Chapter 591: Xuanlong Gate Almost Destroyed
Jiang Feng stopped 10 meters away from Zhang Fei then looked at him with a smile.
All the surrounding players were slightly stunned when they saw him wanting to challenge Zhang Fei, and they then began to laugh.
“You want to challenge him when you are but a Rank Three Lesser Sacred Master? You’ll be killed in one hit!’
“Bro, didn’t you see that? Even Ba Ge had failed, do you think you can do it?”
“It’s fine. Seeing that you might be a m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.t, we’ll guess how many seconds you will survive.”
“3 seconds!”
“I guess that he won’t even be able to survive for 1 second!”
…
Jiang Feng did not care about those people around him laughing at him.
He had heard plenty of those who had laughed at him.
He stood in front of him and said with a smile, “Zhang Fei, begin.”
“Ho ho ho! Such arrogance!”
Zhang Fei screamed out thrice, and red light surrounded his body. He then swung his twin axes and came cras.h.i.+ng toward Jiang Feng.
When he saw Jiang Feng cras.h.i.+ng toward him, Jiang Feng was merely smiling and did not even move.
Boom!
Just as Zhang Fei wanted to get close to Jiang Feng, not only did the twin axes not hit Jiang Feng, they seemed to have crashed into something in the air and he was pushed back.
Whoos.h.!.+
The moment that Zhang Fei stabilized himself, five s.p.a.ce fissures appeared around him and surrounded him tightly.
“Time Strop!”
Just as Zhang Fei was going to escape using a repositioning skill, Jiang Feng used Time Stop and his entire surrounding became quiet. No one was able to even budge a muscle.
Jiang Feng walked toward Zhang Fei and pointed at Zhang Fei’s head with two fingers, “You have lost!”
As soon as he said that, the Time Stop’s effect had ended and Zhang Fei looked at Jiang Feng with horror.
The battle had ended in an instant.
And it did not end with Zhang Fei killing Jiang Feng in a second, but Jiang Feng was the one that had KO’ed him.
“Hahaha! I admit defeat! Boss, I will follow you from now on!” Zhang Fei was also a man of his words, and he would do what he had said.
Since he had lost to Jiang Feng, he naturally became Jiang Feng’s follower.
Ding. System Prompt: Congratulations, you have successfully recruited Zhang Fei.
After recruiting Zhang Fei, he did not pay any attention to all the surprised players around him. He placed Zhang Fei into the Lianyao Flask and then disappeared with the use of the s.p.a.ce s.h.i.+ft skill. In the next second, he appeared right outside the Royal Qin City.
Only after Jiang Feng had disappeared did all the players recover from their shock.
“Who’s that? He’s so powerful! He managed to defeat Zhang Fei in less than three seconds!”
“I don’t know! Someone as powerful as that should have a name on the Four Sacred Leaderboards. But I’ve met everyone on the leaderboard, there’s no one like him!”
“He must be a newly-risen elite. He seemed to have used the Demesne of s.p.a.ce just now. He must be someone that has mastered plenty of the Laws of s.p.a.ce!”
…
Just when all the players were still guessing Jiang Feng’s ident.i.ty, Jiang Feng was looking at the map.
There were five generals near the Royal Qin City.
The five of them had yet to be recruited, so he was going to make some preparations to recruit all five of them.
***
Back in reality.
Yin Sect.
The Divine Dragon Qingqiu had already stayed in this place for half a month.
However, what made him feel annoyed was that he had been asked to stay within an ancient structure in the past half a month, and he was even barred from leaving.
If it were not because Jiang Feng had asked him to investigate the Yin Sect, he would have left angrily already.
The Yin Sect was located within a mountain.
In the mountains, a street had been created.
The street was called the “Heavenbound Street.”
On the two sides of the street were plenty of ancient structures.
These structures were all shops, making them look like a commercial street.
Within the two sides of the streets were plenty of structures that looked like palaces.
These buildings represented the Nine Yin Sects.
And Qingqiu was now in the palace representing Xuanlong Gate.
Once he had arrived at Xuanlong Gate, other than Xiao Chu who had sent him the invitation letter, he had never seen anyone else from the Xuanlong gate.
Qingqiu stood on a tall platform in the Xuanlong Gate’s palace and looked down at Heavenbound Street.
“My apologies, Qingqiu, for having to place you here for a month.” At this time, Xiao Chu came over toward Qingqiu with a faint smile.
Qingqiu then asked Xiao Chu with a frown, “Why is there no one here in the Xuanlong gate after I arrived? Are there only the two of us in the Xuanlong Gate?”
When Qingqiu had said that, Xiao Chu’s expression suddenly became very serious.
In the end, he nodded and said to him, “Originally, there are quite a few of us in Xuanlong Gate. But I have received news that all those from the Xuanlong Gate sent to work on their missions had been killed. If it wasn’t because I went to greet you, the entire Xuanlong Gate would have already been destroyed. That was why I didn’t allow you to leave the Xuanlong Gate’s palace. I was worried that something might happen to you.”
“All dead? What kind of mission would be that dangerous?!” Qingqiu could not believe what he had heard from Xiao Chu.
From what he knew from Xiao Chu, none of those who had joined the Yin Sect were weaklings. Some of them were even more powerful than him.
But he did not understand what else in this world could have threatened them so.
“I do not know,” Xiao Chu shook his head and continued, “After I brought you here, I have been investigating this. But I only found one small clue.”
“What clue?”
“Diw.a.n.g Gate and Paradise’s Gate also joined this mission. While they had also made some great losses, but they did have a few that came back alive. I might be able to hear something from them. However, the chances of that are quite slim. Maybe, we even have to pay a heavy price for that!”
Xiao Chu, who was originally quite spirited, suddenly felt quite helpless. The hair to the side of his head had even become much greyer.
When Qingqiu saw Xiao Chu like that, all he could do was ask, “What kind of place is the Yin Sect? Why are there such dangerous missions? I have observed this world, and the most powerful of us are the Grand Masters achieving Greater Completion. What else is there that can threaten us?”
Xiao Chu shook his head with a bitter smile. “There are so many humans living on Earth, and we have lived on this planet for at least five to six thousand years, there would naturally be plenty of species, people, and supernatural events that are quite wondrous. These wondrous things… some are extremely powerful, some cannot be opposed. No matter how powerful humans are, we are not able to fight them.”
“In truth, the Yin Sect is supported by all the countries to manage things that even the countries themselves couldn’t do!”
“For example, all those that managed to step onto the Moon in Chinese history. Those who had appeared on the news were just a misdirection. Each time they were sent to the moon, someone from the Yin Sect would hide in the rocket to deal with things that were not from Earth.”
“For example, the lake monster from another country. Or the sea monster. All the news would report and explain them using science. But those monsters are all real, except that they had all been captured or killed by the Yin Gate!”
“Now, do you know why none of us are too surprised about your ident.i.ty as a dragon?”
Qingqiu shook his head.
“Because we have met with other dragons!” Xiao Chu said as he stared at Qingqiu.
