174 Episode 27: Soul workers.

"Tsk." He smacked his lips, realizing that the underworld has gone bonkers. So much so that they messed up and mistook bonkers as boner. Or maybe, these three soul workers has offended a higher up and are sent here to die? That's it!

"Hang on!" Feng shouted, exerting his divine energy against them, the abyssal darkness was pulled back by the divine energy and the three soul-workers pipped down as they felt threatened by the divine energy and his gaze. 

His gaze that showed interest or is it disdain?!

"Do you three even know what you need to go against? Are you sure that the underworld didn't send you three here to become feed for the soul-devouring creature? No need to answer. You all seem pathetically weak and slightly mentally ill, I suppose, you all are sent here to die. Whom did you three offend in the underworld?" Feng said, expressing his disdain in words, the weakling gazed back at him with opened mouth.

If this was a normal mortal then they would have attacked already. At most, they will be punished for ten years for attacking a mortal. But the person in front of them had divine energy and possibly has a connection with a divine being, so they did their best to curb their urges.

One of them had even taken three steps to slap Feng on the face, but the soul worker in the middle used his chains to hold him back.

The soul worker in the middle pulled back his abyssal aura that was directed at the surroundings to intimidate Feng. Following him, the two soul workers also pulled back their abyssal aura.

The aura that smells like sulfur and sweet

Feng has watched all of that happening. He concluded that the man in the middle is the leader among the three. But then again, it doesn't matter as they all are too weak.

Probably at the transcendental level. The same as him, but he was filled with divine energy and a philanthropic of other energies and he had a lot of skills and abilities such as the power to control blood and lastly his trump card, the soul line of evil.

"Whose divine child are you?" He said lightly, his gaze filled with cautiousness and respect. But the words that came next even surprised Feng, "Are you someone from the Azure Heaven or the ninety-nine firmaments? But if you are then why would you be sent here, a mere transcendental to take care of the Soul-devouring creature. Could it be that you offended a higher-up of your Sect and now they want you dead? Or maybe it is that you aren't a Siant childe but a bastard?"

But the smirk died down when he saw his demonic eyes glaring at him. The same look that a beast gives to its prey!

Suddenly, Feng's lips thinned into a smile and he said, "Using my own words on me, you are shameless indeed! But shameless is what I like!". After a slight pause, he continued by saying,

"I am not someone from ninety-nine worlds in the firmaments of the Azure Heaven. And, don't mistake me as a saint Childe as it will be a disgrace to many."

To be referred to as a Saint Childe is a disgrace to Feng and the other Evil Empyrean.

The Azure Heaven and the ninety-nine worlds in the firmament are the factions that hunt down the soul-devouring creatures and curb their ever-growing invasions. The underworld, the ninety-nine worlds in the firmament, the Azure Sect, these three factions we're spread throughout universes, a total of twelve Universe.

"Not a Saint child?" The soul worker on the left said, feeling slightly confused he turned to look at the second soul worker.

"But you have divine energy!" The second soul worker standing on the right said.

The soul worker in the middle felt that he had hit the mark, and a wider smirk enacted his face. He said,

"If you are not a Saint childe, then who are you? Could it be that I am correct and you are a bast–" 

He was cut off by loud exclamations made by the man in front.

"You are the bastard! Your entire family is made up of bastards. Enough with the jokes! As for who I am, I am!" Feng said, he straightened his back and clasped his hand behind it.

"He is?" The three soul workers intently gazed at him, their intention fully focused on Feng, who continued by saying the same bullshit he had spewed in the past,

"I am the savior of humanity, the chosen inheritor of the legacies of the dragons. The «Elder-immortal origin dragon» himself had appeared in my dream and chose me as his disciple."

"Bullshit!" The three said at the same time. They were all from the Underworld, and the underworld always obtains all the information about the happenings in the physical world. The «Elder-Immortal Origin Dragon», they have never heard of him, even though he really existed but only a few knew of his existence, and these soul workers definitely didn't belong in the few who knew.

"Bullshit? What bullshit! Around three weeks ago, I was just a mere mortal but today I stand in front of you guys as a transcendental!" Feng said.

The two standing on the left and right asked the soul worker in the middle, "Kang Su, is he saying the truth?"

Kang Su could know if the person is lying or not while gazing in their eyes. He could check other past! His abyssal eyes lit up with a purplish aura, and a Curse book opened above his head and he shouted, 

Spiritual eyes!

The soul worker gazed directly into Feng's eyes and Feng gazed back. To the soul worker, it felt like he was looking inside an abyss! But he was after all a being from the underworld, so he kept his calm.

Kang Su used his soul Magic and Feng happily used the power of his soul line of evil.

Lang Su only obtained the memories that Feng wanted to provide him with. Feng removed most of the embarrassing happening in the apocalypse. He also removed all parts related to the soul line of evil or the Evil Empyrean from the memories. He also included the majestic appearance of the elder-immortal origin dragon. All in all, Feng provided them with a perfect alibi. Now, no one can link him with the tenth evil empyrean, a popular topic in the universes.

After a while, he anxiously turned around while grabbing the necks of the other two. He lowered his and the other head and whispered in a low-key voice, "He was indeed a mortal three weeks ago. Not just a mortal, but a really fat one. He was worse than pathetic. I have seen his life and it seems to me that he would have died because of overweight in three years, but the apocalypse started and a dragon blinded his vision. I don't know how it happened, but it seems like a week after the apocalypse started, he entirely changed and became a different person altogether. I say, let's not annoy this person, he is really powerful and he also has the same name as the realm destroyer Feng Mei!"

"What!" The two shouted in surprise.

"Shush!" Kang Su blocked their mouth and said, "Stay calm and think about it, he probably isn't the Realm destroyer. How could the realm destroyer be this weak?" 

The other two gaze thoughtful looks to each other and nodded. There's no way a being that can even kill a heavenly empyrean could be this weak. The tension vanished from their face.

Feng, who stood behind then, was gazing at their squirming body. He couldn't listen to what they were saying as the Soul worker used magic to block him from hearing what they are saying.

The three stood up and faced Feng, who said,

"So, are you ready to answer what I asked?"

Kang Su nodded and replied as he was the leader among the three soul worker, 

"We are indeed the only officials dispatched to this world. And we know why you think that we won't be able to take down the soul-devouring creature. But you are wrong! Don't look at our power levels but gaze at the item in my hand!" Kang Su said and pulled out a orb from his deep pockets.
