystals are only worth 1 million to 1.5 million points, while this batch of goods is worth nearly 10 million Chaos Units. Even if he only gets a portion of it, it's still a huge profit!"
"Moreover, he has the protection of being a peerless genius, so he's sure no one will investigate him thoroughly—"
"Of course, this is just my speculation. We still need to investigate further to find out the truth. As the leaders of the five major powers in the Wulong Star Region, we naturally have to fulfill our responsibilities regarding the loss of the goods!"
"Not only that, whether there are loopholes within my Wulong Starfield or something else, we must find out the truth. Apprentice, I also believe you are innocent, but this is our duty."
What do you all think?
The three other powerful figures exchanged glances, all understanding that the Candle King was deliberately causing trouble.
"What the Demon King said makes sense," Da Wang nodded slightly.
"Hmm." (A gift to the Rain King)
"We must not let Zhou Ze be wronged," King Yin Ge said calmly.
"Apprentice, is there anything else you want to say?"
The Demon Candle King adopted a businesslike attitude, and on the surface, it seemed that no one could find fault with him.
But Zhou Ze understood that this immature man, unable to defeat the True King, had become completely distorted in his mentality, even though he might know that Zhou Ze was the disciple of his alias "Saint Master," and even though Zhou Ze was only ostensibly a fellow disciple of Luo Feng—
Zhou Ze didn't say much, his expression remained calm, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
"Very well, then you may proceed to the 'Silk Rain Palace' for now. Once we have investigated the matter, we will release you." The Demon Candle King spoke very politely.
Zhou Ze finally understood. This guy just wanted to disgust people. Even if nothing came of it in the end, it was still a way for him to vent his anger.
He must know his public identity. Even if he's a spoiled brat, he's still wary of his disguise, so he always acts like he's doing his job.
