Chapter 287: 287: The First Confrontation of a Genius (Third Update)

The Star Sky Divine Teaching has a tremendous influence in the world, yet it has always been divided. Countless believers have been waiting for the appearance of the Holy Son.

Now that the Holy Son has finally appeared, many believers of the Gods Clan are overjoyed.

Even among the War God level Martial Artists, there are many who belong to the Gods Clan. However, unlike ordinary people, they cannot pray at the church every day or attend worship services.

Among the Meteor-stage and Star Realm Experts, there are those who follow the Gods Clan. However, they are no longer as obsessed as ordinary Martial Artists. People at this level have more faith in their own strength. Still, seeing the Holy Son arrive in the Ancient God City attracted many believers to gather around.

Lin Zhen and Zhang Yue stood behind the crowd, watching from a distance.

The hatch of the black ghost opened, and an Eastern man came out first.

This man was around fifty years old, wearing the robe of the Star Sky Divine

Teaching. Both Lin Zhen and Zhang Yue were stunned upon recognizing him: “Allen from the Great Divine Sect!”

Zhang Yue, who was also from Ice City Base City, recognized Allen, but he didn’t expect to see Allen here.

Allen glanced at the crowd. With his Meteor Early Stage powers, a casual glance from him made many people dare not look directly at him. The chaotic scene suddenly became quiet.

Lin Zhen sensed Allen’s gaze linger on him briefly, with a hint of a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Lin Zhen didn’t have a good impression of Allen. He had tried to stop Dongfang Jun from saving people in Zhao Dong, and later Lin Zhen killed Tang Yu, probably guessing that Allen had something to do with it.

Now, with the matter of the church’s demolition, Allen truly hates Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen didn’t care. As long as Allen didn’t confront him openly, he wasn’t afraid of him. Even if he couldn’t beat him, Lin Zhen could escape to a different dimension with a spatial fold.

Allen said to the people below, “The Holy Son is just passing by to take a look. You all should carry on with your business. If anyone disturbs the Holy Son, the Gods Clan’s power is not only about divine blessings but also divine might. I believe none of you would want to experience that.”

No one in the surrounding area dared to make a sound. Some people dispersed, while some devout believers worshiped from afar, their faces filled with excitement but not daring to disturb.

Allen ignored these people and said something to the person inside before another man stepped out of the vehicle.

This man was as tall as Lin Zhen, both with a height close to 1.9 meters. With handsome facial features, golden hair, and black eyes like the night sky, he walked with a strong aura. A blood-red gemstone hung on his forehead, which was a top-quality mental defense star artifact, and he wore the golden priest robe of the Star Sky Divine Teaching.

The golden priest robe, adorned with embroidered stars, signified the highest status in the Star Sky Divine Teaching.

Although Allen was also a Meteor-stage expert and part of the Great Divine Sect, he paled in comparison to this man.

“Sir, this is Ancient God City. I’ve asked people to quiet down so you can take a look around,” said Allen.

Yan Huang nodded slightly and stepped down from the black ghost, walking into the market.

The people around hardly dared to breathe, looking at this man who resembled a deity. He was like the sun, dazzling and eye-catching, making people feel somewhat humiliated by their inferiority.

Yan Huang stopped in front of a stall manned by a twenty-something Sand-Russian woman. A Second-level War God with mediocre strength and a pretty face, she did not know what to do when Yan Huang appeared before her.

Yan Huang squatted down slightly and asked the woman, “How much is this meteorite, young lady?”

Stuttering, the Sand-Russian woman replied, “Sir… the small meteorites are 20 million each, the medium ones… 50… 50 million each, and the largest one…

100…100 million each.”

The woman was selling dark energy stones with a fair price and good business.

Yan Huang showed a slight smile and asked, “If I buy all of them, can you give me a discount?”

“1…1 can give you a 10% discount,” the woman, charmed by his smile, had hearts nearly popping out of her eyes.

“Thank you, I’ll pay with my card,” Yan Huang said, taking out a golden bank card. All the vendors here had card machines since carrying that much cash would be impractical.

The Sand-Russian woman swiped the card nervously, and Yan Huang raised his hand, collecting all the dark energy stones from her stall, less than twenty in total.

“You’re welcome, sir!” The woman returned Yan Huang’s card.

Yan Huang slowly raised his hand, a faint white glow circulating around it. He smiled gently at the Sand -Russian girl.

Embarrassed and unsure of what to do, the woman was at a loss. Allen informed her, “You’re lucky. The Holy Son will bestow his blessings upon you personally. From now on, you are a member of the Gods Clan, and any old ailments or injuries you have will be healed by this blessing.”

“Is…is that true? Oh my god!” Tears filled the Sand-Russian woman’s eyes as she looked nervously at Yan Huang.

“Come, young lady, I can communicate with the God of Stars and feel that you are destined with our Gods Clan. Let you bathe in the grace of God.”

Seeing Yan Huang glowing in white as if an angel descended, the Sand Russian girl cried in gratitude, immediately kneeling before Yan Huang.

Yan Huang’s palm gently touched her head, and a white light fell, immediately enveloping her entirely in the white light.

The girl let out a moan of pleasure, closing her eyes, her body trembling slightly.

About ten seconds later, Yan Huang withdrew his hand: “Having received the grace of God, how do you feel now?”

The girl opened her eyes excitedly, then moved her limbs and suddenly exclaimed in disbelief: “My internal injury, the injury I got while training in the Wilderness Area, is completely healed!”

“A miracle! This is simply a miracle!” Allen shouted from the side.

Some devout believers around immediately knelt down excitedly, shouting the Holy Son’s name, being grateful for witnessing this thrilling scene.

The Sand Russian girl even wanted to kiss Yan Huang’s boots.

“Holy Son, I shouldn’t take your money. I will immediately transfer the money back to you, just as offering to the True God of the Stars.”

The Sand Russian girl excitedly took out her bank card, about to transfer the money to Yan Huang.

However, Yan Huang didn’t accept: “Keep it, child, it’s what you deserve.”

The Sand Russian girl was even more moved, even wiping her tears of excitement.

Lin Zhen watched the showering of praises from a distance and said to Zhang Yue: “Fatty, if the Holy Son buys something from you, would you want to refuse money and kiss people’s feet like that Sand Russian girl?”

Zhang Yue shook his head like a rattle drum: “I am not that love-struck woman. A businessman should make money. I will never do a losing business. The Holy Son has to pay as usual when buying things. Perhaps out of respect for him being the Holy Son, I can give him a 95% discount, hmm, at most 95% off.”

Zhang Yue spoke, noticing that Allen was actually leading the Holy Son in this direction, and immediately got excited: “Idol, can you pretend to be a buyer and be my shill later, let the Holy Son buy my stuff at a high price, and then we’ll split it half and half, and I’ll treat you to a good time in Capital Base City.”

Lin Zhen laughed: “The plan seems a little feasible, but when the Holy Son comes to your stall and sees all the fake goods modeled after his armor, won’t you be beaten up by the crowd?”

“Ah! How could I forget this? This is like a ghost meeting a real person. We’re going to get exposed! Idol, come help me gather my stuff.”

Zhang Yue suddenly became frantic, and started bustling trying to tidy up the stall.

Yan Huang and Allen’s walking speed was very fast; they were almost at Zhang Yue’s stall in the blink of an eye and stopped.

Yan Huang pointed to the armor on Zhang Yue’s stall and said to Allen: “Allen, this is the ‘umpti’-th stall we’ve come across selling black-hearted money based on my armor style, right?”

Allen said, “It seems to be the third one.”

Yan Huang shook his head slightly: “These people are really only interested in profits. Although I’m not good at punishing them personally, I should let the world see their ugly faces, so as not to deceive others.”

“Don’t worry, Holy Son, I’m already filming.”

Inside Allen’s long robes, there was actually a cell phone, and secretly, he had already captured Lin Zhen and Zhang Yue’s movements on video.

After putting away the phone, Allen said to Lin Zhen, “You seem a bit familiar?”

Zhang Yue hurriedly interjected: “Allen, don’t you recognize him? He’s Lin Zhen, from Ice City Base City. We’re fellow countrymen, and he’s the champion of the War God’s Knockout. This stall is mine, not his. Don’t smear him.”

Allen smiled, “Don’t try to get closer to me. Now that the Gods Clan is about to unify, there are no more national borders for our Clan. All people are believers in the Gods Clan, and trying to get closer to me is useless. I will not let you off the hook.”

He then looked at Lin Zhen: “So you are Lin Zhen. I thought you looked familiar. How is it? Is it profitable to sell fake goods at a stall?”

Lin Zhen looked at Allen as well. He had realized by now that Allen and Yan Huang had come here to find trouble with him.

Through the internet, they could see him in the Ancient God City, and even his coming out was not a secret. With the speed of the Black Ghost, they could reach here in just ten minutes.

But why did they come all this way to find trouble? Lin Zhen could understand Allen alone, but Yan Huang was completely unrelated to him. Why did he come over here?

However, Lin Zhen didn’t care too much about Allen’s little trick, for who would believe that someone who would spend 600 billion for the country to build city walls would be a stall-seller of fake goods?

Even if there were video evidence, some people would believe it, but Lin Zhen didn’t care. People who tried to smear Lin Zhen had always been numerous, but none could stop his path to the top.

To Allen’s question, Lin Zhen sneered: “It’s alright, I guess. Even though the fakes are fake, they’re still better than those swindlers who deceive the world and steal a name using the so-called Gods Clan.”

As Lin Zhen spoke, Yan Huang, who had been standing aside, looking down at Lin Zhen, changed his expression slightly..
