Chapter 445: Chapter 185: Sweep, Outbreak

’A True Disciple of the Sword Sect...’

Fang Xing looked at Xu Tian, sensing a powerful Sword Intent emanating from him.

He was like an unsheathed Divine Sword, emitting an invisible, razor-sharp aura.

’Why does it feel like he can see right through me with a single glance?’

Gazing at the handsome young man before him, Xu Tian felt completely exposed, as if he had no secrets to hide.

The feeling was especially intense.

Although he sensed the young man before him was only at the Early Stage of True Essence First Layer, the presence he projected was more terrifying than even a master at the Middle Stage of True Essence.

"May I ask your name, Elder?" he asked, mustering his courage.

"Li Feiyu!"

Fang Xing’s voice rang out as he gave the name.

’Li Feiyu...’

Hearing the name, Xu Tian quickly searched his memory but came up with nothing.

It was the first time he had ever heard the name.

He was certain that no such person existed in the Liang Kingdom.

He seemed far too young.

This wasn’t the superficial youth that came from Cultivating Martial Arts, but genuine youth in terms of actual age.

A Grandmaster this young couldn’t possibly be a nobody.

Not only was the name unfamiliar, but his face was as well.

While he couldn’t possibly know everyone in the Liang Kingdom, a Grandmaster this young had to have an extraordinary background.

’Could he be from an Upper Country?’ The thought popped into Xu Tian’s head.

Ling Province, after all, bordered the Great Jing Upper Country.

It wasn’t out of the question for him to be a prodigy from the Upper Country.

After all, he knew a few things about the Great Jing Upper Country—a Dynasty where it was said every man was a dragon, teeming with countless prodigies.

Even if he wasn’t a prodigy from the Upper Country, he definitely had to be someone with a powerful background.

Befriending such a person could only be beneficial.

With this in mind, a friendly smile appeared on Xu Tian’s face. "Thank you again for your help, Elder Li. I am deeply grateful. I was wondering if you would do me the honor of joining me for a meal?"

"Hm?"

Fang Xing looked at Xu Tian, his expression impassive, but he was secretly using his Primordial Spirit to probe him.

’An Upper Sect True Disciple should be very familiar with the situation in the Liang Kingdom. Yes, I can ask him for more details about Ten Thousand Demon Mountain.’

The thought flashed through his mind, and with that, Fang Xing gave a slight nod.

Seeing this, a smile immediately blossomed on Xu Tian’s face. He gestured and said, "Elder Li, after you."

Fang Xing nodded and followed Xu Tian.

Soon, the two of them arrived in Nanchuan County Town.

They went to a restaurant in the county town and got a private room on the top floor.

Xu Tian enthusiastically ordered a table full of delicacies and some of the house’s specialty wines.

"Elder Li, please have a seat."

Inside the private room, Xu Tian pulled out the chair in the seat of honor. Fang Xing sat down without ceremony.

Xu Tian sat beside him, picked up the teapot, and poured a cup of hot tea.

"Elder Li, thank you again for your assistance. Without it, I’m afraid I would not have been able to handle that Cyan Moon Demon King," Xu Tian said with a bright smile.

Fang Xing raised his teacup, took a small sip, and replied calmly, "It was nothing. I was merely passing by."

Hearing this, Xu Tian’s eyes shifted slightly. He looked at Fang Xing and asked tentatively,

"Elder Li, you must be from the Great Jing Upper Country, aren’t you?"

Fang Xing looked at him but didn’t answer directly. Instead, he asked a question of his own, "You know a lot about Great Jing?"

Xu Tian was taken aback for a moment, then he smiled. "Not especially, but I’ve heard a few things. That in the Great Jing Upper Country, every man is a dragon, and I hear there are as many as ten Great Upper Sects."

"..."

’Every man is a dragon.’

Hearing Xu Tian’s words, Fang Xing cringed inwardly.

If he weren’t so familiar with Great Jing, he might have actually believed him.

"I am indeed from Great Jing. Have you ever heard of the Supreme Dao of Great Jing?"

Fabricating an identity was second nature to him.

Among Great Jing’s Ten Great Upper Sects, the Supreme Dao Sect was by far the most mysterious.

"The Supreme Dao Sect."

Xu Tian’s eyes widened in shock.

’Just as I thought, his background is extraordinary!’

Looking at Fang Xing, he nodded. "So Elder Li is from the Supreme Dao. My respects, my respects."

"Think nothing of it. I’m just out traveling for a while."

’Perfectly reasonable for an Upper Sect Disciple to be out on a journey, right?’

"I see," Xu Tian said with a look of dawning realization, his smile growing even more cordial.

As the dishes arrived, the two ate and talked, their conversation flowing easily as they drank together. The atmosphere was quite harmonious.

Through his probing questions, Fang Xing learned more detailed information about the Liang Kingdom from Xu Tian.

The situation in the Liang Kingdom was far more severe than he had realized.

Evil Cults were rampant, and Demons and Monsters were wreaking havoc.

The Court of the Liang Kingdom existed in name only.

Regarding the demonic forces, aside from Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, there was another major faction known as the Demon Palace.

This Demon Palace was, in fact, the most terrifying demonic faction in the entire Liang Kingdom.

The demonic factions rampaging across the Liang Kingdom all had inextricable ties to the Demon Palace.

Ten Thousand Demon Mountain, for instance, was merely a faction that the Demon Palace had propped up.

And there was more than one demonic faction like Ten Thousand Demon Mountain in the Liang Kingdom.

From what Xu Tian said, he learned there were at least three or four other factions similar to Ten Thousand Demon Mountain.

’Could this Demon Palace be connected to the Demon Alliance?’

The thought flashed through Fang Xing’s mind.

’Demon Alliance... Demon Palace!’

From Xu Tian, he got a clearer picture of the Demon Palace’s might—the entire faction had a full nine Demon Saints.

These were top-tier demonic titans, putting them nearly on par with the Demon Alliance.

And besides the powerful Demon Palace, there were also the forces of the Evil Cults.
