Due to this incident, the North Pole Gate suffered heavy casualties and its vitality was greatly damaged. The total number of members was less than half of the original.

Wang Xiaoqiang integrated the two branches into the main sect, and no longer set up branches. This made management easier and avoided any potential changes within the branches.

Three days later, Wang Xiaoqiang held the inauguration ceremony at the North Pole Gate, announcing to the world that he, Wang Xiaoqiang, officially took charge of the North Pole Gate.

Since Feng Biluo stayed at the Five Spirit Sect, Wang Xiaoqiang arranged for Little Qing to stay at the North Pole Gate. Although both women were sensible and would not be jealous of each other, it was best to prevent any issues from arising.

At the Moon Crescent Palace, there was Gong Ziyu.

Though Wang Xiaoqiang was not the master of the Moon Crescent Palace, Gong Ziyu was his woman.

Moreover, after becoming Wang Xiaoqiang's woman, Gong Ziyu was completely obedient to him, treating him as her backbone. She consulted Wang Xiaoqiang on all major and minor matters of the Moon Crescent Palace before making decisions.

It could be said that now, Wang Xiaoqiang was the helmsman of the Moon Crescent Palace.

The Moon Crescent Palace practically belonged to Wang Xiaoqiang.

Originally, Wang Xiaoqiang planned to formally marry Gong Ziyu. However, Gong Ziyu, considering she was nearly twenty years older than Wang Xiaoqiang, feared the gossip of the world and hesitated to make a big deal out of it.

So, they did not have a grand ceremony; instead, they held a small banquet at the Moon Crescent Palace with a few close friends and pledged their lives together in private.

For the next half month, Wang Xiaoqiang focused on learning the Ring Spirit Formation from Cheng Jin.

Wang Xiaoqiang selected four disciples from the elite disciples of the Five Spirit Sect, including the newly promoted elite disciple Jiang Yingxue.

Among these four disciples, one was at the True Immortal Realm Eighth Stage, two were at the True Immortal Realm Seventh Stage, and only Jiang Yingxue was at the True Immortal Realm Fifth Stage.

These four disciples were Wang Xiaoqiang's subjects for experimenting with the Four-Position Ring Spirit Formation.

Although the Four-Position Ring Spirit Formation is the simplest set of formations within the Ring Spirit Formation, it is not easy to set.

First, the Heavenly Pool acupoints on the bodies of the four members had to be opened, and then their acupoints had to be connected using a secret technique to form four strands of Spiritual Energy Line. This connected their bodies with the Spiritual Energy Lines, forming a cycle where spiritual power could be transferred and supplemented through the Heavenly Pool acupoints and Spiritual Energy Lines.

Although it sounds easy, it's actually quite difficult to achieve.

After half a month of effort, the Four-Position Ring Spirit Formation began to take shape. The next step was to continuously perfect the formation to achieve excellence.

Wang Xiaoqiang found that, after forming the Four-Position Ring Spirit Formation, the strength of four True Immortal Realm cultivators was no longer comparable to that of individual True Immortal Realm cultivators. Their combined strength reached the Immortal Venerable Stage, capable of contending with an Immortal Venerable.

The Four-Position Ring Spirit Formation did not satisfy Wang Xiaojing. His goal was the Thousand-Position Ring Spirit Formation and the Myriad Circle Spirit Formation.

He wanted to create a team that could rival an Immortal King with the Myriad Circle Spirit Formation.

If he had such a team, he could challenge people at the Immortal King Level without fear of Prince Ann.

However, judging by the difficulty of forming the Four-Position Ring Spirit Formation, achieving the Myriad Circle Spirit Formation would be extraordinarily challenging.

Furthermore, at this time, Cheng Jin reminded him that even a sect specializing in formations like the Sect of Strange Formations had only managed to form a Hundred Spirits Array, not even the Thousand-Position Ring Spirit Formation.

Not to mention the Myriad Circle Spirit Formation.

The Myriad Circle Spirit Formation requires ten thousand people of the same major realm, such as ten thousand Immortals, to form.

But a Myriad Circle Spirit Formation of ten thousand Immortals is relatively weak and cannot contend with the Immortal King Stage. Only a formation of ten thousand people at the True Immortal Realm can challenge an Immortal King.

It is very easy to find ten thousand disciples at the Immortal Stage, but it is very difficult to find ten thousand disciples at the True Immortal Realm.

The key is that these ten thousand True Immortal Realm disciples must be united and act as one. Otherwise, if even one person harbored ill intentions during a battle, it would disrupt the formation, and its power would be vastly diminished.

Although difficult, Wang Xiaoqiang did not give up. He liked challenges, and the more difficult the task, the more it piqued his interest.

Currently, the Five Spirit Sect had more than three hundred people at the True Immortal Realm, the North Pole Gate had only over two hundred, and the Moon Crescent Palace also had only over two hundred True Immortal Realm disciples. Combined, the three major sects had only about seven to eight hundred people. Not to mention forming the Myriad Circle Spirit Formation, they couldn't even form the Thousand-Position Ring Spirit Formation.

Now, Wang Xiaoqiang had the task of developing the numbers, to develop a group of ten thousand people at the True Immortal Realm.

This is a daunting task, time-consuming and labor-intensive. Its difficulty is no less than his own promotion to Immortal King.

So he decided to put it aside for now, given that Zhao Feiyan's wedding was drawing near.

This day was the day Prince Ann Batian went to the Constellation Sect to present the betrothal gifts.

Wang Xiaoqiang remembered this day clearly.

That day, Wang Xiaoqiang got up early and went to the Constellation Sect accompanied by Cheng Jin and Stone Millet.

When they arrived at the gate of the Constellation Sect, they did not go in directly but waited outside.

Stone Millet was a little puzzled and asked, "Sect Leader, why don't we go in?"

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "Going in too early might create trouble for them. Besides, the old hag of Constellation Sect might not welcome me..."

Stone Millet said, "Does she dare? Doesn't she know that you are now the Sect Leader of two major sects? If she dares to neglect you, she'll be in trouble."

"They've already climbed up to Prince Ann. Why would they still fear us?" Wang Xiaoqiang said with an amused smile.

Stone Millet said, "The Emperor is far away in the Capital City. If Madam Xingyue is smart, she wouldn't dare to neglect you... After all, we are here to offer congratulations, not to cause trouble."

"Who said we're not here to cause trouble? Today, my purpose is to cause trouble," Wang Xiaoqiang said with a wicked smile.

"Ah!" Stone Millet and Cheng Jin were both stunned, their expressions changing drastically. Stone Millet stammered, "Sect, Sect Leader, you, you must be joking, right?"

"Do I usually joke with you?" Wang Xiaoqiang retorted.

Hearing this, their expressions changed completely. Stone Millet swallowed hard and said, "Then, why do you want to cause trouble? Prince Ann Batian is the legitimate son of King Ann. If you cause trouble, you'll offend King Ann, which will make things difficult for us!"

Stone Millet and Cheng Jin had not attended Wang Xiaoqiang's inauguration ceremony at the Five Spirit Sect, so they did not understand Wang Xiaoqiang's fearless and resolute belief. They were puzzled and anxious about Wang Xiaoqiang's intentions.

"I've already offended King Ann. Why would I care about this one time? If he wants to come, let him come. I'm not afraid!" Wang Xiaoqiang said.

Stone Millet and Cheng Jin shrank their necks and dared not speak anymore. They secretly admired Wang Xiaoqiang's courage.

At this moment, within the Constellation Sect, lanterns were hung high, and the atmosphere was joyous and harmonious. The disciples of the Constellation Sect were busily preparing, and guests arrived continuously to offer their congratulations.

Madam Xingyue cautiously scanned each guest, fearing she would see that terrifying figure...Wang Xiaoqiang.

Zhao Feiyan was sitting in the room while two servant disciples busily attended to her, dressing her up. They were determined to make her look as beautiful as possible.

However, despite their best efforts to beautify her, Zhao Feiyan's face remained sullen and gloomy, her expression cold and lifeless as if her spirit was crushed. Though still beautiful, she did not look festive at all.

At this moment, Zhao Feiyan's heart was filled with immense anguish. On one hand, she hoped Wang Xiaoqiang would come to her rescue. On the other hand, she feared his arrival because it would certainly disrupt the wedding, offending King Ann and potentially putting everyone in danger.

If Wang Xiaoqiang were to put himself in danger for her sake, she would rather endure the suffering and submit herself to Prince Ann Batian.
