Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Chapter 423: Chapter 9 Wanted Notice

One month later, Lin Feng and Fire Kirin returned to Red Fire Country from West State Country.

...

As for the old man, Rou’er, and Little Yunyun, Lin Feng had already arranged them properly and sent them to the old man’s cousins.

The old escort was a straightforward person; he was very happy to see his old cousin bringing two granddaughters to stay with him.

Lin Feng left the old man, Rou’er, and Little Yunyun one million taels in silver notes, telling them to keep it as they might need it in the future.

He also gave the old escort 100,000 taels of silver to help them look after the three of them.

Seeing that Lin Feng was generous and had a deep and powerful aura, the old escort noticed the tender look Rou’er gave Lin Feng and guessed there might be a close relationship between them. He solemnly agreed to take care of them. Naturally straightforward, he would have taken great care of them even without the 100,000 taels of silver, much less with such a reward.

...

Now, Lin Feng was taking a rest in ”Red Cloud City” within Red Fire Country.

He and Fire Kirin were walking on the street when they saw a crowd gathering around a notice in the distance; Lin Feng and Fire Kirin also went over.

But they saw the notice bore a portrait of a young nobleman.

”Whoever reports the whereabouts of this man will be rewarded with 100,000 taels of silver, and whoever captures this man will be rewarded with 100,000 gold coins.”

A single gold coin was enough for a family of three to live on for a month; 100,000 gold coins were indeed a massive fortune.

Many people started discussing, guessing who the wanted young man might be.

”Hey, isn’t this me? Qingyang Sect is hunting me down.” Lin Feng frowned slightly.

The reach of Qingyang Sect was obviously great, as the message had been released in several neighboring countries, and Lin Feng’s bounty was everywhere.

Lin Feng had no fondness for Qingyang Sect. Although he had conflicts with them before, it wasn’t serious animosity. However, after the Yin Yang Realm Death Soldier from Qingyang Sect attempted to assassinate him, Lin Feng learned that the high echelons of Qingyang Sect had been secretly practicing ”Evil Demon Skill.”

Qingyang Sect went to great lengths to issue a bounty for him, likely worrying that he would expose the top echelons’ practice of the Evil Demon Skill, which would surely bring endless trouble to Qingyang Sect.

Lin Feng touched his chin and muttered, ”Since you have no mercy, don’t blame me for being unrighteous.”

”Look quick, isn’t this youngster the one wanted in the notice?”

Suddenly, someone pointed at Lin Feng and shouted.

”Shush...”

Many people turned their heads all at once and showed a look of surprise upon seeing Lin Feng.

Obviously, they had never expected the person Qingyang Sect was looking for to be right beside them.

”Catch him and claim the reward of 100,000 gold.” A cultivator shouted loudly, trying to use the crowd to capture Lin Feng.

”Hmph, those who don’t want to die might as well try!”

Lin Feng said coldly.

As his words fell, a fearsome ”Trend” emanated from his body.

Feeling the ”Trend” radiating from Lin Feng, many faces turned pale, and they were secretly shocked by his formidable strength.

”Let’s go,” Lin Feng said to Fire Kirin.

Whoosh.

Fire Kirin jumped onto Lin Feng’s shoulder and Lin Feng spread his Golden Body Feathered Wings, flying towards the outskirts of the city.

”Has he appeared? Very well...” A pair of sinister eyes peeked from the tavern not far away, watching Lin Feng leave.

Not long after, news quickly spread throughout Red Fire Country.

The news was about the high echelons of the Qingyang Sect practicing the Evil Demon Skill.

Upon hearing this, the leaders of the Qingyang Sect flew into a rage, naturally suspecting Lin Feng had spread the news.

The Qingyang Sect hurriedly sent people to suppress the information. Although assisted by the royalty of Red Fire Country, they were too late. The news spread rapidly through Red Fire Country to various parts of East County Divine Land and even to other states.

The Martial Soul Hall of East County Divine Land had already sent people to investigate the matter.

Among the three top-level forces of the Heavenly Martial Continent’s Three Thousand States, Martial Soul Hall was one, even mightier than the Ancient Dynasty and the Ancient Sacred Land.

These three major forces were ”Martial Soul Hall,” ”Spirit Array Master Guild,” and ”Alchemist Guild.”

These forces represented legacies that spanned every major era.

The Spirit Array Master Guild and the Alchemist Guild, needless to say, were the most prestigious assemblies of Spirit Array Masters and Alchemists.

As for Martial Soul Hall, it was naturally related to ”Martial Soul.” This particular force was very distinctive, a neutral force elected by countless other forces as the ”Overseer of the Realm.”

What did ”Overseer of the Realm” mean?

For instance, where a Demon caused chaos, which force colluded with the Demon Dao, or which forces appeared righteous but were engaging in horrific acts just like the Demon Forces behind closed doors, and so forth—these were the responsibilities of Martial Soul Hall, to supervise the realm. Although Martial Soul Hall did not have the direct authority to command the various forces, its investigations were crucial to them. If Martial Soul Hall were to categorize Qingyang Sect as an Evil Demon Sect, then the combined forces would annihilate Qingyang Sect.

Such was the duty of Martial Soul Hall. Of course, this force was exceptionally fair, and its impartiality was why it was recognized by all major forces.

...

Now that Martial Soul Hall had appeared within the boundaries of Red Fire Country to commence investigations on Qingyang Sect, it was enough to keep the sect extremely occupied.

Lin Feng and Fire Kirin were resting in a forest.

”Should we still go to Qingyang Sect to see Zixiao’s sister?” Fire Kirin asked.

Lin Feng sighed and said, ”I didn’t expect things with Qingyang Sect to turn so sour. However, Qingyang Sect is no good bunch. Heading to Qingyang now would mean walking right into a trap.”

”In that case, let’s turn back,” Fire Kirin said.

Lin Feng thought for a moment and then said, ”I promised Zixiao I’d look after his sister. I don’t know what situation she’s in now. Even if Qingyang Sect is a dragon’s lair and a tiger’s den, I must go see for myself.”

Fire Kirin nodded and said, ”That’s simple, just wear a straw hat.”

Fire Kirin’s suggestion was definitely useful.

”Boom...”

Just then, a terrifying aura emanated from afar.

Swiftly approaching Lin Feng’s position.

Fire Kirin said, ”A powerful being is coming, seems like they are targeting you.”

Lin Feng nodded and dashed toward the distance, but he could not escape in time.

Two cultivators controlling an Ancient War Chariot charged toward him.

The Ancient War Chariot was extraordinary, radiating a dense Yin Sha Qi, like a Demon Weapon emerging from hell.

Standing on the War Chariot were two middle-aged cultivators with sinister faces who sneered upon seeing Lin Feng.

They swooped down from the Ancient Battlefield and encircled Lin Feng.

”Boy, there’s no escape...”

The chilling voice suddenly resonated throughout the forest while one cultivator’s right claw struck forward.

Swoosh.

A claw glow formed swiftly, aiming directly at Lin Feng’s chest.
