Chapter 313: Chapter 313: Yan Country Office in Beishan District

Inside a camp dormitory, including Feng Xue, a total of twenty people stood in front of a door. Twelve soldiers were paired off and physically contacted the beings as previously assigned.

Feng Xue, on the other hand, grabbed the wrist of one of the beings and began issuing commands as previously discussed.

Due to trust factors, Feng Xue was neither the first nor the last to enter. After three groups of soldiers entered the door, Feng Xue signaled the one he was holding to proceed.

As the door opened, Feng Xue returned once more to the environment of Infinite City that made the beings so comfortable.

At this moment, he stood outside the door. In front of him lay a heap of fallen beings, while the soldiers still battled against other oncoming enemies.

The beings left to guard the door in these small organizations didn’t possess any powerful items, let alone advanced ones like those that ignore defense. They were clearly at a disadvantage against the soldiers, who had considerable skill with the Golden Bell Shield.

However, as combat continued, more and more beings gathered, and all twelve soldiers finally entered Infinite City.

Seeing the swarming beings, the soldiers immediately engaged in battle, while Feng Xue directly unleashed the Hermit Power. The Kaidan Slayer Power was actively released, spreading a strong pressure around like a domineering aura.

"Hmph!" An angry shout suddenly rang out, and a bandage of pale yellow shot towards Feng Xue. But how could Feng Xue, who could directly see through illusory elements, not notice the glaring Kaidan Fire amidst the crowd? Before the bandage could get close, the Yellow Robe behind him moved automatically against the wind, coiling around the bandage and pulling it with force.

With the Yellow Robe Eighteen Falls in effect, a Kaidan was immediately drawn out. Feng Xue reached forward with one hand, precisely gripping the neck of the bandaged Kaidan. Narrowing his eyes slightly, he asked in a gentle yet intimidating voice,

"Give me some face, alright?"

"Stop! Everyone, stop!"

Anyone who could survive in the Four Major Landfills was either extremely strong or extremely cunning, and this "Mummy" was no exception. Upon realizing that he was no match for Feng Xue, he immediately capitulated and ordered his minions to cease fighting.

"Very well, so who is the doorman?" Feng Xue slightly narrowed his eyes. The Mummy frowned and replied,

"Boss, that’s against the rules, right?"

"See these soldiers? I’m not afraid to tell you; they’re all from the real world. You know what the Infinite City values the most right now, correct? To make a fortune in silence or to fight to the bitter end, think it over carefully. Or do you want to be Hundred Tales’ lackey?"

"Gulp..." The Mummy swallowed, glanced at the soldiers who could overpower his elite followers, thought about the current situation in Infinite City, and finally nodded,

"Xing Bing, fetch the doorman!"

"That’s the right choice." Feng Xue casually produced a piece of paper, turned to wave at the Yan Country’s soldiers, and said,

"Are you Wang Xin? You negotiate with him. Once it’s sorted, I’ll notarize it for you guys, and my task will be complete."

"Thank you so much." As the leader of this mission, Wang Xin thanked Feng Xue and then approached the Mummy to start bargaining.

What Yan Country wanted was very simple. It was no different from what Columbia, Victoria, Ussas, and other countries wanted—to set up an office in Infinite City and keep at least one relatively stable door.

Although Yan Country had the all-encompassing martial arts super tales, the upper echelons would never bet everything on this one tale, nor would they become complacent due to a slight early advantage.

As Columbia, Victoria, and other countries began to conquer the tale world, the emergence of Kaidan or Magic Items like the "Martial Arts Buster" would be a disaster for Yan Country.

As for Feng Xue, he was, of course, pleased with this development. Firstly, no tale was more widespread than "People of Yan Country know martial arts," posing no threat to his status. Secondly, even if one did appear, for Feng Xue, who had the "Yan Country People" label, it would be more advantageous than not.

If, in the future, the Yan Country people could come up with tales like "People of Yan Country are all cultivators" or "People of Yan Country are all superpower users," Feng Xue would naturally join in on riding the wave. He would gain superpowers and succeed in cultivation without much effort.

Mummy clearly wasn’t a major tale, nor was he an ambitious figure. Very soon, Wang Xin’s rhetoric left him dizzy. After a series of empty promises and prospects, they finalized a relatively lenient contract. Feng Xue wasn’t surprised, or rather, he sought Chen Xiyao as a negotiation broker to prevent this very situation.

Using the Swearer’s Contract Power to notarize the deal, Feng Xue waited another day, only leaving Beishan District after the courier returned to the real world with the visual evidence.

...

Returning to the Babylon Tower, Feng Xue checked the "Cemetery," rearranging the Kuli Wave, Physical Avatar, Sealed Golden Chest, and other cards before sorting through the equipment he carried. He then proceeded up the stairs to begin challenging the guard.

For him nowadays, the strength of the guard was no longer much of a challenge. After easily sorting out the guards from the eleventh to the twentieth layer, he finally stepped into the eleventh floor’s residential area.

In terms of structure, this area wasn’t substantially different from the first tier of the Babylon Tower. Whether in terms of the distribution of villas, the road facilities, or even the items sold in the shops, there were no distinct differences. If there was any difference, it was that the design of the villas was more peculiar.

It was unclear whether the odd villa designs were intended to prevent challengers from guessing their systems or simply because living this way suited personal aesthetic preferences. However, Feng Xue didn’t care too much. He casually picked a villa seemingly made of White Bone, which looked anything but like a regular home, and knocked lightly on the door—

However, the owner didn’t react as expected,

"Detected homeowner absent from home, activating descent rules. Failure to arrive within five minutes will be considered a forfeiture of the fight, granting the challenger automatic residence rights..."

This unexpected yet inevitable information flowed into Feng Xue’s mind as the challenge space unfolded, prompting him to silently pray that the opponent would appear unclothed like the previous busty lady.

But as he discerned the state of the challenge space, his expression subtly changed.

To be precise, he didn’t fully comprehend the challenge space, as there wasn’t any light within it. The only illumination came from the protective dome that sheltered both contestants before the battle began, allowing him just enough light to barely see the situation outside.

It was an aquatic area, or rather, a deep-sea environment where even sunlight couldn’t reach.

"This is a nasty trick. If a typical challenger can’t adapt to water pressure, they’d probably be finished instantly."

Feng Xue grumbled inwardly, but without further ado, he used the Orca Authority to envelop the pressure capsule, readying himself as the countdown approached its end...
