The nearby Hall Master leaned in and whispered, "Why provoke him? He went straight to the Southeast Headquarters to confront Zhao Chief for the sake of his student... It's said that Zhao Shanhe was severely injured by him, and blood was spilled all over the floor..."

"Holy shit!"

Hall Master Wang was shocked, "Is that legendary godly figure him?"

"Who else could it be?" The Hall Master pursed his lips, "I reckon the Chief Steward below is his student... Aren't you trying to make his student look bad in front of his boss? Who else would you be cursing if not him?"

"Damn..."

Hall Master Wang broke into a cold sweat, realizing the man was such a formidable figure.

He was truly untouchable.

"Hmph!"

The old man, Shen Laotou, returned victoriously and sat down, even apologizing to Dong Changfeng, "I've made a fool of myself in front of you, sir."

Dong Changfeng, of course, had heard the commotion outside and recognized Fang Che's voice. A smile had already flashed in his eyes.

Who would've thought that kid could be so amusing...

Hearing Shen Laotou's apology, Dong Changfeng quickly smiled and said, "No harm done, Shen brother. As a great contributor to the continent, I've long admired your name. Your sincere emotions are nothing to laugh at."

This time, it was Shen Laotou's turn to stare in disbelief.

What did I do? Why is Dong Changfeng being so polite to me?

He's a big shot!

Although I, Shen Zhixuan, am... even if I practiced for another hundred years, I wouldn't make it into the top hundred of the Cloud Sword Spectrum. Why am I being treated with such respect?

Dong Changfeng laughed and said to Song Yidao, "The Chief Steward below is quite capable and responsible."

The Hall Master of Bai Pingzhou broke into a cold sweat. What did Dong Changfeng mean by that? Was he addressing the eye medicine incident from earlier?

Song Yidao quickly bowed and smiled, "Not bad... Thank you for the praise, Elder Dong."

A hint of reminiscence flashed in Dong Changfeng's eyes as he said, "A boss like this, who is willing to lose face and be shameless for the sake of his subordinates, is what we all dream of having!"

These words resonated with everyone.

Being in the lower ranks, none of them had reached the top, and they all had numerous bosses above them.

In the end, in the eyes of their respective superiors, they were all just pawns. Who wouldn't want a boss as tough as this young steward? Everyone smiled, "Indeed, if I had a boss like that, I'd wake up laughing in my dreams."

Dong Changfeng laughed, "Since that's the case, let's not keep everyone waiting. After all, with so many stewards protecting me, I feel quite pressured."

"Hahahaha..." Everyone burst into laughter, unable to contain their amusement.

...

Down below, Fang Che also poured himself a bowl of wine.

He raised it towards the hotel and drank it in one go.

Just then, at the moment when the crowd below was at its densest, a powerful aura suddenly emanated from the hotel.

A wave of enlightenment spread like a net, covering everyone nearby.

It was Dong Changfeng bestowing his blessings.

For a cloud-level expert like him, this was a simple and effortless task.

However, for the Warlords, Martial Marquises, Martial Kings, and Martial Emperors below, it was a heavenly blessing.

Each person closed their eyes and concentrated, desperately absorbing these powers.

Dong Changfeng's enlightenment power was boundless, and everyone received a share, but the most concentrated batch was around the hotel.

In other words, it was as if it had a conscious intent, specifically targeting the stewards.

In an instant, everyone entered a state of meditation.

Before the crowd could feel envy, jealousy, or hatred, they all seized the opportunity to absorb the power.

This wave of enlightenment lasted for several breaths, and everyone gradually regained consciousness.

Then, another wave of enlightenment descended, just like the previous one.

Again, the stewards received special attention.

And then, a third wave arrived.

The stewards in the two halls of the Chief Steward's Hall, including Fang Che, were directly blessed three times.

This was equivalent to a complete spiritual cleansing.

Some even saw oil oozing from the faces and heads of the stewards as they absorbed the enlightenment, causing their pores to excrete.

Damn! What oil?

That was the essence of their muscles and meridians being purged, a classic sign of spiritual cleansing.

These stewards were incredibly lucky.

The envious eyes of the stewards in the first hall of the Baiyunzhou Escort Agency turned red! We only received a drizzle, while they were showered with a downpour.

How could they be the same? Why wasn't I in the second hall?

Especially those who had transferred from the second hall to the first hall due to Fang Che's domineering attitude, they couldn't help but slap themselves in frustration.

How stupid could they be to make such a choice?

They had only transferred a few days ago... and they immediately missed out on this heavenly opportunity!

After the three waves of blessings, laughter and words of gratitude could be heard from within, followed by the aroma of wine...

It was clear that they had started drinking.

Outside, the crowd erupted in cheers, "Thank you, Elder Dong!"

Dong Changfeng's voice drifted out, "Thank you all, my friends. We shall meet again in the rivers and lakes."

The crowd outside bowed in gratitude.

Fang Che led the group in a bow and shouted, "Dismissed!"

The surrounding crowd was puzzled, "I thought you were guarding the hotel? Why are you leaving now?"

"Look at all of you, covered in dirt and grime!" Fang Che scolded.

After completing their mission, they didn't even bother to clean up. It's embarrassing for the Guardian Pavilion. Go back and clean yourselves up before returning. Dismissed!"

The crowd was left speechless.

You have an excuse for everything.

The reason they were dirty was because Elder Dong had cleansed their spirits and bones, causing their pores to excrete the impurities within, which then mixed with the dust in the wind, resulting in their current state...

The issue was that they also wanted to be covered in dirt and grime, even in their dreams.

But Fang Che didn't care about their reactions. With a cold, icy expression, he led the group away from the crowd.

The formation marched in perfect order, their footsteps echoing with determination.

In an instant, they were gone.

The onlookers' expressions were complex, especially those in the first hall, their emotions even more so.

Many had red-rimmed eyes, filled with envy.

Executor Lei, his face dark, felt ashamed, "Let's gather our team as well."

An elder executor among them spoke with a cold tone, "They're gathering their team because they're covered in dust and dirt. Why are we doing the same? Our faces are fresh and radiant, not a drop of oil in sight."

Executor Lei fell silent.

Everyone turned their attention to the few who had been transferred from the second hall. They were scrutinized with deep meaning.

A sense of comfort filled the room.

These guys had actually withdrawn before such a huge opportunity, haha...

Though I gained nothing, I'm not the most unfortunate.

The feeling was refreshing.

The transferred individuals instantly became like rare animals, surrounded by curious onlookers. Their faces were filled with unshed tears.

They felt utterly disheartened.

There was once an opportunity... but I didn't cherish it...

If I could turn back time... I wish...

I would say three words...!

...

Fang Che walked with a frown, while others around him were inexplicably excited and elated, their faces flushed with joy. Despite the oil on their faces, no one seemed to mind.

Even the female executors, usually meticulous about their appearance, paid no heed. They practiced their cultivation as they walked, hoping to squeeze out more benefits.

After today, their skin would surely improve, becoming tighter, smoother, and more beautiful!

"Why is Executor Fang so glum?"

"Executor Fang, you must have gained the most benefit, right?" Jing Xiu asked with a smile.

"Er..."

Fang Che, his face dark, replied, "Look at my face, smoother than your makeup. How much could I have gained?"

Everyone was stunned, and upon closer inspection, it was indeed true.

They couldn't help but wonder, "How is that possible?"

Fang Che, furious, exclaimed, "Why are you all following me? Go wash up at the Guarding Hall? That's a public resource. Don't you have homes? Get out, all of you! You're dismissed for half a day."

"Oh yeah!"

The crowd cheered and dispersed.

Fang Che was indeed feeling down.

He had indeed felt nothing, despite Dong Changfeng showering him with the most benefits. Yet, he didn't sense a thing.

It was like a gentle breeze brushing past his face.

Everyone had gained something, but he had not.

And these people were the ones he had brought in.

This feeling was simply unbearable.

"Old Dong must have been biased!" Fang Che cursed Dong Changfeng in his mind and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

He was off to become the new branch leader.

...

Heaven's Escort Bureau.

The Grand Escort Chief sat on his throne, a bit surprised.

It was already late, yet no one from headquarters had arrived. He thought his absence for a day and a half might cause delays, but now it seemed like they hadn't even arrived yet.

The bureau's business had grown significantly.

Nearly a hundred escort chiefs were out on assignments, and currently, five hundred and eighty were on the road.

There were still about a hundred escorts left at the bureau, and new assignments kept coming in.

It was undeniable that Heaven's Escort Bureau had truly expanded.

If it were just a simple escort agency, uninvolved in the righteous and evil struggles of the jianghu, achieving this scale would be like... their ancestors' graves burning with high incense.

The bureau's daily income was no exaggeration—a tenth of their earnings. For every thousand taels, they charged a hundred, and for every ten thousand, a thousand.

For every hundred million, they took a million.

The Grand Escort Chief had stated that for amounts over a hundred million, even if it were a thousand million, they would only charge ten million.

But such large orders... had yet to come.

Wu Lianlian from the finance department initially thought she had the easiest job, but now she realized her workload was several times, even ten times, that of others!

Zhou Meier, the reception supervisor, had to juggle practicing cultivation and receiving guests all day, and her cultivation had improved significantly.

The key was that every day, she had to massage her face, which was now stiff from constant smiling.

But there was no choice; everyone had to be alert for the headquarters' secret inspection.

...

What Fang Che and the others didn't know was that those from headquarters had already arrived.

For three days, they had been observing Heaven's Escort Bureau from various angles within Baiyunzhou City.

They even went to other wealthy merchants, posing as businessmen themselves.

For three consecutive days, they were left in awe.

"Young Master Xing," a young man in white, as handsome as snow, received a list from a subordinate who bowed and presented it with reverence.

Young Master Xing's gaze was deep as the stars, and his bearing was dignified. Even sitting here, he exuded authority.

Beside him were four or five others, all sitting cautiously.

Each of them was of no low cultivation.

Yet, in the presence of this young man, they dared not breathe a word.

Young Master Xing took the list but didn't open it.

He furrowed his brows, "Today, Baiyunzhou is unusual. Is it because of Dong Changfeng's breakthrough with the Golden Serpent Spear, absorbing the power of a Gun Demon?"

"Yes."

Young Master Xing's starry eyes revealed a hint of gravity. "Dong Changfeng is here. You must be cautious in your actions."

"Yes, we will not dare to be careless."

Young Master Xing stood up, hands behind his back, and walked to the window. His slightly worried gaze turned to the bustling crowd outside.

This was Baiyunzhou's most luxurious inn.

Young Master Xing was in the prestigious Tianzi No. 1 Room, overlooking half the city.

He could still see a crowd gathering in one direction, like a tide flowing towards a powerful presence in the air, shining like a divine gun, its might awe-inspiring.

Starless focused his consciousness on the spear intent that soared into the sky, muttering, "Golden Serpent Spear Dong Changfeng, ranked thirty-sixth on the Cloud Sword Spectrum. With this breakthrough, he'll likely advance several places on the weapon ranking."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, pondering for a moment before reciting in a low voice, "The strange python soars into the azure sky, transforming into a dragon with the coming of the long wind; swallowing a million demonic auras, the Golden Serpent Spear turns the river of blood crimson."

"The river of blood beneath the Golden Serpent Spear hasn't flowed in centuries. It seems... it's about to gain more tributaries again."

Starless stood tall with his hands clasped behind his back, gazing out the window. "Has this news been sent back?"

"Yes, it has been sent back."

"Who is ranked above Dong Changfeng on the Cloud Sword Spectrum?" Starless asked.

"The thirty-fifth rank belongs to our Guardian, Li Yao of the Life and Death Sword."

Starless frowned, "The black and white sword body, cold and snowy, the wind and clouds pause here; on the path of reincarnation, there is no return, and beneath the Life and Death Sword, there is only death."

He sighed, "Li Yao of the Life and Death Sword at rank thirty-five may not be able to stop Dong Changfeng after his breakthrough. If Dong Changfeng truly challenges him, I fear Guardian Li Yao... the Life and Death Sword will become the Sword of Death."

Someone nearby said, "But when it comes to challenges on the Cloud Sword Spectrum, there's no room for retreat. If Li Yao were to refuse the fight..."

Starless fixed his gaze on Dong Changfeng's dazzling spear intent, saying calmly, "Then die."

A faint smile appeared on his face.

With his hands behind his back, he spoke softly, "During the re-ranking of the Cloud Sword Spectrum, many under Dong Fang Sansan's command were defeated, while our Only Righteous Sect seized sixty-five of the top one hundred spots in one go."

"In the Cloud Sword Spectrum, which has a total of nine hundred and ninety-nine spots, our Only Righteous Sect occupies seven hundred!"

"Everyone thought it was a great victory."

"But now it seems... it's the killing strategy left by Dong Fang Sansan. Those ranked lower want to rise, they have to defeat those above them... and in a life-and-death battle between enemies, the defeated side can only die."

"In such a fair battle, even finding a reason for revenge is impossible."

"They kept dying, kept being replaced, and kept getting killed. It wasn't until recently that everyone truly realized Dong Fang Sansan's killing arrangement spanning over ten thousand years."

"The so-called Cloud Sword Spectrum is just Dong Fang Sansan's hit list."

"Every once in a while, someone would emerge and climb up the ranks, killing our experts on the list one by one under the guise of fair competition for ranking. And we had no way to stop it..."

"A plan spanning over ten thousand years, and we've been getting killed all this time, only to realize it now..."

Starless let out a cold laugh, "Now, Dong Changfeng has emerged, and Dong Fang Sansan will never let go of this chance to kill Li Yao. So... want to keep face? Haha..."

He burst into laughter, chilling everyone's hearts.

They couldn't help but shudder when they thought of the person standing at the pinnacle in the Guardian Headquarters, manipulating the world's affairs.

What kind of mind could turn the entire world into a chessboard, moving pieces at will?

A plan spanning centuries had been carried out calmly, and no one had noticed.

Even now, when the conspiracy of the Cloud Sword Spectrum had been exposed, they still couldn't refuse!

They could only follow the opponent's arrangement and send people to their deaths one by one!

Because... their fame shook the world! Everyone knew how powerful they were, but if they dared not fight, how could they show their faces in the rivers and lakes?

"Fame is a burden," Starless sighed. He stopped watching the commotion and slowly walked over to sit in a chair, finally opening the report in his hand.

Everyone felt it clearly.

In the moment he turned around, he had completely put aside the matter of Dong Changfeng and the potential changes in the Cloud Sword Spectrum.

"Heaven's Escort Bureau."

Starless looked at the document before him.

"Grand Escort Chief, Yin Xiu. True identity, the leader of the White Cloud Continent Branch of Yi Xin Jiao, Star Brilliance."

"Star Brilliance, that person..."

He carefully read through the report.

"The development of Heaven's Escort Bureau is indeed impressive, and this Star Brilliance leader is truly capable. Over six hundred young demons from various families are under his command, more obedient than sheep. Interesting."

"Have you understood the development process?" Starless asked.

"I understand, and there are indeed some unbelievable aspects."

"Indeed unbelievable. For example, all five of you are veterans in the rivers and lakes, experienced in the mortal world, and your skills in navigating the world have reached the pinnacle. Now, if any one of you were placed in Star Brilliance's position, could you achieve such scale in just a few months?"

Starless asked.

The crowd burst into bitter laughter.

Their faces turned bitter.

"Impossible."

Even with the files and detailed development records in hand, everyone was baffled, feeling nothing but admiration. How could they possibly achieve such a feat?

"But Star Brilliance can."

Starless smiled faintly, "Can you see how much scheming and tactics Star Brilliance employed in this process, and what intentions each step carried for the next? Have you noticed this?"

"I noticed some."

"Then did you see that in the development of this branch, besides the first step taken by the leader of Yi Xin Jiao, using his name to intimidate, the sect didn't intervene in any other way? In other words, this development was all achieved by Star Brilliance alone?"

"Yes, I saw it. This Star Brilliance leader, besides having slightly lower cultivation, is top-notch in all other aspects!"

"Slightly lower cultivation?"

Starless burst into cold laughter, "Where did you see his cultivation as slightly lower?
