Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1132: Enemies’ Movement

When they arrived at the town hall, the townspeople had already filled the place. Despite their large numbers, they lined up neatly on both sides, with the youngest generation standing at the front.

Just like the townspeople, Zhang Fei [5] and the others also had to queue to buy Puyang Shangren’s items.

Xuanyuan Zhuanxu and several elders from the other clans led Puyang Shangren into the town hall, while the rest stood guard around the town to prevent those people from breaking in.

To Puyang Shangren’s surprise, the Ancient Leiyu Tianlu flew from his shoulder and landed on Zhang Fei [5]’s shoulder, rubbing his head against his cheek. ’Hmm? Tianlu has never been close to anyone before, and he never allowed my parents to touch him, but he actually took the initiative to approach this little boy.’

Puyang Shangren ignored that and entered the town hall, where he opened the small wooden box that quickly expanded on its own, revealing various kinds of items. ”Call your youngest generations first.”

”Yes, Senior.” Xuanyuan Wuyue called them one by one to choose the items they wanted.

Outside, Zhang Fei [5] rubbed the beast’s little head as he monitored the inside of the town hall using his senses, and the number of items that Puyang Shangren brought quite surprised him.

Luo Yunxiao and the others tried to touch the Ancient Leiyu Tianlu, but the beast immediately showed hostility towards them, and he tried to attack them.

Unlike toward them, the Ancient Leiyu Tianlu did not show any hostility when Feng Yao touched him; instead, he visibly trembled because of her aura.

”Hehe.” Feng Yao chuckled at the beast’s reaction. ”If you dare attack me, I will roast you with some spices, and I will enjoy your meat.”

Zhang Fei [5] shook his head and spoke to the beast. ”They are my wives, so please don’t attack them, okay?”

The Ancient Leiyu Tianlu looked at Zhang Fei [5] for a moment before nodding, and he snuggled against his shoulder while continuing to rub his head.

”Is his wooden box an artifact?” Zhang Fei [5] asked Feng Yao.

Feng Yao nodded at him. ”His wooden box is the Redwood Void Cabinet, and it has no limitations because it was created using the void elemental law. Therefore, you should not be surprised if he can carry so many types of items in large quantities.”

”Do you think he has demon items?” Zhang Fei [5] curiously asked.

”There are some ancient demon races in that realm, and they are much stronger than those ten demon gods. Therefore, he should have some demon items, and you can try asking him about them later.” Zhang Fei [5] nodded to Feng Yao. ”The character of the demons in that realm is still quite evil, like those in this Paradise Realm and the Three Mortal Realms, but they rarely clash with other races.”

”Don’t other races hate those demons, Big Sis Yao?” Luo Yunxiao asked.

Feng Yao then created a small Qi screen. ”Unlike the people in this realm or in the Three Mortal Realms, the inhabitants of that domain never regard those demons as heretics. Despite some other races still harboring hatred for them, they can coexist together for so long.”

”Doesn’t that mean the realm is much more peaceful?”

”Not really.” Feng Yao shook her head at Wang Yourou. ”Although clashes between them are rare, some still occur, and their scale is much larger and more devastating.”

”Can people from this realm ascend to the Ancient Realm?” Yan Yinqing asked her.

”No.” Feng Yao’s answer confused them. ”This domain is indeed the border between the Paradise Realm and the Ancient Realm, but no cultivator from this realm can ascend there directly, and they can only ascend there if the ancients take them there.”

”So, we will never have the chance to ascend to the Ancient Realm?”

”Haha.” Feng Yao softly laughed at their dejected expression. ”Why are you guys reacting like this? All the cultivators in this realm would never be able to ascend to the Ancient Realm without the ancients, but you guys have Zhang Fei [5], remember? As you already know, the ten-tailed fox is a primordial beast, and he will become one when he inherits all of Hu Tianlang’s souls and evolves into the ten-tailed fox.”

”Huh?” All of them looked at Zhang Fei [5] in shock. Even the Ancient Leiyu Tianlu also looked at him with a shocked expression, not expecting that he was the heir of the ten-tailed fox.

Zhang Fei [5] himself was also shocked by Feng Yao’s words. ”Will I really become a primordial beast after I evolve into the ten-tailed fox?”

”Yes.” Feng Yao answered him with a nod. ”There is only one ten-tailed fox in this universe, and you will become a primordial beast after you evolve into one. Unfortunately, your road to evolving into one is still long, and you have to find all of Hu Tianlang’s souls first.”

Zhang Fei [5] nodded in understanding. ”According to the information I have, two of his souls are in the Slaughter Blood Domain and in the Floral Mirage Domain, but I don’t know which souls are hidden there. As for his wrath soul, it is in the Illusion Spirit Fox Domain, but I can’t possibly go to all three domains for now.”

”If you want to go to the Slaughter Blood Domain, you must at least break through to the advanced demon ranks first.” Feng Yao then pointed at Tian Shuixiang. ”He is an asura demon, and he should still be familiar with the situation in that domain, so you can ask him to lead you to that place. As for the Floral Mirage Domain, you must first increase your cultivation until it reaches at least the Celestial Emperor Realm. For Hu Tianlang’s wrath soul, you don’t need to think too much about it, and I’m sure it will come to you on its own in the future.”

Zhang Fei [5] had not given it much thought, particularly because the incident from years ago remained vivid in his memory, despite the passage of time.

A few hours later, cultivators from various races had arrived in the town, but people from the five clans prevented them from entering, especially since many of their members had not yet had their turn to meet with Puyang Shangren.

Although they were disappointed, they had no choice but to wait for their turn. They tried to look for Zhang Fei [5] and the others behind them, but they didn’t know that they had already arrived at the town much earlier than them.

Some of them tried to use their senses to inspect the city, but Xuanyuan Qian and the others forbade them from doing so, and they could only look inside the city when it was their turn.

While waiting for their chance to enter the town, several groups of evil beasts approached it, accompanied by a large army led by various evil mythical ones. Meanwhile, several other groups of beasts went to other areas to carry out their primary missions, one of which was the Eternal Spring Oasis.

Many demon groups, a combination of the nine demon races, also moved towards the town, led by several demons who had reached the 3-Sun Celestial Venerable Realm.

The people from the five clans naturally noticed the movement of those beasts and demons, and they immediately ordered their clan members to intercept and kill them. They did not stay in the main town, and they moved as soon as Xuanyuan Zhuanxu activated the barrier protecting the town. The other towns in the Forbidden Land also activated protective barriers to protect their families.

Feng Yao looked around outside the town. ”As expected, those beasts and demons are indeed targeting Puyang Shangren, and they’re on their way here in large numbers.”

”Do they want to commit suicide? That senior is an ancient being, and he surpasses them in all aspects.” Luo Yunxiao then asked Zhang Fei [5]. ”Are we going to move?”

”Not now.” Zhang Fei [5] calculated their distance through the system’s map. ”Those demons and beasts are still far from our location, and the ancestors of the natives of this domain have already moved to stop them. Therefore, we don’t need to waste our energy attacking them, and we will move if many of them manage to escape and arrive here. However, we have to measure their strength first and don’t move rashly, especially since there are many beasts and demons in the 3-Sun Celestial Venerable Realm now.”

”Youjia.” Long Youjia directly looked at Tianshi Shengjie. ”I want you to help them, but you only need to help them from afar using your void element.”

Long Youjia nodded, flew into the sky, and transformed back into his void dragon form. After that, he quickly flew towards the demons and assisted the people from the five clans in stopping them.

”Hmm?” Zhang Fei [5] was surprised when the Ancient Leiyu Tianlu flew from his shoulder and enlarged himself, and he looked at him as if asking him to go with him.

Feng Yao pushed him forward. ”Go with him, and I will protect you from here.”

”Alright.” Zhang Fei immediately jumped onto the back of the Ancient Leiyu Tianlu, which quickly carried him away from the main town.

”Are you sure it’s okay, Big Sis Yao?”

Feng Yao nodded at her. ”You don’t need to worry about them, Yunxiao. The Ancient Leiyu Tianlu is truly powerful, and those evil mythical beasts are not his opponents.”
