This was the first time that people in this region had heard of Chu Yunfan's existence. Chu Yunfan's strength had caused many people to tremble in fear.
After the Scarlet Sun City Lord had broken through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm, he had gone crazy.
He had led the Scarlet Sun City to battle everywhere.
Moreover, Chu Yunfan's strength was above that of the Scarlet Sun City's City Lord. If Chu Yunfan were to lead Ruofeng City on a crusade against the Scarlet Sun City, he would most likely cause an even greater disaster than the Scarlet Sun City Lord.
Fortunately, Chu Yunfan did not seem to be too interested in this. After pacifying the Scarlet Sun City, he immediately went into seclusion.
In the blink of an eye, a year had passed!
After a year of reorganization, Windswept City had more or less taken over the territories and powers of the original cities. Its strength had undergone a tremendous change.
However, everyone knew that this was all because of the existence of Chu Yunfan!
Without Chu Yunfan overseeing things, such a large territory would collapse in a short period of time.
Only a Quasi-Emperor would be able to defend such a territory!
Fortunately, they heaved a sigh of relief when Chu Yunfan didn't seem to do anything else after that.
He immediately went into seclusion in Windswept City.
Without Chu Yunfan's support, it was impossible for Windswept City to continue expanding even if it wanted to.
Without Chu Yunfan's support, Windswept City's strength simply did not have an overwhelming advantage.
It seemed that there was someone specifically maintaining the balance between the various cities in this region. This was to prevent any particular power from becoming too powerful and causing the region to lose its balance.
Even if the upper echelons of the various powers were not Quasi-Emperors, they were still the cream of the crop.
Many people could not break through not because they did not have enough aptitude, but because they did not have any cultivation techniques that they could use to advance.
This was also why the top experts usually came from the 10 great powers. They had the backing of the 10 Emperor Realm experts who could provide them with a complete set of cultivation techniques.
This was why those Peak King Realm experts could break through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm!
Although there were countless experts in Windlike City, and the city lord, Zhao Junchen, was an expert at the pinnacle of the Immortal King Realm, in the eyes of the ten great powers, he could only be considered a rogue cultivator.
Without a doubt, Chu Yunfan could be considered an expert among the rogue cultivators.
On this day, a tall and burly middle-aged man dressed in battle robes arrived at the Windlike City.
The Castellan of Ruofeng City, Zhao Junchen, immediately came forward to welcome him. With a respectful expression, he said, "Greetings, Lord Wu Zheng!"
The middle-aged man glanced at Zhao Junchen and went to the main seat.
As the host, Zhao Junchen could only sit back and do nothing. There was only one reason. This Wu Zhan was an expert in the Quasi-Emperor Realm. Behind him stood a powerful sect, the Witchcraft Sect.
More accurately speaking, it was a powerful race, the Wizard Tribe!
This race fought against the heavens and the earth, and was already a very powerful race in the distant past. Now, it was even one of the rare ten major forces in the Ancient World.
Not to mention the Witchcraft Sect, even if it was Wu Zhan himself, it would be a piece of cake for him to wipe out the entire Ruofeng City.
"May I know why Lord Wu Zhan has come this time?" Zhao Junchen asked hurriedly.
As the Castellan of Ruofeng City, who had been struggling to survive between the Evil God Society and the Witchcraft Sect, Zhao Junchen was already used to all of this.
The Witchcraft Sect and the Evil God Society, these two powerful forces, could easily crush Ruofeng City with just a finger.
"Cut the crap, I won't beat around the bush with you. I heard that your Ruofeng City has invited an ancient self-proclaimed Quasi-Emperor?" Wu Zhan said.
He did not think that there was anything strange about an ancient self-proclaimed Quasi-Emperor. In fact, such things were common in the Ancient World.
If there was a day in the future when he felt that he did not have much hope of advancing, but he did not want to die of old age, the chances of him choosing to seal himself was also very high.
Under such circumstances, he naturally did not think that there was anything strange about Chu Yunfan's words.
"Yes, that is our Elder Chu!" Zhao Junchen hurriedly said.
"Mm, I don't care where he came from. I only have one thing to tell you. Now, our Witchcraft Sect wants to recruit your Elder Chu into the Witchcraft Sect! You don't have any objections, right? "Wu Zhan said calmly. He glanced at Zhao Junchen, and instantly, Zhao Junchen felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
He knew that if he said no, he would immediately die in the hands of the Wu Zhan.
The difference in status and power between both parties was too great!
Zhao Junchen could not help but reveal a bitter smile. Indeed, the rumors were true.
Among the many powers in this area, there was a rumor that this area was a buffer zone intentionally created by the Evil God Society and the Witchcraft Sect to prevent an intense conflict between the two parties.
And the two great powers were also well aware of this. They absolutely forbade anyone from changing the current situation of this area.
Every time a Quasi-Emperor appeared in this area, after a period of time, this Quasi-Emperor would mysteriously disappear. Either he would join the Evil God Society or the Witchcraft Sect, or he would disappear without a trace.
Every power was well aware of this news. The reason for such an outcome was obviously because of the interference of the two great powers.
They had always controlled the highest level of power in this area to be at the pinnacle of the King Realm.
However, a Quasi-Emperor had obviously broken the balance. A Quasi-Emperor could rule over the entire area. Although to the two great powers, it was still insignificant, as it was still an ant that could be crushed to death with a finger.
But this ant already had the ability to bite them.
Hence, taking precautions became the common choice of the two great powers.
Previously, the Chiyang City Lord had just broken through not long ago. Before he had the chance to wreak havoc, he was killed by Chu Yunfan.
Hence, he was not recruited by the two great powers.
And Ruofeng City had never produced a Quasi-Emperor before. Hence, the rumor was just a rumor.
Now, he finally confirmed that the rumor was true.
No wonder those old powers did not have a single Quasi-Emperor …
Instead, it was the Chiyang City and Ruofeng City that had newly risen powers that had Quasi-Emperors.
Presumably, they were already well aware of this.
Thinking back to the rumors that he had heard before, those top experts from the old powers would leave this area when they had a chance of breaking through.
This was because this area could not tolerate the presence of experts of the Demi-Emperor Realm.
Hence, this fragile balance could be maintained.
He could completely imagine that if Chu Yunfan had not been around, Ruofeng City would not have been able to defend such a large territory. The final outcome would have been a wanton looting and then quietly retreating from the few cities that they had occupied.
This area would have returned to its original peace!
