Chapter 57: Ten Years

After returning to the Guardian Manor, Zhang Yuhe walked into a cultivation secret room.

With a wave of his right hand, five Formation Flags quickly flew toward the surroundings of the cultivation platform.

Zhang Yuhe sat cross-legged on the cultivation platform, then took out a Formation Plate and placed it nearby.

Piles of Spirit Stones were placed around the Formation Flags and the Formation Plate.

After finishing all of this.

Zhang Yuhe executed a spell.

"Activate the formation."

A blue light barrier slowly rose around the cultivation platform.

With the activation of the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array, the surrounding Spiritual Qi quickly converged.

Soon, Zhang Yuhe was surrounded by an ocean of Spiritual Qi.

"Let's get the cultivation going."

Zhang Yuhe slowly circulated the Mixed Origin Heavenly Scripture, and countless wisps of Spiritual Qi rapidly poured into his Dantian.

"So refreshing."

Zhang Yuhe couldn't help but sigh with emotion; the feeling of doubled cultivation effects made him somewhat unable to extricate himself.

…

Time slowly passed.

The action of Yunzhong Prefecture to clear out the remnants of the He and Li families had never stopped.

Under the leadership of Wang Guofeng, the Qian and Sun families dispatched a large number of personnel.

They quickly took control of the dozens of cities controlled by the He and Li families respectively.

Then they searched the cities one by one.

As long as they were Cultivators belonging to the He and Li families, regardless of whether their relationship was distant or close, they were killed one by one.

They heard Lord Guardian's command crystal clear.

"Extermination of the clan."

What does extermination of the clan mean?

That means not a single one is left; even if separated by eight hundred generations, as long as they are Cultivators of the He and Li families, they are all in the ranks of extermination.

Although the ancestral lands of the He and Li families had already been wiped out by Zhang Yuhe,

but as local tyrants who dominated Yunzhong Prefecture, the He and Li families had branched out and spread their leaves for tens of thousands of years.

The number of Cultivators in the Family was truly quite large.

In order not to let a single person slip through the net, Wang Guofeng even found the genealogy books of the two families and followed the clues.

Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng also performed extremely hard in this matter; not only did they dispatch a large number of Family Cultivators,

but the two of them also personally led teams to wipe out the Golden Core Cultivators of the He and Li families first.

As for the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the He and Li families, basically all of them died at the hands of the Horned Demon Clan during the time at Mirror Void City.

Facing the crisis of clan extermination, the He and Li families stirred up fierce resistance in various cities.

However, all of this was futile effort.

Without high-level Cultivators holding down the fort, they completely could not block the attacks of the two Nascent Soul Cultivators, Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng.

A few days later, groups of Cultivators from the He and Li families were basically completely wiped out.

However, there were still quite a few Cultivators from these two families scattered everywhere.

There were even many Cultivators of these two families who had long gone to develop outside of Yunzhong Prefecture.

For these people, Wang Guofeng still did not plan to let them go; he had Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng send people to hunt them down everywhere.

Not only that, Wang Guofeng also mobilized a large number of players to participate.

However, these players could only be considered personally recruited by him and did not belong to the personnel of the Guardian Manor.

Wang Guofeng allocated a portion of the spoils from the cleanup as task rewards for the players.

The cleanup operation lasted for a full ten years before it began to come to a temporary end.

…

A certain grand hall inside the Guardian Manor.

Wang Guofeng was discussing matters with Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng.

Over the past ten years, Wang Guofeng often gathered these two people together to summarize the cleanup process,

and check if there were any remaining remnants left behind.

The three of them chatted and laughed happily inside the grand hall, and the atmosphere was completely harmonious.

After ten years of getting along, Wang Guofeng had long since blended seamlessly with the Qian and Sun families.

With his background, dealing with the great aristocratic families in Yu Fantian was completely effortless.

Furthermore, with the identity of Inspector appointed by Zhang Yuhe, who would dare not give Face within this Yunzhong Prefecture?

In order to complete the commands issued by Zhang Yuhe, they naturally needed to cooperate sincerely.

Of course, more importantly, everyone shared common interests.

With the fall of the He and Li families, those who profited the most were naturally the Qian and Sun families.

They took over the territories and industries of the He and Li families respectively, making the development momentum of the two families go a step further.

As for Wang Guofeng, he naturally did not suffer any losses either.

A tacit understanding had long been formed among the three of them.

The territories and industries belonged to the Qian and Sun families, but the resources and treasures were all allocated by Wang Guofeng.

Of course, no one dared to touch the share belonging to Lord Guardian; it had always been kept aside.

Everyone took what they needed, and everyone was happy.

Qian Weiguang asked Wang Guofeng with a beaming smile.

"Brother Wang, do you know when Lord Guardian will exit seclusion?"

"That is right, we haven't seen Lord Guardian for a long time; I wonder when we will be able to hear his teachings."

Sun Pengcheng at the side also hurriedly chimed in to agree.

When the three of them discussed matters together, they could usually chat and laugh when talking about other things.

But once they talked about Lord Guardian, Zhang Yuhe, they all wore solemn expressions.

They wouldn't dare to have even the slightest joking expression.

They truly did not dare.

Zhang Yuhe's strength and methods made them harbor awe in their hearts.

Hearing the two asking about Zhang Yuhe, Wang Guofeng couldn't help but smile bitterly.

This really stumped him.

Over the past ten years, Wang Guofeng, just like everyone else, had never seen Zhang Yuhe.

Although after logging off, he could indeed get in touch with Zhang Yuhe.

There was Zhang Yuhe's contact information on the Sky Net.

Blue Star was not big either; a phone call to arrange a place, and they could meet in minutes.

But Wang Guofeng did not do this.

He had this awareness.

As long as Zhang Yuhe did not take the initiative to look for him, he would not go and disturb him.

There really was no suitable reason.

If nothing major happened, he was afraid that looking for him would cause Zhang Yuhe's aversion.

Ten years passed, and all the Blue Star players still did not know that the Guardian Envoy of Yunzhong Prefecture was actually also a player.

It has to be said that Wang Guofeng was indeed a person with a tight mouth.

Very reliable.

For such a long time, he had never leaked Zhang Yuhe's identity to anyone.

Wang Guofeng was just about to open his mouth to speak,

when suddenly a stream of light flashed past the front of the grand hall.

The three of them hurriedly ran out of the hall.

"Is that Lord Guardian?"

Qian Weiguang asked in a low voice.

"Yes, I definitely won't mistake Lord Guardian's demeanor."

Even though Zhang Yuhe had already flown an unknown distance away by this time, Sun Pengcheng still did not forget to flatter him.

"Lord Guardian's aura seems to have grown stronger again."

"That is only natural; with Lord Guardian's celestial posture, I suppose he is about to break through to the Refining Void Realm."

"Once Lord Guardian breaks through to the Refining Void Realm, he will be an Elder of the Dao Saint Sect in the future. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to see Lord Guardian's peerless demeanor again."

"Indeed, indeed."

The two of them, Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng, showered Zhang Yuhe with flattery.

Wang Guofeng stood to the side, deep in thought.

He completely could not perceive what Zhang Yuhe's aura was really like.

Although over the past ten years, Wang Guofeng's cultivation had not lagged behind, and at this time he had cultivated to the Golden Core Great Perfection.

As long as the timing was right, it was possible to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm at any time.

But to him, the distance to Zhang Yuhe was simply too far.

The gap between Golden Core and Soul Transformation cannot be measured in the same breath.

"He's not really going to break through to the Refining Void Realm, is he?"

Wang Guofeng was somewhat conflicted in his heart.

Once Zhang Yuhe broke through to the Refining Void Realm, he would automatically be promoted to an Elder of the Dao Saint Sect.

Then naturally he would no longer need to continue serving as the Guardian Envoy in Yunzhong Prefecture.

If Zhang Yuhe was no longer the Guardian Envoy, what would happen to him?

At this moment, Wang Guofeng felt a bit flustered.

He hadn't enjoyed the majesty of being an Inspector enough, yet it seemed he was about to lose his job.

On one hand, Wang Guofeng naturally hoped that Zhang Yuhe's strength would be as strong as possible.

On the other hand, he was somewhat reluctant to part with the job of Inspector.

This job was not only lucrative, but also possessed an illustrious status.

At least that was the case in Yunzhong Prefecture.

"I wonder if Senior Zhang will still need me to handle things for him after becoming an Elder of the Dao Saint Sect?"

Wang Guofeng very much wanted to be able to hug Zhang Yuhe's thighs all along.

But he knew that if he wanted to hug someone else's thighs, he first had to be useful.

A useless person was not worthy of being a hanger-on.

Therefore, upon hearing Qian Weiguang mention that Zhang Yuhe might soon break through to the Refining Void Realm,

Wang Guofeng couldn't help but become somewhat conflicted.
