Fengrun City was surrounded by the Qinghu Mountain Range to the west, the Nine Mythical Beast Mountains to the south, the Hongyang River to the north, and the boundless open plains to the east. It was a strategic location with abundant Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi. It was easy to defend and hard to attack.
Looking at the majestic ancient city built on the nine God Beast Mountains, Yu Haoran was thinking about how to take down Feng Run City in the shortest time possible. At the same time, he was waiting for the Pagoda Spirit's reply. He wanted to see if the geographical environment of Feng Run City was suitable for setting up the defensive array formation of the sun, moon, and stars.
"Yu Haoran, according to the Feng Run City's Earth Veins, not only can I set up the Defensive Formation of the Sun, Moon and Stars perfectly, but I can also use the unique terrain of the Nine Divine Beast Mountains to set up a Peak Heaven Rank Offensive Formation."
After carefully observing the Earth Veins of the entire Feng Run City with his powerful Divine Sense of the Third Tribulation Demigod Realm, Thaling couldn't help but remind him in surprise.
"If Lan Rong and the other Seventh to Ninth Grade Martial Saint Realm experts control the Offensive Formation, not only can it easily kill a Peak Ninth Grade Martial Revered Realm expert, but it can also severely injure a Peak Third Grade Martial Saint Realm expert like Emperor Wu."
The Sun, Moon and Stars Formation, which used a Middle Level Four Spiritual Vein as its energy source, could defend against a Peak Ninth Grade Martial Saint Realm expert like Emperor Wu.
The Peak Heaven Rank Offensive Formation, which relied on the Nine Divine Beast Mountains, could kill a Peak Ninth Grade Martial Saint Realm expert and severely injure a Peak Third Grade Martial Saint Realm expert like Emperor Wu.
Even if the Great Han Empire was far stronger than the Emperor Qin Empire, there shouldn't be many Martial Saint Realm experts like Emperor Wu.
Therefore, they didn't dare to send many Emperor Wu and Martial Saint Realm experts to attack the city, and they couldn't tolerate the loss of these experts.
Therefore, after hearing Thaling's reply, Yu Haoran's face flashed with a trace of surprise. He knew that taking down Feng Run City meant that the first step of the war in the Eastern Region was successful.
The next expedition to the east and the expansion of the territory would be Lan Rong's responsibility.
After forcefully suppressing the joy in his heart, Yu Haoran began to think about how to smoothly take over Feng Run City.
Although Fengrun City was a strategic location that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, the only threat that could be posed to the Great Emperor Qin's Kingdom was blocked by the Qing Hu Mountain Range. This caused the Great Han Empire to not pay enough attention to Fengrun City.
Not only was there no army stationed in Feng Run City, but he had also used Emperor Wu's Divine Sense to check the number of experts in the city. In the end, he found that the strongest expert in the city was only a peerless expert at the peak of Third Grade Revered Martial Artist.
In other words, it wouldn't be difficult to take down Feng Run City.
However, the only troublesome thing that needed to be avoided was how to ensure that certain people in the city wouldn't use special means to secretly inform the Great Han Empire's Ministry of War and the Imperial Family.
After all, not only did the setting up of the Lunisolar Formation and the Offensive Formation require a certain amount of time, but the process of setting up the formation and forming the hand seals must not be disturbed.
After thinking about it, Yu Haoran finally decided to wait until nightfall. He and Pallas would use sneak attacks to kill all the suspects in the city who were secretly in contact with the Great Emperor Qin's Kingdom. After that, they would lead the army to officially take over Feng Run City.
Of course, with Thaling's strength as a Third Tribulation Demigod and the Divine Sense Secret Attack Technique, he could instantly kill all the suspects.
However, he didn't want Thaling to do so.
Firstly, he hoped to increase his ability to adapt to changes through the process of taking over Feng Run City.
Secondly, he hoped to use sneak attacks to raise his status in the hearts of the 100,000 elite soldiers and increase their sense of worship and belonging.
After informing Thaling of his thoughts and plans and obtaining further information from him, Yu Haoran and Pallas discussed the distribution of the targets and areas for the sneak attack.
As the darkness descended, Yu Haoran ordered Lan Rong and the rest to pay attention to the whereabouts and aura of the army and to be prepared to send troops to take over Feng Run City. After that, he brought Pallas and approached Feng Run City quietly.
Perhaps it was because Feng Run City was too remote, or perhaps it was because the mayor wasn't very good at business and management, there were very few entertainment activities in the city. Other than two brothels and three casinos that were still brightly lit, the other places had long been plunged into endless darkness.
"Brother Chi, let's end this quickly!"
Similar to most of the cities in the Tianxuan Continent, Feng Run City's mayor's mansion occupied the entire North City District. The nobles lived in the East City District, the rich lived in the West City District, and the poor lived in the South City District.
According to the initial distribution plan, Yu Haoran went straight to the East City District where the high officials and nobles lived. He whispered to the Scarlet Loathe.
"Got it!" After nodding in response, Pallas instantly disappeared from the city wall.
According to the results of his re-examination with Divine Telekinesis, Yu Haoran knew that there were not many people in the East City District who were in contact with the Great Emperor's Empire's Ministry of War and the Imperial Family. There were only the commander of the city guards, the inspector in charge of supervising the army, and the patriarch of the Yuan Clan, one of the five major clans in Feng Run City.
After quietly sneaking into the governor's mansion, Yu Haoran used his Divine Telekinesis to lock onto the commander of the city guards who had just advanced to the Martial Venerable Realm. With the assistance of the law of flash and light, he instantly appeared behind the commander and directly knocked him out before he could sense the danger.
After that, he pressed his left hand directly on the commander's head and began to use the Demon Sect's secret Soul Searching Technique to forcefully check the commander's memory.
"Looks like the result is similar to my speculation. It's really the dozen or so people that I've locked onto with my Divine Telekinesis have the ability and means to secretly contact the Great Han Empire's Ministry of War and the Imperial Family." After checking the commander's memory, Yu Haoran's face revealed a hint of joy as he softly muttered to himself.
After that, he directly crushed the commander's head and soul. After taking the storage ring on his finger, he did not immediately leave the room. Instead, he walked to a bookshelf on the east side of the room and waved his hand to move the entire bookshelf to one side.
Yu Haoran's inexplicable actions immediately attracted the attention of Thaling who had promised not to help. When he saw that behind the bookshelf that had been moved was still an ordinary white wall, he immediately used his Divine Telekinesis to check the entire white wall.
However, the result was that his Divine Telekinesis directly penetrated the white wall and did not discover any hidden passageways or mechanisms behind the white wall. This made Thaling unable to help but ask.
"Yu Haoran, what are you trying to do?"
Ignoring Thaling's question, Yu Haoran stretched out his finger and began to tap on the wall while recalling the commander's memory that he had just checked.
