Open up and break into another world

The Temple of Time and Space... is a very special power within the God Domain.

No one knows where the headquarters of the Temple of Time and Space is; however, every continent and city in the God Domain has a branch of the Temple of Time and Space.

Within the Temple of Time and Space, various tasks are accepted—for example, if you need some treasure, the Temple of Time and Space can help you find it; if you want to kill someone, the Temple of Time and Space can also help you kill them...

The Temple of Time and Space accepts almost any task.

However, there is one thing—the Temple of Time and Space's asking price is very high!

So high that it doesn't seem like they're doing business at all!

For example, to have the Temple of Time and Space send someone to the Microcosm to kill an ordinary demigod, even Mo Fang wouldn't have that many divine crystals! And to kill a monstrous demigod like Xu Ming, even ten Mo Fangs couldn't afford the price!

Therefore, to issue a task at the "Temple of Time and Space" to kill Xu Ming—Mo Fang was just saying it; he simply didn't have that many divine crystals.

...

One day later.

Qian Yishang and Elder Mo Fang knocked on Xu Ming's door again.

Mo Fang's expression was extremely unsightly—it really wasn't easy to see Xu Ming!

The first time, Mo Fang had Qian Yishang deliver a message, asking Xu Ming to come see him; however, Xu Ming completely ignored him and didn't go to see him at all.

Helpless, the second time, Elder Mo Fang had to personally "pay a visit"; unexpectedly, Xu Ming gave him the cold shoulder!

Now, this was already the third time Elder Mo Fang had come to find Xu Ming—it was practically the rhythm of Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage!

This time, Xu Ming opened the door directly. He looked at Qian Yishang and then at the cunning and gaunt old man "Mo Fang," a hint of playfulness flashing in the depths of his eyes.

"Gentlemen, what's the matter?" Xu Ming said with a smile.

Seeing Xu Ming open the door, Qian Yishang immediately regained some of his arrogant momentum; puffing out his chest, he said proudly, "This is my uncle—Elder Mo Fang of the Yellow Springs Hall!"

"Oh, I see!" Xu Ming glanced at him, indifferently, "Is there anything else?"

Qian Yishang was immediately stunned—he originally thought that after Xu Ming opened the door and saw his uncle Elder Mo Fang with his own eyes, he wouldn't continue to be so arrogant, right? Unexpectedly, Xu Ming was still as arrogant as ever, even directly ignoring Elder Mo Fang.

"Impudent!!" Elder Mo Fang's face darkened, "Arrogant brat, upon seeing this Elder, you actually don't kneel and pay respects! ?"

Elder Mo Fang had been in a high position in the God Domain for a long time; when he became angry, an invisible aura pressed towards Xu Ming.

However, Xu Ming didn't feel anything at all, still looking calm and composed.

Moreover, Elder Mo Fang's figure was relatively thin and small, so Xu Ming was looking down at him.

"You are an Elder of the Yellow Springs Hall?" Xu Ming asked.

"That's right!" Mo Fang's aura was cold and sharp, and his hawk-like eyes were even more eager to devour people, obviously extremely angry, already on the verge of exploding.

"Oh..." Xu Ming nodded thoughtfully, and then a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth, "You are an Elder of the Yellow Springs Hall, but... I am not a member of the Yellow Springs Hall, why should I kneel and pay respects to you?"

Xu Ming was right, he was indeed not yet a member of the Yellow Springs Hall, but only came to Naihe City to participate in the trial.

After the trial is over, if he successfully obtains first place and becomes the personal heir of the General; then, he will definitely have to join the Yellow Springs Hall. And if the trial fails, whether or not to join the Yellow Springs Hall is entirely up to Xu Ming's willingness; joining is of course fine, and no one will force him not to join.

Therefore, strictly speaking, Xu Ming is not yet a member of the Yellow Springs Hall!

"You..." Elder Mo Fang's aura stagnated, and after a while, he coldly shouted, "You have already participated in the King-level trial, could it be... you still don't want to join our Yellow Springs Hall?"

"Hehe!" Xu Ming said with a faint smile, "If I don't become the personal heir of the General, then I really have little interest in joining the Yellow Springs Hall!"

Xu Ming wasn't talking nonsense.

The Yellow Springs Hall was once a super power in the God Domain, but that was already "in the past"! The current Yellow Springs Hall can no longer be considered top-notch in the God Domain.

Moreover, Xu Ming has already offended an elder in the Yellow Springs Hall; since this is the case, why must he join the Yellow Springs Hall? — Wouldn't it be okay to join another power?

Then, Xu Ming looked at Mo Fang again and continued, "If I become the personal heir of the General, then my position in the Yellow Springs Hall, even if it's slightly inferior to yours, I'm afraid it won't be much different, right? — Asking me to perform a kneeling ceremony? You are not qualified enough!"

"You..." Elder Mo Fang's face turned green and then red—he had really never seen such an arrogant demigod!

"You... very good!!" Elder Mo Fang gritted his teeth and said, word by word.

"Of course I'm very good!" Xu Ming smiled disdainfully, "By the way, Little Mo, is there anything else? — If not, don't disturb my seclusion!"

As he said that, Xu Ming was about to close the door to see them off.

Little Mo?

Elder Mo Fang's mouth twitched for a while—this Xu Ming was really outrageously arrogant!

But seeing that Xu Ming was about to close the door, how could he be willing—after all, Mo Fang came to find Xu Ming because he had serious business! Now that he had said so much nonsense, he hadn't even started talking about the serious business yet!

Qian Yishang was also anxious: "Xu Ming, we have something to talk to you about!"

"Oh?" Xu Ming stopped closing the door, knowingly asking, "What is it?"

Mo Fang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Let's go inside and talk!"

"No need!" Xu Ming sneered, "If you want to talk, just talk here!"

Qian Yishang and Mo Fang were obviously ill-intentioned, there was nothing good; since this was the case, how could Xu Ming be polite to them?

In fact, Xu Ming was willing to open the door to see them, just because he wanted to... tease them!

Yes, tease them!

Elder of the Yellow Springs Hall? Great power of the God Domain? So what? — Mo Fang can't come to the Microcosm! Moreover, even if Xu Ming goes to the God Domain in the future, with Xu Ming's methods, would he be afraid of Mo Fang?

A murderous intent flashed in the depths of Mo Fang's eyes, but he still forcibly endured it.

"Xu Ming!" Mo Fang's voice was cold, "I hope you can concede in the third stage of the test and give up the first place!"

Xu Ming smiled: "Concede? — Why?"

Mo Fang said: "If you concede, I can let bygones be bygones regarding your offense against me! Moreover, I will also bestow some treasures upon you as compensation for your concession! — As long as you are willing to concede, we can discuss the conditions!"

Discuss?

"Qian Yishang, you haven't even fulfilled the bet you lost, right? — Discussing conditions with you? What if we agree, and I give up the first place, but you go back on your word, who would I cry to?" Xu Ming sneered, "I dare not trust you!"

Elder Mo Fang narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a long time before saying: "The position of General's heir must be Qian Yishang's! Even if you get it, I will make sure you can't inherit the position of General!"

"Is that so?" Xu Ming sneered—this Elder Mo Fang from the God Domain was really domineering enough!

"Think about it carefully... If you want to inherit the position of General, you must come to the Yellow Springs Hall in the God Domain; but that is my territory!" The threat in Elder Mo Fang's words was very strong.

At this moment, a strange smile suddenly flashed across the corner of Xu Ming's mouth: "It's not difficult to continue talking to me! — First, you have to make me able to trust you!"

"Huh?" Both Qian Yishang and Mo Fang were somewhat unclear about Xu Ming's meaning.

"It's very simple!" Xu Ming looked at Qian Yishang with a smile, "First, you have to fulfill the unfulfilled bet first! — Go and recognize a father first, then come and talk to me!"

After saying that, Xu Ming directly closed the door to refuse the guests.
