Yun Xiao killed Tang Yuanmu, killed Li Qingran (as outsiders believed), killed Tong Baisha, and defeated Ye Suxin. Such achievents already demonstrate his strength, which is definitely not below that of an Origin Seeking Realm Early Stage cultivator.
Just when everyone thought this was Yun Xiao's limit, the people from the Spirit Fighting Comrce of Yuyang City suddenly attacked, making them think that the young man was in dire trouble.
Who knew Yun Xiao rely used the Thunder Wood obtained from Thunder King Valley to refine a powerful large array, ultimately annihilating everyone from the Spirit Fighting Comrce except Xu Huang.
Yet this was still not Yun Xiao's limit. The Yun Xiao who made the Spirit Fighting Comrce of Yuyang City look disheveled suddenly faced an even more formidable enemy—Xia Yong, the Special Envoy of the Spirit Fighting Comrce headquarters, a Peak of Seeking Origin Realm expert.
Everyone thought that under such a powerful opponent, regardless of Yun Xiao's myriad thods, he stood no chance of reversing the tide. But who would have thought that the young man nad Yun Xiao would once again use an incredible technique to explain to everyone what it ans to defy fate.
Ultimately, Yun Xiao's thod of killing Xia Yong contained so elents of ingenuity, yet it was sothing none of the others present could achieve. At the end of the day, it was the power of one person, killing a Peak of Seeking Origin Realm expert.
"Sigh, Yun Xiao killed so many from the Spirit Fighting Comrce; I fear the coming days will be hard!"
Zhong Dao could only admire Yun Xiao, and thus he sighed in the end. Although they all promised not to spread the matter, it's unlikely this incident can be concealed for long.
At this mont, Zhong Dao regretted not reminding Yun Xiao to make everyone present swear a Heavenly Tribulation Poison Oath. That way, the secret of today might have been preserved for a longer period.
Without the restraint of the Heavenly Tribulation Poison Oath, and with hundreds or even nearly a thousand people present, many of whom did not even verbally assure secrecy earlier, the speed at which today's matter spreads will probably be faster than imagined.
Seeing Yun Xiao's thods, Zhong Dao believes that as long as the young man is given enough ti, he will likely have a place among the top experts of the Tenglong Continent.
But for now, after provoking the Spirit Fighting Comrce, it seems in the near future, this enormous entity will drive him to seek paths in the sky and hide underground in vain. Wishing for peaceful cultivation is just an illusion.
The Tenglong Continent's four top forces: the ridian Refining Master Guild doesn't care about worldly affairs, the Xuanyin Hall and Wuyan Palace possess formidable overall strength and their intelligence systems, but the first choice for finding soone is likely the Spirit Fighting Comrce.
After all, the Spirit Fighting Comrce has branches in every sizeable city, and with headquarters orders executed like commands of the hand, pursuit after pursuit makes it not difficult to find soone.
Of course, with matters of the future, Zhong Dao and others can only ponder. Such affairs aren't sothing they can interfere with, especially as it concerns the Spirit Fighting Comrce, which they dare not ddle with.
Even after Yun Xiao had long left, everyone still felt a lingering interest, gathering with three or five friends to whisper among themselves, all discussing the previous intense battles.
What they didn't see was the place where Yun Xiao had used dozens of Thunder Powers to kill, where two faint auras were emitting.
One aura quickly followed the direction where Yun Xiao disappeared, while the other aura soon vanished in the northern sky. If one were observant, they would find that the direction was precisely the Dragon Continent Center where the Spirit Fighting Comrce headquarters is located.
...
Southwest area of the Tenglong Continent's center!
This is the headquarters of one of the Tenglong Continent's four top forces, the Spirit Fighting Comrce. In this region, the Spirit Fighting Comrce is the invincible overlord, with many dium-sized, small forces, and even first-class forces living under its rule.
The divisions of powers and sects on the Tenglong Continent are naturally based on strength. Thirteen first-class forces control the Outer Domain of the Tenglong Continent, and four top forces are the sovereigns of the Inner Domain Core Territory.
The Spirit Fighting Comrce and the ridian Refining Master Association occupy the core territory's southwest and southeast, while the Xuanyin Hall and Wuyan Palace divide the core territory's northeast and northwest.
Generally, the four top forces outwardly avoid conflict with one another, maintaining peace, but any secret conflicts remain unknown.
In one of the great halls of the Spirit Fighting Comrce headquarters, an elder with gray hair sat cross-legged. This person is Lu Tianrun, the Vice President of the Spirit Fighting Comrce headquarters. His strength has already reached the first great realm of the Heavenly Rank Third Realm, the Early Stage of Floating Life Realm.
The Seeking Qi, Seeking Origin, and Earth Concealing of the Earth Rank Third Realm respectively represent the application and control of Earth Power. anwhile, the Heavenly Rank Realm similarly has three great realms, naly Floating Life, Lingyun, and Heavenly.
Experts of the Floating Life Realm can already harness the Sky Power, achieving reluctant aerial flight, greatly enhancing their combat power and reactive speed.
Therefore, a Heavenly Rank expert can typically crush an Earth-rank cultivator, even if they are at the Peak of Earth Bending Realm. This is a fundantal difference in realm; the two possess no comparability.
On the Tenglong Continent, heavenly rank experts are a rare sight, much like Vice President Qian Sanyuan of the ridian Refining Master Association who once went to the Hidden Dragon Continent. He was only at the half-step heavenly rank at that ti.
However, thanks to the Heavenly Breath Pill given by Yun Wei, Qian Sanyuan has likely broken through to the Heavenly Rank Third Realm by now, making him comparable to this Vice President of the Spirit Fighting Comrce.
Thud, thud, thud!
In the quiet hall, a sudden sound of footsteps made Vice President Lu Tianrun, who had been ditating with his eyes closed, open them suddenly, his pupils flashing with a gleam.
The newcor was an old man in black, his face covered with wrinkles, but his eyes were sharp and bright, revealing him to be an astute and ruthless individual.
His background was not trivial; he was the leader of the 'Comrce Shadow Guard,' ticulously trained by the Spirit Fighting Comrce, with strength at the peak of the Earth Bending Realm, not far from the half-step heavenly rank level.
However, with Lu Tianrun's status, he had little concern for the identity of the Comrce Shadow Guard leader. As Vice President of the Comrce, he was responsible for these secretive actions, making him the most revered figure in the Spirit Fighting Comrce.
"What happened?"
As Lu Tianrun opened his eyes, he asked directly, but in the next mont, he noticed a trace of resentnt flash across the face of the Comrce Shadow Guard leader, which made his heart stir.
"Vice President, our envoy Xia Yong, sent to Yuyang City, is dead!"
The leader of the Comrce Shadow Guard spoke while opening his right hand, revealing a shattered soul token in his palm, with a faintly visible small "Xia" character on it.
In reality, among these forces on the Tenglong Continent, any important figure would leave a soul token at their family or sect, just in case sothing unexpected happened to them outside, so their life and death wouldn't be unknown.
Just like when Xu Huan's soul token shattered and was discovered by the Spirit Fighting Comrce in Yuyang City imdiately, when Xia Yong died at the hands of Yun Xiao, his soul token also instantly shattered, discovered by the guards protecting the Soul Token Room and reported to the Comrce Shadow Guard leader.
Although a cultivator at the peak of the Seeking Origin Realm wasn't particularly significant to the headquarters of the Spirit Fighting Comrce, Xia Yong was an envoy personally sent by the Vice President, thus the Comrce Shadow Guard leader took the soul token to Vice President Lu Tianrun imdiately.
"Heh, there are actually people bold enough to kill an envoy from our Spirit Fighting Comrce headquarters on this Tenglong Continent!"
From Lu Tianrun's tone, one couldn't discern imnse anger, but the leader of the Comrce Shadow Guard, familiar with his personality, could hear a trace of hidden rage in his cold laughter, thinking that the Vice President was probably genuinely angry this ti.
On the surface, the Spirit Fighting Comrce appears peaceable, but Vice President Lu Tianrun is responsible for dealing with tasks that the Comrce cannot handle openly, such as assassinations and treasure seizures.
Moreover, Xia Yong was dispatched by Lu Tianrun himself, tasked with a special mission, and now he mysteriously died outside. How could this not infuriate him?
For many years, due to the powerful presence of the Spirit Fighting Comrce, even the other three top forces wouldn't easily provoke them, allowing them to beco more arrogant and overbearing.
"Have there been any findings on how he died?"
With certain thoughts swirling in his mind, Lu Tianrun asked in a low voice, though he held little hope because Yuyang City was hundreds of thousands of miles away from the headquarters of the Spirit Fighting Comrce. Only a connected soul token might reveal his death so quickly.
"We only know a rough location; Xia Yong probably died at a place called Thunder Mountain, north of Yuyang City!"
Indeed, the Comrce Shadow Guard leader only provided a vague location. With such a great distance, even if they used a flying beast pulse demon to travel, the murderer would likely have fled long ago.
"Investigate, find out who dared kill our envoy from the Spirit Fighting Comrce headquarters. Even if he flees to the ends of the earth, bring him back to !"
Though without concrete information, Lu Tianrun, as the Vice President overseeing such matters, couldn't let it go. After speaking harshly, he added solemnly, "Recover Xia Yong's waist storage; there's sothing in it that I need!"
It seems this is the real reason Lu Tianrun was eager to find the murderer, as he didn't know whether Xia Yong had completed the special task and obtained the item he needed.
Now that Xia Yong was dead, Lu Tianrun could only start with the murderer; finding and capturing the one who killed Xia Yong might lead him to retrieve what he seeks, leaving no room for overlooking soone bold enough to challenge the Spirit Fighting Comrce's authority.
