Fighting: I am Han Feng, I respect my teacher

However, he cannot let this matter stop him from moving forward.

"grown ups."

When Fenglinwei saw Han Feng return, they were also very excited.

For them, Han Feng was the backbone. Without him, the entire Black Corner Region would not have enjoyed such lasting peace.

Now Maple City has become so prosperous, the people in the city live a peaceful and happy life, and the cultivators in the city are also rising step by step, enjoying several times more resources than before.

Under these circumstances, which old Fengcheng resident wouldn't feel immense respect for Han Feng?

It can be said that Han Feng has become the faith of the entire Fenglin Guard. No matter when or where, as long as Han Feng gives an order, they are willing to obey.

Han Feng looked at the veteran who had followed him from the beginning and nodded secretly.

"Have you heard about the Soul Palace's recent rampant plundering in the Northwest Continent?"

"I am aware of this matter, but the cities in the Black Corner Region are heavily guarded, and the puppet army is unparalleled in combat power. Therefore, the Soul Palace has not invaded this place."

Han Lie reported.

The Soul Palace also likes to pick on the weak. The Black Corner Region is now one of the top powers in the Northwest Continent. Even long-established forces like the Lion Nether Sect and the Heavenly Serpent Mansion cannot compare to it.

"Are you aware of the fighting in other places?"

"This is just a general understanding; we haven't gathered any specific details or intelligence yet."

Han Feng nodded.

"From now on, all information related to the Soul Palace must be collected immediately."

"The geographical location of the Black Corner is very special. It is located in the center and surrounded by various barriers, but this also means that it cannot remain unaffected."

Han Feng said, "As the best of the best in the Northwest Continent, we have to take the lead."

Chapter 433 Canaan

Canaan College.

Han Feng arrived alone. He didn't see anyone else. He went to the outer courtyard library and chatted with the two old men who guarded the place.

The two elders brought out their treasured wines and invited Han Feng to drink with them.

"Come, come, Elder Han hasn't been back for a long time, this is a rare occasion!"

The three of them clinked glasses.

"It's been a few years since we last met, and you two seniors have become even more courageous and skilled."

Han Feng said.

"It's alright, it's alright. Compared to a genius like you, our progress is nothing."

At this point, the two elders could no longer discern Han Feng's strength. If they hadn't known him, they would have mistaken him for an ordinary person on the road.

"The dean came back a while ago, and we said it was a pity that the college had produced such a prominent figure, but it was a shame that you, dean, were unable to meet him."

"Who would have thought that he would guess it so quickly, and even said that he had already met you in the ancient clan."

The two elders smiled and said, "It's truly fate."

Han Feng nodded.

"The Dean has always kept Canaan Academy in mind, but he does indeed enjoy traveling around..."

With Soul Temples springing up all over the mainland, it's uncertain whether Mang Tianchi will be able to enjoy this entire journey.

"Guess what? The dean finally came back, but he only stayed at the academy for less than a day before leaving, which made Su Qian so angry..."

Su Qian finally met the backbone of the academy, but she didn't expect that this backbone would move around randomly and disappear without her noticing.

Han Feng chuckled awkwardly. If it weren't for the Fenglin Guards' high regard for him, Han Feng would have thought that the two elders were subtly criticizing him.

After all, he's often away from Maple City, and even when he does come back, he leaves very quickly.

From this perspective, I seem to be just like Mang Tianchi, somewhat irresponsible.

Han Feng thought to himself.

There are still some differences between myself and Dean Mang Tianchi.

After all, I'm here for serious business, not to travel around and kill time.

"The academy has produced many talented individuals these days."

The two elders took a sip of wine and continued speaking.

"In recent years, Fengcheng has been allocating more and more funds to the academy. It feels like the academy will reach a new level in a few years."

The two elders expressed their gratitude to Han Feng for the funding they had provided to Fengcheng over the years.

Although Canaan Academy is capable of being self-sufficient, with the educational funds allocated by Maple City, which governs the entire Black Corner Region, the overall resources available to the students are much more abundant.

"The academy has also provided Fengcheng with many outstanding talents; it's a mutually beneficial arrangement."

Han Feng said with a smile.

The three chatted for a while longer before getting down to business.

"Elder Han, is there anything important you need to do upon your return this time?"

The two elders asked.

"The important thing... is to deal with the Soul Palace."

Actually, this wasn't a big deal for Han Feng. After all, with his current strength, clearing out the Soul Palace was too easy, unlike when he was still a Dou Zun, when he had to personally lead a team to their door, taking advantage of the dark night to set up barriers and manipulate puppets to kill them one by one.

"The Soul Hall? The overall power level of the Northwest Continent is relatively weak, so the Soul Hall doesn't have many branch halls here."

In countries like the Gama Empire, which lack a Venerable One, a single Protector is often sufficient to lead the effort, along with other Soul Palace envoys.

Only those forces possessing the power of a Dou Zun would send the elders of the Soul Palace to intervene.

"It seems the two elders aren't well-informed enough."

Han Feng said.

"The Soul Hall's influence in the Northwest Continent is quite considerable these days. On my way back, I saw at least five branch halls."

Upon hearing this, the two elders paused in surprise.

"Moreover, as far as I know, the Lion Nether Sect, which is currently expanding its military and territory in the Northwest Continent, has close ties with the Soul Palace."

The two elders shook their heads helplessly.

"Alas, we've been staying in the library the whole time, so we haven't been as well-informed. But Elder Su Qian should know about this matter."

As the current head of the academy, Su Qian has the authority to gather intelligence from various departments, so her information network is naturally more efficient.

Han Feng nodded.

"I will go see him later, but the two elders should also pay more attention. In the next few years, the world will change drastically, and Canaan Academy must also be prepared to deal with the risks."

The two elders solemnly said, "We will remember Elder Han's words today!"

In the current world situation, Han Feng, with his Dou Sheng cultivation, undoubtedly possesses a greater degree of foresight and accuracy than them.

After the party ended, Han Feng got up to say goodbye.

The two elders escorted Han Feng to the outside of the library space and watched him fly towards the inner courtyard.

Today we part ways, and who knows when we'll be able to share a drink and have fun together again.

The inner court.

Su Qian, who was reviewing official documents, paused slightly, a smile appearing on her lips.

"you are back?"

He looked up at Han Feng, who had appeared beside him.

"I'm back, but I'm busy."

"It's just some everyday chores, it'll be fine to deal with it later."

Su Qian put down her pen.

"You still look stronger than before."

"how do you know?"

"Hehe, a genius like you wouldn't let yourself stand still."

Su Qian said with a smile.

Although he couldn't see through Han Feng's true intentions either, it didn't stop him from saying these things.

"I'm not some kind of genius. You haven't seen those prodigies in Zhongzhou who break through to the Dou Sheng realm in their early twenties."

"They have the bloodline of a Dou Di, they can't compare!"

Su Qian shook her head.

For an ordinary cultivator to reach Han Feng's level is already the limit of their limits.

"How many days will you stay this time?"

"Three days, I have other things to do, so I can't delay."

"Three days, that's alright, at least it's better than the old dean being reliable!"

Su Qian complained.

Han Feng smiled gently.

It seems Elder Su harbors a lot of resentment towards Mang Tianchi's abdication of responsibility.

"I wonder if Elder Han has taken note of the Soul Hall's affairs since he returned?"

Su Qian asked.

Han Feng looked at the other person with some surprise.

Unexpectedly, Su Qian brought it up herself.

"What are you looking at me for?"

Su Qian asked in confusion.

"It's nothing, just a bit of an accident. What you told me happens to match what I was going to tell you."

Su Qian was also taken aback when she heard this.

"That's quite a coincidence."

"The reason I asked you about this is because I feel that something is wrong with the Soul Palace in the Northwest Continent. If you came from the Central Continent, you should know some more accurate information."

Su Qian said.

Han Feng nodded approvingly: "Your vigilance is commendable. No wonder Elder Qianbai and Elder Qianbai praised you so highly, and the dean felt at ease entrusting the academy to your management."

Being able to detect the hidden dangers of the Soul Palace in advance, Su Qian is probably the first person in the entire Black Corner Region, including Maple City, to do so.

"It's just that I've learned more about the tragic situations in neighboring countries."

Su Qian said.

The horrific scenes that unfolded in the countries invaded by the Soul Temple serve as a stark warning to those around them.

What is the specific situation now?

Han Feng asked.

"Wait a moment, let me find that intelligence report."

Su Qian went to the room where the archives were kept and began to search for the scroll.

"Found it, take a look."

Su Qian handed the scroll to Han Feng.

"This happened half a month ago. Wars broke out in many countries, and in many cities, people's souls were drained."

The only entity capable of undertaking such a large-scale operation is the Soul Palace.

Han Feng opened the scroll and quickly flipped through it once.
