Ye Zhen chooses to save two comrades under attack, despite the danger. While attempting a rescue, he faces a powerful attack from the Bone Demon Lord. Ye Zhen deploys his newly crafted Earth Element Thousand Image Seal, but it is immediately threatened by the corrosive environment. He quickly uses his War Soul Blood Flag to protect the seal, allowing him to create an opening for his comrades to escape.

The Void Hunting King Yues Cang’s spatial teleportation speed was extremely fast. Ye Zhen only felt the dazzling light in front of him flicker five times in a very short period, and the light in front of him suddenly disappeared, with his feet already on solid ground.

Upon further inspection, Ye Zhen, Yues Cang, and that Hall Master Gou had already escaped the blood light field of Laiyang Fortress, appearing on a completely unfamiliar mountain peak.

Yues Cang looked around, glanced briefly, and said, "Safe now, this is already the territory of the Northern War Zone. Those demon brats couldn’t chase us even if they had the ability, not to mention they wouldn’t dare to."

"In the Northern War Zone?"

Ye Zhen felt slightly bewildered. It was only moments ago, mere breaths away, that they had traveled from Laiyang Fortress in the Southern War Zone to the Northern War Zone.

Even the closest point from the Northern War Zone to Laiyang Fortress in the Southern War Zone is over eight million miles away.

Realizing this, Ye Zhen secretly inhaled sharply, examining the Void Hunting King Yues Cang again.

The light of the spatial pathway flickering five consecutive times meant Yues Cang had teleported five times in succession.

The total distance traveled in these five spatial shifts was over eight million miles, in other words, the distance of a single teleportation by Yues Cang was at least 1.6 million miles.

Ye Zhen, familiar with the realm of the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten’s Void-Breaking Divine Power, naturally understood the difficulty and terror of such a figure!

The kitten’s Void-Breaking Divine Power, a Demon Race’s innate ability, currently only has a maximum range of eighty thousand miles per teleportation.

Yet the Void Hunting King Yues Cang’s single spatial teleportation is over 1.6 million miles, possibly even exceeding two million miles.

What kind of concept does this figure represent?

For many Dao Realm powerhouses who need years to travel from south to north on the Primordial Continent, for the Void Hunting King Yues Cang, it is merely one or two days, possibly even half a day’s effort.

To Ye Zhen’s understanding, the Heavenly Patrol Department’s Void Hunting Kings aren’t this powerful, right?

On the side, with the strong wind whistling on the mountaintop, Hall Master Gou and the Void Hunting King Yues Cang both showed expressions of having survived a disaster.

With their cultivation and experience, they’ve faced hundreds, even thousands, of life-and-death crises over the millennia.

But never once have they faced one as perilous as this.

Almost perishing with no place for burial, utterly scattering their souls!

"Young brother, in fact, you’ve saved us twice today. Initially, you risked dangers to save us, and the second time, you rescued us amidst life-and-death peril.

I will remember this kindness!

Here’s my communication talisman lead, and this set of small communication transfer formation. If there’s anything, just come find me, I will surely help as much as I can!" Hall Master Gou earnestly handed Ye Zhen a jade scroll and an array plate.

Ye Zhen accepted without pretension, "If there’s truly an issue, I will definitely bother you!"

Ye Zhen didn’t save people for reciprocation.

However, saving someone’s life like this is such a great kindness that not allowing any chance for repayment would be improper indeed.

Having received favors from others, Ye Zhen naturally understands the feeling of being indebted, especially for life-saving grace.

It’s like owing a debt; not paying it off promptly would unsettle the heart.

Seeing Ye Zhen accept, the Void Hunting King Yues Cang slapped Ye Zhen’s shoulder laughing heartily, "Young brother, don’t be polite with this old fellow!

I’ll tell you, this old fellow’s identity isn’t simple!

Ghost Soul Palace Master Gou Ruoxu from the Ancestor God Temple of Great Zhou, renowned and powerful!

Also, if something comes up, feel free to ask him for help!

Hey, you saved this old rascal’s life, preventing his beloved concubines from being under someone else’s command. Not to mention mundane matters, he’ll certainly handle them for you.

Even the impossible matters, this old rascal would go all out to handle them for you!" Though Yues Cang spoke with frivolity, his words were indeed serious.

For repaying kindness!

Ye Zhen felt slightly surprised, knowing earlier that Hall Master Gou’s identity was not simple, he didn’t expect him to be a colleague from the Ancestor God Temple.

Moreover, he’s the Temple’s mysterious Ghost Soul Hall’s master.

Hearing this, Ghost Soul Palace Master Gou Ruoxu rolled his eyes heavily at the Void Hunting King Yues Cang, "Rest assured, if you die, those new concubines of yours, I will care for them thoroughly!"

With those words, Gou Ruoxu pulled Ye Zhen’s hand, extending it before Yues Cang, "Give it."

Ye Zhen was startled by the chilly aura seeping through the hand of Ghost Soul Palace Master Gou Ruoxu.

Gou Ruoxu’s hand was very cold, chilling to the bones!

It wasn’t the bone-chilling cold from Liao Feibai’s cultivation with Ice Spirit Power; the coldness from Gou Ruoxu’s hand penetrated the bones, even reaching deep into the Primordial Spirit.

Void Hunting King Yues Cang naturally noticed Ye Zhen’s reaction, "Don’t worry, this old rascal’s hand is cold, but his heart is warm!"

Speaking, Yues Cang placed two items into Ye Zhen’s hand, these items naturally being the communication talisman lead and the small communication transfer formation.

"Young brother, keep them well!"

"This old Yues may be mixing worse than me, but at least he is the Chief Instructor of the Celestial Patrol Division of Great Zhou! Even the current Grand Celestial Official Wu Yu hailed from under his baton!

In a flash, Ye Zhen was stunned again.

Chief Instructor of the Celestial Patrol Division?

Even Grand Celestial Official Wu Yu was taught by him.

This status is not bad; it’s almost incredibly powerful.

According to this statement, the Heavenly Patrol Divine Hunters, a portion of Void Hunting Kings in the entire Patrol Division are the disciples of Yues Cang.

Yet, soon after Ye Zhen realized what it meant to have a matter of oppressing men and mistreating women, just ask for him to clean it up, he will surely clean it thoroughly!"

Oppressing men and mistreating women?

Is Ye Zhen that sort of person?

Before Ye Zhen could speak, Ghost Soul Hall Master Gou Ruoxu’s face grew solemn, "Young brother, great kindness doesn’t require thanks, but today you saved us twice, we should repay you well.

However, the discovery we made beneath Laiyang Fortress is astonishing! It concerns the survival of Great Zhou, and we must urgently report this matter.

Thus, no more delays, we must depart first!

In some time, you must reach out to us, definitely!"

With a serious fist salute towards Ye Zhen, Ghost Soul Hall Master Gou Ruoxu then lowly commanded, "Old Yues, let’s go!"

"Young brother, until next time. Remember to contact us!"

Before the words finished, the figures of the Chief Instructor Yues Cang and Ghost Soul Hall Master Gou Ruoxu suddenly vanished.

Watching them, Ye Zhen was full of praise.

Yues Cang truly deserves the title of Chief Instructor; his spatial teleportation skill was exercised completely without any firework aura.

Even when Ye Zhen deployed the Void-Slaughtering Radiance for sensing, he sensed only the slightest brief spatial fluctuations. Especially the timing, so brief Ye Zhen couldn’t detect and lock the specific location where he broke through space using the Void-Slaughtering Radiance.

This mastery is truly remarkable.

Gazing at the place where they disappeared, Ye Zhen furrowed his brows tightly.

No need for them to elaborate, Ye Zhen also understood what kind of status the Ancestor God Temple’s Ghost Soul Hall Master and the Chief Instructor held in Great Zhou.

Now, Great Zhou had indeed sent these two to cooperate in assessing the enigmatic Blood Light Formation beneath Laiyang Fortress.

Clearly, Great Zhou is truly anxious about this matter.

Moreover, what shocked Ye Zhen was, according to Gou Ruoxu, they discovered news concerning the survival of Great Zhou beneath Laiyang Fortress.

Great Zhou is so powerful, its territories are so vast, what kind of discovery was made to affect its survival!

While Ye Zhen was extraordinarily shocked, he was also quite curious.

Ye Zhen felt compelled to explore beneath Laiyang Fortress himself, to see what the erupting mysterious Blood Light Formation there conceals!

Just as Ye Zhen was about to move, he suddenly slapped his forehead, "Oh my, how did I forget such a significant matter!"
