Chapter 238 – Message
Liu Zhifei very quickly brought back the new instructions from the Heaven-Shaken Sect. Recently, there had been countless murders and robberies near the field, and it was said that there were already twenty to thirty cultivators who had died in the process of being intercepted. There were many cases where an entire caravan had been killed and robbed, which caused many independent merchants and many other large and small merchants to panic in their hearts.
After the news was spread, Mengyu County’s Chen County Official, Huyao County’s Master Cheng and Ling Zhang County’s Master Cheng ordered the border squad to be under martial law, with field as the center, they began to patrol the surrounding areas, to ensure the safety of the merchants and caravans participating in the exchange city. At the same time, they killed all those who stole the money and harmed Fei Xiu.
“There really is someone witiger’s whisker, these field are under the protection of the three Spiritual Masters, they are going to intercept and kill the people heading to the field Intercity, isn’t this clearly slapping the faces of the three Spiritual Masters!?”
“Adept Realm Cultivator is not a god, if they don’t have three heads and six arms, how can they care so much about it? It would be hard to avoid them if they were to be taken advantage of by some small fries, moreover, don’t they still have us!?”
“That’s true, almost every village, big and small in Mengyu County will have their own caravans to participate in the exchange market, we are finally defending the village now!”
Squad Twenty on the border guard moved quickly. However, the squads didn’t move in a grand manner. Instead, they all chose to move in secret.
Zhuang Guangyu had once asked Liu Zhifei why he kept such a low profile, but Liu Zhifei scolded him with a smile: “If we move too openly, wouldn’t that mean we are telling Fei Xiu to quickly hide? If that’s the case, then where are we going to exterminate the bandits? ”
Zhuang Guangyu had already gotten used to playing games in the group, so he was a lot more straightforward and joked: “Brother Fei, I think it’s better if you scare these people off with your big mouth, killing these Fei Xiu doesn’t have any achievements, and those that can do it are all desperate, don’t have much wealth, and you can’t even get any spoils of war. Moreover, these people are mostly desperate criminals, so it’s not worth it to hurt one or two of our own family members!”
Zhuang Guangyu’s words actually hurt the morale of the crowd, if they truly were to meet with a life and death battle, just based on these few words alone, they would cut down on their banners, but they did not take Fei Xiu seriously, so it was fine to just joke about it.
Liu Zhifei immediately threw a peach that he had just picked up towards Zhuang Guangyu’s head. Seeing him laugh and dodging, Liu Zhifei scolded him: “Kid, your skin is itchy, just your mouth is long!”
Then, Liu Zhifei’s face turned serious, and after everyone saw the situation, they all stopped laughing, but he still spoke solemnly: “Do you know why it was so secretive before? Hehe, I just want those Fei Xiu to snatch it away, what happens after they snatch it away?
After Fei Xiu stole them, they would naturally let us snatch them from Fei Xiu’s hands and kill Fei Xiu on the way. As such, the materials in Fei Xiu’s hands would naturally fall into the hands of the Frontier Cultivators, and according to Liu Zhifei, after the border guards received the cultivation materials, they did not plan to return them back to the people that were robbed.
To be able to participate in the other market, it didn’t matter if they were traveling alone or on a merchant caravan of various sizes, which one of them returned empty-handed? Fei Xiu wouldn’t return empty-handed, so the bandit border guards would naturally earn a lot of money along with them.
However, Yang Junshan felt that doing this was not right, so he tried to ask: “Is this an order from the Chen County?”
Liu Zhifei glanced at Yang Junshan, and said: “This is the sect’s order!”
Pausing for a moment, he then added, “Martial Uncle Chen is also an elder of a sect!”
It was fine that Liu Zhifei did not add the latter part of the sentence, but what he said made Yang Junshan mutter in his heart instead: What exactly does the additional sentence mean? Is it that Spiritual Master Chen Ji, as an elder of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, has to obey the orders of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, or is Spiritual Master Chen Ji, an elder, one of the decision makers behind the order?
However, Yang Junshan chose to be sensible and stopped asking, but there were still some people in the group who were a little worried.
Liu Zhifei could naturally see the worry on their faces, but he still said: “Before we begin, no one is allowed to leak the news of this operation.
The worry on everyone’s face grew deeper, but he continued to speak: “Of course, I am not an ungrateful person, if we really do encounter Fei Xiu who robbed and killed the merchants of your respective villages, we naturally cannot stand idly by and watch, but after we make a move we must also express ourselves, we cannot let our brothers make a move for nothing!”
When everyone heard this, the worried look faded from their faces as they said one after another, “Yes, captain!”
However, everyone was still mumbling in their hearts. If their families were to run into this village’s caravan, then it would be fine. But what if the other village’s caravan did? If that small team didn’t have cultivators from the same village, wouldn’t they have been robbed and killed by Fei Xiu before being taken by the border guards in the name of exterminating bandits?
They were afraid that they would encounter bandits on their way back from the field, while Xiong Xiyi and Ning Ran were calm and collected. It was unknown whether it was because their families had long been prepared for such an order, or because their families had already made preparations for such an event, or because their families had no fear of the so-called bandits.
However, Liu Zhifei had already made preparations beforehand. After the warning from before, everyone was now forbidden from leaving, not even half a step away from the stronghold. It wasn’t just the third team, all the twenty small teams on the border were like this.
At this time, Yang Junshan on the other hand, was thinking more and amass wealth. What Yang Junshan was seeing now was the Heaven-Shaken Sect constantly amassing wealth, and it was already nearing the limit of using any means possible.
The current Yang Junshan was no longer the blocking teenager who guarded the Mengyu County in his previous life. All these years, the Xishan Village Merchant Group had followed the management of Yang Tiangang and An Xia and Yang Junshan, and Yang Junshan was often able to hear news from outside the Mengyu County. He was even able to understand a little about the situation in the entire cultivation world of the Yuzhou.
Therefore, other than the events that he had personally experienced such as the Rust Rocks, the extermination of’s entire family, the’s annihilation of his entire clan, and the’s exchange of field, Yang Junshan was also clear that many other events of varying sizes had also occurred in the other three counties of Yuxian. Without exception, all of these events were related to the wanton accumulation of wealth.
But why did the Heaven-Shaken Sect do it, even putting on a front as though he was a fish out of water?
, who had experienced the calamity of extermination in his previous life, couldn’t help but suspect that the Heaven-Shaken Sect had already sensed that danger was approaching and was preparing for it to come.
But in fact, the more Yang Junshan understood the situation in the cultivation world of Yuzhou, the more he suspected the reason behind the destruction of the Heaven-Shaken Sect.
Because even though the Heaven-Shaken Sect had already declined greatly compared thousand years ago, it was still without a doubt the number one sect in the Yuzhou. In the entire cultivation world of the Yuzhou, there were almost no opponents for it!
The disaster of the Monster race? Alien invasion? The various sects in the Yuzhou attacked together? These were all jokes!
In his previous life, on the eve of the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s extermination, the demon clan had only just revealed their presence, while the foreign clans had only just received attention from the cultivation world. Although the extermination of the Heaven-Shaken Sect was something that the other races would participate in, it would not change the weather greatly in the future.
In fact, the destruction of the Heaven-Shaken Sect he had experienced in his previous life had caused all of the high-level cultivators in the Heaven-Shaken Sect to disappear in a very short period of time.
And after the quick destruction of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, the other sects in the Yuzhou’s cultivation world experienced a period of prosperity which expanded aapid pace in a short amount of time. This was undoubtedly built upon the plundering of the Heaven-Shaken Sect.
Furthermore, all of these were things that Yang Junshan found difficult to solve at all. Firstly, it was impossible for the high order cultivator s of the other sects in the Yuzhou’s cultivation world to kill all of the Heaven-Shaken Sect s in such a short amount of time, even though there were still remnants of them, it was already out of date; secondly, even if they were all to be killed, it was impossible for the high order cultivator s from the other sects to be completely unharmed. But in reality, after the destruction of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, the various sects did not use the resources of the Heaven-Shaken Sect to restore their vitality.
Of course, there was also one point that Yang Junshan had noticed earlier, which was that the remnants of the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s forces had not been killed by the other sects. Although the two sides were enemies with each other, they did not kill each other.
Thinking about it, Yang Junshan became more and more convinced of the thought that had flashed through his mind earlier. Could it be that the destruction of the Heaven-Shaken Sect really had an even more tyrannical power backing it up, allowing it to decapitate all of the high order cultivator?
For example, Yang Junshan had the good fortune to have heard of the Daoist Realm cultivators in his previous life, but had never seen them!
After the foothold’s ban, the third, fifth, and seventh squads of thirty cultivators were prohibited from going out. Three squads of disciples from the inner sect of the Heaven-Shaken Sect were in charge, but the rest of them could still walk around freely in the small courtyard of the stronghold.
When no one was paying attention to him, a faint golden light pattern flashed on Yang Junshan’s forehead. After that, Yang Junshan leaned against the wall and yawned, then returned to his room to cultivate as if nothing had happened. In reality, he was sleeping.
In the forest several miles away from the stronghold, behind a luxuriant bush, a colossus suddenly stood up. At first glance, the decorative patterns on his body seemed to be one with the surrounding scenery, but if one looked carefully, they would be able to make everyone suck in a breath of cold air.
Two white auras were ejected from the mouth of the tiger. A faint figure appeared about ten meters away from the tiger. It was a girl who seemed to be about fourteen or fifteen years old.
“Aiya, don’t rush me. I’ve already gotten the news!” The little girl waved a small slip of paper in her hand and said with a smile.
