Chapter 394 - 394 342 Welcoming the Arrival of the Holy

Chapter 394: Chapter 342 Welcoming the Arrival of the Holy Envoy! (4k)_2 Chapter 394: Chapter 342 Welcoming the Arrival of the Holy Envoy! (4k)_2 He was actually making preparations for the current situation; Nanling Prefecture’s location was too poor, and its resources were mediocre, making it unsuitable as a main base of operations.

And his goal, as previously mentioned, was clear from the current state of affairs: the court was already in decline, and no one knew if one day the house would collapse.

He had to prepare early.

The Taoist Divine Palace was one of these preparations, and cultivating his own force was the second.

Chen Yuan did not mind having control over a region; to be a prince, a duke, a general, or a minister… as long as one had the seed of ambition!

Under Du Ming’s control, the resources that previously belonged to various Jianghu forces had now been integrated, a substantial pool of assets, valuable indeed.

After weighing his options, the first deal was made with a force in Blood State, eight hundred li away at Liangshan Water Village!

Chen Yuan had long heard of this group, first from the mouth of Miao Renfeng, who had once expressed a desire to become a minor leader there, holding it in high regard.

Latterly, Chen Yuan had learned more about this group.

They had a grand reputation in Blood State, positioned between Immortal Sects and peak forces, reportedly with many powerful and predominantly vicious individuals.

Furthermore, their ambition was not small, as they were continuously recruiting soldiers and horses, amassing strength…

The resources provided by Tangshan Prefecture were only one part; the group’s needs were too great for just one prefecture to satisfy, but Chen Yuan was not exclusively supplying this one major buyer.

Besides this, he was also seeking out other smaller buyers, firstly to lower risks and secondly to spread his influence…

These tasks were all proceeding in an orderly fashion.

He was just grasping an overview; his main focus remained on his cultivation.

These days had been busily tight, between contemplating the essence of Martial Arts and studying Saber Technique, as well as practicing Body Refinement techniques, his strength was improving in another way.

One day, while in the midst of cultivation, Chen Yuan was disturbed by someone.

The efforts of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau had finally paid off, locating the whereabouts of the No-Life Sect demons.

Inside the Heavenly Patrol Hall.

Chen Yuan looked solemnly at Yue Shan and the others before him, instructing them to report in detail.

Yue Shan rose to his feet, and with respectful voice informed Chen Yuan: now the traces of the No-Life Sect demons were found, and they were not elsewhere but within Tangshan Prefecture City itself!

With a cold gaze, Chen Yuan stated word by word:

“These demons really do not know whether they’re alive or dead!”

Indeed, while Chen Yuan’s side was searching for the whereabouts of the No-Life Sect demons, they had never expected that the adversaries would be hiding right inside the prefecture city.

It was like the old immortal asking to be hanged, utterly tired of living.

“Where exactly are they located?”

Chen Yuan asked with a heavy tone.

Yue Shan reported that, according to their investigation, they were currently in a sparsely populated area in North City. This trace was uncovered by someone in the prison who could not bear the torture and divulged the information.

They were initially skeptical about the possibility being in North City, as they felt they had thoroughly searched the entire prefecture city previously, which naturally included North City.

However, harboring a stroke of luck, Mo Donghe and the others still went and checked again, hidden from view, and this time they indeed found some trace.

After that, Mo Donghe ordered to seal the information. No one was allowed to leave without reason, and he went to Yue Shan, reporting the matter to Chen Yuan.

“North City…”

Chen Yuan’s brow furrowed, surmising some possibilities in his mind.

Having found no news after several previous searches, how did they easily find something this time? Could there be an issue? Subconsciously, he speculated a lot.

Chen Yuan took a long time to scrutinize everyone, let alone these demons.

Seeing their lord silent and not speaking, Yue Shan and the others said nothing, just quietly waiting.

After a moment, Chen Yuan stood up and commanded:

“Send the order, all Heavenly Patrol Guards to assemble. Surround the area within three kilometers of where the No-Life Sect demons were detected, and let not even a fly escape!”

“Yes, your subordinate obeys the order!”

“Yes, your subordinate obeys the order!”

Several Heavenly Patrol Envoys immediately stood up in response.

Touching the two Dan Talismans in his sleeve, Chen Yuan squinted his eyes slightly, pondering to himself that no matter what schemes these guys had, everything would be worry-free with the Dan Talismans.

Even if the opponent had a Dan Realm Master among them, Chen Yuan was confident he could severely injure the other party.

If one Dan Talisman was not enough, then two would be used!

This was the source of his confidence, after all, if the opponent had intentionally revealed their trail, then even if Chen Yuan did not lead people to encircle them, the opponent would still rise up and attack, besieging the Heavenly Patrol Bureau.

In that case, even if he eliminated the opponent, it would bring no honor to his face.

As for the possibility that the opponent had not intentionally revealed themselves, but it was merely a coincidence – that would be even simpler and exactly to Chen Yuan’s liking, to directly eliminate them!

At Chen Yuan’s command, all the Heavenly Patrol Guards mobilized, moving to North City with the utmost speed.

At the same time, Chen Yuan sent someone to deliver a message to Du Ming, asking him to bring troops as soon as possible, while he himself arrived with overwhelming momentum.

The commoners on both sides of the road quickly moved aside, whispering among themselves about what the government was up to. Hadn’t the matter been settled before? Why the intense urgency again?

Hundreds of Heavenly Patrol Guards, clad in Black Cloud Clothing, with Yan Ling Sabers at their waists, surrounded the location mentioned by Yue Shan in just a short moment.

The area of several thousand meters was tightly sealed off.

Unless the opponent had tunnels underground, there would be no escape.

But this wasn’t Old North Jing, with all its myriad tunnels…

Where they looked, was a large, grandiose estate, albeit one that was already dilapidated. It was evidently no humble abode, but given that now mainly commoners lived in North City, it no longer had any value.

As Chen Yuan and the Heavenly Patrol Guards appeared, the followers of the No-Life Sect within the dilapidated estate noticed them. At a command, a thunderous ‘boom boom’ sound erupted.

The surrounding walls of the courtyard collapsed on the spot, and the ground cracked. Subsequently, blood-red lines lit up from the ground, and the stench of blood began to spread.

Figures soared into the air, directly landing in front of Chen Yuan and his men.

There were at least a hundred black-robed individuals, their faces obscured, but the aura they exuded was not weak, even comparable to the elite disciples of the Blood Saber Sect.

There were over ten individuals with Gang Condensation cultivation.

These people were silent as puppets, not waiting for Chen Yuan to say a word. A rough voice thundered through the void: “Chen Yuan, you dare defy the Holy Sect and speak insolence, truly a capital offense. If you agree to submit today, I can spare your life. Otherwise, today next year will be the anniversary of your death.”

The confident voice boomed, audible for miles around.

Chen Yuan let out a cold laugh,

“What Holy Sect, it’s nothing but a bunch of rats in hiding. How dare you make such wild claims? Did you not just want to lure this envoy here?

I am here, now what do you intend to do?”

The situation was now crystal clear. The opponent had deliberately revealed their location to lure him near, but what of it? Chen Yuan was not afraid in the slightest.

He had killed ten Reach Profound cultivators before and wouldn’t mind killing more today.

Moreover, with the protection of Dan Talismans, what did he have to fear?

If the enemy was truly that powerful, there would be no need for them to resort to such trickery. They would simply come straight to the Heavenly Patrol Bureau. They were nothing but a bunch of rubbish playing at being ghosts and gods.

“Arrogance!”

The person seemed to be infuriated and bellowed angrily.

Not far away, more than a hundred disciples of the No-Life Sect, holding various weapons, knelt on one knee with synchrony and proclaimed,

“A homeland beyond the void, parents born of void. When the Red Sun’s calamity ends, the White Sun shall rise. To restore the Divine Sect and unify Jianghu.”

After chanting their slogan, the crowd continued,

“We welcome the Holy Envoy’s arrival!”

As their voices faded, the blood-colored lines that initially lit up on the ground interwove into a blood-colored Divine Bridge in the void, followed by,

An extremely terrifying presence descended from the void.

It was an aura far surpassing the Reach Profound Realm, causing Chen Yuan, with his two Sword Talismans at the ready and a slightly somber expression, to focus his gaze as he braced for action.

A man in a blood-colored long robe with a robust figure and a face sporting a scar, the Holy Envoy Yang himself, stared at Chen Yuan as he thundered,

“Chen Yuan, do you know your crimes!”
