As a key participant in the war of the Eastern Tang, having returned to the Mountain, Yan Zhaoge naturally had to meet Fang Zhun.
Fang Zhun said slowly, "It was still rather risky this time. Although eldest apprentice-brother went to the Eastern Tang ahead of the other party's expectations, a battle of this level could still affect you."
Yan Zhaoge smiled as he answered, "What second apprentice-uncle says is true. Thinking about it now, I also feel some lingering fear. Still, it was still worth it. It's just a pity that the Great Sun Heaven Measuring Ruler was not left behind."
Fang Zhun waved his hands. "That was completely according to the optimal situation that we had envisioned. The current results are already extremely good."
"We must act decisively, but we must not underestimate the opponent's reaction speed."
"Although Huang Xu isn't Huang Guanglie, he isn't easy to deal with either."
His tone was gentle as he spoke to Yan Zhaoge. While he was speaking to him as a senior, he did not give off the feeling of looking down on him.
Just from the atmosphere of their conversation, Yan Zhaoge's conversation with him seemed even more relaxed than his conversation with Shi Tie.
"Second apprentice-uncle is right," Yan Zhaoge smiled.
Fang Zhun said, "I already know about Yan Xu's problem. I also feel very regretful about what happened to your Yan clan that year."
Yan Zhaoge shook his head, "Second apprentice-uncle's words are too serious. Having personally slain Yan Xu for me, I can also be considered to have avenged him. After my father knew about it, he had already let go of the matter."
Fang Zhun said, "The relic of the Glacial Dragon Martial Saint and that ring of my disciple Ye Jing will be decided after Master and the others have returned to the Mountain. Zhaoge, go and rest well first."
Yan Zhaoge bowed, "I will take my leave. Please wait, second apprentice-uncle."
Exiting the Assignment Hall, Yan Zhaoge let out a long breath.
When people mentioned the Three Heroes of Broad Creed Mountain, they would usually first think of Yan Di who possessed the greatest martial talent and strength.
But actually, before Yan Di had risen to prominence, of their generation, the most famous figure of Broad Creed Mountain's new generation had been precisely the quiet and peaceful Fang Zhun who was currently sitting in the Assignment Hall appraising scrolls.
The name of the Hidden Dragon had already explained everything.
Meanwhile, the person of the Sacred Sun Clan who had been Fang Zhun's opponent in the past was their current Chief, Huang Xu.
Even now, with Huang Xu succeeding Huang Guanglie as the new Chief of the Sacred Sun Clan, there were few who felt that Huang Xu was inferior to him in terms of personal ability.
Walking on the small mountain path, Yan Zhaoge's thoughts drifted as he thought of many things.
"By the way, how is Junior Sister Feng doing now?" Yan Zhaoge asked, as Ah Hu by the side gave a simple and honest laugh, "Young Master, after you entered the Assignment Hall just now, I already sent people to inquire about it."
"Miss Feng has already started cultivating. In the past half a year, she has been nursing her injuries and cultivating her martial arts foundation."
"After all, she is now a disciple of Broad Creed Mountain. For the sake of having a smoother path on her martial path in the future, it would not be good for her to continue cultivating in the martial arts of the Sacred Sun Clan. Spending some more time to reconstruct her foundation now is also normal."
"The old Sect Master took care of her personally and used a Sea Exchange Stone from the sect's collection to help her rebuild her Dantian Sea of Qi."
Ah Hu scratched his big head and said, "I heard that her injuries have gradually healed, and the reconstruction of her foundation has been completed. The sect has arranged for her to stay in a cave residence in the back of the mountain. As for other matters, we'll discuss them after you return, Young Master."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "Let's go take a look. If her condition already fulfils the conditions, the matter of helping her regain her Extreme Yin Physique as soon as possible should be put on the agenda."
As they walked, Yan Zhaoge sighed, "Time waits for no man. Her opponents will not stand still and wait for her. She has already wasted more than two years' time."
Arriving at the back of the mountain, nearing Feng Yunsheng's residence, Yan Zhaoge's heart jolted slightly.
A middle-aged woman walked out from the side of the road. It was one of Broad Creed Mountain's Acting Elders.
Seeing Yan Zhaoge, she nodded and did not say anything else, her figure disappearing once more.
Yan Zhaoge similarly nodded in acknowledgment before continuing on his way.
Within the forest, the sound of a waterfall resounded. Passing through the forest, Yan Zhaoge saw a massive waterfall appear before his eyes.
The rumbling water fell from the sky, crashing against the deep pool below, causing huge splashes of water to form.
Looking over, Yan Zhaoge saw that below that waterfall, a figure stood ramrod straight, allowing the violent waterfall to strike unceasingly.
White clothes like snow, black hair like a waterfall.
A jet-black sabre was grasped in a jade-white hand, which was waved over and over again.
Every time the sabre was waved, that massive waterfall would be slashed apart for an instant!
The next moment, the water flow resumed, and the waterfall descended once more.
Then, the sabre waved once more, and the waterfall was slashed apart once more.
Just like that, the cycle repeated itself.
Yan Zhaoge stood there, not moving, quietly observing. Ah Hu also accompanied him by the side.
That figure was extremely determined. Yan Zhaoge and Ah Hu were similarly extremely patient.
Time passed, from midday all the way to sunset, without a break in the slightest.
"While it is still in its embryonic form, within that sabre, it vaguely possesses the strengths of both the Sacred Sun Clan and the Broad Creed Mountain Clan." Seeing the other party's cultivation, Yan Zhaoge did not just look at her determination and perseverance, "I did not judge wrongly earlier. Her comprehension ability can only be stronger than Xiao Shen's, and her diligence in cultivation is also top-notch."
Ah Hu's expression was somewhat solemn, "While I have only seen her cultivate, Young Master, I feel that she is very strong in actual combat. At the same cultivation level, she might even be more outstanding than Xiao Shen and Chao Yuanlong."
Yan Zhaoge shrugged his shoulders, "That's right; I have seen her in actual combat. Looking at her usual cultivation, it is actually very easy to underestimate her. "
"Even if we don't consider the problem of her being a Maiden of Extreme Yin, she is still an outstanding genius in the martial dao. If she had not castrated Xiao Shen, even if she crippled one of his legs, the Sacred Sun Clan would probably still have people who would protect her."
Seeing Feng Yunsheng finally stop, leaping out from beneath the waterfall, Yan Zhaoge prepared to stride out, "From the looks of it, she indeed seems to have finished her preparations."
Just as he was about to raise his leg, Yan Zhaoge's movements paused slightly.
He saw Feng Yunsheng rather carefully observing her surroundings, as if confirming that there was no one around.
Not discovering anyone else, a relaxed smile appeared on her face as she walked towards a dense forest by the side of the waterfall.
Yan Zhaoge frowned, "Oh? Could it be that there is something shameful going on? If there really was, our clan's Elder keeping watch over this place shouldn't have been unable to detect it. "
Feeling curious, Yan Zhaoge followed after her, Ah Hu also hurriedly following.
Entering the forest, he saw Feng Yunsheng currently squatting on the ground without a care for her image. That little black dog called Little Meaty that she was raising was sitting by her side, wagging its tail.
A small fire had been lit up by Feng Yunsheng. On top of the fire was a rack, on which was a skewer of something, being roasted.
At this moment, Feng Yunsheng was completely different from her usual heroic, spirited appearance. She looked like a cat that had stolen a fish, moving closer to the rack, her nose lightly sniffing as an expression of enjoyment appeared on her face.
She sighed in admiration, "The world only knows that this Tiger Claw Fish is highly poisonous, but they don't know that it is a supreme delicacy!"
Hearing this from afar, Yan Zhaoge and Ah Hu couldn't help but exchange looks.
… The Tiger Claw Fish was not only highly poisonous to ordinary people; it could even poison Martial Scholars!
