"Is that so? This is merely the first small test since the establishment of the Dark Dragon Guard. You were the one who suggested its creation. What, do you lack confidence in their combat effectiveness?"
Ling Feng, while tending to his plants, casually retorted without even looking at Yang Fei.
Yang Fei scratched the back of his head, looking embarrassed.
"There's absolutely no problem with the Dark Dragon Guard's combat effectiveness; they can still hold their ground. It's just... this Corpse King is too cunning!"
By the end of his sentence, Yang Fei's face was etched with worry.
Only then did Ling Feng put down his watering can, turn to look at Yang Fei, and shake his head. "I told you long ago that someone who has lived for three thousand years would certainly have a very steady mindset. He has plenty of time to play this slow game!"
"Then aren't we very passive? Although everyone is cultivating now, ordinary people's physical fitness is still too poor!"
Yang Fei shook his head helplessly.
But just then, someone walked in quickly from outside.
Yang Fei saw that it was Jin Tong and the other two returning.
Less than a month had passed. Had Li Tianjiao's mission been completed already?
Yang Fei didn't know that although Jin Tong and the other two hadn't been with Ling Feng for very long, their combat effectiveness had improved greatly.
Moreover, the king-level monsters they carried had evolved rapidly, and they now possessed the powerful strength of the late Golden Core stage.
They had completely surpassed king-level monsters and were getting closer to the strength of the Black Dragon on Ling Feng.
For Ling Feng to have these three join Li Tianjiao's team was an absolute powerful boost for Li Tianjiao. Completing all missions in a short period was not impossible.
"Is that side resolved?"
Ling Feng's expression softened slightly. Finally, there was some good news.
"Yes, Heavenly Venerate. The mission is complete, and the safe zone has entered its internal construction phase!"
Jin Tong bowed respectfully.
Titan, standing beside him, also said in a deep voice, "The Town Hall King has also returned to the capital, saying he wants to sleep for three days! He said to tell Heavenly Venerate..."
At this point, Titan's words became a little stammered.
Ling Feng, having heard these words, understood that Li Tianjiao must have said something unpleasant.
He waved his hand at Titan, smiled mischievously, and then dialed Li Tianjiao's phone.
Seeing this, Titan's eyes widened, and he instinctively wanted to remind Ling Feng of something.
Yang Fei, however, reached out and stopped Titan.
Then, a voice came from Ling Feng's phone.
"What is it? Didn't I already send someone to tell you? I'm sleeping now. Don't bother me with anything!"
Li Tianjiao's voice on the other end was filled with exhaustion. Clearly, the guy was sleeping and had been woken up by Ling Feng's call.
Ling Feng smiled. "Oh, I just wanted to confirm if that's what you meant by the message you sent. Alright, you can go back to sleep now!"
"What? Are you crazy..."
Li Tianjiao on the other end was instantly enraged.
But Ling Feng didn't give Li Tianjiao a chance to vent his anger and directly hung up the phone.
Titan, witnessing this scene, was dumbfounded. He clearly hadn't expected Ling Feng to do something so childish.
Yang Fei, on the other hand, was trying hard to suppress his laughter.
Li Tianjiao and Ling Feng's relationship had always been like this. Li Tianjiao had achieved merit this time and was indeed extremely tired.
Ling Feng's call was meant to tease him, but also to show his concern. Confirming that Li Tianjiao still had the energy to get angry meant that his health was still quite good.
"Alright, the three of you have worked hard. You can go down and rest. You have two days of leave. However, the brothers of the War God Regiment will have to work hard. They will have one day of rest, and there will be a new mission tomorrow morning!"
Ling Feng commanded the three.
Jin Tong and the other two responded respectfully and retreated.
However, after the three had left, Yang Fei looked at Ling Feng with a confused expression.
"If you have something to ask, just say it."
Ling Feng, without even looking at Yang Fei, knew what he was thinking.
Yang Fei scratched the back of his head. "Heavenly Venerate, the War God Regiment has killed many monsters in the past month, even over a hundred king-level monsters. Why aren't they allowed to rest properly this time?"
"There's no time. There should be big movements today."
Ling Feng replied casually, with a hint of helplessness in his tone.
Yang Fei was taken aback. "What big movements? Do they really need the War God Regiment to step in?"
Ling Feng shrugged. "Who told you that the Dark Dragon Guard you created doesn't have enough combat effectiveness yet? We can't just send them to their deaths, can we?"
Yang Fei, at this point, no longer cared about his embarrassment, only his extreme confusion.
What kind of big movement was it that required the War God Regiment to be deployed?
Ling Feng naturally knew Yang Fei's curiosity.
He stopped tending to the plants in front of him.
Turning, he walked into the house and said calmly, "I just received news that the Corpse King has made a move in the wilderness. These past three days should have been enough for him to accumulate."
"What? Made a move in the wilderness? No one there should be able to be refined into corpse demons by him..."
Yang Fei was greatly alarmed. After saying this, he instantly thought of something and then said with disbelief, "Could it be... monsters?"
"They can now be renamed as demonic beasts. The spiritual energy recovery has accelerated significantly, and those monsters are cultivating very quickly, their intelligence also increasing. That's why I asked Li Tianjiao to speed up the progress of seizing the safe zone territory. Because if we don't seize it now, it will be even more difficult to seize it later!"
Ling Feng spoke casually, but his expression became increasingly serious.
Yang Fei gasped. He had known for a long time that Ling Feng was always planning ahead.
But now, after learning the truth, he was still shocked by Ling Feng's foresight!
"So, in fact, Heavenly Venerate, you had already sensed that the Corpse King was targeting monsters before?"
Yang Fei still asked.
Ling Feng sat down, his expression calm. "Yes, he had no opportunities within the safe zone, and no opportunities with humans, so he was bound to target monsters. However, after these demonic beasts are refined by his methods, controlling them will not be as smooth, and it will also consume more effort. But, if he succeeds, there will still be quite a few troublesome matters!"
"Could it be that he might trigger a beast tide?"
Yang Fei's eyes widened, looking at Ling Feng in disbelief. The thought of those demonic beasts, turned into corpse demons, leading a large number of demonic beasts to attack the safe zone. xxs壹贰
That scene was truly terrifying!
And the destructive power would be absolutely immense. At that time, only the War God Regiment could resist it!
Thinking of this, Yang Fei suddenly understood what Ling Feng meant by not having enough time.
The War God Regiment would likely face an unprecedented challenge this time.
Ling Feng, however, gave Yang Fei a sideways glance and said casually, "You're overthinking it. It's impossible to trigger a beast tide with his methods in a short period!"
"Then what mission is the War God Regiment meant to carry out?"
Yang Fei was bewildered again. Was he really overthinking it?
"The War God Regiment? Naturally, it's to capture the Corpse King!"
A smile curved Ling Feng's lips!
