Chapter 891: The Head of the Four Flags of the Dragon Tooth Vein

After leaving the main hall, Li Luo headed straight for the Fiend Demon Peak.

When he arrived at Fiend Demon Peak, he saw that on the square before the Fiend Demon Cave, the flag-bearers of all four flags had gathered, the atmosphere bustling and lively.

The morale of the four flags now was completely different from half a year ago.

In the past, among the four flags, the Jin Guang flag had the highest morale; its flag-bearers took pride in this, displaying the bearing of the head of the four flags, while as for the Qing Ming flag, it was the most inconspicuous unit; during daily gatherings of the four flags, the Qing Ming flag-bearers would scatter everywhere, presenting a scene of utter disarray.

But now, the Qing Ming flag-bearers had become the unit with the most formidable momentum.

All Qing Ming flag-bearers wore faces full of pride, their morale surging, and even their voices had become louder.

There was no choice; who could blame them when their Qing Ming flag had acquired such an outstanding Great Flag Leader, who in merely half a year had forcibly pulled them from the bottom position among the twenty flags to the forefront.

The Qing Ming flag was still the Qing Ming flag of old, with no significant personnel changes; the only difference was that they now possessed a new Great Flag Leader.

The current Qing Ming flag had officially surpassed the Jin Guang flag on the Fiend Demon Cave progress chart of the twenty flags, squeezing into the top five.

And all these changes were due to Li Luo, this new Great Flag Leader.

Precisely because Li Luo had brought this transformative evolution to the Qing Ming flag, his prestige and status in the hearts of the Qing Ming flag-bearers had now climbed to the peak; everyone held his words without any doubt, obeying them completely.

The Jin Guang flag-bearers nearby, gazing at the imposing Qing Ming flag, all had complex expressions; although they were displeased that their status had been shaken, even they could not deny the stunning combat achievements Li Luo had achieved over these half a year.

Moreover, most importantly, when Li Luo first arrived at the Qing Ming flag, he was merely at the Fiend Palace Realm, but now he had cultivated the Glazed Fiend Body, and the level gap between him and top Great Flag Leaders like Deng Deng Fengxian had begun to narrow.

Therefore, now no one knew exactly how much gap remained between this Great Flag Leader of the Qing Ming flag and top geniuses like Li Li Qingfeng, Lu Lu Qingmei, and Deng Deng Fengxian.

However, the answer to this might emerge today.

Because they had all received news that the meeting of the four flags today would likely decide the head of the four flags of the Dragon Tooth Vein, to better cope with the impending "Dragon Head Contest."

This was a normal matter; after all, although the four flags of each vein operated independently, they still ultimately needed a legitimate leader to maintain the unity of the four flags during special moments to face external enemies.

Previously, the Jin Guang flag-bearers naturally felt that the position of head of the four flags must belong to Deng Deng Fengxian; after all, although Li Jingtang and Li Li Fengyi held extremely high status, in terms of prestige and strength, they indeed could not compare to Deng Deng Fengxian.

But now, with the appearance of this dark horse, Li Luo, everything had introduced a variable.

Even the Jin Guang flag-bearers did not dare to assert that Deng Deng Fengxian could win this position before the result appeared.

This emotion made the Jin Guang flag-bearers feel extremely complex; after all, half a year ago when Li Luo first arrived, they absolutely did not believe that this flag leader who had wasted time returning from Outer Shenzhou could be qualified to contend with Deng Deng Fengxian.

And while various emotions churned in the hearts of many flag leaders, Li Luo's arrival instantly caused the clamor in the field to pause, and numerous gazes projected toward him.

"Great Flag Leader!"

On the Qing Ming flag side, eight thousand flag-bearers saluted simultaneously; the shouting made the ground tremble slightly, and flocks of birds in the forest hurriedly flew about in panic.

Li Luo smiled and waved toward the Qing Ming flag side, then walked directly toward a stone pavilion on one side of the square, shaded by green foliage; there, the other three Great Flag Leaders had already arrived.

At the front of the Qing Ming flag, Zhao Zhao Yanzhi, with beautiful eyes, watched Li Luo's advancing figure, and a charming smile immediately appeared on her face as she said, "It looks like there will be a good show today."

Li Shi said, "Among the current four Great Flag Leaders, Great Flag Leader Li Jingtang actually has the strength to contend for the position of head of the four flags; he is skilled in defense and is quite effective against Great Flag Leader Deng Deng Fengxian's 'Golden Armor Spirit Blade', but his character is gentle and he dislikes conflict, so he will likely withdraw from the contest voluntarily; and Great Flag Leader Li Li Fengyi's strength is somewhat weaker than Great Flag Leader Deng Deng Fengxian's, so looking at it, it mostly comes down to our Big Brother."

"Can Big Brother defeat Deng Deng Fengxian? This contest cannot use 'Combined Qi', so we cannot help; moreover, I heard that Deng Deng Fengxian has been cultivating crazily during this period, and his strength should have improved significantly now; with his character, he will certainly not hold back in this contest for the head of the four flags," Mu Bi asked with some worry.

Zhao Zhao Yanzhi smiled charmingly and said, "Regardless of white robes or golden armor, anyone who dares to contend with our Great Flag Leader will today likely turn into 'tattered clothes and broken armor'."

Hearing this, Mu Bi could only sigh helplessly; I present facts and reason to you, and you just blindly praise him; it's simply impossible to communicate, but what else could he say? He could only say, "You are beautiful, so you are right."

Li Shi then smiled and said, "Many people think the 'Combined Qi' of the Qing Ming flag covers up his many flaws, but I think the 'Combined Qi' actually covers up his terrifying aspects."

"Perhaps, at the Dragon Head Contest, people from all veins will witness just how brilliant and extraordinary this person, whom they thought had wasted so many years in Outer Shenzhou, truly is."

Mu Bi scratched his head and muttered, "Damn, this sounds even more boastful."

Meanwhile, Li Luo, having entered the stone pavilion, looked at the three people inside and smiled, saying, "Sorry, I'm late."

His gaze swept over Li Jingtang and Li Li Fengyi, then paused on Deng Deng Fengxian; having not seen the latter for over half a month, he felt Deng Deng Fengxian seemed even more sharp, and the Phasic Power flowing around him had also become much more substantial.

"Great Flag Leader Deng Deng Fengxian's strength has indeed improved," Li Luo asked.

Deng Deng Fengxian said calmly, "One cannot remain stationary forever; otherwise, wouldn't one be quickly surpassed by Great Flag Leader Li Luo?"

Li Luo smiled, chatted briefly, then returned to the main topic: "The purpose of today's gathering, you all know; the Dragon Head Contest is imminent, and we of the Dragon Tooth Vein's four flags must also select a leader to prevent the other four veins from saying we have no head."

"I wonder what opinions the three of you have on this?"

Li Jingtang yawned and smiled foolishly, saying, "No opinion."

Deng Deng Fengxian said calmly, "Naturally, we must fight a duel; the victor becomes the leader; otherwise, how can we gain the trust of the masses?"

Crack!

Li Li Fengyi slapped the table, staring at Deng Deng Fengxian with a sinister look, and sneered, "You are right, so let's just fight first; how about this: the first match is Li Jingtang versus you, the second match is me versus you, and the third match is Li Luo versus you."

"If you can win all the way, the position of head of the four flags of the Dragon Tooth Vein will be yours!"

Hearing this, the corner of Deng Deng Fengxian's mouth twitched repeatedly.

Why not just have the three of you come up and fight me directly? Why waste words fighting three matches?!

"Great Flag Leader Li Li Fengyi, everything must be reasonable," Deng Deng Fengxian couldn't help but say.

"Oh? You say I am unreasonable and incomprehensible?" Li Li Fengyi stared at Deng Deng Fengxian with extremely dangerous eyes, and the sound of grinding teeth emerged from between her pearl-white teeth.

Li Luo touched his face; if you weren't my second sister, I would have nodded.

Deng Deng Fengxian said nothing; he did not want to argue with Li Li Fengyi because he couldn't win the argument at all, so he looked at Li Luo and Li Jingtang, but at this moment Li Luo was pretending to be deep in thought, while Li Jingtang kept emitting foolish laughter.

Deng Deng Fengxian, helpless and suppressing the urge to curse, said, "Then are we still competing or not?"

"Hehe, whatever," Li Jingtang smiled.

Seeing that Deng Deng Fengxian showed signs of exploding and leaving the scene, Li Luo finally smiled and said, "Then let's follow the rules; otherwise, we truly cannot gain the trust of the masses."

"Sigh, you two fight; I didn't rest well last night and have no energy," Li Jingtang scratched his somewhat messy hair, looking completely like a salted fish.

His answer was no surprise to anyone; Deng Deng Fengxian's gaze, carrying some sharpness and intense battle intent, turned toward Li Luo as he slowly said, "Great Flag Leader Li Luo, I think you should not easily yield this position."

Li Luo met Deng Deng Fengxian's sharp gaze and smiled brightly.

"Then today, I must learn from Great Flag Leader Deng Deng Fengxian's 'Golden Armor Spirit Blade'."
