Chapter 1154: Silent Battle Flames

“Have Cui Li and Bai Suxian left Xuanyuan Hill?”

Han Yuanhong asked a subordinate when his eyebrows raised in the Treasures Complex of Gold and Power Market.

Noticing the master's expression, the one replied meticulously, “Yes, half an hour ago, Bai Suxian, Cui Li and the disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect had already boarded their airboat at the airport in the north of Xuanyuan Hill. Closely after that, the airboat left Xuanyuan Hill for the north…”

“Do you know where they are heading for?”

After being a bit awkward, the one replied, “Hmm…I've not received the latest intelligence yet. Master, do you want to send a decree and have all the strength of Gold and Power Law keep a close eye on that airboat?”

The master's decree reflected the power and influence of masters in Gold and Power Law. After a master sent the decree, all the token owners, mountain owners, general directors and directors of Gold and Power Law across Taixia Country and abroad would coordinate with each other so as to meet the requirements and tasks in the master's decree. In Gold and Power Law, the master's decree was already a senior mobilization order.

In a federal organization like Gold and Power Law, the master's decree was not limitless. Master was neither major master nor Emperor Xuanyuan. One master could only send a few master's decrees just like the tokens in his hand. The more they were used, the less there would be. After using up all the master's decrees, the master had to exchange for it with his donation points in Gold and Power Law. The donation points in Gold and Power Law could not be made that easily.

After a short consideration, Han Yuanhong shook his head as he said, “Cui Li is not stupid. He knows that he could not defeat me in Xuanyuan Hill; therefore, he could only escape far away. Whatever, he has to return to Iron-Dragon Sect. We have enough time to deal with him!”

There was another reason that Han Yuanhong didn't mention. Just now, the general steward of Lord Guangnan's manor in Xuanyuan Hill came to the Treasures Complex in Gold and Power Market and bought some vials of medicaments. Although that general steward didn't meet Han Yuanhong or talk with him, Han Yuanhong was clear that the general steward was here on behalf of Lord Guangnan's manor in Xuanyuan Hill to not want his dad to offend Lord Guangnan openly. Therefore, he just ignored this thing for the time being.

Not until now did Han Yuanhong feel that Cui Li, as an earth knight, could pose any threat to him.

After waving his arm to let the subordinate leave here, Han Yuanhong looked outside the window and found it was already about 5 pm. He thought, ‘My father should have already set for the Sincerity Garden. Of course, the master of the royal prince doesn't invite my father only for a drink. In Xuanyuan Hill, everybody knows that the hedge around Sincerity Garden was the shortest. Very few people could enter it. The Emperor Xuanyuan is still missing; the royal prince acts as regent; the three top chancellors make a tour inspection far away from Xuanyuan Hill. Of course, my father, as one of the 9 ministers will be relied heavily on by the royal prince and the master of the royal prince. According to the current situation, my father could reach a higher position in the imperial court in the future. By then…' Han Yuanhong fleered.

Most of the people would have supper between 5 pm and 7 pm. Therefore, the master of Sincerity Garden invited Han Zhengfang to have a drink during this period.

If Han Zhengfang just paid a visit to his ordinary friend, as long as he could arrive there during this period, he would not be regarded as discourteous; however, at the invitation of the master of the royal prince, Han Zhengfang dared not be late at all; neither would he lower his own position. Therefore, he arrived at the gate of Sincerity Garden by his Faerie-dragon limo at 5:15 pm.

When Han Zhengfang got off, a humpbacked old servant, who had been waiting for him at the gate, pushed open the hedge door and invited Han Zhengfang in.

“Thanks…” Han Zhengfang said like a gentleman.

Trees, flowers, gra.s.ses and stones scattered in the garden disorderly. Stray cats were running back and forth. Even the path that led to the inside of the garden was unevenly paved with stones. Besides, there were pits here and there, which were filled with rainwater a few days ago.

“Watch out, these ants are carrying food for tiding over winter. Don't step on them!” The humpbacked old servant reminded Han Zhengfang about the cl.u.s.ter of ants before Han Zhengfang's foot as if he didn't know about the ident.i.ty of Han Zhengfang.

Han Zhengfang lowered his head as he saw an army of ants carrying two fingernail-sized b.l.o.o.d.y items in the gap of two stones. They looked like gills; however, as they were covered with dust, Han Zhengfang was not sure what they exactly were.

The finance minister raised his foot and strode over those ants meticulously.

In the eyes of outsiders, everything in Sincerity Garden looked disordered like a wasteland; however, in the eyes of Han Zhengfang, everything in this garden had reached the supreme realm like great arts concealing itself. Everything in the garden contained a Buddhist mood including the weeds, woods, a lonely flower among weeds, a piece of broken stone on one side of the hedge and a small water pit on the path. The essence of the great laws enlightened by the master of this garden was buried in this extremely unpretentious garden. Without reaching a realm, n.o.body could discover the specialty of this garden. Those who could figure out the specialty of this garden understood that this was the most valuable garden across Taixia Country; even the imperial garden in the imperial palace could not match this one. Even 100 courtyards of dignitaries couldn't match a cl.u.s.ter of weeds in this garden. If a knight cultivated in this garden, his cultivation speed and insight might improve unconsciously.

The universal laws lay in nature; the sincerest heart was close to the universal laws. It was not just a lip service. Without such an immortal means being resonated to the universal laws, how could Meng s.h.i.+dao become outstanding among billions of people in Taixia Country as the master of the royal prince and the leader of the Gobbling Party?

When Han Zhengfang entered the Sincerity Garden, some sparrows which were tweeting on a roadside tree outside Sincerity Garden flew away as they frolicked with each other.

Han Zhengfang sensed that those sparrows flew off at such a coincidental moment. As there were so many secret knowledge in Taixia Country, it was hard to prevent them. Additionally, his 2nd son was still missing which made Han Zhengfang fretful unconsciously. Therefore, when Han Zhengfang entered the garden, he targeted on those sparrows with his knight's consciousness and wanted to check their destination.

Those sparrows fell on the eaves of an attic over 200 m away as they capered and tweeted over there.

Han Zhengfang became rea.s.sured at once as he mocked himself and shook his head slightly, ‘I'm oversuspicious. It's just some birds; nothing to worry about.'

The master of Sincerity Garden was waiting for Han Zhengfang under an old walnut tree beside the pond with a stony table and two stony benches. There were a bottle of spirit and some dishes on the stony table.

Han Zhengfang didn't care about those trivial sparrows any more. However, two more sparrows were paying attention to those sparrows who flew over there from the gate of Sincerity Garden over 500 m away from Sincerity Garden.

Although those sparrows' dance and frolic on the eaves looked meaningless in Han Zhengfang's eyes, it was meaningful in the eyes of the two sparrows in the far.

The two sparrows over 500 m immediately flew off the treetop and flew around that huge tree where they once rested on. At the sight of this information, two swirling doves miles away immediately turned around and flew towards the north of Xuanyuan Hill. After they flew less than 100 m away, the bizarre arcs that they drew in the sky were caught by some more doves in the distance…

The information chain composed of doves and sparrows soon reached dozens of miles away.

Sparrows could only fly about 20 miles per hour and had a poor endurance. Doves couldn't fly fast either. If Zhang Tie only depended on some doves or sparrows to pa.s.s the information in Xuanyuan Hill, when he received the information outside Xuanyuan Hill, it would be too late. However, doves and sparrows existed everywhere in Xuanyuan Hill. They were not eye-catching at all. What counted most, birds had very good vision. As long as there were enough doves and sparrows, they would be able to form a complete information chain and a specific monitoring network in Xuanyuan Hill.

Even sage-level knights could do nothing to such an information chain.

This was how the Great Wilderness Sutra made people scared and greedy. Such a realm of controlling animals was already unpredictable.

7 minutes later, before Han Zhengfang warmed up his seat, a white dove had flown over the s.h.i.+mmering Heavenlyqin Lake and rested onto Zhang Tie's shoulder after flying around him for a short while. Closely after that, the dove cooed as it rubbed its furry head against Zhang Tie's face.

Zhang Tie stretched out his hand and fed this dove with a small handful of swollen, crystal wheat which had been soaked in water.

This dove brought Zhang Tie a message what Zhang Tie was waiting for, namely, Han Zhengfang had already entered Sincerity Garden!

Given the pa.s.sing time of the message, Zhang Tie knew that Han Zhengfang had just entered Sincerity Garden for less than 10 minutes.

Zhang Tie sneered. When the dove ate up the small handful of wheat and flew off his shoulder, Zhang Tie made a bizarre hand gesture. Closely after that, the All-spirits PaG.o.da in his mind sea quivered all over while two great wilderness seals flew out of Zhang Tie's hand.

At this moment, the sunglow had already tinged the entire Xuanyuan Hill in the far with golden red…

The mysterious strength of the great wilderness seals immediately spread across thousands of square miles…

Numerous wild swans resting nearby the wetland of Heavenlyqin Lake looked up at the sky at the same time as a dominant strength was summoning them…
