Martial Virtue

Lotus Cave.

Fang Yu manipulated the wondrous ' Molten Edge Flow ', using the Flowing Flame True Fire to process various materials.

He participated in a mediation between the three kingdoms, and basically became familiar with most of the Foundation Establishment in Mosquito Immortal City. At the same time, he also received a lot of requests for weapon crafting.

Although he mainly crafts magical Law Artifact, with the highest grade being only high-grade Law Artifact, this is just the beginning. Once he gradually builds his reputation, Foundation Establishment cultivators will naturally be willing to seek him out to craft Spirit Artifact. At that time, the high crafting fees will be enough to cover his daily cultivation needs.

As for Fairy Miaoyin asking him to forge Spirit Artifact, he initially thought she genuinely wanted to do so. However, upon further discussion, she claimed that the materials for Spirit Artifact Spirit Artifact precious and asked him to go to the Cloud Spirit Sect's mountain gate to help forge one, promising to give him 30% of the fee upon completion.

Fang Yu refused on the spot. What a joke! Not to mention that he was now a guest elder of Mosquito Immortal City, even if he weren't, he couldn't possibly go to the Cloud Spirit Sect now. If he went there, would he ever be able to come back?

This Fairy Miaoyin was clearly trying to trick him, or rather, not just him, but the other Foundation Establishment in Mosquito Immortal City, or perhaps trying to win them over.

Fang Yu turned around and sent a transmission talisman to ' Jin Guizi ', telling him what had happened. Not long after, he heard that Fairy Miaoyin had offended ' Qian Chongzi ' at a small negotiation meeting and was nearly killed by the Qian Chong.

It is said that the Cloud Spirit Sect leader's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, but he endured it and even apologized to Qian Chongzi, saying that his subordinates were rude and had offended Qian Chongzi.

The ' Qian Chongzi ' found an excuse to teach Fairy Miaoyin a lesson, and it certainly wasn't just because he reported to ' Jin Guizi '. He must have confirmed that Fairy Miaoyin intended to poach his concubine, which is why he took action and gave Cloud Spirit Sect a warning. As for the Cloud Spirit Sect's request for Miaoyin to win over the Foundation Establishment in Mosquito Immortal City, it was probably also to test Mosquito Immortal City's attitude.

Fang Yu didn't take the matter to heart, putting it out of his mind and turning his attention to refining magical Law Artifact and cultivating the ' Red Lotus Karmic Fire '.

Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, several streaks of light arrived outside the cave abode. "Fellow Daoist Lü, how have you been?"

Fang Yu opened the barrier and invited the group to the courtyard on the island. He then took out the magical Law Artifact they had commissioned. "The Law Artifact commissioned by you fellow Daoists have all been completed. Please take a look and see if you are satisfied!"

Chen Cheng and the other Foundation Establishment cultivators took the Law Artifact and examined them, then exclaimed in amazement:

"Fellow Daoist Lü has crafted this Law Artifact so exquisitely that it doesn't look like First-Tier Superior-Grade Law Artifact at all; it has more of the spiritual essence of Spirit Artifact."

"This Law Artifact is even more powerful than ordinary ones!"

"Congratulations on your skill, Mr. Lü! This is my commission fee!"

The Foundation Establishment were very satisfied with the Law Artifact crafted by Fang Yu, readily paid the commission fee, and said that they would definitely come to Fang Yu if they needed anything in the future.

"I'm glad you're all satisfied. Come, come, have some tea!"

Fang Yu called all his customers over to deliver the goods together so that they could see his skills and also learn some information about the peace talks between the Three Kingdoms.

"These three parties have been talking for so long, has there been any progress?"

"This matter can be discussed further!"

"I've heard that the Black Sand Sect and the Heavenly Strategy Manor have recently recruited a large number of Rogue Cultivator and sent them to the Chu Kingdom, where they have conquered the spiritual lands of many Lineage affiliated with the Cloud Spirit Sect."

"If you ask me, the Cloud Spirit Sect brought this on themselves. That was a mid-grade Spirit Stone mine; how could their entire family possibly swallow it? They're just stubbornly holding on."

"By the way, that Fairy Miaoyin seduced all of you before. I've heard her dual cultivation techniques are quite famous!"

"No! No!... How could we be seduced by women..."

When the topic of Fairy Miaoyin came up, everyone shook their heads, all looking like upright gentlemen. However, in Fang Yu's Foundation Establishment, there must be someone in the city who had cultivated with Fairy Miaoyin, and perhaps she had even won them over. Otherwise, ' Qian Chongzi ' wouldn't have reacted so violently and crippled the woman directly.

After chatting for the time it takes to drink a few cups of tea, the cultivators took their leave one after another, and soon only Chen Cheng remained.

"I ran into Array Master Zong Zongzhen a few days ago. He said he has some free time recently and can help Fellow Daoist Lü set up a second-tier array. However, the fee will increase by 30%. In addition, Fellow Daoist Lü will need to leave his cave abode for six months during the setup process to avoid interfering with the array's construction."

Fang Yu smiled and said, "It's wonderful that Array Master Zong is willing to help. The expenses are no problem, and leaving the cave abode is also no problem. I'll just move to the outer city for six months!"

Chen Cheng nodded and lowered his voice, saying, "Fellow Daoist Lü, please don't take offense. The art of array formations is the foundation of Array Master Zong's livelihood, hence the exceptional importance placed on secrecy. Not to mention us, even the City Lord's disciples would have to do the same if they wanted to set one up. However, please rest assured, Array Master Zong are highly trustworthy and would never tamper with the array formations."

Fang Yu smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need for such formalities. With Fellow Daoist Chen acting as guarantor, I am naturally completely at ease."

Dao of Qi Ingestion. Anping Prefecture.

Fang Yu stepped onto the cloud platform and arrived above a city, collecting ' Fire of Ten Thousand Households '.

After handing over the array arrangement to the Array Master Zong, he left the inner city cave abode and returned to his previous small courtyard in the outer city for temporary residence. He then came to the Dao of Qi Ingestion to collect ' Fire of Ten Thousand Households '.

Over the past few years, the development of ' Great Peace Village ' has exceeded his expectations. From his initial perception, there are already tens of millions of followers. With so many believers, collecting four ' Fire of Ten Thousand Households ' to push his own Dao of Qi Ingestion to the seventh level is no problem at all. At the same time, the extra ' Fire of Ten Thousand Households ' can also help him advance to the Dao Foundation Realm.

"Da da da..."

Suddenly, the rapid sound of horses' hooves came from the official road below, and a courier holding a black-armored red flag shouted loudly:

"The new emperor ascends the throne, his Wude ordained!"

Fang Yu's heart stirred slightly.

"Embroidered Tiger has ascended the throne, and his reign title is ' Wude '!"

It's only been a few years, and the chosen one we met at the grand market has already ascended the throne and become emperor in the mortal realm.

Fang Yu subconsciously stretched out his palm, wanting to deduce and sense something, but he stopped the next moment.

'Curiosity killed the cat. This chosen one shouldn't try to calculate things himself, lest he bring trouble upon himself. Besides, even if he did manage to calculate something, the outcome would be predetermined. Even if he has the Yuanchen Pearl to conceal his plans and isn't afraid of others calculating against him, it will definitely alert those in the shadows!'

Suppressing his curiosity, Fang Yu headed to the next city to continue collecting ' Fire of Ten Thousand Households '.

Anping Prefecture is very large, with 72 prefectures and 386 counties under its jurisdiction. This area is comparable to Dongda in my previous life, but it is only one prefecture in Jingzhou.

When Embroidered Tiger declared himself emperor, the territory he occupied was this prefecture. Of course, Anping Prefecture is the term used in the cultivation world; in the mortal realm, it would be equivalent to a country.

Fang Yu also needed to travel all over the place to collect all the "Fire of Ten Thousand Households of Fire of Ten Thousand Households Families" born from the newly added believers. He had to travel all over the seventy-two prefectures and three hundred and eighty-six counties to collect them all.
