Chapter 4174: Ruthless and Overbearing

mist began to light up at an extremely fast pace.And as the runes glowed, that shielding force weakened, allowing Jiang Yun's gaze to finally gradually see the wasteland.After all the runes on the ste...Looking at the Lake Pavilion!

Looking at the four-story building in front of him, Jiang Yun stepped inside.

As Feng Beiling had said, when Jiang Yun told the waiter his name, the waiter immediately led him respectfully to a private room on the fourth floor.

Apparently, Feng Bei Ling is a regular customer of this restaurant, to the extent that there is a private room reserved especially for him.

Through the windows of the room, one couldn't say that it was possible to overlook the entire Huagang City, but looking far and wide from a high vantage point, at the bustling scene row upon row, and at the blue sky and white clouds, also made people feel refreshed.

Below the window, there is a vast lake, which naturally gives rise to the name of the "Lakeview Pavilion".

Along the lake shore, willows were planted. A gentle breeze blew past, and the willow branches swayed gently, creating a truly beautiful scene.

"Young Master, please wait here a moment. I'll go make some tea for you."

As the companion bowed and exited the room, closing the door behind him, Jiang Yun stood by the window, gazing out at the scenery.

Although the scenery was beautiful, Ginger Cloud's face showed no appreciation at all.

Because in his mind, he was visualizing the boundless desolation that he had seen in the sky when he first arrived in this world!

Since the sudden appearance of this Huajiang City, he had been paying special attention to its surroundings and found that the environment here had undergone earth-shaking changes.

This illusion, it's not just confined to one area, but should cover the entire world.

"I just don't know, this illusionary world shows, whether it's a glimpse of some past period, or someone deliberately constructed!"

Originally, Jiang Yun still believed that this illusion was cast by the middle-aged man who had ambushed him before. However, after observing everything in the illusion, Jiang Yun overturned his own idea.

Even if it were myself, I couldn't construct such a large and realistic illusion. Let alone that middle-aged man.

If it really was the other party, they wouldn't be caught so easily.

After denying that it was the man's doing, Ginger Cloud also recalled that after she had retracted the ropes binding the man, he had first taken a step back.

And when I tried to ask him questions, he took another step back and vanished completely, and the dreamlike scene almost immediately unfolded.

Although this illusion wasn't created by that man, it was clear he knew it was coming. That's why he stepped back two paces and merged with the illusion.

Therefore, in this world, there is either a tremendously powerful being behind every man who constructed this illusion.

Either that, or this is an illusion, appearing at fixed intervals or according to a set pattern.

The man had lived there for years, so he was naturally well-acquainted with the time and regularity of the phantom realm's appearance. As a result, he could prepare in advance.

Just then, a hearty laugh came from behind Jiang Yun: "Hahaha, I apologize for keeping you waiting, little brother."

As the door creaked open, an elderly man named Feng Beiling walked in.

Jiang Yun turned around and, facing Feng Beiling, smiled and bowed. "I've just arrived too, not long ago."

Fengbei Ling gestured to a chair with his hand and said, "Come, sit down and talk!"

Ginger Cloud sat down and was just about to speak when Feng Beiling called the attendant at the door in. He ordered several dishes and two jugs of wine.

Although Ginger Cloud and Feng Bei Ling weren't acquaintances, it was clear that he had a forthright personality and was warm and hospitable.

To be honest, this also subverts Jiang Yun's impression of an emperor-level powerhouse.

Even without mentioning the Great Emperors, even just Quasi-Emperors, within the Four Realms' Seclusion, they would at least be the masters of a clan, standing high above others. Ordinary people couldn't even hope to meet them.

But this Fengbei Ling, not only walked like an ordinary person on the street, but after bumping into Jiang Yun, he even apologized to Jiang Yun!

If this happened in the Four Borders, and you were hit by a quasi-emperor, not getting into trouble with him would be your good fortune.

Not only that, Ginger Cloud only casually chatted with him for a few sentences, and he generously invited Ginger Cloud to this restaurant, even wanting to treat Ginger Cloud to food and drinks.

Of course, Jiangyun wouldn't trust the other party just because of these things.

All in all, even if the other party was putting on an act, they at least gave Jiang Yun a good first impression.

After the wine and dishes were finished, Feng Bei Ling reached out and took out a stone, throwing it to the waiter: "Keep the change."

And Ginger Cloud glanced at the stone, discovering that it was actually an imperial source stone.

This also allows Jiang Yun to roughly guess that the world within this illusion should be similar to the Four Realms Vault, and perhaps even more advanced than it.

Because most cultivators in the Four Realms use Heaven and Earth Stones, only near the Imperial Tombs in the four city towns do they use Emperor Source Stones.

If there is Emperor's Source Stone, it means that there is a great emperor in this illusion.

"After the fellow left, Feng Beiling smiled at Jiang Yun and said, “By the way, I don’t yet know your name, sir!”

Ginger Cloud clasped his fists and said, "I am Ginger Cloud, paying my respects to Senior Feng!"

Feng Bei Ling waved his hand and said, "What about senior or not, it sounds awkward."

"Why don't we do this I feel like I have a connection with you, and besides, I'm a few years older than you. If you don't mind, you can call me big brother, and I'll call you little brother!"

Ginger Cloud didn't care about formalities, so he laughed and said, "Then I won't stand on ceremony. Nice to meet you, Elder Feng!"

"Hahaha!" Feng Beiling laughed again. "That's right!"

After the laughter subsided, Feng Beiling continued, "Since my younger brother said this is his first time in Huajiang City, I wonder where he hails from"

Ginger Cloud replied, "I grew up with my grandfather and some uncles and aunts in a mountain called Mangshan."

"Feng Lao Ge might not be familiar to you, as it's a more remote place with few people. It's mostly mountains and nothing else, unlike Hua Jiang City which is so bustling and vibrant."

Ginger said the truth.

Just the mention of Mangshan made Jiang Yun involuntarily think back. Within Mangshan, there was a clan that stood opposed to Jiang Village.

As it happens, that clan shares the same surname, Feng!

Feng Bei Ling didn't doubt Jiang Yun's words, nodding with a look of understanding. "Actually, our situations are pretty similar. I also have a big family."

"Well, our roles might be a little different. In our Wind family, I'm the grandpa, hahaha!"

Hearing this, Jiang Yun couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Indeed, with Fengbei Ling's strength and age, within his family, he should be considered an ancestor-level figure, surpassing even his grandfather.

After some more casual conversation, Feng Beiling looked at Jiang Yun and said, "You mentioned before that you had a few questions you wanted to ask me."

"If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I will answer anything I know."

Jiang Yun retracted the smile on her face and sighed, "I have an elder who was kidnapped by bad people and is in danger. It's said that they came to Hua Jiang City."

"I came here just to look for him, so I wanted to ask Lao Feng if he had seen or heard anything about my elder."

Feng Bei Ling also asked seriously, "What's the name of your elder What do they look like Are there any special features about them"

Jiang Yun stared intently at Feng Beiling and said, "My elder, named Gu Bulao, although he is quite old, always likes to appear as a young boy."

Although he knew this was an illusion, because the city was called Huajiang City and this realm was called Huajiang Realm, Jiang Yun couldn't be sure if his master had ever experienced this illusion.

Even, if this illusion is a display of past years, then when the master came here, could it be possible that he knew Feng Bei Ling

As Jiang Yun's words fell, Feng Beiling pondered seriously for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly lit up!

Looking at the gleam in Feng Beiling's eyes, Jiang Yun's face also showed a hopeful look. It seemed like the other party had heard of it.

And Fengbei Ling smiled and nodded, "Your family elder, isn't their personality very forthright, but also somewhat domineering and unreasonable"As for the Emperor's Battle Remnants, although there were still unexplored areas, after Emperor Xing issued an order, within a year, the remnants were completely excavated in three or four layers."If...
