Upon hearing this, the crowd was slightly taken aback. After exchanging glances for a moment, they nodded in agreement. As the second-best martial artist in Wudang, Master Mu was indeed capable of undertaking this important task, both in terms of martial arts skills and his seniority and reputation, and the crowd had no objections.
Seeing this, Zhang Sanfeng's face showed satisfaction. Just as he was about to make a decision, Mu Daoren suddenly stepped forward and said loudly, "It is still appropriate to hand over the position of sect leader to Yuanqiao. It is also time to let the younger generation gain experience."
Before joining the Azure Dragon Society, leading Wudang was indeed his long-cherished dream. However, after witnessing the Azure Dragon Society's profound strength, Wudang was no longer worthy of his attention. Moreover, taking over as sect leader would require a great deal of energy to handle sect affairs—why not take on missions and earn points within the Azure Dragon Society?
Especially now that Zhang Sanfeng has reached the Celestial Realm, the gap between them is becoming increasingly vast. Their natural talents are already inferior; if they don't diligently cultivate, they might not even be able to catch a glimpse of him in the future!
Zhang Sanfeng had always been his goal, and the current outcome was hard for him to accept!
Before he finished speaking, everyone's faces were filled with shock.
No one could understand why Mu Daoren would give up the position he had always dreamed of!
Only Zhang Sanfeng seemed to have thought of something.
He gave the wooden Taoist a deep look, and then suddenly realized—
It turns out that Master Mu had already entered the realm of terrestrial immortals!
The cultivation level he displayed earlier was merely a deliberate concealment!
After a brief moment of surprise, Zhang Sanfeng felt relieved.
He suddenly remembered something Li Bai had once said.
With the support of a behemoth like the Azure Dragon Society, coupled with Mu Daoren's exceptional talent, it's not surprising that he broke through to the level of a terrestrial immortal.
Thinking of this, Zhang Sanfeng calmly nodded in the face of everyone's gaze.
"Yuanqiao will succeed as the leader of Wudang Sect in the future!"
"Excellent!" the seven elders of Wudang echoed in unison.
Song Yuanqiao looked anxious and was about to decline, but when he met Zhang Sanfeng's unquestionable gaze, he could only remain silent.
With the position of sect leader already decided, Zhang Sanfeng said no more, offering a few words of encouragement to Song Yuanqiao before departing gracefully.
The Heavenly Dao Golden List hanging in the void trembled slightly, and then burst forth with dazzling golden light.
In the blink of an eye, the entire nation was focused on this.
After a few breaths, the golden light gradually dissipated, and lines of text slowly appeared.
[Rank 12 on the Nine Provinces Power Ceiling List: Si Hanfei, Cultivation Level: Mid-stage Celestial Being.]
[Identity: Member of the Yuan Dynasty Royal Family]
[Sihanfei, originally named Hulagu, changed his name to Sihanfei out of admiration for the culture of the Central Plains.]
As a member of the royal family of the Great Yuan Dynasty, he was born noble, possessed unparalleled talent, and had unfathomable martial arts skills. He also had countless extraordinary individuals serving under his command.
Although he is not well-known in the Central Plains, in terms of combat prowess, he is virtually unmatched in the martial arts world of the Nine Provinces!
[Besides martial arts, he is also a peerless genius in military affairs!]
[Heavenly Dao's assessment: An extraordinary genius, a prodigy, a legend in the making!]
[Heavenly Reward: Enlightenment Pill (This pill aids in enlightenment; the higher the user's innate comprehension, the stronger the effect)]
The final word appeared, and the entire land trembled!
Throughout the Nine Provinces, countless martial artists held their breath in unison.
Even martial artists with little experience had long heard of the Enlightenment Pill's fame—this divine object, which only existed in ancient books and legends, had now become a reward bestowed by the Heavenly Dao! The sudden and shocking news made everyone's hearts tremble.
Many reclusive powerhouses gazed at the Heavenly Ranking with greed in their eyes. The higher their cultivation, the more they understood the importance of talent and comprehension. Especially those old monsters whose lifespans were nearing their end but who had been unable to break through—their eyes gleamed, their minds racing.
The Great Qin Dynasty, Xianyang City.
“Si Hanfei? The Great Yuan Dynasty actually hides such a powerful figure…” Ying Zheng withdrew his gaze and said in a calm tone, “If it weren’t for the Heavenly Dao Golden List revealing this, I would have been completely unaware of his existence. It seems that the Yuan Emperor has quite a grand scheme.”
He shifted his gaze slightly, glancing indifferently at his side. Zhao Gao's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately bowed his head and knelt down, not daring to argue. Ying Zheng ignored him, his gaze fixed on the distance.
Zhang Han strode over, his expression grave, and bowed to report: "Your Majesty, an urgent report from the Black Ice Guard!"
"Read it." Ying Zheng's expression remained unchanged.
Three days ago, Shaolin, along with other sects, besieged Wudang, with four terrestrial immortals joining forces to suppress them. Kunlun's He Zudao broke through during the battle, entering the realm of a terrestrial immortal.
In this critical moment, Li Taibai, one of the five leaders of the Azure Dragon Society, appeared and invited Zhang Sanfeng to join the society.
After Zhang Sanfeng agreed, Li Taibai swept his sword across the sky, slaying four Shaolin immortals, and used his sword intent to help Zhang Sanfeng achieve enlightenment, enabling him to ascend to the realm of celestial beings!
All the sects that participated in the siege were slaughtered by the Azure Dragon Society!
Even after Zhang Han finished reading, shock lingered in his eyes. Clearly, the terrifying strength displayed by the Azure Dragon Society had even instilled fear in him.
This is merely a fleeting glimpse into the immense power of the Azure Dragon Society!
Deathly silence.
Even though the strength of the Azure Dragon Society had been anticipated.
But when Ying Zheng heard this news...
They remained silent for a long time.
He hadn't expected it.
The Azure Dragon Society's foundation is so unfathomable!
Chapter 21 Turnaround
Everything has two sides.
While it was shocking, it also unveiled a corner of the mysterious veil of the Azure Dragon Society.
For Ying Zheng.
This might be a turning point.
The unknown is what is most frightening.
As the fog gradually dissipates.
Whether it's cooperation or confrontation, it will be easier to plan.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng said in a deep voice:
"Continue reporting."
When Zhang Sanfeng broke through to the Celestial Realm, he sensed several lurking experts from the Great Yuan Dynasty.
[The Hundred-Loss Taoist, the Fire-Worker Monk, the Demon Master Pangban, and Princess Minmin Temur all made their appearance.]
[Due to a long-standing grudge, Zhang Sanfeng killed Bai Sun Daoren, Huo Gong Toutuo, and Pang Ban on the spot.]
Minmin Temur was captured by Li Taibai, one of the five leaders of the Azure Dragon Society, who intended to offer her to Ximen Yu, the leader of the Great Dragon Society, as a maid.
[All martial arts sects that invaded Wudang during the Ming Dynasty were annihilated within three hours!]
Zhang Han's Adam's apple bobbed, and his voice sounded slightly dry.
Ying Zheng was slightly taken aback at first, then revealed a playful expression.
In just a few words.
The Azure Dragon Society's domineering and ruthless style, and its decisive and ruthless approach to killing, are on full display.
While secretly admiring it.
He was more eager to see how the Yuan Dynasty royal family would react.
I do not know Emperor Temujin.
Faced with such blatant provocation.
How would you respond?
.........
When Ying Zheng whispered "Interesting".
Genghis Khan's face was as dark as ink.
The cold glint in his eyes caused the indoor temperature to plummet.
He had already heard about the deeds of Zhang Sanfeng and Li Bai.
This is an act that slaps the faces of all living beings in the land.
This infuriated him!
If the two of them were here.
He would not hesitate to order them to be torn to pieces and their bones crushed to ashes!
The Hundred-Loss Taoist and the Fire-Worker Monk are one thing, but that's another.
Even if he were to die, it would be of no consequence to him.
What truly pained him was the demon master Pang Ban.
This peerless genius is very likely to reach the Celestial Realm!
I knew he would perish here.
Even if Minmintemur begged him repeatedly, he would never allow him to accompany him!
What enraged him even more was Li Bai's arrogant statement that he should send Minmin Temur to serve Ximen Yu!
You should consider the owner before beating a dog!
She was, after all, a princess personally appointed by herself.
How dare they make her do that lowly servant job!
This is no longer a simple humiliation.
It's like they've utterly trampled on his dignity!
Not only him, but the entire Great Yuan Dynasty will become a laughing stock across the land!
Thinking of this, Temujin could no longer restrain himself.
In a fit of rage, he kicked over the desk in front of him.
His eyes were filled with murderous intent.
He was about to order the annihilation of the Azure Dragon Society.
At this moment, the Eighth Master of the Imperial Preceptor walked in.
"Is the Khan going to make a move against the Azure Dragon Society?"
"Does the Grand Preceptor intend to stop me, the Khan?" Temujin asked coldly.
"it's not true."
Ba Shiba shook his head slightly.
His expression immediately turned solemn, and he said in a serious tone:
"I have come here only to remind the Khan."
"The Azure Dragon Society's strength is unfathomable. Making a rash move will only allow other dynasties to reap the benefits."
"Moreover, the exact number of people under the command of the Azure Dragon Society is still unknown."
"If we cannot wipe them out in one fell swoop, the consequences for the Yuan Dynasty will be endless!"
"Furthermore, Khan, do not forget that the eleven halls of the Azure Dragon Society and its seven dragon leaders alone constitute a terrifying force!"
"To completely eradicate them, we would have to enlist the help of those beings within the imperial tombs."
"The Khan should know the consequences of this action better than I do!"
Temujin was speechless for a moment.
To be able to establish oneself and become a dominant force in the martial arts world of Kyushu.
Every dynasty has its own formidable trump cards.
Unless facing annihilation.
Otherwise, these trump cards should never be used lightly!
