Although Yunzhou still has five Master Level Commanders, including Kuang Shaohua, they all only have the cultivation of the Golden Body First and Second Forging. This level of cultivation is not enough to serve as the General of the State, unable to subdue everyone or protect all the people of the state.
The three of them found an inn in Yunzhou City and settled down, but they didn’t have to wait for several days. On the second day, several powerful presences crossed the sky and descended upon the Yunzhou Demon Suppression Bureau.
"Why have so many people co!"
Ji Qingyue frowned slightly, noticing three Martial Venerable powerhouses arriving at the Demon Suppression Bureau, none of whom were weaker than Zhong Zhenyu.
Normally, even if the Daqian Kingdom sent experts to serve as Yunzhou’s General, one would suffice, yet suddenly three had co.
If the Daqian Kingdom’s Demon Suppression Bureau had so many experts, the Demon Fiends wouldn’t have been dominant all the ti.
Li Yunfei shook his head: "Among those three experts, only one is from the Demon Suppression Bureau. The other two, one is the Grand Elder of Daqian Kingdom’s Mist Smoke Sect, and the other is the Sect Leader of Changchun Palace. If I rember correctly, these two are close friends with Zhong Zhenyu!"
Wei Fan raised his eyebrows: "You an they might be here to stand up for Zhong Zhenyu?"
Li Yunfei shook his head again: "I don’t know either. Maybe they’re here to see an old friend one last ti. Although Zhong Zhenyu fell into the Demon Dao, they’ve shared centuries of friendship.
Besides, you know, these Jianghu Sects often only focus on loyalty, regardless of righteousness or evil."
Wei Fan took a sip of wine: "Let’s hope they side with the Human Race and not just their friends."
The three of them sat by the window in the restaurant, sipping wine, conversing while also paying attention to the talk among Jianghu heroes in the restaurant.
The Jianghu of the Daqian Kingdom is even more prosperous than the Great Victory Dynasty, with many people roaming the world with a sword. Given the Human Race’s weak state and constant harassnt by Demon Fiends, there are many Jianghu people mingling in the underworld.
Even in a place like Yunzhou City, gang fights frequently occur.
"I heard the Village Chief’s youngest son, Wu Zhaoyan from Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, will duel Zhou Hu from Feiyun Stronghold at Bibo Lake in three days. Unfortunately, Bibo Lake is too far from here. At my pace, I can’t reach Bibo Lake in three days!"
Suddenly, a piece of news piqued Wei Fan’s interest, and he couldn’t help but listen intently.
He looked over and noticed the conversation was among several Acupoint Martial Artists, each exuding a strong Evil Qi, obviously from the underworld.
"The duel between Wu Zhaoyan and Zhou Hu is indeed a grand event. However, it’s a bit ridiculous for two major black path forces to settle their differences through a duel."
"For the dignified Prisoner Dragon Stronghold to be so timid, not daring to battle Feiyun Stronghold head-on."
"I heard Prisoner Dragon Stronghold lost many experts in the Great Victory Dynasty, felled by that Wei Fan, who slew a Martial Venerable powerhouse and many from the Divine Realm, forcing them to resolve their grievances with Feiyun Stronghold in this manner."
"This Wei Fan is quite a fierce individual, the only kind able to subdue Prisoner Dragon Stronghold!"
...
Wei Fan turned his head toward Li Yunfei.
He evidently understood what Wei Fan ant and said imdiately, "Bibo Lake is in Yu Hengzhou of Daqian Kingdom. At Martial Venerable speed, it takes less than half a day to fly there."
After thinking for a mont, he continued: "Feiyun Stronghold is a bandit force within Daqian Kingdom, akin to Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, not much weaker. In recent years, Prisoner Dragon Stronghold has been trying to extend its claws into Daqian Kingdom, with the two forces constantly at odds both openly and in the shadows.
This duel, I just heard about it now. The authenticity of the news is unknown, but if you’re interested, I can help you find soone to look into it."
While speaking, he took out his Inspector Waist Token and began communicating with soone.
A dozen monts later, Li Yunfei put away the waist token: "Indeed, there is such a rumor in Jianghu, saying this duel was proposed by Prisoner Dragon Stronghold. If Prisoner Dragon Stronghold loses, they will withdraw from Daqian Kingdom. If they win, both strongholds will rely on their own capabilities, no longer fighting.
As for the truth of the rumor, it remains a Jianghu tale; no one has heard Prisoner Dragon Stronghold or Feiyun Stronghold personally stating this matter.
If you want to go, I can show you the way!"
With the matters in Yunzhou concluded and the arrival of experts from the Demon Suppression Bureau, they no longer needed to remain here.
"No need; Bibo Lake shouldn’t be an unknown place. It can be inquired about!"
With his current strength, it’s feasible to settle matters with Prisoner Dragon Stronghold; however, there aren’t many people in the world who know its location.
Wei Fan didn’t trouble Li Yunfei, planning to find Bibo Lake himself with Ji Qingyue!
Later, Kuang Shaohua appeared, expressing his gratitude to them, informing them that the new General had already taken office.
After seeing off Kuang Shaohua, the three of them returned to their rooms, planning to leave Yunzhou the next day!
[Golden Body·Third Forging (100%)]
...
[Ordinary Power: 111,000 years]
[Golden Body Power: 290 years]
The ordinary power once again broke through the hundred thousand threshold; Wei Fan planned to enhance the Human King Bell one more ti.
The Flying Tiger Venerable ntioned sothing about the Heaven-Supporting Demon King earlier, which cannot be taken lightly.
The panel started to flicker, the Human King Bell inside him began to vibrate. Wei Fan watched the changes closely, until adding the hundred thousand years of power, raising the Human King Bell to the Master Level.
By now, the power he has spent on this martial art has reached four hundred thousand.
"Should be able to kill a Demon King now, right!"
He hasn’t experienced the Demon King’s might, nor does he know whether the Human King Bell can eliminate a Demon King presence.
[Golden Body·Fourth Forging (100%)]
[Ordinary Power: 11,000 years]
[Golden Body Power: 90 years]
After consuming another two hundred years of Golden Body Power, breaking through to the Mid-Martial Venerable stage, reaching the Golden Body Fourth Forging, Wei Fan finally closed his eyes to sleep.
The next day, the three left Yunzhou City, parting ways outside the city after bidding farewell to Li Yunfei.
Wei Fan set his sights in the direction of Yu Hengzhou, flying off into the sky with Ji Qingyue.
But just as he ascended the sky, he noticed several figures from Yunzhou City also taking to the air, trailing behind them.
Ji Qingyue’s expression shifted slightly: "It’s the Grand Elder of Mist Smoke Sect, the Sect Leader of Changchun Palace, and the new General of Yunzhou!"
Kuang Shaohua didn’t reveal what kind of person the new General is.
But both Mist Smoke Sect and Changchun Palace are Peak Sects in the Daqian Kingdom, their strength far surpassing that of the Bright Moon Sect, indicating these three are here for Wei Fan.
Clearly, because they were still close to Yunzhou City, they dared not approach rashly and rely trailed behind.
Wei Fan squinted his eyes slightly: "Ignore them; if they act, just back away!"
This is endless, isn’t it?
The Grand Elder of Mist Smoke Sect and the Sect Leader of Changchun Palace are one thing, but even the new General is here, do they take his temper so lightly?
The two flew for a while longer, until they were dozens of miles away from Yunzhou City, when the three behind them started accelerating to catch up.
Wei Fan simply let Ji Qingyue continue flying while he landed on a mountain top.
A dozen monts later, three figures appeared opposite Wei Fan.
He scanned them with his eyes, the panel giving no response: "This place is deserted; if the three of you want to make a move, do it quickly!"
The three had strong auras, with only the new General’s being weaker than Zhong Zhenyu’s, while the others’ auras were much stronger, conservatively estimated as Golden Body Eighth Forged Martial Venerables, or possibly Golden Body Ninth Forging experts.
For if their cultivation was only equivalent to Zhong Zhenyu’s, they likely wouldn’t dare to co after Wei Fan.
The Grand Elder of Mist Smoke Sect wore an unfriendly expression: "You’re truly young and impetuous. Back in my impetuous youth, I would’ve surely extinguished you with a single palm!"
Wei Fan remained expressionless: "In your impetuous youth, I could kill you a hundred tis with a breath. Just because you’ve lived long, you dare to act arrogantly before , and as for being impetuous, old man, you can try right now to see whether you kill , or I kill you."
With this, the Grand Elder of Mist Smoke Sect nearly exploded in anger, almost ready to strike, but was restrained by the Sect Leader of Changchun Palace beside him.
The Sect Leader of Changchun Palace stepped forward, giving Wei Fan a cold stare, "Wei Fan, we are here today to give you advice, don’t go to extres. Our Desert Martial Alliance has already seen several affiliated sects destroyed by you, and there will be no rcy next ti!
The Seven-Colored Golden Body not yet fully developed shouldn’t be your reason for arrogance."
mbers of the Desert Martial Alliance have arrived!
Whether their involvent is purely due to the Desert Martial Alliance matters or also concerns the issue of Wei Fan eliminating Zhong Zhenyu remains unknown.
