“Go back,”

Xu Fan said without regard to the reactions of others, and took the initiative to leave while holding Xu Yixue’s jade-like hand.

The members of Hongmen naturally followed behind.

Many cultivators from the Island Country watched as Xu Fan left safely, with none daring to make any rash moves, let alone even entertain the thought of attacking.

The Sword Saint was known as the protector of the Island Country, and his combat power was so strong that probably no one else in the entire country could match it.

Since even the Sword Saint had been killed by Xu Fan, they were frustrated, yet unable to detain Xu Fan.

Among the onlookers, there were also a few members of the Oda clan, who upon witnessing the scene, were suddenly dispirited, feeling their hopes had been crushed.

They had hoped that Mr.

Qin could kill Xu Fan and break the curse, subsequently helping the Oda family to grow strong and powerful.

But they didn’t expect Mr.

Qin to be burned into nothingness, and even the Sword Saint had perished under Xu Fan’s sword.

It seemed that the only way for the curse to be lifted was for Xu Fan to court death himself; otherwise, they would live under the curse for the rest of their lives.

This meant that from today onwards, the power of the Oda clan would plummet sharply.

“Chief Steward Li’s foresight is really remarkable.

This Protector Xu is too fierce; he’s probably not inferior to even the leader of Dragon Group,” a middle-aged man from Yan Country praised internally.

Then, without drawing any attention, he proceeded to a secluded place and reported the results of Xu Fan’s consecutive battles to Li Fuqiang via the Flame Dragon APP.

“Boss, if the higher-ups were here, they’d probably have the same expression as us,” a young man chuckled nearby.

“What do you think?” the middle-aged man asked with a cheerful smile.

…

The two battles that took place in the rural area of Dongjing City of the Island Country were too sensational, shocking to the world, such that it took less than a quarter of an hour for the news to spread among the global cultivators.

It was like a single stone causing three thousand ripples.

Like a clap of thunder on a clear day.

Cultivators all over the world were stunned!

Unbelievably…

a young man from Yan Country, named Xu Wufang, had fought two intense battles within half an hour, first incinerating a thousand-year-old perfect God Realm demon from the Island Country, and then cleaving the Island Country’s protector, the Sword Saint, with a single sword.

Such prominence overshadowed the entire world.

Cultivators everywhere, both domestic and international, were dumbstruck upon hearing the news, and could not calm down for a long time.

The fall of Shuten-doji was secondary, after all, it was a mythical figure, and many people initially saw it as a mythic being, with most of their exposure being limited to games or anime.

But the fame of the Sword Saint, Liusheng Chuntree, had spread far and wide, shining across the global Cultivation World like the sun in the sky.

????0.??

Although Liusheng Chuntree had rarely appeared in public since gaining the title of the Island Country’s number one, and his reputation somewhat faded over time.

However, his strength was recognized by the global Cultivation World, as one of the top-ranking experts who had swept through many strong opponents from various countries.

Who would have thought that after lying low and hidden for half a century, his return to the world should have created an uproar, but instead, he became a stepping stone, and at the cost of his own demise, he helped a young God Realm practitioner from Yan Country ascend to the divine echelons, how tragic…

how lamentable!

Truly, no one expected such a sudden turn of events.

Yan Country, headquarters of the Flame Dragon Organization.

The news just reported by the agents stationed in the Island Country hit like a huge wave, shocking the upper echelons of the headquarters.

The resounding reputation of the Island Country’s Sword Saint, Liusheng Chuntree, was acknowledged even by them, deeply ingrained in their hearts.

“`

After all, the Sword Saint had justly defeated an Elder of the headquarters.

Subsequently, he was killed by a young protector who had just been promoted to the rank of a Sky-level within the organization.

Hahaha…

Xu Fan’s position, the seat of a protector, is hardly a match for him now.

“It is a fortunate event for our Yan Country, a blessing for the Flame Dragon.

First, we had the Yanjing Twin Stars, Xu Fangli and Qin Qinglong, leading the new generation and holding the fort in the south and north.

Now another figure, Xu Wufang, has emerged, whose achievements have shaken the world.

This old man feels immensely comforted,” he said.

In the conference room, Li Fuqiang could barely hide his excitement, his face flushed with color.

As Xu Fan’s sponsor and the good friend of his late father, he was naturally thrilled to see Xu Fan’s outstanding brilliance.

Having said that, he purposefully looked over at his rivals, Ye Duanchang and Jiang Taikuang, with a smug expression.

Previously, these two were especially against Xu Fan joining the Flame Dragon, and now that Xu Fan had accomplished such a great deed, they probably felt as uncomfortable as if they had eaten shit.

Naturally, Li Fuqiang was delighted.

“Chief Steward Li speaks the truth.

Protector Xu truly possesses astonishing brilliance,” Ye Duanchang said with a purse of the lips and a faint smile.

Despite Li Fuqiang’s annoyingly arrogant attitude, he couldn’t help but share in the glory, since Xu Fan had after all slain the Sword Saint of the Island Country, a symbol of the Island Country’s Sword Dao mythos.

He felt an uplifting sense of satisfaction.

That’s because, half a century ago, the Flame Dragon Elder who was defeated and severely injured by Liusheng Chuntree was his own martial uncle.

Not only had he been defeated, but he also lost his right arm completely, severely damaging the foundations of his cultivation and ending his martial path.

He eventually died filled with resentment.

If his late elder were to know that Liusheng Chuntree had been killed by a powerful member of the organization, he would surely rest in peace in the netherworld.

Therefore, Ye Duanchang’s animosity towards Xu Fan decreased somewhat, as his favorability towards him increased.

“Old Li, don’t be too happy just yet.

Protector Xu killed the Sword Saint in the Island Country.

The Island Country will definitely not take this lying down and might take some actions that are unfavorable to Protector Xu,” Chief Steward Qin Jiumo suddenly said with a frown.

“Ah, if you hadn’t reminded me, I’d have completely overlooked this matter.

If the Island Country is willing to go to any lengths to save face, even mobilizing the military…”

Li Fuqiang’s expression changed at the thought, his gaze intensifying.

Not wishing to wait, Ye Duanchang was the first to take a stand, slapping the conference table sharply and declaring in a deep voice, “This is a feud within the Cultivation World.

The secular government of the Island Country has no grounds to intervene.

Should they dare to harm Protector Xu, I, Ye Duanchang, will not stand for it.”

Upon hearing this, Li Fuqiang, Qin Jiumo, and Jiang Taikuang were all taken aback.

But before any of them could reply, an impatient Ye Duanchang had already risen and flashed out of the conference room, leaving behind echoing words: “If we don’t put some pressure on the Island Country, Protector Xu’s return journey will indeed be difficult.”

Qin Jiumo was suddenly at a loss, his face full of confusion.

Ye Duanchang’s attitude towards Xu Fan had undergone such a significant shift—could it be that seeing Xu Fan’s immense strength, he was thinking of switching sides?

Li Fuqiang saw what was on his mind and shook his head, explaining, “The Flame Dragon Elder who was defeated by Liusheng Chuntree back then had a relationship of a martial uncle and nephew with Chief Steward Ye…”

At that point, Qin Jiumo fully understood.

“With that in mind, let’s join forces to apply pressure.

We must ensure that Protector Xu can safely return to the country,” Li Fuqiang said thoughtfully, then resolutely added.

“Agreed!”

“Let’s do just that!”

Without any objections, Qin Jiumo and Jiang Taikuang stood up along with him, leaving the conference room.
