Chapter 65: Chapter 44: Quelling the Chaos _2

Translator: 549690339

All sorts of chaotic news were constantly coming in, and all kinds of tragedies were happening without pause.

However, during this week, the frequency of these events suddenly decreased.

Although news of the Black Wind Gang still spread, the actual happenings and frequency of it were much less than before.

Even the actions of the government and the Iron Sword Sect seemed to have reduced by more than half.

“Is it because the Liuyang Sect Leader, Yin Huixuan, has taken action?” Lu Yuan thought about the most prevalent piece of news he had heard these days.

As the leader of the martial arts world in Yuzhang, Liuyang Sect Leader Yin Huixuan’s every move attracted the attention of countless people.

His plan to strike directly at the Nanhai Sect and attack the core of the martial arts world in the South Sea would naturally draw the attention of many.

Not to mention anything else.

In just one night, countless supporters of Yin Huixuan, the Liuyang Sect Leader, emerged in the small Yangmei Town.

These people gathered every day, enthusiastically discussing the past achievements of the Sect Leader, their faces filled with admiration when talking about the exciting moments.

Of course, while praising Yin Huixuan, they didn’t forget to belittle the Nanhai Sect and step on the South Sea martial arts world from time to time to make themselves look stronger.

Apparently, with the ravaging of the Black Wind Gang that had fled from the South Sea, the people in Luling Prefecture, from the wealthy gentry to the common foot soldiers, had a negative perception of the South Sea Prefecture, even turning hostile towards them.

Too many people had died in Luling Prefecture during this turmoil, and too many people’s interests had been affected.

The evil results produced by the martial arts world of South Sea Prefecture were already beginning to show.

However, this hatred and strife were taken seriously by the martial arts world and the common people of Yuzhang Prefecture.

But for Lu Yuan, that was it.

After all, he was a traverser, so you couldn’t expect him to have a strong sense of identity with Yuzhang Prefecture or this world.

Now, after hearing this news, Lu Yuan’s first reaction was, “The world is finally quiet.”

If everything goes as planned, this two-month-long chaos caused by the Black Wind Gang will come to an end with Yin Huixuan’s journey to the South.

If they win, there will be no doubt that the South Sea martial arts world will retract its hand, and the Black Wind Gang will vanish. They may even have to pay compensation.

If they lose, then the expansion of the Nanhai martial arts world in Yuzhang Prefecture will be hard to contain. Luling Prefecture might even have to give up, as the price of the failure in this martial arts contest.

Anyway, no matter the result.

The protagonist in this turmoil will no longer be the Black Wind Gang.

This could be seen from the Black Wind Gang’s low-key actions in recent days.

And that was enough for Lu Yuan to be happy about.

“Anyway, win or lose, Luling Prefecture should not be in a mess anymore.

Even if the martial arts world of South Sea and Yuzhang are willing to continue fighting, the imperial court cannot continue to turn a blind eye to its own prefectures and counties being turned into a mess and becoming a haven for bandits.

Otherwise, if the situation here deteriorates, and a righteous army emerges, it would be a big problem.

The power of the imperial court in this world is strong. It can even be called crushing against the various martial arts sects.

With such an overriding power in existence, the sky of Da Yue cannot be turned upside down.”

After all, every local government had a force stationed in their cities, as well as two top-ranking experts from the catch officers’ yamen. This was not something that everyone had.

Not to mention the deterrence of the grandmasters and great grandmasters in the prefecture cities and the imperial court.

Dozens of top-ranking experts and several grandmasters and great grandmasters were the strength and foundation of the Da Yue court to suppress the world.

In comparison, even the foremost sects in the Jianghu world like Liuyang Sect only had configurations of several top-ranking experts and one or two grandmasters.

The gap between the court and the Jianghu was indeed huge.

Of course, it was a comparison between a single sect and the entire court. If you compare the whole Jianghu with the court, the two sides would be evenly matched, and even with the Jianghu being slightly stronger.

However, one was loose sand, and the other was a single power. Comparing the two sides’ strengths and weaknesses, it was clear at a glance.

“Now let’s see what steps Liuyang Sect Leader can take and what surprises he can bring.” Lu Yuan took a sip of wine, looking forward to the grand event.

Although he didn’t lead the event himself or even participate in it, being in such an era was still exciting.

He even started to wonder, once he achieved great success in his divine skills, whether he should follow in Yin Huixuan’s footsteps and stir the winds and clouds of Jianghu with his sword.

Just the thought of it excited him.

However, as he was pondering, Lu Yuan suddenly remembered something, “No, that’s not right. Yin Huixuan’s martial arts challenge in Southsea has attracted the martial artists who were originally gathered in Luling Prefecture.

Even the Black Wind Gang has gradually calmed down.”

Now the situation was gradually stabilizing, and order began to be restored.

This change perfectly relieved Brother Sun’s worries.

So couldn’t it be possible that behind Yin Sect Leader’s actions, there was a portion of Brother Sun’s Qi Luck?

Influence of the immortal? Or fate?”

Recalling the dream Sun Siwen told him a few days ago and the worries he mentioned, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but feel a sudden shock in his heart.

The previous scene was still fresh in his mind.

With such rapid and strong changes happening now, it was hard not to associate it with the Qi Luck of Sun Siwen.

“No, it should not be. That would be too exaggerated, even to say the Heaven and Earth are in favor. Even if the immortal is powerful, it cannot be this powerful,” Lu Yuan shook his head after careful consideration.

He admitted that there must be some secrets about Sun Siwen, even involving some immortal fate.

But to say that his immortal fate was so great that it could influence so many people, that was a bit too exaggerated.

Take the simplest example:

If Sun Siwen’s ancestor was really that powerful, then why did his descendants end up in such a predicament?

Directly blessing the offspring with wealth and prosperity in every generation would be much simpler, right?

Why bother with self-inflicted hardship like it is happening now?

“I must be overthinking it.”

After taking a sip of wine to calm himself, Lu Yuan put the idea aside.

However, in his heart, he became even more curious and eager about the immortal fate surrounding Sun Siwen.

But without knowing if it was safe or dangerous, he wouldn’t dare to get close to it no matter how much he was intrizued.

After all, it was an immortal.

Even though he wasn’t sure about the composition of this “immortal,” there was one thing Lu Yuan could be sure of: that immortal could easily crush him to death.

After all, everyone knows what the gap between martial arts and immortal arts means.

“I’ll just wait a bit longer. I have plenty of time, and I can wait a hundred years. When Brother Sun passes away and I achieve great success in my divine skills, it won’t be too late to explore that immortal fate.”

Steadying his mind, Lu Yuan ceased thinking about it and continued to dine, listening to all sorts of news in the tavern.

In a blink of an eye, more than a month had passed.

During this time, Yin Huixuan swept through the Southsea martial arts world, undefeated.

Nanhai Sect, Cangwu Sect, Jiujiang Sect…

One after another, the major Southsea martial arts sects were defeated when facing the Liuyang Sect leader, and simply couldn’t hold their ground.

As more powerful opponents fell, Yin Huixuan’s reputation resounded throughout Southsea, and even the martial arts world of Yue Country was shocked and amazed by it.

The subsequent impact also gradually spread.

The most obvious one was that Lu Yuan hadn’t heard about the Black Wind Gang for over ten days now.

At some point, this once notorious gang had quietly disappeared from the sight of the common people in Luling Prefecture.

Even the once-infamous Eagle King, Fang Tianying, had completely vanished, as if there had never been such a character in Jianghu.

Luling Prefecture’s tranquility was restored completely, and security rapidly improved.

The original trade routes were opened again, and people from various places started to mingle once more.

It was at this time that Sun Siwen came knocking.

With the safety issue resolved, the scholar finally prepared to leave early for the Prefecture City.

And before he left, he delivered a surprise to Lu Yuan..
