"The first person to stick their neck out has appeared." Mo Tianxing glanced at Fang Yan slightly, admiring the other's courage.
At least he, the Sect Master of the Black Emperor Sect, wouldn't dare to directly challenge the authority of a seventh-grade alchemist like this.
Logically speaking, Fang Yan, a nine-star Dou Emperor, shouldn't be so brave either. Perhaps the Demon Flame Valley behind him gave him considerable confidence.
After all, in the Black-Corner Region, Old Demon Di was a very senior expert.
A seven-star Dou Ancestor, already ranked as a high-level expert, far beyond what Mo Tianxing, a four-star Dou Ancestor who had just entered the mid-level, could contend with.
Han Feng looked at Fang Yan and nodded slightly.
"Great Elder Fang Yan is right. I think everyone here has the same doubts. Since that's the case, I'll be frank."
Han Feng's gaze calmly swept over everyone present.
"The chaos in the Black-Corner Region has lasted for too long."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone had a premonition in their hearts, and they all looked at the white figure in the main seat with shock.
Han Feng's voice continued.
"I intend to create an alliance to rebuild the Black-Corner Region."
"What do you all think?"
Han Feng's tone was calm, but it was like a thunderclap, shocking everyone.
The small leaders who were a bit arrogant before were now speechless.
Are you kidding? Han Feng wants to rule the Black-Corner Region. Is this something they can get involved in?
There are only two situations now: agree and surrender; or disagree and go to war!
Almost subconsciously, the eyes of the small leaders in the back turned to the few people at the front of the seats.
As the top experts of the Black-Corner Region, their attitude was the most important.
Mo Tianxing narrowed his eyes, clenching his fist under the table.
Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for a few years, he has developed such ambition!
Everyone present was waiting for Mo Tianxing and the others to give an answer.
But this sect master, who always played it safe, retreated again.
Mo Tianxing glanced at Fang Yan out of the corner of his eye, expecting this Great Elder to stick his neck out again.
However, Fang Yan hesitated this time.
Han Feng was a seventh-grade alchemist. If he really offended him completely, the consequences would not be something he, a Dou Emperor, could bear.
Fang Yan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly stood up and said, "Medicine Emperor, this matter is no small feat. Although I am the Great Elder of the Demon Flame Valley, I cannot make a decision for the Valley Master."
"Please allow me to go back and report, Medicine Emperor, and let the Valley Master decide."
This retreat to advance was truly brilliant. Fang Yan was secretly pleased.
Han Feng smiled and nodded.
"Granted."
Mo Tianxing's face instantly darkened.
This old thing is not stupid either!
Now, the eyes of the whole audience officially turned to him.
Besides the Demon Flame Valley, the Black Emperor Sect was the most powerful.
While Mo Tianxing was considering his words, Su Mei, the master of the Rakshasa Gate, suddenly stood up and bowed respectfully to Han Feng.
"Medicine Emperor, my Rakshasa Gate is willing to join the alliance and obey the Medicine Emperor's orders from now on!"
As an expert in the top ten of the Black Ranking, although the Rakshasa Gate was not as good as the Demon Flame Valley and the Black Emperor Sect, it was still a force not to be underestimated.
Su Mei's attitude directly caused the situation of this negotiation to tilt towards a subtle angle.
Han Feng nodded with satisfaction.
"Thank you for your cooperation, Gate Master Su."
With Su Mei taking the lead, some forces that were already close to Feng City also stood up to express their attitude, willing to join the alliance.
Mo Tianxing immediately couldn't sit still.
This couldn't go on. If the momentum of the alliance was formed, it would be difficult to stop it. Someone had to stand up and oppose it.
Mo Tianxing immediately swept his gaze towards a leader of a subsidiary force of the Black Emperor Sect, the meaning in his eyes couldn't be clearer.
You, take the blame for me!
The chosen small leader's scalp went numb.
Truly, a disaster falling from the sky!
When gods fight, mortals suffer.
The small leader stood up tremblingly.
"I object!"
He gritted his teeth and said this sentence.
Everyone looked at this unlucky guy, their eyes filled with both curiosity and sympathy. Offending the Medicine Emperor, they didn't know what his end would be.
However, Han Feng just looked at this small leader and nodded, "It doesn't matter. Everyone has their own ideas. Whether you want to join or not is up to you. I won't force you."
He raised his wine glass and toasted the small leader from afar.
"No need to be nervous. Sit down."
The small leader was greatly moved and hurriedly raised his glass in return.
Han Feng's gentle attitude confused Mo Tianxing.
How is this possible! It's just over like that?
Soon, the leaders in the venue made their decisions.
Most people said they would go back and think about it carefully.
Only a small portion chose to join the alliance.
As for those who publicly opposed, there was still only that first old brother.
Who knows if this is Han Feng's trap? Being polite to your face, and then dealing with you in private.
After everyone made their decision, Han Feng smiled and raised his glass, said a few concluding words, and the banquet ended successfully.
After the dispersal, the leaders who said they would go back and consider left the city overnight, afraid that Han Feng would attack them secretly.
Mo Tianxing didn't dare to get close to Han Feng either. After leaving the city in a carriage, he pondered Han Feng's actions today.
He always felt something was wrong.
Han Feng's attitude was too casual and too gentle. It seemed that establishing an alliance was not a big deal to him, but a trivial matter accomplished casually.
Where did his confidence come from?
Could it be that he had befriended many Central Plains experts over the years, so he dared to be so aggressive?
Mo Tianxing thought about various possible reasons.
The only thing he didn't expect was that the reason Han Feng was so indifferent was that his strength already surpassed the entire Black-Corner Region.
City Lord's Mansion.
The Maple Forest Guard announced one by one, bringing the leaders who were willing to join the alliance to another hall to gather.
Han Feng was already waiting there. After greeting everyone to take their seats, he said, "I am very grateful for everyone's trust in me. If not for everyone giving me face today, this alliance would have become a joke."
"Medicine Emperor, you are too polite. We have all received favors from Feng City more or less over the years. If the Medicine Emperor forms an alliance, I am definitely willing to join!"
"Me too!"
"Same here!"
Han Feng smiled and nodded.
"Since everyone is so enthusiastic, I'll get straight to the point."
"Let me say the ugly words first. My formation of an alliance is not empty talk. In addition to strengthening contact and exchanging needs, some rules must be established."
"If you have any shady business or uncontrollable subordinates in private, deal with them as soon as possible. If I find out after the alliance is truly settled, I will investigate and deal with it according to the alliance regulations."
Speaking of this, Han Feng's tone was a bit serious.
Everyone's heart shivered, and they nodded in agreement.
They were all experts who had fought their way out of the Black-Corner Region, more murderous than cultivators in the orderly camp.
Laws and regulations were somewhat laughable to them.
But at this point, not nodding wasn't an option!
They could only deal with it for now.
Han Feng's gaze swept over everyone.
Under the Profound Meaning of the Fallen Heart Flame
Which people decided to take it seriously, which people treated what was just said as a deaf ear, which people began to resent Han Feng...
Han Feng knew it all clearly.
As expected of the Black-Corner Region, the people raised here are very unique...
Han Feng smiled lightly.
Forget it, let's see in a few days.
Han Feng distributed some small gifts to these people, and then left the venue.
Inside the City Lord's Mansion office.
Han Beng handed two sorted lists to Han Feng.
One was the people who didn't agree today.
One was the people who agreed today.
Han Feng picked up the list of people who agreed to the alliance and circled a few names on it.
"Pass down the order. Keep a close eye on these people."
Han Feng returned the two lists to Han Beng.
"Yes!"
Han Beng accepted the order and quickly disappeared into the night.
Tonight's night was exceptionally beautiful.
However, many people in the Black-Corner Region had no time to appreciate it.
Although Han Feng didn't make a move on them tonight, the intention expressed was already shocking enough.
Unknowingly, Feng City, this neutral force, had already achieved the climate of a "hegemon."
Han Feng came to the top of the bamboo building, looking at the moon hanging high in the night sky.
It was past midnight.
"Jin Xi."
"Here."
The golden-haired girl awakened from [Extreme Lion] and transformed into human form.
"Go to the Demon Flame Valley and reason with them."
Han Feng handed a map of the Black-Corner Region to Jin Xi.
Jin Xi opened it and looked at it, a golden light flashing in her eyes.
"Order received."
————————————
Trends come and go, morning ends and evening arrives.
Many things often undergo earth-shaking changes overnight.
Early the next morning, outside Feng City, a large army from the Demon Flame Valley knelt on the ground, begging for Han Feng's forgiveness.
The spectacular scene scared the merchants who were leaving the city early in the morning into fleeing back.
It was simply unimaginable. As soon as dawn broke and the city gate opened, a dark mass of people was seen kneeling in front.
"My lord, the task you assigned has been completed."
Jin Xi came to report.
Han Feng stood on the city wall, looking at the crowd below, his eyes a bit confused.
There is a saying that goes well: a mature subordinate will understand the meaning of their superior on their own.
"You did very well."
Han Feng praised.
The corners of Jin Xi's mouth curved slightly. She transformed back into a golden saber and flew into Han Feng's body.
"By the way, my lord, this is the treasure I looted from the Demon Flame Valley."
Jin Xi suddenly reminded him from his soul sea.
A fluctuation was transmitted from the void. Han Feng reached out and took it, discovering that it was a different space hiding a large amount of treasure resources.
This was a small trick mastered by Dou Venerate experts, which could temporarily store a large amount of supplies.
After Han Feng took over the space, he didn't check it on the spot.
The urgent task was how to deal with this group of people below.
In the crowd, Old Demon Di knelt at the very front, feeling incomparably humiliated.
But he had no choice. In front of that woman, he was beaten like a dog, and no moves were useful.
That was a Dou Venerate!
An existence that could crush everything about him just by realm.
With such a person in Feng City, what else could he, Old Demon Di, do besides surrender?
Yesterday, Great Elder Fang Yan, who was eating, drinking, and having fun in Feng City, was trembling all over at this moment, not daring to let out a fart.
How could he have thought that disaster would come so quickly!
He had just arrived at the Demon Flame Valley when he was captured.
That golden-haired woman forced him to reveal the location of the Valley Master. He was "unyielding" and prepared to struggle, but the other party started hacking at the mountain without saying a word, directly flattening the peak outside the Demon Flame Valley.
Too terrifying...
If he had known earlier that Feng City was so powerful, Fang Yan would definitely have been the first to be Han Feng's lackey.
The absolutely loyal kind!
The person on the city wall didn't speak for a long time, and the people of the Demon Flame Valley knelt honestly.
Suddenly, Fang Yan felt a flame in his heart, burning his blood vessels and making them expand.
Old Demon Di felt the same. Looking around, he found that the people of the Demon Flame Valley all had similar feelings.
Finally, at this time, above the city wall, Han Feng spoke.
He raised his arm, seeming to be manipulating something.
"Don't worry. This is a power that acts on the mind. It won't take your lives so quickly."
Hearing this, the bodies of the Demon Flame Valley people tightened.
Won't take your lives so quickly?
Does that mean it will kill them eventually!
"Since you have chosen to surrender, there must be some means of control. You should understand, right?"
The people of the Demon Flame Valley remained silent.
Han Feng continued to speak to himself, "I will have someone send you to a place later. If you want to live, complete the task well."
"When the task is over, I will return your freedom."
The Northwest Sea Region at the border of the Northwest Continent was full of messy gangs and hidden dangers. Han Feng couldn't reach it, so sending the people of the Demon Flame Valley there was just right.
They were all evil forces, so there was no need to have any scruples.
Someone in the Demon Flame Valley raised their head tremblingly and looked at Han Feng on the city wall.
The white figure stood on the wall, imposing, calm, and elegant. He didn't look like a person from the Black-Corner Region, but more like a young master from a famous family.
But such a person had destroyed the Demon Flame Valley overnight.
And decided their future fate in a few words.
He was the real Shura of the Black-Corner Region!
Regarding Han Feng's order, everyone dared not disobey. The scorching flame in their hearts seemed to be able to kill them at any time.
Soon, the people of the Demon Flame Valley were sent away.
During the period, Old Demon Di didn't even have the chance to talk to Han Feng.
A dignified veteran expert of the Black-Corner Region, a figure of the same era as the headmaster of Jia Nan Academy.
Completely became a thing of the past.
The news gradually spread.
Mo Tianxing was the first to rush to Feng City. His smiling face was full of flattery, saying that he had thought about it carefully after going back yesterday and felt that the Black-Corner Region should indeed be integrated.
For the whole of the next day.
Factions from all sides in the Black-Corner Region rushed to Feng City, expressing their willingness to join the alliance and be loyal to the Medicine Emperor.
The leaders who had originally agreed to the alliance yesterday felt extremely fortunate. Those who had listened to Han Feng's rules later and harbored mockery in their hearts dared not act perfunctorily anymore, and began to manage the security in the city according to Han Feng's requirements.
That night, in the reception hall of Feng City, the same people as yesterday were welcomed again.
Only the Demon Flame Valley was missing.
Han Feng sat in the chief seat, looking at the crowd below with a smile.
"Everyone, we meet again."
Everyone quickly smiled apologetically, but they couldn't smile at all in their hearts.
At this moment, in their eyes, Han Feng's smiling face was not kind at all, but like a Shura stepping on millions of corpses, looking at the world jokingly.
"You don't have to be nervous."
Han Feng laughed.
"What happened to the Demon Flame Valley yesterday was just an accident."
Hearing this, everyone's hearts trembled.
They understood now! This was Han Feng's warning!
"Regarding the alliance, everyone can do as they please. Those who do not wish to join can leave voluntarily. Feng City will pay you a considerable compensation."
Han Feng said seriously.
He was telling the truth.
However, no one present dared to believe it.
Because they firmly believed.
The kinder Han Feng appeared on the surface, the more dangerous his thoughts were.
Today's discussion went very smoothly and passed unanimously.
And among the people of the Black-Corner Region, Han Feng also gained a resounding nickname.
White Shura.
