"Has no one arrived yet?" Chu Ming squinted his eyes, and two beams of light flashed from his gaze. "Yes, no one has arrived yet." Li Yi responded honestly. He had already known the outcome before sending the message and had reminded Chu Ming, but Chu Ming insisted on sending the message again. "Go invite Steward Wang Qi and Steward Zhao Bin, tell them to come to the main hall for a meeting." Chu Ming instructed Li Yi calmly. "Yes, Sir!" Li Yi cupped his fists respectfully and retreated from the peak of Snow Peak. Chu Ming tidied up his white robe and walked towards the main hall at a leisurely pace. After half a stick of incense, Wang Qi and Zhao Bin slowly walked in from outside the main hall. "Greetings, Sir!" In the martial world, strength is everything. The two regarded their strength as inferior to Chu Ming’s, so they naturally dared not show any neglect to him. "Rise." Chu Ming said flatly, glancing at Li Yi, who immediately withdrew sensibly. "How many combat personnel does Snow Peak have?" Chu Ming asked. "Snow Peak has a total of 463 combat personnel, including 34 martial artists in the Transcendence Realm, 427 martial artists in the True Dao Realm, and only the two of us in the Guiyuan Realm." Wang Qi cupped his fists and spoke respectfully. Upon hearing this, Chu Ming nodded slightly. Snow Peak’s strength was even greater than he had anticipated. The number of True Dao Realm martial artists alone was double that of any one of the Five Sects, while there were relatively fewer Transcendence Realm martial artists, as the Celestial Travel Sect looked down on Transcendence Realm martial artists and would not accept them even as peripheral members. The only difference from the Five Sects was the high-end combat power. From Elder Ku, he learned that sects like Burning Fire Valley had two martial artists in the Guiyuan Realm, and both were above the Guiyuan Realm Third Layer. "Go and summon all the combat personnel, target... Burning Fire Valley!" Chu Ming said calmly, but anyone could hear the chill in his words. "Sir, but..." Wang Qi felt anxious. "Don’t worry, I’ll handle the ancestor of Burning Fire Valley!" Chu Ming said slowly, rising slowly from his chair. A powerful Qi burst from his body, and his gaze revealed endless coldness. "Yes, Sir!" Wang Qi and Zhao Bin withdrew to gather people. Chu Ming lightly took out the Soul-Controlling Conch from his Storage Ring and began blowing it gently. Threads of blue sound waves swirled out. A terrifying shadow swooped down from the sky, landing in front of Chu Ming; it was the Sky Eagle. Chu Ming gently stroked the feathers of the Sky Eagle, which closed its eyes and emitted a low sound. Half a stick of incense passed, and Wang Qi and Zhao Bin had gathered everyone, waiting quietly at the base of Snow Peak. "Sir, shall we deploy the Red Fire Battleship?" Zhao Bin glanced at the Sky Eagle, his pupils contracting slightly, instantly realizing that the Sky Eagle was Chu Ming’s trump card. A single Sky Eagle was enough to resist an ordinary Guiyuan Realm Fourth Layer martial artist, and being a flying magical beast, the Sky Eagle could come and go freely, without any constraints. Each of the Five Sects had its own trump card, such as Cyan Yang Sect’s Cyan Yang Battleship and Burning Fire Valley’s Burning Fire Battleship, while Snow Peak also possessed the Red Fire Battleship. The Red Fire Battleship, entrusted to Snow Peak by the Celestial Travel Sect, was intended to intimidate the Five Great Sects. The Red Fire Battleship had tremendous power, equipped with 24 cannons powered by middle-grade Spirit Stones, each shot capable of severely injuring a True Dao Realm martial artist. "Deploy it!" Chu Ming said calmly, tossing the token from his Storage Ring to Wang Qi. Deploying the Red Fire Battleship required authority, and Wang Qi alone was insufficient. Wang Qi took the token and quickly turned to leave. After half a stick of incense, a massive object slowly flew out from the bottom of Snow Peak. This massive object was a terrifying battleship, not at all inferior to Cyan Yang Sect’s Cyan Yang Battleship, with black cannons built all around, giving a lethal dread at a glimpse. This was the Red Fire Battleship. Swish! Swish! Swish! Shadows from the ground swarmed onto the Red Fire Battleship like locusts. Chu Ming leaped onto the Sky Eagle’s back, looking towards Burning Fire Valley. He held grudges. Back then, the sudden attack by the Burning Fire Daoist nearly cost him his life, if not for Elder Ku’s Profound Destiny Grass, he might not be alive today. "Starting with Burning Fire Valley to kill the chicken and scare the monkey!" Chu Ming silently thought. Snow Peak’s commotion was significant and uncovered, naturally drawing the attention of the Cyan Yang Sect and others in the palace. "You all stay here, I’ll follow and take a look." Elder Ku turned and spoke to Guan Chengzhi and others, then flew toward Chu Ming and his people. Chu Ming rode the Sky Eagle, flying ahead of the Red Fire Battleship. On the battleship, martial artists were densely packed, each emitting powerful Qi. In just an hour, Snow Peak’s group arrived at Burning Fire Valley, making no attempt to hide and hovering directly in the air above the valley, while thunderous sounds echoed from above. Swish! Swish! Swish! Red shadows rushed out from Burning Fire Valley, floating silently in the air, staring vigilantly at Snow Peak’s group. "What brings Lord Chu to our Burning Fire Valley?" The crowd parted, and three figures in red robes stepped forward. The leading one had gray hair, full of spirit, and his appearance caused the Power of Fire in the air to boil, enveloping the area with a sense of oppressive power. Behind him, Chu Ming recognized a familiar figure, the dark-faced Burning Fire Daoist. The other was a burly middle-aged man, his eyes wary as he scanned Snow Peak’s personnel, likely the Valley Master Heaven-Burning. "I suspect there are spies from the Demonic Organization in Burning Fire Valley and have come to search!" Chu Ming said indifferently, lightly patting the Sky Eagle beneath him, which let out a piercing cry, forcing the disciples of Burning Fire Valley to retreat three steps in fear. "There are no demonic spies in Burning Fire Valley, nor will we let you search. You should return from where you came!" Black Flame Daoist looked around at Snow Peak’s people, his heart involuntarily skipping a beat and spoke calmly. "I now not only suspect there are demonic spies in Burning Fire Valley but also that you collude with the Demonic Organization and intend harm to the Great Yan Kingdom." Chu Ming’s words were shocking, directly accusing Burning Fire Valley, making its people grit their teeth in anger. "Nonsense!!" Burning Fire Daoist could no longer hold back, stepping forward angrily from behind Black Flame Daoist.
