Xu Feng used the Ice Spider Web to bind Hua Wanduo. Seeing that Hua Wanduo had stopped struggling, he thought for a moment, retracted the Ice Spider Web, and granted Hua Wanduo her freedom. He said, "Hua Wanduo, I won't make things difficult for you. You can leave now. In ten days, I will bring Hua Du to Wuhua Island. If Elder Qiu and Cai Shujun are missing even a hair, I will make Wuhua Island pay with their lives."
Hua Wanduo fell onto the rooftop, the poison from the Ice Spider Web numbing her body. She struggled to stand up, her face alternating between shades of blue and red before turning ashen gray.
From the moment they fought until she was captured, Xu Feng had subdued Hua Wanduo in just two moves. Hua Wanduo was renowned alongside Qiu Wuling; it took Hua Qian Zhi three moves to capture Qiu Wuling. How could this Xu Feng be even more formidable than Hua Qian Zhi at the Nascent Soul Stage? This was impossible. Hua Wanduo's expression turned despondent, as if she had aged fifty years in an instant.
The cultivators witnessing all this below were immediately stirred.
"Wow, Xu Feng took down Hua Wanduo in two moves! He seems even more powerful than Hua Qian Zhi from Wuhua Island!"
"You don't know anything! Those two moves from Xu Feng were continuous actions; it counts as just one move. Do you understand?"
"Xu Feng is going to Wuhua Island in ten days to take someone. Why don't we join in the fun and see if Cai Shujun is missing a hair? If Xu Feng finds that Cai Shujun is missing a hair, he'll kill someone."
"Of course there will be losses! Do you think Wuhua Island is that polite? They wouldn't use expensive shampoo on Cai Shujun..."
The poison of the Ice Spider Web wasn't very strong; Hua Wanduo forced the toxins out of her body after several attempts using her spiritual power. Watching Xu Feng standing calmly on the wall, completely disregarding her and even showing no interest in killing her, she felt ridiculous for thinking she could rescue Hua Du from him.
Feeling disheartened, Hua Wanduo activated her Flying Sword and flew toward Wuhua Island in a daze.
Seeing that there was nothing more to watch, the cultivators below dispersed in a rush, returning to their tea houses and dining halls, spreading exaggerated tales about the battle between Xu Feng and Hua Wanduo.
After dismissing Hua Wanduo, Xu Feng spread his Wings of the Strange Dragon and flew straight to the outskirts where the Lin family resided.
Xu Feng's good relations with the Fog City Lin Family were no longer a secret; rumors suggested that two new Golden Core Cultivators had recently emerged from the Lin family, likely related to Xu Feng's involvement.
When Lin Jia met Xu Feng, they had already received news of Xu Feng's return. As soon as Xu Feng landed, he was invited to the living room by Lin Shaocong. Everyone was already familiar with each other, so there were no formalities. After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xu Feng entered a secret room with Lin Fangxin. Lin Shaocong knew about his son's relationship with Xu Feng and felt like an outsider, so he refrained from delving too deeply into the secrets of Koukou Group.
In the secret room, Lin Fangxin detailed the matter of recruiting disciples for Koukou Group to Xu Feng.
"Thirty people?" Xu Feng stroked his chin and said, "If we can recruit thirty people from two or three, that would be good. These thirty will be the first batch of disciples for Koukou Group. Is their current residence safe?"
"It is safe in Mist City, but," Lin Fangxin revealed a hint of pride and said, "I plan to send them away tomorrow."
"Where to? We don't have enough manpower; we can't take care of them if it's too far."
"Wan Jian Sect."
"Wan Jian Sect?" Xu Feng was taken aback and then thought of something, saying joyfully, "Could it be that Gao Jingsong..."
Lin Fangxin then explained, "Group Leader, as soon as you left, Gao Jingsong returned early. He had been in seclusion at Wan Jian Sect for a while to take over Wan Jian Sect. The Grand Elder of Wan Jian Sect entrusted him with some sect secrets and personally guided Gao Jingsong in his martial arts cultivation."
Xu Feng said, "But aren't we disciples of Wan Jian Sect?"
Lin Fangxin sighed lightly and replied, "Group Leader, Wan Jian Sect has already become a shell of its former self. We are not going to revive Wan Jian Sect this time; instead, we are using Bailu Mountain as our foundation to develop the influence of Koukou Group. From now on, Wan Jian Sect will be removed from Liuxiang Xian Dao."
Now it made sense to Xu Feng. Zhu Wanda had no intention of rebuilding Wan Jian Sect; bringing back Gao Jingsong was merely to pass on what he had learned throughout his life. As for the reputation of the sect, he had already let it go. Without Zhu Wanda's approval, Gao Jingsong would not dare to let Koukou Group take over Bailu Mountain.
The issue that had been troubling Xu Feng regarding the location of Koukou Group's sect was finally resolved. With Bailu Mountain as a foundation, the development of Koukou Group would be much easier.
"Gao Jingsong has already returned to Wan Jian Sect to prepare for the establishment of the group. I plan to send the people over tomorrow."
Xu Feng nodded and said, "Right now, Koukou Group's strength is insufficient, so we need to keep a low profile and avoid making enemies. The current conflict between Wuhua Island and the Five Faction Alliance is a great opportunity for our development. Tomorrow, I will escort you to Bailu Mountain, and in ten days, I will go to Wuhua Island to rescue people. Many matters regarding Koukou Group will have to be entrusted to you and Gao Jingsong. I appreciate your hard work."
Lin Fangxin replied, "Group Leader, you flatter me; this is part of my duties." In just half a month, Xu Feng had advanced from the Mid-Stage of Golden Core to the Late Stage of Golden Core, defeating Hua Wanduo with two moves. With such talent by his side, there was no fear of lacking a bright future.
Xu Feng took out a storage bag and handed it to Lin Fangxin, which contained five hundred thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones. He said, "Use these spirit stones wisely. Getting things done is the key; don't hesitate to spend money. If you run out, just come to me." Five hundred thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones equated to five million Low-Grade Spirit Stones; any sect in Liuxiang Kingdom would feel immense pain parting with such an amount.
Lin Fangxin was already accustomed to Xu Feng's generosity. Even though he was surprised by the spirit stones he received, he had no idea that Xu Feng was currently not lacking in spirit stones at all; he had plenty of High-Quality Spirit Stones in his space and could easily pull out thousands to shock anyone.
The two confirmed the route and timing for Koukou Group's relocation the next day. Xu Feng returned to his secret chamber and refined one thousand Fifth-Level Spirit Pills, two hundred of each of the five attributes.
The next morning, Xu Feng handed one thousand Yuan Ling Dan to Lin Fangxin. With this batch of pills, there was no doubt that all disciples at the Refining Qi Stage would successfully establish their foundations, with at least half of the Foundation Disciples reaching the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. With money and medicine available, if they didn't upgrade now, it would be unreasonable; they might as well be pigs.
Several ordinary-looking carriages were parked in a nearby forest not far from the Lin family. Zhao Hu jumped down from one of the carriages and ran over to Lin Fangxin, whispering a few words. Lin Fangxin nodded and said, "Alright, take them over and get them on the carriage."
Zhao Hu responded affirmatively and led several assistants quickly toward the other end of the forest. Thirty newly recruited Koukou Group disciples had already been brought out from their residence and were waiting for the carriages to arrive so they could board and relocate.
Lin Fangxin did not arrange for White Eagle from Spirit Beast Manor to minimize unnecessary trouble. The relocation of thirty cultivators would inevitably attract attention from those who were observant. However, traveling on White Eagle was different from riding in a carriage; it was not comparable to taking a train versus flying on an airplane.
Soon after, sounds began echoing through the forest as thirty disciples orderly climbed into the carriages.
At that moment, there was a sudden explosion in the air; leaves were blown away in all directions. The thirty disciples boarding the carriages paused as several mixed-breed horses became startled and neighed in an attempt to flee but were firmly held back by trained grooms.
A snow-white pillar of spiritual energy shot up from the Elder Council of the Lin family, rising like two people embracing each other into the sky for nearly two hundred meters before gradually fading away.
Xu Feng's face lit up with joy as Lin Fangxin finally realized what was happening. He let out a strange cry and hurriedly ran toward the Elder Council.
Yi Jiuzhou, who had first encountered obstacles and had been unable to advance for a long time, finally broke through and successfully ascended to the Golden Core Path just as the Koukou Group was preparing to leave.
After nearly four months of countless attempts and using various medicines, Yi Jiuzhou had still been unable to condense his core. Unexpectedly, at the moment when Xu Feng needed personnel, he finally lived up to expectations and succeeded in his advancement.
The door to the secret chamber had already been opened. Lin Shaocong stood outside with three elders, while Lin Fangxin and Xu Feng rushed over but were stopped by the elder responsible for guiding Yi Jiuzhou. The elder said, "Xu Daoyou, do not rush. Yi Jiuzhou has extraordinary talent; this time he has accumulated thickly and will burst forth. If I am not mistaken, his advancement is not yet complete."
Not yet complete? What does that mean?
Soon, the answer emerged. Surrounded by white light, Yi Jiuzhou released another strong beam of light. This beam was not as dazzling as the first but was equally powerful, rivaling the scene of Lin Fangxin's advancement years ago.
In just a few minutes, Yi Jiuzhou astonishingly advanced two levels in a row, leaping from Foundation Establishment Late Stage to Golden Core Mid-Stage!
The onlookers outside were astonished, their eyes nearly popping out. To advance two levels in one go! What an incredible feat! In the history of Liuxiang Kingdom, there had only been one instance of such an advancement, which dated back several Ten Thousand Years ago when someone moved from Foundation Establishment Stage to Foundation Establishment Late Stage.
For someone like Yi Jiuzhou to leap two levels across realms was unprecedented. No wonder it took him so long in seclusion to break through; he did not make a sound until he surprised everyone!
Xu Feng estimated that with such an extraordinary performance, even his own balanced cultivation of the five elements would pale in comparison.
As the radiance surrounding Yi Jiuzhou gradually faded, his previously flushed face turned pale. The rapid advancement of two levels had exhausted all his spiritual energy reserves. In this brief moment of weakness, Yi Jiuzhou appeared exceptionally frail.
An elder from the Lin family with the same attributes gently approached and pressed on Yi Jiuzhou's shoulder acupoint. Jinxi's spiritual energy slowly flowed into him, and Yi Jiuzhou's complexion gradually improved with the infusion of energy. After about ten minutes, he returned to normal.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and felt reassured. The elder waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave. One by one, they exited, leaving only the elder inside.
After leaving the Elder Council, Xu Feng said to Lin Fangxin, "Let's not leave just yet; let's wait for Yi Jiuzhou to come out before heading up Bailu Mountain together."
Lin Fangxin also understood the meaning of Xu Feng. Since Yi Jiuzhou had just advanced, it would be best for him to transfer to Bailu Mountain for cultivation, where the Spiritual Energy was abundant, which would be more beneficial for stabilizing his cultivation level. He immediately called Zhao Hu to arrange for the rescheduling.
With such a talent emerging from Koukou Group, Group Leader Xu was overjoyed and took out a large number of spirit stones to express his gratitude to Lin Shaocong and several elders, which made Lin Fangxin roll his eyes. This Group Leader was truly a spendthrift, treating spirit stones like mere pebbles.
Due to Xu Feng and Yi Jiuzhou being in closed-door training, Koukou Group missed the opportunity to compete for the It Mountain Spring when the Otherworldly Secret Realm opened a month ago. Now that both Yi Jiuzhou and Xu Feng had advanced together, their strength was formidable, making the benefits of the Otherworldly Secret Realm seem trivial.
Time passed quickly, and Xu Feng remained vigilant at the Elder Council. Hua Qian Zhi would undoubtedly be furious after inspecting the Azure Dragon Mountain Range. If he came looking for trouble, the Lin family would face disaster. Xu Feng did not dare to be careless and kept a close watch on the movements in Mist City.
Fortunately, there were no incidents overnight. Yi Jiuzhou finished his training and emerged from the secret chamber with Golden Core Mid-Stage strength that amazed everyone. The crowd congratulated him, and Xu Feng was so happy he couldn't stop smiling.
After the excitement subsided, Lin Fangxin detailed the current enemy situation in Liuxiang Kingdom to Yi Jiuzhou and requested an immediate transfer to Bailu Mountain.
Yi Jiuzhou had no objections. Soon, more than thirty members of Koukou Group boarded their carriages and headed towards Bailu Mountain.
