Chapter 1463 Conferring The Title
In his early years in the Chaotic Region, Juan had been a ruthless man, killing whoever crossed his
path.
However, once he acquired an important status, he became apletely different person. Now, he
grew flowers and watered trees every day.
Among the Five Kings, the other four oftenunched wars, but Juan chose not to participate in any of
them. If someone dered war against him, he would usually send over some people to defend. After
defeating the offenders, he would send people to negotiate.
In other words, he had grown to be an agreeable man.
Otherwise, he wouldn''t have given Darren a chance to negotiate and probably would''ve killed him right
then and there.
Yet now, Darren had refused his simple request to be a justifiable king. Juan was left with no
other choice!
Therefore, even this new and improved Juan boiled with killing intent.
"Patriarch Darren, with your current strength and background, it won''t be possible for you to face any of
the powerful forces. If you had agreed to appoint me as king, I would''ve let you live. But since you don''t
appreciate my offer, you leave me no choice." Juan''s expression grew grave as he spoke.
"Juan, don''t be angry," Todd suddenly cut in, standing up to rush to Juan''s side. "Darren is from my
hometown," he continued. "He is like a family in this Primitive Wilderness. No matter what the result of
the negotiation is today, you are not allowed to hurt him, or you would be making it difficult for me."
Then he turned to Darren. "I know you may be angry with me, but this is the reality of the situation. You
are the patriarch of the Chu n and the Territory Enfeoffing Emperor, but face it: you don''t have the
corresponding force to seize the oldnd of the Chu n. Why don''t we both make a concession?
Trust me, I know Juan. He controls a territory, and the people in the region live and work peacefully.
That means he can be a good ruler.
So I advise you to agree to his request. At least, you will have one less powerful opponent."
Hearing this, Darrenpsed into silence for a while.
Turning to hispanion, he asked, "Rnd, what do you think?"
Darren couldn''t deny anything Todd said. It was stupid to forcefully protect something when his strength
was not strong enough.
Perhaps making apromise was the wisest way to go, after all.
"You are the patriarch. It''s up to you," Rnd said dismissively. Rnd actually had an opinion of his
own, but he knew he couldn''t meddle in Darren''s affairs. He had no choice but to support whatever
Darren decided to do.
"Okay." Darren took a deep breath. "Juan, I agree to grant you king, but I must be honest with you. I
don''t know how to do it."
"Ha ha, wise decision! Thank you, Patriarch Darren. Todd and I are like brothers. If he considers you a
friend, then so must I. What we must do is work together to maintain the order of the Chaotic Region.
I''ll exin the process of the conferment to you.
But there is something I have to say first." Juan''s expression grew serious. "Although I will be a king
beneath you from now on, if youe into conflict with any of the other four kings, I can''t step in to
help you, as this might cause a war. I hope you understand."
Obviously, what Juan meant was that, if the other four kings wanted to kill Darren, he wouldn''t interfere
even if they attacked Darren right in front of him. That would be Darren''s own business.
"I understand," Darren replied calmly. He had never thought of letting Juan be his backer. After all, they
were not friends.
"Well, thank you, then." Juan smiled slightly. Then, he imparted the method of granting a king into
Darren''s mind.
Darren quietly read the information. To his surprise, the process was very simple. He only needed to
use the n divine weapon to worship the heaven. Then, coupled with his soul power, he would need
to activate the unique identityw of the Territory Enfeoffing Emperor while chanting the words of the
granting ceremony.
Now that they hade to terms, Darren didn''t hesitate to apply his new knowledge.
He immediately began the process of appointing Juan as king, making the n divine weapon floating
in front of him and infusing his soul power into it.
From outside the house, thunder and lightning shed all of a sudden. The aura of the Territory
Enfeoffing Emperor shrouded the whole ce.
"I, Darren Chu, now issue an imperial edict. Today, I formally give Juan Qi, the title North King. He will
be responsible for guarding the northnd and protecting the safety of the people..."
After Darren finished reciting the words from memory, the sky grew dark as storm clouds crowded
together. Streaks of lightning shed in the sky, breaking the Punishment Law that connected to Juan.
And with that, Juan''s inauguration as king was done.
Juan beamed. It was obvious he was in high spirits, as though his cultivation had been improved by
one level.

"Come on, Emperor Darren. Let me propose a toast to you!"
With a big smile on his face, Juan raised his ss grandly, clinked it with Darren''s and drank it up.
After eating and drinking merrily, the banquet ended two hourster. Then, Juan left.
"s..."
Once his old friend had left, Todd sighed.
"Why do you sigh, sir?" Darren asked, curiosity piqued.
"You indeed have gone through a lot," Todd answered with sad eyes. "What a bumpy life! Among us
warriors from the Lotnn Continent, only Finley had a smooth path."
"Sir, did you ever meet Lord Feng?" Darren asked.
"I did, several times in fact. At that time, he was not very strong and had just stepped into the Superior
God Realm. Later, I entered the Chaotic Region. Since I couldn''t leave and he in turn could nevere
in, I haven''t seen him since," Todd said wistfully.
"Oh? Why can''t you leave the Chaotic Region, sir?"
Darren''s eyebrows shot up in confusion. What was wrong with the Chaotic Region? Almost all the
powerful warriors outside could not set foot on thisnd. The powerful masters inside couldn''t get out
either. How strange!
"It''s a bit hard to exin. Simply put, there is aw left behind by Supreme God Alfredo in the Chaotic
Region, which makes it difficult to get in and out. But it''s not that big a deal for us. In fact, it''s quite
helpful. Thisw is mainly used to prevent the chief gods from breaking in!"
Darren''s jaw fell open in shock.
He never expected his uncle, Alfredo, was that powerful.
Why, thew he left behind was strong enough to block even the chief gods! And there was one more
thing that Darren didn''t understand. What was his uncle guarding here, that he had to set up aw to
block the chief gods? Was there something hidden in the Chaotic Region that even the chief gods
coveted?
Although Darren was tempted to ask, he didn''t. He knew it''d be futile; it was impossible for Todd to
know the real reason.
"Sir, how is your cultivation base now?" Darren asked in a casual tone, changing the subject.
"Not so bad," Todd answered with a smile. "My cultivation base is slightly higher than that of Finley, but
I don''t think I can defeat him in terms of strength."
It suddenly clicked. That was when Darren realized that Todd had be as strong as a deputy god.
Lord Feng was at the top level of the Superior God Realm. Since Todd said that his cultivation base
was higher than his, that must''ve meant he was at the Deputy God Realm!
But he also said that his strength might not beparable to that of Finley. He probably knew a thing
or two about Lord Feng''s incredible fighting power. Otherwise, as a Deputy God Realm warrior, he
wouldn''t have said such a thing.
"I''m so envious of you, sir," Darren eximed excitedly. "You''re so powerful!"
Darren still had a long way to go to reach the Deputy God Realm. In fact, he wasn''t so sure he''d live to
be a deputy god.
"It''s just that I have practiced for a longer time than you have. Don''t worry. You are much more talented
than me. By the way, Darren, you are also a swordsman. Why don''t we try sparring? That way, I could
see if there''s any ws in your technique!" Todd said with a mischievous smile.
Darren understood what he meant: Todd wanted to teach him. By asking him to spar, he was only
being polite.
