Yulan River

"Since that's the case, it's better to let you have a happy and joyful journey. ൠ😾 👤👮 Besides, I'm trying to find ways to prepare for you. If it weren't for meeting this Lord Feng, I would have thought of other ways in Blackstone City to ensure your safe arrival in Chier Prefecture City." Lambert said honestly.

In that small rural town, Jenny and Keane were far from happy.

The town's nobles coveted Jenny's beauty, and Keane was often bullied. Even knowing the journey would be dangerous, Keane and Jenny would still give it their all.

After all, once they become city lords, their Fate will truly change.

"Grandpa Lambert, is this road dangerous?" Jenny's expression was complicated.

Lambert sighed, "I initially thought it wouldn't be too dangerous, but now it seems that your old woman is truly ruthless. She was already planning to make her move in Blackstone City. The journey to Chier Prefecture City will likely be very dangerous."

"Grandpa Lambert, why didn't you just tell Brother Feng back then?" Jenny glared at Lambert.

"I can't say it outright," Lambert shook his head. "After your father died, your aunt practically controlled the Chier Prefecture City. She has quite a few skilled fighters under her command. If you ask Lord Feng to fight against the de facto ruler of a county, I'm afraid he won't risk it for you and your siblings. After all, it's very dangerous."

The power wielded by the de facto ruler of a prefecture is astonishing.

He probably has some level eight experts under his command, but it's unlikely he has any level nine experts. Even if he did, just one would be remarkable. After all, level nine experts usually serve the ruling family of a province or the emperor. It's unlikely they would serve a city lord of a prefecture.

However, killing can be done not only with swords and knives, but also with poison, traps, and so on.

"Is it dangerous?" Jenny hesitated for a moment. "Grandpa Lambert, you should get some rest." With that, Jenny left Lambert's room.

After Jenny left Lambert's room, she didn't go back to her own room, but instead headed towards Lin Feng's room.

Three knocks on the door.

"Come in," Lin Feng's voice rang out, and at the same time, candles in the room were lit.

Jenny pushed the door open and came in.

Lin Feng got out of bed, sat down in a chair, and said with a smile, "It's so late, Jenny, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Brother Feng," Jenny sat down, took a deep breath, and mustered her courage to look at Lin Feng, saying, "Brother Feng, I must tell you a fact."

"What facts?" Lin Feng asked, looking at Jenny.

Jenny said apologetically, "Actually, Keane and I have always lived in a small town in the countryside. We haven't been to my father's place in a long time. We're not familiar with Chier Prefecture City at all, and we might not succeed in inheriting the position of city lord this time."

Jenny is a very kind girl. She now understands the dangers ahead and doesn't want Lin Feng to suffer with them.

"Oh," Lin Feng simply replied.

Lin Feng sighed inwardly, thinking that Jenny was indeed a very simple and honest girl.

Seeing Lin Feng's Lin Feng, Jenny assumed he didn't understand and quickly explained, "Brother Feng, at first I also thought that this trip to inherit the city lord's position was either a success or a failure, and we'd just go back. But things aren't that simple. Someone wants to kill us this time, and it's very likely that it's someone sent by Auntie. She might have even more powerful methods in the future, and it will be very dangerous for you to be with us."

"Very dangerous?" Lin Feng laughed. "How dangerous?"

Seeing Lin Feng like this, Jenny nodded anxiously, saying, "It's very dangerous. Auntie is now in charge of Chier Prefecture City, which is equivalent to the power of a county lord."

Jenny said with some shame, "Brother Feng, I'm so sorry I didn't tell you these things before. You didn't have to risk your life for us. It wasn't worth it."

"Ha ha"

Lin Feng laughed and said, "Not worth it? In my opinion, it's very worth it. As for danger? Whether it's dangerous or not, I know much more about it than you do. Alright, Jenny, go back to sleep early."

"Brother Feng." Jenny looked at Lin Feng in a daze.

"Let's go back," Lin Feng said with a faint smile.

Jenny looked at Lin Feng gratefully, "Thank you, Brother Feng." But then, looking at Lin Feng earnestly, Jenny added, "Brother Feng, I really don't want you to take risks for us."

"Go back to sleep." Lin Feng's face hardened, and he deliberately snapped.

Lin Feng had always been very kind to Jenny, so his stern face really startled Jenny.

"Oh." Jenny nodded obediently like a child, then turned and walked towards the door. Actually, Jenny was still a little happy at this moment. After all, Jenny was also an eighteen-year-old girl. It was normal to feel affection for an outstanding young man who was kind to her. She didn't really want to part ways with Lin Feng like this.

Jenny walked to the doorway and suddenly turned around.

Jenny smiled and said, "Brother Feng, you have a stern face, but you're actually quite cold." After saying that, Jenny quickly ran out of Lin Feng's room like a mischievous little girl.

Lin Feng was both amused and exasperated by what he saw.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng calmed himself and returned to bed, quietly sitting cross-legged to begin cultivating his soul. No matter when or where, Lin Feng dared not give up his cultivation.

Not only does he need to avenge his parents, but he also needs to have enough power to protect those he cares about. Lin Feng knows that the Yulan will be in extreme chaos in the next hundred years. Without sufficient strength, protecting all those he cares about is nothing short of a pipe dream.

Although he could establish a relationship with Beirut and have him protect his wife and other close relatives, it was impossible for him to ask Beirut to protect his close brothers and their families as well. For example, the Yale family's Dawson Chamber of Commerce would soon be controlled by a god-level powerhouse from the Gebada Plane, and Yale would also be controlled by a death-type god-level powerhouse. George might even be killed. If Lin Feng did not have enough strength, all of this would happen again.

This is definitely not what Lin Feng wants to see.

Because Lin Feng had dealt with the remaining assassins, they were not attacked again in the morning.

Although Lin Feng had killed all the assassins, he couldn't be sure that Lady Weide wouldn't send anyone else to assassinate them. So, on Lin Feng's advice, the group changed their route to water.

The largest inland river in the entire Yulan is undoubtedly the Yulan River. The Yulan River enters from the North Sea, and its main channel runs through the O'Brien Empire, the Yulan Empire, the Luo'ao Empire, and the Rhine Empire. Some of the Yulan River's tributaries are even more numerous, spreading throughout the various regions of the four major Yulan Empires.

It can be said that the Yulan River has nurtured most of the people living in Yulan.

"What a vast river!" Lin Feng sat on the deck of a large multi-storied ship, looking at the endless, surging waters of the Yulan River around him, and was deeply impressed. "This river's width probably surpasses even the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers."

This multi-story ship was directly hired by Lin Feng.

For 10,000 gold coins, one can directly reach the riverbank closest to Chier Prefecture City. That riverbank is less than 100 li away from Chier Prefecture City.

"Brother Feng." Jenny came out of the cabin.

The wind was strong in the middle of the river, blowing Jenny's long dress and hair. Jenny smiled at Lin Feng, walked over to Lin Feng, and sat down on the deck. "Brother Feng, I'm sorry to have troubled you." Jenny said this somewhat embarrassedly.

To Jenny and Keane, ten thousand gold coins was already a huge sum of money.

But to everyone's surprise, Lin Feng actually rented such a large ship. The rental price for such a large ship is extremely expensive. The distance from Blackstone City to Chier Prefecture City is 10,000 gold coins. This is only because the other party saw the black leopard beside Lin Feng and wanted to show respect for such a powerful person as Lin Feng, so they gave him a very low discount.

Lin Feng protected the siblings for free, and even spent 10,000 gold coins to hire a boat. This made Jenny feel really embarrassed.

"Jenny, don't you think the scenery here is beautiful?" Lin Feng got up and walked to the top of the deck, where the edges were secured with chains.

Lin Feng stroked the iron chain and looked around.

The mighty Yulan River stretches for tens of thousands of miles, wide in some places for miles and narrow in others for hundreds of meters. It is the mother river of Yulan, nurturing countless people. Yulan's history can be traced back hundreds of thousands of years. "This Yulan River must have existed for at least hundreds of thousands of years."

Looking at the surging Yulan River, Lin Feng couldn't help but imagine the scene hundreds of thousands of years ago. Admiring the vast Yulan River, Lin Feng's heart and mind broadened considerably.

Lin Feng had never seen the vastness of the Yangtze River or the magnificence of the Yellow River in his previous life, so it was understandable that he found the Yulan River to be extremely imposing at first glance.

"People or nations from hundreds of thousands of years ago have long since vanished without a trace. Compared to this historical upheaval and the rise and fall of nations, personal grudges seem so insignificant."

Facing the vast river, Lin Feng had a special feeling.

"Now, six colossal entities stand tall in the Yulan: the Four Great Empires, the Radiant Church, and the Dark Church." Lin Feng remained calm and composed.

Since Lin Feng transmigrated to this world, he has been pondering one question: why did he transmigrate to this world? Was it a dream or an illusion? If it was a dream, then this dream was far too real.

Three years of arduous training in the Magical Beast Mountain Range naturally cleansed his soul, washing away the dust and clamor brought from the modern city. It allowed Lin Feng to achieve a state of tranquility, completely transforming him into a butterfly.

The captain of the ship was very relaxed. Although the current in the Yulan River was quite rapid, it was much safer than the ocean. He even chatted comfortably with the sailors beside him.

"Hey, see that black panther?" the captain said smugly. "That's a magical beast. You watch, my son won't be long before he tames one too."

"Captain, that's a leopard-like magical beast. Can your son tame it?" The sailor next to him laughed. Actually, there wasn't much difference in status between the captain and the sailors; they were all men who made their living on the sea.

The captain sighed, "High-level magical beasts! I really admire those powerful individuals. I remember last year when I went to the Imperial Capital, I saw the War God Sect recruiting disciples. Wow, you wouldn't believe it! So many powerful individuals, riding giant magical beasts or piloting flying magical beasts, rushed there to compete for that one and only spot. In those battles, the experts moved so fast I only saw a blur—it was too fast, too fast!"

The sailors then began boasting about the masters they had encountered.

In the O'Brien Empire, almost every child wants to become a strong person from a young age, and joining the War God Sect has become the ultimate goal.
