"Young Lord, if you really are a Peak Nascent Soul Realm expert, you must head to Song Country and participate in the assembly to back our Yue Country!" Mo Rushui and the others pleaded to Ning Fan.
"Don’t worry. I will not just stand by and watch!"
Ning Fan nodded and gave his promise. After dismissing the heads of the four families, he turned around and returned to Si Fan Palace, directly hugging Zhi He to sleep.
Tonight was the first night they reunited. Without a doubt, they would have some intimacy to celebrate their reunion.
On the next day, Ning Fan secretly left Si Fan Palace and headed to other places in Yue Country.
He did not only have friends in Seven Apricot City but also in other places. No matter what, he still had to pay them a visit.
In Ning City, the Three Divine Armies of the Black Devil were standing guard as usual.
Forty years had passed. The fame of the armies had spread across the entire Yue Country because all the devil guards had reached at least the Harmonious Spirit Realm.
As for the three commanders of the armies, their cultivation bases were even higher. Even Nan Yangzi and Lu Nanzi had achieved great improvements in their cultivation.
When Ning Fan appeared in Ning City, no one noticed how he got in.
The three divine armies were greatly shocked by his appearance at first. The sound of countless arrows whistling through the air resounded.
However, when the armies got a clearer look at Ning Fan’s appearance, each of them was petrified as if they had just seen a ghost.
In the next instant, an earth-shattering cheer erupted within the city!
"It’s our young lord! Our young lord has returned!"
"The Three Divine Armies of the Black Devil greets the Young Lord! Welcome back to Yue Country!"
Countless cultivators knelt down before Ning Fan. Among the crowd, a few people who looked overjoyed rapidly flew toward him.
"Nan Gong, Si Tu, Wei Chi, Nan Yangzi, Lu Nanzi greets the Young Lord!"
"You all may dispense with the formalities."
Ning Fan’s eyes scanned across everyone. Looking at each and every one of those familiar faces, his heart gradually turned warm.
The commander of the ice division, Nan Gong, cultivated both the ice and lightning elements. He had already reached the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul Realm. Currently, he was a renowned expert of Yue Country.
The commander of the sword division, Si Tu, emanated an imposing aura of evil sword qi. His cultivation base had already reached the Late Gold Core Realm. With his current strength, he could even put up a fight against a Peak Gold Core Realm cultivator!
Wei Chi, the commander of the apricot division, was still as buff as back then. He actually had also reached the Peak Gold Core Realm by depending on the dual cultivation method between human and beast.
Nan Yangzi was already at the Mid Gold Core Realm whereas Lu Nanzi was at the Early Gold Core Realm.
Wei Chi looked at Ning Fan with a silly smile on his face. There was a ravishing woman following behind him.
"My wife, come and meet our young lord."
"This maidservant greets the Young Lord." As soon as Wei Chi’s wife heard what her husband said, she bowed at Ning Fan respectfully.
Ning Fan was slightly surprised. After not meeting them for forty years, We Chi had actually established his own family already?
When Ning Fan shifted his eyes toward that beautiful woman, he nearly could not hold in his laughter.
That beauty was not a human but a pig demoness. Her original body was a sky river pig.
If Ning Fan was not mistaken, she was the little piglet which Wei Chi held in his embrace!
After having sexual intercourse and performing dual cultivation with Wei Chi, this piglet had also broken through to the Gold Core Realm and gained human form.
Ning Fan who rarely expressed his emotions laughed to his heart’s content. This Wei Chi really was amusing. Making a pig demoness his wife...
When Ning Fan laughed, everyone was stunned for a second and began laughing together.
Their laughter was as carefree as before.
However, when they finished laughing, Nan Gong’s eyes turned serious. He cupped his fists at Ning Fan and said, "I suppose Young Lord should have already heard about the Great Jin’s Merger on your way back to Yue Country. I wonder if you have any plans in mind!"
When everyone heard Nan Gong raising an important issue, their expressions began to turn serious again and stood up straight to await Ning Fan’s orders.
If Ning Fan orders them to join Great Jin, they would follow his order despite their reluctance.
If Ning Fan orders them to wage a bloody war with Great Jin, they would be willing to shed their blood in Great Jin even if they could not defeat them!
As long as Ning Fan gives them an order, they would certainly obey without any qualms!
"Plan? Well, this is an unnecessary question. I’m originally uninterested in Great Jin’s plan of integrating the other countries. However, since they have laid their hands on my people, it’s impossible for me to ignore this matter. They need to pay with their lives!"
Ning Fan’s eyes were cold and indifferent. It was the bone-chilling coldness that one would have after trampling upon countless corpses and seas of blood.
When Nan Gong and the others met Ning Fan’s eyes, their expression turned pale. Each of them had strong cultivation bases. In Yue Country, they were considered first-class experts. However, they could not withstand the killing qi from a single look in Ning Fan’s eyes at all!
"Young Lord, what exactly is your cultivation base?! You could make us lose all resistance with just a look!" Nan Gong was flabbergasted.
In his life, he had only met a cold look that intense once before. It was the expression he read from Old Devil’s eyes when he met him for the first time!
Those eyes carried a devil might that looked down upon the entire world. No one could rival him!
"You all should get some rest for now. Nine days later, I’ll lead all of you to Song Country!"
Ning Fan smiled. In a flash, he had already vanished without a trace.
Every single person in the three armies was astonished. That was an exceedingly frightening travelling light. The speed was not something they could imagine!
"Is it possible that... our young lord has already broken through to the Divine Transformation Realm?!" Nan Gong guessed inwardly, finding it difficult to believe. From his perspective, only the legendary Divine Transformation Realm experts could possibly have that kind of travelling light.
