Of his many descendants, the most outstanding three were hailed as the Broad Creed Three Heroes.
This was Yan Zhaoge's eldest apprentice-uncle, the First Seat of Broad Creed Mountain's Disciplinary Hall, the 'Iron Lion King' Shi Tie.
Yan Zhaoge's second apprentice-uncle, the First Seat Elder of Broad Creed Mountain's Assignment Hall, 'Hidden Dragon' Fang Zhun.
As well as Yan Zhaoge's father, Yuan Zhengfeng's final disciple, the current First Seat Elder of Broad Creed Mountain's Martial Inheritance Hall, Yan Di.
Yuan Zhengfeng, Yan Di and his disciples as well as the other experts of Broad Creed Mountain, in the Martial Grandmaster realm, their strength actually surpassed that of the Sacred Sun Clan.
Even excluding Yuan Zhengfeng, in terms of Martial Grandmasters, Broad Creed Mountain was definitely not inferior to the Sacred Sun Clan at all.
However, Martial Saint Huang Guanglie was above him.
What worried those of Broad Creed Mountain even more was that Yuan Zhengfeng was gradually getting older.
Under normal circumstances, Yuan Zhengfeng could only be considered to be in the prime of his life, not old.
However, he had injured his foundations back then. Not only did it affect whether he could become a Martial Sage or not, but it also affected his lifespan.
The more time passed, the lower the chances of Yuan Zhengfeng breaking through to the Martial Saint Realm.
Of Broad Creed Mountain's other experts of the older generation, Yuan Zhengfeng himself was the one with the greatest hope.
Of the senior generation, with Yan Di at their head, there were also those who had hopes of becoming Martial Saints.
However, compared to Yuan Zhengfeng, they needed more time and opportunities.
What Broad Creed Mountain lacked the most right now was time.
On one hand, it was the pressure of the Sacred Sun Clan, and on the other hand, it was also because of his own body, causing Broad Creed Mountain's old Chief, Yuan Zhengfeng, to have no choice but to make a decision.
In the near future, he would enter closed-door cultivation to break through to the Martial Sage Realm. He would either succeed or die trying.
As the son of Yan Di, Yan Zhaoge was extremely clear about the current situation of the clan.
He naturally knew what Broad Creed Mountain needed the most right now.
Yan Zhaoge's knowledge was unceasingly improved along with his own body as he explored and researched, putting what he had learnt into practice, combining pure theory with reality.
Yan Zhaoge was currently still in the process of researching how to create a Martial Saint.
It was extremely difficult to transcend mortality and become a saint.
Even if there was a way, with the current state of the Eight Extremities World, it would be very hard to satisfy the environmental and resource requirements.
However, he had to find the right remedy.
Ever since Yan Zhaoge had come to this world and ascertained the environment he was in, the research he had placed the most emphasis on was on the old Clan Chief Yuan Zhengfeng's old injuries.
The importance of this matter far surpassed that of the Internal Crystal Furnace. However, the difficulty of this matter was also much greater.
If he succeeded, Yuan Zhengfeng would not only have to recover from his injuries, but he would also have a higher chance of breaking through to the Martial Sage realm.
The pressure brought about by Huang Guanglie's secluded cultivation caused Yuan Zhengfeng and Broad Creed Mountain to have to forge ahead, no longer able to continue following the usual routine.
Ah Hu grinned from the side, "Speaking of which, the World Illuminating Young Master Huang Jie is often not seen. Could it be that the old Chief of the Sacred Sun Clan is personally guiding and grooming him?"
Xu Chuan smiled when he heard that. "It's not impossible, but it's probably just simple guidance and hands-on teaching. Huang Guanglie doesn't have that much time."
Yan Zhaoge narrowed his eyes, "The World Illuminating Young Master Huang Jie … interesting."
At this time, Xu Chuan received a message from his subordinate, and his face turned solemn.
"Young Master Yan, there are strange movements at the border. More experts of the Sacred Sun Clan have entered the lands of the Eastern Tang, their cultivation bases unknown."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "Regarding our position, release some fake news to confuse the other party."
"Keep in touch with our sect. We need reinforcements and help to cover our tracks."
Xu Chuan answered, "I understand."
Yan Zhaoge gazed at the defensive lines of the Eastern Tang Kingdom's capital, Jingyang City, his gaze distant.
They moved about unceasingly. During this time, they also encountered the Sacred Sun Clan's forces, but very quickly broke through and killed their way out.
After changing their hiding location once more, Yan Zhaoge and the others suddenly received news.
The Eastern Tang's First Prince, Zhao Yuan, had been surrounded by the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners.
Yan Zhaoge revealed an expression that looked like he was smiling whilst also not, raising his brows slightly, "While Brother Zhao Yuan does not have the title of Supervising Crown Prince, at this time, he should also make use of this chance to show off his abilities."
"Uncle Zhao is out on a campaign. Why did he come out instead of remaining in Jingyang City?"
"Giving the chance to the Third Prince Zhao Sheng for nothing?"
Xu Chuan answered somewhat vexedly, "When Prince Jin, Zhao Shilie, retreated, he destroyed a few of the Jingyang Grand Formation's spirit patterns along the way."
"Another Martial Grandmaster of the Eastern Tang has to sit over Jingyang City. Zhao Yuan and Zhao Sheng have both come out on orders to repair the spirit patterns."
Looking at Yan Zhaoge, he said in a heavy tone, "Our clan's Elder Yan has brought our clan's martial practitioners out of the city to help exterminate the remnants of the Sacred Sun Clan and Zhao Shilie's forces."
"We had originally thought that it would be very safe, but because of Xiao Shen's death, the Sacred Sun Clan increased their forces, and so we encountered them all at once."
Yan Zhaoge asked, "Since that is so, then what about Yan Xu? He doesn't care? "
Xu Chuan said dryly, "The Third Prince, Zhao Sheng, met with danger first. Elder Yan has already gone over there to reinforce him; I'm afraid that he won't be able to rush over to help the First Prince in time."
Yan Zhaoge smiled but did not speak, lowering his head to look at the map, "It's not far from us ah."
Frowning, Xu Chuan looked at Yan Zhaoge, "Young Master Yan, we …"
"If we have the ability, we naturally have to help," Yan Zhaoge snapped his fingers, taking the lead in striding forward.
Xu Chuan laughed bitterly, "Whatever you say, Young Master Yan. Today, this Xu is risking his life to accompany the nobleman."
Yan Zhaoge and the others traversed through the mountains, very quickly feeling the great earth up ahead shaking.
The air before them even seemed a little scorching hot, the roiling waves of heat growing stronger and stronger.
"The unique characteristics of the Sacred Sun Clan's martial dao." Yan Zhaoge and the others all had a rough idea of what was going on. Continuing to advance, they indeed saw that at the foot of a mountain in the distance, two groups of martial practitioners were currently engaged in an intense battle.
On one side, it was precisely the Eastern Tang martial practitioners led by the Crown Prince of the Eastern Tang Kingdom, Zhao Yuan.
And on the other side, it was naturally the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners.
The Sacred Sun Clan had more martial practitioners, and their individual strength was also greater. The situation that Zhao Yuan and the others were in was already extremely precarious.
Not saying a word, Yan Zhaoge immediately led Xu Chuan and the others in killing their way into the battlefield from the side.
Saving people was like putting out a fire; Yan Zhaoge did not hold anything back, the Jade Dragon Sword dancing as it spiraled about, instantly causing the other side's forces to collapse like a collapsing mountain.
As the Broad Creed Mountain martial practitioners killed their way before Zhao Yuan, this Crown Prince of the Eastern Tang smiled bitterly, "Having heard that the Sacred Sun Clan had increased their forces, we had already retreated as quickly as we could, but who knew that we would still be blocked."
Yan Zhaoge thought to himself, Brother's route back to Jingyang City is one of the main targets of the enemy's blockade.
"Brother, you have been implicated by me this time. It will be hard for you to return to Jingyang City; you had better go somewhere else."
As he said this, Broad Creed Mountain and the Eastern Tang martial practitioners joined forces, tearing apart the encirclement formed by the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners together, breaking out of their encirclement.
Only after shaking off their pursuers did the two sides have the time to converse. As they walked, Zhao Yuan shook his head, "Zhaoge, you having killed Xiao Shen, your name will definitely shake the heavens. It's just that the Sacred Sun Clan's vengeance must also be careful."
'Implicated by me' was not just referring to the Sacred Sun Clan …
As Yan Zhaoge was thinking this, his heart suddenly leapt.
Ah Hu, Xu Chuan and the other Xiantian Martial Scholars all gazed into the distance.
There, a great golden sun slowly rose up from within the towering mountains.
Within the great golden sun, a figure gradually appeared. It was a one-eyed old man with a square face and big ears, dressed in a golden robe.
