Star Dragon God
At this moment, Bing exclaimed, "You don't know, after I dealt with those people from Xiaoyao Fortress, the Underworld Palace suddenly appeared and tried to capture me. They had a large number of people, and I couldn't hold them off for long. I escaped here with the Ice Puppet. Once I reached a place with water, I used the swamp's water to hide my presence and that of the Ice Puppet, mimicking the aura of the swamp to evade detection."
Hearing this, Huo Feng's eyes gleamed coldly as he said fiercely, "Underworld Palace, I will come for you soon."
Then Huo Feng patted Bing's head and smiled, "I'm glad to see you're okay. Let's go meet up with Xiaoyao Fortress and the Free Alliance."
With that, Huo Feng took Bing and flew towards Xiaoyao Fortress.
Upon arriving at Xiaoyao Fortress, Huo Feng's Holy Star Radiance effect had ended, allowing everyone to move normally again without suffering as they had before. However, those who were internally injured could not be fully healed by Huo Feng's Holy Star Radiance, so they continued to sit in the quiet Xiaoyao Fortress and began their cultivation.
At this time, Zhao Alliance Leader had also recovered significantly. Sitting there cultivating, his Origin Force alternated between green and white. Huo Feng noticed Rofu standing on the highest rooftop nearby where they were cultivating. He leaped over to Rofu's side.
Seeing Huo Feng, Rofu looked at Bing on his shoulder and smiled, "Your friend is quite impressive; he managed to handle so many people without a scratch."
Bing seemed to understand his words and jumped up on Huo Feng's shoulder, dancing around. Huo Feng chuckled and shook his head while the divine beast lightly tapped Bing on the head before turning to Rofu and saying, "Brother Luo, could I ask you for a favor?"
"What's wrong, Brother Huo Feng? Why so formal with me? Just say what you need; if it's something I can do, I will definitely help," Rofu replied confidently.
Huo Feng looked down at Serene City and said, "There are too many forces in Serene City and the surrounding towns, but none can suppress the others. It will inevitably lead to chaos and suffering."
After finishing his thought, Huo Feng turned to Rofu, who responded, "That's true. Is what you need my help with related to this?"
"Exactly. I believe our Free Alliance has people everywhere. I'd like to ask Brother Luo to quickly send a message to the current ruler of Treeheart City on my behalf. Request that they send some forces to Serene City to take control here and select a suitable faction to nurture," Huo Feng explained.
Rofu understood that once they left, the entire area ruled by Serene City would fall into chaos since Serene City secretly supported Xiaoyao Fortress. Rofu quickly replied, "Alright, I'll arrange it right away. You can leave this matter to me, Brother Huo Feng."
Huo Feng nodded at Rofu and then watched as Rofu headed towards Serene City, where the members of the Free Alliance were located.
After Rofu left, Ice jumped onto Huo Feng's shoulder and leaned close to his ear, asking, "Big Brother, when are we going to the Underworld Palace?"
"In a few days, after things settle down here," Huo Feng replied.
Ice bounced around on Huo Feng's shoulders, feeling bored, and said, "Big Brother, this is so boring. How about this: you stay here by yourself, and I'll go train. I feel like there's such a big gap between us right now, and we might face even greater dangers in the future. I want to fight alongside you and not hold you back."
Huo Feng looked seriously at Ice and said firmly, "What are you talking about? Holding me back? Besides, isn't it the older brother's duty to protect his younger brother?"
However, seeing Ice suddenly become serious, Huo Feng added, "Since that's the case, you can go. Take this with you; it will help you. Also, Venerable Fan prepared this for you."
Huo Feng took out a Dragon Statue from the Narcissistic Ring and placed it on the ground. Ice looked at the massive Dragon Statue with excitement and laughed heartily, "Hahaha... This is great! With this thing, I believe I can catch up to you soon."
Suddenly, Ice opened his mouth wide and inhaled deeply towards the large Dragon Statue. To everyone's surprise, the enormous Dragon Statue was sucked into his stomach. Then Ice cheerfully said, "Big Brother, I'm off now."
"Remember to come out within three days. At that time, we'll go to the Underworld Palace together. If you don't come out by then, I'll leave you here," Huo Feng reminded Ice.
By this time, Ice had already walked far away. However, Huo Feng knew that with Ice's level of ability, he had certainly heard Huo Feng's words; it was just that the Dragon Statue was too tempting for him, and he was too excited at that moment.
...
Two days later, most of the members of the Free Alliance had recovered; only a few with lower cultivation levels still had some issues. As for Zhao Alliance Leader, he was the one who had been injured the most severely but was also the strongest among them. Although he hadn't fully healed yet, he could still handle ordinary opponents.
At that moment, people from Treeheart City arrived, led by Zhou Wu. They brought along dozens of people this time. As soon as Zhou Wu saw Huo Feng, he excitedly rushed over and tightly grabbed Huo Feng's arms, exclaiming, "Brother Huo Feng, you're simply like our Wanmu Family's savior!"
Huo Feng smiled at Zhou Wu, noticing that he showed signs of breaking through to Oblivion Tempest, which surprised him since it had only been a short time. Huo Feng said, "Congratulations! You seem like you're about to break through soon."
"I have to thank you for the device you made for me. Although it doesn't last permanently like the Soul of the Tree Heart, it can help us more effectively," Zhou Wu replied, having released his hands. After all, he now represented Treeheart City and had to consider its reputation.
At that moment, Rofu brought Zhao Alliance Leader over. When Huo Feng saw Zhao Alliance Leader arrive, he bowed and said, "Teacher!"
Zhou Wu recognized him as the Zhao Alliance Leader from the Free Alliance and stepped forward with a smile, saying, "Zhao Alliance Leader!"
Zhao Alliance Leader returned the smile and nodded at Zhou Wu, saying, "Young City Lord."
Huo Feng dreaded such formal greetings and quickly changed the subject. "Brother Zhou Wu, I assume Brother Luo has informed you of the purpose of my invitation?"
"Yes! I know all about it. Don't worry, Brother Huo Feng, I'll take care of this matter," Zhou Wu said confidently.
Huo Feng nodded and said, "I know that Treeheart City is going through tough times right now, but I didn't expect you to send so many people."
"Indeed. Next, we will go to Underworld Palace with Huo Feng, so we'll leave this place to you. I'll leave Rofu and some others here to assist you," Zhao Alliance Leader added.
Rofu, who had been silent until now, suddenly became anxious and exclaimed, "No way! I want to fight alongside you; that sounds so exciting!"
Hearing Rofu's enthusiasm made Zhou Wu laugh heartily. "Hahaha... Brother Luo's personality is quite similar to mine. If I were representing Treeheart City now, I'd also want to fight alongside Brother Huo Feng."
However, Huo Feng smiled at them and said, "You all shouldn't argue about this. My initial plan was for the teacher and them to stay behind while I go alone. Besides, with such a vast area ruled by Serene City, Brother Zhou Wu and your team won't be able to manage everything."
Upon hearing this from Huo Feng, everyone looked at him with concern. Rofu insisted, "This won't do! The people from the Three Major Forces are cunning and treacherous. You should know about Duan Huan from Xiaoyao Fortress. If Zhao Alliance Leader is injured, let me accompany you instead while Zhao Alliance Leader arranges things here with our Free Alliance members."
Huo Feng shook his head and said, "Don't worry, am I afraid of them using any tricks with my strength? Also, don't forget, I have a good brother, Bing, going with me. He should be coming out soon."
At this moment, Zhao Alliance Leader also said, "Alright, stop arguing. Let's go with Huo Feng's plan."
"Leader, you..." Rofu looked at Zhao Alliance Leader in disbelief.
Zhao Alliance Leader glared at Rofu and said, "Why do you always think about fighting? Besides Huo Feng, I'm the strongest here who can contend with Lu Hui. However, I'm still injured and can't fight at full strength. If we go over there, it will only distract Huo Feng because he'll worry about our safety. Letting him go alone allows him to fight without holding back."
Rofu then suddenly understood, and Zhou Wu nodded in agreement. Seeing that they had come to an understanding, Huo Feng said, "Since it's settled, I'll go find Bing now. We'll set off for Underworld Palace tomorrow."
With that, Huo Feng headed in the direction where Bing had left last time. Meanwhile, Zhao Alliance Leader looked at Huo Feng's departing figure and quietly said to Rofu, "Make sure all our spies keep a close watch on Huo Feng's movements."
Rofu looked at Zhao Alliance Leader in confusion and asked, "Leader, what are you planning?"
Zhou Wu chuckled and said, "Zhao Alliance Leader is still worried about his beloved disciple. Are you planning to secretly follow him to Underworld Palace?"
Zhao Alliance Leader burst into laughter and then tapped Rofu on the forehead, saying with frustration, "Look at you! You should learn more from him."
