Collapse Iron: The Five Heroes of the Clouds Won't Let Me Go

Three days have passed since the sudden chaos was completely quelled.

The “Sudden Chaos” is the name given to this crisis and is recorded in the history of the Immortal Ship.

The initial general direction of the Immortal Boat Alliance was correct, so it will continue to be used.

Various messages and supplies of concern were sent to Luofu and Zhuming like snowflakes, and the marshal also highly praised Luofu's heroic performance.

After receiving public recognition and publicity, Cheng Xiao voluntarily withdrew from the limelight.

Almost everyone in the Immortal Boat Alliance knew of Cheng Xiao's existence, and even his photos had spread far and wide.

Cheng Xiao was not interested in high-ranking positions and generous salaries, and declined them all, nor did he want to make any leadership-style speeches.

After understanding his thoughts, the Immortal Boat Alliance prevented Cheng Xiao from showing his face in public; it was better to keep his trump card hidden.

Of course, the tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease; Cheng Xiao's very existence destined his ordinary daily life to be gone forever.

Other forces in the universe did not disturb him, nor did they deliberately point out their curiosity about Cheng Xiao. Instead, various cooperative projects with the Immortal Boat Alliance, especially Luo Fu, followed one after another.

Although it's obvious to everyone that the real intention is not what it seems, who wouldn't like a win-win situation?

What troubled Cheng Xiao was that now when he went to the market to buy groceries, countless people were secretly watching him, and people from the Immortal Boat also surrounded him to ask for his fortune.

The number of people from outside the country applying to settle in Luofu suddenly increased, all seeking Cheng Xiao's protection.

Many women tried to take advantage of the chaos to get close to each other, but Jingliu and Danfeng rejected them all.

"Get out of my sight! Anyone who dares to approach Cheng Xiao will face my wrath!"

Danfeng unleashed the dragon's might, and the crowd immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

However, most people were still unwilling to go far away, looking at Cheng Xiao with awe.

The people of Xianzhou were quite sensible. Since Mr. Chengxiao didn't like being disturbed, they simply observed from afar without disrespecting him, showing him respect.

Only the outsiders, driven by excessive curiosity about this legendary strongman, recklessly approached and disturbed him.

Often at such times, a Cloud Cavalryman would jump out from a manhole cover, street lamp, or even a trash can and drive away the ignorant outsiders.

Three days of adaptation allowed Cheng Xiao to recover, and also allowed Xianzhou to reap substantial profits.

The locals of Xianzhou have now suppressed their fervor for Cheng Xiao, while only the outsiders who keep pouring into Luofu are still unaware of their social status.

There was nothing they could do; Cheng Xiao was too approachable, with almost no airs or the arrogance of a powerful person.

General Teng Xiao has retired.

He was finally able to go fishing with his old friend, Wangxu.

In this sudden chaos, Jingyuan gained the approval of the Divine Lord through his own will and obtained the power to temporarily summon the Divine Lord.

Teng Xiao was overjoyed after the battle; this was the chosen successor to the general!

Anyway, he almost risked his life to save Luofu, so it's time for him to retire.

It should be noted that the generals of the Immortal Boat usually retire in battle or when the evil spirits are about to descend; there are virtually no cases of them retiring peacefully.

If we don't run away now, when will we?

Jing Yuan underwent three inauguration ceremonies within these three days:

[Heavenly Rainbow Conferment]: Internal recommendation and promotion within the Immortal Ship.

[The Emperor Bow lowers its gaze]: Consciousness enters the realm of the Dharma realm to receive the Emperor Bow's "Nine Arrows of Heavenly Thunder," which is a trial of life and death, and also a tribulation.

[Bestowed Powerful Spirit]: The Emperor's Bow condenses the power of the messenger into a personal powerful spirit for the recipient to command.

When Jing Yuan successfully passed the trial by sweeping away evil spirits and protecting his uncle and family, Teng Xiao laughed and introduced the golden spirit.

"This is the [Heavenly Lord of the Divine Firmament Thunder Palace, who drives thunder and lightning, chases demons and sweeps away filth]. I usually just call him [Divine Lord]. This is probably the first time you've heard his name before. I can't help it, it's just too tongue-twisting."

Jing Yuan smirked, "Isn't there a name-changing function? It would be so embarrassing to introduce myself to people using this name!"

"Jingyuan, you've got some nerve. This is the divine power bestowed upon us by the Emperor's Bow; how dare you decide its name?"

"Yes, yes, it's a really good name that's both profound and easy to pronounce."

Jing Yuan read aloud with a blank expression, praising the book.

However, aside from the name, Jing Yuan was very satisfied with the god's handsomeness and power.

During the handover ceremony, Cheng Xiao and Jing Liu happily clapped their hands on the sidelines.

Teng Xiao warned:

"The title of Immortal Boat General is temporary, and the power of the bestowed command does not belong entirely to you; it is only temporarily under your command."

"Do not let this sudden surge of power cloud your judgment. Inheriting the power of the Spirit grants you both the authority and the heavy responsibilities of a general."

In formal settings, Jing Yuan also maintained a serious expression: "I will keep this in mind and will certainly live up to your trust!"

The general's insignia was handed to Jing Yuan, who officially became the new Heavenly General of Luofu.

Danfeng teased, "I thought Jingyuan would never be able to beat me, but who would have thought he'd become a general? Next time we spar, you won't have to call on the Divine Lord to bully people again, will you?"

Bai Heng: "Sigh~ I thought Jing Liu, who has the strongest martial arts, would become a general, but it turns out that Jing Yuan has taken the position."

Bai Heng whispered in Jing Yuan's ear, "From now on, you'll be in charge of handling my speeding tickets. Don't forget your sisters now that you're a general!"

Jing Yuan rolled his eyes at the fox girl and walked gracefully to the group of disciples.

"Master, Grandmaster, Uncle-Master, Jingyuan has lived up to your expectations! I will certainly fulfill my mission of the hunt!"

Yao Feng wiped away her tears. Her disciples were truly a diverse and outstanding group: Sword Master's disciple, General's grand-disciple, and Chao Dagen's disciple and husband. She had no regrets in this life.

Jingliu smiled and said, "Jingyuan, you've done very well. You're already capable of handling things on your own. From today onwards, you've completed your apprenticeship. But remember, even as a general, you can't neglect your martial arts training."

Finally, Jing Yuan looked at Cheng Xiao with anticipation, hoping to hear his uncle's praise.

Cheng Xiao didn't hold back and patted Jing Yuan on the shoulder.

"Good job, he's grown up."

He didn't pat Jingyuan's head, because Jingyuan was a general, and he couldn't be treated like a child.

Although somewhat disappointed, Jingyuan already had a plan.

She was already a general, holding the highest power on the Immortal Ship. In Luofu, a general's power was limitless!

I cannot disobey the general, so I'll ask my martial uncle to come to my office... Hehehe~

Ying Xing felt somewhat disappointed. Her strength was at the bottom among the Five Heroes of the Clouds. When would she be able to turn things around?

Teng Xiao and Wang Xu put their arms around each other's shoulders and began discussing their plans for fun.

Only Huaiyan said sourly:

"Oh my, not only do you have a successor, but you've also retired beautifully. You must be really enjoying yourself."

"Hahaha, not at all, it's all thanks to Cheng Xiao. He promised me before that he would find a talent to succeed him as general, and I never expected it to be his own niece, Jing Yuan."

Teng Xiao sold Cheng Xiao on the spot, and Huai Yan was overjoyed when he found out.

"Not bad, not bad. Cheng Xiao's judgment is indeed unique. I'll go find him too."

Besides Jingyuan's appointment, there were two other things that troubled Chengxiao.
