1018 Back to Bei Xuan Faction
The next morning, Chen Xiaobei hopped on his Somersault Cloud and traveled back to Dragon City. After the last big war, the Zhuangs and Yaps had completely fallen from grace. These two families had ceased to exist in Dragon City. As for the Liu Family, they would never dare to disobey Chen Xiaobei. Lastly, the Cao Family was on good terms with Chen Xiaobei. In other words, Dragon City had turned into Chen Xiaobei's territory. No one would dare to go against him anymore.
At Bei Xuan Faction.
Everything had returned to how it was before. All the disciples in the faction were having a good time. As the grand leader of Blood Descendants Gordon and the grand elder of Mount Hua Faction Zhuang Bihuang were guarding the faction together, no Jianghu elites would dare to infiltrate or cause harm to Bei Xuan Faction if they were in their right minds.
Besides, the Jianghu in Dragon City had been really peaceful recently.
Firstly, the faction leader of Mount Hua Faction, Yue Changkong had become Chen Xiaobei's loyal hound. All the unsolved conflicts that he had with him were now gone with the wind.
Secondly, the grand elder of Green Town Faction, Su Dongruo had turned into Chen Xiaobei's loyal hound as well. Upon returning to Green Town Faction, Su Dongruo was given some form of punishment. However, he claimed no responsibility for the deaths of the disciples of Green Town Faction. Other than that, he also told his faction leader that he had nothing to do with Chen Xiaobei. That was why Green Town Faction still did not realize the existence of Bei Xuan Faction in Jianghu.
Thirdly, it was about Situ Hengfeng, which was rather weird. A while ago, he ran from Mount Shu Faction. Four of Chen Xiaobei's loyal hounds were trying to hunt him down but their attempts were in vain. If he managed to return to Mount Shu Faction, the truth about the war in Dragon City would be revealed to everyone. Considering the fact that three out of seven heroes of Green Town Faction and hundreds of disciples were killed during the war by Bei Xuan Faction, the faction leader would definitely avenge them if he knew what really happened.
As for Mount Shu Faction, the grandson of the grand leader of Mount Shu Faction, Xu Changqing's Water Shattering Dagger had been robbed off him during the war. Just like Green Town Faction, hundreds of their disciples were killed by Bei Xuan Faction as well.
As compared to Green Town Faction, Mount Shu Faction was definitely more powerful since they had a demigod protecting them. Facing such huge loss, it was definitely a great embarrassment to Mount Shu Faction. It would be terrifying if they came looking for Chen Xiaobei to pay for what he did to them.
Surprisingly, Mount Shu Faction did not do anything about it.
Could it be Situ Hengfeng was not back in Mount Shu Faction Yet?
Or, could it be he was back in Mount Shu Faction but the higher authority had decided that they wanted to suppress this matter first. In the meantime, they could be trying to work out some kind of evil plan to deal with Chen Xiaobei.
Regarding this matter, Chen Xiaobei had no idea what was going on with Mount Shu Faction. All he could do right now was to wait for them to make a move.
Back in Bei Xuan Faction, everyone was really happy to see Chen Xiaobei come back to them. Zhang Chui'er, Murong Xiaoyao, and Qiao'er had woken up really early to prepare a feast to welcome Chen Xiaobei. The four most powerful disciples of Bei Xuan Faction and the other elders like Murong Tian went and gathered around Chen Xiaobei once they saw him step into the faction. Seemingly, they really looked forward to have a good talk with Chen Xiaobei.
After dinner, Chen Xiaobei went ahead to contact all those that did not manage to meet him today. Song Qincheng brought Wenyuan, Nezha, Hong Hai'er, and Lin Nan to attend a function that was held for the people that worked in the entertainment industry. That was why they were not at Dragon City today. Clearly, they were doing quite well recently.
As for Luo Puti, she applied for a long leave to travel to Mount Hua Faction to look for clues about her missing parents.
After that, Chen Xiaobei went and contacted Lin Xiang. However, he could not reach her. Rendered with no other option, he contacted Professor Lim to ask about her. In the end, he got to know that Lin Xiang was going through some kind of extreme training that could boost her cultivation and combat power greatly once she completed the training.
Lan Mengcheng was still residing in Dragon City. After all, the Lan Family was the most powerful family in Green Vine City. They would definitely need quite a long time to pack everything and move to Dragon City.
Lastly, Chen Xiaobei contacted Liu Xuanxin but he did not manage to get to her as well. After making a call to Liu Xiyuan, Chen Xiaobei was told that she went and travel around to look for the right opportunity to achieve Celestial cultivation breakthrough. Undeniably, Liu Xuanxin was one of the rarest prodigies in Jianghu. It would be easy for her to achieve the breakthrough since her current cultivation was pinnacle phase of True Nirvana cultivation.
"I can give her a small piece of my Skybreaking Cultivation Pill if I have one with me right now… Unfortunately, I still need two more ingredients to concoct it… She wouldn't have to travel so far if I work faster toward this goal!"
Chen Xiaobei was worried about her after hanging up the call. For a long time, Liu Xuanxin had been tortured by her illness—causing her not being able to step out from the house. It was only natural that Chen Xiaobei acted in such a way. Fortunately, she was not a timid and weak girl. It was not easy for others to take advantage of her since she possessed really powerful cultivation.
After contacting everyone that he wanted to contact, it was time for Chen Xiaobei to work on a very important matter. There might be a war happened three days later! Currently, the most powerful weapon that Chen Xiaobei deployed to protect Bei Xuan Faction was the Thunder Pool Tesseract and it was buried right in the middle of Bei Xuan Faction.
Chen Xiaobei went over there and pried open one of the green stone tiles. He then moved all the soil aside and a small jade box was presented in front of him. Though the jade box was small, one could see there were countless lightning bolts rumbling inside it. It was as if a completely different dimension was being placed inside it!
"So, this is the true power of Divine Item! Clearly, its Spiritual Attribute has become weaker due to the war that happened some time ago! Still, it's more powerful than a Spiritual Item!"
While observing it, Chen Xiaobei could feel the powerful presence emanated from this Divine Item. Thunder Pool Tesseract was actually one of the low-tier Divine Item crafted by Yun Zhongzi. However, its destructive power was far more terrifying than the other Spiritual Items that he owned.
"Considering that Dragon City is a safe place now and I have someone powerful to protect my Bei Xuan Faction, I think it's fine for me to take it with me for now…"
Retrieving the Thunder Pool Tesseract was why Chen Xiaobei traveled back to Dragon City.
"3,000 Spiritual Stones are needed to power up the Thunder Pool Tesseract. This is huge even for me! I will do it during the war! It's not necessary for me to do it right here right now!"
Chen Xiaobei knew that there were a lot of unknown factors in the upcoming war. Thunder Pool Tesseract was merely a choice of weapon for him. It was not a must for him to use it during the war. He was preparing to head back to Japan after settled everything that he wanted to do.
"Master! Hold on! I have something to ask you. It's been bothering for a very long time! I have to ask you right now because I have no idea when are you coming back next time!"
Suddenly, Chen Xiaobei saw Gordon running toward him.
"Ask away."
There were 24 hours left before the commencement of the Saturn Peach Feast. That was why Chen Xiaobei was not in a hurry.
"During our last conflict in Zhong State, did you really threw the Dark Neutron at me? I did a search for it for seven days and seven nights! Still, I couldn't locate it!"
"Oh… Regarding this matter. I did not throw it! I ate it!"
"What? Ate… Ate it? How's that even possible?"
Chen Xiaobei responded with a smile.
