Chapter 117: The Hunyuan Sect Master Mobilizes, Chu Feng Leads Troops to Conquer the Xiongnu

"What!"

"Junior Brother Wu Yun's soul lamp has actually extinguished?"

Wulie Daoren, who had just finished his seclusion, had not even had time to take a sip of water before he turned his head and received such a shocking piece of news.

His own junior brother had actually been killed again.

"This is impossible. Junior Brother Wu Yun went there carrying the Dragon Spine Treasure Sword; slaying a Martial Venerable-level powerhouse should have been a simple matter!"

"Sect Master, Senior Brother, do you think it could be that a Martial Saint of Great Wei made a move?"

"Is there any need to doubt that? It must be certain, otherwise how could Junior Brother Wu Yun have fallen?"

"Heh!"

Wulie Daoren sneered, "A mere Great Wei dares to challenge our Hunyuan Sect; they truly overestimate themselves. Pass down the order: I will personally go to Great Wei to settle this with them!"

"Report!"

Just at this moment.

A disciple suddenly walked forward to report, "Reporting to the Sect Master, Junior Uncle Wu Qi has returned."

"What, Wu Qi? He didn't die?"

The crowd was greatly shocked.

Wulie, a Martial Venerable holding a Dharma Artifact, had already perished.

How could he, a mere Grandmaster, still be alive?

"Let him in!"

"Yes!"

Before long.

Wuqi Daoren walked into the main hall.

"Greetings to the Sect Master and all Senior Brothers!"

"Wu Qi, what exactly happened? How exactly did Wu Yun die?"

"Reporting to the Sect Master, Senior Brother, Senior Brother Wu Yun was killed by that Chu Feng!"

"What!"

The crowd was shocked once again.

This news was simply like a fantasy.

According to the information they understood, Chu Feng was at most at the Martial Venerable Great Perfection.

For Wu Yun, holding the Dragon Spine Treasure Sword, to kill him—even if it wasn't easy and pleasant—

it was absolutely impossible for him to have fallen.

Yet the eyewitness told them that Junior Brother Wu Yun had indeed been slaughtered by that person.

"This... how is this possible? Is that brat a monster?"

Wulie still could not accept this situation.

He would rather believe that Wu Yun had been slain by a Great Wei Martial Saint.

He absolutely would not believe he had been wiped out by Chu Feng.

If this were truly the case, then this young man was simply too terrifying.

Such a young talent, if one cannot befriend him, one must absolutely not make an enemy of him.

Otherwise!

It would surely be an abyss of eternal damnation.

"Since that Chu Feng killed Junior Brother Wu Yun, then how did you return alive?"

Facing the questioning of the others.

Wuqi Daoren forced out some tears and said in extreme pain, "Senior Brother Wu Yun knew he was no match for the opponent, so he risked his life to cover my escape back to the sect to report the news."

"If it weren't for the fact that the news was too important, I would have followed Senior Brother Wu Yun at that time!"

Facing Wuqi Daoren's tearful complaint.

The people in the main hall also felt heartbroken.

It was indeed as Wuqi said; this news was truly very important.

If they had just run to Great Wei to demand an explanation earlier.

It would inevitably have caused quite a large disturbance.

At that time, a fierce conflict would surely have erupted.

This would be extremely disadvantageous for the Hunyuan Sect.

"Junior Brother, you've worked hard, go down and rest quickly!"

"Many thanks, Sect Master, Senior Brother!"

Wuqi Daoren cupped his hands in a salute and left the main hall.

The very instant he turned around.

The tears on Wuqi Daoren's face vanished at lightning speed.

After Wuqi Daoren left, Wulie Daoren continued to speak.

"Everyone, Wu Qi brought back important news. What are your thoughts?"

"Sect Master, Senior Brother, this child is so formidable; we must either be friends or enemies!"

"I second that. This child must not be left alive. If he is allowed to grow, he will surely become a great threat to our Hunyuan Sect!"

"......"

The remaining Elders also held their own attitudes.

The demand was that Chu Feng must be eliminated as soon as possible.

Otherwise!

It would surely endanger the safety of the Hunyuan Sect.

"Since that is the case, I shall lead the team myself this time; the threat must be nipped in the bud!"

The scene shifted.

Anwu Prefecture.

"As of now, besides being the Champion Marquis and Eastern Pacification General, the Empress has also granted me the authority of Regional Commander over the three regions of Yizhou, Fuzhou, and Anwu Prefecture.

Old Zhu, I still need your help to go and recruit troops here. The Empress promised to mobilize two hundred thousand troops for me, but currently, she can only allocate about one hundred and thirty thousand, so you need to recruit one hundred thousand people here.

We will set out in a few days to attack the Xiongnu!"

"Understood, leave this matter to me!"

Chu Feng turned his head to look at Xiang Yuan.

"Xiang Yuan, what is our current military equipment situation?"

"Reporting to the General, during this period we have forged another eight thousand sets of Heavy Armor and one thousand Bed Crossbows."

"The troops under my command have trained without interruption, and their morale is at its peak!"

"......"

Xiang Yuan reported the situation in Anwu Prefecture one by one.

During the time Chu Feng was away.

He personally supervised the work of every unit.

He even personally supervised the repair work on the city walls of Anwu Prefecture.

"Well done!"

Chu Feng patted Xiang Yuan's shoulder heavily.

With him there, he could rest easy regarding the rear.

"General, may I make a request of you?"

"Speak!"

"Can you let me accompany the main army to attack the Xiongnu this time? I really don't want to stay behind to guard the rear anymore!"

He had missed all of the successive major battles before.

It made him itch with impatience.

He was itching to immediately draw his blade, mount his horse, and head to the front lines to chop off the heads of a few foreigners.

Being left to guard the rear, while the merit was not small, was truly about to drive him crazy.

"I understand your feelings, but our troops currently still need to undergo training, and this cannot be done without your supervision!"

Xiang Yuan lowered his head in some disappointment.

He understood that his idea was surely going to fall through again this time.

"Don't worry, brother, there will be plenty of battles in the future; you won't be left out!"

Chu Feng encouraged him, "You should think about how all the efforts you make in the rear are the sharpest blades striking at the enemy!"

"General, this subordinate understands!"

"Good, all other units are to perform their respective duties. When the troops are fully trained, we will set out to conquer the Xiongnu!"

"As you command!"

One month later.

The reinforcements the Empress promised to add for Chu Feng had arrived one after another.

Because of some other circumstances, the troops were not fully equipped for Chu Feng, so he could only resolve it locally himself.

Soon.

Good news also came from Zhu Kang's side.

One month's time.

One hundred thousand troops had all been recruited.

And he had also recruited three experts of the Innate Realm for Chu Feng.

Added to the reinforcements sent this time.

The number of Innate Realm experts in Chu Feng's hands had reached as many as thirty.

Another period of time passed.

The troops under his command were fully prepared.

The newly recruited soldiers had also received sufficient training.

The day before the army set out.

Chu Feng summoned all the generals under his command.

"Tomorrow, the army will set out to conquer the Xiongnu. I have already contacted General Zhao to have him coordinate and cooperate with me in battle."

"Xiang Yuan, Qiu Ming, Lu Peng!"

"This subordinate is here!"

"The three of you are to take thirty thousand troops to garrison Anwu Prefecture. Anwu Prefecture has just been settled and is in urgent need of development and stability. You three are responsible for staying behind to arrange training and development; there must be no mistakes!"

"As you command!"

Although they were dissatisfied about not being able to go to the front lines, what Chu Feng entrusted to them was indeed an important task.

Anwu Prefecture would be an important starting point for them to gallop across the world in the future.

"All other units, return immediately to reorganize your troops. Tomorrow morning, the army sets out to conquer the Xiongnu!"

"As you command!"

Hehe!

My Killing Points have already hit rock bottom.

You experience packs of the Xiongnu, are you ready?

Chu Feng licked the corner of his mouth and thought to himself.
