Inside a base of the Hegemon Country, upon hearing the related news, the person in charge of the base slammed the table furiously.

"How is this possible? How can he be so formidable? Not only did we fail to kill him, but we also suffered heavy losses? Even Immortal Gu Dao was defeated by him? Destroyed by him? How can he be so ruthless? Damn it!"

"Ah! Without Immortal Gu Dao, what advantage do we have left? Will the other forces even pay attention to us? Damn it! Damn Easterners, truly damned!"

While furiously yelling, he smashed the table, completely wrecking the conference hall.

Yet, this did not quell the anger in his heart. Seeing his ferocious demeanor, it seemed as if he wouldn’t be appeased until he had Ye Feng torn to pieces.

"Alas! Who would’ve thought he’d be so powerful? Actually possess the strength of an Immortal? He’s so young, how has he achieved such cultivation?"

"Alas! Now we’ve completely antagonized him, how can we resolve this conflict? Who can bear the consequences?"

"Now, surely everyone is laughing at us. If we can’t deal with him, our fate will certainly be terrible, as he definitely won’t spare us easily."

"But! An Immortal Realm expert, moreover one who defeated two Immortal Realm masters, what can we use to deal with him? Our heads?"

....

As for the other higher-ups, upon hearing this news, besides being furious, they also looked troubled.

What they were concerned about wasn’t how to face the previous news, but rather the impending troubles.

They were very clear in their hearts that Ye Feng certainly wouldn’t let this go, and Ye Feng possesses Immortal Realm strength. If Ye Feng really comes for revenge, how could they possibly fend off Ye Feng’s wrath?

If it were ordinary people, they might not take it seriously, but Ye Feng is an Immortal Realm expert! Furthermore, a master among Immortal Realm experts.

Even against ordinary Immortal Realm experts, they lack the strength to contend, much less against a master like Ye Feng within the Immortal Realm.

This made them very distressed, very troubled.

"What should we do now? Do we really have to ask for peace with him? We absolutely cannot let this matter drop." Hearing these discussions, the lead commander asked furiously, with a very displeased face.

Indeed, even if Ye Feng is truly terrifying, and should never be provoked, yet he still wouldn’t seek peace, absolutely wouldn’t let Ye Feng off so easily.

As long as there’s a chance, they would certainly try to kill Ye Feng.

"Alas! We underestimated Ye Feng’s strength. Who would’ve thought he’s a cultivator, and so powerful."

"We’re not a match for him, but we definitely won’t let him be so arrogant. We’ve been the commander for so long, if we lack even this bit of backbone, then what are we even talking about?"

....

Hearing the commander’s words, others resolutely responded.

Clearly, they shared the same thought, even if not able to match Ye Feng, they definitely won’t easily let it go.

"Right, we can pretend to seek peace, satisfy all his demands, and then lure him into our trap and hunt him down."

"That’s right, this is a good idea. Though our strength doesn’t compare to his, our high-tech isn’t just for show. Let’s lure him into our trap and then use high-tech to obliterate him."

....

Amidst the crowd’s anxiety, someone proposed a plan.

Upon hearing this plan, everyone immediately brightened up, feeling it to be a very good, feasible plan.

"Indeed! Let’s do this. If he dares to come, we’ll make sure he can’t leave." Hearing this plan, the leading commander nodded excitedly, immediately agreeing.

Thus, upon their deliberations, they arranged the matters, beginning to systematically set up against Ye Feng.

At the same time, they were impatiently waiting for Ye Feng to come. In their view, as long as Ye Feng dares to appear, they’re confident in keeping him here permanently.

....

For a moment, except for the Hegemon Country, other forces were contemplating how to seek Ye Feng’s forgiveness, how to make Ye Feng spare them.

Yet, only the Hegemon Country, while ostensibly seeking peace, seemingly agreeing with Ye Feng, was secretly eager to kill Ye Feng.

....

As time passed, these messages not only caused an uproar among the major forces but also amongst various families and the secular realm.

In a certain manor in Raleigh Country, a group of cultivators was gathered. Suddenly, a young cultivator seeing some news jumped up in surprise.

"What’s wrong with you?" Seeing this scene, others asked, puzzled.

"This is big! Do you know what major event happened in the Cultivation Realm?" Hearing the query, the young cultivator asked excitedly.

"Spit it out, or I’ll throw you out if you keep babbling!" Seeing the young cultivator still stalling, the manor’s owner threatened, somewhat exasperated.

"I’ll tell! I’ll tell! Happy now?" Hearing this, the young cultivator finally complied and answered truthfully: "Do you know the enormously wealthy Boss Ye? The one who founded Celestial Life, Celestial Beauty, and Celestial Medicine."

"Yes, I know him! It’s said his wealth can no longer be described as terrifying, it’s said only ’astonishing’ can describe it, hailed as the supreme ruler of the secular realm. What’s up? What does he have to do with this?" One person answered curiously.

"It’s highly related." After the response, the young cultivator excitedly narrated: "You know, just recently, various major forces from different countries sent numerous experts to capture Ye Feng in order to obtain the techniques of Celestial Medicine, Celestial Life, and Celestial Medicine."

"And guess what happened?"

"What happened? Did Ye Feng get captured by one of the forces?" Hearing this, others asked very curiously.

Meanwhile, they felt a bit sympathetic towards Ye Feng.

However, they understood deep down that this world is inherently cruel. Even if you’re very strong in the secular realm, in the Cultivation Realm you’d be insignificant, and the leaders of the Cultivation Realm could kill you as easily as squashing an ant.

Hence, without hearing the rest of the news, they prematurely sentenced Ye Feng to death.

The young cultivator shook his head and continued: "No... no... no... Who would’ve thought Ye Feng is also a cultivator, and incredibly powerful. Under siege by various forces, he fought so fiercely that the others dared not act rashly."

"And, did you know? Even the top masters of various countries couldn’t do anything against him, easily killed by him, and even the top masters were not qualified to make him act."

Hearing this, all the cultivators present fell silent, utterly stunned, displaying expressions of disbelief....
