After returning to the Town Guardian Manor, Zhang Yuhe entered a cultivation chamber.
With a wave of his right hand, five Formation Flags swiftly flew around the cultivation platform.
Zhang Yuhe sat cross-legged on the cultivation platform, then took out a Formation Plate and placed it nearby.
Piles of Spirit Stones were placed around the Formation Flags and the Formation Plate.
After completing all of this,
Zhang Yuhe activated the spell.
"Activate Array."
A blue light curtain slowly rose around the cultivation platform.
As the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array activated, the surrounding Spiritual Qi quickly converged.
Soon, Zhang Yuhe was surrounded by a sea of Spiritual Qi.
"Time to Cultivate."
Zhang Yuhe slowly circulated the Mixed Origin Heavenly Scripture, and countless Spiritual Qi rapidly poured into his Dantian.
"Ah, this is great."
Zhang Yuhe couldn't help but exclaim; the feeling of doubled cultivation efficiency made him somewhat unable to extricate himself.
…
Time slowly passed.
The Yunzhong Prefecture's operation to clear out the remnants of the He and Li Families had never stopped.
Under the leadership of Wang Guofeng, the Qian and Sun Families dispatched a large number of people.
They quickly took control of the dozens of cities each held by the He and Li Families.
Then, they conducted individual investigations in each city.
Any Cultivator belonging to the He or Li Families, regardless of how distant the relationship, was killed one by one.
They understood the Town Guardian Envoy's order clearly.
Extermination.
What does extermination mean?
It means not a single one is left, even if there are eight hundred generations in between, as long as they are Cultivators of the He or Li Families, they are subject to extermination.
Although the ancestral lands of the He and Li Families had already been wiped out by Zhang Yuhe,
As local tyrants who dominated the Yunzhong Prefecture, the He and Li Families had branched out for tens of thousands of years.
The number of Cultivators in their Families was indeed considerable.
To ensure no one escaped, Wang Guofeng even found the Family genealogies of the two families and tracked them down accordingly.
Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng also showed extreme dedication in this matter; they not only dispatched a large number of Family Cultivators,
But the two of them also personally led teams, taking the lead in eliminating the Golden Core Cultivators of the He and Li Families.
As for the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the He and Li Families, most of them had died at the hands of the Horned Demon Clan in Mirror Void City.
Facing the threat of extermination, the He and Li Families launched fierce resistance in various cities.
However, all of this was futile.
Without high-level Cultivators to oversee them, they were completely unable to withstand the attacks of Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng, these two Nascent Soul Cultivators.
A few days later, the clustered Cultivators of the He and Li Families were basically completely wiped out.
However, there were still many Cultivators from these two families scattered in various places.
Many Cultivators from these two families had even gone to develop outside the Yunzhong Prefecture long ago.
Wang Guofeng still did not intend to let these people go; he had Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng send people to hunt them down everywhere.
Not only that, Wang Guofeng also mobilized a large number of players to participate.
However, these players were only recruited by him personally and were not part of the Town Guardian Manor's personnel.
Wang Guofeng allocated a portion of the clean-up proceeds as mission rewards for the players.
The clean-up operation lasted for a full ten years before it began to draw to a close.
…
A certain hall within the Town Guardian Manor.
Wang Guofeng was discussing matters with Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng.
Over these ten years, Wang Guofeng would often summon these two together to summarize the clean-up process.
And to check if there were any remaining remnants.
The three of them chatted and laughed in the hall, the atmosphere was harmonious.
After ten years of getting along, Wang Guofeng had already become close with the Qian and Sun Families.
With his background, dealing with aristocratic families in Yu Fan Heaven was completely effortless for him.
Moreover, with his identity as a Patrol Envoy appointed by Zhang Yuhe, who in this Yunzhong Prefecture would dare not give him Face?
To complete the orders given by Zhang Yuhe, they naturally needed to cooperate wholeheartedly.
Of course, more importantly, they all had common interests.
With the He and Li Families falling, the greatest beneficiaries were naturally the Qian and Sun Families.
They respectively took over the territories and industries of the He and Li Families, allowing the development momentum of their two families to advance further.
As for Wang Guofeng, he naturally did not suffer any losses either.
A tacit understanding had already formed among the three of them.
Territories and industries went to the Qian and Sun Families, but resources and treasures were allocated by Wang Guofeng.
Of course, the portion belonging to the Town Guardian Envoy was untouched by anyone and had been kept aside.
Everyone got what they needed, and everyone was happy.
Qian Weiguang, with a smile on his Face, asked Wang Guofeng,
"Brother Wang, do you know when the Town Guardian Envoy will come out of seclusion?"
"Yes, we haven't seen the Town Guardian Envoy for a long time, I wonder when we will be able to hear his Senior's teachings."
Sun Pengcheng, who was beside him, also quickly chimed in.
When the three of them discussed matters together, they could chat and laugh when talking about other things.
But once they talked about Zhang Yuhe, the Town Guardian Envoy, they all had serious expressions.
They didn't dare to show any hint of joking.
They truly didn't dare.
Zhang Yuhe's strength and methods filled them with awe.
Hearing the two ask about Zhang Yuhe, Wang Guofeng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
This question stumped him.
Over these ten years, Wang Guofeng, like everyone else, had not seen Zhang Yuhe.
Although after going offline, he could indeed contact Zhang Yuhe.
Zhang Yuhe's contact information was available on the Sky Net.
Blue Star wasn't big, a phone call to arrange a meeting place, and they could meet in minutes.
But Wang Guofeng didn't do that.
He had this awareness.
As long as Zhang Yuhe didn't actively seek him out, he wouldn't disturb him.
There really was no suitable reason.
If no major event occurred, going to him might cause Zhang Yuhe's displeasure.
Ten years passed, and all Blue Star players still didn't know that the Town Guardian Envoy of Yunzhong Prefecture was also a player.
It must be said that Wang Guofeng was indeed a tight-lipped person.
Very reliable.
For such a long time, he had never revealed Zhang Yuhe's identity to anyone.
Wang Guofeng was about to speak.
Suddenly, a streak of light flashed past the front of the hall.
The three of them quickly ran out of the hall.
"Was that the Town Guardian Envoy?"
Qian Weiguang asked in a low voice.
"Yes, I definitely wouldn't mistake the Town Guardian Envoy's demeanor."
Even though Zhang Yuhe had flown an unknown distance away by now, Sun Pengcheng still didn't forget to flatter him.
"The Town Guardian Envoy's Qi seems to have grown even stronger."
"That's natural, with the Town Guardian Envoy's divine presence, he must be close to breaking through to the Void Refining Realm."
"Once the Town Guardian Envoy breaks through to the Void Refining Realm, he will become an Elder of the Dao Saint Sect, and it will be difficult for us to see his outstanding demeanor again."
"Yes, yes."
Qian Weiguang and Sun Pengcheng showered Zhang Yuhe with praise.
Wang Guofeng, meanwhile, stood by, deep in thought.
He couldn't sense Zhang Yuhe's Qi at all.
Although Wang Guofeng's cultivation had not lagged over these ten years, he had now cultivated to Golden Core Great Perfection.
As long as the time was right, he could break through to the Nascent Soul Realm at any time.
But Zhang Yuhe was simply too distant for him.
The gap between Golden Core and Soul Transformation cannot be measured by ordinary means.
"He's not really going to break through to the Void Refining Realm, is he?"
Wang Guofeng felt a bit conflicted.
Once Zhang Yuhe broke through to the Void Refining Realm, he would automatically be promoted to an Elder of the Dao Saint Sect.
Then he naturally wouldn't need to continue serving as the Town Guardian Envoy in Yunzhong Prefecture.
If Zhang Yuhe was no longer the Town Guardian Envoy, what would he do?
At this moment, Wang Guofeng felt a little flustered.
He hadn't enjoyed the prestige of the Patrol Envoy enough, and it seemed he was about to be unemployed.
On one hand, Wang Guofeng naturally hoped that Zhang Yuhe's strength would be as strong as possible.
On the other hand, he was somewhat reluctant to give up the job of Patrol Envoy.
This job was not only lucrative but also held a prominent position.
At least in Yunzhong Prefecture, it was.
"I wonder if Senior Zhang will still need me to do things for him after he becomes an Elder of the Dao Saint Sect?"
Wang Guofeng really wanted to always be able to cling to Zhang Yuhe's coattails.
But he knew that to cling to someone else's coattails, he first had to be useful.
Useless people don't deserve to be hangers-on.
Therefore, upon hearing Qian Weiguang mention that Zhang Yuhe might be close to breaking through to the Void Refining Realm,
Wang Guofeng couldn't help but feel conflicted.
