Chapter 449: To the Sidelines
Chapter 449: To the Sidelines
“Oh great, this doesn’t look good to me...” Fang Lin thought inwardly as he continued acting like a newcomer.
As for the Great General and Princess Elissa, both of them looked at Fang Lin as they hissed,
“General Draco, why are you not paying respects to our Hero!”
“Ah, I’m really sorry, Hero!” Fang Lin said as he adopted a star-struck expression in his face. He made himself look awed at the presence of Bai Huangdi as he said,
“I was just amazed by your presence that I was dazed for a second!”
“I get it, I get it...” The armored Bai Huangdi seemed to be not angry with Fang Lin.
One can even detect some hints of delight from Bai Huangdi’s voice after he heard Fang Lin praising him!
“Ok... so Bai Huangdi likes to be praised huh...” Fang Yu thought as he sneaked a peak to the Great General and Princess Elissa.
“I am sure Bai Huangdi will also ask these two to praise him...”
Suddenly, Fang Lin felt a divine sense scanning his whole body.
Fang Lin let out a slight smile as he realized that this divine sense belonged to Bai Huangdi himself.
Bai Huangdi must have been suspicious of Fang Lin, so he decided to inspect his body to see if there was anything weird in him.
Too bad for Bai Huangdi, Fang Lin already had countermeasure for this kind of situations.
While Fang Lin was running earlier, he used the power of the Demonic Unicorn to create an illusion that he, like the other natives of this planet, has no cultivation at all.
With the prowess of his illusions, anyone that will inspect Fang Lin’s body right now will not detect the qi, mana, and even the dantian inside Fang Lin!
What they will only see was a mortal body!
Because of this illusion, what Bai Huangdi saw when he inspected Fang Lin’s body was a mortal body that has not cultivated yet.
This firmly removed Bai Huangdi’s suspicion of Fang Lin, as he started to regard Fang Lin like any other natives of this planet.
“Hero, may I ask why you appeared on this place?” The Great General asked, not daring to make himself sound arrogant.
“Oh, I went here because I have something to do, and I require the assistance of this place.” Bai Huangdi said as he gave an approving nod to the Great General and Princess Elissa.
“The power in your bodies are potent, as expected of the Royalty. Especially you, Crown Prince. I can sense that your power is an aberration even amongst the Royalty.”
“We thank the Hero for such praises...” The Great General said as he began to give Bai Huangdi an excited look. “Hero, if may I ask-”
“You want to fight me, right?” Bai Huangdi said as he tilted his armored head.
“Well, if you want to fight, then come at me right now!” Bai Huangdi seemed to be not offended by what the Great General wanted as he even goaded him now. “What are you waiting for? Aren’t you excited for this?”
“In that case, should we do it here?” The Great General slowly said as he tried to suppress the excitement in his voice.
“Here should be enough.” Bai Huangdi said as he placed his elbow on the table. He then assumed an arm wrestling pose, much to the surprise of Fang Lin.
“Since I am in a rush now, we shall settle this through an arm wrestling match.” Bai Huangdi said as he gave the Great General a taunting look. “But to give you a chance to win, I will only use my pinky finger. You can still use your whole hand.”
This declaration of Bai Huangdi of course did not bode well for the Great General.
“Ridiculous! You think I can’t win against your pinky?” The Great General was close to lashing out to Bai Huangdi, but he managed to hold himself in time. He then let out a sigh as he said,
“If you want it that way, then I shall do it your way.”
To Fang Lin’s amusement, he saw the whole right hand of the Great General grasping the pinky finger of Bai Huangdi.
It was a comical sight, but Fang Lin already knew will happen next.
At the signal of Bai Huangdi, the arm wrestling match started, and it just went according to what Fang Lin expected.
“Why can’t I move your pinky?!” The Great General roared out as his whole body turned red from his strenuous efforts. “It should move even by just a little!”
The muscles of the Great General started to bulge crazily, as if he was using them to their full capacity.
Countless veins could be seen on his right arm, as if he purposefully pumped most of his blood on that arm of his.
But even with all of that effort, Bai Huangdi’s pinky was not pushed back even by a little.
“Time to finish this I guess...” Bai Huangdi muttered as his pinky finger twitched a little.
This twitch may seem weak, but to the Great General, this twitch spelled his defeat.
“Argh!” His whole right arm was forced back by that twitch, as if his arm could not contain the force behind the twitch of that pinky finger.
His whole right arm then crashed into the table, breaking it into two.
“....”
Both the Great General and Princess Elissa could not believe what they saw.
With just a twitch of his pinky, their Hero managed to defeat the strongest of the Royalty!
This is just absurd but also amazing!
“I am sorry for doubting the Hero’s power...” The Great General bowed once more as he started to sound ashamed. “I thought I still have a chance of winning, but it seems like I have been too conceited.”
“Oh its fine...” Bai Huangdi said as traces of amusement could be heard from his voice. “With me here, all of you Royalty will still have time to mature!”
These words of Bai Huangdi elicited a look of hope at Princess Elissa as she realized that their Hero will help them stronger.
She then began to look at him with worship as she angled her body to make it look as beautiful as possible in front of Bai Huangdi.
“......” Fang Lin just stared at what happened blankly, as he realized that this Bai Huangdi just used few words, and he already managed to pick up Princess Elissa.
“Tsk, the privilege of the playboys...” Fang Lin thought sourly as he observed the armor that Bai Huangdi wore.
Upon a closer look, he realized that something was weird with the armor.
“Hmm?” Bai Huangdi, who was enjoying the view given to him by Princess Elissa, suddenly noticed General Draco’s gaze on his armor.
More specifically, on the scratch on the left leg of his armor.
The Great General and Princess Elissa noticed this scratch too, which made them look at it in wonder.
“Oh this?” Bai Huangdi tapped the scratch on his armor as he looked at both the Great General and Princess Elissa. “I got this when I met the Massacre Hero earlier. She was a handful, that I can say.”
“The Massacre Hero?” Both the Great General and Princess Elissa took deep breath as they realized that something big already happened earlier.
Bai Huangdi, seeing the looks on their faces, wave his hands hastily as he said,
“Oh, do not get too excited. We just exchanged some moves, and then we went back on our separate paths.”
“Oh...” Princess Elissa looked disappointed by this, but she and her Big Brother did not pester more details about this encounter.
Bai Huangdi, upon seeing the politeness of the two, let out an appreciative nod as he said,
“Now that I have fully acquainted myself here, I think it is time for me to start my real agenda. Crown Prince, call all the Generals in this place. We will have a meeting later, and I assure you, this meeting will decide the fate of this continent.”
“Roger Hero!” The Great General did not waste any time as he rushed out of the room, probably to inform all the Generals about the said meeting.
As for Fang Lin and Princess Elissa, both of them stayed at the room with Bai Huangdi.
“Hmm...” While all 3 of them were staying at the same room, Bai Huangdi’s armored head was focused entirely on Princess Elissa, who in return sent him some flattering looks. Poor Fang Lin was being ignored at the sidelines, as he could only jealously watch the blatant flirting between the two.
“Princess Elissa...” Bai Huangdi started to speak up a minute after the Great General had disappeared. “How long would it take for your brother to gather all the Generals and start the meeting?”
“With the way that the military works now, it might take around an hour or two.” Princess Elissa replied as a mischievous glint appeared in her eyes. “Why are you asking me that Hero? Do you want to do something... during that time?”
“Yes, yes I want to.” Bai Huangdi said as he removed the head armor, showing his handsome face to Princess Elissa.
Princess Elissa’s sharp intake of breath and the blush on her face just shows how extremely enamored she is to Bai Huangdi right now.
Bai Huangdi’s voice began to turn husky and seductive as he slowly said,
“Since there is still an hour or two left before the meeting, would Princess Elissa... be interested on getting to know me more?”
“Oh yes, I want to.” Princess Elissa purred as she was carried by Bai Huangdi in a princess carry.
“Then to your room we go.” He then left the room with the Princess, leaving Fang Lin alone in the room.
“And then they f**ked. The end.” Fang Lin muttered as traces of jealousy appeared on his face.
“That Bai Huangdi just entered here for about a minute, and yet he’s about to bed a Princess now? Huhuhu, that guy seems to be an expert compared to me!”
Fang Lin then slapped his face as he decided on what to do now.
“Since there is still an hour or two left before the start of the meeting, then maybe I could try breaking through the Fourth Sub-Realm!”
Since Bai Huangdi and Princess Elissa will be busy ‘eating’ each other while the Great General will be occupied on gathering the Generals, Fang Lin realized that this was his chance to make a breakthrough.
Fang Lin left the military encampment until he was a kilometer away from the place. Fang Lin looked around him, and he let out a sigh of relief as he saw that Bai Huangdi did not detect his departure.
But in order to be sure that Bai Huangdi would not feel any of Fang Lin’s breakthrough, Fang Lin decided to hide in his storage.
With all of these preparations in place, Fang Lin started to calm his mind as he attempted his breakthrough.
