Jiang Chen and the others were all stunned, staring blankly at Li Jianfeng.
This powerhouse, who had been under house arrest for over a year, turned out to be a figure from a thousand years ago!
Moreover, he was a formidable figure who stood shoulder to shoulder with Blood Venerate a thousand years ago — who would have thought?
"Dragon Saint, why didn’t the Dragon Guardian Clan stop Uncommon and his brother back then? Instead, it was Jiang Wuqing and his brother who directly eliminated him?"
Li Jianfeng turned to look at Dragon Saint, a hint of doubt showing in his eyes.
Alas!
Dragon Saint sighed lightly, and his eyes also showed a nostalgic look: "Back then, when the Eight-Headed appeared, the Dragon Guardian Clan fully focused on tracking it down, completely disregarding the Fla Dragon’s situation. We fell for the Eight-Headed’s sche and were lured overseas, to the present Beihai National. By the ti we returned, the battle was already over!"
Li Jianfeng and You Xuan both fell silent.
They both participated in that past battle — one directly in the early stages, and the other as a supporter of those who initiated it, so they had deep feelings about those events!
"Well... Ning Bufan was not actually eliminated by Ancestor Jiang Wuqing and Second Ancestor."
Jiang Chen felt like he should say sothing, not knowing if it really mattered now, but he still spoke: "He had always been suppressed by Second Ancestor within our Dragon Descendants’ bloodline inheritance, and later..."
Jiang Chen ntioned Ning Bufan and Jiang Wuwei’s self-sacrificing rescue of him!
"Sure enough, my brother Uncommon! Regardless of whether my brother Uncommon was right or wrong back then, he was still a good man!" Li Jianfeng spoke excitedly.
The others fell silent, as only Dragon Saint, Li Jianfeng, You Xuan, and Jiang Chen had interacted with Ning Bufan. The rest had only heard of him and felt little about him!
Still, everyone admired silently, thinking Blood Venerate truly was a heroic figure, deserving of being called a man!
The living room fell into silence!
"Ahem!"
A cough broke the silence in the living room. Jiang Chen hesitated for a mont and spoke softly: "Let’s not talk about matters of the past. After all, they’ve passed. Mr. Li, you ntioned earlier that a thousand years ago you were still on Yuan Star, then you..."
"During the battle a thousand years ago with brother Uncommon and You Xuan, I was seriously injured and hid in the mountains to recuperate. When my wounds were better, I intended to find my brother Uncommon again, but by then, the Martial Dao World had already spread the news of his death."
Li Jianfeng sighed: "I established a morial for my brother Uncommon and guarded his spirit for a hundred days, unexpectedly achieving transcendence as two souls rged into a Divine Infant. At the ti, I had little attachnt to the world anymore, so I broke through space and went to the Void Nether Realm!"
Li Jianfeng composed his emotions and continued: "In the Void Nether Realm, I t the Sect Master, whose character was quite like brother Uncommon’s — very generous and a man of temperant. He invited to join the Blood Shade Hall."
"When I learned people from the Twelve Domains were sent to ingress into Yuan Star, I was sowhat uneasy. With his help, I found a space rift to send a strand of my Primordial Spirit here!"
"The stance of Blood Shade Hall is..." Jiang Chen asked tentatively.
Li Jianfeng smiled slightly: "Blood Shade Hall’s stance is neutral; otherwise, I wouldn’t be the only one sent here."
"Ah!"
Suddenly rembering sothing, Li Jianfeng explained: "After arriving, I possessed the body of a heinous mountain bandit chief and haven’t hard anyone from Yuan Star!"
Jiang Chen gently nodded.
Dragon Saint saw that Li Jianfeng’s story was mostly finished and steered the topic back: "Mr. Jiang, you ntioned earlier that you plan to visit space rifts everywhere. Do you an..."
"I’m going to try and see if I can destroy all the space rifts!" Jiang Chen spoke solemnly.
"Destroying them all is impossible!"
Li Jianfeng shook his head: "After coming here, I secretly inspected the space rifts. Those used by the batch from a thousand years ago are already stable, and the Void Nether Realm aims to penetrate them too. However, those appearing due to the resurgence of Spiritual Energy might be worth a try!"
"No matter what, it’s always good to take a look!" Jiang Chen spoke softly, turning to the others.
"Hu Zi, gather all brothers at Venerable Realm and above."
"Elder Yao, distribute all the stocked elixir."
"Elder Long, arrange to et those people next Wednesday!"
Jiang Chen gave so instructions: "After the eting, we’ll start comprehensive deploynt!"
"Yes!"
"Got it!"
"Good!"
Yan Hu and his two companions nodded.
"Everyone of peak realm, let’s go together. If the situation Mr. Li described occurs, then peak powerhouses will need to guard directly there." Jiang Chen called out.
"Alright!"
The crowd nodded in agreent.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
The team wasted no ti; once decided, they took to the sky heading towards the nearest space rift.
...
Yunpiao Sect’s old site.
Yunpiao Sect’s old site has now turned into a highly-defended station.
In front of the suspension bridge leading out of Yunpiao Sect’s station, there’s a modernized bunker with two heavy machine guns mounted. Two robust warriors pay close attention to the bridge opposite.
The entire outer vicinity of Yunpiao Sect has high walls built and electrified nets installed. Multiple hidden sentries are posted on the cliff outside the walls, while patrolling teams led by strong Venerable Realm mbers occasionally fly over the station.
Inside the station, bursts of intense pressure sotis appear, intimidating potential troublemakers.
Tap tap tap!
Footsteps sounded as a graceful and dazzling female soldier approached the suspension bridge from within the station.
"Captain!"
A shout ca from the bunker as Long Wuhen erged: "You going out?"
"Yes!" Su Yun smiled slightly: "I’m off to Jincheng."
"Captain, take with you!"
Long Wuhen approached Su Yun, putting on a pitiful look: "Ever since coming here, it’s been suffocating. I just don’t get it — we’re the Kylin Squadron, after all, the best team of the Fla Dragon, so why were we dispatched to this godforsaken place?"
"Stop complaining!"
Su Yun glared at Long Wuhen and looked around, whispering: "I’ve heard from grandma that an imminent threat to the world exists here. Didn’t you notice grandma, Elder Qing, Elder Bai, Elder Hei all guarding here?"
"Whoa! Is it really..."
Long Wuhen exclaid, lowering his voice under Su Yun’s glare: "I thought so too. We’re the strongest team, the Kylin Squadron, so we wouldn’t be tasked with a simple guard duty!"
"Give it a rest. If the Long Ya Special Forces hadn’t left the Fla Dragon Group for... for Mr. Jiang’s place, would Fla Dragon’s top team be us?" Su Yun spoke with a complex expression.
"Not comparing to that bunch — Mr. Jiang gets special treatnt for them, or else..." Long Wuhen stopped short.
Su Yun teased Long Wuhen with a look, seemingly encouraging him to continue.
Long Wuhen awkwardly smacked his lips, eventually not spitting out arrogant talk.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
Suddenly, four figures appeared beside Su Yun and Long Wuhun, frowning as they looked towards the sky.
"Grandma, Elder Qing, Elder Hei, Elder Bai, what’s wrong?" Su Yun asked in surprise.
"Soone’s coming, and they’re strong! Their aura is restrained, making identification difficult!" Ming Que spoke deeply.
Su Yun and Long Wuhen’s expressions changed as they looked up attentively towards where the four elders were focusing.
