Chapter 681 Nothing Big

Chapter 681: It's Nothing Major

Facing Zhang Yuhe’s admonishment, Ye Zhiqiu let out a soft sigh of relief.

Admonishment meant that past matters were now over.

Zhang Yuhe had no intention of pursuing them.

As long as he could obey the Town Guardian Manor’s orders in the future, it would be fine.

Regarding this, Ye Zhiqiu naturally had no objections.

He was devoted to the Dao and was not like the Zhao and Wang Families, who harbored ulterior motives.

In the past, their Qiuye City had indeed acted somewhat arrogantly and overbearingly.

But that was because the Town Guardian Manor’s strength was too weak back then.

Ye Zhiqiu had his own arrogance.

How could a strong Cultivator bow to a weak Cultivator?

That was why he looked down on those people from the Town Guardian Manor.

He even somewhat looked down on Donghua Palace, thinking that one day he could also Breakthrough to the Supreme God King Realm.

At that time, why would he need to act according to Donghua Palace’s wishes?

However, after meeting Zhang Yuhe, Ye Zhiqiu understood.

He had been overconfident.

The Chaos Sea was vast and boundless, with countless Geniuses.

Donghua Palace’s ability to firmly hold a region meant its foundation was truly beyond his imagination.

Zhang Yuhe had only just taken office and had already overturned the situation on Tianfeng Continent.

Two of the three True God Families were gone.

Zhang Yuhe alone was already so formidable.

Then how powerful must the entire Donghua Palace be?

Ye Zhiqiu had no ulterior motives.

He only wanted to dominate a region and collect as many resources as possible to help him Cultivate smoothly.

Now that Zhang Yuhe was no longer pursuing past matters, Ye Zhiqiu’s tense spirit finally relaxed.

The past was behind them.

This meant that their Qiuye City was still a dominant force on Tianfeng Continent.

As long as they obeyed the Town Guardian Manor’s orders, everything else would remain as usual.

For him, this was a good thing.

The Wang Family was destroyed, and Zhao Zheng was dead.

He had two fewer competitors.

Perhaps in the future, their Qiuye City could develop and grow even stronger by relying on the Town Guardian Manor.

As Ye Zhiqiu was still lost in thought, Zhang Yuhe’s voice faintly drifted over.

“Now Zhao Zheng is dead, but the Zhao Family is still there.”

“I’m too lazy to go, so I’ll leave the Zhao Family for you to handle. Do you have any objections?”

Hearing this, Ye Zhiqiu shivered.

He immediately responded respectfully, “I will obey the Town Guardian Envoy’s command. I will immediately head to Zhengyang City and wipe out the Zhao Family.”

Ye Zhiqiu knew very well that Zhang Yuhe wanted him to present a pledge of allegiance.

If the Zhao Family was annihilated by his hand, then the Tianyang Sect, which backed the Zhao Family, would certainly direct their anger towards him.

Moreover, Zhao Zheng also had a son who had joined the Tianyang Sect years ago.

He would inevitably seek revenge in the future.

Despite this, Ye Zhiqiu did not hesitate at all.

A local official is more influential than a distant one.

The Tianyang Sect was indeed very powerful, even stronger than Donghua Palace.

But so what?

Thinking too much about future matters was useless.

If he dared to disobey orders now, Zhang Yuhe would probably kill him with a flick of his hand.

Besides, wiping out the Zhao Family was also a good assignment.

Zhao Zheng had accumulated resources on Tianfeng Continent for many years.

There were countless precious resources in Zhengyang City.

If the Zhao Family was destroyed, wouldn't these things fall into his hands?

Although most of it would surely have to be handed over to the Town Guardian Manor, even getting a small portion of it would still be a lot.

Ye Zhiqiu rose from obscurity.

He had never joined any major force.

Every resource was obtained through his own efforts.

He deeply understood the preciousness of Cultivation resources.

Now, the Zhao Family was like a fat sheep placed before him, and Zhang Yuhe had given the order.

Ye Zhiqiu naturally had no pressure and was happy to take on this task.

Seeing Ye Zhiqiu so sensible, Zhang Yuhe nodded slightly.

He said faintly, “Remember, root them out, leave no one alive.”

After saying this, Zhang Yuhe made a gesture with his right hand.

A two-meter-square vortex suddenly appeared in the Void Realm.

Zhang Yuhe took a step and quickly vanished without a trace.

“What kind of Divine Ability is this?”

Seeing such a sight, Ye Zhiqiu was utterly shocked.

Breaking through the Void Realm and directly teleporting away—what kind of astonishing power would it take to achieve such a feat?

He completely failed to comprehend it.

The Chaos Sea was not like those Original Worlds.

Even an Eternal Emperor, unless they had special means, would not be able to break through the Void Realm and travel through it in the Chaos Sea.

Clearly, Zhang Yuhe had mastered an extremely powerful Divine Ability that allowed him to quickly teleport through the Void Realm.

Thinking of this, a look of envy involuntarily appeared on Ye Zhiqiu’s face.

“If I could master a Divine Ability like that, wouldn't I be able to go anywhere in the vast world?”

Looking in the direction where Zhang Yuhe had disappeared, Ye Zhiqiu remained silent for a long time.

After a while, he soared into the air, transforming into a streak of light, and quickly flew towards Zhengyang City.

First, he had to destroy the Zhao Family.

This was a task assigned to him by the Town Guardian Envoy.

Ye Zhiqiu dared not be careless in the slightest.

Especially the last sentence Zhang Yuhe left before he left: to completely eradicate the entire Zhao Family, leaving no one alive.

Wasn't this also a warning to him?

He had to handle this matter perfectly.

Ye Zhiqiu believed that as long as he handled this matter properly, Zhang Yuhe would not trouble him again.

Tianfeng City, Town Guardian Manor.

Hu Yue anxiously paced back and forth outside the main hall.

Just a moment ago, a terrifying anomaly suddenly erupted from the direction of Jianglin City.

It seemed as though a super powerful Cultivator was fighting there.

Logically speaking, the Town Guardian Manor managed a region.

They should immediately dispatch forces to Jianglin City to investigate.

They also needed to report to Donghua Palace immediately.

However, the Town Guardian Manor’s power was currently weak.

There were only five or six Void God Cultivators.

Facing such a terrifying and shocking anomaly, how could they dare to go?

As for reporting to Donghua Palace?

If it were in the past, he would have reported it long ago.

But now, Tianfeng Continent had a new Town Guardian Envoy.

He couldn't make decisions on these matters himself anymore.

He had to ask the Town Guardian Envoy for instructions.

Whether to report to Donghua Palace and how to report it—all of this needed to be decided by the Town Guardian Envoy.

He could not overstep his authority in any way.

If he broke the rules, he wouldn't be able to stay in the Town Guardian Manor anymore.

When the anomaly came from afar, Hu Yue immediately came outside the main hall, worried that Zhang Yuhe hadn't seen it.

However, after he arrived, he found that the main hall door was tightly shut.

Hu Yue couldn’t even see Zhang Yuhe, which made him very anxious.

Such a major event had occurred on Tianfeng Continent, yet the Town Guardian Envoy was nowhere to be seen.

If an external enemy were to invade, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Creak…

Just then, the main door slowly opened.

Zhang Yuhe stepped out of the main hall and saw Hu Yue waiting anxiously outside.

He couldn't help but frown and ask, “What’s the matter?”

Uh…

Hearing Zhang Yuhe’s words, Hu Yue didn’t know how to respond.

Damn it.

The sky was practically falling, and he hadn’t seen it?

And he asked what was the matter?

It was unbelievable.

Hu Yue took a deep breath and anxiously reported, “Reporting to the Town Guardian Envoy, a terrifying anomaly suddenly appeared in the direction of Jianglin City just now.”

“It is suspected that a Supreme God King is fighting there.”

“Should we send someone to investigate, or report to the Sect immediately to seek their support?”

Hearing this, Zhang Yuhe couldn’t help but be stunned.

He thought it was some major event.

Just this… and he wanted to ask the Sect for help?

Help for what?

He had already killed the person.

Was he supposed to ask Donghua Palace to send people to clean up the mess?

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuhe was very speechless.

He said faintly, “Oh, so you wanted to talk about this.”

“This is nothing major.”

“It’s just that Wang Jiangyuan colluded with an Extra-territorial Evil God, and I’ve already eliminated him.”

“Also, the Zhao Family defected to the Tianyang Sect, and I’ve already sent Ye Zhiqiu to handle it.”

“It won’t be long before the Zhao Family no longer exists on Tianfeng Continent.”

Ah…

Hearing this, Hu Yue was completely stunned.
