Chapter 5149: Reporting BackEditor: Misty Cloud Translations

The others immediately rose to their feet as well, clasping their hands in a bow and declaring, "We await Young Master Du’s commands."

"Very well." Du Fan wore a satisfied expression as he gestured, "Please, take your seats. I have a matter to discuss with you all."

Thus, within the grand hall, over a dozen Monarchs listened intently as Du Fan laid out his instructions. Once they fully understood the matter, they did not linger but departed first.

After they departed, the two cultivators accompanying Du Fan exchanged glances. One asked, "Young Master, should we deal with those four Monarchs..." He made a gesture implying elimination, but upon catching Du Fan’s faintly disapproving glance, his heart sank. He instinctively lowered his head and took a step back.

"Attend to your duties. I shall handle the rest." Du Fan stated coolly.

"Yes, sir." The two responded, daring not to speak further.

Within three months of Du Fan, Leng Hua, Gray Wolf and Shadow One taking charge of these three territories, everything returned to normal and stabilized.

The speed astonished powerful figures across the land, especially since a major event had occurred within Du Fan’s jurisdiction—one that sent shockwaves through the realm’s Monarchs.

"Have you heard? That man named Du Fan, under the Phoenix Empress’s command, single-handedly slaughtered four Monarchs the other day." In an inn, several cultivators huddled together, whispering the news.

Word spread like wildfire. Everyone’s heard about it. They say this Du Fan was a trusted subordinate of the Phoenix Empress. After she annihilated those three Great Emperors, she dispatched several of her men to take over and handle things. Such a vast territory, and they stabilized everything in just three months. Their methods and capabilities are truly extraordinary.

Another lowered his voice, glancing around before whispering, " I also know that the four Monarchs Du Fan executed were actually assigned to him by the Phoenix Empress for his command. But these four, relying on their status as Monarchs, were arrogant and disregarded Du Fan’s orders. At first, Du Fan didn’t act against them. But once the territory was stabilized, he made an example of them to establish his authority.

The listener frowned in surprise. "But these four were assigned by the Phoenix Empress specifically for his command. How could he dare execute them?"

"Because the Phoenix Empress had already issued orders granting Du Fan full authority over the domain. He didn’t even need to report the killings to her."

Another person chimed in, adding, "I hear the individuals now taking over for those three Great Emperors are all top-tier figures from the Phoenix Empress’ inner circle. Though I wonder where they suddenly came from—never heard of such people before."

Meanwhile, the eight monarchs on the Immortal Island—Gray Wolf, Shadow One, and Leng Hua among them—felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing the news.

They hadn’t expected those four to die so abruptly, and by the hand of Du Fan alone. In that moment, they couldn’t help but feel fortunate they hadn’t made the same foolish mistakes as those four.

While discussions about the incident spread across the realms, Du Fan, the central figure in the events, had already returned to Feng Jiu’s Immortal Island to report on the past three months.

"Master, this is how it unfolded," Du Fan summarized the events of the past three months, including his killing of the four Monarchs.

Feng Jiu and Mo Chen were playing chess in the pavilion. Hearing Du Fan’s report, Feng Jiu smiled. "I understand."
