“Valley Master! We have found Feng Wuchen’s whereabouts, he’s in Jiuzhou Sangyun City!”

In the grand hall of Zangling Valley, a disciple respectfully reported.

“Sangyun City?” Beiming Kong’s eyes slightly narrowed, flashing with a terrifying murderous intent, he coldly said, “To Sangyun City!”

An extremely intimidating murderous aura spread out, and judging by Beiming Kong’s stance, he seemed to be planning on taking action himself.

“Valley Master! When we located Feng Wuchen, he was indeed in Sangyun City, but now it’s hard to say, we didn’t dare to follow him,” the disciple said with some fear.

Beiming Kong coldly stated, “He absolutely can’t have gone far! Search within a thousand miles of Sangyun City! We must drag that little bastard out!”

“Since Feng Wuchen appeared in Sangyun City, he can’t have gone far!” the Elder roared angrily, recalling how he had been severely injured by Feng Wuchen; anger burned within him.

“Sangyun City is not far from Divine Pill City, pass the message to the Shen Dan Masters, have them send someone to search for Feng Wuchen!” Beiming Kong coldly ordered.

The Elder, although wary of Feng Wuchen’s terrifying soul power, still had to retrieve some face.

“Yes!” the disciple said respectfully and hastened out of the grand hall.

Beiming Kong and the high-ranking members of the valley flashed into the sky, flying rapidly toward Sangyun City.

As long as there was news of Feng Wuchen, they would not miss the chance, even if they couldn’t find Feng Wuchen for the time being, they would at least narrow down the search area.

After Ling Xiaoxiao successfully returned to the Empire with Feng Zhengxiong and Xiao Qingqing, she hurried back to Jiuzhou at the first opportunity.

With Feng Wuchen alone in Jiuzhou, Ling Xiaoxiao was truly worried.

Ling Xiaoxiao could sense the Dragon Clan bloodline in Feng Wuchen’s body; she knew where he was.

…

In the grand hall of Xiewang Sect, Sect Master Xiehun and other high-ranking members, as well as powerhouses like Huangfu Tianba, convened.

“A Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner capable of ‘Thought-Forming Instrumentation,’ is indeed a very terrifying talent, but unfortunately, he killed Beiming Kong, and Beiming River seems to be coming out of seclusion,” Xiehun shook his head and said.

“Beiming River!” Upon hearing that entire name, the high-ranking members of the grand hall of Xiewang Sect couldn’t help but display a look of terror and apprehension in their eyes.

Xiehun frowned slightly, and said, “Beiming River’s strength may have already surpassed Beiming Kong’s; even our sect cannot claim to defeat him. Among his peers, Beiming River is probably the first person to break through to the Sixth Layer of the Tianyuan Realm. His strength is such that even the Nangong family and Fenglan Sect hold some fear of him.”

After pausing, Xiehun continued, “Xiao Tianchen, that old fool, is utterly stupid. To have such a genius grandson and not acknowledge him — by now, he’s probably regretting it to the point where his guts are turning green. If it were up to our sect, we would never make such foolish mistakes.”

Huangfu Yunzhong slightly frowned, giving Xiehun a glance, and silently thought, “This old fellow better not be having second thoughts.”

Huangfu Yunzhong was worried that Xiehun had taken a liking to Feng Wuchen and, if turned against them, it could backfire greatly.

Although Xiewang Sect was a pillar of support for the Huangfu family, it was necessary to remain guarded.

“This commotion from Zangling Valley isn’t small, and the Shen Dan Masters will not sit idly by either. Perhaps we can use their power to eliminate Feng Wuchen, but this young man won’t be so easily dealt with,” Huangfu Tianba thought to himself, his expression extremely grave.

“Brother Huangfu, maybe we don’t need to take action ourselves; Feng Wuchen may die at the hands of Beiming Kong. No matter how strong Feng Wuchen is, he is absolutely no match for Beiming Kong,” Xiehun said with a smile, but it seemed to hide a knife in it.

“Let’s hope so,” Huangfu Tianba nodded, but he still felt uneasy at heart.

After glancing at Huangfu Tianba’s expression, Xiehun thought to himself, “With such a terrifying talent and also a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner, if we could control him, Xiewang Sect could use Feng Wuchen’s artifact refining skills to dominate Jiuzhou. However, this matter mustn’t be rushed. With Beiming Kong’s anger flaring, stepping in now could easily offend Zangling Valley. Let’s secure the Huangfu family treasure first.”

So it seemed Xiewang Sect had interests to consider in helping the Huangfu family.

…

Beiming Kong and the Zangling Valley high-ranking members had already arrived at Sangyun City, a terrifying pressure enveloped from high above, sending shivers down the spines of everyone in Sangyun City.

“Search for him!” Beiming Kong commanded with venom, his overwhelming murderous aura nearly blanketing the entire Sangyun City.

Zangling Valley’s many powerful forces spread through Sangyun City, even to the cities around it, with a frightening presence that wasn’t held back at all. The people of Sangyun City hid in terror.

Not many could withstand the fury of Beiming Kong.

“Zangling Valley’s Beiming Kong!”

“What… what a terrifying murderous intent!”

“Who is the person in the portrait? To actually kill the young Valley Master of Zangling Valley, they’ve doomed us all!”

The people of Sangyun City were engulfed in fear, as no one could bear the horrifying murderous intent of Beiming Kong.

Meanwhile, Zangling Valley disciples scattered across various places in Jiuzhou began to converge on Sangyun City at full speed.

To inspire Zangling Valley to mobilize their entire force was indeed an honor for Feng Wuchen.

In Divine Pill City, He Tianxiong was already leading many powerful forces toward Sangyun City.

With Moyan’s call, numerous strong individuals volunteered their aid, forming a quite substantial group, with thousands of people that continued to grow.

If they could assist Moyan in finding Feng Wuchen, they were certain to receive generous rewards.

Of course, rewards were secondary; what mattered was forging a good relationship with Moyan.

A large number of powerful warriors poured into Sangyun City, making a huge commotion. Coupled with Beiming Kong’s terrifying murderous aura, a large number of the cultivators in Sangyun City fled in fear.

Practitioners from other cities also hurriedly fled in terror, not wanting to invite a fatal disaster upon themselves.

Everyone knew that Beiming Kong, Beiming Kong’s beloved grandson, was untouchable in Jiuzhou, unless one no longer wished to live.

The news of Beiming Kong’s death had already spread throughout Jiuzhou, and it was not surprising that Beiming Kong was enraged.

“`

Who would dare to provoke a raging tiger?

Unaware of the outside world’s affairs, Feng Wuchen was still cultivating within the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower.

Although Feng Wuchen was not in Sangyun City, the distance wasn’t far, he was hidden in a cave in the deep mountains cultivating; finding him was as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

Within the seventh level of the tower, Feng Wuchen’s body continued to swell, his cultivation advancing rapidly as he practiced frenziedly.

As time went by day after day, Sangyun City and the surrounding towns were searched thoroughly, yet Feng Wuchen’s figure was nowhere to be found.

After several days, within a thousand miles, all the cities and small towns were searched to no avail. The disciples of Zangling Valley were exhausted.

Feng Wuchen seemed to have evaporated from the world.

Feng Wuchen was a Tianyuan Realm powerhouse, and many disciples speculated that he must’ve fled early on.

Who would be so foolish to stay behind and wait for death?

Not finding Feng Wuchen was not only a waste of several days, but it also enraged Beiming Kong so much so that his lungs were about to explode.

It had been challenging enough to locate Feng Wuchen in Sangyun City, and now the trail had gone cold.

“That cunning brat!” Beiming Kong’s fierce old face, like that of an enraged beast, caused fear in all who saw him.

Even if they couldn’t find Feng Wuchen, the disciples of Zangling Valley had to continue the search, even if it meant digging three feet into the ground, Beiming Kong was determined to drag Feng Wuchen out.

Atop a building in Sangyun City, Huangfu Yunzhong frowned and said, “Has Feng Wuchen run away?”

“Feng Wuchen’s movement technique is extremely powerful, and it’s not easy to catch him, especially now that he has broken through to the Tianyuan Realm and even managed to kill Beiming Kong,” Huangfu Tianba shook his head.

Recalling how Feng Wuchen mysteriously appeared and then miraculously vanished, Huangfu Tianba was extremely wary of him.

“Could it be that Feng Wuchen is hiding somewhere to cultivate?” An elder guessed worriedly, furrowing his brow.

They had all witnessed Feng Wuchen’s terrible talent for cultivation; if Feng Wuchen made another breakthrough, he would become even more difficult to deal with.

Huangfu Tianba solemnly said, “We must not act rashly until the last moment.”

Huangfu Tianba’s caution showed how well he understood the difficulty of dealing with Feng Wuchen.

…

In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.

Jiuzhou did not calm down with the passage of time, on the contrary, the situation worsened.

Feng Wuchen’s killing of Beiming Kong infuriated Beiming Kong’s elders and forced Beiming Kong’s father, Beiming River, out of seclusion.

In Jiuzhou, everyone knew Beiming River and his fearsome reputation that shook the region.

With a terrifying level of power at the Fifth Grade of the Tianyuan Realm, there were hardly more than five peers who could contend with him.

The news of Beiming River emerging from seclusion spread quickly, sending shockwaves across Jiuzhou.

All the powers in Jiuzhou changed their expressions upon hearing that Beiming River had come out of seclusion!

After a month of relentless searching throughout Jiuzhou, Feng Wuchen’s whereabouts remained undiscovered.

As a result, after Beiming River emerged from seclusion to avenge his son, he ordered Zangling Valley to strike at the Flame Fire Empire at all costs to avenge Beiming Kong.

Zangling Valley’s strength was formidable; they did not take the Flame Fire Empire seriously at all.

Beiming River wanted to cleanse the Feng family with blood and also slaughter the Flame Fire Empire; he decided to completely uproot the Flame Fire Empire.

In the grand hall of Zangling Valley, a terrifying murderous aura filled the air. It was Beiming River’s murderous intent!

No one in the hall dared to speak. Even Beiming Kong did not make a sound, his old face filled with self-reproach and anger; failing to protect Beiming Kong, Beiming Kong felt he was partly responsible.

Beiming River was as fearsome as Beiming Kong!

In Jiuzhou, the reputation of Beiming River was enough to terrify anyone.

“Since Feng Wuchen is the Grand Commander of the Flame Fire Empire, is he afraid not to show up? How foolish, wasting so much time!” Beiming River coldly shouted, his face cold and gloomy.

No one in the upper echelons of Zangling Valley dared to speak, no one dared to touch Beiming River’s wrath!

Beiming Kong blamed himself, saying, “It’s all my fault for being careless and harming my child.”

“All disciples of Zangling Valley heed my command! Exterminate the Flame Fire Empire! I want the whole of the Flame Fire Empire to be a funeral offering for my child!” Beiming River roared with an authoritative anger that echoed throughout Zangling Valley.

The terrifying murderous aura swept out from the grand hall, frightening all the disciples.

Beiming River said grimly, “I want to see if Feng Wuchen really has three heads and six arms! Daring to kill my son, I will eradicate him completely!”

“Reporting to the Sect Master! We… we’ve found Feng Wuchen!” Just after Beiming River gave his orders, a man rushed in, shivering under Beiming River’s terrifying murderous intent as he panickedly reported.

“Where is he!” Beiming River shouted furiously, his eyes sweeping towards the man with an unmatched ferocity, his murderous intent surging twofold.

“In… in Divine Pill City!” the man replied in terror, trembling all over.

“Divine Pill City!” Beiming River flashed and disappeared with a frightening speed!

“To Divine Pill City!” Beiming Kong shouted grimly, and his figure vanished following Beiming River, with the higher-ups of Zangling Valley setting out in a flurry.
