At dawn, the ancient land of the ancestral gods was shrouded in dim morning light.
The Yinhuang City was quiet and deserted. There were not many pedestrians on the streets. There were only a small team of black-armored guards wearing heavy armor and holding mysterious spears filled with cold light, patrolling the streets and alleys in the city.
Ye Fan left the Yinhuang Inn, and there was a large and luxurious carriage from the Beast Emperor Pavilion parked at the door, waiting for it.
He got on the carriage in the Beast Emperor Pavilion and saw that in the carriage, He Wanqing, Han Ziyi, An Yan, He Kun, Le Jing, Ye Jinlong, and several other new captains were all there, including more than a dozen battle captains. The Beast King Pavilion reports to the great elder.
In just a few years, the number of combat brigades in the Beast Emperor's Pavilion has almost doubled. In addition to Le Jing's restoration of the title of captain, several new captains have been added.
"Captain Ye!"
"Elder Ye!"
All the captains greeted Ye Fan one after another, either with expressions of respect or envy.
Everyone knows that the Beast King Pavilion has grown rapidly in recent years, which is closely related to Ye Fan's achievements. If Ye Fan and the mammoth beast king Da Hui hadn't led a large group to hunt in the wild Gobi, the Beast King Pavilion would not have had so much financial resources to recruit troops and expand its strength.
Ye Fan nodded to the captains, sat down in the center of the spacious carriage, closed his eyes and meditated.
The captains had their own thoughts and did not talk too much, and the carriage fell silent for a while.
The luxurious carriage slowly headed to the Beast King Pavilion headquarters in the city, and soon arrived at the attic of the headquarters.
Every year, as a routine, the Wuhou Captains of the combat brigades need to explain the completion of last year's tasks to the two elders Hua Yuan and Jian Hongyu, and receive the tasks for the next year. Or job title changes, rewards or criticisms, most of them happen at this time.
"Five years have passed in a flash, and I don't know when it will take until I find a suitable bloodline to inherit!"
Ye Fan was thinking silently in his heart.
It took him five years to make Dahui grow to the late stage of Beast King, and successfully broke away from the shackles of the Elephant Saint's holy chain, regaining great combat effectiveness. At the same time, in a large number of actual battles day after day, his own combat skills training of the four major systems of ice, wind, thunder, and blood have also been integrated and mastered, reaching an extremely high level.
In the past five years, he has taken root in the Beast Emperor Pavilion, brought huge financial resources to the Beast Emperor Pavilion, and became an important member of the Beast Emperor Pavilion.
But as a Wuhou, he was still a member of the lower level of the Beast King Pavilion.
Among all the large and small forces, whether it is the lords' families or the ancient land of the ancestral gods, the disciples at the bottom are shouldered with the task of earning financial resources.
In a large family of princes, the core disciples only need to concentrate on cultivation, while a large number of non-direct members at the bottom of the line go to earn money and accumulate sand to form a tower to support these few core disciples. Dozens, or even hundreds, of non-direct members are enough to support one direct member.
The same is true in the Ancient Land of Ancestral Gods. The Martial Kings are the core, and the Martial Lords and Martial Lords are the bottom members.
The core Martial King elders at the top do not need to worry about earning Yuan Stone at all. Most of them focus on cultivation and occasionally participate in battles. The task of earning Yuan Stone is all undertaken by the low-level Wuhou.
Ye Fan certainly did not join the Beast King Pavilion simply to contribute to the elders. He wants to complete his goal as soon as possible - to obtain a high-level bloodline inheritance, which requires the support of the Beast King Pavilion.
…
Twelve Wuhou captains arrived at the Beast Emperor Pavilion in carriages.
On the seventh floor of the Beast King Pavilion, the two elders Hua Yuan and Jian Hongyu listened to the reports of the eight Wuhou captains including Ye Fan, He Wanqing, Han Ziyi and others who were in the wild Gobi. They couldn't help but smile with joy on their faces.
Each brigade in the wild Gobi successfully completed a 30% increase in the number of hunting missions almost every year. After the number of brigades increased from three to eight, the income was even more astonishing, four times that of before.
Since Ye Fan became the captain, in the past five years, the financial resources of Beast Emperor Pavilion have grown by leaps and bounds.
Elder Jian usually has a stern face, as if everyone owes him money, but at this time of year he is extremely happy.
"This year, the eight brigades in the wilderness have completed the hunting mission again! Captain Ye, all the brigades have worked hard! You will go to collect your salary and rewards later, have a good rest in Yinhuang City, and set off again in a few days."
Jian Hongyu smiled at the captains.
"yes!"
The captains stationed in the wild Gobi nodded and retreated to the side of the hall.
"Elder Hua and Elder Jian, is there any news about bloodline inheritance of level five or above recently?"
Ye Fan did not retreat immediately, but asked.
He had previously asked two great elders to help inquire about this information.
"This. We have inquired for you, but we have not heard any news about the inheritance of high-level bloodlines. This object is an extremely rare mysterious treasure. It is not often encountered in the ancient land of the ancestors. It takes decades or hundreds of years to find one. It is entirely possible to inherit a bloodline of level 5 or above."
Hua Yuan and Jian Hongyu looked at each other, looking a little embarrassed.
The senior elders of the Beast King Pavilion all know that Ye Fan has been trying to find a way to break through the realm of King Wu in these years.
There are only two ways to become a Martial King.
The first is to understand the heart of martial arts and rely on one's own understanding. This is the promotion path for most martial kings. The second is bloodline inheritance, relying on the innate high-level bloodline power to break through the realm of King Wu.
The second method is more difficult than the first method. After all, only a very small number of people have naturally strong bloodlines. Only those who are either royal princes or martial saints can have high-level bloodlines.
They didn't quite understand that at Ye Fan's age, he could be promoted to King of Martial Arts by understanding the heart of martial arts. Why give up the easy for the difficult and instead look for bloodline inheritance.
"Captain Ye, in fact, it is better for you to slowly cultivate your martial arts heart than to find a bloodline inheritance of level five or above. There is no need to rush. I only realized the martial arts heart after I was a hundred years old. You are only three years old now. If you are less than ten years old, even if you delay becoming the Martial King until your age, you still have seventy years to slowly realize that the hope of becoming the Martial King is very high."
Great Elder Huayuan persuaded patiently.
"I know this."
Ye Fan smiled bitterly.
He had no choice but to do so.
If his heart was not locked by the Fox Saint's Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart Lock, or if there was not a drop of the Fox Saint's blood in the heart lock, he would directly find a way to break the Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart Lock and understand the heart of martial arts.
But he couldn't break the heart lock, he was imprisoned by this heart lock. Obtaining bloodline inheritance may be his only way out.
However, the two great elders of the Beast King Pavilion had no news about high-level bloodline inheritance, which made him very helpless.
Next, there are reports from the four Wuhou captains in the chaotic mining area.
When Ye Jinlong was waiting for the captain to report, his face looked a little ashamed.
Their benefits from being stationed in the Chaos Mining Area are obviously not as good as those of the combat brigade in the wild Gobi. In the past five years, they have only added one Wuhou brigade.
The two great elders were a little disappointed, but it was hard to say anything.
After all, not every Wuhou has the strength of Ye Fan to achieve rapid growth year after year. The other Wuhou captains can grow a little every year, which is already considered good.
"By the way, Great Elder, I am reporting an abnormal situation! In the past year, I have discovered that spies from the Red Gang have frequently appeared in the chaotic mining area. There are at least dozens of cases every month. They are investigating the reality of the guards in our mine tunnels. It seems that they are interested in the truth. The mining area is about to start. We arrested several spies, but they were only responsible for investigation and did not ask anything about the situation. Should we strengthen our vigilance against the Red Gang? "
Ye Jinlong suddenly remembered something and reported it.
When the elder Jian Hongyu heard this, his expression darkened and he couldn't help being furious: "The Red Clothes Gang actually dared to peek into my territory of the Beast King Pavilion! Do they want to start a war?!"
Sending spies to investigate was a clear act of hostility. It is a provocation to any force. How could he not be angry?
"Elder Jian, calm down and don't get angry. The Red Clothes Gang is currently just sending spies to find out the truth and has not actually taken action. I have arranged to keep a close eye on their actions. They may not really dare to take action."
Ye Jinlong said quickly.
"Huh, since the spies are out frequently, they have their own agenda. All they lack is the opportunity. Once the time comes, they will definitely dare to take action! What do you, the captains, think about this matter?"
Jian Hongyu said coldly.
When the captains heard this, they all looked shocked and started talking about it.
"The Red Clothes Gang is very weak. They have been ranked tenth in the past few years. They are no match for our Beast King Pavilion! How dare they take advantage of us?"
"I also think that the Red Clothes Gang may not have the courage to attack us!"
Le Jing said doubtfully.
"You have ignored other forces. The Red Gang is not the only one who is eyeing us. We, the Beast King Pavilion, have been the largest force for so many years, and other forces have long wanted to replace us. As long as they secretly intervene to contain our strength, then it is entirely possible for the Red Gang to seize the mining area and succeed!"
He Wanqing said.
"This. It is indeed possible. If the Red Gang gets support from other major forces, they may risk attacking our mining area!"
"The development of the Red Gang has been quite unsatisfactory in the past few years. If they cannot grow, they may fall behind among the top ten forces. I guess they want to take risks and seize our mining area. According to the rules of the Ancient Land of the Ancestral God, Except for Yinhuang City, where the city lord is elected by the top ten, the rest of the territories outside are all based on strength. It is not uncommon for each other to compete for territory. "
"Since the Red Clothes Gang dares to provoke, we might as well take the initiative and deal with them severely!"
"No, before the Red Clothes Gang took action, we had no evidence. We can't just launch an attack just because of the rumor!"
"Even if we defeat the Red Gang, there will be no benefit, and they don't have any good territory! If we defeat the Red Gang, it will make other big forces more wary and wary of us."
The captains of all the divisions discussed and discussed, their worries not lessening.
If the Beast Emperor Pavilion wants to secure its position as the city lord of Yin Emperor City, it must not take the initiative to offend other forces and avoid becoming the target of public criticism.
Otherwise, the top ten forces in the Ancestral God Ancient Land will launch a vote. Once the Beast Emperor Pavilion receives less than five votes, they will step down and lose their throne as the Lord of Yin Emperor City.
"Red Gang!"
Ye Fan listened to everyone talking, but his heart skipped a beat.
The top ten forces in the Ancestral God Ancient Land, "Beast Emperor Pavilion, True Spirit Society, Fiery Palace, Star Luo Fang, Blood Flame Sect... Red Clothes Gang", all have their own important territories, and many forces have divided and occupied the entire Ancestral God Ancient Land. The vast territory of the earth.
The Beast Emperor Pavilion family occupies three places, namely the Wild Gobi, the Chaotic Mining Area, and the Yinhuang City.
Other major forces have one or two territories. Even the weakest Red Gang has their own important territory, which is one of the important relics of the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods - the Ancient God Temple!
