1987: C1987 Fish and Bear's Paw

C1987 Fish and Bear's Paw

The throne of the lord of the city was tempting to everyone.

Yao Feng wanted to find a suitable place to settle down, so he decided to go to the Challenger League.

After going through all kinds of channels to collect information.

They had gathered all the raw materials in the prescription and successfully brewed the medicine, which was exactly the same as the one they had used before.

They wanted to find a martial artist with a particularly strong cultivation base, control his mind and consciousness, and soak them in the medicine.

They wanted to become obedient puppets and win the victory of the competition.

"The most powerful martial artists are the Elders and disciples of the sects."

"They are extremely famous in the martial arts world. Even if they are caught, they won't be able to show their true identities."

"How about we go to other spaces to look for our targets?"

"It's getting cold. We don't have the time to go to such a far place."

After thinking about it for a while, there seemed to be only two options left.

The first was to attack the Senluo Prison and save a few powerful criminals.

Make them change their appearance and change their identity, and return to the martial arts world to participate in the competition.

The second would be to return to the Sacred Ruins and find some half-dead ancient experts to save them so that they could become one of their own.

No matter what method was used, the risk involved was extremely high.

"The Senluo Prison is at least ten to twenty thousand kilometers away from the edge of the Western Extreme Happiness Zone."

"I've never heard of any prisoners leaving the prison alive."

"All the martial arts sects have chosen their top experts to form guards to watch over the prison; it's even more dangerous than a dragon's pool or a tiger's den."

"The situation in the Holy Ruins isn't any better either."

"Don't forget the location. It's right below the Sacred Zone, and the Divine Might Sect has set up a defensive array around it."

"The reason why we were able to escape by luck is that the formation is periodically weak, but it hasn't been completely destroyed yet. If any outsiders come in, those people will still receive a warning."

Thinking back to the past, the martial artists of the Undying Race had been suppressed in the Holy Ruins.

They found that there were still many ancient warriors who were still struggling on their last legs. They were all people who had gone through the ancient war, and had been abandoned here as corpses.

The people of the world had almost forgotten their real identities. They should be the most suitable candidates.

However, even Yao Feng didn't have the confidence to defeat them.

"I think I should go to the Senluo Prison."

"Let's set off right now."

"Do we need to borrow the power of the Guild Alliance?"

Yao Feng shook his head and firmly refused.

"These sanctimonious guys still belong to the righteous sects. It's impossible for them to go to the prison on a large scale."

"I can use this chance to get rid of the surveillance of the Guild Alliance."

From day to night.

Yao Feng's mental energy quietly spread across the entire beach. He wanted to know where the spy was hiding.

When the moon was completely hidden in the dark clouds, the few broken houses were suddenly covered by a black whirlwind.

The extremely hard rocks were blown into powder.

The things in the houses, along with the people, were all blown away by the wind and disappeared.

The martial artists from the union that were hiding in the dark were instantly dumbfounded. They hurriedly ran over to the beach to take a look.

Naturally, they didn't find anything.

......

After paying respects to the Dragon Clan's Great Prophet, Mu Chen returned to the Sacred Region with Yun Wuya and You Ming Sacred Hands in tow.

However, the master and disciple pair of the thief needed to disguise themselves and hide their identities so that others wouldn't be able to recognize them.

The clone's body was exactly the same as the original body, and even the memory was the same.

Mu Chen booked a room at the hotel closest to the Divine Might Sect and temporarily settled the two of them in.

"Don't run around."

"Your name is still on the wanted poster, and there is a very generous reward."

"I can't protect you if you are hunted by the martial arts sects."

Yun Wuya nodded his head disapprovingly.

"Don't worry. I have all the information about the Sacred Zone in my memory. I will avoid the enemies."

"Take care."

There were more important things to be done by Mu Chen, so he did not want to waste his time with the two of them.

Before the competition, it was most important to ask as much as possible about the competitors. It would be even better if he could get the content of the competition.

Without stopping, he rushed to the Divine Might Sect's headquarters building and asked his master for help.

The atmosphere in the building was much more solemn than usual.

Mu Chen saw the serious expressions on the faces of the disciples who were entering and exiting, as if something important had happened.

Just as he was about to ask someone he knew, he saw Bai Qinghua skipping towards him.

"The mysterious Junior Brother Mu has actually appeared. It's not easy to see you."

"Where did you go to travel to kill time?"

"Of course, I went to do some serious business."

"First tell me why these fellow apprentices have become so weird?"

Mu Chen gently pointed at those people in the hall with his finger.

"The competition between Minglan City and Huahai City has been officially announced. Some of the disciples with strength will inevitably have their own thoughts."2

"According to the rules of the Heaven Realm, the management rights of a martial artist's sect and the main city can't be tied together."

"Those that want to participate in the competition will have a lower status in the sect."

"The person in charge will become a normal member of the clan, while the personal disciple will become an in-name disciple."

"If you really become the City Lord, you will have to be kicked out of the Divine Might Sect."

One couldn't have both the bear paw and the fish at the same time.

Such a weird rule caught Mu Chen off guard.

Did he participate in the competition in order to obtain benefits from the Eastern Emperor Family? Was he going to lose a big backer without obtaining any benefits?

"Why is that?"

"In order to prevent the influence of martial arts sects from expanding too much, if the number of main cities under each disciple's control increases, then wouldn't the sects become a country?"

"This is also to prevent large-scale wars."

The ready-made example was Earth.

If there was no state power, each city would have its own management system, so it would be impossible for the war to be very intense.

Because the city wouldn't be able to hoard too many military forces and strategic resources.

The reason was very adequate, but it also made it difficult for Mu Chen to make a choice.

Go and discuss it with his master.

Mu Chen rushed into Elder Wu Han's office as fast as he could.

The desk was filled with a dazzling array of jewelry and expensive medicinal herbs. The colorful brilliance formed a sharp contrast with Elder Wu Han's simple robe.

"Does Master want to change his business?"

"Shut your crow's beak. Isn't it because of the matter of the City Lord Challenge?"

"Don't you have your own thoughts? Young people should know how to make a choice!"

The benefits of changing the City Lord were too great, and many people would be troubled by it.

The Sect Master had just given the order.

He wanted Elder Wu Han to go to the Fuyun Palace to meet the martial artists of the Elders Guild with decent gifts and chat with them.
