Yellow Court Daoist

Lu Qingfeng muttered to himself.

Of course, this is only the case in front of the Yellow Wind Great Saint. Back in the Earth Immortal World, or even within the Thunder Department, Marshal Zhang held a highly respected position, far incomparable to the Divine Souls he had encountered in the Changqing Realm.

"Speaking of which."

"My position as the 'Capturing God General' is indeed equivalent to the 'Yang Realm Soul Searching General' of the Soul Searching Ancestor."

Thinking of this, Lu Qingfeng couldn't help but smile.

Back in the Changqing Realm, his cultivation was only at the Core Formation Realm. Faced with the Immortal God-like figure of the Soul Searching Ancestor, he could only look up in admiration. Who would have thought that as time changed, he now served in the same department as a deity, becoming colleagues of the same rank.

"When there's time, I really should meet with old friends."

More than one hundred thousand years had passed, and he didn't know whether those fellow disciples from the Soul Searching Temple and the Reincarnated True Immortals from Changqing Realm were still alive. If they were, they must have reached the True Immortal Realm by now.

Perhaps they would meet in the future.

"Ten thousand Heavenly Soldiers?"

"Too few."

While thinking, suddenly he heard the Green Fox Great Saint speaking next to him; Lu Qingfeng looked towards his second brother, only to hear him say, "Over the years, I've trained quite a number of demon soldiers in Green Fox Cave. As my younger brother takes up his new position, he must not lack prestige. We should gather a hundred thousand demon soldiers to prevent being underestimated by those Immortal Gods."

Yellow Wind Great Saint possesses extraordinary divine power, proficient in Sanmei Divine Wind which could be used for both group attacks and solo battles, fearing none.

Thus, he managed the Yellow Wind Ridge quite casually, with only a few thousand minor demons under his command.

But after the Green Fox Great Saint's arrival, bored and fond of prestige, he rallied the major and minor demons of the eight hundred mountains of the Yellow Wind Ridge, selecting the best among them, and trained hundreds of thousands of demon soldiers.

The sight was astonishing.

However, in essence, they were disorganized, merely scattered fighters. Against the Thunder Department's Heavenly Soldiers, they would likely be routed by merely tens of thousands of Heavenly Soldiers.

"..."

Seeing his second brother's enthusiasm, Lu Qingfeng found it hard to refuse.

Yellow Wind Great Saint chided from the side, "Nonsense. The rules of the Thunder Department are strict, and the military ranks are fixed. Bringing a hundred thousand demon soldiers, what kind of protocol would that be?"

Listening, Green Fox Great Saint seemed disheartened and glanced at Lu Qingfeng, muttering, "These Immortal Gods' rules are excessive, my third brother may suffer there."

Yellow Wind Great Saint shook his head, ignoring Green Fox Great Saint, and turning to Lu Qingfeng, he said, "Heavenly Court holds authority over heaven and earth, and Heavenly Soldiers and Generals all have positions with power. Your General Mansion also has the Celestial Cycle Stars hanging high, Star Power and Sun and Moon Essence pouring down, comparable to the top Spirit Land of Immortal Mountains, an excellent place for cultivation. Just spread the word, and recruiting five thousand Heavenly Soldiers wouldn't be hard. However, elites are rare, and tasks at the Capturing God General Mansion are strenuous and dangerous. You cannot bring a hundred thousand demon soldiers, but your second brother's Green Fox Cave has several strong major demons. Choose three to five, and you'll have capable hands."

In the vast Yellow Wind Ridge.

Demons were numerous.

Although only Yellow Wind Great Saint and Green Fox Great Saint were extraordinary beings who transcended the Three Realms and Five Elements, there were many major demons whose strength were comparable to True Immortals. Moreover, demons often held Secret Techniques in their possession; although their cultivation was slow, their lifespans were long.

They were quite useful.

"Right, right, right."

Once the Yellow Wind Great Saint said this, Green Fox Great Saint also nodded eagerly, saying energetically, "In my Green Fox Cave, there are thirty-six Demon Commanders and seventy-two Demon Generals, all of them top-notch and mighty. Third brother, just pick casually. Also, for weapons, armors, provisions, and logistic supplies, feel free to take as much as you need."

"Thank you, elder brother, and second brother."

Lu Qingfeng hurriedly expressed his gratitude.

This indeed solved his urgent need. As his elder brother said, it was easy to recruit soldiers, but hard to find experts. Since these Demon Commanders and Generals from Green Fox Cave were favored by Green Fox Great Saint, they must be highly skilled and also arrogant. But as one of the Three Great Kings of Yellow Wind Ridge, he could easily command them.

For a moment.

Lu Qingfeng felt as if he had returned to his days in Min River. At that time, as the Min River Dragon Son-in-law and Yuan Lake Water Lord, though backed by Min River, he lacked neither resources nor experts.

Now even more so.

Yellow Wind Ridge and Yellow Wind Great Saint surpassed Ao Zhan and Min River Dragon Palace by far.

After talking and drinking with his elder brother and second brother for three days, Lu Qingfeng followed his second brother to Green Fox Cave, where he picked five top-notch major demons from the thirty-six Demon Commanders. He also emptied a full ten storage depots of provisions and logistic supplies before departing.

Before he left.

Lu Qingfeng found his two brothers and left behind a Jade Gold Saber.

"Golden Saber Soul Slaughter Method?"

Holding the palm-sized Jade Gold Saber, Green Fox Great Saint's face showed a look of surprise, "Third brother has such great fortune. To obtain such a wonderful method in the Lower Realm."

He grasped the saber, carefully pondering over it; after a long while, he shook his head, saying, "It's a pity this method is profound and obscure; I cannot comprehend it. I haven't even mastered the essence of the Mountain and Earth Breaking Skill, so I'll stop puzzling over it."

Green Fox Great Saint was about to hand the Jade Gold Saber to Yellow Wind Great Saint, but paused, as if he thought of something. His eyes then lit up, and he said, "Elder brother's 'Sanmei Divine Wind' has already reached the Transformation Realm. This Golden Saber Soul Slaughter Method can slay the Divine Soul and sever the spirit. If someone were to present the Wind Stabilizing Treasure, and elder brother uses the Golden Saber Soul Slaughter Method to sever it, wouldn't that be—"

Wouldn't that mean no more rivals?!

Excited, Green Fox Great Saint's face turned flushed with excitement.

"This method—"

"Is indeed wondrous."

Yellow Wind Great Saint took the Jade Gold Saber, his gaze drifting outside Yellow Wind Ridge, and as he spoke, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
