Chapter 44: The Seven Products of the Proud Cold Sect

  "Still not stopping for me? As if I don't exist!" Fang Zhen's loud shout stopped Gao Xi, and he shouted at the crowd around him.

  "Also, Gao Wei'an and Wang Doufu, you two shameless old dogs still want to hide until when, don't come out for me yet."

  "Fang Zhen, you're so arrogant and overbearing. Are you looking to have a big showdown with the Gao family?" Gao Wei'an walked out of the crowd, his face pale as iron.

  "Gao Wei'an, you shameless old dog! You've actually mobilized the violent Qi realm's clansmen to kill my son over a grudge between juniors? Are you truly not afraid that I'll wipe out your entire Gao family?" Fang Zhen's face turned icy cold as he rebuked him mercilessly.

  "Afraid? How can I not be afraid? I'm so scared!" Gao Wei'an's face showed disdain. "Fang Zhen, you should be worried that it's your Fang family who will be destroyed instead!"

  "King brother, this Fang family is lawless and allows their son to commit murder, successively killing two of our clan's geniuses. Such a scourge should be eliminated from the city of Yanzhou."

  "What a big tall hat you are wearing! Do you really think our family has no one?!" Fang Zhen's face turned cold, this High Constable An was truly too shameless.

  "The Lord of the City has arrived, the Lord of the City has arrived." Suddenly, a loud shout rose from the crowd, and Mo Shi'an, the Lord of the City of Yangzhou, had arrived.

  "What are you doing? What are you doing?! Are you not afraid of ruining the Yanzhou Trading Market?" Mo Shi's tiger-like back and bear-like waist, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, gave off an aura of unyielding authority. This man, surrounded by a crowd of followers, entered the Yanzhou Trading Market and loudly rebuked the three tense forces.

  See Lord Mo of the city.

  See Lord of Mocheng.

  ……

  The three forces heard Mo Shi'an's rebuke and one by one they lowered their heads and eyes, bowing to ask for mercy.

  Although the two families of Gao and Wang are invincible in Yanzhou City, they are one of the three major families in Yanzhou City, but in front of the eighth-grade force of the lord of Yanzhou City, they don't even count as a single hair.

  "You, you, you, get all the people from your three families to scram. Follow me to the City Master's mansion." Mo Shi An was full of momentum and aura, with an overbearing attitude, pointing at Fang Zhen, Gao Wei An, Wang Dou Fu and others, scolding them in anger, then turned around and left.

  Yuzhou City Lord Mo Shi'an had just left, and the three major forces were like a startled little deer, always feeling uneasy. Although they looked fierce, just now, Mo Shi'an's aura was exposed, and they felt that they could be beheaded at any time. The three of them can be said to have made a unanimous gesture of wiping cold sweat with their hands.

  "Could this be the realm of taking lives? A single thread of aura revealed by Guang is so profound and unfathomable."

  Because Mo Shi An was only targeting Gao Wei An, Fang Zhen and Wang Dou Fu, the others were slightly weaker and did not notice Mo Shi An's fear. One by one, they revealed strange expressions, this Zhongzhou City Lord Mo Shi An had always been a dragon that appeared in the beginning but not at the end, how could he suddenly appear in this trading market?

  "Father, I was wrong, I've caused you trouble." Lord Mo Shi An left, and Fang Yan's face was filled with apology.

  "What are you talking about, you did great, your personality used to be a bit weak, otherwise others wouldn't have been able to scold you as a waste in cultivation. Don't blame yourself, what you did today was very good, like Gao Peng, Gao Songming and other high-ranking disciples of the Gao family, if they should kill, they will kill, being merciful to enemies is being cruel to oneself." Fang Zhen smiled and patted Fang Yan's head with a loving expression. Then he turned around and said...

  "Fang Tao, this struggle between the three families is no longer possible. The city master has something to discuss with us, so you can send Fang Yan back home!"

  "Understood, master. I will ensure Fang Yan's safe return home." Fang Tao nodded and acknowledged the order.

  "Alas... You're really something, I'm your uncle, you and Fang Yan are of the same generation, no need to call him Young Master, just address each other as peers." Looking at the serious face of Fang Tao, Fang Zhen sighed and shook his head.

  "Master, etiquette cannot be abandoned. He is the future heir of the Fang family and should be addressed as Young Master." Fang Tao's face was solemn, and he had always felt guilty towards Fang Yan. If it weren't for his father, Fang Hai, intervening, Fang Yan wouldn't have been separated from his mother since childhood.

  "Alas... never mind! It's not your father's fault back then, and you don't have to blame yourself so much." Fang Zhen shook his head with a bitter smile, and then headed towards the City Lord's Manor.

  Yanzhou City Lord Mo Shi'an made his move, and the two families of Gao Wang naturally wouldn't dare to cause trouble for Fang Yan again. Fang Tao successfully sent Fang Yan back to the Fang family.

  The lord of the castle, Mo Shi'an, summoned the heads of the three major families. Fang Yan knew that the lord's mansion in this small state was a ninth-grade force, not something his Fang family could contend with. After Father left, he had been worried about Father's safety all along, and even Fang Tao, who sent him back home, did not return to the Anyang transaction market.

  "Fang Tao, big brother, what do you think the City Lord wants with Father at the City Lord's Manor?" Fang Yan Jing couldn't calm down to cultivate and was pacing back and forth in the main hall. Seeing that it was getting late, and Fang Zhen had been out for more than half a day, he rushed to ask Fang Tao.

  "I'm not very clear about this either. The lord of the city has always been a dragon that appears and disappears, if there's nothing big going on, you can't even see him." Fang Tao also furrowed his brow.

  "Alas, I hope nothing unexpected happens." Fang Yan's fists were clenched tightly as he sighed to himself. His strength was still too weak. If his strength were a bit stronger, he wouldn't be afraid of any major power. The two families of Gao and Wang dared to provoke him? He would directly wipe them out.

  "Young master, the head of the household is back." Suddenly, Fang Tao, who was standing at the door, reminded Fang Yan.

  "What? Father is back!" Fang Yan's face was filled with surprise, and he rushed out of the door. Sure enough, he saw Fang Zhenlong walking towards the main hall of the Fang family with a majestic stride.

  "Father, you're back! Didn't the Lord of the City give you a hard time?" Fang Yan asked with a worried face as soon as he saw Fang Zhen.

  "No, Lord City Master wouldn't make things difficult for us. He summoned the heads of our three families and lectured us a few sentences, telling us not to fight among ourselves and waste the strength of Yanzhou City. Incidentally, he informed us that seven days later, the Seventh-Rank Sect, Hao Han Sect, will come to Yanzhou City to select disciples with excellent qualifications, and also invited us to stay for dinner, so we returned a bit late." Fang Zhen smiled as he spoke.

  "The Seven Product Sect, the Proud Cold Sect. What a powerful sect that is. I've never heard of it before." Fang Yan furrowed his brow upon hearing this.

  "Ao Han Sect, it's a seventh-grade sect within the He Kou Prefecture. There are cultivators who have reached the Yin-Yang realm sitting in meditation within the sect. The sect is filled with experts beyond count. If you can join Ao Han Sect, then you'll be like a fish leaping over the dragon gate, and my Fang family will also rise with the tide. The two families of Fang and Gao wouldn't dare to lay hands on you."

  "With your qualifications, joining the Hao Han Sect shouldn't be a difficult task." Thinking of how Fang Yan's cultivation at the 8th level of Qi Refining was able to defeat Gao Peng in the Violent Qi Realm, he couldn't help but say.

  "This Haohan Sect only accepts geniuses under the age of twenty, unfortunately, Fang Tao, you're already over twenty. The only ones in our Fang family who can hold their heads high are you and Qingxuan." Fang Zhen said with a hint of regret as he looked at Fang Tao.

  "Father, this Cold Mountain Sect has many talented disciples. How should we select them? Should we look at their cultivation or their innate talent?" Fang Yan asked Fang Zhen.

  "This is not very clear, and we must wait for the envoy of the Proud Cold Sect to arrive before we know." Fang Zhen furrowed his brow. "This time is your great opportunity to leap from a carp to a dragon, you must grasp it firmly, with the eighth-grade sect's cultivation, you have a high probability of entering the realm of life and death."
