Chapter 330: Chapter 330: It’s Hard to Stay Low-Key

The flow of people entering and exiting the Imperial City was vast, and near the Transmission Array, coupled with the Golden-Armored Guards, it was now packed with thousands of people.

Confronted with the worship of thousands, upon witnessing such an imposing display, Hong Yue and Little Moli had their little faces full of shock. Wherever they went, people knelt in reverence, much like the approach of an Emperor.

But upon further consideration, this man had even slain the Emperor of the Heavenly Mist Empire, so it didn’t seem so outlandish for him to enjoy an Emperor-like reception.

"Everyone, rise." Looking over the massive crowd prostrated before him, Shi Feng said calmly.

"Thank you, War God!" Whether it was out of fear of Shi Feng’s infamous reputation or genuine respect, everyone shouted in unison towards Shi Feng.

"War God, where are you heading?" The Golden-Armored General tasked with guarding the Transmission Array asked Shi Feng respectfully as he rose to his feet.

This Golden-Armored General had followed Long Chen from the Yunlai Empire and had long heard of the notorious Shi Feng. Now, the name of War God Shi Feng penetrated deep into the soul because he had accomplished a feat that citizens from the Yunlai Empire wouldn’t even dare to contemplate, and he had done it alone.

Hearing the Golden-Armored General ask him, Shi Feng turned his head to look at Hong Yue, who mentioned they would need to pass through seventeen cities, but Shi Feng did not know which seventeen.

"To Beiyao City!" Hong Yue declared.

"At your command!" The Golden-Armored General saluted Hong Yue with a clenched fist and a respectful shout. Although he did not know who the beautiful woman speaking was, she must be someone of great importance to be accompanied by the War God. Perhaps these two beautiful women were the War God’s companions!

"All of you, step down. The War God is activating this Transmission Array!" The Golden-Armored General ordered everyone who was already standing on the Transmission Altar, and naturally, except for the three with Shi Feng, everyone obediently stepped off the array.

The Golden-Armored Guards carefully and diligently set the coordinates and inserted the Primordial Stones needed for transmission to Beiyao City, fearing any error. A few of the guards were so tense under the imposing aura of War God Shi Feng standing on the array that their breaths became heavy, and their hands trembled nervously.

Coordinates set and Primordial Stones absorbed by the Transmission Altar, a flash of white light followed, carrying away Shi Feng and his two companions.

"Huff! Huff! Huff! Huff!" Seeing that War God Shi Feng had disappeared, several Golden-Armored Guards let out deep breaths of relief, feeling their whole bodies relax.

"Having the War God himself come here puts too much pressure on us!" one of the Golden-Armored Guards said to his companion.

"Yeah, my heart was racing just now. Under the War God’s invisible might, it was hard to breathe."

"War God, truly worthy of being the War God! Even the women by his side are so beautiful. Ah, if only I could be a man like that, how great it would be!"

"Tch, stop dreaming!"

..

Shi Feng and his two companions arrived at Beiyao City, where to their surprise, even the Golden-armored Guards recognized Shi Feng. Subsequently, near the Transmission Array, a large crowd began kowtowing toward the trio, hailing Shi Feng as the War God. Even the City Lord of Beiyao City was startled and hastened to greet them, bowing to Shi Feng from afar.

The reputation of a person is like the shadow of a tree, and for the current Shi Feng, it was impossible to remain low-profile.

Because among the people, numerous versions of legends were circulating. Many had offended the War God without knowing his identity, leading to disasters that resulted in the extermination of clans, or even the massacre of entire cities. Some versions of these stories were particularly gruesome, depicting cities with corpses strewn everywhere, blood flowing like rivers, with the War God Shi Feng standing amidst the multitude of bodies, laughing uproariously towards the sky, then releasing thousands of mad dogs to gnaw on the corpses of the entire city.

Some rumors were chilling to the bone. Now, every Great Force and City Lord had long since prepared portraits of the War God, and they ordered their subordinates and family members to keep the War God in mind at all times. He was someone to be treated respectfully, a presence one must not provoke.

Should someone offend him carelessly, it was expected they commit suicide as an apology, to avoid implicating their entire family.

Eventually, on Little Moli’s advice, the two women disguised Shi Feng, turning him into an ordinary-looking youth.

Afterward, they took consecutive rides on the Transmission Array and finally arrived inconspicuously at Luqing City.

Luqing City was considered a rather remote small town within the Yunlai Empire, but though remote, when compared to the larger cities, Luqing City still boasted a total population of two hundred thousand.

Upon exiting the Transmission Array Altar in Luqing City and stepping into the bustling central streets, they found a vibrant crowd constantly moving to and fro, carriages galloping through the city, and Martial Artists riding demon beasts dominating the pathways.

"Is the Yin Ghost Sect outside this small town?" Shi Feng asked, looking at the small town.

"The entrance is inside this town. Follow me," Yuee said, and then led Shi Feng and Little Moli toward the so-called entrance. Along the way, Yuee continued, "Ever since the Yin Ghost Sect joined the Heavenly Demon Sect, various Sects have started to relocate their Sects here, establishing their own mountain gates to guard against attacks from the prestigious orthodox Sects.

So, what we’re facing this time may not just be the Yin Ghost Sect, but also dozens of other Sects. For their experts, I have complete confidence in you and believe you won’t have any problems handling them. What concerns me the most is the Heavenly Demon Sect. So once we enter the Yin Ghost Sect, we should try not to make too much noise to avoid alerting the Heavenly Demon Sect. It would be best to avoid an encounter with their Sect Leader."

After hearing Yuee’s words, Shi Feng shook his head and smiled lightly. When he had exterminated the Floating Void Sect, he had already declared that he would visit the Yin Ghost Sect. With his current reputation and the renown from slaying Elder Tian Dang, he figured the Yin Ghost Sect must have already sought protection from the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Perhaps upon entering the Yin Ghost Sect, he would be directly confronting the Heavenly Demon Sect.

However, Shi Feng didn’t take the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect too seriously. The Blood Monument could still be activated once more, and even if the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect possessed a Martial Arts Realm surpassing Elder Tian Dang, or had stepped into the Martial Saint Realm, what of it?

Once the Blood Monument was unleashed, who would dare to contend!

Later, Yuee and Little Moli led Shi Feng away from the crowd to an isolated area. The houses here were decrepit, deserted, and the dilapidated buildings looked like they belonged to a slum.

"This place is the entrance to our Yin Ghost Sect and the various other Evil Sects," Yuee said, stopping in front of a very ordinary and run-down house, pointing out the dwelling.

This house seemed as if it had weathered many years, giving the impression that a few more storms would cause it to collapse.

"It seems quite secretive," Shi Feng commented, nodding while looking at the decrepit house ahead.
