The First Venerable of All Paths

"Young Master Fang Xuan, you will definitely save Miss, won't you?"

Little Bamboo looked at Fang Xuan with a hopeful expression, her eyes full of pleading.

"Okay, I promise."

Fang Xuan said, "You should rest well now. Only by getting your body back in good shape can you better rescue Sister Yutong."

The little bamboo is too weak.

She was not a martial artist to begin with, and her experiences during this period have greatly damaged her mental and physical health.

If it weren't for my unwavering determination, I probably wouldn't have been able to persevere until now.

Fang Xuan first used the power of the Chaos Origin to help Xiao Zhuzi stabilize her mind, and then gave her two pills to repair her mind and spirit.

After taking the medicine and having her tension eased, Xiao Zhuzi fell into a deep sleep again.

Feeling that Xiaozhu's breathing was steady, Fang Xuan was completely relieved.

Then, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

According to Xiaozhu's account, Sister Yutong was held accountable by the Dao Asking Sect because she fought with Su Yang and injured him.

"It seems that Su Yang has also gained some good fortune after going to the Dao Seeking Sect."

Back in Qingyang County, Su Yang's Qi Sea Dantian was destroyed by Fang Xuan, leaving him a cripple.

During the great war between the two races, Su Chongming saw that the situation was hopeless, so he took Su Yang and left for the Dao Seeking Sect.

"Given Su Qingyao's status in the Dao Seeking Sect, and her relationship with Zhao Qingcang, finding a spiritual pill to repair Su Yang's dantian is not a problem."

Although a martial artist's dantian is destroyed, making further cultivation impossible, this only applies to ordinary people.

It's not surprising that a top sect like the Dao Asking Sect, with its long-standing tradition, possesses such a heaven-defying elixir.

"Su Yang, Su Qingyao, Zhao Qingcang!"

Fang Xuan looked in the direction of the Dao Seeking Sect, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

"Just wait, we will settle these blood debts soon!"

Suppressing the distracting thoughts in his mind, Fang Xuan took another pill and continued to heal and restore his cultivation.

Although he successfully escaped into Sunset Wasteland, Sunset Town will certainly not let him off the hook.

Whether it's the Merchant Alliance or forces like the Xue family's Mad Lion, they will definitely launch an endless pursuit of him.

"Only with sufficient strength can I overcome this calamity and traverse the Sunset Wasteland."

While Fang Xuan was healing his injuries.

Inside a grand hall in Sunset Town, the atmosphere was incredibly oppressive.

The powerful aura emanating from the guards at the entrance made their legs tremble and their backs feel cold.

This is because, without exception, all the people in the main hall were experts at the Divine Intent Realm.

"What do you all think of my suggestion?"

Tang Xuan, seated at the head of the table, swept his gaze over the people below, his expression slightly forceful and cold.

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes flickered, but no one spoke first.

Everyone in Sunset Town knows about the great battle that took place three days ago.

The leader of the Vulture Gang has fallen, and three leaders of the Mad Lion Gang have also fallen.

Xue Wenhuan of the Xue family perished, and Han Yun also perished.

Even Xue Wanlong, an old monster who had cultivated for many years, was scared away.

If it weren't for the intervention of the Alliance Leader, Tang Xuan would have died on the spot, and wouldn't have had the chance to sit here and talk so eloquently.

While it seemed like a promise of great importance, including the position of vice leader of the business alliance, the people present were not fools.

How could I possibly offend a sword cultivator and a demon emperor for some material possessions?

Tang Xuan and his companions lost their lives or their reputations simply because they were greedy and coveted the valuable treasures on others.

"What? Are you all disrespecting me, or disrespecting the Merchant Alliance?"

Seeing that everyone was silent, Tang Xuan snorted coldly and looked at one of them.

"Patriarch Qiu, what do you have to say?"

Qiu Feng, who was called out by Tang Xuan on the spot, felt a pang of sadness in his heart. He then clasped his hands and said, "Master Tang, you flatter me. How could the Qiu family dare to disrespect the Business Alliance and Master Tang? It's just that I am but a nobody and dare not speak recklessly."

"I am of low status and my words carry little weight; I dare not speak recklessly?"

Tang Xuan scoffed and said, "Patriarch Qiu, I've heard that the thieves who caused trouble in my Sunset Town were brought to the market by your Qiu family. How do you explain that?"

In an instant, countless eyes turned to Qiu Feng.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Qiu Feng cursed Tang Xuan in his heart for being shameless, but on his face he put on a look of fear and trepidation.

"Master Tang, you are wise. My daughter does not know Fang Xuan at all; it was merely a normal business transaction."

Qiu Feng changed the subject, saying, "If Master Tang wants to shift all the blame onto my Qiu family based on this, how can we continue doing business in Sunset Town? Are we going to stop receiving customers altogether?"

"Hehe, Patriarch Qiu is quite the smooth talker."

Tang Xuan's eyes were gloomy as he said with a forced smile, "Even if this matter has nothing to do with your Qiu family, as a member of the Merchant Alliance, your Qiu family should still do its part to help when the Alliance's reputation is damaged."

Damaged reputation?

I bother!

Qiu Feng cursed inwardly, his contempt for Tang Xuan growing ever stronger.

That shameless old man, he was clearly greedy and treated people like easy prey, but in the end he lost everything.

Now they're putting on airs about reputation, it's utterly shameless!

But when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

If Qiu Feng dares to say "no," then after today, the Qiu family business will cease to exist in Sunset Town.

"Master Tang is right."

Qiu Feng chuckled and said, "Since it's our duty, my Qiu family is willing to contribute 50,000 spirit stones to recruit experts and annihilate the scoundrel Fang Xuan!"

Upon hearing this, everyone cursed Qiu Feng as an old fox in their hearts, and then they all spoke up.

"My Wu Family Trading Company is also willing to contribute 50,000 spirit stones!"

"My Sun family..."

Hearing these words, Tang Xuan was so angry he almost vomited blood.

These bastards, is that what I meant?

What I want is not spirit stones, but for you to send out powerful warriors to surround and kill Fang Xuan!

But Tang Xuan also knew that if he pushed too hard, it would inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the crowd.

Despite the fact that the Merchant Alliance is virtually the dominant force in Sunset Town, and is the most powerful force in the open, the Merchant Alliance is not a major player.

But without the support of these families, the business alliance is just an empty shell.

Tang Xuan had nowhere to vent his anger, so he looked at the beautiful woman in the red dress who hadn't spoken yet.

"Lady Bone, what do you say?"

Tang Xuan said in a deep voice, "You're not going to offer 50,000 spirit stones too, are you?"

This Lady Bone is the beautiful woman in the red dress who besieged Fang Xuan for three days and constructed a barrier with her divine soul.

He was also a powerful expert at the fourth level of the Divine Realm.

Lady Bone, who was about to speak, suddenly looked embarrassed.

"You old bastard, I have no grudge against Fang Xuan, do you expect me to kill him?"

"How about I offer 80,000 spirit stones?"

As soon as Lady Bone opened her mouth, Tang Xuan was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

"Lady Bone, don't forget, you also participated in the siege."

Tang Xuan, his face grim, reminded him, "If that little beast comes back with a vengeance, do you think he'll let you off the hook?"

"Master Tang is joking."

Lady Bone's expression changed, then she said with a forced smile, "Although I participated in the siege, it was just a misunderstanding. We'll explain it clearly later."

"An explanation? Easier said than done!"

Tang Xuan sneered, "Judging from that kid's style, he's definitely a vengeful person. If that day ever comes, how will you face yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Lady Bone hesitated.

This is exactly what she is most worried about.

Lady Bone regretted it more and more, wondering why she had provoked that evil star in the first place.

They gained nothing but trouble.

"Master Tang is right, but there is one thing I don't understand. Please enlighten me, Master Tang."

"explain."

Lady Bone took a deep breath and said, "Three days have passed, and we don't know where Fang Xuan has fled to. How can we possibly surround and kill him?"

Everyone turned to look at Tang Xuan.

This is exactly what they care about most.

"Lady Bone can rest assured about this."

Tang Xuan said, "Three days ago, I contacted several major mercenary groups, including Mad Lion, Azure Wolf, and Flying Eagle, and asked them to seal off Sunset Wasteland."

"Once you find Fang Xuan, immediately send us the message."

Tang Xuan's eyes flashed with murderous intent as he said, "Not only that, the Xue and Han families have also mobilized a large number of powerful individuals. Even if we have to turn Sunset Wasteland upside down, we will find that little beast and kill him!"

Everyone was shocked to hear this.

No wonder.

No wonder it took Tang Xuan three days to find them.

It turns out this was planned in advance.

The purpose of gathering them here today is simply to express an attitude and send a signal.

Those who disobey the Merchant Alliance's orders are going against the entire Sunset Town.

Lady Bone's eyes flickered, and she covered her mouth with a smile, saying, "In that case, I will do my utmost to eliminate this threat to my merchant alliance."

"Very well, Lady Bone is a master of the Soul Path. With your assistance, she will be even more powerful."

Tang Xuan slammed his hand on the table and looked at everyone again: "Everyone, you can speak freely now."

"My Wu Clan Trading Company will send ten more experts, in addition to the existing 80,000 spirit stones!"

"My Sun family..."

Tang Xuan looked at Qiu Feng and said with a smile, "Patriarch Qiu, what do you mean?"

"My Qiu family is also willing to send ten powerful experts!"

Hearing this, Tang Xuan smiled with satisfaction.

"very good!"

Tang Xuan stood up and said, "Everyone, there's no time to lose. Go and gather your strongest warriors. In half an hour, let's head together to Sunset Wasteland and kill Fang Xuan!"

"yes!"

......

"Commander of the Madfire Guild, are you really sure that no unfamiliar faces have entered Sunset Wasteland in the past few days?"

In the desolate wasteland at sunset, inside a rugged hall built on the mountainside, Xue Wanlong looked at the red-haired man at the head of the table and slowly spoke.

This man was extremely burly, with his chest and breasts exposed, giving him a very bold and unrestrained appearance.

Strangely, his hair was fiery red, like a burning flame.

His aura was intensely hot and volatile, like a volcano that could erupt at any moment.

"What does Elder Xue mean by this?"

Kuanghu glared at Xue Wanlong and said, "This Sunset Wasteland is so vast, how can my Kuangshi family alone defend all of it?"

"If Patriarch Xue had such ability, why would he need to seek help from me, Mad Lion?"

Sensing the dissatisfaction in Kuang Huo's words, Xue Wanlong's expression also turned somewhat unpleasant.

"Commander Madfire has misunderstood."

Xue Wanlong said, "I just feel that our two families are now allies, so the sooner we find Fang Xuan, the sooner we can deal with him!"

"There's no need for Elder Xue to remind me of that."

Madfire snarled, "That little bastard killed three of my brothers, how could I let him go!"

"In that case, why not ask the Grand Commander to take action personally?" His assistance would surely make things much easier.

"My elder brother is currently in seclusion; how could he possibly trouble himself with such a trivial matter?"

Kuang Huo sneered, "So what if he's a swordsman? So what if he has a Demon Emperor protecting him? Once he enters this Sunset Wasteland, I'll make sure he never leaves!"

"With Captain Kuang Huo's words, I can rest assured."

At the same time.

Many powerful figures entered the Sunset Wasteland together.

This also includes powerful mercenary groups such as the Azure Wolf and Flying Eagle.

They have only one goal:

Encircle and annihilate Fang Xuan!
