2617 Impersonating Himself (2 in 1)
Hundred Alliance City.
Wushuang had been cultivating here for six years. In fact, they had gained a lot from the northern expedition.
This was because those itinerant cultivators had exchanged many things they obtained for godly weapons, so Wushuang had obtained some precious medicines.
Besides, the Monarch-level battle had inspired her a lot. As a strong cultivator who was about to prove Dao, this kind of inspiration was very significant. It could be said that it was something that could only be chanced upon by luck.
Of course, this was not the reason why Wushuang stayed in the Infinite Mining Area. She was actually waiting for Han Fei to return.
!!This day was Wushuang’s fifth year of cultivation in seclusion. Not long after returning from the Mine Demon Stream, Wushuang handed over her power and focused on cultivation.
Suddenly, Wushuang felt that something was wrong. When she opened her eyes, she found that Han Fei was already standing in front of her.
Wushuang’s pupils were constricted slightly, but then she smiled. “When did you come back?”
“Just now.”
Wushuang rose and waved her hand, and a tea table, a tea set, and two chairs appeared in front of her.
She made tea naturally and asked casually, “Have you finished dealing with the matters in Puppet City?”
Han Fei nodded and casually threw out 10,000 level-seven minerals. “This is what I promised to give to your Capital of Horror.”
Wushuang smiled and said, “Actually, there’s no need. Our Capital of Horror has actually benefited a lot from the northern expedition.”
Han Fei shook his head. “But you also took corresponding risks. In the situation at that time, I wasn’t absolutely sure that everyone could survive. In fact, if there was an accident at that time, everyone might die, including you. So, you deserve this.”
Wushuang warmed the water with spiritual fire. Seeing how determined Han Fei was, she nodded. “Thank you very much. Have the Nine Giant God Turtle and Senior Mystic One really died?”
Han Fei nodded. “Yes, those were their remnant souls and not as strong as their original bodies in the first place. They didn’t die with regret. They died in glory.”
Wushuang sighed slightly. “What a pity.”
With that, Han Fei poured out a cup of tea and handed it to Han Fei. Han Fei took it and drank it up. Then, he flipped his hand and took out a golden page.
Han Fei said, “This is my return to the Queen of Horror.”
“Huh?”
Wushuang looked at the golden page curiously. This was what she had been waiting for in the Infinite Mining Area. This thing concerned whether Her Majesty could advance to the level of Great Monarch, so she had to take it seriously.
However, this golden page didn’t have any words!
Just like Han Fei, Wushuang asked curiously, “No words?”
Han Fei said, “This is a word. As long as you activate it with the power of heaven and earth, you can read it. But you’d better not read it. It’s unnecessary and harmful to your body.”
Wushuang asked, “Is it that simple?”
Han Fei asked, “Yes.”
Wushuang was speechless. You’ve already told me. Can’t I be tempted to take a look? This is a treasure that can help Her Majesty advance to the level of Great Monarch. It would be a waste not to take a look. She didn’t believe that she could destroy this writing after taking a look. That would be underestimating the Void Temple.
Wushuang accepted it without further ado. She said, “Now that you’re back, I should go. I’ve learned a lot from the battle in the northern expedition. I feel that my time of proving Dao may be greatly brought forward. If it’s fast, it’ll be thirty or fifty years, and if it’s slow, it’ll be seventy or eighty years. Perhaps the next time we meet, we’ll both be Monarchs.”
Han Fei grinned. “I wish you luck.”
Wushuang asked, “What about you? Your strength has improved rapidly. When are you going to prove your Dao?”
Han Fei said, “I have a lot of things to do. I still have to wait.”
Thinking of Han Fei’s ability to cause trouble, Wushuang couldn’t help but remind him, “Many factions suffered heavy losses in the northern expedition six years ago. Many of them put the blame on you. In addition, you’re now in charge of Puppet City, but you haven’t proven Dao, so many people are coveting you. In the past few years, many Monarchs have secretly snuck into the Infinite Mining Area, so you’d better not show your face in the coming period of time.”
Han Fei smiled. “It should be more than that, right?”
Wushuang said, “Because of the appearance of the Emperor Sparrow, the divine beasts and the ferocious beasts are paying special attention to you, and their purpose is unknown. The divine beasts are most likely extremely hostile to you, but it’s difficult to say for the ferocious beasts. After all, the Emperor Sparrow hasn’t proven Dao and hasn’t grown up yet.”
Han Fei nodded. “So, in fact, the ferocious beasts and the divine beasts have established strongholds in the Hundred Alliance City to monitor my movements?”
Wushuang: “The strongholds were specially established for you.”
“Interesting~”
Han Fei didn’t say much to Wushuang. He simply had a cup of tea and left.
Not long after Han Fei left, Wushuang couldn’t wait to take out the golden page out of pure curiosity. Han Fei didn’t seem to be afraid of her reading it, so he casually told her how to read it.
She poured the power of heaven and earth into it. In the next moment, she saw the golden paper flash with the word “Monarch” written on it.
However, before she had the time to find out what was special about the “Monarch” character, her vision blurred.
It was not that she couldn’t see, but that she couldn’t stop crying. As if driven by some power, she cried crazily.
Wushuang’s first thought was that she might have to use her perception instead of her eyes. However, when she used her perception, her perception also became blurred, and her tears flowed harder.
Wushuang couldn’t have felt worse. She finally understood why Han Fei said not to look at it because it would hurt her body. It was embarrassing.
She couldn’t stop her tears now. She felt that her eyes were constantly sore, and she had to use her tears to soothe this soreness.
Wushuang steeled her heart and her eyes exploded. When her eyes condensed again, she was shocked to find that she was still crying.
“Ah! Han Fei, you liar.”
Han Fei, the culprit, was in a good mood and had already left. He smiled and thought to himself, I cried for three days and three nights and complained about Senior Brother Azure Dragon more than 10,000 times in my heart. Now, someone can finally feel the same pain as I did back then. Just thinking about it made me feel good.
Han Fei had already guessed that the ferocious beasts and the divine beasts would set up strongholds in the Hundred Alliance City.
But he didn’t care. If he didn’t want to be discovered, even a Monarch wouldn’t be able to find him.
He was not going to subdue the ferocious beasts now. After all, there were immortal-level powerhouses on their side. It was almost impossible for the Emperor Sparrow to subdue these ferocious beasts now.
For Han Fei, he had already benefited a lot from this trip to the Infinite Mining Area. Of course, he hadn’t finished his main business yet.
He came here with the intention of breaking the foundation of the City of Scavengers and the City of Origin in the Infinite Mining Area. Previously, he thought that the Infinite Mining Area continuously provided resources to the Chaotic Wasteland, so breaking the foundation here would inevitably cause great damage to the Chaotic Wasteland.
But now it seemed that even if the foundation of these two major factions was really broken, even if he directly destroyed the City of Scavengers, it might not necessarily shake their true strength.
However, since he was already here, he still had to do this thing, but he had to be flexible.
Now, Han Fei didn’t want to directly destroy the power of the City of Scavengers and the City of Origin. It was easy for him to destroy them. With the 200,000 puppet army, let alone the City of Scavengers and the City of Origin, he might even be able to take down the Hundred Alliance City.
Of course, once the puppet army appeared, his whereabouts would be exposed. He hadn’t left the Infinite Mining Area yet, so there was no need to take this risk.
Besides, once the City of Scavengers and the City of Origin were destroyed, it would inevitably alert the enemy, which was not the result Han Fei wanted.
Of course, this didn’t mean that Han Fei wouldn’t do anything. The human race had been enslaved by the Ten Thousand Scale Race for 100,000 years. How could this grudge be offset by the lives of just a few hundred Sky Openers?
…
Half a month later.
City of Scavengers Camp.
City of Scavengers, ranked in the 32nd place of the Hundred Alliance, controlled one super mine, three large mines, seven medium mines, and 23 small mines. It controlled a lot of resources.
However, after the northern expedition, more than half of the strong masters died. Therefore, many people began to covet the resources controlled by the City of Scavengers, and their status naturally began to loosen.
In the past six years, the City of Scavengers lost three mid-sized mines and seven small ones.
This loss was not small. It took the City of Scavengers countless years to take the territory now owned by them. Losing so much in just six years further fueled the confidence of those coveting them.
On this day, an internal meeting of the City of Scavengers was held.
There were 11 Perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators and 21 peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators present. These people were all from the Ten Thousand Scale Race, and none of them were aliens.
At this moment, these people were discussing with each other noisily.
One cultivator with four Dao Locks said, “Master Beihai, I ask our city to send two more three Dao Lock-level strong cultivators over. In just six years, the super mine I’m in charge of has experienced seven battles. At first, it was just a test, but now, without even trying, someone has blatantly started to attack the peripheral strong cultivators of our mine. If this continues, I’m afraid the super mine will be lost!”
Another Dao Lock-level powerhouse said, “Master Beihai, I also request our city to send some people over. In the past six years, we have lost two Dao Lock-level powerhouses and five Perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators. Now we only have six people guarding the three large mines. We can’t defend them at all. I don’t ask for much. As long as I can be given ten more Perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators, it should be enough, OK?”
Another Perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator added, “Master Beihai, I got the news from a camp of the itinerant cultivators recently. The Grand Development Sect is accumulating strength and waiting for an opportunity to snatch our three large mines in one go. If we don’t have people, I’m afraid that unless you take action personally, the three mines might be snatched by those scoundrels of the Grand Development Sect…”
As soon as he said so, a female cultivator of the Ten Thousand Scale Race said, “Master Beihai, in fact, our small mines are the most miserable. In the past six years, as many as 27 people have died in battle, including 5 peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators. Furthermore, more than eight forces have secretly attacked us. They seem to have formed an alliance and can attack us at any time. Master Beihai, we can’t go on like this!”
Knock, knock, knock!
“Humph ~”
Zhang Beihai knocked on the table and said, “Okay, I already know your appeal. Otherwise, why do you think I came to you this time?”
Buzz!
As Zhang Beihai issued an order in his heart, a world phantom was projected, and then as many as 50 Sky Opening Realm cultivators appeared at once. Even the weakest was in the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm.
Zhang Beihai said indifferently, “Don’t the forces outside want the mines of the City of Scavengers? In that case, why don’t we let them take them all at once? I want to see how many people will attack us. Tong Hua…”
“I’m here.”
Tong Hua was the strong master who guarded the super mine alone. Seeing that Zhang Beihai had brought so many people here at once, he was in a much better mood.
Among these people, there were actually three strong cultivators with three Dao Locks. It seemed that their city attached great importance to the Infinite Mining Area!
Zhang Beihai said, “The super mine can be put aside for the time being. I’ll arrange for someone to put on a show with you. Pretend to be seriously injured after killing this person and lure those who are up to no good to take the bait.”
After that, Zhang Beihai looked at the other two. “Chen Di, keep up the act. If anything happens to Tong Hua, you won’t have a good time either. You’ll be a part of the show. Try to attract all the conspiracies and wipe them out at once.”
As soon as Zhang Beihai told them his plan, Tong Hua and Chen Di immediately nodded. This was a wonderful plan to lure the enemy. Once all parties who coveted them found that the City of Scavengers was helpless, they would most likely take the mines first, then fight among themselves or divide them up.
In any case, at that moment, all kinds of monsters jumped out. If the enemies were wiped out, they would definitely be able to reestablish the prestige of the City of Scavengers.
However, among the few people guarding the small and medium-sized mines, someone immediately said, “Master Beihai, what about our small and medium-sized mines?”
Zhang Beihai said, “There are still four mid-sized mines left. I’ll arrange for one cultivator with three Dao Locks and three Perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators to ambush them. But even so, your battle will be a little difficult, because most factions don’t have the ability to compete for super and large mines. Their goal will naturally be small and medium-sized mines.”
Another person hurriedly said, “Master Beihai, who will set up an ambush in our small mines?”
However, this time, Zhang Beihai looked dignified. “No ambush in the small mines.”
“Huh?”
The man’s face changed greatly, and he said quickly, “Master Beihai, small mines are the easiest to snatch. If the forces outside gang up on us, our small mines will be greatly affected, and many people will attack us.”
However, Zhang Beihai snorted and said, “If the small mines are not snatched, what reason do we have to take revenge on them one by one? The northern expedition has made the Hundred Alliance City doubt the strength of the City of Scavengers. So, let’s take this opportunity to annex some small forces. Then we may be able to break into the top ten forces of the Hundred Alliances.”
For a moment, they all gasped. So Zhang Beihai was deliberately throwing out the small mines for others to divide up. After that, he would have enough reason to take action and take back everything with both principal and interest.
At that time, the reputation and power of the City of Scavengers would definitely rise to a higher level, and the resources available would naturally increase greatly.
Zhang Beihai had considered everything except the lives of ordinary Sky Openers and Sea Establishers. He even took it for granted that if their lives could be exchanged for further progress of the City of Scavengers, everything would be worth it.
Those people immediately took a deep breath. “Yes, Master Beihai.”
Zhang Beihai nodded in satisfaction and suddenly asked, “By the way, where is Ye Fengliu now?”
Tong Hua said, “Master Beihai, he is cultivating in our super mine. This person is extremely focused on cultivation. In just a few decades, he is about to enter the Star Transformation Realm and will have a 640,000-kilometer star transformation. He is really a top Heavenly Talent.”
However, Zhang Beihai said casually, “Let him fight in the small mines.”
“Huh?”
Tong Hua was taken aback for a moment. “Master Beihai, he was personally sent over by Master Honghuang. His identity is similar to Bai Ranran’s. At that time, there will be heavy casualties on the small mines. He is still trying to enter the Star Transformation Realm. I’m afraid it will be difficult for him to survive such a big battle.”
“Humph ~”
Zhang Beihai snorted coldly. “No matter how talented he is, he’s not a member of the Ten Thousand Scale Race. Old Zhao thinks he can control everything. This guy’s cultivation speed is extremely fast. If he really reaches the peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm, what, will he still be promoted? If he dies, so be it. If he doesn’t, let him try managing a small mine.”
“Yes, Lord Beihai.”
Tong Hua was speechless. No matter how small a small mine was, it was still a mine. Wouldn’t it attract hatred if he let a person who hadn’t entered the Star Transformation Realm manage it? Who knew when he would be killed?
Just as Zhang Beihai was gloating over his perfect plan, Han Fei walked into the super mine of the City of Scavengers, avoiding the eyes of a two Dao Lock-level cultivator, and went directly to the depths of the super mine.
In a cave deep underground, Zhang Daqian suddenly opened his eyes, and an invisible barrier appeared slightly. Zhang Daqian seemed to be motionless, but in fact, the person sitting here had become Han Fei.
Impersonating Zhang Daqian and capturing Zhang Beihai was Han Fei’s plan.
However, from the looks of it, Zhang Daqian hadn’t been put in an important position yet. The specific reason was that in the eyes of many strong masters in the Infinite Mining Area, Zhang Daqian and Bai Ranran just had very strong backgrounds.
Besides, these two people were both geniuses. In the beginning, they were arranged to take the basic trials many times. However, in less than two years, they had passed all the basic trials.
In the subsequent battles, few people in the same realm as them could compete with them.
Because of this, everyone knew they were talented, so most strong masters neglected to teach them. Basically, they would let them participate in whatever they could participate in. They could cultivate as they pleased as if this was their special privilege.
This was a good thing, but the problem was that Han Fei couldn’t find a chance to approach Zhang Beihai. It seemed that Zhang Beihai just ignored them.
Han Fei thought that he had enough resources for Zhang Daqian to quickly enter the Star Transformation Realm. All he needed to do was disguise himself for two years, and then he could show his extraordinary talent when he entered the Star Transformation Realm to win Zhang Beihai’s favor. Once Zhang Beihai met him alone, his chance would come.
It would only be two years. Han Fei could afford to wait.
However, on the second day after Han Fei disguised himself as Zhang Daqian, Tong Hua, who he rarely saw, took the initiative to find Han Fei.
Han Fei’s first reaction was that he had been discovered. But that’s impossible!
However, Tong Hua smiled and said, “Little Ye! How’s your star transformation progressed recently?”
Han Fei thought to himself, he hasn’t discovered my real identity.
Han Fei rose quickly and cupped his hands. “My lord, I think I can enter the Star Transformation Realm in about two years.”
“So soon?”
Tong Hua was stunned. How many years had it been? Less than twenty years, and he was already about to enter the Star Transformation Realm?
To be honest, Tong Hua had never seen such a monster. But thinking of Zhang Beihai’s arrangement, he said, “Well, very good. If I remember correctly, you tried to enter the Star Transformation Realm 15 years ago. It’s only been 15 years now, and 17 years in two years. Very good. However, you may have to pause your cultivation. I have a very important mission for you. Let me tell you in advance, this mission is abnormally difficult. It’s a combat trial and extremely dangerous. If you’re not careful, you might even die… Little Ye! This is Lord Beihai’s arrangement. I’m afraid you’ll have to take the mission.”
Han Fei’s heart did a flip. Sh*t, a mission? Wouldn’t it waste more time?
Tong Hua continued. “Little Ye! Let me remind you that if you’re really defeated in this actual battle, you’d better retreat. Don’t fight head-on. Your life is more important. With your relationship, even if you avoid fighting, Lord Beihai won’t do anything to you. At most, he will teach you a lesson.”
Tong Hua was not stupid. Ye Fengliu was the strongest Sea Establisher in the 100,000-year competition. If such a person died in his hands, God knew if Zhao Hongyang would blame him.
Therefore, he felt that it wouldn’t hurt to remind Ye Fengliu. After this battle, if Ye Fengliu didn’t die, he would go to manage a small mine. If he died, it would have nothing to do with him.
Han Fei’s heart stirred. What kind of dangerous mission was this? Tong Hua was literally telling him to retreat if he was defeated.
Han Fei pretended to be surprised and then said, “Thank you for your advice, Senior Tong Hua. If I’m really defeated, I’ll retreat and apologize to Lord Beihai in person.”
Han Fei thought to himself, It seems that I just need to be a deserter. Then maybe Zhang Beihai will have to teach me a lesson in person.
And he just needed an excuse to meet Zhang Beihai. That was great! He had thought he would have to wait two years, but it seemed that he didn’t even have to wait a few days.
