Without leaving his home, his reputation spread throughout the entire market.
This was exactly the effect Zhang Yuhe wanted.
Having the reputation of a master weapon refiner will not only earn you more respect.
That's the key point.
No one will ever again connect his death with that of Ouyang Lishan and others.
Who would have thought that the kind-hearted Master Zhang would be the ruthless character who wiped out more than ten True Immortals of the Ouyang family with a single move?
Nobody would have expected that.
With Xie Mingyuan added to the mix, and given the previously disseminated information about the fog of war, no one would connect his fate with the fall of Ouyang Lishan and the others.
...
Time passed slowly.
While taking on weapon-refining jobs, Zhang Yuhe quietly stayed in his cave to cultivate.
On this day, his expression suddenly changed, and the Immortal Transmission Mirror appeared in his hand.
After casting a spell.
A projection of Liu Haitao appeared in the Immortal Transmission Mirror.
"A small trade fair will be held at my residence tomorrow. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Zhang would be interested in attending?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuhe's brows furrowed slightly.
Why did Liu Haitao seek him out?
Although he is now somewhat well-known in Ji'an City.
However, he and Liu Haitao didn't have any real relationship; they had only met once at most.
As for Xie Mingyuan, Liu Haitao was asked to look after him in the market.
That was just a polite remark.
If he takes it seriously, he's a fool.
But since someone invited me, I'll go check it out.
Anyway, he's not Xie Mingyuan.
Xie Mingyuan was caught in the vortex, with so many people watching him, and he was completely unable to move.
Even though more than a hundred years have passed.
However, the Ouyang family did not give up and continued to send people to keep watch outside his cave every day.
They wanted to use Xie Mingyuan to expose the Golden Immortal behind him.
This made it very inconvenient for Zhang Yuhe to visit Xie Mingyuan.
They can only communicate through the Immortal Transmission Mirror.
However, it's fine if Zhang Yuhe goes out on his own.
The Ouyang family members weren't watching him.
At least that's how it appears on the surface.
As long as he doesn't leave the market area, he'll definitely be safe.
Most importantly.
A century has passed, and the Primordial Chaos Return to One Divine Power has long since cooled down. Even if the Ouyang family really abandons all pretense...
He was not afraid at all.
He might not be able to defeat a Golden Immortal cultivator for the time being.
However, once the Primordial Chaos Unification Divine Power is activated, it should be possible to escape.
...
the next day.
Zhang Yuhe arrived at the outside of a magnificent mansion.
Upon seeing his arrival, Liu Haitao quickly went outside to greet him, speaking politely.
"I am deeply honored that Brother Zhang has graced me with his presence. I was mistaken about his abilities last time."
"I never imagined that Brother Zhang would have such a high level of skill in weapon crafting."
Zhang Yuhe quickly replied modestly.
"Senior Brother Liu, you're too kind. It's just a little trick, nothing to mention."
After exchanging pleasantries, the two soon arrived at a small pavilion on the lake.
At this time, many true immortal cultivators had gathered in the pavilion, including He Xingfa.
Upon seeing Zhang Yuhe arrive, He Xingfa immediately stood up and greeted him politely.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang has arrived as well. Please come and sit here."
The others also stood up, and everyone treated him with great courtesy.
"So it's Master Zhang from the Dao Sheng Sect. Please have a seat."
"With Master Zhang participating in this gathering, I'm sure everyone will gain something from it."
"Of course, Master Zhang must have a lot of good stuff. I'm just afraid we can't afford to trade for it, hehe."
"Haha, I've made special preparations for this trade fair, and I'm sure I'll be able to acquire a suitable immortal artifact."
...
With Zhang Yuhe's arrival, the atmosphere at the scene became extremely lively.
Who wouldn't want to befriend a highly skilled weapon refiner?
Even if there is no immediate need, it's hard to guarantee that they won't have to ask Zhang Yuhe for help in the future.
Therefore, everyone treated him with extreme politeness.
This made Zhang Yuhe, who always preferred to keep a low profile, feel very uncomfortable.
Once most of the monks had arrived, they began a lively discussion.
More than two thousand years have passed since the last gathering, but nothing unusual has happened on the Chaos Continent.
The imagined chaotic beast tide has not yet appeared.
As for the terrifying catastrophe of immortals falling, there was not a single sign of it.
Therefore, everyone naturally focused their discussion on the fall of Ouyang Lishan and others.
After all, this incident happened just over a hundred years ago, and it occurred near the market town.
People can't help but pay attention.
"It's a pity about Ouyang Lishan. I never thought that a True Immortal at the Great Perfection would also perish."
"Yes, the relationship between the Ouyang family and the Dao Sheng Sect was originally extremely tense, but after this incident, they seem to have become more cautious."
"Hmph, if you ask me, the Ouyang family deserves it."
"Back when Ancestor Lu was around, they were as obedient as dogs. Now that they see Ancestor Lu, who hasn't shown up for hundreds of thousands of years, they've become arrogant."
"Yes, I don't know what Ouyang Tianchen is thinking. What if Ancestor Lu shows up? How will they handle the situation?"
"Could it be that Patriarch Lu has truly perished?"
"Who can say for sure?"
"Do you think it was Ancestor Lu Yunfei who killed Ouyang Lishan and the others?"
"That can't be right."
"It's hard to say for sure."
"That's true. It's just a pity that Brother Xie didn't come this time. Otherwise, we could have just asked him."
"Haha, Brother Xie has had a tough time lately. With Ouyang Tianyue, the Golden Immortal Ancestor of the Ouyang family, watching over him at the door every day, he doesn't even dare to leave the house."
"The Ouyang family is really going too far."
"They tried to intercept Brother Xie, but were killed instead, and now they still won't let Brother Xie go."
"Alas, what can we do? The Dao Saint Sect is weak right now."
"Hopefully, things won't get chaotic in the waters off Ji'an."
"I hope so."
...
Most of the people present were disciples of the Nine Immortals Sect and the Myriad Beasts Sect.
In addition, there are a few individuals who are wandering immortals in the market during the event.
Therefore, when it came to the deaths of Ouyang Lishan and others, no one held back.
They even chatted while secretly observing Zhang Yuhe's expression.
After all, Zhang Yuhe was also a disciple of the Dao Sheng Sect, so he was practically one of the parties involved.
In their view, Zhang Yuhe should have been aware of this matter.
However, Zhang Yuhe acted as if he were an outsider.
Listening to the discussion, he simply smiled and nodded without saying a word.
He even felt a bit emotional.
These people have incredibly wild imaginations.
It's amazing that he could make the connection to his ancestor, Lu Yunfei.
That's thinking way too far ahead.
If Ancestor Lu Yunfei really returns.
Why would they bother with small fry like Ouyang Lishan?
They probably already attacked the Ouyang family's territory and even reached Tianchen Island.
Eight hundred thousand years ago, Ancestor Lu was already a Golden Immortal at the Great Perfection stage.
Even if he hasn't made a breakthrough after all these years.
It can also easily suppress the Ouyang family.
There's no need to sneak around and cause trouble like this.
Why not just charge straight in and solve everything?
