Chapter 1706: Chapter 395: They’re Here, the Dragon King and the Others Have All Returned!

Sea Dragon King, Fang Guozhen.

The leader of the Four Great Dharma Kings of the Zoroastrian Sect, a true powerhouse on the Heavenly List, currently ranked ninth!

”Dragon, Dragon King!”

Fang Guozhen’s appearance shocked everyone. On the walls of Wangchuan Pass, the originally desperate soldiers of the Zoroastrian Sect widened their eyes in disbelief. They had not expected the Dragon King, who had left the sect twenty years ago, to appear here again. It’s important to note that the current Zoroastrian Sect had nothing to do with him.

Although Fang Guozhen was originally from the Zoroastrian Sect, he had left the sect and established his own faction, the Divine Dragon Sect, twenty years ago. Thus, in the Jianghu, he was considered separate from Peng Yingyu’s Maitreya Sect.

Various Jianghu grudges with the Zoroastrian Sect were not attributed to the Divine Dragon Sect or the Maitreya Sect.

However, today, the court’s army is attacking Bright Peak. Frankly speaking, this is already a catastrophe. Fang Guozhen stepping into this muddy water now brings him no benefit whatsoever; it’s purely causing trouble for himself.

Therefore, the entire Zoroastrian Sect was shocked. They did not understand why at this time, when everyone avoided the Zoroastrian Sect, Fang Guozhen was not afraid of making things bigger and insisted on getting involved.

Fang Guozhen’s appearance shocked not only the ordinary cult members of the Zoroastrian Sect but even Mr. Guan, who, as one of the Four Great Dharma Kings like Fang Guozhen, widened his eyes in surprise. He had thought that the Zoroastrian Sect was doomed, but he could not have anticipated his old brother’s appearance at this time.

Fang Guozhen glanced at Mr. Guan and smirked, ”Little Fox, you’re really quite a mess. I’ve been gone so many years, and you haven’t improved at all!”

Little Fox!

Mr. Guan was stunned. How many years had it been since he heard that name? It couldn’t help but remind him of the past.

In fact, Fang Guozhen was about the same age as Han Shantong, Liu Futong, and Peng Yingyu, only three years younger than the youngest, Peng Yingyu. By rights, during the fight for the Zoroastrian Three Venerables, he should have been considered one of the Venerables.

However, at that time, there was a fierce dispute among the Dharama Kings. Many believed they had worked hard and deserved to be named Venerable.

They even shouted out the loud slogan of ten Zoroastrian Venerables.

A group of old guys were eyeing the position of Venerable, but at that time, the whole Holy Sect was flourishing, and everyone was united to develop the sect well.

At that time, Han Shantong, Liu Futong, Monk Peng, and Fang Guozhen all worked tirelessly, removing many old guys in the Zoroastrian Sect who held positions without contributing, reclaiming power.

Now, these old guys wanted to elevate themselves to the position of Venerable.

It’s crucial to know that Three Venerables versus Ten Venerables are two completely different concepts. Three Venerables meant the Zoroastrian Sect’s core leadership was entirely youthful, but Ten Venerables would disperse power, which was absolutely unacceptable to the spirited four at that time.

Therefore, to thwart the old guys’ schemes, Fang Guozhen voluntarily stepped down.

He gave up being a Venerable and demoted himself to Dharma King. If I am a Dharma King, who among these old guys has greater merit than me while I’m a Dharma King? So, what are you talking about?

It was precisely because of Fang Guozhen’s sacrifice that the unique status of the later Three Venerables was established, which laid the foundation for their rule over the Zoroastrian Sect.

This event was significant in the Zoroastrian Sect’s history, known as Dragon King Reins in the Dharma King!

It was because the Dragon King lowered his position that the Zoroastrian Sect could develop rapidly later. The subsequent Four Great Dharma Kings, like Du Zundao, Mr. Guan, and Han Miaozhen, all emerged after those old guys retired, ushering in a generation of vigorous youth.

They were considered Dragon King’s juniors, so when Fang Guozhen addressed them, he called them Little Tiger, Little Fox, and Little Han.

Moreover, they did not feel slighted by these titles, as such terms from the Dragon King were considered a form of recognition.

Now, upon hearing the Dragon King call him Little Fox again, Mr. Guan felt a multitude of emotions, especially recognizing the teasing tone. He couldn’t help but lower his head, ”I’ve embarrassed the Dragon King.”

Hearing this, Fang Guozhen burst into laughter, ”You win with intelligence, but facing the enemy directly, you still have room to improve. However, daring to strike at a critical moment shows some courage. As for being outmatched by others, that’s not your fault.”

Mr. Guan felt warmth in his heart upon hearing Fang Guozhen’s words.

Meanwhile, King Qi, whose plans were interrupted, looked at Fang Guozhen with a cold expression and said, ”Fang Guozhen, didn’t you betray the sect and establish your own? Today’s matter is between our court and the Zoroastrian Sect. Don’t get involved, leave now, and I’ll pretend I never saw you today!”

Involving more people in this conflict is not a wise decision, so King Qi wanted to use words to drive Fang Guozhen away.

After listening to King Qi, Fang Guozhen smiled, ”King Qi, your words are surprising. Although I left the sect, I never said I betrayed it. While I dislike certain things within the sect, I am aware that a tree has roots, and water has a source. I come from the Zoroastrian Sect, and no one in the sect has ever said my position as Dharma King was revoked. Hence, I am a Dharma King within this sect!”

”I must handle Zoroastrian Sect’s affairs!”

Fang Guozhen’s resounding words reached King Qi’s ears, and he frowned, ”Fang Guozhen, I remember that when you all left the sect, it was because of a doctrinal conflict between Peng Yingyu and Han Shantong. You supported Peng Yingyu, while Liu Futong supported Han Shantong. A doctrinal conflict is an enormous issue, akin to a life-and-death enmity.”
