Chapter 626: Chapter 191: The Collapsing World! The Legendary Daoist Fan Wu! (10,000-word mega Chapter, please subscribe)_6
Some would say they got lucky; they managed to encounter the legendary Daoist Fan Wu and very likely shared a conversation with him.
You know, even I, the Chief Flag Officer of the Astral Inquisition, haven’t met the man!
At this thought...
I actually felt a hint of envy!
...
Meanwhile.
On a rather spacious official road within the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Liu Feng could only squeeze into the same carriage with Xing Fengzi, but thankfully, the carriages from the Imperial Palace were quite spacious. The carriage Xing Fengzi drove could actually comfortably seat three or four people, without any issue.
Now, with just two people crammed in, it was still easy, without any feeling of congestion, and even seeming rather roomy inside.
Sitting in the carriage, Liu Feng occasionally turned back to look behind him.
It wasn’t Yun Jiuqing that he was looking at.
But rather, the coffin with two wheels that was being pulled behind Yun Jiuqing’s carriage.
He wasn’t quite sure what it was.
Though it appeared to be an ordinary, big red coffin, anyone with a bit of sense could tell that a group like Daoist Fan Wu’s wouldn’t be carting around just an ordinary coffin, right?
This coffin was definitely not simple!
"This is the Destiny Coffin!" Seemingly noticing the confusion in his eyes, Xing Fengzi took the initiative to explain, "As you see, this is not an ordinary coffin. In a strict sense, it could be considered a peculiar entity."
"Don’t be fooled by its calm appearance, even I might not be a match for it. Ever since it’s been following Daoist Priest Fan, it hasn’t suffered any damage."
It’s notable that both Yun Jiuqing and Xing Fengzi had sustained quite a few injuries over this period of time.
After all, the residual force from Daoist Fan Wu’s battles with formidable enemies was too terrifying, making it extremely difficult for these two not to be injured.
But the Destiny Coffin was different; Xing Fengzi had never seen any damage on it, except for the two broken wheels.
That alone was enough to prove that the Destiny Coffin was not as harmless as it seemed.
It definitely held some extraordinary qualities!
It just hadn’t shown them yet.
Time.
Passed.
In what seemed like the blink of an eye after days of relentless travel, five days had gone by. These five days weren’t spent traveling day and night without pause; Fan Wu would still occasionally stop to rest.
After all, even the sturdy high-headed horses pulling the carriages have their limits.
If one didn’t want to work these horses to death, they needed to be given a break.
Now.
Noticing that the high-headed horses pulling the carriages had begun to breath heavily, Daoist Fan Wu gently tugged the reins, coaxing the two horses to a halt. Xing Fengzi and people like Yun Jiuqing behind him immediately stopped as well.
Fan Wu looked up at the sky, noting that it was already evening, and a county town lay not far ahead.
About two to three hundred steps away.
Yun Jiuqing, gazing at the nearby county town, felt it was very familiar, and suddenly, as if struck by a realization, she exclaimed in shock, "Isn’t that... Guyuan County?"
Unexpectedly, their journey home seemed faster than the trip out.
On second thought, it made sense.
After all, unlike the trip there, they hadn’t encountered nearly as many incidents.
No such trifles to distract them.
They naturally walked even faster.
"That means we have already left the central regions of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and we are back in the Nanjun of the Great Zhou Dynasty!" Yun Jiuqing exclaimed excitedly, "Because Guyuan County is right at the edge of Nanjun. Once we pass Guyuan County, we will be in the central regions of the Great Zhou Dynasty!"
"Guyuan County..." Xing Fengzi asked in surprise, "Is that the place you told me about, Yun Scholar, where Daoist Fan Wu slew a God of the Earth?"
"That’s right!" Yun Jiuqing replied, "I saw it with my own eyes, Daoist Priest Fan killed a God of the Earth!"
Recalling those terrifying scenes from back then, Yun Jiuqing still felt somewhat emotional.
The events of that time felt as if they had happened just yesterday.
And in her memory, that was also Daoist Priest Fan’s first time Slaying Gods!
"Ah?" Liu Feng, who was sandwiched between the two of them, looked bewildered, "What... What God of the Earth?!"
Yun Jiuqing specially explained it to him once again.
Her explanation did not embellish or exaggerate, nor did she go out of her way to sing high praises of Fan Wu.
Because there was no need for any embellishment.
Just a straightforward description... and one could already sense the powerful presence of Daoist Priest Fan!
Truly unmatched!
"Hiss!!!" After listening, Liu Feng couldn’t help but gasp in shock, his face full of astonishment, "Daoist Fan Wu, he... he not only killed an Evil God, but he also killed a righteous deity of the Heavenly Court, a God of the Earth of Guyuan County?!"
"Yes!" Yun Jiuqing said, "Do you think I need to spin such a lie to deceive you?"
"..." Liu Feng was completely dumbfounded!
Could Daoist Fan Wu be so audacious as to dare kill even the righteous deities of the Heavenly Court?
That was a God of the Earth!
Not some stray cat or dog!
Not an Evil God!
After Daoist Fan Wu killed an Evil God, maybe the likes of the Heavenly Court would reward him if they heard about it?
But the problem is, Daoist Fan Wu also killed a God of the Earth, and if the Heavenly Court in the heavens were to know about such a thing...
What would happen?
It was unimaginable!
"Don’t worry," Yun Jiuqing assured, "That God of the Earth was actually polluted by a Witch Immortal, so you don’t need to worry about being targeted by the Heavenly Court for following Daoist Priest Fan."
Liu Feng: "..."
Although she said that, who wouldn’t be afraid should such a thing really happen?
At this moment.
The horses pulling the carriage, with their heads held high, walked at a leisurely pace toward Guyuan County. By the time the carriages entered Guyuan County, the sun had completely set beyond the hills, and it was already night.
Fan Wu and his companions found a rather nice inn in Guyuan County, intending to rest there for the night.
Then.
"Daoist... Daoist Priest Fan?!" A member of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau who was also in the same inn saw several people entering and her eyes widened in shock, "You... What are you doing here?"
Fan Wu saw the member of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau.
He was also taken aback for a moment.
"Shen Ji Yue?"
