Chapter 369: Chapter 369: Shocking News, Glaze King (Part 5)

“Ladies and gentlemen, the floating platforms cannot fly automatically. All cultivators who are not on a special mission should cast their flight spells and pull the entire platform towards Whitefloat City,” Gong Qingqiu said aloud.
“Yes!”
Groups of three grabbed the iron chains attached to the platform and began to pull.
However, their speed was slow.
They could fly only a few meters per second.
At this rate, even if they traveled day and night, it would take several days to reach Whitefloat City.
“By my calculations, the entire mission will need at least half a month to complete,” Li Zilong said as he flew in front, using a silver spear to lead an iron chain, single-handedly pulling a small platform with a hundred-meter diameter.
Below it was the last floating sphere.
It carried food to ensure that the people and livestock of Yanyun Thirteen Cities would not starve on the way.
“This is really tiring!”
Some disciples had pulled for just a quarter of an hour and already felt a significant increase in spiritual energy consumption, almost unable to continue.
Others already had sweat on their foreheads.
As time went on, large floating platforms with many high-cultivation individuals aboard had risen a kilometer from the ground, covering a distance of over a hundred li.
Soon, the floating platforms passed over the old site of Yanyun Thirteen Cities and appeared above other cities.
“Look up at the sky.”
“What is that?”
“It seems there’s a flag inserted there with ‘Misty Sect’ written in three large characters!”
“It’s the Immortal Masters from Misty Sect doing a big operation!”
As they passed, cultivators in the cities below were deeply shaken, casting awestruck glances at the massive platforms flying overhead.

Atop Misty Peak, Ye Feng received a notification.
“It seems they are in action,”
Ye Feng smiled as he looked in the direction of Yanyun Thirteen Cities, feeling gratified.
With Gong Qingqiu and Li Zilong in command, he was confident that there would be no hiccups during the relocation.
Moreover, he had personally crafted a formation flag and given it to Li Zilong, which was planted on the leading small platform with “Misty Sect” written in three large characters, enough to deter any petty thieves.
In the high skies.
Many cultivators flying on swords saw the long trail of platforms flying high in the sky and were immensely shocked.
“What in the world happened?”
“It’s people from Misty Sect!”
Traveling cultivators from major forces were surprised and went closer out of curiosity, and after some inquiries, they learned that Yanyun Thirteen Cities were to be integrated into Whitefloat City.
“City merger, are they aiming to challenge the Two-Star Forces?”
Among the passing cultivators, many in the Element Gathering Realm knew many secrets and were deeply shaken once again.
Soon, the news spread.
County King City, Divine Wind City, Myriad Islands Alliance, and other places also received the news in turn.
“Are you saying that Misty Sect has found dozens of large earth and stone platforms capable of aerial flight, and they’ve emptied Yanyun Thirteen Cities in one go?”
“Yes, the scene was truly awe-inspiring!”
“This must be another brilliant tactic by Ye Feng!”
Heads of major forces were startled upon receiving the news.
They soared into the sky, transformed into streaks of light, and headed towards the inevitable path of Li Zilong and the others.
Then, from hundreds of li away, they could see those large platforms flying in line with the clouds.
From a distance, they appeared like Heavenly Palaces, invoking a yearning in the heart.
“What a grand move!”
“Ye Feng of Misty Sect truly lives up to his reputation. Not only is he powerful, but his smart tactics continue unstoppably, simply miraculous!”
The Sect Masters widened their eyes, filled with mixed emotions.
Some were bitter, some astonished, some delighted.
Some Sect Masters even considered the idea of acquiring some floating platforms for themselves and planned to pay Ye Feng a personal visit to purchase them.
The news continued to spread.
In the heart of County King City.
Inside a majestic grand hall.
“Floating platforms, capable of carrying tens of millions of catties? The rising Misty Sect is indeed formidable with its myriad methods,” a valiant middle-aged man clad in streamlined battle armor with a short black beard stood up, his voice carrying a commanding presence.
This man was the Commandery Prince of County King City!
“`
A middle-aged man clad in glaze-colored battle armor stepped forward and said, “What a remarkable Floating Platform, this thing is impressive, I plan to pay a visit to Misty Sect.”
“Glaze King, I hope you won’t cause trouble, peace is to be cherished,” the Commandery Prince said gravely.
“I never cause trouble,” affirmed the Glaze King as he walked out.
Whoosh!
He transformed into a glaze-colored streak of light, covering a kilometer in an instant. His incredible speed caused a sonic boom, prompting the cultivators of County King City to look up in amazement.
“It’s the Glaze King!”
“It’s said that his cultivation level has reached the seventh layer of the Spirit Sea Realm, making him one of the few top-notch powerhouses in the entire Southern River Basin.”
The people in County King City discussed among themselves.
County King’s Manor.
Shu Hongyu raised her head, her snow-white hand shielding her forehead from the dazzling sunlight, gazing at the Glaze King’s receding figure.
“Is that direction heading towards… Misty Sect?”
Shu Hongyu slightly furrowed her brows.
Despite her surprise and subconscious desire to stop him, the Glaze King was a figure of great importance—not only was he under the Commandery Prince’s command, but he was also the direct heir of a major family from the capital of Mystique Kingdom.
To put it bluntly, the Glaze King was the watchful eye those powerful families in the capital used to monitor the Commandery Prince.
Shu Hongyu was quite displeased with this man.
Whoosh!
In the sky, the Glaze King flew at breakneck speed.
It wasn’t long before he caught up with Li Zilong’s relocating team. Looking down, the Glaze King realized the platform wasn’t a Spiritual Artifact.
What truly caught his attention was the inverted triangular cone-shaped objects below, exuding an aura of Middle Grade Spiritual Artifacts.
“So it’s a type of Floating Spiritual Instrument!”
“This thing is good, I can get some from Ye Feng of Misty Sect, take them back to the family in Du City, and build our Xu Family a Floating Mountain, dazzling the other major families.”
The Glaze King “Xu Renshan” sneered to himself.
He had no respect for Misty Sect and didn’t plan to purchase with Spirit Stones, but to take them directly!
He had no fear of Misty Sect.
Because he was the Glaze King, strong enough.
Even the Commandery Prince had to show him some courtesy.
Boom!
The Glaze King disdainfully ignored those Floating Platforms, speeding past and generating gusts of wind like invisible blades, slicing through the clouds. The piercing sound of tearing through the air caused discomfort in the ears of those on the platforms.
“It’s the King of the Spirit Sea Realm!”
“That glaze-colored light, it’s the Glaze King!”
Many cultivators flying nearby, upon seeing the rapidly departing light, were thoroughly shocked.
“Elder Gong, do you know who that person is?” Li Zilong, standing on the Silver Spear, sent a message to Gong Qingqiu in the distance.
“That’s the Glaze King. It’s said that this man is from Du City, the direct heir of a powerful family with a Divine Origin Realm sitting in its shadow. Here in our Southern River Basin, he acts arrogantly and domineeringly,” Gong Qingqiu replied in a low voice, with a sense of ominous premonition.
Especially since the direction in which the Glaze King was heading was precisely where Misty Peak was located, her unease grew even more.
Soon, news of the Glaze King passing by spread, causing another stir.
Qingyun Sect.
Hearing that the domineering Glaze King was headed in the direction of Misty Sect, Qingyun Zhenren burst into laughter.
“Ye Feng, letting your wealth show has now attracted the Glaze King’s attention; you’ll find yourself unable to bear the consequences, ha ha ha!”
Qingyun Zhenren laughed heartily.
The flip-flopping Elders by his side also laughed along, their eyes filled with mockery and schadenfreude.
After lunch, Ye Feng rested for a while and then stood up to water the flowers with a can.
Hu Feifei stood by his side, making tea for him.
“Sect Leader, please have some tea.”
“Hmm, thank you.”
Ye Feng took a sip of the tea brewed from the Golden Willow Leaves, feeling refreshed and clear-headed, and commented, “Not bad at all, the taste is quite good. These leaves truly possess a certain capacity for enlightenment.”
Boom!
Suddenly, a majestic presence descended, like a multitude of torrents, shaking the Black and White Chessboard into automatic appearance to block the terrible pressure.
Even so, the Array Plate still cracked.
“Ye Feng, come out and face this King!” a powerful, cold, and commanding voice boomed.
“Daring to cause trouble in our Misty Sect, even cracking the Black and White Chessboard, dammit, I don’t care who you are, I’ll beat you so even your mother won’t recognize you!”
Ye Feng had never been so frustrated, and with anger puffing in his chest, he tossed aside the watering can and soared into the sky with Hu Feifei.
