I Can See Your Combat Power

North Mountain community, Wind Media Department

Martial Ancestors on protection missions generally carry a piece of the Soul Jade duo, using it to swiftly communicate the status of protectees. If the sub-Soul Jade remains unaffected, it means the target is safe. Martial artists resonating the mother Jade with varying spiritual power quantities cause the sub-Jade to resonate as well. This capability was researched thoroughly after its discovery, making it an effective communication tool.

In the Wind Media Department, there are special chambers for Soul Jades, each corresponding to one Martial Ancestor. They use the resonance feature of the Soul Jades to send people to rescue Martial Ancestors who have escaped using the Xuanji Jade but are critically injured and unable to return.

The sub-Soul Jade brought by Tang Qian has been constantly resonating. The information denoted by the resonance frequency left the soul jade supervisor of the Wind Media Department aghast. He urgently informed the department head Tang Feng: “Director, there are problems with Tang Qian’s protector mission. It’s at an urgent and critical level!”

Missions are usually divided into three danger levels by Martial Ancestors: non-lethal urgency, lethal but non-urgent, and both urgent and lethal.

Simply put, non-lethal urgency refers to a sudden situation that the protector faces, such as conflicts, last-minute mission changes, or losing the protectee. This category concerns changes concerning the target, not the protector.

Lethal but non-urgent means that the protector deems the target to be in impending danger but has sufficient time to react, wait for assistance, or negotiate. Some situations allow the protectors to escape with the targets directly. This type of resonance often requests elevated protective authority from the clan.

If the former two resonance frequencies serve to communicate with the Wind Media Department, then the third type- both urgent and lethal- denotes a desperate call for help. It is typically triggered when encountering forces and dangers Martial Ancestors cannot resist. However, most Martial Ancestors able to undertake covert protection are well-versed in protective tactics, capable of holding their own against typical Fierce Realm squads. Hence, the severity of a situation that produces the third type of resonance is evident.

The protectee of Tang Qian, whom the Wind Media Department knows well, is Tang Luo – currently first on the Tang Clan’s protection list, which means guarding him at all costs.

As soon as Tang Feng received the news, he issued an order: “Inform the Tang Sen, the First Head of the Martial Hall, Tang Zuo – the Sect Head of Dark Thunder Hall, the clan leader Tang Zhi and Zu Tang, the Head of the Clan. Immediately assemble a response squad for support at the Red Cloud Mountain and alert the commander of Divine Warrior guard, standby alert for the entire army!”

The Divine Warrior guard is a regiment created by the Tang Clan’s martial artists over many years. Although the numbers are small, each of them peak transcendents with several leaders being Fierce Realm powerhouses. They are the top vassal power in times of external conflict. Although less famous than the Mi Clan’s Fairy Bird Feather Guard, Tang Clan’s Divine Warriors Guard are a top power in the western Longzhou.

Since moving to North Mountain, though the Tang Clan’s Wind Media Department lost a good portion of its ears and eyes, internal communication speed is extremely fast. Within a mere moment, the message delivered through the Wind Media channel appeared on the desks of all the Tang Clan’s important personnel, including Tang Sen who was responsible for constructing defensive fortifications and flood prevention on the outermost periphery of North Mountain.

The moment the First Head of the Martial Hall, Tang Sen, received the news, he took flight and flew straight to the east. Sound barriers exploded in the sky above North Mountain several times over.

With Tang Sen’s flight speed, it would take less than half an hour to reach Red Cloud Mountain tens of miles from North Mountain. He couldn’t care less about the commotion his full-speed flight was causing at that moment.

The fast flight, tearing through space, enveloped Tang Sen in a layer of white fog, making him look like a fog umbrella cutting through the sky. He rapidly approached the east and soon saw the Red Cloud Mountain range.

As Tang Sen was ready to cross hastily, disregarding the massive consumption of spiritual power, a green silhouette of divine wood blocked his path and collided with Tang Sen who had already broken the sound barrier.

The sturdy greenwood Fierce Evil Body instantly shattered upon the collision, and Tang Sen was also blown away by the tremendous force. Even with his robust body, he somersaulted hundreds of meters in the sky before dissolving the momentum.

Blocking the path to Red Cloud Mountains was none other than the head of Mi Clan’s Martial Hall – Mi Hai!

After the Mi clan’s Wind Media Department deduced that Mi Yang had gone to trouble Tang Luo, a senior Wind Media official immediately relayed this information to the Clan Chief Mi Jin and Vice Clan Chief Mi Shen who were planning Xiao Ziyu’s assassination. As they read the message, they didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

They had indeed considered directly killing Tang Luo since he had been staying at Red Cloud Mountain for a while. But based on the fight with Jiang Lin, they realized that Tang Luo could offer significant resistance even when attacked by a Fierce Realm. That’s why they settled for assuring Xiao Jinlin’s cooperation to jointly oppose the Tang Clan in the upcoming fight half a month from now, instead of taking direct action.

However, just when the plan was still being devised and perpetrated by only a few individuals, including Clan Chief Mi Jin and Vice Clan Chief Mi Shen, as well as several Mi Clan Martial Ancestors deeply involved in curse research, this curveball was thrown their way.

If it were not for Mi Yang being one of the top powerhouses of the Mi Clan, and the strongest candidate for breaking through the King Realm and attaining Grandmaster status, they really would like to knock on the guy’s head to find out what he was thinking.

Now, since the deed had already been done, blame had no purpose. According to Mi Yang’s actions, the Mi clan needed to respond. Sending more Fierce Realm fighters would inevitably insult Xiao Jinlin. If Mi Yang’s revenge for his grandson was justified, the Mi Clan dispatching additional fighters to Red Cloud Mountain would appear as a breach of Xiao Jinlin’s declaration of peace and neutrality, suggesting that they simply disregarded the prohibition of the Western Xiling’s number one powerhouse. In that case, the cunning Tang Zhi definitely could convince Xiao Jinlin to align with the Tang Clan.

If Xiao Jinlin’s forces stand on the Tang Clan’s side, forming a pincer attack with the alliance at North Mountain, against South Ridge Beast Valley, it would give the Mi Clan, now with seven large clans under them, a major headache. Xiao Jinlin, being an elite martial artist capable of opening a battlefield on his own, can easily kill ordinary Fierce Realm fighters, especially when the Ling Power is abundant in the three Monument Dragon Diagrams..
