Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 177 The storm is about to rise
Yellow Wind Valley, the secret place of the Yellow Wind Sect. Legend has it that the Yellow Wind Hermit obtained a wisp of spiritual wind here, which greatly improved his cultivation. Later, it gradually became the headquarters of the Yellow Wind Sect.

"Master, Zhuang Tianxing is dead. He died at the hands of that Frost Flood Dragon..."

"In addition, the Frost Dragon also attacked Wujin Mountain and broke through the Zhuang family's protective formation on its own. According to our scouts, the Zhuang family suffered heavy casualties in this battle."

Before a round mirror, Black King Kong and Flower Lady, who served as the left and right protectors, were recounting information related to Jiang Chen. At this moment, a blurry figure was quietly listening in the mirror; it was none other than Huang Feng Sanren.

Witnessing Zhuang Tianxing's death in Yanqiu and realizing the gravity of the situation, Black King Kong and Flower Lady rushed back to Yellow Wind Valley immediately. They used emergency measures to contact Yellow Wind Hermit, the sect leader. However, although they acted quickly, Jiang Chen acted even faster.

They had barely returned to Yellow Wind Valley when they received news that Jiang Chen had broken through Black Gold Mountain.

"Zhuang Tianxing was actually killed by a dragon, and this dragon even went up to Wujin Mountain, specifically seeking to bring trouble upon the Zhuang family..."

After listening to the reports from Black King Kong and Flower Lady, Huang Feng Sanren fell into deep thought.

He and Zhuang Tianxing were old rivals. Although his own magic was mediocre and nothing to boast about, his black gold blade was truly sharp. Before his own magic weapon was upgraded to a top-grade magic weapon, he always had to be wary of that black gold blade.

Even now, although he has enough strength to defeat Zhuang Tianxing, it is still not easy for Zhuang to leave and for him to keep him here.

"Flower Maiden, what are your thoughts on this Frost Dragon...?"

His gaze shifted, and Huang Feng Sanren looked at Hua Niangzi.

Upon hearing this, Lady Hua frowned slightly.

"Reporting to the Master, judging from the current situation, this Frost Dragon must have concealed some of its strength before. Zhuang Tianxing, unaware of its power, ran into it and lost his life. In addition, its act of directly attacking Wujin Mountain suggests that it is a powerful but vengeful entity."

In a soft voice, Lady Hua expressed her opinion, which aligned with the common stereotype of dragons: cunning, fierce, and vengeful.

Upon hearing this, Huang Feng Sanren remained noncommittal.

"Next, you should gather information about this Frost Dragon, and try to find out its background. However, we should not provoke it for the time being. I have important matters to attend to, and it will take some time before I can return to Changfeng County."

After a moment's thought, Huang Feng Sanren made a decision.

Upon hearing this, Lady Flower and Black King Kong immediately bowed and agreed.

"Master, if we leave Frost Flood Dragon aside for now, what about the Zhuang family? Now that Zhuang Tianxing is dead and the Wujin Mountain formation has been broken, the Zhuang family is in its most chaotic state. If we make a move now, we might get some good results."

With a deep, resonant voice, Black King Kong asked the question that concerned him.

At present, although Frost Flood Dragon has emerged as a dark horse, Zhuang Jia is the biggest stumbling block on the Yellow Wind Sect's path forward. After all, although Frost Flood Dragon is strong, it is just a lone dragon. On Flame Hill, apart from Frost Flood Dragon, there are only a few other creatures, which are not a threat at all.

The Zhuang family is different; they are a large and well-established family. With him around, the cultivation families in Changfeng County can unite as one.

Upon hearing Black King Kong's words, Huang Feng Sanren fell into deep thought, constantly weighing the pros and cons.

After a moment, he shook his head.

"Don't do anything for now. Something big is going to happen during this period. Being too high-profile may not be a good thing. Keep a low profile for now and just maintain the tense situation in Changfeng County."

With a meaningful look, Huang Feng Sanren gave a word of advice. Upon hearing this, Black King Kong and Flower Lady were immediately startled.

A major event? What kind of major event could make Huang Feng Sanren take it so seriously, or rather, be so cautious? As the left and right protectors of the Huang Feng Sect, they had a deep understanding of Huang Feng Sanren's strength.

Not only did he cultivate mid-grade true qi, but he also perfected the spells Flying Sand and Moving Stones. He also possessed a top-grade magic weapon. Most importantly, he had a fortuitous encounter and refined a strange spiritual wind. At the perfected level of Qi Refining, Huang Feng Sanren's combat power was top-notch.

It's truly rare to see someone like Huang Feng Sanren so cautious.

"Yes, Master."

Seeing that Huang Feng Sanren would not say anything more, Hei Jingang and Hua Niangzi also refrained from asking any further questions.

Seeing this, Huang Feng Sanren nodded and severed all contact.

"Flower Maiden, do you think there might be a Dao Foundation cultivator this time...?"

Seeing that Huang Feng Sanren's figure had disappeared from within the round mirror, Hei Jingang couldn't help but speak.

Upon hearing this, Lady Hua's face also turned solemn.

In Changfeng County today, although the Yellow Wind Sect is powerful, the higher-ups of the Yellow Wind Sect have always had a hidden worry in their hearts: whether a Foundation Establishment cultivator will take action against the Yellow Wind Sect.

Faced with true Dao Foundation cultivators, the Yellow Wind Sect is now nothing but a facade, utterly vulnerable.

They boarded this ship for two reasons: first, they had no other choice; and second, they vaguely sensed Huang Feng Sanren's extraordinary abilities. However, regardless of the reason, when they realized that a Dao Foundation cultivator might make a move next, they couldn't help but feel worried.

Although in most cases, Dao Foundation cultivators will not interfere in these matters, since the chaos in Nan Jing Kingdom is actually determined by Dao Foundation cultivators, and the chaos caused by Qi Refining cultivators can only be considered minor disturbances, it is better to be safe than sorry. If they really encounter such a situation, they will not be able to escape.

"Regardless of whether it's true or not, let's both keep a low profile from now on and leave everything to the people below."

In a soft voice, Lady Hua offered her suggestion.

Upon hearing this, Black King Kong nodded solemnly, his face showing agreement. It was reasonable for Huang Feng Sanren to entrust the matter to them, and for them to then pass the task on to their subordinates.

Soon, the two began to act separately. After separating from Black King Kong, standing on a high platform, Flower Lady turned her gaze toward the direction of Qingyuan County.

"Where is the eye of the storm? What exactly happened there that could possibly have drawn the attention of a Foundation Establishment cultivator?"

Seeing the mountains and water blending into one, a scene of tranquility, Lady Hua fell into deep thought.

Although Huang Feng Sanren concealed his identity well, after spending a long time with him, she still began to suspect his true identity. However, she rationally did not delve into it, nor did she tell anyone, including Hei Jingang.

She knew perfectly well that Huang Feng Sanren, who had disappeared at this moment, was probably in Qingyuan County. And since he was unable to return even after Zhuang Tianxing's death, it was most likely related to the major event that was about to happen.

"These are truly turbulent times, but for someone like me with such a background, if I don't give it my all, there's still a chance to advance further."

Withdrawing her gaze and letting out a soft sigh, Lady Hua stopped thinking about it and concealed herself.
