Chapter 472: Discourse
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Beginning of the 16th Year of Zhao Ming.
Shi Longtu led a huge army of 300,000 soldiers and charged towards Jape Capital City.
Flags were raised and there were lots of humans and horses. Their camp was set up and it was sprawling like large pieces of white clouds.
"So... unimaginable!"
Amongst the group of dream masters, Ruan Junxian was donned in Baize Mountain’s uniform. As he looked towards the majestic capital, he still felt rather unbelievable.
Although he knew dream masters were very strong, he never knew that once the 5 Grand Organisations joined hands, changing the world was in the palm of their hands.
In just a few years, the Imperial Court, which used to be insurmountable in the eyes of the Ruan family, was about to collapse?
As Ruan Junxian thought about the few cities along the way that surrendered without putting up a fight, he felt that it would not be surprising even if Emperor Zhao Ming were to come out and surrender right now.
Such a dumbfounded and unrealistic feeling Ruan Juanxian was currently feeling was the same feeling he felt when he saw how his enemy absurdly rose through the ranks.
’Fang Yuan!’
As Ruan Junxian quietly muttered his enemy’s name, this man who cast a great shadow over his family and sect had already suddenly broken through to become a True Divine!
Last time, this man bullied the weak as a dream master, but now, he had already become a powerful martial artist.
Whereas, Ruan Junxian himself had lost his confidence and took on the path of a dream master instead. It was as though they were on a crossroad and the two of them took the opposite paths.
Now, one of them was famous and renowned while the other was unknown and unheard of. Who could understand his torment?
When Ruan Junxian first met Fang Yuan in the army, he had to pay respects to him as a lower ranked soldier and he felt like killing himself doing so.
Now, he was already numb.
"Such a big shot... I guess to him, I’m already invisible?"
Ruan Junxian gazed at the lofty city walls and felt rather uneasy.
If the Imperial Court did not surrender, the attack on Jade Capital would not be so easy.
The Hidden Dragon Guards’ strength was still considerable, while the Imperial Court and royal family were still as unpredictable as ever. Even if Ruan Junxian’s master was here, he might still die in this war! Whereas for Ruan Junxian, he would merely be an ant and was only slightly stronger than a normal soldier!
Although a dream-building master was like a god in the eyes of normal soldiers, he was still a mere ant in the eyes of those powerful beings.
As Ruan Junxian thought, he suddenly felt a prestigious presence flash pass him and he immediately bowed, "Another powerful being has come over!"
"The siege of Jade Capital City is the last battle! Even the Sage himself have to personally take part! What’s there to be surprised of?"
Whereas, a Baize Mountain senior beside him felt unamused.
"You’re right, senior!"
Ruan Junxian had to reply with a smile and as he was about to suck up to the senior, that senior saw someone and immediately pressed his head, "Quickly bow, another powerful being is passing by!"
Ruan Junxian lowered his head drearily and took a quick glance with his eyes. All the blood in his body almost flowed backwards at once when he saw this person.
In front of him, Fang Yuan casually walked by him. Fang Yuan’s face was calm and he seemed to be thinking about something.
After his back view was finally completely gone, the Baize Mountain senior finally relaxed himself, "Be more alert next time when you are patrolling outside! Other True Divines might not matter, but this person is Realm Alliance’s number one genius, he might be a 7th Tier Illusionary Divine dream master in the future."
"That was... that was..."
Ruan Junxian smiled along, but secretly, he was clenching his fists.
...
"That soldier just now..."
Fang Yuan returned to his tent and thought, "I’ve seen him before... Oh, it’s him! Ruan family’s Ruan Junxian, I can’t believe this kid has taken on the path of a dream master."
In actual fact, Ruan Junxian was from a small family and did not have much fate with him. He was indeed invisible in Fang Yuan’s eyes.
Unless Ruan Junxian opened his cheats!
"Unfortunately, he is still only a dream-building master! Even if he is a Fate Soul, he has already missed the right timing!"
Fang Yuan shook his head. He then strode out of the military camp and arrived on a mountain.
Deep within the dense forest, Fang Yuan suddenly dug out the core of a tree and retrieved an emerald-green coloured piece of leaf.
"Woong! Woong!"
After dream elemental force surged into the leaf, the leaf immediately radiated with a vibrant glow before it transformed into the silhouette of a person, "Where have you been, I was waiting so anxiously for you!"
"Better to be safe than sorry!"
Fang Yuan was covered in mist and his voice was changed too, "Jade Capital is about to be sieged and you all have the mood to look for me?"
"Things are already at this stage, we can only be loyal to the country!"
Mu Hezi was back to his usual bearing as he sounded resolute and decisive, "Previously, Demon Killing Divine Pen Li Qingmian wanted to personally hunt you down, Head and I were so nervous for you! Luckily, the heavens help the good!"
"Source Seeking Sect... hehe..."
Fang Yuan snickered. He knew that his master hatred for Source Seeking Sect was as deep as the sea, and this had to be settled once and for all sooner or later.
"Okay, since you are willing to contact us, looks like you have made the choice to side with the Imperial Court!"
Mu Hezi’s expression appeared rather unwilling, "As per Head’s request, I am granting you the rights to Hidden Dragon Mountain!"
Hidden Dragon Mountain was the headquarters of the Hidden Dragon Guards and was very renowned; even Fang Yuan had heard about it before. When Fang Yuan heard that, an extremely interested expression immediately appeared on his face, "I heard the location of this mountain is a top secret of the Hidden Dragon Guards... Wait a minute... rights?"
Fang Yuan’s expression changed at once.
"Haha... you are smart indeed. I already passed the key to Hidden Dragon Mountain to you last time, just that it was not recognised by us and you could not enter the mountain yet."
Mu Hezi chuckled and immediately cast a magical formula.
On the leaf, numerous golden runes appeared. They were like a chain which formed a certain core.
A summoning appeared faintly. Fang Yuan was very familiar with it.
"It’s a spiritual space similar to the Dream Realm!"
Fang Yuan came to a sudden realisation, "Turns out the so-called Hidden Dragon Mountain is like the Dream Realm, it doesn’t even exist."
"Haha... that’s right! Although Kun beasts are extremely rare, but with Da Qian’s wealth, how could we not find one?"
Mu Hezi laughed. His illusory silhouette then dispersed at once, "Our Head has been waiting for you for very long."
"That’s unexpected..."
The dense forest was silent once again. Fang Yuan looked at the golden green leaf on his hand and suddenly smiled, "Well, that’s good too. Even if sages made their moves in Dream Realm, it would not damage the foundation."
Fang Yuan stopped for a while. His entire body then sunk and buried into the ground and he disappeared.
Immediately, a layer of soil appeared along with some grass and wildflowers. The two sides combined and covered the traces on the ground perfectly at once.
...
This was a mountain, an extremely vast and imposing mountain that was multiple times larger than Dream Realm’s Realm Alliance Mountain.
On the two sides of the foot of the mountain, there was a dragon statue and a tiger statue. The statues were lofty and mighty looking, even their bodies were modified and had all sorts of buildings and passages.
"Hidden Dragon Mountain?"
Fang Yuan’s figure appeared. His body was still in a misty white state as he stood on top of the dragon peak with his hands behind him.
"That’s right!"
Space trembled and the Head of Hidden Dragon Guards’ figure slowly emerged from it. He looked towards Fang Yuan with a gentle gaze as though he was a senior who just met his long lost junior, "Those days... I was so close with Master Heartless. We travelled together, drank together, talked together..."
Fang Yuan carefully scrutinised this Head of Hidden Dragon Guards.
Even though it was just a magical clone of his thoughts, its body’s spiritual aura was still astounding. It was as though he was the entire sky! The entire land!
As the Head of Hidden Dragon Guards spoke continuously, it was as though he was very nostalgic. He then said to Fang Yuan, "You chose the Imperial Court, very good! You will not regret your choice in the future and you will even benefit tremendously from it."
’Something’s not right!’
After Fang Yuan listened to what he said, an alarming thought appeared in his mind, ’The Head of Hidden Dragon Guards has not given up, what kind of cards is the Imperial Court still hiding up their sleeves?"
In actual fact, Fang Yuan also felt that it was really unexplainable how the Imperial Court was so badly defeated.
After all, they were the ruler of the world. Furthermore, their existence was supported by the heavenly will!
Such a colossal Da Qian Imperial Court would be an eternal dynasty with perpetual stability if there were no dream masters! How could they fall like a sand castle and immediately crumble under the attack of a finger?
"Oh? From what I know, Shi Longtu still could not achieve victory in the siege of Jade Capital after a long battle. He’s already burning incense and praying to invite the 5 Sages to advent. I wonder how would you react to it?"
Fang Yuan’s eyes gleamed and he asked suddenly.
"This is the Imperial Court’s top secret!’
The Head of Hidden Dragon Guards’ face turned solemn.
Just now, his voice was gentle, but with his solemn expression now, an imposing might immediately appeared. It was as though the surroundings had turned into a battlefield, "For such top secrets, the fewer who know, the better! If they are people like you who cover up their original identity, they must be after something!"
"I have too many enemies, I had to do it to be safe than sorry!"
Fang Yuan had a thought, he knew that there were still too little 7th Tier Illusionary Divine dream masters in this world.
As Fang Yuan suddenly appeared, it was too suspicious. Furthermore, as he was too shady, he most likely had a well known true identity.
With these suspicions and with Imperial Court’s strength, they could quickly find out who he was!
Of course, Fang Yuan was not intending to hide his identity for so long. As long as he survived this war and the world had reshuffled, there was nothing wrong even if he had two identities!
"I heard you killed Source Seeking Sect’s Feng Buer and asked for rewards from Mu Hezi?"
The Head of Hidden Dragon Guards did not go on about Fang Yuan’s identity and asked him about another area.
"One has to be fully prepared, isn’t that normal?"
Fang Yuan shrugged.
"If you were part of my Hidden Dragon Guards, you would immediately be rewarded accordingly..."
The Head of Hidden Dragon Guards seemed to be in a difficult spot, "I wonder if you are interested?"
"Last time, my master’s name was tarnished and protecting him would be declaring war against the 5 Grand Organisations. Thus, he was given up on... Now, the two sides are already at war, but this matter is just thrown aside?"
Fang Yuan laughed and continued, "Unfortunately... I am not!"
"Sure enough, you still have resentment inside your heart!"
The Head of Hidden Dragon Guards sighed and did not say much. He then threw out two crystals, "These two Realm Elemental Crystals shall serve as compensation."
"Realm Elemental Crystals?"
Fang Yuan received the crystals. The power of the crystals was very similar to the natural sources he harvested from realms.
"The heavens have energy and the realms have natural sources. We explore numerous realms and reap these..."
The Head of Hidden Dragon Guards smiled, "This is my personal collection. They are your rewards for killing Feng Buer, they should be sufficient."
