Chapter 983: [(717)] Iron-blood, Return (First Update, Seeking Monthly Ticket and Subscription) Chapter 983: [(717)] Iron-blood, Return (First Update, Seeking Monthly Ticket and Subscription) “Kunad, this is not Tanwood Country; do not deceive yourself!”
Someone shouted in scolding.
Kunad, expressionless, swung his axe down and chopped off the other’s head.
He was a true warlord who had lived through the chaos of warlord conflicts!
Even in front of Pitan, while grovelling and playing the part of a spineless sycophant, it was undeniable that he had indeed fought his way through to become a warlord!
How could such a man be easily handled!
He turned his head.
Kunad looked at the soldiers from Mojing Country who were trying to resist. He took a few steps forward and swung his axe down fiercely.
The battle ended in less than ten minutes.
“Make sure to stab all the bodies,” Kunad said coldly.
Shadows darted about.
Sounds of flesh being pierced could be heard.
Kunad took out a satellite phone, “King, it’s been taken care of… Understood.”
…
…
Underground.
When he saw the Golden Mother Divine Tree again, its aura had grown stronger since last time.
After the Heaven God had finished inspecting its body, it withdrew obediently.
Pei Jinye then slowly recounted what had happened in the outside world.
“Perhaps Songzi has realized that something here has changed.”
“It was bound to happen sooner or later, I’m not surprised,” the Golden Mother Divine Tree spoke slowly after evolving all the weapons Pei Jinye had brought out: “Pei Little Friend needn’t worry about me. With his methods, he can’t kill me directly. Besides, I’m still of use to him; hence, this series of actions is likely just a probe. You needn’t intervene. I think it’s better for you to remain more hidden until you’re fully grown, then you can kill him.”
“That’s exactly my intention.”
Songzi controlled Palace Ji but now Pei Jinye had plotted and dealt with it, for Songzi it was like losing an arm.
Next, keep probing the enemy and continuing to cause trouble indirectly was merely a way of stalling, to prevent him from focusing on the Golden Mother Divine Tree.
However, the tree’s thoughts were now showing depth and cunning.
While Pei Jinye became vigilant, he was not overly anxious.
At present, the relationship between him and the Golden Mother Divine Tree was mutually beneficial.
The safest method was to gain control over the Golden Mother Divine Tree… after all, it was a tree that could continuously temper weapons.
One must guard against others, especially such ancient, strange beings. Pei Jinye also hoped that the Golden Mother Divine Tree would have the same genuine heart as himself.
After leaving the underground palace.
Pei Jinye stood at the base of the mountain not following Kunad who had left earlier, but asked them to go first while he lingered at the rear.
He looked around.
Stretching out his hand, he harnessed the Power of Elements.
The woods around him shook, faintly forming a maze.
After completing these, he vanished in a flash.
…
In the Royal Palace of Mojing Country.
“What are you trying to do! Kunad, have you forgotten the oath between our two countries? How dare you–”
“Ptui!”
A head fell to the ground.
Kunad’s gaze was cold. As he turned around, he quickly adjusted his expression, looking flatteringly to the figure on the throne across from him: “King, we have seized all the key areas of Mojing Country.”
“Begin.”
Pei Jinye decreed the execution of Mojing Country in a single sentence.
Mojing Country itself relied on Tanwood Country, which was well recognized by the outside world.
Now, Pei Jinye, under the alias of “Pitan,” occupied Mojing Country in a blitz.
Controlling this country was not his original intention; however, dispatching the military to station there publicly claimed it was a base, but he secretly controlled the area with the Golden Mother Divine Tree.
Pei Jinye was looking for rapid success.
He was unsure how many more times he could stay in this world.
Thus, everything needed to be quick!
Mojing Country changed rulers, choosing a compliant king.
Palace Ji had become like a stray dog.
Pei Jinye was also busy.
In terms of hacking, the hackers in this world were merely novices.
He meticulously worked to uncover the whereabouts of Shuozi.
Little by little, he exposed the forces secretly controlled by the other party.
He did not expect the information to deliver a devastating blow to Technique God Shuozi, mere occasional disturbances and confusion were enough.
Pei Jinye knew that what he needed most was time.
…
“King, these are the herbs recently collected from Mojing Country, totaling 571 types, amounting to 13 tons.”
Three days later, Kunad arrived with the supplies.
After Pei Jinye encouraged them, he secluded himself with the supplies.
Actually, he summoned Heaven God to identify these herbs.
The evolved Heaven God worked incredibly fast.
All tests were completed in just over an hour.
“404 types of herbs can evolve to the second generation, and only 49 types can evolve to the third generation.”
“404… somewhat of an unlucky number.”
Pei Jinye shook his head.
“Never mind, prioritize the third generation optimization; those second generations can wait.”
The effects of second generation Spiritual Objects were wholly inferior to the third.
And…
There wasn’t much time left.
Within less than seven days stationed in Mojing Country, the Empire had sent envoys to attempt an alliance with Mojing Country’s new king.
The result was obvious.
The Empire’s “friendship” was rejected. Although there was no overt reaction, according to Pei Jinye’s intelligence network, there was some unrest at the border.
An assassin had arrived.
…
“Bang!”
The Sword Lotus detonated from mid-air, its dazzling brilliance instantly engulfing everyone’s vision.
“Bang bang bang!”
Blood mist exploded.
Several figures were sent flying.
“You Empire folks are way too arrogant. You thought just these few people could overturn Mojing Country’s new authority?”
Pei Jinye adjusted the mask on his face.
After searching each corpse thoroughly, Jinye burned them directly with Karmic Fire, leaving nothing behind.
Shortly after Pei Jinye left,
A group of Empire Martial Artists dressed in camouflage quietly approached.
Seeing the marks of battle, their faces turned extremely grim.
“Notify the headquarters, all members of team A were attacked, all are lost.”
“What do we do now?”
“Retreat, Mojing Country might have a First Level Strongman, wait for the intelligence team to investigate.”
…
…
Federation, Dragon City.
A drizzle was falling.
A scent of freshly turned soil wafted through the air.
The young man opened his eyes and gently exhaled.
“It has already been seven days in reality, but this stay seemed much longer.”
He fumbled for his cellphone.
It had already turned off due to a drained battery.
One minute after charging, it turned on automatically, and a pop-up window showed hundreds of missed calls at least.
“Great, troublesome matters have come.”
Pei Jinye waited a while and then made a call to Lin Xiuxian.
As soon as the call connected, Lin Xiuxian started swearing.
Suddenly losing a student was a big deal!
If it weren’t for Pei Jinye’s previous experiences with closed-door training, he would have thought this kid had been secretly killed by some organization.
Pei Jinye was also apologetic, continuously apologizing.
“A sudden enlightenment struck me, really couldn’t spare any time.”
Lin Xiuxian also understood how precious the opportunity of enlightenment is, hesitating even a second might mean missing it, so he didn’t say much more, “Did you make a breakthrough?”
“A minor gain in Martial Arts.”
“That’s good enough, where are you now? Remember to come for class in the afternoon.”
…
He then sent messages to some other people, reporting his safety.
After a moment.
Steam rose from the bathtub.
Pei Jinye closed his eyes to recuperate, soaking in the hot water, the drizzle still gently falling outside, his heart utterly calm.
This journey to a different world had brought immense gains.
His Attribute Points increased by over one hundred thousand, pushing his limit above two hundred thousand, and he was merely one hundred thousand away from the three hundred thousand threshold of Extraordinary Eighth Rank.
For him, it was just about digesting the newly obtained resources.
“So, in three months, I must reach Extraordinary Eighth Rank!”
Suppressing the joy in his heart, Pei Jinye took a deep breath.
“Can’t get too happy too soon, Star Ring has never given up on me… and I still have the Old Gods Association’s label.”
Regarding Star Ring, Pei Jinye always maintained the highest vigilance.
After all, this is an “old monster” that has existed for thousands of years, and it is an unquestioned powerhouse in the realm of the mind.
What made Pei Jinye more cautious was that despite many organizations, including the Old Gods Association, launching campaigns to eliminate Star Ring over the years, all had invariably failed.
Among them were unparalleled geniuses, yet all had failed.
The implication was clear.
Pei Jinye’s attitude towards Star Ring was different from these people.
His goal wasn’t to resist the control of intelligence-it didn’t matter who controlled the world as long as it didn’t interfere with him.
Unfortunately, Star Ring needed too much.
From the very beginning when it controlled the resources, many things were already doomed.
Although his advancement was rapid, Pei Jinye still did not want to confront Star Ring too soon, at least not until he had unlocked the Life Valve, which would give him a better chance.
For him, many organizations in this world would make moves against Star Ring; it wouldn’t hurt to let these enthusiastic world peacekeepers wear it down first.
Compared to defeating Star Ring, cultivation was Pei Jinye’s top priority at the moment.
The Extraordinary-Human Genes that the real world could provide were also crucial.
[Xing Tian.]
[I am here.]
Suddenly disappearing for seven days.
Xing Tian couldn’t express concern, but the logic displayed in their communication revolved around Pei Jinye’s safety.
This added some warmth to their conversation.
…
In the afternoon.
The weather had cleared after the rain.
As soon as Pei Jinye appeared below the Jingzhe Building, Ji Wutian and the others immediately surrounded him.
“It’s been seven days, we’ve missed you.”
Liu Limin was the first to rush forward.
Pei Jinye shook his head with a smile, looked up and seeing Ji Yuyan and others watching, he said with a smile, “I’m fine, sorry to worry you.”
Ji Wutian pulled him over and whispered, “Have you reached Fourth Rank?”
“No.”
Just Seventh Rank…
Pei Jinye shook his head, telling the truth without lies.
Ji Wutian was stunned.
Before he could say anything more, Lin Xiuxian appeared.
“Class time!”
…
Life continued routinely.
During those seven days, the Old Gods Association also contacted Pei Jinye.
After Pei Jinye replied, Elder Wuji finally said ruefully, “Good thing you replied, otherwise I really thought the Federation had detained you.”
“I had a sudden insight, what’s happening outside that you urgently called me?”
“We were engaged in battle with the Federation previously, and I had hoped for you to lead the team; unfortunately, Hui Yuan benefited from it, but no worries, I’ll arrange some tasks for you to lead.”
Not necessary…
“I’ve had some insights recently, might not be able to act shortly.”

Pei Jinye pondered and spoke, his words leaving no room for doubt.
Hearing this, Elder Wuji immediately showed interest, “You’ve made another breakthrough?”
“Fortunately,” Pei Jinye admitted “modestly.”
For the Old Gods Association, he needed to appropriately demonstrate his strength, as it added to his intimidation.
“Sss!!!”
