"Whoosh!"
Hua Fankong's figure retracted, and his figure appeared before Du Shaofu. He looked at Ye Piaoling and Du Shaofu, and finally at Du Shaofu. His eyes narrowed as he said, "I have many places to go. Why should I join the World Society?"
"From now on, I'm afraid none of the factions in the Dark Forest will dare to recruit you, including the Mu Clan Fort, the Thousand Clouds Pavilion, and the Twin Hatred Sect. So, you have to be clear that I'm not the one begging you to join the World Society. You're the one begging me to join the World Society. Of course, I'm also very happy to have you join the World Society. "
Du Shaofu looked at Hua Fankong, his gaze wavering slightly as he said, "You're a Martial Lord, the leader of the Black Fiend Sect. Now you're even wary of a spoiled brat like Xue Yunming. Are you really willing to continue like this? Join the World Society, and within five years, I can guarantee that within five years, you won't need to fear anyone in the entire Dark Forest. Because behind you will be a rising World Society! "
As he finished speaking, Du Shaofu's eyes shone with a faint golden light. These words were not only directed at Hua Fankong, but also at himself.
Hearing this, Hua Fankong's eyes lowered slightly as he pondered. He raised his head again to look at Du Shaofu and said, "Alright, I'll join. However, my Black Fiend Sect still has some trustworthy old subordinates. Those brothers have followed me for a long time, and each of them has gone through fire and water with me. If they were to suffer an unexpected calamity because of me, I would feel uneasy. So I want to bring them along, while the Black Fiend Sect has not launched a large-scale search for us. I still have some time now. "
"Of course, no problem."
Du Shaofu nodded. He wanted to expand the World Society, and now was the time to recruit. Having Hua Fankong's trusted old subordinates joining would naturally be the best.
"Then where will we rendezvous at that time? The entire Dark Forest is under the influence of the One Pavilion, One Castle, and Two Sects. I believe that the current World Society shouldn't have a foothold in the Dark Forest yet!" Hua Fankong said to Du Shaofu.
"This …"
Du Shaofu was also rather embarrassed when he heard this. The current World Society indeed did not have any territory in the Dark Forest. They did not even have a place to stay. This was rather unsightly.
After pondering for a moment, Du Shaofu asked Hua Fankong, "In your opinion, if the World Society wants to establish themselves in the Dark Forest, where should they go first?"
"Chaos Demon City."
Hua Fankong said without hesitation, "Chaos Demon City. If the World Society wants to establish themselves in the Dark Forest, only Chaos Demon City can temporarily work. We still have to avoid the Black Fiend Sect, so we can only go to Chaos Demon City first. Firstly, it's relatively far from the Black Fiend Sect. Secondly, even the One Pavilion, One Fort, and Two Sects wouldn't dare rashly enter Chaos Demon City. It's the most suitable place for us. "
"Alright, let's go to Chaos Demon City then!"
Du Shaofu nodded. Hua Fankong was a local in the Dark Forest. Naturally, he was the most familiar with everything in the Dark Forest.
"I'm not done yet. It's also extremely risky for us to go to Chaos Demon City. Chaos Demon City is not an ordinary place. Otherwise, the One Pavilion, One Fort, and Two Sects wouldn't let Chaos Demon City go so easily."
Hua Fankong looked at Du Shaofu with a serious expression. He said seriously, "Most people think that the most chaotic place in the entire Dark Forest is the Dark Forest. In fact, other than the Dark Forest, the most chaotic place is Chaos Demon City.
Chaos Demon City is not big, and there aren't many interests involved. Usually, not many people pass by. Therefore, the four great forces don't dare to enter Chaos Demon City. In addition, there aren't many benefits, so they haven't entered Chaos Demon City. "
"Why don't the four great forces dare to enter Chaos Demon City?" Du Shaofu asked curiously.
"Because there are many demonic beasts in the Chaos Demon City. These demonic beasts are all extremely ferocious existences. Even the four great powers don't dare to offend them easily. If we go to the Chaos Demon City, we can only wait patiently. Those demonic beasts can allow people to stay in the Chaos Demon City, but they definitely won't be happy to see a powerful force rising up in the city. If we offend those demonic beasts, the consequences will be dire. However, the Chaos Demon City is the only place we can temporarily stay in the Dark Forest," said Hua Fankong. "Are there demonic beasts in the Chaos Demon City?"
Du Shaofu frowned. Then, he nodded and said to Hua Fankong, "Since that's the case, bring your men to Chaos Demon City first. If you arrive first, just wait for me in Chaos Demon City. I will go to Chaos Demon City when the time comes."
As his voice fell, Du Shaofu's face suddenly froze. He stared at Hua Fankong. His eyes were piercingly cold as he said, "Since you have agreed to join the World Society, then from today onwards, you are no longer the leader of the Kui Sha Gang. You are the leader of the World Society. In addition, I want to remind you that you are joining of your own accord. If you have any intention of betraying us, I will not be polite! "
Looking at Du Shaofu's piercingly cold eyes, Hua Fankong thought of the fate of Xue Yunming and the others. His heart couldn't help but tremble. He nodded and said, "I have agreed to join, so I will not betray you. Hua Fankong greets the president!"
As his voice fell, Hua Fankong knelt down on one knee and bowed respectfully.
Hua Fankong followed the purple-robed youth because of the threat of the Black Fiend Sect. On the other hand, only Hua Fankong himself knew the reason.
After interacting with the purple-robed youth for a few days, Hua Fankong realized that the purple-robed youth before him was much more extraordinary than he had imagined. It wouldn't take long for him to realize that the purple-robed youth was no ordinary person.
Hua Fankong was also clear that Du Shaofu had the backing of the entire Tianwu Academy behind him. Even though this ferocious youth didn't show any mercy to his enemies, he treated his own people well.
When the purple-robed youth rose to prominence, it would be an opportunity for Hua Fankong to follow him. If Hua Fankong were to miss this opportunity, there wouldn't be another one in the future.
Dozens of years later, when Hua Fankong rose into the ranks of influential figures in the Central Plains and looked down on countless empires, he would realize how wise his decision was. It was the wisest decision he had made in his entire life. Of course, this was a story for another day.
… … …
Dusk. As the last rays of the sunset faded away, the world darkened.
Dusk was like a large gray net, quietly spreading down and enveloping the entire land.
As night fell, the blue sky was dotted with countless stars. The moon was dark and the stars were bright.
On the mountain peak where he treated his injuries, in the cave where he tempered his body with the blood essence of the Xuanyun Scarlet Flood Dragon, Du Shaofu sat cross-legged.
After parting with Hua Fankong, Du Shaofu didn't head to the Chaotic Demon City immediately. Instead, he returned to the mountain peak where he had settled down.
Du Shaofu sat cross-legged. The Heavenly Purple-Gold Tower on his back had just reached the ground. Even though the Heavenly Purple-Gold Tower was astonishingly heavy, Du Shaofu didn't dare to remove it easily.
Du Shaofu didn't head to the Chaotic Demon City immediately. On one hand, he estimated that Hua Fankong wouldn't be able to reach the Chaotic Demon City so quickly. On the other hand, Xue Tianchou would definitely search the entire world for him after receiving news of his son's death.
The most dangerous place was also the safest place. Thus, Du Shaofu decided to settle down nearby first.
With the Heavenly Purple-Gold Tower on his back, his strength couldn't compete with a Martial King. Now that his speed was greatly affected, Du Shaofu had no choice but to be careful.
In the distance, countless people rushed into the sealed land to search for treasures. This had nothing to do with Du Shaofu anymore. Du Shaofu wouldn't pay attention to it either. The treasures were already in his hands. However, whether it was a blessing or a curse, Du Shaofu didn't know.
"Phew!"
After pondering for a moment in the cave, Du Shaofu took a deep breath. Then, he took out the bronze five-fingered mountain peak and the small rune pagoda.
His elder brother, Zhen Qingchun, had entered the pagoda to recover. There had been no news of him for a long time. Du Shaofu didn't dare to disturb him. Du Xiaoyao had consumed too much energy suppressing the Heavenly Purple-Gold Tower this time and needed to recover. Du Shaofu also didn't dare to disturb him.
"I've gained a lot today."
After a while, Du Shaofu put away the small pagoda and the mountain peak. Then, he took out the many Qiankun bags he had collected today.
"Chi Chi …"
Du Shaofu began to undo the seals on the Qiankun bags one by one.
It had to be said that undoing the seals on the Qiankun bags was also a kind of training for a Talisman Master. Not all Talisman Masters could easily open every Qiankun bag.
The stronger one was, the stronger the seal on the Qiankun bag, and the harder it would be to open it.
It wasn't easy for a Talisman Master who wasn't strong enough to open it. If they forcefully opened it, they could only destroy the bag.
Under Du Shaofu's calmness, the Qiankun bags were opened by Du Shaofu one by one. Although it took a lot of time, he still managed to open them successfully.
And the harvest in the Qiankun bags was enough to make Du Shaofu smile. There were many cultivation resources such as martial skills, Xuan stones, elixirs, and so on.
In Xue Yunming's Qiankun bag, Du Shaofu even saw a Marquis Grade Soul Channeling Elixir.
It was the elixir that Xue Yunming had bought for three hundred and eighty thousand Xuan Stones in the Mu Family's trading company.
The Soul Channeling Elixir was a treasure. If a peak Meridian Spirit Stage cultivator consumed it, it could increase the chances of breaking through to the Martial Marquis Realm by thirty percent.
Most importantly, the Soul Channeling Elixir could increase the chances of the Meridian Spirit and Martial Vein successfully fusing by half. Although it was only at the Marquis Grade Soul Channeling Elixir, it was priceless. Its value was often much higher than Marquis Grade Mysterious Grade Soul Channeling Elixir.
At the auction, Du Shaofu was also a little moved, but he couldn't use it at the moment. Moreover, the price had made Du Shaofu sigh, so he didn't make a move. Now that he had obtained it, it was quite a pleasant surprise for Du Shaofu.
After organizing the harvest in all the Qiankun bags, Du Shaofu took out another Qiankun bag and muttered, "I wonder what's hidden inside?"
A thought passed through Du Shaofu's mind as his soft muttering sounded. After which, an enormous being appeared in front of him.
