The middle-aged scholar and Gao Fang were captured by Ah Hu, one in each hand, resembling an eagle catching chicks.
Sitting on a chair, Yan Zhaoge raised his head and gazed at the ceiling, his gaze unfocused as he instead felt like his mind was wandering beyond the heavens.
Suddenly, his expression changed slightly, "Oh, a lot of people?"
Within Yan Zhaoge's senses, a large number of martial practitioners were currently surrounding the house he was in, their imposing aura also emanating a sense of orderly solemnity.
Yan Zhaoge could not help but laugh, shaking his head, "Great army? Are they taking us as demonic beasts to surround and capture? "
Feng Yunsheng, Xu Fei and the others exchanged looks.
They had already known earlier that in this Floating Life World, in order to deal with semi-demonised practitioners, in order to actively hunt powerful demonic beasts to obtain the power of their bloodline, demonic bloodline cultivators would often form formations together.
It was not just the Furan Kingdom. Even large sects like the Blood Cloud Clan would specially train in grand formations, forming them to face enemies together when the need arose.
Xu Fei said slowly, "While our Eight Extremities World also has formations, most of them are established based on geographical advantage, rarely forming battle formations with many people."
Yan Zhaoge said, "This is a difference brought about by different cultivation methods. The people forming battle formations here mostly cultivate in the same or similar type of demonic beast bloodline. This way, their power can be linked together, guided by the battle formation."
"It is not suitable for our side. There were some battle formations before the Great Calamity, but they all had their own unique requirements, not being so easily realised."
"Wanting to obtain power that surpasses the ordinary, there will always be some price to pay, some restrictions."
Yan Zhaoge smacked his lips, not knowing whether to laugh or to cry, "This brother does know some pretty good battle formations, but the problem is that they are all too high end …"
Ah Hu asked from the side, "Young Master, is the other side intending to win by numbers?"
"Gathering chicken feathers to gather courage, wanting to gang up on them." Yan Zhaoge shrugged, swivelling his head to look at the two, "It looks like in the eyes of your Crown Prince, you are also not very important ah."
The face of the Chief of the Eagle Feather Sect, Gao Fang, was ashen, while feeling the aura of the great army outside that could topple mountains and overturn seas, that middle-aged scholar's expression could not help but turn a little ugly, "It is not the Crown Prince who has come. It is the Grand Commander of the Crimson Halberd Corps who has come. This person has always acted on his own, his temper stinky and hard."
"He must have thought that your actions of detaining us in Kanghe City are equivalent to provoking our Furan Kingdom, and thus acted."
Yan Zhaoge asked rather interestedly, "How is it that he can freely mobilize his army, not having to consult your King and Crown Prince?"
The middle-aged scholar and Gao Fang felt a little awkward. "The king is currently in seclusion and has great trust in this person..."
Yan Zhaoge pulled back the corners of his mouth.
He was loyal to the king, but he didn't like the crown prince. Such a person …
Yan Zhaoge laughed, "That is to say, this person also won't care about your lives?"
The smiles on Gao Fang and the middle-aged scholar's faces were somewhat forced. The middle-aged scholar barely managed to raise his spirits. "Thus, there's no use for you to detain us. Why don't you release us? We'll help you deal with the Grand Commander of the Crimson Halberd Corps."
"The Great Commander of the Crimson Halberd Corps is loyal and devoted to the Monarch. It's just that he doesn't have a grain of sand in his eyes. We can completely turn a big problem into a small one and a small one into nothing."
"Your strength is outstanding, and the Grand Commander of the Crimson Halberd Corps would definitely not want to make such a powerful enemy for the Furan Kingdom. Having a great battle in Kanghe City would be even more unseemly …"
Looking at the two of them, Yan Zhaoge seemed like he was smiling whilst also not, asking, "Could it be that just after I let you out, you would instead pour oil on the fire in front of that Grand Commander of the Crimson Halberd Corps, urging his army to immediately attack? As you say, this Grand Commander and the Crown Prince behind you are not on good terms anyway. "
"Whether or not he can kill me is another matter altogether. If I kill him, to the Furan Crown Prince, it seems to be something that he would be happy to see happen? "
Gao Fang and that middle-aged scholar both hurriedly said, "Definitely not, definitely not!"
From outside emanated a killing intent that had virtually condensed into tangible form. Cold sweat began dripping down the foreheads of the two.
Yan Zhaoge smiled, waving his hands, "Relax a little. I'm just curious as to where your Crown Prince is at this time? From what you say, your positions in front of him are still rather important. "
Exchanging glances with that middle-aged scholar, Gao Fang hesitated for a moment before saying, "His Highness might be receiving envoys of the Blood Cloud Clan, receiving the news a little later. It would not be good to neglect our esteemed guests …"
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "That Grand Commander of the Crimson Halberd Corps daring to make a move, not fearing that he would not be able to eat us up, is actually also because someone from the Blood Cloud Clan has come, right?"
Gao Fang and the middle-aged scholar nodded.
However, they could not be optimistic. After all, having already fallen into Yan Zhaoge's hands, they could be killed at any time. Even if an expert of the Blood Cloud Clan could avenge them, who would be willing to lose their lives?
Yan Zhaoge asked interestedly, "I've heard of the Three Demons and Four Clans before, but how much stronger is the Blood Cloud Clan compared to you? For that Grand Commander of the Crimson Halberd Corps to be so confident? "
Gao Fang and that middle-aged scholar both looked rather strangely at Yan Zhaoge.
Yan Zhaoge smiled mildly, "When my ancestor reigned over the Floating Life World, the Three Demons and Four Clans had yet to exist. It's just that the past is like passing clouds and smoke; it's fine not to mention it. I am someone who places more importance on the present and the future."
Gao Fang sighed, "If it is said that the King is enraged, being able to destroy my Eagle Feather Sect in a single day, then if the Blood Cloud Clan wants to make a move against the Furan Kingdom, it should be the same situation, perhaps even more important."
The middle-aged scholar said, "Including the Furan Kingdom, there are a total of thirty-six Kingdoms in the surroundings, all of which are governed by the Blood Cloud Clan."
"This time, the Blood Cloud Clan holding a great meeting in the Furan Kingdom to recruit disciples is actually only for the six Kingdoms including the Furan Kingdom. Such a great meeting is still being held in five other places, facing the other thirty Kingdoms."
"There are nine grades of demonic beasts. The upper three grades of demonic beast bloodlines are only possessed by the Blood Cloud Clan and the other three clans. The middle three grades of demonic beast bloodlines are already extremely precious to the Furan Kingdom, comparable to national treasures. However, in the Blood Cloud Clan, they are merely ordinary."
Yan Zhaoge listened intently. Hearing this, he suddenly asked, "What grade is the Six-Legged Flying Lightning Leopard here?"
Gao Fang answered, "The third grade of the upper three grades."
Yan Zhaoge asked seemingly unintentionally, "Are there any famed martial practitioners who cultivate in the bloodline of the Six-Legged Flying Lightning Leopard?"
The two exchanged glances, "The bloodline of the Six-Legged Flying Lightning Leopard only exists in the Blood Cloud Clan. There are two rather famous experts, one being the longtime Elder of the clan, the 'Leopard King' Ling Gang, and the other being his disciple, the 'Little Leopard King' He Taicheng."
The middle-aged scholar looked at Yan Zhaoge rather disbelievingly, "You shouldn't have come into conflict with Ling Gang and He Taicheng before, right? He Taicheng is already a famed expert many years ago. Even if you can defeat him, if you provoke his Master Ling Gang, you definitely won't be able to bear the consequences, let alone the entire Blood Cloud Clan standing behind them! "
Yan Zhaoge smiled, looking thoughtful.
As they conversed, the battle formation of the Crimson Halberd Corps outside had already been completely formed. While they didn't charge in, the demonic power that resembled the tides of the sea caused the house to collapse inwards from the outside. (To be continued.)
