They were waiting for Xue Fei, not because Xue Fei was strong, but because Xue Fei’s Great Dao was different.
This guy walked the Great Dao of Nightmare, which was very similar to the Great Dao of Sha Zhimeng, but as a Sky Opener, he was definitely stronger than Sha Zhimeng.
Last time, Han Fei, Wang Yijian, and the others killed Xue Fei instantly, so this guy didn’t show the power of his Great Dao.
However, in group battles, this Great Dao was very strong. If the other party made any mistakes and was dragged into a dream by Xue Fei, or even obtained the information of the origin object, the consequences could be imagined.
Therefore, this was the real reason why they waited for Xue Fei.
!!
After Han Fei made the decision, Zhang Wei said, “Okay, Old Xue, go to report your work! Brother Li is the closest to Brother Qiu. In order to keep this matter secret, we’ll meet up in Brother Li’s city in half a month. This matter is settled. Let’s meet again in half a month.”
Han Fei said, “Old Zhang, you’re my good buddy. I, Xue Fei, owe you a favor. Brother Qiu, no matter if we can succeed or not, I’ll owe you a favor too.”
Only then did Qiu Chen relax a little. He said, “Brother Xue is generous. Then I’ll treat you like my friend.”
“Hahaha!”
…
Zhang Wei and Long Yunfeng had clearly finished briefing.
Besides, Han Fei could guess that they dared to wait here so openly because they pretended to mediate the dispute between Xue Fei and Qiu Chen.
It was not difficult for others to know that Xue Fei had refused Qiu Chen. As for Zhang Wei, Long Yunfeng, and Zhang Li, they knew Xue Fei well. It was indeed not bad for them to be peacemakers.
Therefore, the meeting of these people would not attract the attention of others. In fact, others might not even care. This was because even Zhang Wei was only ranked 68th in the City of Scavengers. In the eyes of some strong masters, this ranking was barely mid-level. There were many Sky Opening Realm powerhouses who looked down on them.
Cultivators were like scholars who regarded each other lightly. There were very few true feelings between them. To the outside, they might be united against a common enemy, but to the inside, it was hard to say.
After Zhang Wei and the others left, Xue Fei got up with no expression on his face. In fact, as a puppet, everything about him was controlled by Han Fei. When Han Fei wasn’t controlling him, he just maintained his original appearance. The strong were always expressionless, so no one could tell anything.
The City of Scavengers spanned 100,000 kilometers. The mountain palace where Han Fei was located was a place where strong masters gathered near the gate of the main city, but usually not many Sky Opening Realm powerhouses came here.
And the core area of this city was naturally the Ten Thousand Scale Race’s Holy Land where the Ten Thousand Scale Monarch was located.
Beyond the Holy Land of the Ten Thousand Scale Race were some of the big clans of the Ten Thousand Scale Race. And there were only ten families that could become big clans in the City of Scavengers, which were the top ten farms.
It was said that the strength of these ten lords had reached the peak of the Sky Opening realm. Han Fei didn’t know if there was a limit to this peak.
However, what was certain was that these people were very strong. Each of them was stronger than all the emperors Han Fei had encountered so far except for the Martial King and Xia Hongzhu.
In addition to these ten lords, there were also some extremely powerful emperors who didn’t enter the family system.
For example, the law enforcer of the City of Scavengers, Zhao Honghuang.
The person Han Fei would report to was Zhao Honghuang. This person’s strength was unfathomable, and it was said that he was already above the top ten lords. The reason why he could become a law enforcer was that he was an itinerant cultivator. He didn’t like to be bothered by such troublesome matters as families and clans. What he left in the City of Scavengers was an avatar, which was known to everyone, but no one knew where his true body was.
And even this avatar had also reached the Sky Opening realm. It was said that it was also comparable to the top ten lords.
Therefore, this person was known as one of the two Divine Generals only below the Ten Thousand Scale Monarch in the City of Scavengers.
The other Divine General was named Zhang Beihai. This person rarely appeared in the City of Scavengers. It seemed that his main battlefield was the Infinite Mining Area, which was the unknown mining area that could only be reached after crossing the Godfiend Sea.
Inside the City of Scavengers, there was a small city called the Law Enforcement City. This was where the law enforcers of the City of Scavengers stayed. To become a law enforcer here, the lowest level was Sea Establishers.
Outside the Law Enforcement City, Han Fei revealed his identity, and someone immediately recognized Xue Fei. A Sea Establisher said, “Please come in, my lord. My master is not in seclusion. You can go straight there.”
“Xue Fei” nodded slightly, and Han Fei walked in with Xue Fei, which represented respect for law enforcers.
After a while, outside a very ordinary undersea jungle, Xue Fei cupped his fists and said, “Master Honghuang, Xue Fei, the lord of the No. 80 farm in the City of Scavengers, is here to report.”
The voice echoed. A moment later, an indifferent voice sounded, “Come in.”
Xue Fei kept a straight face, lowered his head, and walked in. Han Fei, who was pretending to be Han Dong, lowered his head too. He came with Xue Fei and it was not easy for him to see Zhao Honghuang, so he wasn’t supposed to look straight at Zhao Honghuang.
A moment later, on a piece of algae limestone, Han Fei saw a Ten Thousand Scale Race powerhouse whose scales had completely turned into jade. This person was Zhao Honghuang.
When Han Fei saw the degree of jadeization on his body, he was shocked. So far, he had only turned his bones into jade. But this person’s scales had even turned into jade, which showed that his physique was better than his.
Besides, even if this person didn’t move or open his eyes, Han Fei could already feel the overwhelming suppressing pressure of the strong. This was something Han Fei hadn’t felt for a long time.
Xue Fei said, “Master Honghuang, more than 800 million Clean Stones were consumed by Mountain City in this tide wave. Apart from the 100 million Clean Stones provided for free at the beginning, there are about 150 million energy crystals left. This time, ….Venerables have died, and… In addition, Mountain City brought a total of 802 Venerables this time. Shall I send them directly to the law enforcement camp later?”
At this moment, Zhao Honghuang slowly opened his eyes. His eyes seemed to be unfathomable, as if he wanted to see through Xue Fei at a glance.
Han Fei was also worried that Xue Fei would be seen through. At this moment, he didn’t dare to raise his head, ready to fuse his twin bodies at any time.
However, Zhao Honghuang didn’t find anything wrong with Xue Fei. Instead, he asked casually, “I heard that Mountain City’s tax is reduced to 30% for three hundred years. Why?”
Zhao Honghuang didn’t care about the data that Han Fei reported at all. He naturally knew that there were more energy crystals, but which lord wasn’t greedy? This was the norm. Only if the lords were greedy could they better serve the City of Scavengers. Besides, in fact, they were greedy but didn’t dare to be too greedy. It was useless. So many energy crystals couldn’t be used up by one lord.
However, taxes couldn’t be reduced easily. Since they were reduced, there must be a reason.
Han Fei said loudly, “Master Honghuang, there are two reasons for this tax reduction. Firstly, too many primitive mines have been handed over this year. If this goes on, it won’t be good for the overall strength of Mountain City in the future. We have to give them some time to nurture some people.”
Seeing that Zhao Honghuang didn’t respond and seemed to be waiting for Han Fei to continue, Han Fei realized that this should be normal for the other lords.
Therefore, Han Fei continued, “Secondly, I released the tax to nurture some seedlings. A talented person appeared in Mountain City.”
“Oh?”
Zhao Honghuang was a little interested and couldn’t help but ask, “What’s his potential?”
Han Fei said, “Judging from his potential, he has the potential to open the sky. However, he can’t fully unleash his potential yet. He still needs to gain experience.”
Zhao Honghuang: “A conservative estimate?”
Xue Fei nodded slightly. “He can at least open the sky.”
Zhao Honghuang smiled. “Interesting. It seems that you have a high opinion of this seedling!”
After that, Zhao Honghuang added, “But what does this have to do with tax reduction?”
Han Fei said, “This person is originally a human and has some feelings for the human race. However, he accidentally ate foreign blood, so he shouldn’t be considered a human. I promised him to give the human race a three-hundred-year tax deduction, and then he will belong to the Ten Thousand Scale Race.”
Zhao Honghuang nodded slightly. “Yes! Since there’s a reason for this, I allow it. What’s his current strength?”
Han Fei said, “His heavenly tribulation is coming.”
Zhao Honghuang said, “Well, it’s up to you! Just bring him over. In addition, when there’s no conflict, you can help other lords. Don’t be too rigid.”
Han Fei said, “Yes, Master Honghuang.”
“Um!”
Zhao Honghuang grunted and looked at Han Fei who was following him with his head lowered.
He said, “You, raise your head.”
Han Fei pretended to be nervous, making his palms sweat and his face blush. He slowly raised his head and quickly cupped his hands. “Yan Dong greets Master Law Enforcer.”
Zhao Honghuang looked him up and down. “Um! There’s hope for him to open the sky, but his aptitude is just mediocre.”
After that, Zhao Honghuang lost interest and looked at Xue Fei. “If that seedling is really as you said, you will be rewarded for discovering him. Since you only brought 802 people here, it seems that they are all elites of Mountain City. Then send them to the law enforcement camp! As for the specific opportunities, it depends on them.”
Xue Fei immediately cupped his hands. “Thank you, Master Honghuang.”
Zhao Honghuang was right. He had reduced taxes and only sent 802 people over this time. It felt like he was here to offer a Heavenly Talent.
But in fact, all of this was to leave a good impression on Zhao Honghuang. After all, if he dared to agree to a tax deduction of 300 years just to gain a seedling, this seedling was definitely not bad. Zhao Honghuang wouldn’t doubt this.
As for the details, Zhao Honghuang would definitely have his own considerations and would definitely pay attention. After all, this was a seedling that Xue Fei was willing to reduce taxes to nurture.
When Han Fei’s original body came, if he had this person as his backer, he would probably have a lot of freedom even if he couldn’t do whatever he wanted in the City of Scavengers.
At least, no one would dare to provoke him for the fact that he was a human.
