Feng City.
This city located in the center of the Black-Corner Region was bustling with noise and crowded with visitors at this moment.
The triennial Black-Corner Region Alchemist Conference was held again today.
This tradition, which originated from Han Feng, has continued to this day.
However, the owner of this city had completely forgotten about it.
"Oh, the city is very lively today."
In front of the huge city gate, two men stood upright.
"Alchemist Conference?"
Han Feng realized in his heart.
So today is the Alchemist Conference of the Black-Corner Region.
He, the City Lord, actually didn't pay attention to it at all.
"Hehe, looking at you, you really are a hands-off shopkeeper."
Yao Chen smiled and walked towards the city gate.
"Let's go and see what outstanding alchemists are in this Alchemist Conference of your Black-Corner Region."
Han Feng shook his head amusingly.
Today is really a coincidence.
The two entered the city and slowly appreciated the cultural scenery along the street.
"The current Black-Corner Region is much more peaceful than when I came back then."
Yao Chen looked at the sincere smiles on people's faces and lamented.
Hearing this, Han Feng was moved.
Whether in his previous life or this life.
He was once an orphan about to die in the Black-Corner Region.
It was Yao Chen who happened to pass by that year, adopted the helpless Han Feng, and took him to the Falling Star Pavilion.
The fate of the two was born from this.
"The chaos in the Black-Corner Region stems from people's disregard for the law and indulgence in power."
Han Feng said.
"As long as a strong person stands up and calms down this bad ethos, the chaos can be quickly stopped."
Yao Chen nodded.
Although this move contains elements of violence, the Dou Qi Continent is like this; power is the root that determines everything.
It's just that benevolent and wise strong people will choose to restrain power instead of letting it run wild.
Governing with law and majesty, adding benevolence and tolerance.
Force, after all, is just a last resort.
"Speaking of which, this is also your hometown. It's really good that you have transformed it into a place where people live and work in peace and contentment."
Walking all the way, Yao Chen saw a lot with his own eyes and knew that this harmonious scene was not fake fabrication, but people's joy from the heart.
Han Feng laughed, "Actually, I didn't do much. I just restrained those who wanted to make trouble, and then handed over the power to the people here."
Hearing this, the corners of Yao Chen's mouth curled up.
The Han Feng in front of him is the outstanding disciple of his dreams.
The two came to the venue of the Alchemist Conference. Inside the venue, a group of young alchemists were taking the exam.
Yao Chen and Han Feng looked around and found that there wasn't even an empty seat; it was packed.
So, the two just stood and watched.
The qualifications of the participants in this year's Alchemist Conference have improved compared to previous sessions.
At least 50% of them are third-grade alchemists, which shows that the basic quality of the alchemy world in the Black-Corner Region is improving.
Although there is still a big gap compared to the Alchemist Conference of the Pill Tower, it is already a very good event in the Northwest Continent.
According to the costumes of the participants, it can be seen that the distant Heavenly Serpent Empire and Lion Nether Empire have sent people over.
They are undoubtedly young alchemists of the fourth-grade rank, with outstanding talent, representing their countries in the competition.
"Why didn't Little Yan come to participate this year?"
Yao Chen asked.
Han Feng, the hands-off shopkeeper, really couldn't answer this question.
"Not sure. Jia Nan Academy also sent people this time. logically speaking, Little Junior Brother could be selected. Maybe the Three-Year Agreement is approaching, and he doesn't want to focus on other things."
Han Feng said.
If Xiao Yan participated, there was still a good chance of competing for the championship.
But even if he won, the reward would not have any inevitable effect on Xiao Yan.
After all, the owner of this city is his Senior Brother.
And the famous Venerate Yao on the continent, now Saint Yao, is his teacher.
After watching today's Alchemist Conference, Han Feng took Yao Chen to live in the bamboo forest building.
Today's conference was very exciting, allowing Yao Chen to see the progress of the alchemy level in the Black-Corner Region.
Perhaps in the future, the alchemy level here will continue to improve.
If Han Feng's reputation resounds throughout the continent, the Black-Corner Region will usher in new development.
At night.
Fenglin Guards came to the bamboo forest building and asked Han Feng if he wanted to host the top ten finals of the Alchemist Conference tomorrow.
"No need. Don't publicize my return. Just proceed as usual."
Han Feng said.
"Yes."
Taking advantage of the night, Han Feng went to the Feng City dungeon and visited the Gold and Silver Elders.
Although it was imprisonment, the environment in the dungeon was still good.
Forced by helplessness, the Gold and Silver Elders could only bury their heads in cultivation. After so many years, their strength had improved a lot, reaching the level of five-star Dou Ancestor.
After using the combination secret technique, their combat power would be further improved.
"City Lord!"
"You finally came!"
Seeing Han Feng, the Gold and Silver Elders shouted excitedly.
"We know we were wrong. Next time we will never dare to violate your decision. Let us out!"
Han Feng smiled slightly and sent them two storage rings.
"Inside are new cultivation resources, enough for you to use for another few years."
Saying that, Dou Qi in his hands shook slightly, and the cage formation here deepened again.
The Gold and Silver Elders were instantly disheartened.
It's over now, completely unable to get out.
If they cultivated hard before, broke through to six-star Dou Ancestor, and combined to reach the combat power of high-level Dou Ancestor, there was a chance to break through the formation.
But now the formation was consolidated by Han Feng. Unless they both broke through to high-level Dou Ancestor, otherwise, escaping was definitely hopeless.
Seeing the low morale of the two, Han Feng comforted: "Don't worry, when the time comes, I will let you out. Cultivate well during this time. Look, isn't the progress great?"
The Gold and Silver Elders were heartbroken, but their dead hearts were ignited by Han Feng again.
"City Lord, when exactly can you let us out!"
"Soon, very soon."
Towards these two old men of the Black-Corner Region who once helped him defend Feng City, Han Feng still held a tolerant mind.
When things settle down, let them out to see the great rivers and mountains of the Black-Corner Region.
While Han Feng visited the Gold and Silver Elders, Yao Chen wandered alone in the bamboo forest.
He came to a grave and stopped in silence.
[Grave of Mentor Yao Chen]
"This kid..."
Yao Chen sighed softly.
Obviously he came back to life, why is this tombstone still standing?
However, he didn't care much, just looked at the grave a few more times, feeling inexplicably aggrieved in his heart.
Early the next morning.
The master and disciple returned to Jia Nan Academy.
Feng City has been visited, the academy has been visited, it's time to go to the Jia Ma Empire.
If there is time, they can also stay at the Xiao family for a few days.
Han Feng came to Xiao Yan's residence and notified his Junior Brother that they could set off.
"Ready to go?"
Xiao Yu was excited, while Xiao Yan beside her was very calm.
Han Feng looked at Xiao Yu's appearance. Previously, Teacher gave her an Ice Muscle Jade Bone Pill. It seems this girl couldn't wait to take it.
The effect was very good, raising Xiao Yu's appearance by a level.
Already a beauty, now she is more beautiful than before.
Especially those round thighs, full and elastic. Tsk tsk, Little Junior Brother living in the same room with such a beauty can still maintain his integrity.
Wasn't this kid a little pervert when he was young?
Han Feng thought to himself.
"Senior Brother, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Nothing, just remembered some past things."
Han Feng smiled.
Xiao Yan shivered, always feeling that Senior Brother's eyes had some deep meaning.
"Alright, let's go. We also have to go to the Outer Academy to pick up your family members."
Han Feng took the two to an open space.
Yao Chen had been waiting here for a long time. He debugged the flying treasure ship, then personally piloted it and flew to the Outer Academy.
"This flying treasure ship is much more convenient than the one your Uncle-Master uses. I didn't expect you to become a powerful weapon refiner."
Yao Chen exclaimed.
No one mentioned this to him before.
Really.
"Different paths lead to the same goal. It just happened by chance that I got the inheritance of a Half-Saint mighty figure."
Han Feng explained.
"The Void God Stele in my hand comes from that Half-Saint."
Hearing this, Yao Chen's expression moved slightly.
He suspected before that Han Feng should have been cultivated by a mighty figure to change from the villain who stabbed his teacher in the back to the respectful appearance now.
Could it be that this Half-Saint mighty figure enlightened Feng'er?
With such thoughts in mind, Yao Chen did not verify immediately, but buried this clue in his heart.
He was really curious about how Han Feng underwent such a huge change.
Asking directly felt inappropriate, so better to find out slowly by himself.
To be honest, Yao Chen is increasingly unwilling to recall that sad past now.
Because in this way, he can numb himself and treat the Han Feng in front of him as a true direct disciple, while the previous one was not.
People always have to look forward and not be too obsessed with the past.
Yao Chen drove the treasure ship refined by Han Feng, reluctant to let go for a while, driving more and more enjoyable.
"Teacher, it's this way, you went wrong."
Han Feng pointed the direction helplessly.
Due to Yao Chen's super-fast speed blessing, the airship often overshot, so Han Feng could only constantly change the direction guidance.
Finally, after half an hour, the airship arrived at the Outer Academy.
"Little Junior Brother, you go gather the Xiao family disciples. Teacher and I have something to do."
Xiao Yan nodded and walked off the airship with Xiao Yu.
Yao Chen wondered: "What else needs to be done?"
"Go to the Scripture Pavilion to have a look. There are two seniors there. Every time I pass by the Outer Academy, I have to visit them. It's a habit."
Han Feng said.
Back then, the Thousand and Hundred Elders went into seclusion to break through to Dou Venerate. Don't know if they succeeded now.
Han Feng and Yao Chen flickered and quickly disappeared on the road.
"This is it."
Han Feng came to the spatial door of the Scripture Pavilion and knocked lightly.
Spatial fluctuations transmitted, and someone responded quickly inside.
"Is it Elder Han?"
"It's me."
As the voice fell, the spatial door opened.
The Thousand and Hundred Elders walked out from inside, their Dou Qi steady and powerful.
"You're finally back."
"Yo, this is..."
The Thousand and Hundred Elders saw another person standing beside Han Feng, with extraordinary bearing, obviously not ordinary.
"This is my teacher, Venerate Yao. You two should have heard of him, right?"
"What!"
"Venerate Yao!"
The Thousand and Hundred Elders were shocked.
They looked Yao Chen up and down, seemingly unable to believe that such a young and handsome man would be the legendary Venerate Yao.
After the shock, the two quickly bowed and saluted.
"Qian Mu!"
"Bai Lie!"
"Greetings to Venerate Yao!"
Yao Chen raised his hand kindly and helped the two up.
"You two are also Dou Venerate experts now, no need for this."
"Who doesn't know the name of Venerate Yao?"
The Thousand and Hundred Elders said solemnly.
"Proper etiquette is still necessary."
Back then, Han Feng borrowed the name of Venerate Yao to win the negotiation opportunity among many righteous forces.
A person's name, a tree's shadow.
Having a resounding reputation on this Dou Qi Continent is indeed much more convenient.
This is why so many experts rush to participate in various authoritative competitions, such as the Four Pavilions Grand Competition and the Pill Tower Pill Gathering.
Just want to make a name.
At this time, Han Feng stood up and smiled at the Thousand and Hundred Elders: "Congratulations to the two elders for successfully breaking through to Dou Venerate. What did I say back then? You two definitely have no problem."
Hearing this, the Thousand and Hundred Elders also laughed: "Thanks to Elder Han's encouragement, otherwise we wouldn't have made up our minds so easily."
After all, breaking through to Dou Venerate is a major threshold, definitely not something that can be successful easily.
Choosing to break through, the Thousand and Hundred Elders were also under great pressure.
Fortunately, both succeeded in the end.
The four chatted for a while. Seeing the time was about right, Han Feng bid farewell.
"Visiting today just to see the two of you. Teacher and I have other things to do later, so we won't stay long."
"Okay, we two are always in the Scripture Pavilion. If Elder Han and Venerate Yao have time in the future, you can come to find us at any time."
Leaving the Scripture Pavilion, Yao Chen said with interest: "Mang Tianchi has some elegance. This Scripture Pavilion is quite mysterious."
Hiding treasures in multiple spaces, then swimming in the Scripture Pavilion.
This idea is good.
Yao Chen thought, maybe he can learn from it in the Falling Star Pavilion later.
Returning to the open space, Xiao Yan and Xiao Yu had already arrived with the Xiao family clansmen.
"Elder Han!"
"It's Elder Han!"
Seeing Han Feng, the Xiao family disciples exclaimed one after another.
Han Feng smiled slightly at everyone and reached out to summon the airship ladder for everyone to board.
"Don't be dazed, get on the ship quickly!"
The group quickly got on the deck.
Han Feng didn't let Yao Chen take over the driving core this time, but drove the treasure ship personally and began to prepare for acceleration.
After his modification, this flying treasure ship possessed the spatial shuttle ability that only Dou Venerate level experts had.
Through the predetermined spatial anchor point, it would take less than half a day to reach the Jia Ma Empire.
"Everyone sit tight!"
Han Feng shouted loudly.
A ball of rich spatial power condensed at the bow, and the surrounding space continuously compressed along the ship's body.
After about eight or nine seconds, the spatial power compressed to the extreme, and a void light wave shot forward fiercely, hitting the air, quickly rippling circles of spatial ripples.
"Three, two, one!"
Han Feng pushed forward, and the flying treasure ship quickly escaped into space. The huge ship flashed and disappeared in the Outer Academy.
