Chapter 2115: Worshipped as a God (1)

"Hey, what are you doing? Have you lost your minds? You can't even tell who your master is?" the Dark Hall Master shouted with an agitated expression.

"Shut your mouth!" However, at that moment, one of the Third Level Half Ancestor elders suddenly let out a thunderous yell.

The instant those words left his lips, oppressive might erupted in all directions. The Dark Hall Master was blown away like a straw man by the sheer force of that pressure, slamming violently into a distant wall.

He opened his mouth and sprayed blood, while the sound of cracking bones continuously echoed from within his body.

In just a single strike, the Dark Hall Master had already suffered grave injuries.

"Someone, seize this arrogant fool!" The elder then pointed at the Dark Hall Master and bellowed.

Once those words left the elder's mouth, dozens of people rushed forward. Using special ropes, they bound the Dark Hall Master with brutal efficiency — their methods were so cruel that they treated him not as a human being, but as livestock.

"What is going on? What on earth is happening? Why are you doing this to me?"

The Dark Hall Master was on the verge of madness. He was truly bewildered by the scene before his eyes.

He had always believed that he was the master here, and that even if the people here did not obey his commands, they would still protect him.

But what was this situation now? He, the dignified master, had been bound hand and foot, while Chu Feng… was actually being worshipped by these people.

"Master, welcome home."

Suddenly, the three elders who had been kneeling before the enemy spoke in unison.

"Welcome home, Master!!!"

And after those three elders finished speaking, the thousands of kneeling experts spoke as one.

Regardless of their cultivation levels, when those words left their lips, they were imbued with deep reverence and joy.

As if Chu Feng were truly the master of this place, and they had truly been waiting all along for his return.

"You all… what is this?" In truth, even Chu Feng was somewhat stunned.

He had previously been convinced that these mysterious experts were the Dark Hall Master's backers.

But now it seemed that was not the case at all — everything had been turned on its head. These people seemed far more like his own backers.

"Master, we know you are still somewhat confused."

"But please, Master, come with us. We will take you to see someone, and then you will naturally understand everything." The leading elder rose to his feet, pointed beyond the great gate, and then led the way for Chu Feng.

Seeing this, Chu Feng did not hesitate and quickly followed behind.

With the crowd guiding him, Chu Feng entered the deepest reaches of this vast kingdom.

And Chu Feng gained an entirely new understanding of this place, for as he walked along, he could see many imposing guards holding Imperial Armors at various checkpoints. Judging by their appearance alone, it was clear they were extremely well-trained.

After passing through layers of fortified checkpoints, Chu Feng seemed to have entered the residential district of this kingdom, where he could see playing children, women, and passersby going about their day.

However, whether they were guards, children, or women, their bodies were all inscribed with special patterns, and the clothes they wore were woven from a special type of grass, making them quite distinctive.

Most importantly, the moment they saw Chu Feng, they would drop to one knee, bow deeply, and respectfully utter the same words: "Greetings, Master."

Chu Feng could even sense that some who were quite young, or who were around his own age, were so excited upon seeing him that their bodies trembled.

As if they had been eagerly awaiting this very day, longing for Chu Feng's appearance.

Although it seemed incredible, Chu Feng vaguely felt that these people held a deep sense of worship toward him.

It was not merely the reverence one would show a master — in their hearts, Chu Feng was more like a god, and that was why they treated him with such devotion.

"Could it be that I really am the master of this place?"

Chu Feng entertained this thought, because he was certain that they were definitely not members of his clan.
