King of Creation-Chapter 747 - 737 Changes in the Divine Sect
Chapter 747: Chapter 737 Changes in the Divine Sect
Hu Qingtong and the Long-Armed Fire Monkey King had not left long before Ye Zhen also departed, riding the newly empowered Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, without even a surplus of instructions.
Professional matters should be handled by professionals, and entrusting the reconstruction of the Beast Taming Sect to Yangh Yiguan was most appropriate.
Yangh Yiguan had dedicated nearly a hundred years to this cause, plotting in secret for decades; he was undoubtedly the most efficient choice for reconstructing the Beast Taming Sect.
Before Ye Zhen left, Yangh Yiguan had already sent out nearly a thousand Dao Talisman Communications to call back the sect members.
In Yangh Yiguan’s words, due to the mysterious obliteration of the Beast Taming Sect, he had lived in constant trepidation over the years, fearing that the same calamity might befall him someday.
Thus, the disciples he kept close were not all he had; apart from the meticulously trained Ma Yue, many other outstanding disciples selected by him were cultivated to a certain extent and then dispersed to merge with local forces or to cultivate independently across various regions.
This was to ensure that if he met with an unfortunate accident, there would remain a glimmer of legacy for the Beast Taming Sect.
So it might seem that all the disciples Yangh Yiguan had by his side had perished, but he had personally trained more than fifty talented direct disciples from the Beast Taming Sect.
With casual guidance over a month or two and passing down one or two Cultivation Technique Manuals, he had over three hundred ordinary disciples, and he even granted those direct disciples the right to take on their own disciples, many of whom he met and advised from time to time.
Actually, there were over a thousand disciples of the Beast Taming Sect scattered throughout various regions, and Yangh Yiguan planned to first use these martial artists as a foundation to rapidly enhance the sect’s strength.
Among his fifty direct disciples, all had reached Soul Sea Realm, and six had recently broken through to the Vein Forging Realm, though they were still inferior to Ma Yue.
However, because the key factor in a disciple’s strength in the unique cultivation techniques of the Beast Taming Sect was the grade of the Demon Beasts, as long as these disciples were in place, along with the million Demon Beasts on Ten Thousand Beast Plain, the Beast Taming Sect could grow into a force that could not be ignored in a short time.
Ye Zhen believed that good news would not take long to arrive.
As for controlling the Beast Taming Sect, Ye Zhen was not worried at all, unless Yangh Yiguan no longer wished to live.
Hence, Ye Zhen was very relaxed about this matter. However, Yangh Yiguan, who was bound by Ye Zhen’s soul enslavement, dared not show Ye Zhen any disrespect.
During the fifteen days of Ye Zhen’s journey, Yangh Yiguan had already sent three Dao Talisman Marks to Ye Zhen, reporting on the reconstruction of the Beast Taming Sect, almost once every five days.
By the fifth day, Yangh Yiguan had already completed the entire reconstruction plan of the Beast Taming Sect. By the tenth day, over a hundred nearby disciples had arrived, and he had recruited ten thousand civilians with a heavy reward.
By the fifteenth day, three hundred disciples had arrived, and the number of civilians participating in the reconstruction of the Beast Taming Sect had exceeded fifty thousand. Over a hundred ordinary buildings had been constructed, and the Grand Formation for sect protection was beginning to take shape!
As for expenses, the ground of the Ten Thousand Beast Valley of the Beast Taming Sect was strewn with treasures, not to mention the private assets accumulated by Yangh Yiguan over the years; in any case, not a single penny of Ye Zhen’s money was spent. Moreover, Ye Zhen was still eyeing the nearly million Heavenly Level Demon Beasts on the Ten Thousand Beast Plain.
Killing another forty to fifty thousand of them, perhaps the kitten could be promoted to a Mid-grade Spirit Beast.
However, it must be said that, with the increase in rank to the Spirit Tier, the resources required for the kitten’s advancement had increased a hundredfold.
Of course, if Ye Zhen insisted, Yangh Yiguan had no right to object. The main reason Ye Zhen did not persist was that the kitten’s power was increasing too rapidly, and it needed a process to adapt and harness its strength.
Nine days ago, the kitten had carelessly scratched Ye Zhen’s back, accidentally hurling him four to five miles away. Not only did he break a bone, but he also spat out several mouthfuls of fresh blood.
Through the journey’s adaptation, the kitten’s control over its strength had improved a lot. Although it was not yet capable of gently dressing Ye Zhen as before, the incidents of it accidentally sending Ye Zhen flying would no longer occur.
On the journey there, Ye Zhen and Fengh Qingyue had ridden together, taking eighteen days. On the way back, Ye Zhen had arrived near Lanshan in just fifteen days. Here, he could already see the vast Qinglan Martial City from high above, less than two thousand miles from Qinglan Martial City.
Actually, if not for training the kitten and allowing it to adapt to its surged strength, the time it would have taken Ye Zhen to return could have been halved with plenty to spare.
Seeing Qinglan Martial City, Ye Zhen suddenly felt a kind of homesickness, though not the true sort, but rather a worry about how to face Fengh Qingyue.
How to explain or clarify this matter to Fengh Qingyue?
Or should he simply choose to be carelessly unapologetic?
On the way, Ye Zhen had sent no fewer than five Talisman Communications to Fengh Qingyue, each flying in the direction of Qinglan Martial City. However, there had been no response at all!
As they neared Qinglan Martial City, the sky became busier, with figures flying through and Talisman Light sweeping across the sky; Ye Zhen slightly slowed his pace.
In broad daylight, there was no need to be so spectacularly astonishing. After all, the flying speed of the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten was now incredibly fast, likely faster than that of an average Establishment King.
Whoosh!
Just as Ye Zhen slowed down, a green streak of light suddenly shot from behind, about a dozen miles away, and thundered toward Ye Zhen.
Almost the moment the streak appeared, the majestic Purple Jade Battle Armor enveloped Ye Zhen’s body, an unnameable evil Qi emanating from around him, as a fierce light exploded in his eyes.
His strength had broken through to the peak of the Third Stage of the Vein Forging Realm and had never been truly showcased, while Wang Xiaomao’s power had soared from the upper-grade Earth Level straight to the low-grade Spirit Tier, signifying a monumental change in combat power.
It was good enough that he did not provoke others, yet upon his recent return, someone had actively provoked him—were they not courting death?
Just as Ye Zhen was preparing to ruthlessly teach the assailant a lesson, his brow furrowed slightly.
This Talisman Light rushing toward him was somewhat peculiar.
It turned out to be a Purple Jade Token without any Divine Sense or content imprinted on it, utterly lacking in any offensive power. At most, it had just given Ye Zhen a scare.
"What does this mean?"
Ye Zhen stood puzzled on the spot for several breaths; soon after, in the distance, precisely from the direction of the blank Talisman Communication had come, a figure suddenly appeared.
The moment he clearly saw who it was, Ye Zhen’s gaze froze, "Zuo Xiong?"
A few breaths later, Zuo Xiong, panting heavily, arrived in front of Ye Zhen with a face flushed red—a clear sign of his Spiritual Power being pushed to its limits.
"Hall Master Ye, your speed is too fast, isn’t it? I couldn’t catch up to you at all. If it hadn’t been for that Talisman Communication to stop you, I wouldn’t have been able to catch you!" Zuo Xiong said while gasping for air.
Ye Zhen was somewhat puzzled, "Chasing me?"
"Not just chasing you. I specifically arranged for hundreds of brothers here on the return route to Qinglan Martial City in the airspace, who patrolled day and night for almost half a month before they spotted you.
I didn’t expect that just after I received their Talisman Communication, you disappeared, and it scared me to death! How can your demon servant move so fast?"
Zuo Xiong’s breathing gradually eased, but Ye Zhen’s expression turned somewhat solemn, "You’ve been blocking me here for half a month, has something happened in the Divine Sect?"
"Not just something; a big trouble indeed!" Zuo Xiong said gravely.
"About twenty-three days ago, not long after you and Master Fengh left Qinglan Martial City, Gan Rusong, the Peak Master of the Profound Moon Sect’s Elder Peak, came to cause trouble!" Zuo Xiong explained.
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen’s expression changed, "Profound Moon Sect, Gan Rusong?"
"Yes, Gan Rusong’s identity is significant. The Profound Moon Sect itself is ranked third among the major forces in the entire True Spirit Domain, and his status as the Peak Master of the Elder Peak is well-respected throughout the True Spirit Domain. He himself is an Establishment King!" Zuo Xiong continued.
"What did he come for?" Ye Zhen could already guess Gan Rusong’s intention.
Zuo Xiong looked up at Ye Zhen with some admiration, "He came to cause trouble for you, Hall Master Ye. He claimed that you killed their Profound Moon Sect’s True Disciple, Lul Xiao, and even caused the death of Elder Yub Daqian of their Elder Peak. He demanded that the Divine Sect hand you and your accomplices over!"
At this, Zuo Xiong’s expression suddenly became extremely furious, "You don’t know how arrogant that guy was! Gan Rusong that old ghost didn’t even step onto the Divine Sect’s doorstep; he just showed his face in Qinglan Martial City,
and then let one of his Elder Peak elders named Fangg Lifeng, carrying his name card, march arrogantly into the Divine Sect demanding audaciously that the Sect hand you over to them for disposal!
You should have seen the scene at that time. A man at the peak of the Sixth Stage of the Vein Forging Realm, just with a name card, walked unhindered within the Divine Sect; no one dared to block him. If it weren’t for Elder Tus of the Punishment Hall who stepped in, and you weren’t there, those guys might have really handed you over!
Especially Head of the Inner Affairs Hall Zhu Ling and Vice Sect Hierarch Yao Sen, you should have seen them, all smiles and greetings, almost ready to bow on the spot."
"Zhu Ling? Yao Sen?"
Upon hearing this, a cold smile appeared on Ye Zhen’s lips. This was to be expected, wasn’t it? Putting others aside, just take Zhu Ling; if someone asked, he would probably sell out Ye Zhen, right?
"What happened then? Did the Sect Hierarch come out, what was his attitude?" Ye Zhen asked.
Not long after Elder Tus of the Punishment Hall sternly rebuked them, the Sect Hierarch came out. That day, his attitude was very firm; not only did he reprimand that Fangg Lifeng, but he also firmly rejected his disrespectful demand and drove him out of the Main Temple of the Divine Sect.
Ye Zhen’s expression relaxed, that was more like it, as long as Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong didn’t say anything, nobody else mattered.
Just as this thought arose, Ye Zhen’s expression changed, something was wrong.
If the Sect Hierarch had firmly rejected them that day, then Zuo Xiong shouldn’t be here now, making such an effort to block him as a warning.
Sure enough, Zuo Xiong spoke up.
"But what’s important isn’t that. Seven days after Fangg Lifeng was driven away, Fangg Lifeng came back, and this time, he brought a large number of troops with him!"
Ye Zhen’s expression abruptly tightened, "What, they attacked the Divine Sect?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets on qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
