Starting with a useless yellow dog, he swept through the immortal realm.

"Hahahaha, Zhang Fan, Zhou Wei, have you two lost your minds?"

"You two, came to kill me?"

"Are you kidding me!"

Scarface seemed to look down on Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei, and suddenly burst into laughter. Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei, of course, had already anticipated this situation.

Scarface released his aura, which was clearly the pressure of a Mahayana Realm cultivator. However, this pressure was somewhat flashy but not substantial, as the energy within it was quite weak. Even so, it still made the brothers around Zhang Fan feel immense pressure.

The two were not in a hurry; they simply turned slightly to the side, and Fei Tianba stepped out.

Scarface only calmed down when he saw Baboon.

"Fei Tianba? What brings you here, you old bastard?"

"Scarface, I'm here to help your Black Fiend Sect get back on the right track."

"What does the business of our Black Fiend Sect have to do with your Yin Wind Stronghold?"

At this moment, Scarface stood up, no longer paying attention to the women beside him. Fei Tianba also released his own pressure, revealing his cultivation level as a mid-stage Mahayana cultivator.

When the two waves of pressure collided, Baboon Tianba was in no way weaker than Scarface.

"Really? We're allies. Brother Zhang and Brother Zhou both told me that you've done all sorts of evil deeds in the Black Fiend Sect."

Scarface sensed the powerful aura of Baboon, but he couldn't afford to lose face at this moment.

"Zhang Fan, Zhou Wei, you two traitors, what are you planning to do?"

Seeing that Scarface seemed a little anxious, Zhang Fan responded.

"Scarface, stop putting on that airs of a sect leader. Back then, the brothers respected you and were willing to let you be the sect leader, but what have you done all these years? Everyone knows very well, so I don't need to say it again."

After Zhang Fan finished speaking, the members of the Black Fiend Sect around him, who naturally knew Scarface's style over the years, all echoed his sentiments.

"Yes, Sect Master Dao, you should have stepped down long ago."

"The Black Fiend Sect is not your private domain. We should let more capable people rise to power."

"You've been harming and exploiting your brothers all day long; you've long since betrayed your principles."

Scarface turned ashen as he listened to the instructions given to him by the disciples around him. At this moment, Fei Tianba spoke up again.

"Scarface, you've seen it too. It seems the Black Fiend Sect brothers don't really approve of you anymore."

"Hmph, you want to take my life? We'll see if you have the ability."

Seeing that a battle was inevitable, Scarface secretly gave Dark Moon a look before summoning his ring-shaped greatsword.

As for Fei Tianba, he naturally summoned his spiked club, and the two of them clashed in the blink of an eye.

The powerful pressure of the battle instantly froze the surrounding air.

At this moment, Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei also rushed forward to help Fei Tianba.

Although Scarface is no match for Baboon Tianba in terms of current strength, the two of them are naturally afraid of any unexpected events since they have already come this far.

The arrival of Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei at this moment instantly put Scarface at a further disadvantage.

Meanwhile, Dark Moon took advantage of everyone's inattention and slipped away from the scene by climbing over the wall.

Zhang Fan naturally noticed Dark Moon's movements and gave instructions to Leopard Killer behind him.

"Go after them!"

Leopard Killer received the order and quickly caught up with Dark Moon.

The remaining disciples and members of Yinfeng Village subdued the three remaining female demon cultivators from the Second Hall and then surrounded the battlefield in the middle to prevent Scarface from escaping.

As for Dark Moon, who had escaped, she naturally went to the Second Hall to get reinforcements. Although Leopard Killer was skilled in assassination, his cultivation was lower than Dark Moon's, and he couldn't catch up with her. Dark Moon was still able to lead the Second Hall, the Fifth Hall, and some of the remaining people from the First Hall to the courtyard to support Scarface.

Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei had actually anticipated this, otherwise they wouldn't have sent the people from Yinfeng Village along with their two branches.

Soon, the reinforcements brought by Dark Moon clashed with the demonic cultivators.

However, the people of the Fifth Hall actually shared the same ideas as the Fourth and Sixth Halls, so they just went through the motions during the battle.

Even Qiu Cheng, the leader of the Fifth Hall, didn't contribute much; he simply stood aside with a few of the Fifth Hall's elite members, reading the letter.

Qiu Cheng was unaware of Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei's plan beforehand; otherwise, he would have been involved at least a little. Moreover, given the current situation, he could tell that Scarface was destined to lose.

Unless Lang Jie suddenly returns, which is impossible, Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei's plan is very well hidden, and Lang Jie wouldn't have the foresight to return.

Therefore, although Qiu Cheng was somewhat resentful that Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei did not take him along, he still made a move and, together with Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei and Fei Tianba, attacked Scarface.

"Master Qiu, we will definitely reward you handsomely after this is done!"

"Master Zhang, you should have taken me with you sooner. I've long disliked that old bastard Scarface."

"Qiu Cheng, are you going to betray us too?!"

At this moment, the only ones who were truly dedicated were the female demon cultivators of the Second Hall. After all, they had often bullied other disciples by relying on Scarface's favor. If Scarface fell, they would be the first to suffer.

However, the demonic cultivators in the second hall didn't have much fighting power, so not only was Scarface suppressed, but they were also suppressed.

Scarface was struggling to withstand the onslaught from the crowd, and in a moment of carelessness, he was killed by Baboon's blow.

After all, Scarface hadn't fought like this for many years, and his body was already exhausted, so this was somewhat reasonable.

With Scarface's death, the situation on the field was quickly brought under control. At this time, the disciples of the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Halls, together with the people of Yinfeng Village, had also taken control of the people of the Second and First Halls.

"Brothers of the First Hall, you all know Scarface's usual evil deeds. Although Wolf Hall Master is not here now, don't worry. When he returns, we will discuss it with him."

"It's time to get the Black Fiend Sect back on track. Brothers, if you give up the resistance now and join us, we'll still be brothers."

At this moment, Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei also tried to persuade the disciples in the hall to surrender. Soon, everyone in the hall accepted Zhang Fan's rule.

"As for us, the Second Hall, we are also willing to submit."

"Yes, yes, we'd like to too."

At this moment, the demonic cultivators of the Second Hall, led by Dark Moon, also began to prepare to surrender, but the other members of the Black Fiend Sect disagreed.

"Master Zhang, the Second Brother always flaunts his power because of Scarface, and they're all exhausted from the fierce battle just now. It's time to let the brothers relax a bit."

Zhang Fan waved his hand, "Just don't disrupt the meeting here."

Subsequently, many disciples dragged all the people from the Second Hall away. Tonight, all night long, the Black Fiend Sect was immersed in screams.

At this moment, Fei Tianba, who was in the courtyard, also took out a blood cup.

"Brother Zhang, here is what you asked for. You can handle the rest of the situation properly. In a while, the chieftain will come to discuss the division of the spoils with you."

"Thank you for your help, Chief Baboon."

"We're all brothers in the demonic path, it's normal for us to help each other."

Afterwards, Zhang Fan and Zhou Wei personally saw Fei Tianba off, and then Zhou Wei returned to the courtyard.

Although the scar has been removed, the two of them will still need to work together to reorganize the Black Fiend Sect.

At this moment, Zhang Fan placed the blood cup on Scarface's body, and then all of Scarface's cultivation power gathered in the blood cup.

A moment later, Zhang Fan drank all the blood in the blood cup, and instantly, his cultivation level soared to the early stage of the Mahayana Realm.

This is an evil artifact that Zhang Fan exchanged with the leader of Yinfeng Village for the great benefits of the Black Fiend Sect. It can absorb the cultivation of a recently deceased person and transfer it to himself in one go.

At the same time, the user must participate in the process of killing the person, and must be one of the people the person hated before their death.

However, after absorbing it for cultivation, one needs to comprehend the corresponding level of Daoist tradition as soon as possible, otherwise one's cultivation level will quickly drop. Furthermore, after using it, one's cultivation will be unable to advance any further for the rest of one's life.

After absorbing the essence, Zhou Wei protected Zhang Fan, who immediately began to comprehend the higher level of his cultivation...

After a night, Song Xun continued to travel around the imperial city with Jiang Wanfeng during the day. By evening, Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng returned to the office and, led by Wang Peng, went to the Fourth Prince's residence to participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

Upon arriving at the residence, a servant was already waiting for Song Xun and his companions at the gate. As soon as they arrived, the servant led them inside.

The Hundred Flowers Banquet was held in the backyard of the Fourth Prince's residence. The backyard had been carefully decorated by the servants of the residence, and a hundred flowers were in full bloom.

Although there were fewer than a hundred flowers if you counted them carefully, there were still dozens of varieties, and the scene was truly breathtaking.

Not only were there flowers decorating the surroundings, but a long table was also set up in the courtyard, laden with various pastries, fine wines, and delicious food.

Around the long table, numerous tables and chairs were arranged for the guests.

Many guests had already arrived, and although it hadn't officially started yet, the atmosphere was already great.

At this moment, the arrival of Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng prompted the Fourth Prince Changde to step forward to greet them.

"Miss Jiang, Peak Master Song, I have long admired your names. Meeting you today, you are indeed a young talent with extraordinary bearing."

"Your Highness is too kind. Thank you for inviting us."

"Don't be so formal. My name is Changde, and I'm a few years older than you. You can just call me Brother De. You're here today to give me face."

Then, the Fourth Prince Changde loudly introduced Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng to the surrounding guests.

Song Xun also spotted a familiar face among the guests.

It was him! Jiang Wanfeng noticed him at this moment as well.

Meanwhile, Zhong Li, who was sitting at the moment, also noticed Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng. He waved slightly to the two of them, and then stopped paying attention to them, simply drinking the wine in his hand.

For Zhong Li, today was a day to relax, and he didn't want to spoil the beautiful atmosphere. Besides, he was a procrastinator when it came to tasks.

Seeing that Zhongli meant no harm, Song Xun, though still wary, walked around with Jiang Wanfeng, admiring the various flowers.

The two came here not only to accompany Jiang Wanfeng to admire the flowers, but also to learn about the powerful and influential people in the capital. After all, the Hantian Dynasty is now on the verge of collapse, and Song Xun wanted to know what these powerful and influential people were doing.

The two were engrossed in admiring the flowers, but nobles from various imperial cities kept coming to greet them.

These powerful figures already wanted to befriend Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng, and now that Changde had set up this meeting, they were naturally very happy to oblige.

Just as the Hundred Flowers Banquet was about to officially begin, an important figure arrived.

Changde had already arrived at the gate of the prefecture to welcome them, while cursing under his breath.

Why did he actually come?

However, when the visitor arrived, Changde still greeted him with a smile.

"Brother, we've been waiting for you. You've finally done me the honor of coming."

The visitor was none other than Chang De's elder brother, the current Crown Prince, Chang Shen.

In the previous two years, when Changde held this Hundred Flowers Banquet, they would invite Chang Shen and other princes in a proper manner.

However, Chang Shen never came. This year, Changde invited Chang Shen as usual, but unexpectedly, Chang Shen came, which made Changde very uneasy.

After all, Changde holds this Hundred Flowers Banquet every year to expand its network of contacts and consolidate its power. Changde was naturally unhappy about Chang Shen's arrival.

"Fourth brother has invited me several times already. If I don't come soon, I'm afraid he'll be unhappy and blame me. Hahahaha."

"How could that be, Your Majesty? Your presence is an honor for me, and it brings great glory to my humble abode. If you hadn't come, I wouldn't have blamed you. Your Majesty is busy with state affairs and is the future of the dynasty, so you certainly can't spend much time playing with me."

Chang Shen looked at his good younger brother and smiled in response.
