CHAPTER 861: CHAPTER 882: HEAVENLY PIT ARENA

Under Lin Zifeng’s aggressive tone, Long Zaitian’s old face slightly stiffened.

His thick sword-like eyebrows slightly knitted together, he smiled and said, "Kid, you should be filled with confidence. This is just a small trial. The living will always be strong, the dead, just those weaklings unworthy of sympathy. If you want to grow strong, you must have a ruthless heart."

"A ruthless heart? Like that guy earlier?" Lin Zifeng sneered and said, "If so, the day I get beaten to death, will the outcome be the same as that guy?"

Lin Zifeng’s aura surged; he showed no fear toward Long Zaitian. In his eyes, even if it were the king himself, he’d still offend them today!

Long Zaitian gave him a deep look.

After pondering for a moment, his sharp tiger eyes fixed on Lin Zifeng for a few seconds, then he burst into laughter, vigorously patted Lin Zifeng on the shoulder and leaned closer to his ear with an awkward smile, "Hey, hey, I said you rascal, give me some face, huh? There are so many old folks standing here, do you want to see me make a fool of myself? I’m not young anymore. It’s not fair to play like this."

It could be seen that Long Zaitian seemed very friendly toward Lin Zifeng’s attitude.

What really made Long Zaitian fearful was the legendary figure behind Lin Zifeng, the Dark Angel!

The one under the protection of the Dark Angel, if you piss him off, you wouldn’t even know how you died.

"Haha—Master Long, I was too impulsive just now. If I have offended you, I hope you can forgive me. I, Lin Zifeng, apologize to Master Long here first."

Lin Zifeng’s sudden 180-degree turn immediately brought a light to Long Zaitian’s old face, causing him to laugh uproariously, even the old guys behind him were confused by this scene.

It’s indeed a rare thing to have a potential junior like Lin Zifeng.

It’s not to the point of being this amused, right?

Several Tang Yi elders secretly despised in their hearts.

"This must be the Death God of the Heavenly Gate k-9 from back in the day!"

At this moment, two elders with shiny faces walked up smiling.

The leader of the Ability Society also came up, stroking his beard with a smile.

The group looked at Lin Zifeng as if they were starving, but their eyes were filled with deep envy. To have such a good son and have the Dark Angel behind him, who wouldn’t want that?

"Uh, heh heh, juniors like me are just from a normal mercenary background, undeserving of the title of master. Please just call me Lin Zifeng, that feels more comfortable to me." Lin Zifeng bowed and smiled.

Though smiling on the face, his heart was twitching!

"Haha, Death God, you are truly too modest. Since everyone addresses you as master, surely there’s a reason."

A white-clad elder waved his hand, indicating that Lin Zifeng need not humble himself further.

Since they all said so, Lin Zifeng wasn’t foolish enough to refute them. Anyway, if they say he is, then so be it, even if they say he’s their wild father, Lin Zifeng has no objection—

"Haha... truly young and promising, even the king of peers from our Ability Society, Long Tianya, was injured by you. If not for Death God’s mercy, Tianya would probably be a heap of graves by now."

The leader of the Ability Society walked up with a smiling face.

His words were obviously a deliberate reminder to Lin Zifeng that they still remembered the matter of him injuring Long Tianya.

"Mercy? Why should I show mercy? When dealing with discordant people, why should I show mercy? That day when I beat him, I didn’t hold back at all." Lin Zifeng said seriously.

"...Hehe."

The leader of the Ability Society’s face stiffened, and the well-prepared words were stuck in his mouth. He could only manage a dry laugh without saying anything further.

Thinking to himself, this little bastard really doesn’t know what’s good for him. I was giving you a way out, and you got more aggressive?

"Since everyone has already met this young Death God, should we next look at the legendary figure ranked first on the Mountain and River List, Zhan Long?"

To resolve the awkward atmosphere, an elder quickly suggested.

"Hmm, makes sense. This guy has disappeared for so many years and finally returns. This time, we all came for him!"

"Haha—the Mountain and River List’s number one king, dominating the list for nearly a decade. The might of eliminating a family back in the day by carrying a coffin, we still remember it clearly!"

...

As they chatted about the number one person on the Mountain and River List.

Lin Zifeng also became interested. After greeting Long Zaitian, Lin Zifeng quickly snuck away.

Scheming against these old foxes was not Lin Zifeng’s strong suit.

Long Yunfei was pulled away by his grandfather, leaving only Lin Zifeng wandering around the underground passage.

Everyone says Zhan Long, the number one on the Mountain and River List, is amazing, but no one could clearly say how amazing he actually is.

There were many rumors. A few years ago, Zhan Long destroyed a small family while carrying a coffin for a woman. Since then, he carried a coffin alone gradually far away, and no one knew what he had been doing all these years, nor did they know how powerful this former king is upon his return.

After passing through several larger passages, Lin Zifeng finally found the arena set for today’s bout.

Upon entering, the entire arena was simply a big pit!!!

"The arena is the Heavenly Pit!"

Lin Zifeng was shocked.

What appeared before his eyes was a structure similar in style to an ancient Roman arena.

The entire basement structure was enveloped by the massive, abyss-like pit in the middle.

The pit was massive! It could accommodate over a thousand people. Lin Zifeng estimated that the pit was a hundred meters wide and several dozens of meters high!

This pit was completely dug by manpower. What a grand effort it must have taken.

Lin Zifeng pondered in his heart, and looking around, the pit was crowded with hundreds of people.

Fang Yizheng was already on top of the pit arena sometime earlier, meditating for quite some time, saying nothing, like a piece of wood.

Lin Zifeng casually found an empty seat and sat down.

"Senior brother, do you think the legendary figure from the Mountain and River List will really appear? He’s been gone for so many years. Could he still be alive?"

"I don’t know. Since the Martial Arts Alliance dared to release such news, it must be true. They have no reason to lie to us. On the contrary, I’m also very curious about Zhan Long. Barely thirty and reaching such a level, who could challenge him in the future?"

"Yeah, yeah, I’ve heard that not only has Zhan Long returned this time, but the perpetual second place Chen Bubai has also returned. It’s said that his return provoked Zhan Long back. He wants the top spot on the Mountain and River List. It’s a bit questionable, but a duel between the two is still worth watching."

"Yeah, I wonder if besides the top talents on the Mountain and River List, there are other peers who have risen."

Listening to the three martial artist youths beside him discussing today’s appearances, Lin Zifeng also became interested.
