Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law Chapter 479 - 476: Xuanyuan Hall, the Domain of the Mighty!
An hour later, Ye Feng arrived at the Utility Pavilion from the Northern Cloud Residence!
It was truly embarrassing to say, though the common folk of Xuanyuan Nation were saying that Northern King Ye Feng, or Martial Academy Principal Ye Feng, had beco the most influential person in the nation, even having full control over the entire Utility Pavilion, he had not visited the Utility Pavilion since returning from the Buddhist Sect.
He had heard the rumors about Tang Bai's resignation, but Ye Feng had made no comnt on it. After all, since the other party had already stepped down voluntarily, he couldn't very well kick a man when he's down. His heart was not so narrow. Although Tang Bai had resigned, the Utility Pavilion had not undergone any major changes; everything was running smoothly in accordance with the original order.
Only after Ye Feng ascended to the highest floor of the Utility Pavilion did he realize that not only was Zhuge Wuming present, but several Sect Leaders were there too. This indicated that Zhuge Wuming had not just invited him alone, and it seed that today's matter didn't concern the Outer Battlefield; it was very likely that sothing significant had occurred.
"Northern King Ye Feng has arrived!" As soon as Ye Feng reached the top, the guard imdiately shouted.
When Ye Feng walked in, several Sect Leaders, including the Grand Sect Leader, all stood up, turned around, and greeted with hands clasped, "Northern King!"
Even though Ye Feng still held the identity of the Northern King, his status in the Utility Pavilion had changed dramatically. Even Zhuge Wuming stood up at this ti to show the proper respect.
Ye Feng, naturally, did not put on airs. In fact, he had never thought to monopolize the Utility Pavilion. Everything he did, though seemingly domineering, was ultimately for the common people of the nation.
"Greetings to the distinguished Sect Leaders, greetings to Lord Zhuge!" Ye Feng returned the gesture with a salute, showing not the slightest hint of arrogance.
The Sect Leaders were taken aback by Ye Feng's actions, seemingly surprised that Ye Feng would still pay them respect and even address them as Lords. However, they quickly regained their composure, and the weight pressing on their hearts finally eased.
The Northern King was still the sa Northern King. Although he was extrely strong and domineering towards the Nine Great Sects of Ancient Martial Arts, he still maintained the proper courtesies toward his own, and to the Sect Leaders, this was enough. After all, they were of an advanced age, and their Cultivation Realms had reached a plateau where further progress was unlikely. As long as Ye Feng did not target them and let them live peacefully in their current positions to enjoy their later years, it was a cause for universal rejoicing.
In fact, Ye Feng understood this more clearly than anyone. He knew these old fellows valued their face above all. Since they cared so much for face, he thought, why not lower his own stance slightly to give them this respect? It would stabilize the Utility Pavilion and unite the nation, which was more important than anything else.
"Lord Zhuge, may I know why you have summoned here today?" Ye Feng inquired.
Zhuge Wuming waved his hand and said, "Co, take a seat first before we talk." With this, he pointed to a vacant place, which was the very spot where Tang Bai had previously sat.
Ye Feng did not hesitate, and directly went over to sit down. The Sect Leaders looked at each other but said nothing, for with Ye Feng's status and strength, he was fully qualified to sit there. The atmosphere remained pleasant as the group started chattering about everyday matters.
Ye Feng took the opportunity to ask Grand Sect Leader Zhao Gongming, "Grand Sect Leader, has there been any news of Zhang Wenyuan during this ti?"
Zhao Gongming shook his head and said, "Not at all, that fellow hasn't co back since he entered the Outer Battlefield."
At this point, Zhao Gongming let out a long sigh and said, "I told him at the ti, the Outer Battlefield is incredibly dangerous, and he shouldn't go there alone. Even if he did go, he must be part of a team, but that young man's temperant is unstoppable."
Ye Feng said, "Zhang Wenyuan is a man of great fortune; I believe he will be fine."
"I hope so," sighed Zhao Gongming.
Zhuge Wuming, seeing that the mood was right, waved his hand for silence and then said, "Today, I have summoned everyone here for two important matters concerning the safety and security of our Xuanyuan Nation. One of them is about the Outer Battlefield, which Ye Feng just ntioned."
Everyone had expected this, so there was no surprise, since the proposal to enter the Outer Battlefield had been made several months before, but had been delayed due to a series of unforeseen events since then.
However, during these months, Ye Feng had learned from nurous pieces of intelligence that many had already entered the Outer Battlefield, including individuals from the Four Great Ancient Clans.
Grand Sect Leader Zhao Gongming asked, "Lord Zhuge, according to the agreent made between the countries and powers, to ensure long-term stability in the Outer Battlefield, it was finally decided that only those at the Cultivation Realm of the Martial King should enter. But now, forces from various quarters, including two Sword Saints from Fusang and several Saint Heirs, and even the powerful from Snow Wolf Country, have all rushed in."
Zhuge Wuming let out a slight sigh and said, "The previous agreent has basically fallen apart by now."
Then, turning to Ye Feng, he continued, "As for the specific situation of the Outer Battlefield, I'm sure Ye Feng is not very clear, so let start by giving so necessary introductions."
Ye Feng nodded slightly; this was exactly what he had hoped to hear.
Zhuge Wuming said, "This Outer Battlefield, as the na implies, is beyond our domain and does not belong to our world. To put it accurately, the two do not share the sa space-ti."
Ye Feng furrowed his brows and asked, "May I venture to ask Lord Zhuge, could this Outer Battlefield be the sa as the Alien Space-Ti?"
Zhuge Wuming replied, "It can be said so, but it cannot be completely characterized as such."
Ye Feng's frown deepened, and Zhuge Wuming continued to explain, "The Alien Space-Ti has already been entered by people long before. It is a vast and boundless world, a truly mature and stable spatial world, many tis larger than the world we live in, and of course, the creatures there are much more powerful than us."
"And this Outer Battlefield?" Ye Feng asked.
"The Outer Battlefield is, in fact, a secondary Alien Space. It is not very large, and its space-ti is not fully developed and stable, making it very prone to collapse. This is why the previous world's Great Powers reached an agreent, stipulating that only those with the Cultivation Realm of the Martial King or below could enter, for fear that the Outer Battlefield might be affected and collapse."
Zhuge Wuming paused before continuing, "Furthermore, so peerless powerhouses have suggested that the Outer Battlefield might be directly connected to the world on the other side of the Alien Space-Ti. In other words, the Outer Battlefield is a buffer zone connecting our world with that Alien World. If this buffer zone collapses, it is very likely that creatures from that Alien World could directly co to ours."
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng's expression changed involuntarily, "If that is the case, why are so many great powers still vying to enter? Aren't they worried about collapsing the Outer Battlefield?"
Zhuge Wuming couldn't help but sneer, then bitterly smiled, "Who wouldn't understand this principle? However, the temptations inside are too great to resist."
At this mont, Grand Sect Leader Zhao Gongming said, "The Outer Battlefield has been opened multiple tis and searched by many. Yet, with each opening, it nurtures a large number of treasures, especially those Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that cultivators dream of. This is the main reason why Great Powers are willing to tear up the agreent and rush in now."
Ye Feng nodded slightly, suddenly thinking of a key point, he then asked, "I'm afraid there's another important reason why the Great Powers are rushing in."
Grand Sect Leader Zhao Gongming and the other Sect Leaders all turned their heads to look at him, asking, "What is the other important reason?"
Ye Feng smiled slightly, "Surely everyone is aware that half a year ago, the incident in Fallen Dragon Valley occurred, and the so-called Miasma ca from the Alien World on the other side of the Space-Ti. This ans that the worlds are no longer absolutely secure. The upper echelons are now aware that it won't take much ti before the Alien Space-Ti creatures break through the space-ti barrier and invade our side, so it's understandable that everyone is worried. To protect themselves and enhance their own strengths to the utmost, they are ignoring the agreent and rushing into the Outer Battlefield in search of opportunities."
"Indeed, Ye Feng's analysis is logical and well-founded, and that's also one of the very important reasons," Zhuge Wuming nodded in agreent.
Ye Feng couldn't help but bitterly smile, "However, unfortunately, as more and more powerhouses enter the Outer Battlefield, and considering that the space is not mature and stable, once a big battle ensues, it may cause a collapse, which in turn accelerates the invasion of the creatures from the Alien Space-Ti into our world."
On hearing this, Zhuge Wuming sighed deeply, and the other Sect Leaders were solemnly silent. Naturally, they all understood this point, but although an agreent had been reached earlier, it was rely a formality. Now with various powers breaching it, they could do nothing about it.
Ye Feng frowned and spoke gravely, "Since the major forces of the world have already entered, we cannot fall behind, or we will inevitably be in a passive situation in the future."
Zhuge Wuming nodded and said, "Exactly, I've summoned everyone here today to discuss our entry into the Outer Battlefield. We cannot delay any longer. Of course, so of the great powers from our Xuanyuan Nation have already entered, and have even established a power within."
"Already established a power inside? What power, and how many people are there?" Ye Feng couldn't help but ask.
Zhuge Wuming smiled slightly, "They've been there since two hundred years ago. I'm not quite sure of the exact number, but suffice it to say, those who entered have no low talent. With all kinds of incredible treasures contained within the Outer Battlefield, those who have managed to survive thus far have beco terrifyingly powerful."
Saying this, Zhuge Wuming looked up slightly, his gaze piercing through the window to the distant sky horizon, then spoke with envy and admiration, "Our Xuanyuan Nation's power is called the Xuanyuan Hall!"
"Xuanyuan Hall!" Ye Feng pondered silently. He realized that the mbers inside the Xuanyuan Hall of the Outer Battlefield must each be a formidable presence in terms of cultivation.
"Of course, within the Outer Battlefield, it's not just our Xuanyuan Hall, there are forces from around the world, such as Fusang's Yin-Yang Temple, and for example, Snow Wolf Country's Wizard Alliance, and so on. These forces are also incredibly powerful," Zhuge Wuming said.
Ye Feng nodded slowly, noting down these nas one by one, and then asked, "By the way, Lord Zhuge, you ntioned there were two major matters. What is the second major matter?"
Upon hearing this question, Zhuge Wuming's expression beca grave, revealing a look of solemnity.
