Chapter 1956 - 1952: Zhang Lie

Immediately, Chen Feng led Liang Tian through the fields planted with Fiery Sun Grass and walked into the estate.

To be precise, they were heading towards the buildings within the estate.

Because Chen Feng’s purpose of coming was not only to take all the Fiery Sun Grass but also to control all those people in the Fiery Sun Sect who know how to cultivate Fiery Sun Grass.

This was his true objective!

Otherwise, he would merely take the Fiery Sun Grass away.

And if those people from the Fiery Sun Sect continued to cultivate the Fiery Sun Grass for Ming Yan Hall.

Then his trip would be meaningless.

Only by truly cutting off the source.

Would Ming Yan Hall have no Fiery Sun Grass to use.

At that point, the real initiative would fall into Chen Feng’s hands!

After all, controlling the Fiery Sun Grass means controlling the lifeblood of Ming Yan Hall.

One must understand.

In the Ancient Martial World.

For the major Ancient Martial Sects and Ancient Martial Artists.

The most crucial thing is Ancient Martial Arts.

And the Ancient Martial Arts of Ming Yan Hall have the fatal flaw of Cold Poison.

Without Fiery Sun Grass, their Ancient Martial Arts cannot be used.

Then their strength would be halved.

So, to them, Fiery Sun Grass is almost like a lifeline.

And Chen Feng came today to seize control of this lifeline.

They quickly traversed the farmland and arrived in front of the tallest villa.

This villa was the highest and largest within the entire farm.

Judging by its appearance, it seemed to be where the high-ranking members of the Fiery Sun Sect lived.

Chen Feng and Liang Tian exchanged a glance.

Then Chen Feng shouted directly: "Chen Feng of the Chen Family has come to the Fiery Sun Sect for a visit, I hope the senior members of the Fiery Sun Sect will come out to have a conversation!"

When speaking.

Chen Feng wrapped his voice with his True Qi and sent it out.

No matter how good the soundproofing of this building is, it cannot block Chen Feng’s voice.

In about half a minute.

The door of this tall villa opened.

A middle-aged man in a red robe walked out.

The man frowned, his face stern.

He first glanced at Chen Feng and Liang Tian, furrowed his brows, and asked in a deep voice, "People from the Chen Family? What business do you have with my Fiery Sun Sect? Has my Fiery Sun Sect offended the Chen Family in any way?"

"Your Fiery Sun Sect hasn’t offended the Chen Family much, but your master Ming Yan Hall does have some conflict with my Chen Family. I think Ming Yan Hall has already informed you about this. Besides, with the Ancient Martial World in such an uproar and the news spreading so fast, I’m sure you’re aware of it!"

Chen Feng said with a cold smile.

"Hmph! So what if I know? The conflict between your Chen Family and Ming Yan Hall has nothing to do with my Fiery Sun Sect. Although we are attached to Ming Yan Hall, providing Fiery Sun Grass for them, my Fiery Sun Sect has not directly offended the Chen Family. Since your Chen Family is also an Ancient Martial Sect, shouldn’t you follow some sense of reason? Now that you’ve barged into my Fiery Sun Sect so recklessly, isn’t this a bit unreasonable?"

The man snorted coldly, his face darkened as he spoke.

"Reason? Since you’ve mentioned these two words today, then I’ll thoroughly explain this reasoning!"

Chen Feng’s lips curved slightly into a playful smile as he said:

"Your Fiery Sun Sect has long been under the protection of Ming Yan Hall, providing them with Fiery Sun Grass. How important this Fiery Sun Grass is to Ming Yan Hall, I don’t need to explain each detail here, right? You, being part of the Fiery Sun Sect, should know better than me!"

"Given this, your Fiery Sun Sect and Ming Yan Hall are essentially on the same side. As we battle, you’re not neutral; you’re a logistical support to Ming Yan Hall, providing them with an endless supply of Fiery Sun Grass to maintain their combat capability!"

"Therefore, as our Chen Family goes to war with Ming Yan Hall, your Fiery Sun Sect is an enemy of the Chen Family!"

"Were you truly neutral, then I would indeed be unreasonable today. But since you’re on the same side as Ming Yan Hall, which means you’re an enemy of the Chen Family, how am I unreasonable when I come knocking at your door?"

"Sharp-tongued, I’ve long heard the Chen Family Patriarch Chen Feng possesses a silver tongue, capable of eloquence and debate. Today I’ve witnessed it firsthand, truly impressive!"

The man narrowed his eyes and spoke coldly.

"You’re too kind, I’m merely explaining the reasoning. Since you insist on debating with me, naturally I have to clarify things; otherwise, wouldn’t it seem our Chen Family is unreasonable?"

Chen Feng shook his head, smiled, and said.

"Well then, since you’ve said so much, may I inquire why you, as the Chen Family Patriarch, have come in such a grandiose manner today? Are you here to destroy our Fiery Sun Sect?"

The man asked coldly.

"No, no! It’s not that serious. Before I answer that question, I’d like to ask you a question first. What position do you hold within the Fiery Sun Sect? Can you make decisions for the sect?"

Chen Feng shook his head and looked at the man as he asked.

"My position? Haha, to be honest, I am the Sect Leader of Fiery Sun Sect, Zhang Lie!"

The man said with a cold smile.

And he wasn’t lying.

His true identity was indeed the Sect Leader of Fiery Sun Sect.

This person kept a low profile in the Ancient Martial World, serving Ming Yan Hall for years, ensuring their Fiery Sun Grass needs were met.

Although he wasn’t famous in the Ancient Martial World.

Underestimating him would be a grave mistake.

This person being able to serve a first-rate power like Ming Yan Hall and keep a strong connection with them shows he has certain capabilities.

Besides.

The Fiery Sun Sect, which specializes in cultivating herbs, inherently lacks strong individuals.

To have survived until now, if Zhang Lie lacked any means.

The Fiery Sun Sect might have been destroyed long before bonding with Ming Yan Hall.

After all, the Ancient Martial World is a very realistic place.

The law of the jungle is quite normal.

Sects like the Fiery Sun Sect, without sufficient strong individuals.

Appear to others as easy prey.

There’s a reason why the Fiery Sun Sect stands as it is today.

Its Sect Leader Zhang Lie holds immense credit for this.

Without him, the Fiery Sun Sect wouldn’t be what it is now.

It’s under his leadership that Fiery Sun Sect managed to cling onto Ming Yan Hall, developing until the present.

Now, it even has some fame in the Ancient Martial World.

Though overall strength remains at a third-rate level.

Even some second-rate and first-rate powers dare not provoke the Fiery Sun Sect.

Because anyone even slightly informed knows the Fiery Sun Sect is under the wing of Ming Yan Hall.

To hurt the Fiery Sun Sect is to provoke Ming Yan Hall.

This would result in very dire consequences!
