At this time, the vast square was already bustling with activity.

All the believers of the Mad God Temple arrived here in solemn attire, and took charge of the following sacrificial ceremony together.

On the altar in the center of the square, the statue of the mad god looks domineering and majestic, like a god, looking down at the many busy figures.

Under the statue, there is a long offering table, which is filled with a large number of offerings of various kinds.

Chi You was standing beside the table at this moment, his expression calm. He looked up at the gradually brightening sky, with a hint of complexity in his eyes.

At this time of year every year, although the Mad Temple received a large amount of donations from believers from all over the country, the vast majority of them were divided up by the four Mad Kings.

In the end, only about 10% was left.

Let’s not talk about these for now. The most important point is the dignity of the Mad Temple.

Back then, the Mad God Temple, under the leadership of the Mad God, dominated the entire Mad Clan.

Its power even developed to the point where it could compete with the Babel gods.

But now, it is hard to describe...

"Master Palace Master, I have brought the Lord of Tianluo City with me."

At this moment, Mag's voice interrupted all the sorrow in Chiyou's heart.

He immediately put away the expression on his face and turned to look at Lin Hao and others who were walking towards him.

Looking at the other person's meaningful eyes, Lin Hao couldn't help but take a deep breath.

The magic dragon is now out of his control, so he is not sure he can suppress the four mad kings next.

However, if the two sides really fall out, he will definitely not swallow his anger.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh…!!!

Before Lin Hao and Chi You started their fight, there were sudden sounds of breaking wind coming from the void not far away.

Looking ahead, one could see a large number of figures approaching at a very fast speed at a low altitude.

The four strong figures in the lead were none other than the Mad Kings of the four top forces of the Mad Clan.

Before coming here, Lin Hao had already learned the information about the four mad kings.

Their four top forces are located in the east, west, south and north directions of the area where the Mad Temple is located.

Although there are frictions between them from time to time, since they are evenly matched, there have never been any large-scale disputes.

With the resources paid by the Mad Temple every year, they can just sit back and reap the benefits without having to disagree over interests.

As they got closer, a large number of Mad Clan masters, led by the four Mad Kings, all landed on the ground.

They raised their hands to their chests and saluted respectfully towards the statue of the Mad God in tacit understanding.

"Palace Master Chiyou, it's been a year since we last met. I hope you're doing well. Hahaha."

Immediately, one of the mad kings, 'Teng Hong', spoke first, looked at Chi Youchen and smiled.

He has short hair and a scar on the left side of his face, which makes him look very tough with his muscular body.

Although the other three mad kings were not as tall as Teng Hong in stature, the powerful aura they exuded was no less powerful.

"You are now of noble status, and you are still able to come here every year to participate in the sacrifice. It is really an honor for our Mad God Temple."

Chi You smiled and immediately went up to greet him.

Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he still had to be polite when facing the four mad kings.

"I heard that the Mad Temple had a good harvest this year, and our Mad Clan believers donated more supplies than in previous years."

The one who spoke this time was another Mad King 'Ao Hou', a middle-aged strong man with dark skin.

He was wearing armor, and judging by its shape, it seemed to imitate the armor of the Mad God.

It is not difficult to see that this guy is definitely a fanatical follower of the Mad God!

Seeing this, Lin Hao couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

If this guy saw me wearing the real Mad God Armor, I wonder how he would react?

"Haha, thanks to the love of believers from all over the country for Lord Mad God, this year's donations are indeed a bit more than in previous years."

In response to Ao Hou's words, Chi You smiled and nodded, but he was already secretly cursing these greedy blood-sucking insects in his heart!

At this time, the third mad king 'Qingna' on the left looked at Lin Hao not far away with his eagle-like sharp eyes.

"You are the city lord of Tianluo City?"

Qingna stared at Lin Hao with a sharp gaze and asked in a cold voice.

Apparently, he had already heard about the latter being invited to participate in the memorial service.

Seeing it now, I was quite surprised.

The other three mad kings also noticed Lin Hao at this time and looked at him with interest.

They also didn't expect that this small city lord, who was only a mad general, would be so hot-headed that he dared to go against them.

"Yes, this is our Tianluo City Lord."

Lin Hao remained silent, and Long Yi next to him spoke first.

His subordinates introduced his identity to him, which invisibly revealed a hint of his status.

This made Qingna's face look even more gloomy.

"I remember that the Tianluo City area is under the jurisdiction of our Southern Territory, so starting from next year, the tribute will be doubled."

Qingna sneered and gave Lin Hao a direct warning.

Everyone knows that this kind of "tribute" is the so-called protection fee.

In the territory of the Mad Clan, almost all the forces, big and small, would pay tribute to the four Mad Kings every year in order to maintain stability.

Moreover, this tribute must be divided into different specifications and quantities according to the strength of each force.

"King Qing, Tianluo City has not paid tribute this year. It has been overdue for more than three months."

At this time, a subordinate nearby reminded him.

"oh?!"

Hearing this, Qingna's eyes darkened slightly.

He stared at Lin Hao with cold eyes and asked, "Why are you from Tianluo City so slow to hand it over?"

Lin Hao looked calm and asked in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Why should I hand it over?"

I learned from Long Er before that the annual tribute alone would be about 30 million Lingyang stones.

It seems to account for about 40% of Tianluo City’s annual output. How could Lin Hao agree to such a huge expenditure?

However, now, they want to add twice the protection fee, which is simply trying to force people into a desperate situation!

"How dare you! A mere city lord contradict our King Qing!"

The general who had spoken just now became furious.

At the same time, a powerful energy wave emanated from him, suddenly forming a red light vortex that enveloped Lin Hao.

Boom! Boom! Boom…!!!

The twelve blood guards activated their fire spirit bodies at the same time almost in an instant.

The violent flames roared and blew away the red light vortex in a brutal manner.

"Fire Spirit Celestial Body?!"

Seeing this, the pupils of the four mad kings shrank slightly.

If there was only one Mad Clan martial artist with a Fire Spirit body among Lin Hao's subordinates, they would not be surprised.

However, the twelve blood guards around Lin Hao are all martial artists with fire spirit physiques!

This kind of scene completely exceeded their previous imagination of small and medium-sized forces!
