Harvests and Hidden Worries, Storm is Coming (Seeking Monthly Passes)

Buzz~

Inside the room, a pale azure glow circulated, casting its light across Chen Ping'an's face.

"Li Wusheng."

Chen Ping'an's eyes were calm, his expression tranquil, without the slightest hint of joy.

Since he had chosen to make his move, he had long foreseen this outcome.

Li Wusheng might have been powerful, but before him, he was really nothing much.

The difficulty of the entire matter had never been whether he could kill Li Wusheng, but whether he could kill him without a sound.

And judging from the outcome, he could say that he had succeeded, or that he had failed.

He had succeeded because throughout the entire process of killing Li Wusheng, no one had come to interfere. Yet he had failed because, before he could thoroughly clean up the loose ends, reinforcements had arrived. During the pursuit, he had even been forced to exchange a move with the other party.

Buzz~

Chen Ping'an's gaze sharpened, and a Golden Finger Panel appeared before him.

"In the end..."

Chen Ping'an's gaze was distant. Once he focused, he clearly saw every line of text upon the Golden Finger Panel.

"I was still a notch weaker!"

That exchange just now had been the most peak strike he had unleashed since beginning his cultivation!

Not only had he employed the Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Art and manifested the Ten Thousand Demons True Body, he had also used a secret technique to unleash the third kill of the Seven Kill Heavenly Dipper Fist. He condensed his Martial Will and stacked the Azure Sun Blood Refinement Method, Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill, and Dragon Elephant Overlord Body Art atop one another.

Then, on that foundation, he borrowed the power of Thousand-Year Stone Milk and an Exploding Essence True Pill to launch a deliberately prepared strike!

The combat power of that strike had unquestionably crossed beyond the bounds of the Jade Balance Realm, reaching directly above the Grandmaster level!

Yet even under such circumstances, after forcibly taking the other party's Blue-Gray Brahma Nail, he had still suffered a slight injury.

The injury was not serious, but it represented that when facing battles at the Pseudo Celestial level, he would still be injured!

If the battle dragged on, as time passed, his injuries would only grow worse and worse.

He did not care what would happen to the other party, but one thing was certain—this was how it would be for him.

In other words, his current body-tempering physique could at most handle the Grandmaster level. When facing Storm Cloud Great Grandmasters whose combat power touched upon that of Pseudo Celestials, the defensive foundation of his body-tempering was no longer so secure!

And this was only in a one-on-one situation.

If he encountered a siege, the consequences would be unthinkable!

"Pseudo Celestial!" A glint flashed in Chen Ping'an's eyes.

Using Pseudo Celestial combat power as the benchmark, there were almost none in the Jade Balance Realm who could reach such a level. Even on the Wind and Cloud Grandmaster Rankings, judging by the rankings updated three years ago, a Storm Cloud Great Grandmaster like the one ranked forty-eighth could at most barely touch the threshold of a Pseudo Celestial.

At most, they could maneuver and fight a protracted battle; they were still far from qualified to contend on equal terms!

Using that old man Qing Fan's combat power as the standard, one would need to rank at least within the top twenty of the Wind and Cloud Grandmaster Rankings to be roughly comparable to him.

In other words, among those in the Jade Balance Realm, the number who could truly reach the level of a Pseudo Celestial would not exceed twenty on the Wind and Cloud Grandmaster Rankings.

Even including those reclusive Great Grandmasters who sought no fame, the number likely would not exceed thirty!

Of course, this referred to the number of Great Grandmasters who could truly contend on equal terms with Pseudo Celestials. If the standard were merely being able to resist, rival, maneuver around, and engage in a drawn-out fight, the number would be much greater.

And among these Great Grandmasters, aside from a small number with special circumstances, a considerable portion had hopes of reaching the Pseudo Celestial Realm, or even the realm of Martial Dao Celestials in the future!

From the perspective of fighting across realms, anyone who could still fight across realms at the Great Grandmaster level had pushed their talent, methods, cultivation arts, secret techniques, foundations, and external objects to an extreme.

Tonight's battle had been exceedingly brief, but it had given Chen Ping'an a more precise assessment of his own combat power.

Judging from the aura of the soul, the person he fought tonight should have been the owner of the aura he had sensed earlier in the treasure pavilion of the Azure Dragon Province Town Pacification Office's inner treasury.

Information had been limited before, and he had not known the other party's exact background. But after their brief clash, having learned of the other's methods and weapon, he could roughly infer the other's true identity.

The old man Qing Fan, whom many also called Elder Zuo—the Great Vassal of the Azure Dragon Province Town Pacification Office's Vassal Pavilion, one of the three great figures of the Azure Dragon Province Town Pacification Office.

His cultivation realm had long since stepped beyond the Great Grandmaster level. He was a genuine Martial Dao Pseudo Celestial!

Though the combat power of a Martial Dao Pseudo Celestial was far inferior to that of a true Martial Dao Celestial, their combat methods and strength were absolutely beyond the reach of Great Grandmasters.

Information regarding Pseudo Celestials had always been highly confidential within the Azure Dragon Province Town Pacification Office. Although Chen Ping'an's authority was high, he knew no more about them.

As for old man Qing Fan's standing in combat power among Martial Dao Pseudo Celestials, Chen Ping'an did not know.

But for the time being, he would treat the other party as an ordinary Martial Dao Pseudo Celestial.

That meant his true combat power was indeed as he had inferred: it had truly reached the level of the top twenty on the Wind and Cloud Rankings.

Furthermore, judging from their brief exchange earlier, he had held a certain advantage in their final clash.

Although this advantage had relied on the power of the Thousand-Year Stone Milk and Exploding Essence True Pill, it was undoubtedly real.

The Wind and Cloud Grandmaster Rankings ranked only combat power, not external objects or methods.

So long as it came from him and he could wield it, it counted as part of his true combat power.

That Blue-Gray Brahma Nail shot towards him at the end was absolutely no ordinary object. In terms of instantaneous might, it was far above a Top Divine Weapon.

Judging from the result of their clash just now, even though his external objects were inferior to the other party's, he had still gained a certain advantage.

Such a scene also meant that, in terms of true combat strength, he should have been above his opponent.

Of course, that was merely something to think about in private.

In battle, strength was never judged by that alone; every method was mixed together.

He had used Thousand-Year Stone Milk and the Exploding Essence True Pill, while the other had used the Blue-Gray Brahma Nail and many treasures. Taken together, he had held the advantage. The other party had balked and dared not pursue him too deeply.

But this had not, after all, been a fight to the death. Whether the other party had held anything back, no one knew.

Thus, all things considered, their initial clash had ended in a roughly even draw.

This situation also meant that, judging from the present, Chen Ping'an's prior assessment of himself had basically been correct. If his combat strength were placed on the Wind and Cloud Grandmaster Rankings, he would surely rank among the top twenty.

At the very least, he would not fall below that result. As for how high he could rise under ideal circumstances, that would depend on the actual setting and conditions of the battle at the time.

"I just don't know what level that old man Qing Fan truly stands at among Pseudo Celestials. If possible afterward, I ought to investigate it properly."

Based on an estimate of ordinary Pseudo Celestials, this was Chen Ping'an's standard of combat strength. But what if the other party's abilities were above those of an ordinary Pseudo Celestial!?

Then Chen Ping'an's true combat strength might be even stronger than he currently believed.

"Also, among the three great figures of the Azure Dragon Province Town Pacification Office, aside from the Chief Administrator, I wonder which is stronger—the Mystic Yellow Absolute Sword or that man?"

Such thoughts flashed through Chen Ping'an's mind.

Judging by the order of rank within the Azure Dragon Province Town Pacification Office, Mystic Yellow Absolute Sword Zhang Tianyuan held the post of Deputy Division Head with Real Authority, ranking above the Great Vassal of the Vassal Pavilion.

If combat strength and status were forcibly tied together, then Zhang Tianyuan's overall strength ought to surpass the other party's.

However, matters of status could not be generalized so simply. When there was a gap in rank, this way of looking at things might work every time. But when their statuses were roughly equal, one could not judge so crudely based solely on seating order.

After all, aside from strength and status, interpersonal connections, accomplishments and prestige, and personal temperament could all affect shifts in rank.

Unless there was a qualitative change in strength, this principle still had to be relied upon.

"No matter what, unless it is necessary, I should avoid going all out as much as possible! The more often things like this happen, the greater the unknowable risks become!"

Chen Ping'an's gaze sharpened slightly as he silently reminded himself.

The number of experts in Azure Dragon Province City still exceeded his estimates. Though he had made preparations in advance, and the worst-case scenario should not occur, before something like that actually happened, who could say for sure!?

For many things, it was best not to rely on the hands of others. Only by holding his sense of security firmly in his own hands could he be truly at ease.

That said, Chen Ping'an did not regret acting tonight.

Li Wusheng's actions had already touched his bottom line. If he did not kill him, his heart would not be at peace.

Moreover, there were the unknown dangers that might arise afterward.

He was about to leave Azure Dragon Province City, so naturally he had to resolve this source of trouble as early as possible.

This matter concerned Zhaoheng. For her sake, he was willing to take a little risk.

His enmity with Li Wusheng went back a long way. It had begun with Blood Bat Wei Yiqi.

Their positions had differed, so there was no need to dwell on right or wrong. But judging from the outcome, his interests had suffered losses because of Li Wusheng.

Naturally, he could not simply sit and wait for death.

Previously, although he had entertained thoughts of killing Li Wusheng, it had not been so urgent overall. But now—

Heaven's sins may yet be forgiven; man's sins cannot be lived through!

If tonight's battle had taken place more than half a year ago, then if he had wanted to kill Li Wusheng, they would likely have had to exchange blows back and forth. Forget killing him—even defeating him would have taken quite some time.

Even if he had used every method at his disposal, he could not necessarily have guaranteed Li Wusheng's death. His external methods, divine weapons, and treasures had all been lacking.

But now, dealing with him was as easy as taking something in hand, effortless and pleasant.

The Azure Flame Four Directions Command Flags set up a trapping domain. He opened with the Soul Splitting Thorn, blasted Li Wusheng back with a punch, triggered the miraculous effect, shifted positions, and established victory with the force of a single fist.

Then, with swift shifts and transformations, he restrained Li Wusheng's trump card methods and, with a killing blow, utterly destroyed Li Wusheng's essence, qi, and spirit.

All told, in fewer than ten moves, a Great Grandmaster nearly at the level of the Wind and Cloud Grandmaster Rankings had fallen at his hands.

And throughout the process, he still had trump card methods he had not used.

In just over half a year, such a gap was enough to drive one to despair.

"Time..."

Chen Ping'an tilted his head slightly upward, a faint sigh in his expression.

Having grown and accumulated strength all the way to this point, he could now effortlessly kill any existence beneath the Storm Cloud Great Grandmaster level.

Even those whose combat strength touched the Storm Cloud Great Grandmaster level merely required him to spend a little more effort.

The only ones he could truly regard as opponents were the highly ranked Storm Cloud Great Grandmasters, and—

Those above Great Grandmasters!

His spiritual essence was incomparably refined. Though its quality could not compare to Soul Power, in an actual battle, when the two collided, it was not especially inferior.

He possessed the innate endowment of the Golden Finger Panel, had condensed the foundation of Nine Spiritual Patterns, and had undergone the purification and enhancement of the Dual Cultivation Method.

Taken together, although there was still a certain gap between it and the Soul Power of a Pseudo Celestial, it was no longer so unimaginably distant.

Although Pseudo Celestials also possessed Soul Power, compared to true Martial Dao Celestials, their Soul Power was flawed, insufficiently pure, and somewhat mixed.

When facing foundations and reserves like Chen Ping'an's, it could not achieve a final blow.

During the earlier pursuit, the Pseudo Celestial possessed Soul Power and the ability to fly through the air. Chen Ping'an had not yet reached that realm and could not truly fly; he relied more on true essence to support his body, Spirituality Guidance, and explosive aerial dashes.

The entire process consumed an enormous amount.

The expenditure of these two could not be compared.

That was also why, in the past, the other party had concluded that Chen Ping'an would not be able to hold out for long.

Yet Chen Ping'an's true essence was vast and his reserves deep. With sheer overwhelming quantity, he forcefully erased that gap.

And this—

was merely Chen Ping'an's current level.

A Pseudo Celestial's soul had flaws; on the path ahead, they could no longer make progress except through external objects. Yet Chen Ping'an still had tremendous room to improve within the Great Grandmaster realm.

Setting aside the Second Stage of Breakthrough and the Third Stage of Breakthrough, take cultivation methods as an example: whether it was bringing the first refinement of the Azure Sun Blood Refinement Method to completion or undergoing another purification of true essence through a Dual Cultivation Method, either could bring a qualitative leap in his combat strength.

Furthermore, he had plans regarding external means. Not to mention distant prospects—even in the near term, fully refining the Treasure Prototype, the Skyfall Cold Star Saber, would raise his combat strength to a certain extent.

With his Martial Path Realm, he could fully unleash the Skyfall Cold Star Saber's might. With this weapon, he could look down upon all in the Same Realm!

According to Chen Ping'an's calculations, before he truly stepped into the Martial Dao Celestial realm, he had every chance of gaining the power to cross realms in the truest sense. With his many accumulated reserves, offensive secret arts, and Dao Protecting External Objects, he could battle a Martial Dao Celestial!

Bzzzt—

The light trembled. Chen Ping'an raised a hand, and several bottles of healing pills appeared before him.

He had sustained minor injuries in this battle, especially the faint marks left on his hands, which needed to be healed as soon as possible.

He had already taken pills once before. After a brief interval, he could take another dose to activate their Medicinal Effect and recuperate quickly.

If he did not deal with them properly, this matter might become a flaw.

Fortunately, the injuries on his hands were shallow. With the physical body forged by Azure Sun Blood Refinement and his body-tempering cultivation, recovery was merely a matter of time. At All Costs, by stimulating his vital essence, he could mend the wounds by daybreak.

"Luckily, I forcibly took it head-on at the final moment and didn't directly injure my vital parts. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable!"

With injury marks on him, Chen Ping'an's hope of keeping his identity hidden was nothing but self-deception.

Combat techniques were combat techniques; what they wounded were resources and reserves, wealth and assets.

And this time was no exception.

It had been rare for him to go all out, yet he had already lost quite a bit of resources and wealth.

Fortunately, the foundations were unharmed and his trump cards remained intact. What had been expended were merely minor scraps and leftover bits.

To buy a trace of time and blend falsehood with truth, Chen Ping'an had deployed three divine weapons in succession.

The Mystic Light Treasure Mirror, the green bamboo tube, and the Gray Fine Net.

Yet all three were merely ordinary divine weapons. Against a Martial Dao Pseudo Celestial at the height of their power, the outcome went without saying.

After only one face-to-face exchange, the spirituality of all three divine weapons was severely damaged, and they all shattered.

Though there was still a possibility of repairing them, viewed as a whole, there was no longer any need.

"I'll find a chance to sell them later." Once Chen Ping'an's thoughts settled slightly, he made his decision.

With his current Martial Path Realm, ordinary divine weapons were already beginning to fall behind his pace. In the future, they would only fall further and further behind.

For him, rather than spending energy repairing divine weapons, it was better to consider and plan for superior treasures.

To ordinary Grandmasters, divine weapons were precious, but at the Great Grandmaster level, ordinary divine weapons truly were not much.

That was true even for Great Grandmasters, let alone Pseudo Celestials.

The power of a Pseudo Celestial was enough to shatter divine weapons! Even Powerful Divine Weapons might not escape unscathed.

Only the finest among Powerful Divine Weapons might withstand battles of this level.

But even so, it was difficult to avoid a situation afterward where their spirituality was depleted and the divine weapons suffered wear.

Yet at this point in his thoughts, a trace of concern surfaced in Chen Ping'an's heart.

Earlier, to buy time, he had thrown out three divine weapons in one breath. Though he had concealed them and adjusted his aura, it was ultimately still a hidden danger.

While the two divine weapons might not have been one of a kind, if this matter were investigated thoroughly, it would likely become a source of trouble.

The only thing worth celebrating was that, at the time, he had gone all out; his aura had been incomparably violent, the phenomena of battle had stirred the Spiritual Energy, and he had further concealed himself. The opportunity had vanished in an instant, so the other party might not truly have seen through it.

But even so, waves still rose in Chen Ping'an's heart.

After repeatedly considering the matter, Chen Ping'an could finally determine with rough certainty that the other party probably had not seen through the origins of his divine weapons. Or rather, given the situation at the time, when facing an opponent of the same level, the other party might not have had the energy to pay attention.

Chen Ping'an's thoughts gradually settled, and he slowly put aside his concerns.

Now that things had come to this, overthinking was useless. Rather than worrying, it was better to find a solution.

After the three divine weapons were scrapped, the divine weapons currently on him had been updated to: the Dark Iron Ingot, Bone Claw Gauntlet, Colored Square Cloth, Gale Knee Guard, and Skyfall Cold Star Saber in the open.

And in secret: the Seven Luminaries Finger Sheath, Hundred Illusions Divine Blade, Azure Flame Four Directions Command Flags, Black Mystic Iron Mask, and Dream Illusion Pearl.

Without realizing it, he had accumulated so many divine weapons. Even after scrapping three, he still had enough to count on both hands.

With such lavish wealth, he too had experienced the treatment and comforts enjoyed by those genius disciples.

However, everything he had obtained had come through painstaking effort and careful planning. A large portion of the other party's gains, on the other hand, came from tilted resources and preferential cultivation.

After all these years of twists and turns, he had finally managed to stand on the same level as those first-rate monstrous prodigies.

Even if a gap still remained, it was now one he could see.

In this battle, aside from the loss of a divine weapon, Chen Ping'an had also consumed an Explosive Vitality True Pill and half a portion of Thousand-Year Stone Milk. He had obtained both items from the Heavenly Luo Saintess.

The many losses, all told, amounted to no less than several thousand Origin Crystals!

It was likely more than ten thousand!

"What a fight that was!" Chen Ping'an gave a helpless, bitter smile.

No wonder those old fellows never made a move. If it were him, he would not make a move either!

There was no benefit in fighting, and if anything went wrong, one would suffer considerable losses.

Who the hell would step up in that situation?

One fight cost over ten thousand Origin Crystals. How long had a family force of this kind spent accumulating its foundations?

If they failed to gain anything on top of that, they would truly be losing all the way to grandma's house.

Fortunately, Chen Ping'an's move this time had not been without gains. All things considered, he had still made a tidy profit.

Li Wusheng had quite a few good things on him. Apart from the several thousand Origin Crystals in the Thousand Mechanisms Pouch, there were many precious pills, spiritual items, mineral materials, and resources. There were also numerous scrolls and secret manuals. Taken together, they were worth no small sum.

Moreover, Chen Ping'an had found a pair of Ink Jade Rings, a Golden Silk Belt, and an Azure Thunder Light Pearl on Li Wusheng.

Chen Ping'an had not yet had time to study the specific uses of these items. However, he had briefly searched the Thousand Mechanisms Pouch along the way, and had already destroyed any unnecessary or suspicious objects.

Only the things he believed posed no problem had been kept.

The numerous gains left him quite satisfied.

Some of those scrolls and secret manuals were things Chen Ping'an did not possess. He could study them carefully to broaden his knowledge and deepen his experience.

Resources such as the precious pills and spiritual items had also greatly expanded his reserves. Some could be sold off, while some could be kept for his own use.

With these gains, Chen Ping'an's liquid assets officially surpassed the hundred-thousand mark.

Solely by liquid assets, his financial strength was astonishing enough to look down upon those in the Same Realm.

The only pity was that he had not found the Cultivation Technique Inheritance for the Absolute Sound Palm among Li Wusheng's reserves.

Li Wusheng had been famous for many years, so the Absolute Sound Palm was naturally no ordinary cultivation technique.

Had he obtained it, Chen Ping'an would have liked to cultivate it properly and enhance his offensive combat strength.

But unfortunately, he had not found it.

The situation had been urgent at the time, so he had not had the chance to search Li Wusheng's residence.

Still, aside from this one small regret, there was nothing else lacking.

Chen Ping'an was in no hurry to examine the remaining items. Tonight, recovering from his injuries took priority; everything else could be set aside for now and carefully investigated much later.

Speaking of which, Chen Ping'an roughly knew the uses of those items.

The Azure Thunder Light Pearl in particular was exceedingly famous.

It was absolutely a terrifying weapon that could serve as a trump card.

The Azure Thunder Light Pearl was a one-time consumable creation.

With a single strike, it carried the might of thunder!

Even a Storm Cloud Great Grandmaster would have to face it with caution. It was incomparably precious.

A weapon of this level, even if it could only be used once, was likely worth no less than an ordinary Top Divine Weapon.

Presumably, Li Wusheng had expended no small amount of effort to prepare such a trump card.

It was said that above the Azure Thunder Light Pearl was the Golden Light Thunder Pearl. With one strike, even a Pseudo Celestial would find it Difficult to Handle.

However, such secret treasures did not circulate in ordinary provincial territories. Even a trade center spanning Several Provinces like Mystic Spirit Major City was unlikely to have channels through which to acquire one.

Perhaps only Azure Green Province, the absolute center of the surrounding seventeen provinces, might see secret treasures of that kind appear.

According to the rumors, there were even higher-level existences beyond the Golden Light Thunder Pearl. But Chen Ping'an knew very little about that.

Secret treasures of this level were not things one could wield freely just by possessing them. Triggering and activating them required meeting exceedingly harsh conditions.

That was also why Chen Ping'an had been able to forcibly stop Li Wusheng when he tried to activate it earlier.

Furthermore, the attacks of such secret treasures were indiscriminate. They would not weaken merely because you were the treasure's owner. If one did not make sufficient preparations and find the right angle before triggering it, the result might be a case of injuring the enemy for a thousand while suffering eight hundred oneself.

In short, any high-power secret treasure was a double-edged sword. Its power and its risks were often directly proportional.

Without sufficient means, using one rashly would be like a child wielding a sword, only to wound himself instead.

It was not until daybreak that Chen Ping'an recovered from his injuries.

The reason he had recovered so quickly, aside from his injuries being relatively light, was inseparable from the quality of his physique.

He primarily cultivated body-tempering combat arts, so his fleshly body and physique had always surpassed those of ordinary people. Although the Azure Sun Blood Refinement Method had yet to reach the entry level, it had still granted him a certain degree of bodily protection and Bloodline Divinity.

In addition, Chen Ping'an drank a little Spirit Spring water, nourishing his spirituality and feeding it back into his physique.

Under the combined effects of several factors, he recovered in just half a night.

Only once his injuries had healed did Chen Ping'an truly relax.

Without any tangible proof in the form of injuries, unless they completely tore off all pretense, no one could pin their suspicions on him.

Even if there were some loose ends, there was still plenty of room to maneuver.

After recovering from his injuries, Chen Ping'an did not immediately leave the room. Instead, he swallowed a Snow Spirit Leaf and began cultivating.

Before closing his eyes to cultivate, Chen Ping'an suddenly thought of something.

They always said that being hunted down was the best time for miraculous encounters and romantic adventures. So why did nothing happen when it came to him!?

According to the biographies and Classics, when a chosen protagonist was pursued, he would, through Fortuitous Coincidence, hide in a woman's bedchamber and stir up an amusing affair.

From the initial misunderstandings and quarrels to relying on one another through life and death, such an experience had made countless people green with envy.

Unfortunately.

Biographies were biographies, after all. Where in real life could there be so many romantic adventures?

But—

Chen Ping'an's gaze darkened, and he closed his eyes.

A flawless, perfect face surfaced in his mind.

A Moon Skirt, raven hair, a wooden hairpin, and—

That tenderness beneath the moonlight.

It had vanished in a flash, yet felt so vividly real.

A kiss beneath the moon—one kiss, Qingcheng overturned!

Romantic adventure, romantic adventure... perhaps it happened to others after they were hunted down, while his had happened before.

Only—

Chen Ping'an steadied himself, and his distracting thoughts gradually faded.

She was so cool and aloof—hardly the type for a pair of bickering lovers!

His thoughts scattered, his stray notions vanished, and only a faint azure glow flowed through the room.

Bzzzz~

+1!

Cultivate, cultivate—cultivate an ordinary heart, do ordinary things.

And just as Chen Ping'an was cultivating, a storm quietly swept across the entirety of Azure Dragon Province City.

The matter of the nighttime assault on the provincial city was reported to the Northern Border Pacification Bureau through an exceedingly secret channel.

Li Wusheng's death, a suspected expert near the top of the Wind and Cloud Rankings, Ten Thousand Demons Sect techniques, the shadow of the Heavenly Luo Sect—each and every matter landed upon the desks of those in power at the Northern Border Pacification Bureau.

Furthermore, Mystic Yellow Absolute Sword, who was outside handling the aftermath of the Dragon Peace Turmoil, received an urgent message delivered by flying falcon from the Azure Dragon Province Town Pacification Office and rushed back to Azure Dragon Province City at top speed.

Storm is Coming—the wind had already filled the tower.
