Chapter 1213: Chapter 287: Chen Jie: Is Zhang Sanfeng Coming Too?

Ruyang King said: ”Good, since that’s the case, let’s proceed according to plan.”

Lord Wuxiang looked at Ruyang King and said: ”Your Highness, for our plan to succeed, the prerequisite is that we must hold the arena. If we can’t hold the arena, everything will be lost.”

Ruyang King said: ”Isn’t the arena restricted this time, prohibiting anyone above the Molten Furnace Realm from participating?”

Lord Wuxiang said: ”Yes.”

Ruyang King said: ”Then no problem, we have plenty of experts in the Dragon Realm.”

Lord Wuxiang said: ”Xiao He is injured, afraid he can’t hold the arena.”

Upon hearing this, Ruyang King said: ”Indeed, He Yishou can’t hold it, but don’t forget we still have that White-clothed Sword God.”

Lord Wuxiang said: ”Han Baiyi?”

Ruyang King said: ”He has surely been a disciple of Wudang, and also followed Old Zhang, his strength can’t be weak. This time, Song Yuanqiao can’t make a move, and Old Zhang’s few young disciples’ strength surely won’t be as good as his. As long as he can hold the arena, we can proceed with our plan.”

Lord Wuxiang said: ”Yes, Song Yuanqiao coming is an unexpected twist. We originally planned to just seek martial artists from Jiangnan, but we underestimated the allure of Wu Mu’s Legacy; even Old Zhang is tempted?”

Ruyang King said: ”It’s a fake book affecting the world events, hehe. I wonder what mood the person who gets this book will have, once they realize it’s fake.”

Lord Wuxiang said: ”Everyone wants fame, but little do they know that fame comes at a price.”

Upon hearing this, Ruyang King said: ”Yes, to be famous, hehe, it’s not that easy.”

At this point, Lord Wuxiang said: ”Your Highness, what if Han Baiyi fails?”

Ruyang King paused and looked at Lord Wuxiang, saying: ”Han Baiyi can’t fail, right? When I became famous, he was already in the Dragon Realm; it’s been over twenty years, he’s been seeking the most perfect Dragon Realm. He’s perhaps the strongest of the Dragon Realm, can he fail?”

Lord Wuxiang said: ”I know he has been wanting to find the perfect Dragon Realm and then leap through the dragon gate, and ascend to the Heaven and Earth Furnace to prove that Zhang Sanfeng was wrong in not choosing him as Senior Brother back then. But everything has exceptions; if he fails, what should we do?”

”We must plan for contingencies.”

Lord Wuxiang looked at Ruyang King, Ruyang King said: ”In that case, we may have to sacrifice Mr. He.”

”Mr. He is loyal, and Mr. Gui is gravely injured. If we lose Mr. He too, the loss would be too great!”

Ruyang King said: ”What else can we do? If Han Baiyi fails, can we expect Shen Tu? Zhang Shicheng, or that Chen Jius from Jiangnan brought back by Yaya!”

”Can those few outperform Han Baiyi?”

Ruyang King showed contempt for Chen Jius and the others, believing they were just making up the numbers, and when it came to the Treasure Book Glory Conference, the only one he could rely on was Han Baiyi.

Lord Wuxiang thought and said: ”That Chen Jius, moves like a dragon and tiger, has the demeanor of a great general, perhaps he could be of some use.”

Ruyang King waved his hand and said: ”A sweet-talking fool who can only deceive Yaya, what real skills does he have. To be honest, I’ve already investigated his background; he was originally a fisherman from Mianshui in Huangzhou, Hubei. Later, by chance, he was valued by the hall master of a small local sect and only then reached this day’s achievements. The only lucky break he had was learning the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms, and he has used this technique to forge his way here. He’s nothing much.”

”I just don’t understand why Yaya likes him so much.”

Ruyang King shook his head, not having high hopes for Chen Jius’s abilities.

Lord Wuxiang did not try to persuade further.

Thus, the first day passed, followed closely by the second day, which saw Longxing Prefecture becoming bustling again, as another heavyweight figure arrived.

From the overseas Divine Dragon Island, the Divine Dragon Sect sent their Deputy Island Master, Seated Seal Qiu Nan, along with one son and daughter of Sect Hierarch Fang Guozhen to participate in this Treasure Book Glory Conference at Longxing Prefecture.

This Qiu Nan is also a notable figure, his strength has reached the Molten Furnace Realm.

With Qiu Nan’s arrival, Longxing Prefecture immediately became lively again, with countless people speculating if anyone else would come to Longxing Prefecture to participate in this conference.

Ruyang King also learned about this news, but he didn’t pay much heed. Though Qiu Nan is in the Molten Furnace Realm, his strength is at the bottom of the Earth List, and he isn’t even on the list.

So, such a Molten Furnace Realm isn’t to be feared.

Not in Ruyang King’s view, especially since it isn’t the East Sea Divine Dragon Sect’s ninth on the Heavenly List, Fang Guozhen, who came to Longxing Prefecture. With this, Ruyang King can still maintain his composure.

Everything was still within his grasp.

What he didn’t know was, that night, another group secretly entered the city, led by a woman, none other than one of the Four Great Dharma Kings of the Zoroastrian Sect, Undying Bird Han Miaozhen.

Last time, Han Miaozhen fought with the Gu God at the Five Poison Sect, and then the Ruyang King sealed the mountain. But a Molten Furnace Realm like Han Miaozhen wouldn’t be caught by the people of Ruyang Royal Mansion; she successfully escaped, and shortly after coming out, she heard that the Holy Sect’s Wu Mu’s Legacy had been taken away by Ruyang King.

So she sent orders along the route to major branches in Jiangnan, instructing them to come to Longxing Prefecture immediately to meet her.

And she traveled slowly along the way, arriving in Longxing Prefecture today.

After entering the city, she went directly to the agreed-upon location, the Wang Family’s Old Store.

Upon entering, the scouts in the store immediately recognized her identity and led her to the backyard, and soon people from various Jiangnan branches of the Zoroastrian Sect all came.

”From Suzhou Branch, Zhang Ziming.”

”From Yangzhou Branch, Peng Shan.”

...

”From Haozhou Branch, Zhu Chongba”
