"Stop!" Yi Feng hurriedly intervened.
This was too extreme. He had merely expressed some doubt, and now they wanted to cripple him...
Thinking quickly, he explained, "You've misunderstood. I wasn't doubting you, I was just worried that you might get too excited once outside and neglect the tasks I assigned you."
To be honest, seeing Gong Chen's reaction had completely put Yi Feng at ease.
Hearing Yi Feng's words, Gong Chen also breathed a sigh of relief.
He wiped the fine sweat from his brow, "Master, please rest assured. While I am indeed excited about going outside, I would never dare to neglect your important matters!"
"Very well then." Yi Feng said, stepping forward to help the still-kneeling Gong Chen to his feet, "You can get up now."
Gong Chen rose shakily with Yi Feng's assistance. After the panic subsided, he began to think about Yi Feng's affairs.
"Master, if I go out with you, what about that woman from the Reincarnation Realm who might come?" he inquired.
Yi Feng's gaze swept over the crowd, landing on a farmer-like figure at the front, holding a hoe.
"What was your name again?" he asked.
Hearing Yi Feng ask for his name, and considering the previous topic, Dai Cang's voice trembled with excitement.
"Reporting to Master, this servant is Dai Cang."
Yi Feng looked at him, pondering for a moment, "Weren't you previously in charge of tilling the back garden?"
"That's correct!"
"Can you handle Gong Chen's duties after he leaves with me?" Yi Feng asked.
"Of course!" Dai Cang responded enthusiastically.
"Good, then you'll be in charge of the affairs and people in the courtyard after I leave," Yi Feng instructed. "Also, take care of the matter with the woman Gong Chen mentioned."
"Yes! This servant will not fail the mission!" Dai Cang planted his hoe on the ground and replied loudly and firmly.
Yi Feng picked at his ear, trying not to laugh at Dai Cang's overly solemn and dignified manner.
It was just a rundown courtyard with a few people digging and weeding, and he was merely a Human Immortal coasting along, yet somehow they had managed to create an air of supreme rulership.
Indeed, the mindset of powerful figures was truly different.
Unlike the old men who used to shovel manure and till the soil in his Martial Arts Hall, or the lazy disciples and recruited subordinates in his Heaven and Earth Sect.
Even if you explained your prowess to them in great detail, they would just stare blankly and casually remark, "Wow, sir, you're really amazing."
"Alright then, I'm off. I'll leave things here to you all," Yi Feng said. As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed Gong Chen and vanished on the spot.
The group was stunned, staring dumbfounded at the place where Yi Feng had disappeared.
Such instant disappearance wasn't difficult outside, but Dark Shadow Island was not only a desolate place that suppressed cultivation, it also had an ancient void barrier surrounding it.
They had assumed that even if the Master could leave, he would at least need to cast a spell and use his powers to depart.
They never expected him to vanish in an instant...
The crowd couldn't help but exclaim, "We knew the Master was strong, but we didn't expect him to be this powerful. It's simply terrifying!"
"Indeed. But Gong Chen is so lucky, being the first one to leave," someone else remarked.
"What's the big deal? Didn't you see how easy it was for the Master to take him out? Just grabbed him, and whoosh, they were gone!"
"As long as we serve the Master loyally, he'll take us out sooner or later. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"That's right," Dai Cang nodded in agreement. "Such a powerful figure as our Master, appearing out of nowhere, yet we've never heard of his name in the Immortal Realm."
"Now that he's suddenly appeared, he might be some ancient expert emerging to plan great things. He surely won't stay on this godforsaken Dark Shadow Island forever."
"That makes sense," the others chimed in.
A middle-aged woman holding a vegetable basket interjected with a smile, "You just said Gong Chen was lucky, but your luck isn't bad either. You've already been promoted. Who knows, maybe before long you'll be just like Gong Chen."
"I wonder when I'll be favored by the Master like you all."
Hearing this, Dai Cang couldn't suppress his smile no matter how hard he tried. "It's not like that. Gong Chen is now the Master's right-hand man. How could I compare?"
"He put you in charge, so you're a favored one too," came congratulatory voices from around, all agreeing.
Dai Cang's grin was so wide he could barely close his mouth, but he didn't forget about his duties.
"Alright, alright, you all go back to your tasks now. I need to go fulfill the Master's orders," Dai Cang waved his hand and headed off into the swirling sand.
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
