In the huge temple in the capital of Kai Rong Country, Zhan Tianfeng, who lived alone, gently put down the thin paper in his hand.
Although this piece of paper didn't seem to have any weight, his movements were very careful, as if this piece of paper was extremely heavy.
In front of him, there were five Xiantian Masters in the Hall of Masters. They all looked dignified, as if they were hesitating and waiting for Zhan Tianfeng's decision.
After a long time, Zhan Tianfeng said softly, "Tell me, what should we do?"
Intentionally or unintentionally, everyone's gaze shifted to Mao Lieguang. The number two figure in the Kairong Kingdom smiled bitterly and said, "This He Yiming really knows how to stir up trouble. He actually provoked the Totem Clan. Haha, he's really young and impetuous. "
Cheng Fu frowned slightly and said, "Master, the letter said that He Yiming did not enter the mountains, nor did he injure the wolf totem envoy. The totem was not taken by him."
"He saw that he was in big trouble, so of course he refused to admit it. Besides him, who else can have the power of the five elements and can easily injure the wolf totem envoy? " Mao Lieguang chuckled and said, "In the past few months, he was deep in the mountains. Who knows what he did. At least in terms of time, it's possible. "
Everyone was silent. Only Cheng Fu's eyes flashed and he said, "Master, since He Yiming said it, he should not be lying."
Mao Lieguang was stunned. He glared fiercely at his disciple, but the disciple he doted on the most still had an unwavering expression.
Mao Lieguang shook his head and sighed. However, he wasn't really angry in his heart, and he didn't feel embarrassed because he had lost face.
Of course, if it was someone else, even Xu Kuiding, who was second only to him in the Hall of Masters, said so, Mao Lieguang would definitely not be polite.
Zhan Tianfeng finally laughed and said, "You two don't have to argue. Whether He Yiming went to the wolf totem clan or not, it doesn't make much difference. What I want to ask you now is whether we should go and reinforce them. "
Mao Lieguang said without hesitation, "Grand Tutor, this is a matter of the Hengshan lineage. It is not up to us to deal with it."
Zhan Tianfeng calmly looked at Cheng Fu and said, "What do you think?"
Cheng Fu hesitated for a moment. Finally, he nodded heavily and said, "Grand tutor, we should send someone. With our status, we should send at least two Xiantian Masters. "
Mao Lieguang opened his mouth, but in the end, he did not refute. Although the Hengshan bloodline was not a country, it was still within the sphere of influence of the Kairong Country. Moreover, the enemy they faced was the public enemy of the entire Northwest Countries, the Totem Clan. If the Great Master Hall of the Kairong Country was really stingy, then it would definitely be spurned by the entire Northwest Countries the next day.
Zhan Tianfeng's gaze once again fell on the thin piece of paper in front of him. Even the gazes of everyone in the room fell on this point at the same time.
This thin piece of paper was sent by a disciple of the Hengshan bloodline a day ago. It recorded what had happened in the Hengshan bloodline recently. Even the reason why the Wolf Totem Clan left the mountain was written down without hesitation. Of course, He Yiming sternly stated that the person who went to the Totem Clan was not him. Moreover, he did not know where the totems in the treasury came from.
Although they did not hide anything, it was precisely because of this that they were able to gain the trust of others.
After a long while, Zhan Tianfeng sighed and said, "Fine, who wants to go to the Hengshan bloodline?"
After hearing his decision, even Mao Lieguang did not express any surprise. With Zhan Tianfeng's I, how could he not know the crux of the matter?
If he did not agree to send someone to help, then it would be strange.
Cheng Fu's eyes lit up. He stepped forward and said, "Grand Tutor, this junior is willing to go."
Zhan Tianfeng's face darkened. He said, "Everyone else can go, but not you."
Cheng Fu was startled. He asked, "Grand Tutor, why can't this junior?" His voice was filled with a sense of injustice.
Before Cheng Fu lost to He Yiming, although he was also one of the top five powerhouses in the Hall of Masters, whether it was his bearing or his strength, he was far from questioning Zhan Tianfeng's decision.
However, no one would have thought that after that failure, not only did Cheng Fu not fall into depression, he worked even harder. Under Zhan Tianfeng's guidance, he persisted in an extremely special and arduous cultivation method that was beyond anyone's imagination. Moreover, under such circumstances, he actually had another epiphany.
Because of this experience, Cheng Fu's status in the Hall of Masters in Kairong Country rose rapidly. In particular, in Zhan Tianfeng's eyes, he was not inferior to Mao Lieguang anymore.
In the entire Hall of Masters, only he dared to raise his question after Zhan Tianfeng had made a decision.
Zhan Tianfeng's eyes were calm. He asked, "Cheng Fu, do you know who your opponent is this time?"
"This disciple knows. It's the Totem Clan deep in the mountains."
"Do you know how terrifying this clan is?"
"This junior knows." Cheng Fu said seriously, "The Totem Clan is a great threat to the entire northwest. The Totem Envoys are powerful existences that are not inferior to Xiantian powerhouses. It's indeed very dangerous to fight with them. It won't be surprising if I lose my life there. "
Zhan Tianfeng scoffed. "So you're aware of this. Do you still insist on going?"
Cheng Fu lowered his hands and said, "Yes, this junior still wants to go to Mount Heng."
Zhan Tianfeng frowned. "Why? Is it because you can't let go of that person and still want to compete with him?"
Cheng Fu shook his head. "Grand Tutor, this junior doesn't dare to belittle myself, but I'm well aware that I can't be compared with that person in terms of talent, so I've long given up this extravagant hope."
Zhan Tianfeng's expression eased. It was a good thing for a person to have fighting spirit, but it was not a good thing if the target was set on an unattainable level. It was a fatal injury.
The current He Yiming was no longer a target that Cheng Fu could compare with.
If Cheng Fu was still thinking about his past failures and wanted to defeat He Yiming as if he was possessed by a demon, then it would no longer be a good thing for him, but a tragedy.
"If that's the case, why do you insist on going?"
Cheng Fu's eyes suddenly lit up. "Grand Tutor, this junior saw a person's signature in this letter." He looked at the letter again and said, "Xu Chengchang, this is the most famous young man in the Heavenly Lake Sect, Bai Santian. He's going to Mount Heng because he wants to accumulate experience and build a solid foundation for his future martial path. "
Zhan Tianfeng's expression changed. He asked hesitantly, "You're going because of him?"
"Yes. It's because the Wolf Totem Clan is powerful that they're the best opponents for us to practice in a life-and-death battle. Before we reached the Xiantian Realm, we used life-and-death trials to hone our martial path. Now that we've become Xiantian Masters, why should we give up this tradition? "
Mao Lieguang smiled bitterly. In the northwest, there were many Acquired Masters and Xiantian Masters.
Using life-and-death trials to eliminate and stimulate one's martial strength was certainly possible in the Acquired Realm. After all, people wouldn't care much if one or ten Acquired Masters died. However, if one Xiantian Master died in such a trial, it would be difficult for any force to bear the consequences.
However, how could Cheng Fu not know this? The reason why he said this was purely to express his determination at this moment.
Sure enough, Cheng Fu took a deep breath and said, "I can lose to He Yiming, but I definitely don't want to lose to anyone else." Cheng Fu's voice was sonorous and powerful, as if it was hammered into his heart. "Mu Jintian, Xu Cheng Chang, I don't want to lose to anyone."
The room suddenly fell silent. Zhan Tianfeng's cold eyes fell on Cheng Fu, but he didn't shrink back and looked at the real master of Kairong Country.
Mao Lieguang's face was already covered in cold sweat. He cursed in his heart. Cheng Fu was so stubborn that he dared to say such words in front of the Grand Preceptor. He was really reckless.
However, the other Xiantian Master in the room, Xu Kuiding, who was qualified to be present, nodded secretly. He seemed to inadvertently glance at Mao Lieguang beside him. He thought to himself, It's really incredible that such a master can teach such an outstanding disciple.
However, Cheng Fu was so outstanding. As long as he didn't die in the hands of others in the future, then the next One-Line-Sky Master of Kairong Country might really be him.
Zhan Tianfeng finally closed his eyes and slowly sat down, saying, "Lieguang."
"Yes."
"Go with Cheng Fu." Zhan Tianfeng faintly said. "Remember, bring him back."
The bitterness on Mao Lieguang's face had long been swept away. He said solemnly, "Don't worry, Grand Preceptor. Even if I can't come back, Cheng Fu will definitely come back."
Zhan Tianfeng waved his hand, and everyone tacitly left the room that was like a forbidden area in Kairong Country.
After leaving, the huge pressure that everyone felt from Zhan Tianfeng's body suddenly disappeared. Mao Lieguang glared at Cheng Fu and said, "Pack up. Let's go."
However, when he turned around, a look of extreme satisfaction appeared on his face. With such a disciple, what more could he ask for …
After the three Xiantian Masters left Zhan Tianfeng's room, he picked up the paper on the table again and murmured softly, "It's really strange. Who exactly framed He Yiming?"
Cheng Fu only chose to believe He Yiming's words after seeing the contents of the paper. However, Zhan Tianfeng directly determined that this person was definitely not He Yiming.
"Five-elemental vital energy, possessing all five elements?" His eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of something. His body uncontrollably became excited.
"Master, could it really be you who did it … Hehe, regardless of whether you did it or not, the result would be the same. As long as the totem clan knows that there is such a young master outside the forest, they will definitely eliminate him at all costs. " Zhan Tianfeng sighed deeply and said, "Killing with a borrowed knife. Only by reaching this stage can one be considered to have reached the pinnacle of perfection."
At this moment, he had thought through many problems.
After provoking the totem clan, the entire northwest region would be unlucky. And if He Yiming was allowed to continue developing, Kairong Country would be unlucky.
As soon as he thought of He Yiming's warning of a bloodbath in the Kairong Country's Hall of Masters, he felt a faint pain in his heart.
If it weren't for his master and senior brother saying that they would no longer intervene in state affairs, and He Yiming still had the 108 and Hengshan behind him, he wouldn't have been willing to admit defeat so easily, thus becoming the laughingstock of the entire northwest countries.
But since then, Zhan Tianfeng also understood. As long as this person did not die, the position of the three strongest countries in Kairong Country would sooner or later change hands.
However, at this time, his many days of distress had been completely eliminated. A strange smile appeared on Zhan Tianfeng's face, "Instead of me being unlucky, it is better to let the entire northwest bear the same consequences. He Yiming, since you have caught the attention of the totem clan, then, you are dead … "

In the Tian Luo Kingdom, Shui Xuanjin slowly put down the paper in his hand. His face did not change, but he slightly pinched his long beard, as if he was thinking about something.
His eldest disciple, Xue Lie, had already seen the contents of the paper. His face changed slightly, and he said, "Master, you can't go."
Shui Xuanjin laughed, and said, "Why not?"
"Master, you are already so old, how can you still take the risk?" His face was filled with excitement, and he said, "Master, let me go on behalf of you."
Shui Xuanjin laughed loudly, and said, "Xue Lie, don't talk nonsense. They are the majestic Hengshan bloodline, and even have several Xiantian elders. Do you think they will care about a little Houtian expert like you?"
Xue Lie's face immediately turned red. Of course, he understood that he was an expert at the peak of the tenth level of internal energy. Even in the Tian Luo Kingdom, he was considered a top figure, and even the major families did not dare to provoke him. But in the Hengshan bloodline, there were at least four people who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him. If he went, it would only be embarrassing.
He lowered his head deeply, and said, "I am ashamed that I was not able to advance to the Xiantian realm. I have disappointed you, Master."
Shui Xuanjin shook his head, and said, "Xue Lie, don't let your imagination run wild. How can it be so easy to advance to the Xiantian realm? Even when I was young, if I was not fortunate enough to obtain a wind attribute Xiantian Golden Pellet, I would have no hope of advancing. "
Xue Lie's face was still ugly, but he knew that Shui Xuanjin's words were absolutely true. If not, Xiantian masters would not be so rare.
Shui Xuanjin stood up, and said in a clear voice, "I will leave now. Go and inform His Majesty."
Xue Lie was startled, and said, "Master, are you not going to tell His Majesty personally?"
"There is no need." Shui Xuanjin shook his head. His expression seemed to have a trace of strangeness, and he whispered, "I want to take a good look at this land before I leave."
Xue Lie suddenly raised his head, and looked at Shui Xuanjin in a daze. He wanted to say something, but stopped.
Shui Xuanjin laughed involuntarily, and said, "Xue Lie, I have been listening to the wind recently, and have comprehended something. This time, even if I cannot kill the enemy, I will be able to protect myself. You don't have to worry about me."
With that, he waved his sleeve, and his body suddenly disappeared. In the next moment, he was dozens of meters away.
Xue Lie's eyes widened, and his face was filled with surprise and joy. Shui Xuanjin's movement technique had become so incredible, what was there to worry about?
If He Yiming was here and saw this scene, he would definitely know that the two points and one line technique that he had comprehended from the power of the wind was no longer something that he had learned exclusively.

In the Fire Crow Kingdom, in the Royal Pagoda, two old men sat opposite each other.
Those who could be invited to this pagoda, other than the top figures of the Royal Family, were only Xiantian experts of the same level as Ting Shiguang.
At this moment, the two people sitting opposite each other were Ting Shiguang and Hsieh Chih-en, who had just advanced to the Xiantian level.
Slowly putting down the paper that was as light as a feather, but as heavy as Mount Tai, Ting Shiguang's face was indescribably solemn.
"Brother, what do you think?"
Hsieh Chih-en pondered for a moment, and said, "I will follow elder brother's lead."
Ting Shiguang looked into the distance, and after a long time, he finally said, "Alright, since that's the case, I have decided to go. If I don't return this time, then the Fire Crow Kingdom will have to rely on you to support it in the future."
Hsieh Chih-en's face changed drastically, and he said, "What are you saying, elder brother? Even if I have to go, it should be me going."
Ting Shiguang chuckled, and said, "The opponent this time is not an ordinary person, but an expert from the Totem Wolf Clan. If I am not wrong, there will definitely be many totem envoys heading to Hengshan. You have just advanced to the Xiantian level not long ago, and haven't even completely stabilized your realm. If you meet them, I'm afraid that it will not bode well for you. "
Hsieh Chih-en was instantly speechless. Although Ting Shiguang's words were not pleasant to hear, they were the absolute truth.
Ting Shiguang slowly closed his eyes, and said, "Our relationship with He Yiming is not ordinary. This time, no matter what, we have to make a trip. Moreover, even the most outstanding rising star of the Heavenly Pool Mountain, Xu Chengchang, is on Hengshan. I don't think there will be too much danger."
Hsieh Chih-en's mouth opened, but he could not say anything.
The four great clans of the Fire Crow Kingdom were all great families with a legacy of around a thousand years. Others might not know what the Totem Tribe represented. But how could they not know?
This was a powerful force that even all the kingdoms and sects in the Northwest combined were not a match for.
Against such a powerful force, no one dared to say that they would be able to survive.
Ting Shiguang stood up, and climbed to the top of the tower alone.
This was the highest place in the entire Fire Crow Kingdom.
The cold wind was biting cold, like a knife scraping his face. But he just stood there, as if he did not feel it at all.
He looked at the life at his feet that was like an ant, and a strong reluctance to part suddenly surged in his heart.
This was his country, a place that he was willing to give up everything for. But this time, it might be the last time he stood here and watched this scene in front of him.
At this moment, this ordinary scene, which was no different from the past, was so moving!
Below him, Hsieh Chih-en silently looked at him, as if he could understand his feelings at this moment.
Even this old man who had lived for more than a hundred years, at this moment, his heart could not be calm …

The message from Hengshan was circulated among the Xiantian masters of Kai Rong Country and the surrounding small countries.
In the following days, everyone made their own decision.
But, almost everyone made the same choice. In this situation where there was no threat to them, almost all the Xiantian masters chose to watch silently from the sidelines.
In reality, the alliance of small countries was indeed unable to maintain a unanimous decision because of their different interests.
Other than Tian Luo Country and Fire Crow Country, Hengshan did not receive any other reinforcements from other Xiantian masters! (To be continued, if you want to know the future, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters, support the author, support the original reading!)
