The First Sage of Military Strategists

Western Mang.

Above the Holy City of Sirius, amidst the endless void turbulence, several figures stood on the deck of a huge ship. The leader was a handsome young man carrying a long sword, with striking features and a dashing appearance, and he was also wearing a loose purple robe.

Behind him stood several other young men, also dressed in purple robes and carrying long swords, while the Nine Yin Great Sage stood to the side.

The group of people stared ahead, where they saw a vortex formed by chaotic void currents. The interior was dark and deep, and they had no idea where it led.

"It will take another three months for this passage to be opened," the Great Sage of Nine Yin said slowly.

The young man did not respond. Suddenly, he frowned, flipped his palm, and a silver jade ring appeared. Then, with a crack, the jade ring suddenly collapsed, and a woman's scream came from within.

"Han Qing killed me! Avenge me! Avenge me!!"

"Is that the voice of Yin Huang, the Supreme Elder of the Xuanlei Sect? How could she have died at Han Qing's hands?" A person next to him exclaimed in disbelief.

"The Silver Emperor was a top expert in the Upper Realm. How could he die at the hands of a native from the Lower Realm? If the news gets out, it will surely cause a sensation."

"Just who is this Han Qing? We must not underestimate him if we encounter him in the future."

...

People in the upper realm often look down on those in the lower realm. Therefore, the death of a powerful figure like the Silver Emperor, who was famous and held a high position in the upper realm, will inevitably overturn many people's preconceived notions.

The young man in the lead raised an eyebrow and revealed a faint smile.

"Indeed, I thought that there might be some powerful figures in the lower realm, and that it would be utterly boring. I never expected that someone could actually kill the Silver Emperor."

The Xuanlei Sect and my Supreme Sword Sect have a close relationship. Since the Silver Emperor has asked me for revenge, I will find an opportunity to eliminate him. I hope he will not disappoint me.

Upon hearing this, the Great Sage of Nine Yin pondered inwardly. He had heard that this young man was named Jian Wuhen, the young sect master of the Supreme Sword Sect of the Upper Realm, and also the most outstanding genius in the Upper Realm today, known as the Sword Madman.

This person is naturally warlike, enjoys traveling with a sword, and goes wherever there are strong opponents. If he wins, he changes opponents; if he loses, he keeps challenging until he wins.

Clearly, Han Qing's killing of the Silver Emperor had piqued his interest.

"No rush. I'll go find him after this void passage opens. He can't escape this world anyway." Jian Wuhen pondered, slightly raising his eyes, his gaze fixed on the void vortex ahead, remaining silent.

...

South China Sea.

On a deserted island.

Lei Wanlong, Xu Yan, Shi Chen, and their group each found an open space, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate and cultivate, closing their eyes to rest.

Suddenly, Lei Wanlong opened his eyes and heard a cracking sound. The bright silver waist tag he carried with him had shattered.

"The Silver Emperor is dead?"

Lei Wanlong was shocked. This waist token was given by the Silver Emperor and could transmit thoughts between people at great distances. It was also wrapped with a wisp of the Silver Emperor's magical thought. Its sudden collapse meant that the Silver Emperor was dead.

"How could this be? Has Han Qing's strength become so great that he can kill a Silver Emperor? Then who in this world is his match?" Lei Wanlong suddenly felt an extremely strong sense of unease and fear.

"Gather!" He suddenly leaped into the air and shouted, and in an instant, many people gathered around him.

"This place is not safe to stay any longer. We should leave immediately." Lei Wanlong said with a gloomy face.

"Lord Silver Emperor hasn't returned yet. Should we wait a little longer?" someone nearby said.

"Silver Emperor is not coming back. She has already died at Han Qing's hands. Once he discovers that we are on this deserted island, he will definitely come to kill us and eliminate us completely. At that time, no one will be able to stop him." Lei Wanlong's words shocked everyone around him, and their minds were shaken.

"Silver Emperor is dead?" Xu Yan exclaimed in shock. He knew very well how terrifying Silver Emperor's strength was. The oppressive aura emanating from Silver Emperor's every move made it hard for him to breathe. How could such a terrifying figure with unfathomable strength just be gone like that? How could this not be shocking?

Qi Xiu Qianji, Shi Xiu Shi Chen, and others standing to the side were also shaken to their core.

"Han Qing is likely the strongest in this world. Knowing him as I do, he might already be on his way. Let's hurry, there's only one person who can save us now." Lei Wanlong was also somewhat panicked at this moment. The death of the Silver Emperor had also had a great impact on his mind.

"The master is right, let's go!"

"This place is uninhabitable!!"

...

With a flick of his wrist, Lei Wanlong produced a tiny, bright silver boat that suddenly expanded into a multi-story ship several dozen feet long. He then led Shi Chen and the others into the ship's cabin. In the next instant, the ship vanished into the sky as a streak of silver light.

...

Just a quarter of an hour after Lei Wanlong and the others left, Han Qing suddenly appeared on the deserted island.

He scanned the island with his magic and found it completely deserted.

"You're quite fast!"

Han Qing raised an eyebrow. This was one of his clones. After learning from the Silver Emperor's memories that Lei Wanlong had brought Xu Yan and others here to cultivate the Nine Extreme Thunder Pool and improve their strength, he immediately sent this clone to eliminate them completely.

Lei Wanlong and his group are backed by the Xuanlei Sect. If these people are not eliminated, there will likely be endless troubles to come.

However, he underestimated Lei Wanlong's vigilance and arrived too late.

"Since he's escaped, so be it. He can run for a day, but he can't escape forever. As long as Lei Wanlong is still in this world, we'll meet again sooner or later. Next time, I will definitely wipe him out in one fell swoop." Han Qing thought to himself, and his figure suddenly disappeared into the air again.

On the other side, Lei Wanlong flew at top speed, covering tens of thousands of miles, but he did not leave the South China Sea. Instead, he headed east and eventually arrived above another island, which was called Shenfeng Kingdom and was the fourth largest island in the South China Sea.

At this moment, the vast Divine Wind Kingdom has been sealed off by a mysterious force. To the naked eye, everything on the island appears calm and peaceful, but if any magical thought were to probe into it, it would immediately be distorted and destroyed.

"Lei Wanlong of the Xuanlei Sect requests an audience with the Douhuang. The situation is extremely critical, and we beg for your assistance!"

Lei Wanlong's figure flashed as he flew out of the bright silver ship, then bowed respectfully to the island in front of him and shouted loudly.

Shi Xiu and the others were puzzled, wondering which side the Dou Huang belonged to.
Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Lei Wanlong. It was an old man with white hair and a youthful face. He looked ordinary, but this also showed that the old man was very strong and his strength was unfathomable.

"I've heard that Cheng Yinsha has descended to this world. You're facing a life-or-death crisis, why aren't you seeking her help? Why are you coming to me?" the old man said calmly.

Lei Wanlong sighed, his face filled with grief: "Lord Silver Emperor was just killed by a native of this world named Han Qing. This man is ruthless and wanted to kill us all. He is probably in hot pursuit right now. I had no choice but to come and ask for your help, senior." (End of Chapter)
