Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

"Master, are you done with your work?"

Ye Qingyun kept a close eye on Han Feng's situation. When she saw him putting away his writing materials, she came over to help him tidy up.

"Recently, another large-scale black storm occurred in the Black Plains in the southwest, and many local vagrants perished in it."

Han Feng told the other party about the unpleasant things he had just reviewed.

Although he has the ability to quell every black storm, he cannot devote all his energy to such matters.

If every storm goes unchecked, the ultimate losses will be unavoidable and will only grow larger.

"This is something that cannot be prevented by human effort."

Ye Qingyun comforted her.

Black storms are a natural phenomenon formed by the power of heaven and earth.

The immense power of nature is difficult for individual cultivators to resist.

Even a Douhuang powerhouse can only borrow a portion of the power of heaven and earth.

To stop the Black Storm, at least a Dou Zong level expert is needed.

However, there are not many Dou Zong powerhouses left in the Black Corner Region.

"It is indeed difficult to stop it at the root, but it is much easier to make adjustments at the local level."

"What does the master mean?"

“Establish a thoroughfare in the Black Plains, plant vegetation along the way to nourish the earth, improve the environment, reduce the probability of black storms, and set up different stations to build early warning devices for black storms.”

"That sounds like a huge project."

Ye Qingyun said.

"We have to start eventually, let's take it one step at a time."

The two packed their things and prepared to rest.

“Master, I learned a secret technique in the Flower Sect that can stimulate the vitality of plants and make them grow rapidly.”

"so smart."

This effect sounds similar to the Flame of Life, both of which accelerate ripening.

"However, it only works on low to mid-level plants; it's not as effective on high-level plants."

"That's enough. After all, it's just clearing a path, so we don't need any high-grade medicinal herbs."

Han Feng arrived at the rest room of the city lord's mansion.

There are plenty of rooms available, so you don't need to worry about not having enough room.

"By the way, Qingyun, I have something good for you."

Before parting, Han Feng placed a blue energy-shaped scroll in Ye Qingyun's hand.

"This is the insight of a great senior on the Great Dao of Wood. If you study it carefully when you get back, you should be able to gain a lot."

"Thank you, Master."

Han Feng waved his hand.

"Get some rest. With your current soul power, you should take a break after each attempt at enlightenment."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingyun became curious about what Han Feng had given her.

The two entered their respective rest rooms, and after closing the doors, the vast city lord's mansion fell silent once more.

Ye Qingyun quickly finished washing up, then sat down in a chair and opened the scroll that Han Feng had given her.

"Azure Dragon... Is this something from the beast race?"

Ye Qingyun was slightly surprised.

She suppressed her thoughts and continued reading.

Before she knew it, a quarter of an hour had passed. Ye Qingyun shook her head groggily, feeling as if she had learned something new.

"Master was right after all. I got completely dizzy after just one look."

Ye Qingyun packed her things away, then collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep.

On the other side, Han Feng was studying how to make a device to warn of the black storm. He glanced in the direction of Ye Qingyun's room and smiled.

"It collapsed already?"

Fortunately, he only selected some simple key points of insight; if he had given the complete set, he would have fainted after just one glance.

The inheritance of the Four Divine Beasts is not something that just anyone can comprehend.

The night passed.

The morning light shone on Ye Qingyun's bed. She subconsciously stretched and squinted at the scenery outside the window.

Suddenly, she sat up straight.

I overslept...

After quickly washing up, Ye Qingyun went downstairs to Han Feng's office in the City Lord's Mansion.

"woke up."

Han Feng looked at Ye Qingyun.

"Sorry, Master, I overslept."

"It's normal, just an adaptation process when the soul power exceeds the tolerance limit."

Han Feng said.

"Go keep Qinglin company. There's nothing to do today, so you don't need to wait."

Ye Qingyun blushed slightly, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"You go first, I'll go later."

Han Feng said this.

Ye Qingyun nodded and turned to walk out the door.

After a while, someone came to report from outside the door.

"Lord, Commander Han has returned and is waiting outside for an audience."

"Let him in."

About ten seconds later, Han Lie entered the room and bowed respectfully to Han Feng.

"master!"

Han Feng glanced at Han Lie. His appearance hadn't changed much from back then, and his cultivation level was Seven-Star Dou Huang, showing considerable progress.

"I heard you went to Black Seal City on business?"

"Yes, Yuan Yi, the leader of the Eight Doors, openly violated the laws and regulations you promulgated, causing a very bad influence, so I went to suppress him."

Black Seal City is a large city with a consistently high volume of trade, largely due to its advantageous geographical location. Anyone traveling from the west of the Northwest Continent would inevitably pass through Black Seal City.

Therefore, Black Seal City, on a certain level, symbolizes the atmosphere of the Black Corner Region.

Yuan Yi openly gathered his troops and clashed with passing merchants, resulting in many deaths.

Fengcheng will definitely take action on this.

Needless to say.

"What is the specific situation?"

Han Feng asked.

Without knowing the full picture, he couldn't draw any conclusions.

"According to the investigation, this should be a power struggle between the Eight Doors and the Earth Flame Sect. The merchant who went to Black Seal City was sent by the Earth Flame Sect, and his original goal was to provoke a melee between the two sides."

"In the end, it is still a battle for power."

With most of the Black Corner Region unified and various forces joining, the number of slots available for discussions in Maple City is quite limited.

Neither the Eight Doors nor the Earth Flame Sect were originally qualified to participate in the Maple City Council.

They certainly had the strength, but not enough, and they didn't contribute to the rise of the new regime; they joined forces later.

Therefore, they can only be allowed entry if they develop their cities through hard power and exceed the standards.

For the Black Corner Region now, having the right to hold meetings in Maple City has become a very honorable thing.

This means you have truly become the master of the Black Corner Domain.

Even if it's just a small part, it's still incredibly precious.

"How is the result?"

"Your subordinate has apprehended the leaders of the Eight Gates and the Earth Flame Sect, and they are awaiting your judgment."

"How should this be handled according to the law?"

"His private property was confiscated, and he was imprisoned in Maple Castle for twenty years."

Twenty years is neither a long nor a short time for a cultivator. If one focuses on cultivation, it will pass quickly. This punishment is relatively lenient.

In times of chaos, harsh measures are necessary; among other laws, there are many that are even more severe.

"Just do it."

"Yes!"

After answering Han Feng's question, Han Lie took out a storage ring from his pocket. "Master, this is a private treasure belonging to the leaders of the two factions."

The Maple Forest Guards are quite adept at extorting money and resources, after all, that's what they used to do.

With a slight thought, Han Feng's storage ring flew to his front. He figured that the treasures of two Dou Huangs wouldn't be anything special.

Han Feng glanced at it casually, and was about to have it stored in the Maple City Treasury when his pupils suddenly contracted.

Swish!

A fragment of a map flew out of the storage ring and landed neatly on the table.

Han Feng stared intently at the incomplete map, and after a moment, he smiled softly.

"It's really fate. I didn't expect that I would run into this today when I was just thinking about it yesterday."

Han Feng picked up the incomplete map and placed it in the sunlight. On it was a strange lotus flower pattern that slowly emitted a pink glow.

The third fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame map is in my hands!

There is a saying that goes well.

It’s not a waste of time to break through the iron shoes.

Now, Han Feng has all three fragments in his hands, and he knows the future whereabouts of the only remaining one.

In this way, the map of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame can be collected.

It remains to be seen whether the Pure Lotus Demon Flame will escape from everyone's grasp this time, now that Han Feng has the complete map.

"You did a good job. Go down and collect your reward later."

"Thank you, Master!"

Han Lie bowed respectfully again, then quietly withdrew.

Han Feng's smile lingered for a long time, thinking that he should reward Han Lie properly this time.

If he hadn't inadvertently gone to carry out the suppression operation, this fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame map might have missed the chance to meet Han Feng.

Overjoyed at his stroke of luck, Han Feng took out some high-grade medicinal herbs from his storage ring, preparing to immediately refine some pills to reward his subordinates who had participated in this operation.

Chapter 240 Sisters' Showdown

Taking advantage of the early morning, Han Feng finished refining the pills. For him, this was a piece of cake.

With the third fragment in hand, Han Feng no longer needed to bother searching for it.

He pieced together the three fragments of the map, and the location of the demonic fire was roughly revealed.
