Wu Dao was provoked.
Moreover, he was provoked quite badly.
Although he was not a narrow-minded person, it was not that he could not accept that his former disciple could surpass him.
However, could the speed and process of this surpassing not be so fast? There was no time to accept and react at all.
How long had it been since Ling Tian left him and joined Yang Fan's sect? It had been less than half a year, right?
However, his cultivation realm had already soared from the sixth level of the Spirit Emperor realm. Now, he had already reached the intermediate level of the half-step Emperor realm!
This didn't make any sense at all. How could a person's cultivation progress so quickly?
Even if there was no cultivation bottleneck and he did not need to be stuck at the peak of the Spirit Emperor realm to advance directly, could it be that he did not even need to do the most basic accumulation of cultivation now?
It was one thing to go from the sixth level of the Spirit Emperor realm to the peak of the Spirit Emperor realm, but the cultivation experience of the half-step Spirit Emperor realm was more than ten times that of the peak of the Spirit Emperor realm.
Every single one of these old fellows had tempered at the Half-step Monarch Realm for a few dozen years before they'd barely filled up their pool of experience, and only then did they have the confidence and hope to charge into the Monarch Realm.
However, Ling Tian and Sang Duoduo did not seem to have experienced this process of accumulation at all. After breaking through to the half-step Emperor realm, they directly jumped to the intermediate level of the half-step Emperor realm.
More importantly, they did not show any signs of instability because of their rapid cultivation advancement. Their foundation was very solid.
They felt very unbalanced in their hearts.
Wu Dao was not the only one who felt this way.
Hui Zi 'an, Li Tongzhi, Zhang Hongxin, and the others were also half-step Emperors from the Federal Center City. They were quite familiar with Sang Duoduo and Ling Tian. They had even met them once more than a month ago. At this moment, their hearts were also shaken.
It was too abnormal.
Compared to the abnormal cultivation progress of these two juniors, these old fellows felt like they had lived for more than a hundred years in vain.
No matter how they thought about it, they felt that it was somewhat impossible. How did they do it? They could not figure it out at all.
"As expected, talent is all nonsense. With a good master, you have everything!"
Hui Zi 'an's tone was extremely sour. She secretly sent a voice transmission to Wu Dao.
"Old Man Wu, do you think that I would've reached the consummate level of the Emperor Realm if I'd had such a cheap master who would've given me both resources and cultivation realms? Or even completely transcended?"
Envy, jealousy, and hatred. Why didn't I meet a master as awesome as Yang Fan when I was young?
Wu Dao pouted and said, "It's not too late now. As long as you can put down your old face and take Yang Fan as your master now, you might not even need to wait for the Sovereign Perishing Vision to ascend to the Sovereign Realm."
The corner of Hui Zi 'an's mouth twitched slightly. She turned her head and ignored the old man who had never been able to walk out of the state of menopause.
If she really wanted to be his disciple, would she have waited until now?
They had already taken action the last time Yang Fan came to the Federal Center City.
This old man must have seen that his obedient disciple, who he had brought up since young, was about to catch up with or even surpass him. He must have been greatly agitated.
He deserved it!
If he didn't have the ability to teach her, why couldn't someone else teach her better?
At this moment, the great defensive formation outside the city fluctuated again.
This time, it was the Ten Directional Inferno Demon Slaying Formation, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Virtual Combination Formation, and the Spirit Energy Defense Formation. The three formations interconnected and alternated in operation. Barriers of various colors appeared vaguely, making for a spectacular sight.
The formation was complete!
In less than five days, a complete new type of Great City-Guarding Array appeared before everyone's eyes.
For the time being, the two spore clones were left in the formation to preside over the operation of the formation in case of any accidents. Yang Fan's main body parted the fog and slowly walked out of the illusion to the north gate.
"Senior Martial Brother Fu, fortunately, I didn't disappoint you. The great defensive formation of Dai Xing City is complete!"
Seeing Fu Zhengqing standing at the front, Yang Fan smiled and cupped his hands to report the completion of the task.
Fu Zhengqing laughed heartily and grabbed Yang Fan's hands, saying fervently, "Thank you for your hard work, Junior Martial Brother. With this great defensive formation, I can finally rest easy!"
After the two brothers exchanged some pleasantries, Fu Zhengqing turned around and introduced the foreign powerhouses behind him to Yang Fan.
"This is Senior Tang Zhicheng, the headmaster of the Federation Martial Arts University.
"This is the head of the Huai Hua Fang family, Fang Baiyue.
"I don't think I need to introduce this person to you. He's City Lord Yao of the Federal Center City. You should have met before …"
With a smile on his face, Yang Fan cupped his hands to greet these unfamiliar and familiar guests one by one.
At the same time, the Charm skill was activated. Any stranger he did not know would be used on them a few times.
"You've used the Charm skill on the half-step Emperor Tang Zhicheng, which has a 66% chance of successfully triggering. Charm successful, Tang Zhicheng's favorability towards you has greatly increased. Mental Power + 10, Spirit and Willpower + 10, Skill Proficiency + 20.
"You've used the Charm skill on half-step Emperor Fang Baiyue. 66% chance of triggering successfully. Charm successful …
"You've used the Charm skill on half-step Emperor Lai Yutang. 66% chance of triggering successfully. Charm successful …"
Every time he met someone, Yang Fan would be able to turn them into his own people in the shortest amount of time possible. Their favorability towards each other soared rapidly.
It had to be said that the success rate of the Charm skill at the Illuminating stage was simply incomparable to before.
In the past, if Yang Fan wanted to turn a half-step Emperor into one of his own, he would not be able to succeed without at least eight to ten attempts.
Now, he could succeed almost every one or two attempts. The feeling of being able to do whatever he wanted was simply too great.
Before long, all the guests who came to the north gate had met one by one. Those who were somewhat dissatisfied with or had a grudge against Yang Fan before were now friendly and kind. The atmosphere at the scene was auspicious and warm as if it was a gathering of old friends. It was very harmonious.
"All of you are guests, and I know very well why you're here. Like I said, as long as you don't cause trouble and follow the rules, Dai Xing City will always welcome you as a guest."
Yang Fan's gaze swept across the crowd. Then, he changed the topic slightly.
"Of course, if anyone doesn't follow the rules and doesn't give face, don't blame the Northwest for not being hospitable. We'll directly kick the troublemaker out!"
After saying that, Yang Fan turned to look at Fu Zhengqing. He took out a jade talisman and handed it to Fu Zhengqing.
"Senior Brother, this is the control talisman plate for the Great City-Guarding Formation. It can automatically protect the master and also carry out simple control of the formation in the city."
"From now on, the control of this Great City-Guarding Formation will be handed over to you, the governor. If anyone dares to cause trouble in the city, even if a half-step Emperor comes, you don't have to give face to them. Trap and drive them out if you need to. The dignity of the Northwest Guard's Residence is not to be challenged!"
Obviously.
Yang Fan was here to support his Senior Brother, the governor.
Previously, the new Great City-Guarding Formation had not been built, so Dai Xing City did not have any powerful means to protect itself. Yang Fan could only send a half-step Emperor dog to temporarily deter them.
Now, the Great City-Guarding Formation had been built, and the deterrence was self-evident.
Even if the big dog was no longer by Fu Zhengqing's side, and even if Yang Fan and the others left in the future, no one in Dai Xing City would dare to look down on or bully Fu Zhengqing, who had full control of the Great City-Guarding Formation.
The Great City-Guarding Formation could easily trap and kill a half-step Emperor, let alone half-step Emperors and ordinary Sovereigns.
"Doctor Yang, don't worry. We'll strictly restrain our subordinates and act according to the rules of Dai Xing City."
"Yang Fan's words are reasonable. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. This is common sense."
"If any of the little bastards that I brought here dares to cause trouble, Doctor Yang and Governor Fu won't have to do anything. I will personally throw them out of the city!"
"…"
For a moment, there were nods of agreement.
Although these people had chosen to temporarily endure and submit because of the big dog's deterrence, they were still a little unwilling and held grudges in their hearts.
Now, with the appearance of Yang Fan and the completion of the new Great City-Guarding Formation, these people had no choice but to be completely obedient no matter how uncomfortable they were in their hearts.
The situation was better than the people.
In the future, with the protection of the Great City-Guarding Formation, as long as they were in Dai Xing City, even half-step Emperors who wanted to cause trouble would have to consider whether they could break through the Great City-Guarding Formation.
To put it simply.
Now, the Northwest Guardian's Mansion had completely stood up because of the existence of the Great City-Guarding Formation. At least in their small piece of land, no one would dare to bully them at will anymore.
"Junior Brother, thank you so much for your consideration!"
Fu Zhengqing excitedly stretched out both hands to receive the jade talisman. He knew that this jade talisman must have been specially refined by Yang Fan for him.
After all, Fu Zhengqing still had some understanding of this new Great City-Guarding Formation. Previously, after the Great City-Guarding Formations in the Federal Center City and the Capital City were built, he had never heard of such a control jade talisman.
Obviously, this was a protective talisman that Yang Fan was worried that his Senior Brother would be threatened or in danger in the city, so he had specially refined this protective talisman.
"We're family, no need to thank me!"
Seeing that Fu Zhengqing had put away the jade talisman, Yang Fan smiled gently.
Fu Zhengqing's guess was right. This jade talisman was indeed a protective talisman that Yang Fan had specially refined for him.
This way, even if they left Dai Xingcheng in the future, without the deterrence of the quasi-emperor pet, Dai Xingcheng and Fu Zhengqing would not be deliberately targeted or retaliated against.
As long as the Great City-Guarding Formation was not broken, Fu Zhengqing would be protected and protected by the formation at any time, and he would be safe and sound.
Next to him.
Yao Puxin's eyes were completely red. He looked at the jade talisman in Fu Zhengqing's hand with a burning gaze, and his face was full of envy and jealousy.
They were both City Lords and City Lords, but why was there such a huge gap between them?
This was clearly a case of discriminating treatment!
If it weren't for the fact that this was not the right place, Yao Puxin might have immediately asked Yang Fan for the same formation plate jade talisman.
He was also a City Lord, and he also needed such a protective talisman. Brother Yang Fan, you can't favor one over the other!
Thinking about it, if he also had such a jade talisman in hand, he could mobilize the power of the Great City-Guarding Formation at any time. In the future, who would dare to provoke him in the Federal Center City?
This was not only a protective talisman, but also an invincible talisman.
Its existence could greatly strengthen the authority and autonomy of the ruler of a region. In their own jurisdiction, they could punish anyone they didn't like or wanted to punish. Even Half-Emperors were no exception. So, did it feel good?
Yang Fan's Divine Soul was extremely sensitive, and he naturally noticed Yao Puxin's burning gaze. However, he looked away and pretended not to see it.
What a joke, this kind of control jade talisman that could be carried around was not something that just anyone could easily carry around and control.
Fu Zhengqing's cultivation was too weak, and his character was extremely strong, so he was completely trustworthy. That was why Yang Fan had specially considered refining such a protective talisman for him.
As for Yao Puxin, Yang Fan had only met him a few times, and he didn't know him very well, okay?
Moreover, this old man's cultivation was already at the peak of the Sovereign Realm, and there were too many quasi-emperors and quasi-emperors in the Federal Center City. He wouldn't be in any danger, so he didn't need a jade talisman to protect himself at all.
After all, this jade talisman was a double-edged sword. If it fell into the hands of some City Lords with evil intentions, who knew what kind of trouble it would cause? Yang Fan didn't dare to show it to others easily!
