Surviving in high-level martial arts and stacking Hextech

Chapter 105: Assembly Complete! Lord Lanyue!

Fang Ruo was shocked when Jiang Feng uttered the words that made her eyes widen.

"What do you mean... you've always been Liuli?" she asked, bewildered.

Jiang Feng didn't reply to her.

He abruptly cut off the conversation, as if stopping abruptly. Completely ignoring Fang Ruo, whose eyes were filled with increasing humiliation after being ignored, he turned and returned to his seat.

Then I started thinking.

A body of crystal should, in theory, have crystal-clear bones, but as it stands, the spiritual bones within him are merely stained with a few dark red hues. The reason for this is likely that he has not yet fully attained the body of purity.

hold on.

That's what he was thinking.

When the last genetic shackle is completely broken, that will be the day he truly steps into the Glazed Realm.

Suppressing his restlessness and anticipation, he closed his eyes.

He hasn't rested since entering the ruins.

I'm a little tired.

Four hours later.

Lan City, which originally required a day and a night to reach, was now within reach.

The starship emerged from the spatial turbulence and landed steadily in a place that Jiang Feng and the others had never seen before.

There were already many people waiting in front of them.

Among them were Wang Jingci, Qin De, Liu Sujun, and Chu Gonghua, all familiar to Jiang Feng. Fang Ruo's brother, Fang Xiao's father Fang Ming, was also there. Fang Ruo felt a slight disappointment that he was still standing there.

Among the crowd, the leader was a woman. She wore a light blue Taoist robe, had delicate skin, well-proportioned features, slightly high brow bones, long and narrow eyes, and a very shallow curve at the corner of her eyes.

Upon first meeting her, one would notice that her face always exuded a coldness that kept people at a distance. Unlike Fang Ruo's aloofness, it was more like the ice on a lake in early winter, thin and clear, not to be touched.

Jiang Feng guessed her identity in just one second.

The Lord of Lan City, Lan Yue.

As the only female Grandmaster on the entire Donglin Star, Lan Yue's legend is well-known even to Jiang Feng, who hardly ever surfs the internet.

In her youth, she participated in the "Battle of the Stars" in the Southern Star Region and lost to the current Chief Enforcement Officer of Tianyuan Star by a single move, winning second place.

She is also the leader of the "Cangming Sect," one of the strongest sects in the star field. It is said that the sect's leader, "Yuanzhu," personally invited her to serve on Tianyuan Star, but she refused.

Besides these, there are many, many more...

"I never expected to actually meet the city lord alive," Yuan Guannan said as he walked over.

Jiang Feng chuckled and patted him on the shoulder. "Let's go back."

Yuan Guannan glanced at him, his gaze deep, as if trying to etch his image into his mind. Of the three giants of the class, only he remained, and he couldn't help but feel a deep sadness.

"Fang Xiao is dead, Luo Feng is dead too, you... take care."

Jiang Feng chuckled.

"We will win."

Then, the two groups of people met up.

After nodding to the three principals present, Lord Lanyue allowed them to lead the students behind him to their respective tutors in batches before leaving.

About half an hour later, the room suddenly became empty.

Those who remained here were all those who participated in the operation to eradicate the Voodoo sect.

"Everyone, all the forces that Lan City can gather are present. We can begin our discussion now," Lan Yue said upon seeing that everyone had arrived.

To Jiang Feng's surprise, the voice that came from that cold face was actually so...sweet.

Yes, Lan Yue's voice was incredibly sweet, just like those live streamers with exaggerated voices he saw on short video apps in his previous life.

Perhaps sensing a certain gaze, Lan Yue looked at Jiang Feng, who was standing next to Xu Yuan.

The eyes of everyone behind her also shifted to her.

"I heard from Xu Yuan that a genius boy has emerged in my Lancheng. In just a few months, he has reached the peak of the Body Tempering Realm and won first place in the exhibition assessment. He has become famous in Donglin. So that's you."

Facing the grandmaster, Jiang Feng's heart skipped a beat, and he was about to bow in respect.

"No need for formalities." A pair of delicate hands gently supported him, and he gradually got used to that sweet voice. "Although I am the city lord, I was not born a grandmaster. With your talent, there is no need for formalities between us."

Upon saying this, she actually placed herself on an equal footing with Jiang Feng.

Everyone was surprised.

Jiang Feng was also surprised.

Looking up at Lan Yue, he saw that her expression was sincere and genuine.

He said respectfully, "Thank you, Lord City Lord."

Lan Yue smiled and nodded, shifting her gaze away from Jiang Feng.

This time, no sound came from my mind.

"It seems that this Lord Lanyue is not as strong as Lord Su."

Jiang Feng muttered to himself, withdrew the power of the causal mist, and stepped aside.

Seeing the important figures begin to converse, he looked around, somewhat puzzled, and then lowered his voice to ask Liu Sujun beside him, "Sister Liu, why do I see only people from Lancheng here this time? Aren't the other two cities sending anyone to help with this?"

Looking at the black-haired boy in front of her, Liu Sujun's eyes were full of admiration. She also lowered her voice and replied, "It's not that we don't want to send someone, it's that we dare not send someone."

"Don't dare?" Jiang Feng raised an eyebrow.

"The main target of the Dark Sea's erosion is no longer this dilapidated planet. So what do you think the protective shields outside the three cities of Donglin are protecting against? Aren't they protecting against those alien beasts outside the wasteland?"

Chu Gonghua interjected at some point, "Each of these three cities must have a Grandmaster-level expert stationed at its core to maintain the protective shield. Once the Grandmaster leaves the city, the shield will fail, and wouldn't the strange beasts from the wasteland just rush in?"

"Such a thing is true!"

Jiang Feng, who had been in this world for eighteen years, knew that strange beasts roamed the wasteland, but this was the first time he had learned that the maintenance of the protective shield was inseparable from the city lord.

"nonsense!"

Chu Gonghua lowered his voice, "Otherwise, what's the point of having a 'City Lord' position in the Southern Star Region? City Lord, City Lord, it sounds prestigious, but do you think that position is easy to hold?"

Jiang Feng added worriedly, "Without the help of the outer city, can we win? If the Holy Remains truly resurrects, won't the enemy camp have two Grandmasters?"

"Still nonsense!"

Chu Gonghua had long since abandoned his superior demeanor and regarded Jiang Feng as his colleague. "Of course we can't let that sacred remains revive, otherwise even if the city lord of Su City comes, we will be powerless to reverse the situation."

Liu Sujun added, "More than three hundred years ago, it was because that sacred remains had not yet been fully restored that the Lord of Yuncheng was able to win."

Hearing their conversation, Jiang Feng nodded gratefully and said no more.

He still had some doubts in his heart, such as how the sacred remains were formed and how they were delivered to the Star Marrow. But Liu Sujun and the others certainly had no way of knowing these things, so he didn't say anything.

While the three were talking, the discussion between Lan Yue, Wang Jingci, several heads of martial arts families, and three principals including Xu Yuan had also come to an end.

After everyone had finished getting ready, they headed in a large group towards the contaminated area.
