The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 311 Return to Licheng

Fuguang Town, Yancheng, Zhongjialou. In the training room, Pan Chengfeng was sweating profusely. He had been practicing in the training room for more than a month. Although he failed to break through, he felt the bottleneck more and more clearly. With a thud, Pan Chengfeng put down the seal, wiped the sweat off his face and muttered, "It seems that it is too late to break through. I can only wait until I return to the sect." I thought that after absorbing the dragon blood flower in the red mountains and practicing for this period of time, I would be able to break through. Who would have thought that this promotion would be so difficult.

Pan Chengfeng took a shower, changed his clothes and walked out of the training room. An Yi appeared behind Pan Chengfeng like a ghost, and said with a bow: "Congratulations, young master, your strength has improved again." Pan Chengfeng waved his hand and said: "There is nothing to congratulate, I was planning to break through, but it seems that it is not the right time yet." Since being hunted by the fusion cultivator, Pan Chengfeng has been eager to improve his strength. The feeling of powerlessness in the face of the fusion cultivator made him feel uneasy. The Yu family has seven or eight fusion cultivators in the open, and it is not known whether there are a few hidden in secret.

An Yi followed Pan Chengfeng and reported the recent events. Pan Chengfeng walked towards Qian'er's office while listening. Nothing major happened in the past month, but the Nian family's little tricks have been exposed. Pan Chengfeng was a little confused. What gave the Nian family the confidence to think they were doing it again? And their ancestor who had reached the peak of the Spiritualization Realm seemed to be dying. How dare they challenge the Zhong family, which was at its peak?

Walking into the office, An Er was also reporting some matters to Qian Er. Seeing Pan Chengfeng coming out of confinement, Qian Er walked towards Pan Chengfeng with a happy face and said happily: "You came out of confinement, why didn't you inform me?" Pan Chengfeng pinched Qian Er's little face and said: "It's just a few steps away, I came to find you by myself, what are you talking about?" Qian Er slowly put away her smile, and said with a murderous look: "Those killers of the Yu family are damnable!" An Yi and An Er scratched their faces at the same time, they were the killers trained by the Yu family.

Pan Chengfeng vaguely guessed something and asked, "Have those killers started to act?" Qian'er nodded and said, "Wanbao Pavilion has started to auction the Broken Mirror Pills. Last month, I participated in the auction in Qingxu Town and bought three Broken Mirror Pills. For safety reasons, I sent the three Broken Mirror Pills back to Fancheng separately, but one of them was still hijacked, and the team that escorted the pills also died." Pan Chengfeng looked at An Er and asked, "Are you sure it was the Yu family killers who did it?" An Er nodded and said, "Yes, there would be no one else except them." Pan Chengfeng said, "It seems that we should take action too. Don't let them get away!"

Three days later, Pan Chengfeng and his companions quietly left Fuguang Town, and all matters in Fuguang Town were temporarily handed over to Qing'er and Li Chu. There were two things to do in Licheng this time. The first was to fight for the control of Da Zhou, and the second was to capture Sha Qi and Sha Jiu. Although Pan Chengfeng did not pay much attention to the situation of the three major sects, according to his own estimation, the masters of the three sects combined were not his opponents. Therefore, the control of Da Zhou should be a sure thing.

A few days later, Pan Chengfeng brought Qian'er, Anyi and Qian'er's personal maid to Licheng. After many years, Pan Chengfeng and Qian'er came here again. Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "This time we are not so rushed, so I can have a good chat with Brother Tang~" Qian'er also smiled and said, "Yes, the last time I came here was many years ago. I came and went in a hurry. This time I want to take a good look around Licheng~" As the two were talking, they heard a hearty laugh from a distance: "Haha, Brother Chengfeng, you haven't seen me for many years, why did you take so long to come to see me?"

Pan Chengfeng knew who the voice was as soon as he heard it, and he bowed and said, "Brother Tang, didn't I come to see you as soon as I arrived in Licheng? Have you prepared the spiritual tea? I'm a very picky person~" Tang Tong came to Qian'er, bowed and said, "Hello, sister-in-law~" Qian'er blushed slightly, bowed and said, "Dean Tang is too polite." Tang Tong looked at Pan Chengfeng and said, "I took out all of Brother Yang's inventory, isn't that good enough?"

Pan Chengfeng said with a smile: "That's great, Dean Yang won't be reluctant to let go, right?" Tang Tong led a few people back to the academy and said: "How can Dean Yang have the heart to think about these things now?" Pan Chengfeng was secretly surprised and asked in a low voice: "Is Dean Yang going to break through?" Tang Tong nodded. Pan Chengfeng and he were also friends who had lived together for a lifetime, so there was no need to hide this from him. Tang Tong sighed and said: "Not long after the last battle with the Seven Star Academy, Brother Yang realized something. After sending you off, he began to retreat. It was just to suppress, not to seek a breakthrough."

Pan Chengfeng looked at Qian'er. Qian'er knew that Pan Chengfeng didn't understand again, so she explained: "Breaking through the Void Refining Stage is a big deal. Although Dean Yang has a solid foundation, without the Void Refining Pill, his success rate is estimated to be only 30% to 40%. Tang Tong looked at Qian'er and said with some surprise: "What my sister-in-law said is right. Brother Yang said that without the Void Refining Pill, his success rate is at most 30%. 30% is too low. Brother Yang doesn't dare to try it easily, so he can only suppress it for now. Fortunately, Licheng Wanbao Pavilion will have a batch of Void Refining Pills auctioned in a few months. By then, even if we sell everything we have, Egret Academy will buy a Void Refining Pill for Brother Yang!"

Pan Chengfeng curled his lips and said, "I see, but can the Egret Academy gather enough crystal beads? The Void Breaking Pill would cost at least 30 to 40 million top-grade crystal beads, right?" Tang Tong smiled and said, "In the past, we really couldn't have come up with that much, but now we can still gather it together. We have to thank Brother Chengfeng for his generosity, otherwise the Egret Academy wouldn't be able to come up with that many crystal beads~"

The few of them chatted until they arrived at Bailu College. After Tang Tong arranged accommodation for them, he turned around and left. Suddenly, he remembered something, so he turned around and asked, "Brother Chengfeng, do you know that the owner of Licheng Wanbao Pavilion has been replaced?" Pan Chengfeng said in confusion, "It's fine if he changes. Wanbao Pavilion won't notify me." Tang Tong rolled his eyes and said, "Of course I know Wanbao Pavilion won't notify you, but the person who changed the Wanbao Pavilion in Licheng is an old acquaintance of ours~"

Pan Chengfeng understood immediately and asked in surprise: "You mean that Licheng Wanbao Pavilion has replaced Chu Xuanji as the Pavilion Master?" Tang Tong smiled and said, "Exactly~" This is a good thing for Tang Tong. Chu Xuanji was in Fancheng and was too close to Zhong Wuyan. Tang Tong naturally knew the truth of "the one who is close to the water gets the moon first". Now both of them are in Licheng, which means that they are now on the same starting line, at least Tang Tong thinks so.

Pan Chengfeng said hurriedly: "Let's go, let's go and catch up with brother. I haven't seen him for many years. I miss him so much~" Tang Tong smiled and said: "Don't worry, Brother Chu just came two months ago. There are many things to do in Wanbao Pavilion. He is very busy now. If you want to see him, you'd better say hello before going." Qian'er also advised: "Yes, Chengfeng~ Second Brother should be very busy now. It would be impolite for us to go there rashly."

Hearing what the two said, Pan Chengfeng thought about it. Chu Xuanji had just taken over the Licheng Wanbao Pavilion, and he should be very busy now. If he ran over like this, he would just cause trouble for them. So he took out the communication talisman, silently recited a few words, and sent it out, smiling: "I'll tell my brother that we are already in the Licheng Bailu Academy, and ask him to come to us when he is free~"

After Tang Tong left, An Yi appeared in the house like a ghost and said, "Young Master, the Yu family has many assassins in Licheng. I just went out for a walk and found five groups of assassins. Most of them are at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul, and there is also a group of assassins at the middle stage of the Spiritualization. Killer Seven and Killer Nine have not been found yet." Pan Chengfeng nodded and said, "Don't worry, the Wanbao Pavilion in Licheng will soon auction the Poxu Pill and Pojing Pill. As long as they are in Licheng, they will be able to find them." Qian'er worriedly said, "Could it be that they didn't come to Licheng? Or did they receive other missions and left?"

An Yi shook his head and said, "It's unlikely. I have been in the Yu family for so long and have never encountered such a thing. Since the mission has been issued, it must be completed. The mission of Sha Qi and Sha Jiu is three Broken Mirror Pills and one Broken Void Pill. They will not leave until the mission is completed." Pan Chengfa touched his chin and said, "Yes, maybe they are hiding far away and we haven't found them yet. Don't worry, An Yi, you keep an eye on them. Qian'er, you and I will take control of the Great Zhou first~"

Pan Chengfeng now roughly knew what the three major sects were planning. Since they wanted to unite to squeeze the Zhong family out, Pan Chengfeng would not be polite to them. Qian'er said, "The three sects have already arrived, at the Linxian Villa outside the city." Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "They can't wait, don't worry, don't we still have some time? Let's meet with the second brother first."

An Yi bowed and said, "Young Master, I have carried out such a mission before. Before the auction begins, the assassins of the Yu family will not act rashly. So let me follow you and your wife to Linxian Villa." An Yi was a little worried about their safety and planned to go to Linxian Villa with them. Pan Chengfeng waved his hand and said, "No need, you should keep an eye on those assassins, so that I can go to Linxian Villa with peace of mind. Don't let them run away because of carelessness, it will be more trouble than gain."

In fact, for Pan Chengfeng, killing seven or nine is more important than controlling the Great Zhou. After all, taking control of the Great Zhou is just a little more income. The resources for Pan Chengfeng's later training are astronomical, so he must open up a way to make money. Ten billion high-quality crystal beads a year are still considerable for Pan Chengfeng now. However, compared with the points of the sect, the role of crystal beads is much smaller. After all, many resources of the sect are exchanged for points. The Yu Lei Sect has accumulated for many years. Basically, anything you want can be exchanged in the Yu Lei Sect, as long as you have enough points.
