Morning.
A campfire burned in the forest, the scent of roasting meat wafting through the air.
Jiang Shi sat on a large rock, devouring a big bear leg to satisfy his hunger, paying no attention to the corpses surrounding him.
The Wind King and Rain King were speechless, silently handling the bodies.
The Four Symbols Alliance had suffered too much loss this time.
First, they were harmed by Jiang Shi, then again by the Liangyi Alliance.
Currently, only three of them were left alive, and whether they could hold this small Blessed Land was uncertain.
No, with Jiang Shi here, they were certain to hold this small Blessed Land.
But once Jiang Shi left, with just the power of the two, they certainly could not hold this small Blessed Land.
Would Jiang Shi be willing to stay here?
Clearly not!
"Right now, we can only send a message back to the Sect Leader, asking him to contact the Four Symbols Alliance and gather more experts from their side."
The Wind King spoke while dealing with the corpses.
"Let me write the letter."
The Rain King paused, saying in a hoarse voice.
Jiang Shi didn't pay the slightest attention to their conversation.
After eating for a long time.
He finally looked satisfied, wiped his mouth casually, and stood up, saying, "Sometimes, being able to eat one's fill is a kind of happiness. If everyone in this world was just after food, not fame and profit, I believe the world would be much more peaceful."
He raised his head, looking toward the distant forest.
In the morning forest, the distant roars were still audible, like Celestial Thunder, intermittently erupting, deafening.
"What do you think the situation is like over at that Great Blessed Land? What treasures have they found there? It's said the Great Dragon Dynasty buried many treasures in it, is it true?"
Jiang Shi's eyes narrowed slightly as he asked.
The Wind King paused his work hauling the corpses, looked at Jiang Shi, and said lowly, "According to the reports from our Holy Sect spies these past few days, the struggle over at the large Blessed Land is getting more brutal. It's no exaggeration to say each inch of land and river has been soaked in blood, with countless strong men dead or wounded, even Blood Exchange experts find it hard to escape unscathed."
"Is it that severe?"
Jiang Shi raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, with Meng Fang entering the stage, everything changed. Meng Fang has been clearing the field forcibly, killing too many experts for days in a row, almost unstoppable by anyone from the other Four Great Alliances, like a Demon God."
The Wind King spoke in a deep voice.
Not only is Meng Fang's name taboo in the secular Jianghu, but he is also a terrifying existence among the major Noble Families and the Five Great Alliances.
"Can't the other forces work together to stop him?"
Jiang Shi asked.
"It's not about more or fewer people; you're an Innate Vajra, do you think those of the same Realm could stop you? Such a person has gone beyond common sense and cannot be measured by conventional thinking!"
The Wind King said.
Jiang Shi's heart surged.
He was no Innate Vajra.
He was a cheat from Earth!
"If no one can stop him, doesn't that mean this Blessed Land will eventually fall into his hands, or rather, fall into the hands of the Court?"
Jiang Shi asked.
"It's not absolutely unbeatable; other Four Great Alliances also have masters. According to information, the Liangyi Alliance seemingly has a madman arriving soon, whose terrifying strength might be able to confront Meng Fang."
The Wind King replied.
"Madman?"
"Yes, no one knows his name, only this codename. He's no ordinary person, a peerless figure from the Pang Family of Liangyi Alliance, and his bloodline reverted to an ancestral state at birth, with the strength of a thousand catties at the age of three."
The Wind King's tone was serious, saying, "The origins of various Noble Families have always been mysterious, only knowing their bloodlines differ, the more pure the bloodline, the deeper the strength, he being such an ancestral bloodline returner means his blood concentration nearly identical to his ancestors, not even considered human."
"So this guy can match Meng Fang?"
Jiang Shi inquired.
"Maybe, for decades, they have fought twice without a clear winner, so he's dubbed the madman."
The Wind King said, "Once this guy arrives, he should be able to check Meng Fang, but defeating him is hard to say."
"Alright."
Jiang Shi thought inwardly.
It seemed he underestimated this world.
What he knew was just the tip of the iceberg.
Many hidden powerful figures were beyond his knowledge.
"You said earlier that each of the Four Great Alliances has such a person, does our Four Symbols Alliance have one?"
Jiang Shi asked.
"Yes, the Kong Family's Kong Tianri and Kong Xuan!"
The Wind King's voice sank, "But these two rarely show up, they're a pair of twin siblings, whether they can rival Meng Fang is merely speculation, but they have matched Meng Fang's records at the Martial Saint Realm, thus being hailed as those who can contend with Innate Vajra."
"Kong Family?"
Jiang Shi raised an eyebrow.
"You joined the Holy Sect not long ago, so you don't understand the Kong Family's strength, they were once the leader of most Noble Families in history, though they have declined, they still cannot be easily contested by ordinary Noble Families and hidden sects. If it weren't for a peerless hero like the Sect Leader emerging in our Holy Sect, it would probably have been swallowed by the Kong Family long ago."
The Wind King spoke.
"Then what is our Sect Leader's power? Can you give me some insight?"
