Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 1533: Chapter 1534: Fire Refining Prison!

”Hmm?”

Fung Wuheng, upon hearing someone introduce themselves as Ling Feng, stepped out only to see a large, obese man, and immediately furrowed his brows.

”Who are you, daring to fool me!”

There was a flash of anger in Fung Wuheng’s eyes, but He Yuanzhi, standing beside him, carefully examined Ling Feng. Despite the complete change in physique, she could vaguely see some resemblance to Ling Feng in his features.

”Wait a moment, Wu Hen, he might really be Ling Feng.”

He Yuanzhi smiled faintly, lifted her eyes to gaze at Ling Feng, and said slowly, ”Ling Feng, you’re disguised like this to avoid those soldiers in the city, aren’t you?”

”Haha, Yuuanzhi Supreme, you are indeed astute.”

Ling Feng nodded with a smile, showing his original physique by using the Eight Desolate Body Forging Technique and the Muscle Shifting Technique, and laughed loudly, ”How about it, Fung Taishang, do you believe me now?”

”Ling Feng, my brother, it’s really you!”

Seeing Ling Feng revert to his original appearance, Fung Wuheng couldn’t help but burst into laughter, then furrowed his brows again, looking speechless, ”Kid, do you know the current situation in the city, and yet you still dared to come back?”

”I, Ling Feng, don’t have many virtues, but courage is certainly one of them.”

Ling Feng responded with a carefree smile, ”You should know that about me, right, Fung Taishang?”

”You little rascal!” Fung Wuheng shook his head with a smile, ”You wouldn’t come to the Three Treasures Hall without a reason. Just tell me what you need. Although our Sky Alliance Commerce never gets involved in power struggles, we do have some friendship between us, so I’ll do my best to assist you.”

”Thank you, senior!”

Ling Feng saluted Fung Wuheng with cupped hands. Previously, this old man had a considerable grudge with Despicable Donkey, and if it weren’t for Ling Feng helping him advance to the Human Emperor Realm, he might still be shouting to kill him now, let alone calling him brother so affectionately.

”Wait a second...”

Fung Wuheng closely scrutinized Ling Feng again, surprised, ”Your aura feels a bit murky to me.”

”I was quite fortunate over the past half year, with quite a few lucky encounters. I’m now in the Creation Realm Third Layer Heaven.”

Ling Feng touched his nose, speaking with a nonchalant air.

”Sss...”

Upon hearing these words, both Fung Wuheng and He Yuanzhi’s eyelids twitched vigorously.

This kid, at such a young age, is already a Human Emperor-level master, and he has even surpassed Fung Wuheng in realm!

”You really are a little monster!”

Fung Wuheng shook his head with a wry smile, ”In Martial Arts, those who reach the destination first are the masters. Don’t call me senior anymore; I can’t accept it!”

”Uh...”

Ling Feng puckered his lips, ”Then I’ll boldly call you Brother Fung.”

”Now that you are highly cultivated, naturally, it’s as you say.”

Fung Wuheng circled around Ling Feng, nodding repeatedly, ”You, indeed, would be considered a top-notch talent in the Holy Land.”

Ling Feng pursed his lips, realizing that Sky Alliance Commerce is indeed intricately connected with the Holy Land, which explains their transcendent status in the Sky White Empire.

”Pretty average, I suppose.”

Ling Feng gave a modest smile, then returned to the main topic, saying slowly, ”Actually, I came here mainly to ask Brother Fung to help me investigate where Yaan Jinghong detained the prisoners. With the vastness of the Imperial City, I’m at a loss, so I had no choice but to come to Sky Alliance Commerce to gather information.”

”Haha, that’s easy!”

Fung Wuheng nodded, ”Though I represent Sky Alliance Commerce and can’t help you personally, finding out some information is no problem.”

”Thank you, Brother Fung.”

Old man knelt before Fung Wuheng with cupped hands to express his gratitude.

”No need for thanks. Since Yaan Jinghong has thrown the Sky White Empire into such chaos, our Imperial City Branch’s business has been affected, too. I hope you can eliminate that little demon soon and restore the Sky White Empire to its former prosperity. With your skills now, you should be able to directly confront that little demon.”

”Haha...”

Ling Feng just gave a sheepish smile, saying no more.

Soon, led by Fung Wuheng, the two arrived at the Sky Alliance Commerce’s intelligence gathering location.

The major events that have occurred within the country over the past month are detailed and listed within.

”Sky White Calendar Year 317, August 3rd, the Sky White Monarch suddenly dies. Suspected to have been harmed by Yaan Jinghong. That night, the Fourth Prince was summoned by the Empress Dowager and crowned as Emperor.”

”August 9th, the National Guardian Divine Sect’s Sect Master Yue Zhonglian questioned the late emperor’s cause of death. Leading the eight Supreme Elders of the Divine Sect and the court’s six ancient ancestors, they jointly executed the new emperor, but were suppressed by Yaan Jinghong. Over half of the eight Supremes and six ancestors were killed or injured. That night, the Cangqiong Sect Master was accused of treason, held outside Taiching Palace for public whipping to intimidate the courtiers.”

”August 10th, the Heavenly Position Academy was delisted.”

”August 11th, General Wei Yuan was delisted, and a nationwide search was issued for the traitor Ling Feng.”

”August 12th, General YingYang’s Mansion was delisted, and Grand Commandant dismissed and investigated.”

”August 13th, the Alchemy Master Guild was disbanded, and all high-level elders were imprisoned.”

”August 15th, the Southeast Three Counties pledged allegiance...”

”August...”

”...”

”August 18th, Yaan Jinghong was appointed as the Regent King.”

After reading these records, Ling Feng furrowed his brow deeply. In less than a month, Yaan Jinghong had almost overturned the entire Sky White Empire! This person, not only possessed extraordinary strength but also wielded strong-arm methods like none other, making it nearly unbelievable that he was once the young and impetuous Yaan Jinghong.

After all, though he previously harbored no particular liking for Yaan Jinghong, Yaan’s actions could still be considered fair and upright. With his pride, he wouldn’t stoop to tricks and schemes. Yet now, he resembles Lin Canglang’s style remarkably.

Based on previous speculations, Ling Feng had reason to believe that behind all this, there might also be Lin Canglang’s shadow.

Taking a deep breath, Ling Feng continued leafing through these files and soon found some records on where the prisoners were kept.

A portion was held at General Wei Yuan’s mansion, which Ling Feng had already rescued, so could temporarily disregard it.

Cangqiong disciples and elders were mostly imprisoned within the Cangqiong Sect’s mountain gates, guarded by a team of Black Armored Cavalry Army.

Court officials who resisted were held in the ”Fire Refining Prison,” guarded by the Divine Guard Camp and Imperial Court Guards.

”Cangqiong Sect and Fire Refining Prison?”

Ling Feng memorized these two locations and then bowed to Fung Wuheng, saying, ”Brother Fung, thank you so much this time!”

”It’s nothing,”

Fung Wuheng pondered and said, ”But Ling Feng, my brother, I’ve heard that those imprisoned by Yaan Jinghong all took poison elixirs containing demon miasma, which devour and suppress the elemental power of the ingesters. Even if you could break in, it’s hard to ensure everyone’s safety. After all, they’ve become quite burdensome.”

”I have my own plans for this, Brother Fung. I’ll be on my way now!”

Ling Feng expressed his gratitude to Fung Wuheng once more before swiftly leaving the Sky Alliance Commerce. Nearing the outside, he transformed again into a burly and large man.
