Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

Before forcing a contract, Qinglin always tried to reason with the snake.

If the other party is willing to become your partner, that would be wonderful; if not, then I'm sorry.

"By the way, I need your help to mentor a talented young girl from the snake-people clan later."

Han Feng said.

“That snake-woman girl has a naturally strong soul, so you have to defeat her on the soul level.”

Qinglin was taken aback upon hearing this, then seemed to remember something and asked, "Uncle Han, is this the snake-woman girl we met when we went to the Tagor Desert last time?"

"Oh? You remember me?"

Han Feng thought he didn't recognize Qing Lin.

"Yes, when I saw that she was surrounded by spiritual energy, I knew that her soul power was beyond that of ordinary people."

"Uncle Han asked me to defeat her, was it to dampen her arrogance?"

"Qinglin asked."

Han Feng nodded.

"Just let her know that there are always people better than her, and there are always mountains beyond mountains. Don't make her too devastated, or I'm afraid she'll never recover."

Han Feng smiled.

Facing the Azure Serpent's Three-Flower Pupil, Qingluo, being a snake-person, possessed a natural disadvantage.

Han Feng was genuinely worried that Qing Lin might not hold back and crush that girl.

"Okay, just call me whenever you want."

Qinglin smiled and nodded.

The two women returned to the bamboo forest and began their respective secluded cultivation.

Han Feng then went to the City Lord's Mansion to learn about the recent events in the Black Corner Region.

Han Feng originally thought that the Black Corner Region would be much calmer under his major reforms, but to his surprise, instead of causing trouble, foreign countries began to provoke the Black Corner Region.

Moreover, it's not just the Black Corner Region; the Gama Empire is currently facing siege from three major empires, has already lost many cities, and even shows signs of national collapse.

On the table in the city lord's mansion was a letter of appeal for help sent by Jia Xingtian.

The letter was a plea for help from Han Feng, hoping he could help the Jia Ma Empire quell this disaster.

"Izumo Empire, Mulan Empire, Luoyan Empire."

Han Feng looked at the letter about the three empires besieging the Gama Empire and was puzzled as to why the mere Gama Empire would be subjected to such a terrifying siege.

Each of these three empires can field a Dou Zong-level combatant. However, in the current Jia Ma Empire, if Jia Xingtian has not yet broken through, there should only be Hai Bodong as a Dou Zong.

Two fists can't beat four hands; no matter how strong Hai Bodong is, it's all in vain.

Moreover, the Mittel Trading Company was never on the side of the Empire. If the Gama Royal Family were to lose, the Mittel Trading Company could simply withdraw from the Gama Empire.

They are doing very well in the Black Corner region now, so there's no need to worry about not having a base.

Besides the Mittel Trading Company, Han Feng also thought of the Yunlan Sect, the original strongest sect in the Jia Ma Empire.

If Yunshan hadn't come out to provoke me that day, he might still be a Dou Zong now.

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs". After Han Feng discovered that Yun Shan possessed the aura of the Soul Palace, he was already giving Yunlan Sect face by not killing him.

Now that Yunshan has been reduced to Douhuang, and Yunyun, the sect leader, is unlikely to break through to Douzong in a short time, the overall situation cannot be reversed.

Perhaps the three great empires are making such a big fuss because of the abolition of Yunshan of the Yunlan Sect.

Han Feng himself did not have any deep feelings for the Gama Empire.

The Mittel family and the Xiao family, who originally had some connection, have both moved to the Black Corner Region.

To be honest, he had absolutely no need to get involved in the struggle between the four empires.

However, we could ask the Xiao family about this and see if they have any attachment to their homeland.

If there were any, they could be used as combat training for Xiao Yan.

The disciples fighting on the martial arts stage are not in any danger to their lives, but the sword fights on the battlefield are the best place to hone a cultivator's combat skills.

Chapter 294 Saving the Day

When the intelligence was delivered to the Xiao family, it surprised both Xiao Zhan and Xiao Yan, who were having a reunion.

"The border of the Black Corner Region has indeed been quite turbulent recently. I had also heard about the fighting in the Gama Empire, but I didn't expect it to be this serious."

Xiao Zhan said in a solemn tone.

They were, after all, native citizens of the Gama Empire, and hearing that the empire was about to perish, their mood was naturally not very pleasant.

If Xiao Zhan hadn't made up his mind to move away from Wutan City back then, they would be in dire straits right now.

From this perspective, the decision to relocate was incredibly wise.

"The fact that my senior brother sent this intelligence suggests that he intends to help the Jia Ma Empire."

After reading the letter, Xiao Yan said this.

If Han Feng really didn't want to get involved, then there was no need for them to know.

The intelligence was sent to inquire about the Xiao family's opinion.

Or to be more precise, they came to ask for their own opinions.

Are you willing to step onto the battlefield and defend your former homeland?

Xiao Yan smiled slightly, his eyes filled with a hint of domineering confidence.

"Father, it seems we won't have time for afternoon tea."

"You, you're going to the Gama Empire?"

Xiao Zhan was taken aback.

"Yes, the Gama Empire still holds some fond memories for me. I won't stand for it to be bullied too badly by other countries."

Xiao Yan rubbed his fist and said calmly.

"Yan'er, although you are now a nine-star Dou Wang, the national war is not an ordinary sparring match. Your grandfather was seriously injured on the battlefield back then and eventually died!"

Xiao Zhan said with lingering fear.

Battlefield is always the most destructive word.

Even a powerful Dou Wang (Battle King) could perish there if he wasn't careful.

Xiao Yan patted his father on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Father, don't underestimate me."

Looking at the warm aura emanating from her son, and the smile on his face, she felt confident and radiant.

Xiao Zhan chuckled softly: "Yes, you've grown up. You're no longer the little kid your father used to worry about."

"Go! Show those invading enemies what's what!"

Xiao Yan chuckled, walked into the courtyard, spread his Dou Qi wings, and with a whoosh, flew into the sky.

Xiao Zhan stood in the courtyard, watching his son's figure soar higher and higher, feeling both gratified and proud.

"Father, do you see? Yan'er is already more capable than you."

Xiao Zhan murmured to himself.

If Xiao Lin were still alive, he certainly wouldn't have stood by and watched the Gama Empire be destroyed.

He was once a great general of the empire!

Not for the royal family, not for the noble clans, but only to protect the people living in the Gama Empire!

He would also stand tall and imposing, sword in hand, before millions of people.

This is a soldier's duty, and his eternal mission!

In the city lord's mansion, Han Feng looked up at the sky.

"Have you set off yet?"

She's so impatient.

However, with military matters urgent, being swift is always a good thing.

Han Feng waved his hand, and two Dou Zong puppets flew out from the shadows, quickly chasing after the direction Xiao Yan had left in.

----------

Jia Ma Empire.

At this time, all the major cities were in dire straits.

The combined offensive capabilities of the three great empires are overwhelming.

Moreover, without the Snake People tribe acting as a buffer in the Tagor Desert, the three great empires can attack the borders of the Gama Empire as if they were in an empty field. Border cities like Mo City and Shimo City have long since fallen.

Outside Karyong Castle.

Nalan Yanran, the young sect leader of the Yunlan Sect, led her disciples to guard the city walls.

Now that the empire is in danger of collapse, the Yunlan Sect no longer opposes the royal family, but instead works together to protect the country.

Nalan Yanran held a long sword, her azure battle aura wings flapping behind her, and slowly hovered above the city wall, gazing at the densely packed army in the distance.

Clearly, she is now a powerful expert at the Dou Wang level!

After being defeated by Xiao Yan, she entered the secret realm of the Yunlan Sect to undergo trials at the Gate of Life and Death.

After overcoming numerous hardships, she successfully survived the trials and tribulations, and her cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching the Dou Wang level.

Among the powerful figures in the Jia Ma Empire, a Dou Wang is already a name that can be counted, not to mention Nalan Yanran, who has received the true teachings of the Yunlan Sect.

"Young Sect Master, the Golden Goose Sect has appeared!"

One of the surveying disciples quickly reported this.

In the distance, several golden figures sped towards them from the sky. The wings that flapped behind them were solid, fundamentally different from wings formed from battle aura.

"Aerial combat skills!"

Nalan Yanran's gaze sharpened as she looked at the two Golden Goose Sect disciples who appeared above the army, and her heart sank.

As the eldest daughter of a general's family, she naturally knew the importance of intelligence in a war.

The Golden Goose Sect's signature fighting technique is a flight fighting technique called "Nine Wings of the Sky Goose"!

Flying combat skills are not only for those at the Dou Wang rank; even those at the Dou Shi rank can master them.

The flight speed of aerial combat techniques varies considerably depending on the quality of the technique.

Even if a Dou Shi (Battle Master) wears a Xuan-rank flying combat skill, their speed will not be much inferior to that of a Dou Wang (Battle King).

The flying combat skills of the Yellow Rank are much inferior. Not only do they consume a lot of energy, but their speed is also inferior to that of the Fighting King. They can only barely experience the feeling of flying. If they were to truly face a Fighting King, they would not be able to escape.

However, any kind of flying combat skill is extremely precious. It allows cultivators to have the right to fly before they become Battle Kings. This alone is enough to make it a highly sought-after skill among many cultivators.

In the Black Corner Region, a scroll of Yellow-rank flying combat technique was once sold at an auction for a price of up to a million gold coins! That's more expensive than a high-level Profound-rank technique.

The wonders of flight combat techniques are not limited to the early stages. Even after a cultivator breaks through to the Dou Wang rank and gains the ability to transform Dou Qi into wings, they can still use flight combat techniques to increase their flight speed through double enhancement.

Nalan Yanran was unsure of the grade of the Golden Goose Sect's flying combat technique, but since it was a closely guarded secret and a treasure of the sect, it must be at least a high-level Xuan rank.

If a Battle King were to use a flight combat technique of this caliber, the resulting speed boost would be terrifying.

Nalan Yanran thought to herself.

Two disciples of the Golden Goose Sect arrived from afar, one of whom exuded an aura of power at the Dou Wang level.

The teacher has more important things to guard, and I can't hold her back.

Nalan Yanran's longsword hummed softly, and wind-attribute combat techniques gathered around her.

As a wind-attribute cultivator, she excels in speed, and she might not necessarily lose to someone from the Golden Goose Sect.

The army of the Luoyan Empire slowly approached, its dark and imposing presence weighing heavily on the hearts of the soldiers of the Jiama Empire.

The main force of the Gama Empire is now tied up in another strategic location, where the garrison is very limited in strength.

On the other hand, the Luoyan Empire was clearly well-prepared and exuded a magnificent aura.
