Zhao Yuejia pointed at himself and sneered, "Don't want to acknowledge him? Perhaps you'd rather I become the Immortal Lord?"
The five people shook their heads frantically.
Judging from the current situation, Xie Feng is powerful, but he doesn't seem to have engaged in indiscriminate killing. Regardless of whether he is reliable or not, they are safe at this moment.
But Zhao Yuejia, that guy is a bloodthirsty criminal!
All five of them were selected from the Immortal Alliance and were law-abiding immortals. How could they associate with criminals or even take orders from him?
The conflict between the convicts and the Wilderness City runs deep, and the thought of a convict becoming Immortal Lord is utterly despairing.
What's even more terrifying is that Zhao Yuejia clearly possesses the ability to become Immortal Lord, yet he hasn't touched the essence of Immortal Lord for nine thousand years. No one knows what he's thinking!
People die for money, birds die for food. As long as the person isn't a criminal and their immediate interests aren't harmed, what difference does it make who they follow?
They made their choice quickly.
"Greetings, Immortal Lord!"
The five people quickly lined up and bowed to Xie Feng.
They chose to submit!
Xie Feng stared at them for a moment, then asked, "What are your names?"
The burly man with a thick beard. " Meng Hao!"
Middle-aged beauty. " Jiang Xieyue!"
Old man with white beard. " Lu Wan!"
The thin young man. " Qin Dai!"
The woman in the blue dress. " Yun Ruochan!"
All five of them were at the Immortal King realm. After learning more, Xie Feng discovered that Qin Dai was also a high-grade Immortal-level Alchemist, Yun Ruochan, who looked slender and petite, was actually a beginner -Immortal Grade -level blacksmith!
In the Upper Realm, apart from Martial Dao cultivation, other Dao of Alchemy such as alchemy and forging are the same as those in the Lower Realm, starting from the Subordinate First Rank.
Even in the Upper Realm, where extraordinary talents abound, their abilities were quite remarkable.
This was an unexpected bonus.
Xie Feng thought of Sushang and his group waiting outside the Great Wilderness Heaven, so he tossed Lu Wan and the others a token from the Xuanji Sect and instructed them to bring their sect members to the Wilderness City.
The five men bowed and prepared to leave.
Xie Feng called them back, "The three of you are enough. Also, repair the main gate of the Immortal Lord's Mansion."
Before they arrived, Zhao Yuejia had smashed the gate to pieces with a single slap, and they had forgotten to repair it.
The five bowed their heads in agreement, their backs to Xie Feng, and launched into a fierce but silent exchange of barbs.
They're vying for a spot to go abroad!
Nobody wanted to stay here facing Xie Feng and Zhao Yuejia!
A moment later...
Meng Hao, Qin Dai, and Jiang Xieyue left.
Lu Wan and Yun Ruochan remained in the main hall to await orders.
People's hearts have changed!
What happened to the promise of respecting the elderly and caring for the young?!
The old man and the young man wept.
Xie Feng decided to familiarize himself with the Wilderness City. He walked out of the Immortal Lord's Mansion, followed by Zhao Yuejia, and behind Zhao Yuejia were Lu Wan and Yun Ruochan, like a string of grasshoppers.
This city is exceptionally vast, spanning tens of millions of miles, and as far as the eye can see, it seems endless.
Lu Wan said, " My Immortal Lord, you'd better stay in the Immortal Lord's Palace. It's not safe in the city; powerful criminals often come to extort money from you. If you stay in the palace, you can avoid the war."
Xie Feng: "..."
Why didn't you say so sooner?
Do we have to wait until he's left the mansion and onto the street before we speak?
That's so hypocritical!
Xie Feng was speechless, but he wasn't afraid. He had fought quite a few people on his way from the outer perimeter to the First Zone and then to the Wilderness City.
Lu Wan's words piqued Xie Feng's interest, and he asked curiously, "What did those convicts extort?"
Lu Wan raised his eyelids and quickly glanced at Zhao Yuejia, Zhao Yuejia immediately flew into a rage. "What the hell are you looking at me for? I've never robbed your Wilderness City!"
"Yes, yes, yes..."
Lu Wan was embarrassed for a moment, then wiped away his cold sweat and said, "They came wanting weapons, survival supplies, elixirs, and Cultivation Method. The former Immortal Lord valued peace above all else, so as long as there was no conflict, he tried his best to give them what they wanted."
Is harmony the most valuable thing?
The truth is, we can't beat them!
Xie Feng thought to himself.
He continued, "Who are the people who frequently come to extort money?"
"Most of them are powerful criminals from the first, second, and third districts, such as Meng Shou and Chi Hun. They are strong and have a fierce personality. Every time they come, they will wipe out the entire area, which makes us suffer a lot."
"However, although Lord Zhao is the strongest among the convicts, he never stoops to participate in robbery and extortion. That is True Lord!"
"And you, Immortal Lord, are now the new master of the Great Wilderness Heaven. With your strength, no criminals will ever come to cause trouble again!"
Lu Wan flattered Xie Feng and Zhao Yuejia twice, which pleased them greatly.
They continued walking, passing numerous dilapidated buildings in the Wilderness City. Xie Feng pointed to a Little Mu and asked, "What is this place?"
Lu Wan replied, " My Immortal Lord, this is the Wilderness City Study, where the history of the Great Wilderness Heaven is recorded."
Although he didn't understand why the bookstore was placed outside, Xie Feng vaguely sensed something extraordinary about it, so he left the three of them behind and went inside alone.
Outside the Wilderness City, dust billowed as a group of people approached, exuding a bloodthirsty aura and carrying weapons, their killing intent palpable.
They are convicts from District Two!
"The Third District is incredibly audacious to dare launch a sneak attack on us!"
"Hmph, we've fallen into a trap without realizing it. Once we've resupplyed, we'll go back and fight our way out!"
"Going to the Wilderness City every time is too troublesome! Let's just capture those two Alchemist and have them refine pills for us!"
"Those two are good at escaping; catching them will be really difficult."
The convict spoke loudly, his eyes like those of a greedy jackal.
The leader was a burly man with red eyes and a broad back. He carried a spiked club on his shoulder, his face was cold, and his aura was extremely intimidating.
Chi Hun!
The strongest criminal in District Two!
They arrived at the Wilderness City just as three Immortal Venerable emerged.
When Meng Hao and his two companions saw this grand procession, they couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines, remembering the times they had been bullied and extorted.
The former Immortal Lord, Lie Wei, adopted a "take whatever you want" policy towards convicts. As long as they didn't harm him, they could take whatever they wanted and create whatever they wanted; after all, he could just regenerate everything he looted...
Because of this cowardly immortal Immortal Lord, his subordinates did not resist and simply let things be; their lowest wish was simply to stay alive.
These convicts are the nightmare of the people of the Wilderness City!
The bandits are here again!
The three were awakened from their nightmare. Terrified, they shrank back, hunched their shoulders, and tried to slip away quickly along the base of the city wall.
Chi Hun, carrying a spiked club on his shoulder, sternly ordered them to stop, but the three were only thinking about how to escape and had no intention of obeying!
Chi Hun felt utterly humiliated. These good-for-nothings usually hated him and would kowtow to the ground, but today they were so audacious that they weren't afraid of him at all!
Enraged, Chi Hun gripped his spiked club in one hand and stretched out the other, charging towards Meng Hao, the burly man with the thick beard at the head of the group!
You're asking for it!
Chi Hun reached out and grabbed Meng Hao's collar, raising his spiked club high. Just as it was about to fall, an ice sword suddenly pierced through the air and, with a crack, severed Chi Hun's right arm!
Blood splattered across the sky!
