Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 1252 An Unprecedented Operation

Yan Jin stopped there, and his master could guess what was to come.

Yan Su pondered for a moment, then gasped.

"Could it be that Lin Feng's talent is truly abnormal, just as everyone says?"

"Master, Shu Fengting was probably not much different from us back then, was he?"

Yan Su finally nodded slowly, acknowledging that the matter was somewhat serious.

"Master, there's something even more surprising..."

"explain."

"It is said that the chief elder of the Wuli Xinmen (无理心门) overseas, Tokuri Ryuu, once searched everywhere for Shufuting (舒风亭), the sect leader of the Wunianliu (无念流门), Tsuruta Gen (鹤田元), once fought with a young cultivator named Kikawa (木川), and the chief elder of the Wunianliu (无念流门), Oni-maki Shingo (鬼卷真吾), is also searching everywhere for that Kikawa..."

Yan Su interrupted him, frowning and glaring at Yan Jin.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

“Master, I think that both Shu Fengting and Mu Chuan are very similar to this Lin Feng in the descriptions I’ve heard. Besides, with so many advanced cultivators, is it really that difficult to find one person?”

"Oh? You mean they're all the same person?"

He nodded solemnly and earnestly.

Yan Su stroked his beard, looked at the cave entrance ahead, and fell into deep thought.

"This Lin Feng is indeed extraordinary; no wonder he has been able to escape danger time and time again."

“Master, he is not only extraordinary, but quite extraordinary. If we want to investigate his violation of the rules, we must go all out according to the rules of the sect and hurry up.”

Yan Su nodded: "This matter must be reported to the sect leader. It seems I must make the trip myself."

Yan Jin hurriedly said, "Master, please be careful. It would be best to cooperate with other sects in this matter."

Yan Su looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Master, have you ever considered that those people like Tsuruta Gen, Onimaki Shingo, and Waterfall Hajime are not easy to deal with?"

Yan Su remained silent. He knew in his heart that the people his disciple mentioned were all top figures, high-level cultivators in reclusive sects, and on par with himself.

So many people couldn't do anything to Lin Feng, so if I go alone, it'll probably be a wasted trip.

Whether there is any danger or not is another matter.

Of course, these reclusive sect cultivators never imagined that they would face personal danger in the mortal world.

"Alright, let's see what the sect leader has to say. You should hurry up and start cultivating. Look at your progress, you've been left half a mountain behind everyone else."

After Yan Su finished speaking, he stepped out of the house.

Yan Jin shook his head with a wry smile. He had talked for so long, but his master still scolded him.

At the same time, both the Taihang Sword-shaped Sect and the Qinling Zhongxing Sect received intelligence and realized the seriousness of the situation.

The three major sects reacted in unison, immediately submitting the matter to their respective sect leaders.

After an emergency discussion, the three major sects made further horizontal connections.

Ultimately, each of the three major sects sent a high-ranking cultivator to participate in the operation to eliminate Lin Feng.

Yan Su still leads the Zhengyi Sect.

Zhongxingmen is headed by Elder Guiju.

The Sword-Shaped Sect also sent an elder named Duan Li.

Kunyu Mountain no longer needs to send anyone out, as Chief Elder Ye Haishan and Discipline Elder Shu Qin are already outside; they only need to send someone to inform them.

Lin Feng's Zhenxi Army's series of victories attracted the attention of reclusive sects, leading to many speculations.

This joint operation by reclusive sects is unprecedented in the past few centuries, and the fact that multiple high-level cultivators have come out of seclusion to take action makes it an unprecedentedly grand event.

They were of one mind: they would not rest until they had dealt with Lin Feng.

Unaware of the impending disaster, Lin Feng was still in his command post in Fu Ning City, pondering how to quickly restore the population of the vast southern territories. Only with a population could production be restored, and only with restored production could economic development be discussed.

He first needs to raise a large amount of money, formulate preferential policies, and demonstrate the strength of the Zhenxi Army. Only by using these three methods simultaneously can he attract the original residents to return or attract more people to settle here.

The Zhenxi Army's several great victories in sweeping away the pirates have probably spread throughout the entire Dazong territory, including the court and the public.

According to intelligence, especially among the people of the eight prefectures in Zhenxi, it has become the talk of the town in Tianjin, a topic of conversation in the streets and alleys, and everyone knows about it.

This problem is easy to solve. Without any propaganda, people will know how powerful the Zhenxi Army is, and the people will feel from the bottom of their hearts that the Zhenxi Army is safe wherever it is.

The second issue is the preferential policies.

The policies must be even better than those of the eight prefectures in the west to attract people to settle in the south of Dazong, regardless of the long distance and high mountains.

This requires Lin Feng to gather those civil officials and have a thorough discussion before it can be resolved.

The third and biggest problem is where to get such a large sum of money?

The southern territory of Dazong was much richer than other places, especially the coastal areas, where the climate and environment were very suitable for human habitation, crops could be harvested multiple times a year, and water and aquatic resources were abundant.

These are all huge advantages.

Pei Qiyin brought in tea and saw Lin Feng frowning, writing something at his desk.

She shook her head and sighed inwardly.

"Your Highness, would you like to rest for a while?"

Lin Feng listened without looking up, and his pen continued to move.

Pei Qiyin handed a cup of hot tea to Lin Feng.

"I've seen a lot in my life, but I've never seen a prince work so personally. Shouldn't these tasks be done by Wencheng and the others?"

Lin Feng's view was blocked by her tea, so he had to stop what he was doing.

"I just wanted to do more work."

"Your Highness, even if you work yourself to exhaustion, your efficiency will not be very high."

Lin Feng was taken aback and glanced at Pei Qiyin.

"Hey, so you're talking about efficiency now?"

"Being influenced by the prince all the time, he knows a little bit about everything."

Lin Feng put down his pen, took the teacup, and leaned back.

"Then tell me, what is the most efficient way to do it?"

Pei Qiyin straightened her expression.

"Your Highness, you only need to give us the general direction. The specific terms will be left for the civil officials to ponder, supplement, and improve before being submitted to Your Highness for review."

After speaking, Pei Qiyin looked at Lin Feng with her bright black eyes, waiting for his evaluation.

“Well said, that’s how work should be done. But right now there are no officials here, and the southern part of Dazong is almost a no-man’s land. Where are we going to find people?”

“Transfer them from the west side of the town.”

"We're all in the same boat right now, so who's the right person to fill the position?"

Pei Qiyin smiled mischievously: "This matter still needs to be left to Wencheng to rack his brains for."

Lin Feng slapped his forehead: "That's right, look at my brain, I'm so busy I've lost my mind."

"If Your Highness agrees, I will go and give the order."

"Hmm, you can arrange it as you see fit. Let me rest for a while."

As he spoke, Lin Feng picked up his teacup, took a sip, and closed his eyes.

Pei Qiyin wrinkled her nose at him, then turned and quietly left the room.

After resting for a while, Lin Feng went to check on the battlefield situation in Luocheng.

The Imperial Guards and the pirates are currently locked in a fierce battle, and Lin Feng has no intention of getting involved. He will wait until they determine a winner before dealing with the victor.

Having just put down the battlefield of Los Angeles, I suddenly remembered my second question.

The first and third questions have been resolved, but the only remaining question is where to get that large sum of money.
