Chapter 1166: Chapter 1163: When Strength Falls Short, Cunning Prevails

The beheading blade shone with a cold and dazzling light under the sunlight.

Even though it was just an instant.

In people’s hearts, it seemed eternal.

It was like the dawn breaking the darkness, giving people hope.

Thunk!

Accompanied by a dull sound, Qi Pengfei’s head separated from his body, rolling onto the ground.

Blood spurted out from his neck, creating a shocking scene that triggered many screams.

However.

More was due to shouts of excitement.

Because Qi Pengfei was truly beheaded!

Even if he was a powerful figure in Carefree City’s elite society, having broken the law, he still had to be executed as an example.

Seeing the people’s excited expressions, Xu Wendong’s voice rang out: ”A country without laws will fall into chaos. Without laws, the people cannot stand. From now on, anyone who violates the law, no matter who, will face the judgment of the law!”

”From the royal nobility to the common people.”

”Without exception!”

He then soared into the air, flying into the government office under the reverent and fervent gazes of the crowd.

”Lord Long, I feel so good right now!”

After returning to the government office, Xu Wendong slumped on a stone bench, his face flushed and his eyes shining with an irresistible light.

Just a moment ago.

He clearly felt.

A strong surge of Virtue Power pouring into his body.

The amount was so much it felt unbelievable to him.

In fact, over the past few days, he felt the changes in his body at every moment, as streams of Virtue Power entered his body.

However.

The combined Virtue Power of the past few days couldn’t compare with the amount he just gained.

He realized.

When the people of Carefree City saw Qi Pengfei being beheaded, they truly recognized him.

Dragon Soul admired: ”Your fortune truly isn’t ordinary. Perhaps, Blackwater Kingdom can become a first-level cultivation country because of you.”

He knew what Xu Wendong’s proposals meant to the people, but he hadn’t expected that this young man would gain so much Virtue Power in such a short time.

”Although your Virtue Power is not much now, you can already condense it into a weapon.” Dragon Soul, residing within Xu Wendong, could feel the chaotic Virtue Power within his sea of consciousness.

Xu Wendong couldn’t help but ask: ”Surely, this Virtue Power can’t form a very strong weapon?”

Dragon Soul dismissively said: ”You can try to condense a soul sword. Even if you can’t form a physical object, its power is still terrifying!”

Xu Wendong: ”Didn’t you previously suggest I condense the Ten Thousand Citizens Seal?”

Dragon Soul retorted: ”Do you feel there’s a difference between the Ten Thousand Citizens Seal and the Sword of Ten Thousand Citizens?”

Xu Wendong was speechless.

The seal was a contest of authority.

But to be frank.

The attack of a seal is far inferior to a sword.

”I’ll give it a try!” Xu Wendong naturally wouldn’t doubt Dragon Soul’s words, after all, it was a Divine Dragon.

Without much thought.

He raised his hand to create a small barrier, preventing any disturbance by others.

Then he sat cross-legged, his expression becoming grave.

At the same time.

His consciousness entered the sea of consciousness.

He saw a layer of earthy-yellow mist floating above the sea of consciousness, which was the Virtue Power — a mighty, mysterious, and terrifying existence.

The presence of Virtue Power made the Taoist Scripture Fragment appear much dimmer.

”The strongest thing in the world is the Chaos Energy, also known as Primal Energy; Virtue Power is the existence second only to Chaos Energy.” Dragon Soul explained.

Xu Wendong acknowledged with a sound, then his consciousness enveloped the Virtue Power.

He thought.

The Virtue Power would be very resistant to him, and condensing it into a soul sword would be quite difficult.

However, unexpectedly.

The Virtue Power transformed according to his will.

In just under ten minutes.

The Virtue Power within Xu Wendong’s sea of consciousness disappeared, morphing into a misty, earthy-yellow, transparent longsword.

It looked quite unreal.

Giving a dreamlike feeling.

”It’s time to test the power of the Sword of Ten Thousand Citizens!” Xu Wendong thought, and the Golden Crow Furnace suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness, striking towards the Sword of Ten Thousand Citizens.

The Sword of Ten Thousand Citizens seemed very small in front of the Golden Crow Furnace, but when they collided, it blocked the Golden Crow Furnace’s attack.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly.

Otherwise, even the Golden Crow Furnace would have risked shattering.

Dragon Soul assessed Xu Wendong’s strength: ”Although you only have Nascent Soul Cultivation, with your current strength, if you encounter a Great Ascension Period Powerhouse while they are unprepared, you can also kill them.”

Xu Wendong smacked his lips, couldn’t help but sigh: ”If facing three Great Vehicle Stage Realm powerhouses at once, it would still be quite challenging!”

Dragon Soul said: ”When lacking strength, resort to cunning. I imagine a clever guy like you already has a foolproof plan.”

Xu Wendong cracked a smile with meaning: ”Lord Long, you’re indeed like a worm in my stomach!”

Dragon Soul scolded furiously: ”I am a dragon, a Divine Dragon, not a worm!”

Just as Xu Wendong was about to speak, he sensed a familiar aura approaching, immediately disabled the barrier, and Chu Ye soon entered his backyard.

Chu Ye politely said: ”Lord Xu, the Clan Leaders of the Shen Family, Du Family, and Pei Family request an audience.”

Xu Wendong nodded slightly: ”Bring them in!”

A moment later.

Chu Ye led Shen Congwen, Du Nanqiu, and Pei Yuanlang, three Mahayana Realm powerhouses, into Xu Wendong’s backyard.

”Greetings, Lord Xu!”

The three bowed respectfully.

Xu Wendong chuckled: ”It seems you have made your decision.”

Shen Congwen smiled: ”The three of us have privately discussed the terms set by Lord Xu. Although the fees are not cheap, we also want to contribute to the people of Carefree City with our capabilities.”

Du Nanqiu added: ”Yes, now Carefree City is thriving, and naturally, our three forces want to help in its development!”

Pei Yuanlang smiled: ”Mainly because we feel assured following Lord Xu.”

”And we believe in your wise decisions, we won’t suffer losses!”

Xu Wendong laughed heartily: ”Thank you for your trust, I guarantee you won’t lose money. Once you become wealthy, the people will have faith in my decisions!”

The three had flattering smiles, although in their hearts they were dismissive.

The surname Xu, do you really believe all we want is money?

No!

What we truly desire is your life!

Xu Wendong looked at Chu Ye, calmly asking: ”How’s the preparation of the leasing agreement I asked you to prepare?”

”Oh, it’s ready.” Chu Ye seemed a bit absent-minded, yet she still took out the prepared leasing agreement from her storage treasure.

”Please have a look, all three of you. If there are no issues, we can sign the leasing agreement now.” Xu Wendong handed the leasing agreement to the three.

Then, smiling, he looked at Chu Ye, giving her a meaningful smile.

Chu Ye’s heart was in turmoil, recalling the bet she made with Xu Wendong before.

She confidently proclaimed.

If she lost, she would have to ride on him until he was exhausted...
