Exploding God

Chapter 1175 Those who carry firewood for the masses should not be allowed to be extinguished by wind and snow.

[Just like that, you left?]

Manager Xie stood stiffly on the back of the wooden-crowned crane, letting the fierce airflow sweep past his side, making his sparse hair stand out clearly.

He stared blankly at the back of the figure with his hands behind his back, his mind flashing back to the scene when he left Tantai Manor, which was probably the most glorious moment of his life.

When thousands of core members of the Tantai family spontaneously lined up on both sides to pay their respects, the shock was enough to be remembered for a lifetime!

He, Xie Zhe, the steward of the Song family, should be the first person in the Song family in a thousand years to enjoy this treatment, and he is also the only member of the Song family present who saw the whole process of Mr. Lu's move!

One can only imagine the glory that will be upon his return to his clan!

The reason for my sigh wasn't anything else, but mainly because I didn't stay long enough. The enjoyment came too quickly, and I left before I could properly savor it.

A gust of cold wind blew past his head, and Manager Xie shivered, quickly pulling himself back from his reverie. He respectfully asked the figure in front of him, "Mr. Lu, shall we go somewhere else?"

"No need."

Lu Ze's calm gaze was profound, as if it had traveled thousands of miles to the other side of an endless barrier.

A living Tantai Dapan and a stable Tantai family are the best deterrent to this continent.

The three-year agreement was enough to motivate the Song family to spare no effort during those three years.

When the stability of the Tantai family and the prosperity of the Song family are achieved simultaneously, the families and martial artists of the Wuyuan Continent will take the initiative to become the maintainers of the rules, which will also bring three years of golden development to humanity.

Of course, there will inevitably be some minor hiccups, but they will ultimately be harmless and may even have a catfish effect.

At this point, only one thing remained for Wuyuan Riku: Yunxue's father...

Lu Ze tapped his fingers lightly behind his back, the contemplation in his eyes gradually turning into calm.

This is the deepest hidden line of the Great Xia in the Wuyuan Continent. Since the other party has not taken the initiative to contact us, it can only mean that the time is not yet right.

An answer gradually emerged—Yunxue's father was very likely the original torchbearer.

Lu Ze always held those pioneers who left no trace until their demise in high esteem.

"Those who carry firewood for the masses should not be left to freeze to death in the wind and snow."

In a barely audible muttering to himself, his hand quietly clenched into a fist, steady and powerful.

……

……

A breeze begins with a ripple on the water, and a wave is formed from a gentle ripple.

The matter of the Tantai Martial Arts Arena was originally only discussed among the Tantai tribe members within a small circle. However, when Tantai Dapan's blood-stained, century-old clan precepts were spread throughout the entire tribe word for word, this matter, which was originally kept within a small circle, finally spread and swept across the Mist Plains in an unexpected manner.

"All members of my Tantai clan give the Song family the utmost leeway!"

"Anyone who has a dispute with the Song family will be expelled from the family."

"Every member of my Tantai clan can become a dragon or a phoenix; the Hidden Martial Pavilion is now completely open to all members of the clan!"

"In martial arts cultivation, the strong are respected, and family resources will be redistributed."

"A century-old blood feud—everyone in the clan, young and old, bears a responsibility!"

The direct and collateral branches of the Tantai family are scattered throughout the Wuyuan Continent, totaling about 50,000 people. This number is not large, but as the most powerful family in the past twenty years, the Tantai family has gathered a million or more vassal families around them!

Therefore, the news from Tantai's ancestral home spread exponentially after a brief period of fermentation.

——【Lu Ze】!

This simple name, upon its very first appearance, immediately became a shadow looming over the entire Tantai family, a towering mountain standing before every member of the Tantai clan.

The powerful Tantai family spared no expense and was willing to spend a century to seek revenge!

How terrifying!

A ruthless and unparalleled figure appeared atop Bijia Mountain, driving the entire Tantai family into a frenzy.

This was the news that finally reached the secular world after being repeated more than ten times. The name Lu Ze became a taboo in the upper echelons of martial arts on Wuyuan Continent and did not spread with the news.

The Tantai family's frenzied cultivation of their members and their willingness to allocate resources to gifted individuals at any cost shocked everyone.

When another brief message followed, the onlookers scattered throughout the Misty Plains, each with their own thoughts, simultaneously broke out in a cold sweat—

[The ancient town of Song rises from the ground, with the loyal bones of Tantai serving as its symbol!]

One bombshell after another broke out, leaving the onlookers who had been just waiting to see what happened completely bewildered. But before they could investigate further, they were shocked to discover that, led by the three major families of Song, Gu, and Changsun, various forces were starting to build infrastructure at a frenzy and were paying huge sums of money to send their family members to Song's new town for training!

Martial arts flourish, first come, first served; those who come late will be left with nothing.

Martial arts training is a matter of vital interest to every martial artist, and given the urgency of the situation, onlookers rushed in.

The dramatic changes in the Tantai family and the news of the peerless ruthless person were ultimately quietly hidden in this tumultuous wave of cultivation.

……

Kirihara Land, a deep abyss somewhere.

Damp, dark, and dangerous are the best adjectives to describe it.

This harsh environment is so remote that not only are humans rarely seen, but even giant beasts are seldom found. The only creatures that live here are strange and bizarre beings that no one in the world has ever seen before.

In recent days, news of the sudden changes in the landscape of Wuyuan Land, whether it was the earth-shattering blow of Song's New Town, the towering giant hand on the top of Bijia Mountain, or the news of Lin Qiguang knocking on the door of Longyang Fortress alone... all of them were accompanied by the sound of footsteps and reached the figure sitting quietly in the ley line cave.

Soft, cold light emanated from the damp wall, outlining the angular face of the middle-aged man. Perhaps due to years of lack of sunlight, his skin appeared somewhat pale, but his deep, ocean-like eyes exuded the same heroic spirit as Lin Yunxue.

"Sir, that's all the news." The upright figure bowed slightly, standing respectfully to the side.

The man sitting quietly glanced at Lin Qiguang's message for a moment before looking away, eventually focusing on the news about the ancient land.

His fingertips tapped lightly on the stone table, producing a rhythmic, soft sound.

About two minutes later, his voice rang out softly, gentle yet inspiring.

"The dissipating chaotic force field...is it ending in this way?"

It seemed as if he were talking to himself, or perhaps to the young man standing silently before him.

Upon hearing this, the young man looked up, his eyes bright. "He has the young lady's keepsake. Should he show himself?"

The cave was silent for two or three seconds. Then the figure shook its head and said softly, "We are non-existent beings."

The cold light on the wall changed subtly, like breathing, and the gentle sound eventually faded into silence along with the soft light.

"Our forefathers endured the hardships of several generations to achieve a century of peace. We are merely repeating their path; it is not our time to be here. For us, the best outcome would be if it had never existed."

"Also, there's no need to collect any more information about Lin Qiguang."

"……yes."

The young man's figure disappeared into the darkness.

Outside the cave, lightning rolled across the ground, and the desolation remained unchanged.

……

……

In a canyon in the Jingyang Mountains, lush vegetation blocks out the sunlight.

Lin Qiguang, dressed in tattered clothes, leaned against the side of the bottomless cliff, his feet resting on the hilt of a knife, the blade of which was deeply embedded in the cliff face.

The Zhao family's hidden martial power in Jingyang Mountain is far greater than that of Longyang Fortress.

From initial ease to later dishevelment, and then to seven or eight more wounds on his body... he was no longer as dashing as he had been at the beginning.

He held the crimson jade coin he had stolen from the Zhao family warrior, silently absorbing its pure star source power. He looked up at the gloomy sky hidden by the dense vines and frowned.

"The traces of the cyclone are too chaotic. The deeper we go, the more chaotic the flow of the stellar energy becomes. So, where exactly is the pattern...?"

"If we can't find it soon, we'll be surrounded by those hyenas."

"Those good-for-nothings from the Tantai family, they don't even care about news of their eldest son anymore?"

Feeling his strength returning, Lin Qiguang finally couldn't help but curse out loud, provoking the Zhao family's previous contingency plan, which had mysteriously disappeared without a trace.

This has put him in an unprecedentedly passive position!
