Chapter 298: Equal
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
New people were usually not allowed to enter this place.
Although they were called new Gods, they had existed for a long time.
“My benefactor,” the old man didn’t know how to describe Lin Ming, so he was silent for a while before he said these two words.
However, just these two words caused everyone present to be in an uproar.
To think Lin Ming was described as the old man’s benefactor!
This was enough to prove Lin Ming’s status. After all, he wasn’t just described as an honorable guest.
“Please sit,” the old man brought out a throne and said to Lin Ming.
“This…”
All the new Gods present were dumbfounded.
This was because the throne was exactly the same as the old man’s, and it was on the same level as the old man’s throne as well!
What did this prove? This proved that this guy who had just arrived had become the equal of the old man, meaning he possessed the highest status in this camp.
At this moment, the new Gods who hadn’t gone to the Heavenly Emperor’s birthday celebration were extremely unconvinced.
As for the few New Gods who had followed the old man to the birthday, they of course silently agreed to this matter.
In fact, from their point of view, the position the old man gave Lin Ming was too low.
After all, Lin Ming could beat up the old man.
Not only had he asked the other party to stop on behalf of his daughter, but he had now only given Lin Ming an equal position.
However, at this moment, all the new Gods were silent.
This was because the old man had built up his power and status here for a long time.
In addition, they relied on faith, and they had extremely pure faith in the old man.
Therefore, they instinctively agreed with the old man’s actions.
“Father, isn’t it a little inappropriate for you to do this? After all, he just entered our palace, yet already has such a position. I’m afraid…” At this moment, an extremely strong man appeared and said.
“What are you afraid of? Get out of here, you unfilial son!” Hearing this, the old man directly cursed!
Even if he gave this position to Lin Ming, Lin Ming might not be willing to sit in it!
Moreover, even the Heavenly Emperor treated Lin Ming extremely well. He didn’t even hesitate to use so many immortal peaches to show his goodwill to Lin Ming.
To think this unfilial son of his came out to say such nonsense now!
This made him extremely angry.
The old man had always doted on this son of his, but now, in just an instant, he had the urge to chase this unfilial son out of the house!
The more the old fellow thought about it, the angrier he got. He directly ordered, “Someone come and pull him out, give him a punishment of lightning strikes!”
“God-king! You…”
At this moment, everyone thought that the old man was doing this for his dignity.
After all, the group of new Gods was extremely hypocritical.
Therefore, the new Gods all quickly moved forward, wanting to persuade this old man to take back his words.
“If anyone dares to persuade me, don’t blame me for being merciless!” The old man frowned and coldly spoke.
With his words, the new Gods all understood that the old man wasn’t putting on any pretense this time.
“Father, are you really…” At this moment, the extremely strong man was somewhat dumbfounded.
He simply couldn’t understand how a single sentence of his had brought upon him a punishment of lightning strikes.
After all, he was his father’s favorite son!
“God-king, there’s no need for that. I’m not interested in this position,” Lin Ming waved his hand and said.
Lin Ming would never join any faction!
“Besides, it’s not good to hurt your father-son relationship just because of me,” Lin Ming added.
He had no interest in this position.
On top of that, if his existence caused a rift in the father-son relationship, Lin Ming would feel guilty.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Don’t pretend to be a good person here!” The muscle man said coldly.
“Shut up. You won’t be able to escape today’s punishment of lightning strikes!” The old man was truly furious this time as he bellowed.
At this moment, chaos had already broken out below!
The new Gods simply couldn’t understand why Lin Ming could make the old man be so respectful to him.
“Brother, hurry up and apologize!” Ernest Lin said to the man at this moment.
“Apologize? What a huge joke. What did I say wrong?”
This man had a very good relationship with Ernest Lin.
He was also very happy that his sister had finally returned.
However, how could he, who had always been arrogant, apologize just like this?
“I want to challenge you! I hope you will agree!” This man preferred using his fists to talk, so now, he actually challenged Lin Ming!
“This!”
The new Gods who had followed the old man to the Heavenly Emperor’s birthday looked at each other in dismay.
After all, his father had just been beaten up by Lin Ming, and now he wanted to run out and take a beating.
Although this man’s strength might surpass his father’s, that was all for naught!
Anyone from the Heavenly Emperor’s side had strength that surpassed the man’s father.
However, if one were to ask them to fight Lin Ming now, they would not have the courage to do so.
“I accept,” Lin Ming nodded and said.
Why should he decline?
“Ninth-heaven Thunders!” The man immediately made a move!
“Tsk, tsk!” Lin Ming could not help but laugh.
His strength was indeed greater than his father’s, but it was also of no use.
“I don’t want to hurt you,” Lin Ming spoke.
“Thunder!” He ordered.
The power this man used was a thunder-type power of rules.
With a light tap from Lin Ming, another thunder-type power of rules appeared.
Lin Ming’s thunder-type power of rules directly crushed the man’s!
When his power was just about to hit the man, all of the thunder-type power of rules disappeared!
“You!”
Not only was the man shocked, but the surrounding new Gods were also shocked!
Both parties had used thunder-type rules, yet why was there such a huge difference?
One had to know that when one’s power reached the rules tier, it was the strongest and most extreme power!
However, even though they were both using thunder-type rules, this man’s power of rules was like paper!
“Are you also proficient in thunder power?” The man couldn’t help but ask.
“I can use thunder power,” Lin Ming answered truthfully.
“But I can use other powers too,” He added.
At this moment, the new Gods who had gone to the Heavenly Emperor’s birthday celebration were all speechless.
After all, Lin Ming had used eleven types of power of rules in an instant back then.
Yet now the man was asking if Lin Ming was proficient in thunder power.
