Chapter 345 - 182: Shocking Return, Wei Fan Don’t Be Impulsive_2
However, Yun City doesn’t look too good at the moment, with half of its city wall collapsed, as if it had been attacked, and countless houses have also fallen within the city.
Ning Xuan sighed: "Those damned beasts from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, they dared to attack ordinary people!"
Li Fengyi’s eyes revealed a murderous intent: "They are just taking revenge on Wei Fan. Since Yun City is Wei Fan’s hometown and they couldn’t find him, they vent their anger here. I just hope he can hold it in."
Su Xuerong’s eyes flashed coldly: "If he doesn’t act on impulse, then he isn’t Wei Fan. They are walking down a path of destruction. By pushing Wei Fan like this, eventually, he will annihilate them!"
Ning Xuan suddenly widened his eyes: "Wei Fan?"
In the next moment, a figure descended, and who else could it be but Wei Fan.
Wei Fan looked at the collapsed houses and city wall around him, his brows furrowed deeply: "You’re saying this was done by the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold?"
Ning Xuan and the others exchanged glances, with Li Fengyi speaking anxiously: "Wei Fan, don’t act rashly. The people of the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold are afraid of you. They fear you will mature and seek revenge, so you must hold back!"
At the battle of Eagle’s Woe Cliff, Wei Fan caused martial arts levels in the Great Victory Dynasty to decline for decades, and he also terrified all his enemies.
Those without the ability could only pray that Wei Fan wouldn’t come to take revenge, while those with ability were restless, using various means to force Wei Fan out, giving him no chance to grow.
However, Wei Fan’s only relative was already secretly relocated by Huo Tianzheng when he was temporarily acting as Commander, and now not even Wei Fan knows where.
Ning Xuan stepped forward: "Good brother, with your talent, endure a few years and you will surely sweep the world. Don’t fall for their trap — the more they push, the more it shows they fear you!"
None of them expected the vanished Wei Fan to appear in Yun City, and they all stepped forward to urge him to endure.
Wei Fan shook his head: "No need. I have become a Martial Venerable. Tell me, who has been showing themselves recently!"
Boom!
His words were like a thunderclap, shaking Li Fengyi and the others to the core.
Ning Xuan was shocked: "You... you became a Martial Venerable?"
The scene where he and Su Xuerong first met Wei Fan in Yun City seemed just like yesterday, and now he himself was only at the Fourth Level of Acupoint Opening, while Wei Fan had reached Martial Venerable.
In an instant, Ning Xuan’s mind was in turmoil.
Li Fengyi appeared excited: "Good, worthy of our captain. Now, those trying to provoke you are going to regret it."
Su Xuerong was also excited: "Better not let those beasts off lightly. They’ve turned Su City upside down recently."
Hearing this, Wei Fan frowned: "What about the Commander? And Elder Huo? With the two Martial Venerables guarding Su City, is it still chaotic?"
Li Fengyi sighed: "Although Su City has two Martial Venerables, Commander and Elder Huo, they only recently broke through. An extremely terrifying Martial Venerable expert from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, Martial Dao Hong, seriously injured both of them.
If General Pei Shinan hadn’t arrived, it’s hard to predict what could have happened.
Though that beast didn’t attack the Commander and Elder Huo again, he did destroy Su City’s gates with one palm.
Recently, there have been many bandits from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold robbing ordinary citizens in Su City, claiming they won’t leave as long as you remain in hiding."
The cold light in Wei Fan’s eyes intensified; the actions of the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold were indeed despicable, stopping at nothing. No wonder even the Great Victory Dynasty dared not provoke these bandits.
Martial Dao Hong!
From the name, it seemed related to Wu Shiping, perhaps even Wu Shiping’s father, one of the leaders of the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold.
Ning Xuan added: "Martial Dao Hong is still here, blocking the entrance of Su City, preventing the Demon Suppression Bureau experts from intervening in the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold’s plunder, leaving even the General helpless.
They’ve declared that if the Demon Suppression Bureau intervenes, more Martial Venerable experts from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold will arrive."
The Demon Suppression Bureau only kills Demon Fiends; the bandits of the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold do not fall within their jurisdiction.
Of course, the main reason is still the terrifying strength of the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, which can intimidate even Pei Shinan, making Long Jianying and Huo Tianzheng bow their heads.
As a force rampant among several surrounding dynasties, the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold certainly doesn’t have just one Martial Venerable.
And the purpose of all this was to force Wei Fan out.
"Good! Still here!"
Wei Fan’s explosive killing intent became uncontrollable.
The next moment, without even bidding farewell to Li Fengyi and the others, his figure shot into the sky, disappearing from their sight in an instant.
...
Su City, Demon Suppression Bureau, Commander’s Hall.
Long Jianying’s breath was weak, his face pale as paper, with a few crack-like wounds on his body.
It’s only been two or three years since he broke through to Martial Venerable, and he hadn’t completed even the first forging of the Golden Body. This time, the expert from the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold was not a mere two-colored Golden Body weakling like Blood Venerable but a true expert.
He and Huo Tianzheng, who had just entered the Golden Body Realm as Martial Venerables, were no match for the expert.
If the people of the Prisoner Dragon Stronghold did not have their own concerns and dared not actually kill them, he and Huo Tianzheng would likely have been killed.
"When do you think that kid will become a Martial Venerable and return?"
Golden light flowed around Huo Tianzheng, who was forging his Golden Body, and a barely noticeable golden hue began to appear on his skin.
At this rate, it would take at least ten years for him to complete the first forging of his Golden Body.
Long Jianying sighed: "With his talent, breaking through to Martial Venerable might only take a dozen days or so, but forging a Golden Body is not an overnight task. It’s better he returns later, or else he’ll surely fight to the death given his personality."
He thought of that terrifying Great Golden Bell.
With the power of that Great Golden Bell, killing Martial Dao Hong wouldn’t be difficult.
But without solid personal strength, revealing treasures is courting death. Just one Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill brought so much trouble. If the existence of that Great Golden Bell became known, the trouble would be even greater.
Huo Tianzheng: "Unless he avoids all contact, this matter won’t be delayed for long. Cultivate, and hope to help the kid when he returns.
In my Divine Realm days, I was invincible, but after becoming a Martial Venerable, I’ve been forced into the shell of a coward."
Long Jianying felt the same as Huo Tianzheng.
In the Divine Realm, they were top dogs, thinking that becoming a Martial Venerable would make life easier. But after reaching Martial Venerable, they found themselves at the bottom of the hierarchy. Apart from two-colored Golden Body weaklings like Blood Venerable, they couldn’t beat anyone and didn’t even have the qualification to fight desperately.
"Hmm..."
As Long Jianying was about to nod, he suddenly sensed a fluctuation in the air, as the Power of Heaven and Earth began to become active quickly.
"A Martial Venerable expert is rapidly approaching Su City!"
The two exchanged glances, instantly understanding what happened.
Such a disturbance could only be caused by the unrestrained release of aura by a Martial Venerable expert, causing a ripple in the Power of Heaven and Earth from a great distance.
The two figures flickered and appeared above the Demon Suppression Bureau, looking into the distance, where they saw what looked like an additional sun in the sky, a figure covered in dazzling golden light speeding towards Su City.
Long Jianying took a breath of cold air, exclaiming in shock: "A six-colored Golden Body!"
With the intermingling of golden light, a six-colored halo appeared behind this figure, illuminating them like a divine mansion, exuding supreme sanctity.
Huo Tianzheng was also full of shock: "What kind of demon is this? How could there be someone in the world who has cultivated a six-colored Golden Body!"
His Golden Body had just begun to take shape, but like most Martial Venerables, he had only the common three-colored Golden Body.
"Who is this? When did such a six-colored Golden Body demon appear in any of the nearby dynasties?"
Outside Su City, Martial Dao Hong, who was blocking the way, also noticed the approaching six-colored Golden Body Martial Venerable, his face full of shock.
"Hmm? Something’s not right!"
Very quickly, Martial Dao Hong noticed something was off.
He thought the other party was just passing by or perhaps headed for Su City.
But as they approached Su City, the figure clearly adjusted direction, flying directly towards him.
"Coming for me?"
On the mountain top, Martial Dao Hong stood up.
As the six-colored Golden Body got closer, he saw inside was a very young man.
Immediately he clasped his fists and asked, "May I ask what advice you have, fellow Daoist?"
The radiant Golden Body stopped a few hundred meters away, with a cold and indifferent expression, even a hint of iciness.
Seeing this, Martial Dao Hong became secretly vigilant, sensing the ill intent of the visitor.
Wei Fan’s voice was cold: "I’m here to borrow something from you!"
The panel before him began to flicker:
[Martial Dao Hong: Golden Body Third Forging, Dragon Head of Prisoner Dragon Stronghold, capable of all evils]
[Kill him to gain 20,000 years of Ordinary Power, 30 years of Spirit Soul Power]
