Chapter 97: Taking The Initiative To Attack

Earlier, when Ye Feng used the new skill that he obtained through forging, Void Slash, he had already seen its power during an assassination attempt. But if he used it on many people, would the move be weaker as a result?

After Ye Feng used it again, he could not help but admit that he had underestimated the power of this skill, anyone who was hit by this move instantly lost their life.

Because Ye Feng displayed incredible combat strength, in just a while, these people who ambushed him scattered and ran. The Yoruk tribe who was at the side would not let these murderers go so easily, the ones who got away from Ye Feng were killed by the Yoruk tribe members.

Ye Feng's strength impressed the Yoruk tribe as they said: "Sir Yoruk tribe, to think that your offensive skill is so powerful."

Ye Feng laughed and shook his head: "After getting assaulted by the Iron Hammer tribe for so long, it is only natural that I've gained much experience and strength. But now, I've decided to change my plan, can you take care of Claude for me?"

The Yoruk tribe understood what Ye Feng meant by this, they agreed on the spot: "There are no problems, but Sir Ye Feng, the Iron Hammer tribe has a close relationship with the Heavenly Forging tribe, the Sacred Forging tribe that is on the Heavenly Forging tribe's side is also not weak."

Ye Feng nodded, he expressed that he understood it as he started to consider what to do.

After the two parties parted here, Ye Feng went to the Iron Hammer tribe alone. Counting both old and new grudges together, Ye Feng had a huge score to settle with them.

At this time, Ye Feng could be said to be extremely calm, the truth was, he had already formulated a slight plan on this matter.

Following the words of the Yoruk tribe, Ye Feng quickly found the territory of the Iron Hammer tribe, at this time, Ye Feng was extremely prepared.

After he reached the Iron Hammer tribe, he did not come out immediately, he used his fireballs to burn some of the houses he saw.

The Iron Hammer tribe members had also realized something was up, they quickly called out to the others to put out the fire but they did not think that the fire was started by Ye Feng, they only thought that someone had made a mistake at the furnace which started this.

They did not think much but went to deal with the fire instead.

At this time, Ye Feng chose to launch his attack, nobody expected that Ye Feng who had undergone so many assassinations would choose to go and attack the tribe itself.

Caught unguarded, many of the Iron Hammer tribe members were attacked by Ye Feng. Although many of them took their weapons and tried to save their injured comrades, how could they be Ye Feng's match?

Before Ye Feng even got serious, many of his enemies were already heavily injured at this time.

How could such a commotion not reach the other members of the Iron Hammer tribe? The elders of the Iron Hammer tribe who were still in a discussion quickly came out after hearing the sounds, they started to look around.

But they did not expect to see this scene, they became enraged: "Ye Feng, you dare to come here?"

Ye Feng snickered: "Why wouldn't I dare? Only your Iron Hammer tribe can assassinate me, but I cannot come to your territory and seek revenge?"

The Iron Hammer tribe elder showed an expression filled with animosity, he smiled coldly: "Of course you can come, in the words of you humans, this is called walking right into a trap."

But next, he saw many Iron Hammer tribe members with heavy injuries, he felt very angry in his heart: "You came to our Iron Hammer tribe and injured so many people, how can we possibly let you off?"

Saying so, he joined the combat.

The others also reacted at this time, all of the elders of the Iron Hammer tribe went into battle, they also sighed in relief due to their advantage in numbers.

After the group of elders joined in to attack Ye Feng, his predicament got tougher. However, even though these elders were all gathered now, they did not expect that Ye Feng's strength was so much higher and more terrifying than they could ever expect.

Ye Feng slowly calculated as he fought, initially, when the elders came out, Ye Feng was a little scared. But now, he could tell that the Iron Hammer tribe elders could not fight with their full strength —

Even though the elders were fighting now, they were too concerned about their identities, the fact that they were attacking all at once was quite embarrassing after all.

Precisely so, even though it seemed like Ye Feng had to beat all the elders, the truth was that they were only taking turns to fight against him. This one-on-one fight was what Ye Feng wanted to see.

Their advantage in numbers became pointless now, these Iron Hammer tribe elders did not expect Ye Feng to be powerful to this extent, they stopped caring about reputation as they chose to attack together.

When Ye Feng fought against these elders earlier, he had already understood their fighting style, thus, when he fought against them now, he was having an easy time.

"So many elders are bullying a single person, you are truly..." Ye Feng's taunting made many of these people's faces turn red, they were originally people with great reputation in the Iron Hammer tribe, they had never been in such an embarrassing situation.

But they did not want to let Ye Feng continue speaking, thus, they started to attack more quickly, wanting to eliminate Ye Feng and hide all traces of this embarrassing fight.

But Ye Feng had also found the weakness of the Iron Hammer tribe now, because these elders had barely fought in their lives, they could not cooperate well in this situation.

Ye Feng made use of this and attacked them individually in various ways, soon, two elders were heavily injured by Ye Feng.

At this time, a voice could be heard: "Your Iron Hammer tribe is really amazing, you can't even beat one person with so many elders, what are you doing?"

The two tribes who were in an alliance with the Iron Hammer tribe had arrived, the Heavenly Forging tribe and Sacred Forging tribe.

Chapter 98: Retreating In Defeat

Even Ye Feng did not think that the Divine Forging tribe and Sacred Forging tribe would arrive so quickly. Originally, the Heavenly Forging tribe had been greatly humiliated because of Claude, thus, when they saw Ye Feng now, they were not polite at all.

Ye Feng was not surprised about the animosity of these two tribes. They hated him to begin with, in this situation, they would definitely not let him off.

The Sacred Forging tribe members were very angry now: "If you can't even deal with one person, you are no better than a corpse."

Saying so, they charged towards Ye Feng and attacked.

The members of the Heavenly Forging tribe also attacked without holding back, they sent attacks at Ye Feng as well.

At this time, the elders who had sustained considerable injuries also joined the fight, Ye Feng knew the situation was bad when he saw so many enemies, after a while of fighting, he could feel the pressure.

His strength could not rival the cooperation of so many enemies.

At this time, Ye Feng was feeling a little regretful that he did not investigate before choosing to attack them.

Because of the situation, Ye Feng had always been very vigilant, but during this period, he had been too successful. As a result, he failed to evaluate this situation properly.

This was a lesson to him, Ye Feng thought about his mistake but he did not show any expression regarding it.

The truth was, Ye Feng was very excited about facing so many people at once, this was a challenge for him.

He looked at all these people with a wary gaze, but when he fought against all of them so intensely, he started to get more excited.

At this time, Ye Feng was not arrogant enough to think that he could defeat so many enemies at the same time, but being able to stay intact against the barrage of attacks from them already showed how formidable Ye Feng was.

Even though Ye Feng was thinking of how to get out of this situation, it was not shown on his face as his attacks became increasingly ruthless.

Even the people who were attacking Ye Feng together could not imagine that instead of surrendering himself now, he fought more and more intensely against the enemies.

But the difference in strength could not be made up for with just courage alone, the people of the Sacred Forging tribe snickered at this moment: "Kid, aren't you going to surrender yet?"

Ye Feng looked at the person speaking as he laughed: "Surrender? I don't have that habit."

Ye Feng said that while fighting without slowing down, although it had been a long fight and his stamina had decreased by some extent, Ye Feng knew that he could not let his mood be affected in this situation, thus, even after fighting for so long, he had not shown any weakened spirit.

Only the people who attacked him felt amazed and also pity towards him.

If Ye Feng was the junior in their tribe, he would be fully nurtured by them, it was truly a pity that they were enemies.

At this time, Ye Feng did not know what the person was thinking, but even if he did, he would scoff.

No matter how much this person appreciated his talents, he would not let Ye Feng off regardless, thus, Ye Feng paid more attention to him afterwards. Many times, he moved towards the man and barely avoided the edge of his sword.

After seeing that Ye Feng was so close to getting injured, this person got very excited, it was already out of all their expectations that Ye Feng was able to contend with them for so long at this age.

Right when they thought that Ye Feng's stamina had been worn out, he started to move again, sending out three Void Slashes consecutively, this trump card of his displayed immense results once he used it.

The overpowering strength of this skill made the elders of the three tribes extremely worried, they quickly did their best to resolve the attack.

But after they resolved it, they could not see Ye Feng anywhere in the vicinity.

The experts of the three tribes looked at each other, they did not expect that Ye Feng would be able to get away safely.

This was simply like a powerful slap on their faces.

"Good, very good." The Heavenly Forging tribe elder's face turned completely dark: "This kid actually managed to escape against the combined attack of us all."

If word was to get out about this matter, the first thing people would think of would not be Ye Feng's strength, but how weak these three tribes were. By then, their reputation would be completely ruined.

Originally, because of Claude's matter, many people thought of them as petty tribes, if this situation occurs now, not only would outsiders think that they were petty, they would even be treated as weak which was the reason why they could not tolerate others' success.

"Then we..." The person from earlier hesitated now, he made a throat slitting action.

"Pursue him, we need to kill that kid." The elders' expressions were also extremely ugly, at this time, they detested Ye Feng to the core, no matter how they explained this situation, it was extremely humiliating to them.

In the future, how would people think of Ye Feng? How would they think of these tribes? Once they thought about these problems, they felt extremely angry and frustrated. Ye Feng's reputation was going to rise greatly because of this, while they would become his stepping stones.

"This kid fought against us for so long, his stamina is definitely going to be depleted. Even if he runs from us now, he cannot get far. Let's chase after him now."

In addition, the others also said after deep consideration: "Seal the information."

The people who were originally going to send out orders to chase after him regained some of their sanity, if they let the information leak, it would mean that they were useless, everyone would laugh at them.

Chapter 99: Ancient Forest

After Ye Feng escaped, he heaved a sigh of relief. During this period, because his enemies had not been very strong, he had become quite lax, even Ye Feng did not expect the Iron Hammer tribe to have so many powerful experts.

Even the Heavenly Forging tribe that was quite traditional also had many strong members, at this time, although Ye Feng had already escaped from the Iron Hammer tribe, he did not dare to act rashly anymore.

After taking a deep breath, he continued to move.

Ye Feng's target was very clear now, it was obvious that the Iron Hammer tribe would chase him in the direction of the City of Chaos, thus, he could not return now, he had to go in the opposite direction of the City of Chaos to be sure.

But Ye Feng did not expect that because his escape was an extremely humiliating thing to the three tribes, they searched for him secretly and did not openly chase him to the City of Chaos.

They did not let any information leak or relax their guard.

Once Ye Feng found a slightly safer place to recover his energy, he found that there were many people wearing clothing of the three tribes chasing after him.

"Do you guys think he is going in this direction? We've chased for so long but there is nothing in sight."

"The elder said that we cannot miss a single spot, catching Ye Feng will be a huge merit to us."

"A huge merit? I doubt it, Ye Feng could escape from the encirclement of so many elders, how can we possibly find him? Don't have unrealistic dreams about this."

"Do you know how much we will be rewarded for catching Ye Feng? It is an astronomical figure that we cannot imagine, in fact, after Ye Feng fought against the elders for so long, he must be heavily injured now, how can we fail to catch him?"

Because of this possibility, the speaker felt nonchalant about the issue, he felt like Ye Feng was already as good as trapped.

Even Ye Feng wanted to laugh after hearing such words, he had expected to be chased, but he did not think that these people would underestimate him to this extent, it caused this entire situation to feel like a joke in Ye Feng's eyes.

"But do you think that they will find anything in the City of Chaos? After all, that is Ye Feng's territory."

After hearing of this, Ye Feng sensed something amiss, if these people really went to the City of Chaos, then all of his hard work that was established in the City of Chaos would be completely wasted.

Especially his creations like the mechanical armor.

Even though Blake was strong, he could not withstand the pressure of three tribes, in fact, there was also the Warwick tribe that was waiting to attack as well.

Thinking of this, Ye Feng spoke out after all, his appearance shocked everyone who was present, but they soon got excited and charged towards him quickly.

But at this time, Ye Feng was not relaxed, he immediately used Void Slash to kill these people before continuing on his journey.

Ye Feng knew that once the others saw the corpses, they would pursue him in this direction.

As expected, after these people died, more and more people came in this direction, of course, the ones sent were also much stronger than before.

But because of this buffer time, Ye Feng's strength also recovered to an extent, he could already muster enough energy to fight against these pursuers.

The pursuers that came after him did not expect that Ye Feng would still remain standing after fighting against so many people. At this time, Ye Feng slowly walked ahead, even though more and more people were sent to find him, even with two elders' pursuit, Ye Feng still managed to escape.

In front of the two elders' eyes, Ye Feng stepped into the ancient forest.

He knew that the two elders had sustained considerable injuries earlier, thus, they would not enter the ancient forest now.

The ancient forest was the paradise of mutated beasts, when Ye Feng stepped into it, he had already known that it was very dangerous, but often, danger was accompanied by opportunities as well.

The energy crystals that the Yoruk tribe gave to Ye Feng came from the ancient forest.

It had always been dangerous, but many people dared to venture into it, but at this time, Ye Feng who was alone got targeted by a mutated beast, lightning leopard.

As the name suggested, the lightning leopard was specialized in speed, the moment it saw Ye Feng, it charged towards him immediately.

Ye Feng who was extremely alert upon entering the ancient forest quickly found its traces, he had ample energy now as he unleashed multiple fireballs on the lightning leopard.

Ye Feng felt a little helpless while he looked at this lightning leopard, he had been chased this entire time, he was exhausted both physically and mentally, he did not think that even at the periphery of the ancient forest, he would encounter such a fierce mutated beast.

Even though the lightning leopard managed to dodge several of Ye Feng's fireballs, the flames still burned its fur, causing the leopard to attack Ye Feng more intensely, this was something that he had not expected.

But how could Ye Feng be scared of a lightning leopard, his sword was still dripping with the blood of the dwarf race.

He raised his sword and slashed at the lightning leopard.

Even though the lightning leopard was a mutated beast, it could not last long under Ye Feng's attacks, finally, his sword pierced into its stomach and it fell to the ground after a painful cry.

At this time, Ye Feng sighed out in relief, even though his stamina was not depleted yet, such an intense fight also caused him to feel extremely fatigued.

Ye Feng slowly stood up and cut the skin of the lightning leopard, retrieving a green crystal core from the area near its heart.

This was a good material, as a Blacksmith, Ye Feng instantly became excited.

Chapter 100: Mutated Beast

After Ye Feng killed the lightning leopard, shock was still evident on his face. He had not expected to have met with such danger the moment he entered the ancient forest, he was still at the periphery after all.

A mutated beast like the lightning leopard was not something he could not deal with or kill, in fact, his gains from killing it were not small. Thus, at this time, Ye Feng did not rush into the ancient forest, he started to search around the area that he had entered.

After searching, Ye Feng found a large number of forging materials in such a short time, he muttered: "No wonder so many people come to the ancient forest despite its great danger, this place is truly littered with treasures."

Even though Ye Feng did not find any valuable materials in such a short time, the truth was that he had picked up many things of certain value already, after taking two steps, Ye Feng felt surprised: "Is this a dense cloud leaf?"

Ye Feng looked at the flower on the ground and showed an expression of disbelief. Even though it was called the dense cloud leaf, normally, it only looked like a pale white flower with yellowish specks and the stamen had a pale color. However, this flower had great value after the leaves grew out.

Ye Feng was attracted to this flower because he knew that although the dense cloud leaf looked common and ordinary, it was an important ingredient in making a high tier healing liquid.

Even though Ye Feng was a Blacksmith and had seen many good things, causing him to not feel tempted when he saw any ordinary material, after slight consideration, he decided to collect the dense cloud leaf.

Along the way, he became very careful, the ancient forest had abundant resources, even Ye Feng was tongue-tied, he could see precious herbs or forging materials every few steps.

At this time, Ye Feng put in his effort to collect all these things, after a while, he was carrying a large amount of materials, he inspected his gains and sighed in satisfaction towards his loot.

At this time, Ye Feng did not realize that he was getting deeper and deeper into the ancient forest. By the time he noticed, he had already taken many things with him.

"Should I continue going forward or stop now while it is not too late?"

At this time, Ye Feng could not help but hesitate, it was not his fault for not being resolved, the temptation that Ye Feng was facing was simply too great.

But at this time, Ye Feng noticed a severe problem while hesitating, along the way, he had not met any mutated beast, it was as if they had all disappeared.

Ye Feng did not think that this was his good luck, because now, he noticed something amiss after entering the ancient forest, it was not normal that the deeper he went into the forest, the fewer attacks he faced.

At this time, Ye Feng became filled with alertness, he shut his eyes and tried to sense the surroundings, what he saw with his eyes might not be real, his other senses might be of greater help to him.

After a while, Ye Feng understood the reason, there was an intense energy fluctuation near him, it was likely the source of the issue. Thus, Ye Feng concealed his own aura and started to move towards that source stealthily.

He had a feeling that this was the reason why the mutated beasts did not dare to come outside.

After Ye Feng went over, he found out what the issue was. The energy fluctuations that he sensed earlier were in fact emitted from here, after Ye Feng got closer, he could feel some threat from up ahead.

"This is likely the reason why there are no mutated beasts around."

Mutated beasts were more sensitive than humans, thus, they were able to make appropriate reactions towards things that could threaten them.

Ye Feng looked at the two mutated beasts that were fighting ahead, he could tell that one was a giant rock python, the other was a blazing flame rhino.

These two mutated beasts had common names but their combat strength was quite shocking, even Ye Feng felt that he could not kill these two mutated beasts on his own.

But the two mutated beasts were not fighting for no reason, Ye Feng started to observe the surroundings at this time.

The thinking process of mutated beasts was very simple. Wherever any precious treasure appeared, they would definitely fight over it.

Thus, after just a short time, Ye Feng found the numinous treasure fruit behind, it was a valuable item that was priceless in the market, each one was extremely precious.

Not only could it raise one's strength, it could also nourish the body, Ye Feng's eyes stared wide the moment he saw the numinous treasure fruit.

After careful consideration, Ye Feng did not back out, instead, he started to observe the terrain more seriously, even Ye Feng had to admit that in this situation, he had a good chance of succeeding if he took action.

Because of these two mutated beasts' fight, there were no other beasts in the vicinity, and because they were fighting intensely now, they did not discover that Ye Feng was here. Precisely so, Ye Feng formulated a plan and made up his mind.

He took in a deep breath and reached for the numinous treasure fruit, after careful observation, he saw that the two mutated beasts did not notice him, he quickly grabbed the numinous treasure fruit and left.

Ye Feng was not sure when these two mutated beasts would realize that he had taken the numinous treasure fruit, thus, he only stopped after running for a long distance.

After Ye Feng rested for a while, he looked at the surroundings and found that there were no immediate danger around him, he sat down slowly and looked at the numinous treasure fruit, he ate it without a second thought.

The numinous treasure fruit lived up to its reputation, after Ye Feng ate it, he breathed in deeply and felt a surge of energy and heat in his body that spread over to his limbs.

At this time, Ye Feng shut his eyes and sensed the changes in his body's strength.

By the time Ye Feng opened his eyes, he let out a breath of turbid air. This time, because of the numinous treasure fruit, his strength rose by a huge extent, he finally had the power to protect himself in this ancient forest.

Chapter 101: Kill

After Ye Feng consumed the numinous treasure fruit, his strength was permanently increased, this was quite a surprise to him.

At this time, Ye Feng could barely suppress the excitement in his heart, he became spurred even though he knew that he was not the weakest in this ancient forest. After all, a growth in strength meant that his safety was more assured.

The ancient forest could be said to be littered with treasures, the reason why nobody could take them all was because the ancient forest's powerful mutated beasts deterred the various tribes from stepping foot in here.

This meant to say that danger and benefit coexisted, earlier, because the two mutated beasts fought here over the numinous treasure fruit, they emitted powerful auras that forced other mutated beasts to go away.

Ye Feng used the situation to his advantage and took the numinous treasure fruit away. To prevent them from finding him, he left immediately and sprinted away for a long time, escaping the range of their detection.

Even though Ye Feng had already inspected the surroundings when he used the numinous treasure fruit, at this time, Ye Feng did not dare to stay much longer, he knew that a mutated beast could target him at any time and hunt him down as food.

At this time, even Ye Feng could not guarantee that the two mutated beasts from earlier had not reacted to the fact that he stole the numinous treasure fruit, after all, as mutated beasts got stronger, they would gradually develop intelligence.

After these beasts became stronger, even humans could not underestimate their intelligence, Ye Feng had to be very careful now.

But this did not mean that Ye Feng would give up on his exploration of the ancient forest.

In this situation, Ye Feng was very careful when he moved, sometimes, even he felt that he was being too wary and cautious. But at this time, there was no such thing as excessive carefulness.

Ye Feng would rather act cautiously than lose his sense of alertness towards danger, at the very next moment, he felt grateful towards his decision to remain cautious — he heard a sonic boom from behind him.

Ye Feng jumped and rolled to the side immediately, by the time he raised his head, he saw that the thing following him was a diamond bear.

As the name suggested, the most terrifying thing about the diamond bear was its attack power, even though it was not as agile as a lightning leopard, it had immense strength and could heavily injure someone to the point of not being able to escape if the attack landed.

And more peculiarly, this bulky beast also had a powerful defensive ability, the reason why it was known as a diamond bear was also because of its tough defense.

When Ye Feng raised his head, he locked eyes with the diamond bear in an unpleasant way, through this, he could see the immense killing intent that the diamond bear had.

At this time, Ye Feng had no room to retreat, he was a little frustrated that he did not act cautiously from the start — when he inspected this area to see if it was safe, he checked whether there was any aura of mutated beasts that lived here.

But he forgot that there could be a really powerful mutated beast here which deterred all beasts, thus, Ye Feng had been using the numinous treasure fruit in the diamond bear's territory all along.

Right now, although Ye Feng was frustrated, he had to find a solution to this problem, the diamond bear also got quite agitated after missing its target, it did not expect itself to fail this sneak attack.

Thus, after the human and bear looked at each other, the diamond bear attacked again while Ye Feng dodged successfully once more, although he seemed to be in a pathetic state.

But when Ye Feng raised his sword to attack, he found that the diamond bear's skin was completely impenetrable.

Although Ye Feng was just probing earlier and did not use his full strength, he did not expect that his attack would not even leave a trace of injury behind on the diamond bear's body.

Even though the diamond bear was not injured, it became quite angry from Ye Feng's provocative attack, it stored up energy to attack again.

At this time, Ye Feng squinted his eyes, this bear was impenetrable? Don't forget, Ye Feng was a Magician.

With a thought in his mind, a bunch of fireballs crashed down on the diamond bear.

Even the diamond bear did not expect Ye Feng to have such attack power, precisely because of this, the diamond bear was forced to change its attack direction.

As a huge bear that jumped up, it was very hard for it to change its attack trajectory midair, how could Ye Feng let go of such a great opportunity?

At the same time, numerous fireballs were shot out. Because Ye Feng was in the ancient forest, he restrained his own magic because he was afraid of causing a fire, but at this time, he could not hold back.

Even so, Ye Feng controlled himself when using the fireballs, he did not attack a huge area.

The fireball attack, however, had a bit of effect against the diamond bear, whenever it hit the enemy, a small part of the body would ignite.

The diamond bear did not expect Ye Feng to use such an attack, its huge and bulky body became agitated, but its anger could not be vented at all.

Eventually, Ye Feng burned it to ashes.

At this time, Ye Feng let out a sigh of relief, he looked at the surroundings of the diamond bear and found a cave.

Evidently, the diamond bear had sensed Ye Feng's existence earlier and chose to assault him from the cave, but to think that Ye Feng would kill it instead.

At this time, Ye Feng went into the cave filled with curiosity. The caves of mutated beasts were very simple, they were used to keep mutated beast flesh for consumption.

But Ye Feng found a number of energy crystals at an inconspicuous corner.

"This is a good find." Ye Feng thought to himself, he started to count the pile of crystals, he found that there were more than twenty of them. He kept the energy crystals away without hesitation before venturing out again.

Chapter 102: Bountiful Gains

After Ye Feng obtained many energy crystals from the diamond bear's lair, he became filled with confidence. Ever since he entered the ancient forest, he had obtained a lot of loot.

Even Ye Feng sighed in amazement: "Thankfully, I acted resolutely, otherwise, how can I have obtained so many good things?"

With the diamond bear's territory as his campground, Ye Feng had a good night's sleep.

During this period of time, Ye Feng had been living a life of fear and worry, even though he did not need to sleep much with his current strength, and just meditation was enough to recover his stamina and strength.

But with strong enemies moving around the ancient forest, having time to meditate was also an extremely rare thing.

Precisely so, Ye Feng decided to use the diamond bear's territory as the base and plan his activities around it.

Even though Ye Feng knew in his mind that the death of the diamond bear meant that this was an unowned territory, it was possible that a mutated beast would come and occupy it later.

But Ye Feng had made preparations after killing the diamond bear, during this period of time, no beasts knew of this battle, it was a good chance for Ye Feng.

Even if they wanted to occupy this territory, time was needed, Ye Feng could make use of this.

Ye Feng acted immediately, the diamond bear was a mutated beast after all, the cave was filled with its aura after it lived here for a long time, Ye Feng could rest here in peace after cleaning it a little.

After Ye Feng rested for a while, he took out the things that he obtained from the ancient forest and categorized them carefully.

The truth was, because this ancient forest was too dangerous, Ye Feng only took the important things but had not categorized them yet. Right now, Ye Feng became very cautious, after arranging these things, he started to plan for the future.

The things in the ancient forest also varied in difficulty to obtain them, some materials were very easy to get, and because Ye Feng was not holding back on taking them, he had already collected a large quantity of materials.

Thus, at this time, Ye Feng did not want to continue taking more.

He placed his gaze at the materials that were rare in the market and also those that he liked, he started to make plans.

"Earlier, while coming here, I had already collected some stuff, I also obtained energy crystals from the diamond bear's cave, I don't need to continue taking the common herbs of the ancient forest from now on."

Ye Feng took a tree branch and started to draw on the ground.

The truth was, Ye Feng had been careful on this journey here, he marked the materials that he saw and remembered, after Ye Feng started drawing, he pointed out the things that he was going to find on the next day.

Life in the ancient forest was very mundane, after finishing the planning, Ye Feng went to meditate and replenished his energy to execute his plan on the next day.

Normally speaking, the ancient forest was most dangerous at night, during this time, even though Ye Feng had raised his strength by a large extent, he did not dare to move around at this time.

Many mutated beasts only roamed around at night, even though Ye Feng was not a risk-taker, he had been targeted by two winged snakes at night when he tried to rest on the tree branches.

Thankfully, Ye Feng was not deep in his meditation at that time, he resolved the danger successfully. After such an experience, Ye Feng became very vigilant when he chose a resting spot.

It turned out that this was Ye Feng's easiest night so far, he even managed to enter deep meditation.

After Ye Feng stopped meditating, he felt extremely refreshed and energized. When he walked out of the cave, he had the mood to practice some of his offensive skills before taking his bag with him and starting a new day of exploration.

Mutated beasts were not stupid in fact, Ye Feng soon found the size of the diamond bear's territory by probing the surroundings, he quickly collected the materials nearby.

The area nearby the diamond bear's cave was rich with materials, many mutated beasts did not dare to take any of the resources here out of fear towards the diamond bear.

All of these resources went to Ye Feng instead, he obtained a lot of herbs effortlessly, the forging materials were the easiest for Ye Feng to notice and collect.

After all, no mutated beast could do forging, these materials were just nicer looking rocks to these mutated beasts, thus, even Ye Feng did not expect that the rocks below the simple flowers and grass were made of diamond sand.

Diamond sand was useless to most people but it was very valuable to Blacksmiths. However, because it was too hard to obtain, many Blacksmiths would choose to use other types of iron sand instead.

The most important aspects in forging to Ye Feng were controlling the temperature and ensuring that the purified materials would not be mixed with impurities, he also wanted metals that had different melting points so they could be easily split.

Even though Ye Feng's control of fire elements allowed him to not have such trouble basically, this did not mean that Blake and Claude did not need it, thus, when Ye Feng saw the diamond sand, he took it without hesitation.

Ye Feng had basically collected a lot of materials in the region that he was in, even though he met with many mutated beasts in the process, because of his raised strength, Ye Feng was not injured, even though he often became dirty after fighting.

Time passed quickly on the mountains, by the time Ye Feng got most of the materials that he wanted, he realized that fifteen days had passed. He had calculated the time by counting the days of sunrise and sunset.

After collecting most of the materials, Ye Feng let out a sigh of relief, without a single person to talk to him in this period of time, Ye Feng felt like he was going crazy, he felt a strong urge to talk.

"I made bountiful gains this time." Ye Feng counted his gains before stepping on the road back to the City of Chaos.

Chapter 103: Safe Arrival

At this time, Ye Feng relaxed a little as he breathed out deeply, when he entered the ancient forest, many dwarves were chasing after him. But now, their pursuit towards him had already stopped, thus, Ye Feng managed to return without many obstacles in his way.

After Ye Feng returned to the City of Chaos, before long, he saw Blake rushing towards him as he spoke without any politeness, he gave Ye Feng a heavy punch on the shoulder: "Oh goodness, you have finally returned, do you know how long you were gone for?"

Ye Feng did not expect that Blake would come to him so anxiously, his tone was also extremely agitated and excited. Ye Feng shook his head in helplessness: "I was not gone for long, by this time, Claude should have returned already."

Blake shook his head: "Claude has not returned yet, you are the first one to return. Do you know how my life has been these days?"

Ye Feng took a glance at Blake, in the past, he often had the demeanor of an aristocrat young master, but as time passed, Blake started to dress plainly after losing his arm.

But even so, Blake still wore clean clothes and his mechanical arm made him look even more domineering, he had matured a lot during this time, he was slowly becoming a grown man.

However, right now, Blake was in a pitiful state, his blond hair was messy and had not been washed for a long time.

His clothes were not only crumpled and messy, like they had not been ironed for a long time, they were also very dirty, his shoes were also not polished.

And the eye bags that he had were dark and heavy, it was clear that he had not slept well for a long time, he had not even shaved for some time.

Currently, Blake looked even more rugged than Ye Feng who had lived in the ancient forest for some time. Right now, if Blake's friends in the academy saw him now, none would believe that their handsome senior was this person.

After looking at Blake, Ye Feng felt a sense of guilt in his heart, he asked: "How did you get into this state? Go shower and take a rest, I will take care of the documents after I wash up."

After Ye Feng finished showering and cleaning up, he saw Blake who was waiting outside. By now, Blake had already left that pitiful appearance behind, his clothes were clean and smooth, his shoes were shining and his hair had been washed cleanly. Other than his tired face, he no longer looked like a beggar.

His handsome appearance could also be seen now, Ye Feng wanted to speak to him at this time, but Blake rejected it because he had work to do, this made Ye Feng evaluate him even more highly than before.

While Ye Feng looked at the documents regarding the situation of the City of Chaos these days, he saw that even though he was missing during this period, the city was quite peaceful, most of the credit went to Blake.

As the young master of the Tevez clan, he had gained experience since a young age by just looking around him, during this period, the City of Chaos was safe because of Blake's hard work, Ye Feng was very happy towards such a result.

Afterwards, Ye Feng started to get into forging again.

At this time, Blake was no longer willing to continue governing the city, Ye Feng had no choice but to use some time to handle the paperwork himself.

Inside the Blacksmith Shop, Ye Feng took out the materials that he collected during this period of time, even Blake, who was used to seeing valuable materials since he was a child, revealed an expression of shock.

"Don't look like a country bumpkin, if you dare to scream like a woman, I will bash you up and throw you out of the room." Ye Feng saw Blake's excited expression and quickly said at the first moment.

Blake took in a few deep breaths and managed to calm himself down.

"Earlier, because Claude had to join the Grand Forging Competition, I focused on teaching him. Now that he is not around, and you also have to continue working on forging, I will teach you during this period of time."

Ye Feng had an unquestionable tone when he spoke, Blake did not raise any objections at this time.

"Because I lacked forging materials earlier, we did not manage to make many mechanical armors or mechanical beasts, but now that I've gathered the materials, we can get much stronger than before."

After hearing this, Blake could not conceal the excitement in his heart, the truth was, these things were very tempting to him, thus, Blake soon focused his mind.

Ye Feng started to forge the mechanical armors, his movements were not too fast because he wanted Blake to learn this process himself. Even though Ye Feng moved slower than usual, he still did not spend much time on the forging itself.

After a few attempts, he had already gotten familiar with the forging process of the mechanical armor, his only exertion now was that he had to answer many questions from Blake while forging at the same time. Thankfully, Blake had already become a stage four Blacksmith before he came here, even though he had just stepped into this level.

Thus, the questions he asked were of good quality, and because Blake had been listening in when Ye Feng taught Claude, even without using a lot of time, Blake improved tremendously.

Ye Feng could see his growth clearly, thus, he let Blake forge the less important parts of the mechanical armor, even though it was hard at first, Blake soon got used to forging them.

Ye Feng felt very satisfied at Blake's progress, but even after a few days of teaching, Claude had not returned to the City of Chaos. Ye Feng started to feel worried, especially when he heard that the Divine Forging tribe members who went to join the Grand Forging Competition had all not returned.

Chapter 104: Reason

The truth was, Ye Feng felt quite relaxed when Claude had not returned initially, after all, he had not been physically in the Divine Forging tribe for a long time already.

Even though this Grand Forging Competition ended prematurely due to all sorts of reasons, it did not affect Claude's victory at all in terms of recognition.

Thus, it was normal in Ye Feng's perspective that Claude was still not back, he knew that the Divine Forging tribe desperately needed this boost in reputation at this time.

But after such a long time, Ye Feng started to sense something amiss.

The fact was that he had not forgotten what happened before he entered the ancient forest, precisely so, after careful consideration, Ye Feng decided to go investigate the situation of those members of the Divine Forging tribe to find out what had happened.

In this aspect, Ye Feng moved extremely quickly, after finding several people with decent strength, he asked them to go to the Divine Forging tribe immediately: "Claude is a Blacksmith after all, after such a long period of going missing, something may have happened to him, if you need to fight, please do not hesitate."

Even though Ye Feng was not in the City of Chaos for some time, because the effect of the previous war was still lingering, and because many people felt admiration towards Ye Feng, they replied him with no hesitation: "Don't worry, we will definitely bring Claude back safely."

These people agreed to the matter with full confidence, Claude was a Blacksmith that had taken the orders of many people in the City of Chaos, they knew about his achievements and the fact that he had a bright future ahead.

Be it logic or relationship, these people had no reason to reject him, thus, once Ye Feng said his request, they immediately left after leaving Ye Feng's place, they packed up and prepared to go to the Divine Forging tribe.

Ye Feng felt a little assured after seeing that they were heading to the Divine Forging tribe, regardless of what happened, these people would be very helpful if Claude was in any sort of trouble.

On the other hand, Ye Feng did not forget to train Blake in terms of combat techniques.

The truth was, his lessons started because of a coincidence, that day, while he was inspecting Blake's forging, he found that Blake had never stopped practicing his offensive skills.

Back then, Blake was top ten in the Knight's Academy, many people thought of him as a superb genius with unmatched talent, the biggest setback he had suffered was likely the loss to Ye Feng because of Avril.

Now, Blake had lost his arm, even though Ye Feng gave him a mechanical arm, he could tell that Blake was so hardworking now because he had not gotten over this matter emotionally.

Blake did not blame Ye Feng for the loss of his arm, instead, he questioned himself over the fact that he was too weak, as a result, Blake placed a lot of effort into the practicing of his offensive skills.

Especially when the mechanical arm needed Blake's practice no matter how agile it was, currently, he could also practice his cooperation with the mechanical arm at the same time.

Blake's hardworking attitude shook Ye Feng greatly, thus, he started to teach Blake about offensive skills and gave him specialized lessons instead.

Blake thought that after Ye Feng returned, his life would get more relaxed, but he did not expect that it would intensify instead, their work schedule even became unified at this time.

In the morning, Ye Feng would teach Blake fighting techniques, after practicing and eating breakfast, they would start to handle the paperwork of the city. After that, Ye Feng would give Blake lessons on forging.

At night, they would practice offensive skills again before Blake used his last bit of free time to practice forging.

Even though Blake was not busy until he had no time to rest, his life was not relaxed at all, due to the previous matter, Blake also became extremely hardworking, he was on par with Claude if not even more diligent at this point.

Thus, the difference between the two started to show, it was clear that Blake had higher talent in fighting, he could basically understand what Ye Feng taught and even raise relevant questions that were deeper in depth, but he took much longer to think when it came to forging.

Claude was the opposite of this, he was very talented in forging but his fighting techniques were far less proficient.

Ye Feng noted their performance in his heart as he started to consider what ways he could use to teach these two more efficiently and effectively.

Right at this time, news regarding the Divine Forging tribe reached him, even without guessing, Ye Feng could tell that something had happened to the Divine Forging tribe.

Originally, the dwarf tribes were quite disunited, they did not meet except for the Grand Forging Competition, but now, because of what happened in the recent competition, the balance had been tilted.

Especially after Ye Feng attacked the Iron Hammer tribe and caused them to cooperate with the Heavenly Forging tribe, they started to attack the Divine Forging tribe as well. Because the Divine Forging tribe had been on a decline for a long time, how could they block the combined attack of both the Iron Hammer tribe and Heavenly Forging tribe?

The forging competition had ended on a sour note, all of the tribes had their own plans and schemes, they did not hesitate to start acting out these ideas now.

After the Iron Hammer tribe and Heavenly Forging tribe encircled the Divine Forging tribe, both sides erupted with intense conflict. Because the Divine Forging tribe was weaker than them, it was having a lot of trouble trying to defend itself.

At this time, the Iron Hammer tribe gave the Divine Forging tribe a lot of disturbances, they mimicked Ye Feng's previous actions and started to burn many of the Divine Forging tribe's houses, they even created a lot of conflict while they were putting out the fire.

The Divine Forging tribe that had only been revitalized because of Claude's appearance did not dare to say or do anything against the stronger tribes as they were currently at their weakest.

Chapter 105: Combat

After hearing of the news brought back from the Divine Forging tribe, Ye Feng thought about it and immediately prepared to send people there. Currently, the Iron Hammer tribe's strength could not be matched by just sending several people.

After the Divine Forging tribe forced Ye Feng to escape into the ancient forest, they became increasingly arrogant and overbearing. Because the dwarf tribes had never had close relationships, and with the fact that the Divine Forging tribe was on the decline, not many forces were willing to stand up for them to try and stop the attackers at this time.

Thus, Ye Feng had to disregard the expenses and utilize the mechanical armors and mechanical beasts that he forged these days. After gathering his men, he went off to the location of the Divine Forging tribe in a huge group.

"I want to go too." At this time, Blake stated his request, Ye Feng paused for a moment as his original intention was for Blake to stay behind and guard this base of theirs.

Thus, after Ye Feng heard Blake's request, he hesitated. However, Blake still managed to convince Ye Feng: "Currently, the City of Chaos is slowly getting on track, even if we are not around, nothing will happen. I've gained some new insight in my fighting techniques these days, I want to test it out in battle."

Ye Feng was a little hesitant at first, but after hearing Blake's words, he realized that this was not something that could not be altered, thus, Ye Feng quickly agreed to it.

But to allow the both of them to leave the City of Chaos at the same time, some arrangements were still needed. These days, because they had been handling all of the paperwork of the city, Ye Feng and his disciple were very familiar with what to do.

After such a long time, even the weaker tribes had changed greatly, even though Ye Feng was not around for some time, because of the mechanical armors, mechanical beasts, and Blake, nobody dared to come and provoke him. As a result, all of the manpower inside the City of Chaos became part of Ye Feng's strength.

Thus, after the two made appropriate arrangements, they left for the Divine Forging tribe's location. Because the information said that this was urgent, they sprinted at full force along the way. They reached the vicinity of the Iron Hammer tribe in no time, seeing the enemies that bore old and new grudges with them, they started to fight.

Along the way, Ye Feng had chosen to let the people wear their mechanical armors before setting off to prevent sneak attacks, it became an extremely good decision now.

When Ye Feng made four mechanical armors, he could already defeat the Warwick tribe, during this period of time, he made way more than just four of them, thus, when the Iron Hammer tribe saw an entire row of mechanical armors, they felt a huge headache emerging.

Especially after they saw Ye Feng leading the group, the dwarves screamed out loud: "Oh goodness, Ye Feng, Ye Feng is back!"

The Iron Hammer tribe was not so naive to think that Ye Feng would die inside the ancient forest, the cause of the shock was simply because they had not expected Ye Feng to be able to return to the City of Chaos so quickly in such a situation.

What feared them even more was that Ye Feng looked completely uninjured, as a result, the entire situation started to turn around now.

The Iron Hammer tribe members who had originally encircled the Divine Forging tribe now formed into a group as they started to fight against Ye Feng's group.

Right at this time, the mechanical beasts appeared, they did not have any cognitive abilities, once they were activated, they went into the enemy group and started to bite with sharp fangs, the stalemate became quite hilariously broken through.

At this time, Ye Feng did not need to say much, the Knights behind him who were wearing mechanical armors charged up and fought, the armor displayed an immense use at this time, it allowed one person to fight against an entire group of Iron Hammer tribe experts, because they did not have the mechanical armor, they were greatly disadvantaged.

As time passed, it seemed like Ye Feng's group was slowly catching up in strength, because he was the creator of the mechanical armors, during the time he made the second batch of them, he had already modified them to be even more effective now.

Such modifications made the mechanical armors even stronger than before.

Ye Feng obviously took the role of the vanguard as he fought against the Iron Hammer tribe experts. Even though he lost to them last time, Ye Feng's strength had risen immensely since that previous fight, he had a much easier time than when fighting against them now.

Normally, mechanical armor needed energy to be used as well, but Advanced Knights were capable of bearing with the cost. Ye Feng obtained a formation when he obtained the mechanical beast blueprint, after he carved this formation onto the mechanical armor, it gained a much greater usability.

Because of this, the battle situation was turned about by Ye Feng after a while, even though the Iron Hammer tribe was quite indignant about the results, they had no choice but to fight against the powerful attackers.

Blake who was at another side was already fighting and killing, he had lost his arm because of the Warwick tribe, right now, he was simply going all-in against these enemies that he could not forgive.

Blake was not weak to begin with, after losing an arm, he continued to practice his fighting techniques. He even received Ye Feng's guidance during this period of time, his strength had grown evidently since then, it was fully displayed in this battle.

Blake was like an emotionless slaughter machine in this battle, all of his enemies felt a huge headache when they fought against him, after all, his mechanical arm had no sensation of pain.

Many of his old moves were also improved and adapted, if he could not block and attack with his weapon, he would use his mechanical arm to break it, that would cause the enemy to be disarmed.

Many of the people wearing mechanical armor also started to mimic his actions, they started to destroy or take away the weapons of their enemies. Because of this, no matter what powerful offensive skills the enemies had, they could not display their full strength.

Even the Iron Hammer tribe had not expected this to happen.

Chapter 106: Utter Defeat

In such a situation, the lack of a weapon basically meant that they were meat on the chopping block. This was something that the Iron Hammer tribe had no choice but to admit.

Initially, the Iron Hammer tribe did not expect that Ye Feng would return so quickly, they had not prepared much against him, thus, at this moment, against his attacks, they were quite flustered.

But this was not the worst thing for the Iron Hammer tribe, they soon realized that the worst had yet to come — the people from the Divine Forging tribe who were focused on defense earlier also started to attack at full force.

Earlier, they were afraid of the Iron Hammer tribe and went on the defensive, but now, Ye Feng was here with reinforcements.

They would not stay as cowards at this time, even a fool could tell that this was a great opportunity for them. As a result, the Iron Hammer tribe started out fighting against Ye Feng's group but now, they were pincered in the middle by two forces from their front and back.

Especially now when many mechanical beasts were mixed into their group, the Iron Hammer tribe started to show signs of losing after the effect of all these reasons.

If the Iron Hammer tribe was quite confident of defeating Ye Feng at the start, then at this point, their confidence was already starting to waver.

Currently, many Iron Hammer tribe members were injured while others had lost their lives, this made the firm and determined Iron Hammer tribe start to feel an inclination to change their decision.

At this time, many Iron Hammer tribe members took their chance and escaped from the battlefield, Ye Feng saw this clearly and started to shout to his men: "If the Iron Hammer tribe members run away, don't pursue them, let them go."

Ye Feng's words were too effective, many of the Iron Hammer tribe members who were indecisive about running away earlier started to take action to escape from the battlefield. After they realized that Ye Feng kept his word and nobody chased after them, more and more people followed suit.

At this time, the members of the Iron Hammer tribe also noticed that the outcome had been decided, no matter how unwilling the Iron Hammer tribe was about losing, there was nothing else that they could do anymore.

Looking at the members of the Iron Hammer tribe now, they had chosen to retreat pitifully and no longer fought against Ye Feng's subordinates.

Watching the Iron Hammer tribe escape, the Divine Forging tribe resounded with an intense cheer, many people expressed their praise towards Ye Feng, after he saw that they were not harmed greatly, he let out a sigh of relief.

But good times did not last, Ye Feng did not notice at this time that another storm was slowly approaching the Divine Forging tribe.

The matter of Ye Feng leading the Divine Forging tribe to defeat the Iron Hammer tribe and saving them from this predicament soon became widely spread news, many tribes gained a deeper understanding of Ye Feng.

But at this time, some unfriendly discussions started to get louder at this time, even some members of the Divine Forging tribe were influenced by them — this was a conflict between the dwarf tribes, why was a human like Ye Feng interfering?

This was a conflict between two dwarf tribes, in actuality, it had nothing to do with Ye Feng, right? So what? Because Claude was his student?

Claude was a dwarf but he went to study forging under a human, he did not inherit the forging techniques of his own tribe? Then was this Claude a traitor?

How could such a person exist among the dwarves?

At this time, many people could no longer remember how they had been sarcastic towards the Heavenly Forging tribe for wanting to hold the title of victor despite not having the skills to back up such confidence, discontent towards Ye Feng became louder and louder.

Such words naturally reached Ye Feng's ears as well.

Initially, when Ye Feng heard such discussions, he did not mind them at all, but afterwards, these arguments became louder and louder, even the more passive dwarf tribes could not ignore it anymore.

Even the Iron Hammer tribe which had suffered a huge setback from Ye Feng's attacks quickly regained a lot of their rights to speak because of this matter.

This was extremely good news for the Iron Hammer tribe, thus, even though they were trying to recover now, they started to act extremely quickly.

The most important thing now for the Iron Hammer tribe was to visit the various dwarf tribes and convince them to hold the Ritual Ceremony and chase the Divine Forging tribe out of the dwarf race.

"Our forging techniques originate from the Great Deity of Forging, right now, an outsider has started to interfere in our internal affairs, this is in fact a form of sacrilege towards the dwarf race, and towards the Great Deity of Forging."

The Iron Hammer tribe spoke with clear and powerful reasoning, they had already thought of the possible excuses that they could use in this situation from long ago.

Many of the tribes were unhappy with the result of the previous competition to begin with, at this time, many heard of stories about Ye Feng's help towards the Divine Forging tribe, they started to feel convinced by the Iron Hammer tribe that Ye Feng was too meddling.

As the Iron Hammer tribe spread such information widely, many people started to think that the Divine Forging tribe had, in a way, betrayed the Great Deity that they all bore faith in.

The dwarf race was specialized in forging, they had the same Deity which they held rituals for. This was the legendary Great Deity of Forging, even though the eight dwarf tribes were separated and had conflicts among each other, they even had different forging ideologies, there was one thing that bound them together and was publicly recognized —

The dwarf race's forging techniques were bestowed by the Great Deity of Forging.

Even though the dwarf race was split into eight tribes, because of the Great Deity of Forging, these eight tribes were tightly connected together, this was an intrinsic connection between them.

Thus, no matter which tribe it was, the dwarf race paid great importance to the Forging Ritual Ceremony, right now, the spread of such news was not favorable to the Divine Forging tribe.

Chapter 107: Influence

With rumors running amok currently, the Divine Forging tribe that was at the eye of the storm also had some internal conflicts, because of this Ritual Ceremony, many of the members of the Divine Forging tribe were already arguing over it.

The Divine Forging tribe was a dwarf tribe, they had a natural faith towards the Great Deity of Forging from birth. Right at this time, many people were unhappy with the appearance of Ye Feng, he was the person who could cause them to be completely dissociated from the Great Deity of Forging.

On this matter, they did not show any courtesy in their discussions.

Our Divine Forging tribe had inherited the techniques of the Great Deity of Forging, at this time, because their leader had become the disciple of a human, the entire Divine Forging tribe was going to be chased out of the dwarf race?

No matter what, the Divine Forging tribe could not agree to such a matter.

In addition, the Divine Forging tribe was a follower of the Great Deity of Forging, if they were chased out of the dwarf race, they would also lose the support of the Great Deity of Forging.

Without the support of the Great Deity of Forging, what would the Divine Forging tribe have left?

Thus, Claude could absolutely not become the successor of the Divine Forging tribe.

Such voices became louder even inside the Divine Forging tribe itself, right now, they had basically branded Claude as a traitor of the Great Deity.

But since there were people who objected to Claude, he naturally had supporters as well.

What? Claude's forging techniques are at the top of the new generation of dwarves, you want to deny him the position of successor in the Divine Forging tribe just because he has a human teacher?

If the Divine Forging tribe's successor is not Claude, will it be you? Can you take the responsibility?

If your forging skills are obtained from the Great Deity of Forging, then why are there no achievements from you all the way until Claude appeared? Instead, you have to act like it is a huge deal now?

The Divine Forging tribe had been declining since Claude was a small kid, back then, which tribe gave the Divine Forging tribe any bit of respect?

Now that Claude has achieved something to make the entire Divine Forging tribe proud, now that they could stand up tall against the other tribes, you want to remove him as the successor?

Can none of you see the horrible performance you showed in the Grand Forging Competition?

What are you afraid of? Don't tell me your forging techniques have never been modified or improved upon since the start?

As the argument of both sides became more frequent and intense, at this time, Ye Feng could no longer ignore it anymore.

Initially, because Ye Feng saved the Divine Forging tribe, he was treated as their honored guest, everyday, they were meticulous in all aspects of his living conditions, including food, clothing, and accommodation. But now, after this situation, the Divine Forging tribe had started to act differently.

They did not talk about this matter in front of Ye Feng, but their gaze towards him had changed. Their staring had become more frequent.

How could Ye Feng be unaware of what was happening at this time?

At this time, Ye Feng stood up and addressed the members of the Divine Forging tribe in an open discussion.

"I know that many of you have forging techniques that originate from the Great Deity of Forging, because of this, you have constantly been afraid that your strength was declining gradually. But ask yourselves this, without Claude, without me, could you have resolved the crisis you experienced, had such matters been rare?"

The Divine Forging tribe fell into silence after hearing Ye Feng's questions. The truth was, they had to admit that he was right, if not for Ye Feng, Claude would not have gotten first place, if not for Ye Feng, they would still be trapped here.

However, some people expressed a different opinion: "Before Claude rose to power, the Iron Hammer tribe did not target us specifically."

But once that was said, it was immediately rebuked: "Of course, the Iron Hammer tribe only had to watch as we declined gradually, why would they need to dirty their hands to something redundant?"

After hearing this, the Divine Forging tribe fell into silence, they could not lie to themselves that they were very strong, voices of discontent became softer and weaker now.

Looking at this situation, Ye Feng spoke: "Claude's forging techniques are all taught by me, even if the Iron Hammer tribe's schemes succeed, he will not be weakened in any way. If you guys think that my forging techniques are good, you can learn them from me as well."

After Ye Feng said that, the opposition side vanished without a trace. The core reason why they objected to Claude was because they were afraid that they would get much weaker after leaving the dwarf race, they would eventually end up as meat on the chopping block.

Now that Ye Feng offered to teach them forging skills, they would not reject his offer, after all, it was something that was good for them.

After many people agreed to this, Ye Feng quickly planned this matter of imparting forging skills to the Divine Forging tribe and tried to sort the members out.

No matter how weak the Divine Forging tribe was now, they still had many people with varying levels of skills in forging, it was extremely troublesome to teach all of them in fact.

Even Ye Feng felt a headache now, but he had once taken in two disciples, Claude and Blake. With such experience, he quickly classified the members into different classes and let Claude and Blake teach the elementary classes for people with lower skills.

Those with better skills would be taught by Ye Feng personally, the Divine Forging tribe had no objections towards such a plan, Claude and Blake were very experienced and had deep foundations, it was not a problem for them to teach the amateurs.

Thus, the entire Divine Forging tribe's members became Ye Feng's students at this moment, even some elders who were stage five Blacksmiths went to ask Ye Feng some questions regarding forging.

The overbearing attitude and atmosphere from earlier was gone now, even those who opposed Claude within the Divine Forging tribe became much softer now, much fewer conflicts arose as well.

Chapter 108: Teaching

As a Blacksmith, Ye Feng's skills were not poor to begin with, since he had decided to teach the Divine Forging tribe, he became exceptionally serious in this matter.

Soon, most of the members of the Divine Forging tribe experienced what Ye Feng's seriousness entailed, their carefree lives were basically a part of history now.

Ye Feng was very strict and solemn when he taught forging related knowledge, even Blake who was seen as a talented individual suffered greatly during his classes. In fact, even Claude who was specially trained before the Grand Forging Competition suspected his own talent after Ye Feng forced him to undergo intense training.

Two people with great talent were barely able to endure his training, the members of the Divine Forging tribe were far inferior to them.

Each time they complained to anyone, they could hear Blake and Claude's cold laughter: "This is nothing, back then, teacher did this to us..."

After the Divine Forging tribe members heard what Ye Feng did to Blake and Claude, they became less frustrated, sometimes, they even looked towards Blake and Claude with glances of pity and sympathy.

At the same time, they were envious towards their talent.

Ye Feng's forging skills were self-taught, when he gave Blake and Claude lessons, they were structured and helped develop a deep foundation, thus, the two of them also copied this style when they taught the rest of the tribe.

Ye Feng was not stingy at this time, he took out the blueprint of the mechanical armor and started teaching those who had good foundation the method to forge the mechanical armor.

The truth was, many people had heard of the mechanical armor's reputation, when the Iron Hammer tribe attacked, they saw with their own eyes how powerful Ye Feng's mechanical armor was.

Thus, they became very excited now, they did not think that he would bring out this blueprint for them to learn.

Most of the time, Blacksmiths tend to keep their blueprints or techniques a secret, many of these Blacksmiths were able to create many things in their lifetime, but few were willing to teach or give their forging blueprints to others.

Even for their own disciples, not many would teach all their skills, thus, many people felt excited and amazed when Ye Feng brought out his mechanical armor blueprint.

Ye Feng did not care about such emotions, when he heard about such a situation earlier, he felt extreme disdain towards such actions. In his opinion, in order for a person's skills to improve, interacting and learning from others was necessary.

By keeping the creations secretive and preventing it from developing further, it would not benefit him. Thus, Ye Feng taught these people while imparting his experience and knowledge, he asked for them to do the same, many people were not used to it at first, but after seeing the mechanical armor blueprint, they could not refuse to contribute.

The research results that they took out were also improved upon later, after they successfully forged the mechanical armor, they also gained some confidence to fight against their strong enemies.

The mechanical armor could undoubtedly increase the strength of the Divine Forging tribe.

On this aspect, the Divine Forging tribe was submerged in the atmosphere of learning, but for the Iron Hammer tribe, they were not feeling the same.

After what Ye Feng did earlier, the Iron Hammer tribe had suffered a huge setback, because of the mechanical armors and mechanical beasts, the Iron Hammer tribe had no way to fight back.

At this time, the Iron Hammer tribe's conflicts were directed towards the Yoruk tribe.

As a dwarf tribe, the Yoruk tribe's specialty at creating mechanical beasts was well known to everyone, it was obvious where Ye Feng's mechanical beasts came from.

Furthermore, the Yoruk tribe was very close to Ye Feng during the gathering.

Because of various reasons, the Iron Hammer tribe started targeting the Yoruk tribe at this time.

The Yoruk tribe had gotten closer to the Divine Forging tribe earlier because of Ye Feng, during this period of time, when it came to matters regarding the Divine Forging tribe, the Yoruk tribe would either object or stay silent about it.

Thus, the Iron Hammer tribe was very unhappy with them now: "You are really Ye Feng's good allies, I assume his mechanical armor's idea and the mechanical beast blueprint came from your tribe?"

The Yoruk tribe could not answer the Iron Hammer tribe's question at this time, they had basically acknowledged it, causing the Iron Hammer tribe to understand that Ye Feng had gotten so powerful and hard to deal with because of the Yoruk tribe's help.

Even if they denied their involvement, it could not stop the Iron Hammer tribe from targeting and attacking them now.

Initially, the Yoruk tribe was wholeheartedly thinking of helping the Divine Forging tribe, but before they even did anything, Ye Feng and his people quickly defeated the Iron Hammer tribe and caused them to escape in defeat.

Afterwards, the situation aggravated till the point where they wanted to use the Ritual Ceremony to banish the Divine Forging tribe, the Yoruk tribe had to be very careful with expressing themselves.

And because the Iron Hammer tribe had contacted many other tribes beforehand, while the Yoruk tribe did not know many of them due to their aloof nature, the support of the majority naturally went to the Iron Hammer tribe.

The Iron Hammer tribe's goal was very clear now — they wanted the blueprint of the mechanical beast from the Yoruk tribe.

Everyone here was a Blacksmith, how could they not understand what the Iron Hammer tribe was trying to do while beating about the bush, everyone was clear about their intention.

But the rest also wanted to get the blueprint of the mechanical beast, since such an opportunity arose, they were not going to back down, it was the perfect excuse.

The Yoruk tribe had the initiative in this situation in the past, but because the Iron Hammer tribe gathered the remaining five tribes on their side, the Yoruk tribe could not say anything even if they were angry now.

No matter how strong they were, they could not fight against six tribes at the same time, as for the Divine Forging tribe? They were too busy with their own matters now to help the Yoruk tribe.

Because of this, the Yoruk tribe was forced into a corner by the Iron Hammer tribe.

Chapter 109: Threaten

Undeniably, the alliance of the six tribes including the Iron Hammer tribe was something they could not resist, but they were not going to give in so easily.

The Yoruk tribe was not strong to begin with, they had a peaceful time earlier because of the mechanical beasts that they had.

If they gave the mechanical beast blueprint to them, the Yoruk tribe would be at their mercy.

And they were asking for the mechanical beast blueprint to deal with Ye Feng and the Divine Forging tribe.

These were their friends!

But if they refused to do so, the Yoruk tribe might get wiped out now... They could fight against one tribe, even if they could not win, defending was still possible.

But against six tribes, what could they do?

On one hand were the blueprint that they relied on and also their friends, on the other hand, their own safety was at stake.

This made many of the dwarves in the tribe hesitate.

Everyone only had one life, not everyone was noble, after all, this was just a blueprint, it could not compare to the safety of the whole tribe.

"Should we just hand the blueprint over? Our safety is the most important!"

"If we hand the blueprint over, will we be safe? By then, they will have an easier time wiping us out."

"Regardless, we are all dwarves, if we are no threat, they won't kill us right... I'm sure they will spare us."

"But the mechanical beast is our Yoruk tribe's foundation! If we hand the blueprint over, will we still be considered the Yoruk tribe?"

The Yoruk tribe members were fearful and anxious now, they talked about themselves nervously.

On a whole, there were many people who held opposite views, this prevented the Yoruk tribe from coming up with a decisive answer now.

And now, different from the nervous Yoruk tribe, the allied forces of the six tribes were feeling quite relaxed.

The elders sat together and smiled at each other as they thought of ways to squeeze the Yoruk tribe dry.

"Hehe, I think the Yoruk tribe is scared gutless now." An elder smiled as he squinted: "This is likely the greatest difficulty they've ever gotten into."

"Hmph! They are a trashy tribe, if not for those lousy mechanical beasts, they are all just trash!"

An elder of the Heavenly Forging tribe snorted coldly as he said in disdain.

Because of their arrogance, they looked down on the other tribes. Thus, the Yoruk tribe that relied on machines was even worse in their eyes.

In their opinion, the Yoruk tribe that could only make mechanical beasts and other useless toys was a disgrace to the Great Deity of Forging!

They were only creating mechanical beasts that were neither considered weapons nor defensive equipment, this was simply not forging at all!

But there were only their spiteful words, how could anyone not see the power of the mechanical beasts? If the Heavenly Forging tribe really looked down on it, they would not be here to try and obtain the blueprint for themselves.

"Some people are only capable of speaking rubbish." An elder waved his hand and frowned: "No matter what any of you say, aren't you here to gain the benefits as well?"

Even though he did not state who he was talking to, everyone here could understand what he was referring to.

After all, none of the tribes liked the Heavenly Forging tribe, if not for an external enemy like Ye Feng, they would have gotten rid of the Heavenly Forging tribe already.

Of course, the strength of the Heavenly Forging tribe made them a tough target as well.

If not for Ye Feng and the Divine Forging tribe, it was almost impossible to get six tribes to ally as one!

The Heavenly Forging tribe elder who had a hot temper knew he was the target of those words, he was someone who would never let such a provocation go.

After slamming the table, he stood up and shouted: "What do you mean? You have a problem with me?"

"Heh..." The other elder was not as irrational as him, he smiled coldly: "I was not referring to anyone, are you admitting something?"

Right when the Heavenly Forging tribe elder wanted to continue arguing, the person who brought the alliance together stopped him: "Alright, we are all alliance mates, there is no need to ruin our relationship over such small matters."

It was the Iron Hammer tribe elder who spoke.

Even though this elder had a white beard near his chin and seemed quite old, the tough muscles on his arms showed that he had considerable strength.

Be it in forging skills or combat strength, there were few who were stronger than him here.

"Right now, we need to discuss how we are going to deal with the Yoruk tribe and Divine Forging tribe."

After hearing his words, the Heavenly Forging tribe elder suppressed his anger and stared at the previous elder with fiery eyes as he sat down again.

"What is there to talk about the Yoruk tribe?" An elder spoke in a lazy tone: "As long as they hand over the blueprint, we can spare them this time, after all, we are all dwarves, they did not do anything to us either."

After hearing his words, many people nodded in agreement.

The root of the matter was that they were here for benefits, even though the Yoruk tribe was a loner, they did not have much grudges, compared to them, the alliance hated the Divine Forging tribe more.

If the Yoruk tribe really handed over the blueprint, since they were no threat anyway, it was fine to let them go."

"Do you think that's enough? Just the blueprint?"

Suddenly, a Heavenly Forging tribe member said: "Don't forget, the Yoruk tribe still has many mechanical beasts in their possession."

"Isn't that a little overboard..." An elder frowned.

It was quite clear from what he said, he felt that the blueprint was not enough, he wanted to take some 'loot' as well.

But in that case, there would be nothing left of the Yoruk tribe, it was the same as exterminating them.

"Actually, it is not that overboard if you think about it."

An elder from the Iron Hammer tribe chuckled and tried to sway them: "Think about it, the battle is about to begin, even if we get the blueprint, we cannot create many beasts in this period of time, it will be useless in the battlefield... But if we have this loot, the situation will be different. The Yoruk tribe can make a contribution towards our victory."

"This..."

"At most, we can take a portion and leave them a few!"

"Good idea!"

"Let's decide on that!"

In many situations, it was not that people were unwilling to do things, they just needed an excuse.

...

"They are too overboard! Other than the blueprint, they also want our mechanical beasts?!"

News soon got to the Yoruk tribe.

"They want to use our beasts to fight against Ye Feng? He is our friend!"

Everyone gritted their teeth, they were exceptionally angry: "They are simply too much, this is a humiliation to us!"

"We cannot allow this even if they just want a portion, if they take two-thirds of our beasts, it is the same as crippling our foundation!"

"We cannot relent!"

Different from what the six tribes thought, this situation caused the Yoruk tribe to become united instead.

They wanted to resist, they were not going to give up and wait for extermination!

Chapter 110: Asking For Help

"Resist... how can we resist? The difference in strength is too great."

Some of them said while shaking their heads, they were very dejected.

Even though they were unwilling to surrender, the difference in strength was too huge!

Even if the Divine Forging tribe was very strong now, they were only two tribes if they joined up, the difference was still huge when facing six tribes at once.

"We can look for Sir Ye Feng! The Divine Forging tribe is in the same situation as us now, while his disciple is from the Divine Forging tribe, I'm sure Sir Ye Feng would not stay on the fence."

"But can Sir Ye Feng really be of help? We are facing six tribes at once."

"Don't forget that Sir Ye Feng has a lot of authority in the City of Chaos, I am sure he can assemble a group of people to fight."

"But will he exert so much effort for us? It makes sense for the Divine Forging tribe, but us..."

"Regardless, this is our only hope now."

A dwarf of the Yoruk tribe stood up, it was the one who met with Ye Feng when the Yoruk tribe first approached him, he said: "Let me go, I've known Sir Ye Feng for the longest time among us, we are quite close, I think I can succeed in getting his help."

"That is all we can do..." The Yoruk tribe elder sighed helplessly, he let the dwarf head to the City of Chaos along with some others.

They secretly left the Yoruk tribe without getting noticed as they went to the City of Chaos at full speed.

As they were rushing with full speed, they quickly reached the City of Chaos and arrived at Ye Feng's shop.

But the thing that sent them into despair was that the doors were shut, Ye Feng was not here!

"What do we do?"

A dwarf started panicking, he did not know what to do: "If Sir Ye Feng isn't around, who else can we find for help?"

"Is Sir Ye Feng purposely avoiding us..." Another dwarf was still quite rational as he tried to analyze the situation: "No way, news would not have spread so quickly, Sir Ye Feng should be unaware of our plight now."

He quickly rebuked his own theory and soon failed to come up with a conclusion.

"Alright, stop making assumptions, Sir Ye Feng might be busy with something now, like maybe, he is collecting materials?"

The dwarf leader interrupted them and looked around before saying: "Let's go and ask the Auction House first, they have a close cooperation with Sir Ye Feng."

"If they don't know either, we will go to the Divine Forging tribe, Sir Ye Feng might likely be there, even if he is not around, we can ask them for cooperation and think of a way to deal with the enemies."

The other dwarves looked at each other and nodded in agreement, there was nothing else they could do.

Soon, they left the Auction House in disappointment.

"Sorry, we do not know where Sir Ye Feng is either."

The Auction House supervisor's words still lingered and echoed in their ears.

Right when they were about to leave in disappointment, the supervisor rushed out and said to them while panting: "I forgot to say... even though we do not know where Sir Ye Feng is, his disciple Blake definitely knows, he is still handling the affairs of the city."

"Thank you!"

After being stunned for a moment, the Yoruk tribe dwarves' dim expressions lit up instantly.

After thanking the panting supervisor, they quickly left the place.

The Auction House supervisor looked at them leave as he smiled, even though he was not strong, he was still a Knight, how could he feel tired so easily?

But he was still a businessman, even though the Yoruk tribe was not strong, it was still a dwarf tribe, they even had the famous mechanical beast, if he could gain a favor from them through this, it would be a huge profit.

This was just a bit of effort, because the Yoruk tribe had a rather good reputation and since they were so urgently looking for Ye Feng, it was likely that they would remember this favor.

Even without any actual benefits or gains, if they could cooperate in the future, it would still be a great advantage.

That was enough.

And on the other side, after getting accurate instructions, the Yoruk tribe members quickly found Blake.

Blake was not like Ye Feng, he was busy forging inside the shop of the City of Chaos.

"You are from the Yoruk tribe? What is the matter?"

Blake brought them to the hall as they spoke.

"The situation is like this..."

The dwarves looked at each other, since Blake was Ye Feng's disciple, he was trustworthy, in any case, this was not something that could be considered a secret.

After confirming that there was nobody else around, they quickly told Blake about the situation.

"..."

After understanding the situation, Blake interrupted them and said decisively: "Then what are you waiting for, I'll go back and pack up, we will go find teacher at the Divine Forging tribe now!"

"...Alright!"

The Yoruk tribe members were stunned by Blake's decisive words, they quickly nodded in agreement.

The situation was dire now, Blake and the rest left and moved at top speed, they arrived at the Divine Forging tribe soon after.

...

"Bam!"

"This is too much!"

Claude who was forging with Ye Feng earlier slammed his hammer on the ground in anger.

"They are simply bandits!"

"This is unacceptable!"

Some of the rash and angered dwarves tossed their hammers on the ground as well, the intense rage made them forget about their job for a moment.

"This is really too much..."

Ye Feng looked at the ruined creation of Claude's subordinates and turned to the dwarves of the Yoruk tribe: "Don't worry, I won't stand by and watch them bully you!"

Next, Ye Feng casted a glance at Claude who was about to speak when a Divine Forging tribe elder interrupted him.

"Don't worry, we understand that we have to band together now, if the Yoruk tribe is wiped out, we will be their next target. Furthermore, with the help of Sir Ye Feng, we can definitely fight back!"

The Divine Forging tribe members also nodded in agreement.

"Good."

Ye Feng smiled in satisfaction, speaking to Blake: "I need to trouble you to make a trip back to the City of Chaos, we don't have enough people with us, go and get help."

"Don't worry about it, teacher!"

Blake laughed: "With your strength and the Divine Forging tribe's reputation, I'm sure many people will come to help us."

"Yes, just go directly from the city to the Yoruk tribe."

"Understood!"

...

Iron Hammer tribe's alliance gathering.

"The Yoruk tribe sent people to the City of Chaos."

A Heavenly Forging tribe elder said in a solemn tone: "They want to borrow Ye Feng's strength."

"We cannot wait any longer, we need to attack now!"

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 111: Battle

"That's right, it'll be a problem if we wait any longer."

The Iron Hammer tribe elder nodded and said solemnly: "I have to admit, that Ye Feng is backed by the City of Chaos, he has good strength too, this is a strong enemy that we have to watch out for."

"Even if we are not afraid, if they interfere and cause trouble, they can ruin our objectives and plans. Furthermore, if they cooperate, they can cause considerable losses to us as well."

"Alright, enough of talking here."

An elder stood up and said in a ruthless tone: "Let's fight first, we can think about the rest later, how can the Yoruk tribe probably escape from our hands?"

He had never intended to let the Yoruk tribe off, as a person who suggested to just start fighting on many occasions, it was only because such a view was held by the minority that it had never been executed.

After all, not everyone was like him who did not care about members of his own race.

Now that this great chance presented itself, he said in excitement: "Since the Yoruk tribe is unwilling to hand the blueprint over, let's snatch it from them by force!"

At this time, there was basically no objection, they could only spare the enemy if they had an overwhelming advantage. If Ye Feng reinforced them, the situation could end up being troublesome.

"Then, let the battle begin!"

...

"I'm afraid the information has been leaked..."

An elder of the Yoruk tribe watched as the alliance army approached them from afar.

There was no absolute secret in this world, they had expected this information to get exposed, but it had been too quick.

And looking at the enemy's actions, they seemed to be ready for war.

"They actually attacked us without saying anything."

Another elder frowned and looked at the other dwarves, asking hesitantly: "Do we destroy the blueprint now?"

After all, this blueprint was not unique, even if it was destroyed, Ye Feng still had a copy, they also remembered it in their minds.

"No, not yet... We don't know when the reinforcements are coming, if we really cannot defend ourselves, we need to use the blueprint to negotiate with them."

"Then let's hold onto it."

The elder from earlier nodded: "If the situation gets out of control, I will destroy it directly."

"Even though stalling is important now, we cannot let them get it, so be it if we have to destroy the blueprint, this thing is not valuable anyway — to us that is."

"Then... let's prepare for battle!"

As the enemies got closer, the Yoruk tribe also started to prepare themselves, after all, they did not think that this would end peacefully now.

Almost all the elders wore mechanical armors.

They had gotten the mechanical armor blueprint for some time already, by now, they had already created suitable armors for themselves.

Even though they did not make many, because the Yoruk tribe was weak, there were few who could display the true power of the mechanical armor, while each elder only needed one.

If they had ample time, they could research and create weaker mechanical armors, but this was wartime, how could they have the luxury to do that?

Time was not an issue during peaceful times, but they would not waste their resources to do this research either.

They pursued the path of forging, not personal strength.

"Sigh... if we want peace, we need sufficient strength."

That elder shook his head and said bitterly: "No matter what we want, ample strength is the most reliable and necessary foundation."

They had never thought that the other dwarves tribes would be so shameless as to come here and attack them so openly for their blueprint!

At the same time, the Yoruk tribe also let out their mechanical beasts that charged towards the enemies.

Since they were fighting, they had to use all their available strength!

"Hahaha, a bunch of trash that relies on external help, you are not fit to be Blacksmiths!"

A Heavenly Forging tribe member charged forward and slashed at the mechanical beast that pounced at him.

"Hmph, we'll know who's trash after fighting."

An elder wearing mechanical armor came out with a long spear in his hand, as they had the same cultivation realm, he managed to repel the enemy by several steps.

The Yoruk tribe had a good relationship with Ye Feng, how could they not ask him to make weapons for them?

Even though there were only a few top tier weapons, each of the Yoruk tribe elders had a peak stage four weapon at least.

With Ye Feng's forging skills, unless it was against a stage five weapon, no weapon could match the one he made.

That was to say, this was the best weapon under stage five!

Even though these tribes had stage five weapons, they were extremely rare and of poor quality, even against Ye Feng's peak stage four weapons, they were only marginally stronger.

"Heh, are your forging skills good?"

The Yoruk tribe elder rebuked: "Then let's see who's weapon is stronger?!"

Ye Feng's weapons were publicly known for their quality, even these dwarves had to admit his skill.

"Come!"

The two collided again.

Undoubtedly, with the help of the mechanical armor and Ye Feng's weapon, even in a one-on-one battle, the Yoruk tribe elder had the complete advantage.

The mechanical beast also made up for their weakness in manpower, without the attack of all six tribes, they were able to hold their ground now.

But this was only temporary. Against the Yoruk tribe alone, they were not going to invest all their combat strength, that was not worth it.

The difference in number of people was too great!

"Hmm, their strength is higher than we expected."

An elder at the back saw the weapon in the Yoruk tribe member's hand and revealed an expression of shock.

"Hmph, you are only relying on the mechanical armor, mechanical beast, and the weapon that Ye Feng created... These are all external help."

It was obvious that the person who spoke was from the Heavenly Forging tribe.

The elder from earlier looked at the Heavenly Forging tribe member but did not rebuke him.

He did not want to engage in a useless and pointless argument with the Heavenly Forging tribe member, he did not want to stoop to his level.

"Continue sending people to fight... overwhelm them with numbers and win this battle quickly."

At the other end.

Ye Feng and Claude led their group as they rushed towards the Yoruk tribe with the main members of the Divine Forging tribe in a hurry.

The Divine Forging tribe had basically brought out all their forces now, if the Yoruk tribe was exterminated, they would not last much longer either.

Ye Feng might be able to protect some of them, but he could only save a small number, how could the Divine Forging tribe still remain after losing the bulk of its members?

"Kill!"

Ye Feng could hear vague shouting noises as he raised his head and looked afar.

"They've already started fighting?"

Claude was standing beside Ye Feng, he also heard the shout from earlier.

"It is likely so... it seems that they are not far from us."

Ye Feng nodded and sighed: "I hope we make it in time."

"Everyone, full speed ahead!"

Chapter 112: Victory

"Reinforcements have arrived!"

A loud voice spread throughout the battlefield.

Other than some who were engaged in fierce battle, everyone else turned towards the direction of the voice.

Ye Feng stood at the front and was the most eye-catching person, once the Yoruk tribe members saw him, they felt a surge of morale as they became spirited, while the other tribes became more nervous now.

Of course, they were just nervous, very few people knew of Ye Feng's true strength after all.

"Let's go!"

Once they reached the battlefield, Claude led the Divine Forging tribe members and charged inside without hesitation.

Meanwhile, Ye Feng shot several fireballs and retreated. In this battlefield, a Magician was much more important than a Knight.

If he was not restricted, a Magician was simply like a slaughter machine in this battlefield.

"Sir Ye Feng, thank you for the help!" A Yoruk tribe elder came to find him while covered in injuries.

He had killed an enemy elder earlier, almost all of his combat strength was expended, he only escaped from the battlefield after receiving help from his comrades.

"No need to thank me, we are all friends, it is only right that we help each other."

Ye Feng waved his hand as he assessed the other party, saying in concern: "How are your injuries? I'll get you some medicine."

"No need... I just need to recover for some time."

"The other party smiled: "No worry about external injuries, as for internal injuries, I have already taken some medicine."

Ye Feng did not speak anymore, he went back to casting magic spells.

The other party was an elder after all, he would not refuse help if he needed it now, it was true that he had taken care of the injuries already.

Even though the Yoruk tribe was not strong, they were part of the dwarf race after all, with all the things they forged, they could not be poor.

As for medicine, they had no lack of it either, but other than those top tier medicine, the ones effective on external wounds were useless on the battlefield.

"I'll guard you here."

The elder smiled and said jokingly: "I can take a break to recover my strength as well."

Defending a Magician was common sense, it was really rare to see someone like Ye Feng who was both a Knight and Magician.

Ye Feng did not like to fight physically, so very few people knew of his true strength. Furthermore, due to the immense power of his magic, in the eyes of many, he was just a powerful Magician.

"Sure."

Ye Feng did not reject the good intent of the elder, although he said he could take a break, the elder had already become alert against any possible sneak attack.

Ye Feng had such a high profile, the enemies were naturally not going to let him off. He was a powerful Magician, if they allowed him to attack like this, unless all six tribes attacked at once, he would eventually kill them all.

"You're asking for death."

Ye Feng snorted coldly, a fireball appeared in thin air as it shot towards a nearby dwarf.

"An Intermediate Knight dares to charge forward so recklessly."

The elder shook his head lightly and laughed: "He is just too daring, even if his speed is very fast, the difference in strength is too evident."

But right at this moment, a black figure appeared behind Ye Feng as his dagger stabbed towards Ye Feng's waist soundlessly.

"Heh... I can only say the same thing as before."

Ye Feng could have guarded it with his defensive equipment, but he did not waste the time. After turning around, he raised his knee and knocked onto the wrist of the attacker.

Slam!

The huge force sent the dagger flying, Ye Feng chopped at the enemy's neck as the dwarf grunted and fell to the ground.

The force that Ye Feng used was sufficient to kill him.

"This..."

The elder looked at the dwarf on the ground and shook his head: "As expected of Sir Ye Feng, you are very strong... There are few dwarf assassins in the tribe, not to mention one with such strength."

The talent of the dwarves was mostly in forging, one who was specialized in assassination would not appear in decades at times.

"He is not weak... if I was not prepared for it, it might have ended up badly."

Ye Feng casted a glance at the corpse and shook his head: "Earlier, they had acted too excessively, after seeing that person who sacrificed himself, I became alert already."

"But to think that you would be willing to sacrifice your lives to lower my alertness."

"What a pity..."

The elder sighed: "Even though his talent is not in forging, such people are all treasures of their tribe, it is really a shame that he died in such a manner."

"Alright, enough of the pity talk, aren't you worried about your tribesmen?"

Ye Feng had already slowed down his fireball casting, after all, he was just one person, his energy was limited.

Meanwhile, the enemies were increasing in number, he might have to use his full strength in this battle.

"There is no point in worrying."

The elder smiled and shook his head: "I see that Sir Ye Feng is not nervous either, you must be feeling prepared. Let me guess, the people from the City of Chaos?"

Ye Feng was backed by the City of Chaos, but only the Divine Forging tribe and him came, it was rather strange.

"They should be arriving soon."

Ye Feng shot a glance towards the direction of the City of Chaos before retracting his gaze, saying plainly: "They are all elites, they won't be too slow."

When Ye Feng came here, he had to protect the Divine Forging tribe members, if he went at full speed, it would be a problem if they got ambushed midway.

He was strong but he had almost faltered in the previous battle, there were only three tribes then."

Ye Feng had just said that when he suddenly showed a smile: "Speak of the devil."

"Sir Ye Feng, what do you mean by devil?"

"... No need to be concerned about that."

Indeed, the members of the City of Chaos had arrived.

"Everyone, charge!"

As what Ye Feng had said, they were all elites.

Even though there were only tens of them, in terms of combat strength, they were much stronger than the assassin earlier.

Not to mention the fact that they were each wearing mechanical armor.

Blake, who was at the forefront, charged into the battlefield in a savage manner, he was like the Deity of War, wherever he went, dwarves collapsed to the ground.

"Attacking so anxiously, isn't he afraid of hitting the wrong people..."

Ye Feng could not help but comment before turning to the six tribes: "It is time they left too."

If they continued to fight further, they would have to stake their lives. This was a battle that involved the survival of the tribes, since they were just here for the blueprint, they would not want to pay such a huge price.

As expected, not long after, the enemies started to retreat, or rather, they escaped.

"Don't chase them if you cannot catch up."

Seeing this, Ye Feng shouted and stopped those who were in a state of frenzy.

Even though the enemies were escaping, they still had ample combat strength, in an all-out fight, it was uncertain who would emerge victorious.

One side had numbers, the other side had powerful individuals.

Chapter 113: Resting and Reorganizing

"Huff... the battle is finally over."

The dwarves of the Yoruk tribe sat down on the ground, they were on an adrenaline rush during the battle, now that it was over, they felt an intense wave of fatigue that forced them to sit, they could not even stand stably.

Seeing the corpses lying around them, some started to cry.

The losses in this battle were too great, even though they claimed victory this time, the Yoruk tribe sustained immense losses from this fight.

The Yoruk tribe did not have many people to begin with, after the intense battle, they only had half of their combat strength left.

"Sigh... clean up the battlefield."

Ye Feng shook his head and walked towards the Yoruk tribe: "Blake, I'll leave the rest to you."

For example, regarding the people from the City of Chaos who came to help, he could not let them return empty-handed right?

They were involved in the fight after all, there were risks in doing so.

"What is the situation?"

Ye Feng looked at Claude and the elders of the two tribes.

"We have no issues... even though there are sacrifices, it will not cripple our strength."

Claude spoke first, the Divine Forging tribe was better equipped than the Yoruk tribe, and because they were reinforcements and not the target of the attack, they did not suffer many fatalities.

"As for us..."

The Yoruk tribe elders looked at each other, the one who spoke to Ye Feng earlier sighed and explained:" Because us old timers had the mechanical armor, only one of us died, but regarding the youngsters, too many were sacrificed. The Yoruk tribe cannot take such a blow again."

The area fell into silence.

Ye Feng's lips moved slightly but he only said a short phrase in the end: "My condolences."

"Don't worry about it, we were prepared for this from the start, since we chose to resist, this was the price to pay."

The elder smiled like he was relaxed: "Also, we made the right choice, we won in the end."

"Elders, let our two tribes form an alliance."

Suddenly, Claude said in a firm tone.

"Alliance? Aren't we already in an alliance?"

The Yoruk tribe elders did not understand him.

If they were not alliance mates, the Divine Forging tribe would not come here to save them, there were no such agreements drawn after all.

"No, another kind of alliance."

Claude shook his head and explained: "I want to create a true and complete alliance."

The elders of the Divine Forging tribe behind Claude looked at each other, they chose to keep silent.

The elders of the Yoruk tribe also turned silent.

They understood Claude's words now, he wanted to fuse the two tribes into one, other than keeping their original names and internal affairs intact, they would become a true unified tribe.

It was not a temporary alliance like the six tribes.

"You are in a weak state now, the reason why we forced them to retreat was because they did not use their full strength. But in this situation, they do not need their full strength, as long as the ones from earlier return, you will be defeated instantly."

"We cannot stay here to help you forever."

For the first time, Ye Feng felt that Claude was quite eloquent.

"Sorry, we need to discuss this first."

The Yoruk tribe elders stood up and said in a solemn tone.

Next, they left the room together.

Ye Feng looked at the elders behind Claude, they seemed to have known this beforehand.

"I didn't think you would be so eloquent." Ye Feng looked at Claude and praised.

Evidently, the Yoruk tribe elders were convinced by him.

"Hehe, I am only speaking the truth, it came from the bottom of my heart."

Claude scratched his head, he laughed innocently in embarrassment.

"Actually, this does not need eloquence, after analyzing the situation, the other party can think about it themselves, it is not hard."

An elder looked at Claude and said plainly: "Otherwise, we would not have let him speak such words."

Ye Feng was not unhappy with his attitude, he only showed a smile after seeing Claude's happy expression.

It seemed that Claude's status in the Divine Forging tribe was stabilized now.

These elders were willing to help him now, in the future, they would be part of his strength.

Not long after, the elders of the Yoruk tribe returned.

"We agree to it."

It was no surprise, this alliance was beneficial to both sides, the Yoruk tribe elders were not stupid, they had no reason to reject the proposal.

"Good."

Claude nodded: "We will discuss the details later. Let's reorganize the tribe first, today, my tribesmen will help you out."

Right now, the Yoruk tribe did not lack accommodation...

"No problem."

The elders nodded immediately: "I'm sure they won't attack for a while, we should recuperate using this opportunity."

...

After settling the matter, Ye Feng returned to the City of Chaos, he was an outsider when it came to management, there was no need to stay there.

After Ye Feng returned to his shop, he lifted his forging hammer again.

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for forging a stage four superior-grade Dancing Flame Longsword, you have obtained 5000 fire elemental points."

Ye Feng placed the weapon that he forged aside and wanted to start on a new one when Blake interrupted him.

"Teacher, people from the Yoruk tribe have come."

During this time, Blake had been training and raising his strength in the shop while Claude handled the matters of the tribe.

The two of them had switched roles.

"Let them in."

Ye Feng had already guessed their objective in coming here, after all, they had been frequently visiting him during this period.

But Ye Feng also said a few days ago that he would visit the Yoruk tribe when he was free, thus, fewer people came to find him.

"Sir Ye Feng!"

Ye Feng had an impression of the people who came in, they were two elders of the Yoruk tribe but they did not speak much last time.

They came in excitedly and pointed at the blueprint before Ye Feng.

"Look, this is a new modification we invented, if the mechanical beast is modified in such a way, not only would it become more agile, the amount of expended materials will also be much lower!"

Ye Feng looked at the blueprint with much interest as he started to discuss the content with the two of them.

"Look, the materials for the legs should be modified like this, otherwise, the burden will be too great.

"..."

"It is not worth increasing the biting force, the expenditure is too high, but we can give it a go for now."

Blake stood before the door and shook his head helplessly, he left the room and closed the door quietly.

After he left, they resumed their discussion...

Chapter 114: Osborne City's Call For Help!

For once, Ye Feng had a relatively peaceful time.

During this period of time, he stayed in the City of Chaos to forge while also going to the Divine Forging tribe and Yoruk tribe occasionally to interact with and teach them his skills.

The two tribes did not hide their information either, he had learned most of their techniques by now.

The mechanical armor, mechanical beast, and Ye Feng's forging techniques and experience, as well as the elders' experiences in their lifetime of forging.

Because both sides did not hold back on teaching the other, their forging techniques improved rapidly at an observable rate.

It was a pity, peaceful times might come, but they would not last long normally.

Not long after, Ye Feng received some information from Osborne City.

The werewolves were attacking Osborne City, the situation was not looking good.

After the informant left, Ye Feng called for his disciples with a solemn expression.

"Osborne City is in danger, I need to make a trip there, I'll leave this place to you."

"There is no point even if you go with me, the distance is too long, you may as well stay here to develop your tribe or raise your strength."

Blake and Claude were unable to rebuke Ye Feng.

They agreed to his plan as they nodded helplessly.

Ye Feng was speaking the truth, even if they went with him, it would not be helpful to them.

After making some arrangements, Ye Feng rushed towards Osborne City while bringing some mechanical beasts with him.

"Forget about Aden City... Avril is too weak, she can't be of help in this. It is also quite dangerous for her, she may as well stay in the academy to raise her strength further."

After thinking about it, Ye Feng decided not to waste time on Aden City, he went back to Osborne City at full speed.

Even though he missed Avril now, the more important thing was saving Osborne City, that was without a doubt.

He could meet her after the crisis.

But currently, the Knight's Academy of Aden City was not as peaceful as he thought.

In the huge square, two rows of students were standing, they carried their weapons and had solemn expressions.

At the front, there was the teacher who was in charge of teaching combat skills.

"You are all clear of the upcoming mission, Osborne City was attacked by werewolves, our Aden City cannot watch it happen without doing anything. The academy has chosen to send you to reinforce them, this is a rare chance to hone your skills in combat."

"You are all elite students, I don't want anything to happen to you. After the mission, I want all twenty of you to return in one piece!"

The teacher was a middle-aged man with a chin covered in scruff, he carried a heavy sword and shouted loudly: "Do you hear me?!"

He was a former mercenary but underwent a mid-life career change, yet, this did not affect his passion for teaching.

In the few years of teaching in the academy, he found that he truly fell in love with this feeling, he loved his students a lot.

He touched the heavy sword on his back and looked at the students while sighing softly.

"Understood!"

The students replied in unison.

Among them, one female voice was loud, clear, and filled with determination.

It was Avril, she was standing straight now with a bright light flickering in her eyes, showing her firm will.

If one observed her closely, they could even see the deep worry in her eyes.

The truth was, she learned of this situation much earlier than Ye Feng, back then, she intended to return immediately, it was her teacher who stopped her.

"It is too prone to accidents if you return alone, wait for some time, the academy will gather a group to reinforce the city."

Even though Avril was worried about her father's situation, she calmed down and gave up on returning alone.

Of course, there was the influence of Eric's letter.

He informed her of the situation and after realizing that her father was safe, she calmed down and waited for the academy's plan.

At the same time, she expressed her gratitude towards their help.

"Ye Feng should have received the news already... I wonder if he has the time to return and help."

Avril thought of Ye Feng and showed a faint smile on her face: "If he is coming back, where will he be by now?"

The result was that Ye Feng returned to Osborne City first, he went straight for Avril's house immediately, that was to say, Eric's house.

"Oh! My beloved son-in-law has returned!"

After hearing that Ye Feng was back, Eric came to meet him immediately.

He had already heard of Ye Feng's situation from Avril.

Ye Feng was not just strong now, forget the rest, just his status as Aden City's Knight's Academy's specially hired teacher was not something that a common person could get.

Only a stage four Blacksmith with top tier skills could receive such a treatment from the academy.

Furthermore, Eric even heard that Ye Feng easily defeated Avril's suitor, Blake, which meant that he was not any weaker than Eric.

Even though Eric had very high status in Osborne City, he had not given up on raising his own strength, thus, he was only a step away from Bronze Knight now.

"Are you alright?"

Ye Feng looked at his father-in-law, even though he was a little pale, on the whole, Eric was looking quite healthy now.

"I expended too much energy."

Eric shook his head, laughing happily: "Since you are back, let's celebrate it, I can also explain to you the current situation of Osborne City."

...

"The situation is like this."

As Eric and Ye Feng drank tea, they discussed the current situation.

Right now, Osborne City was still in a rather good state, although there were many werewolves, for some reason, they only engaged in small scale assaults, they did not engage in full blown war.

It was as if they did not care about reinforcements coming to Osborne City.

But this should not be a distraction to lure certain people away.

Even though Aden City would come and help, only some people would be mobilized. Other than the ones from the Knight's Academy, there were few who were coming.

This could not make Aden City any weaker.

While the two were talking, the door was suddenly opened abruptly.

"Father! Ye... Feng?!"

Eric and Ye Feng turned around and saw a beauty figure standing by the door.

Avril had returned.

Once she reached Osborne City, she went home straight away. Her teacher knew of her situation and did not stop her.

"Alright, you two can talk first, I have work to do."

Eric shook his head as he laughed, he left the room 'understandingly'.

"Go, let's go to my room to talk!"

Avril was slightly stunned before she went forward to grab Ye Feng's hand without feeling shy at all.

"It is too rare for us to get together, don't think of leaving today."

"Alright!"

As the two had been together for a long time, Ye Feng was not going to hold back now, he went along with Avril as they got into the room.

Chapter 115: Start of Battle

Actually, the two of them had not been separated for a long time, there was nothing much to say now.

Avril's life in the academy was as usual, the person who spoke for most of the time was Ye Feng, she only listened to his stories quietly.

The matter regarding Blake, the mechanical armor, the Yoruk tribe's mechanical beast, the battle against six allied tribes... Ye Feng was not an expert at description, but the true experiences he mentioned tugged at Avril's heart.

Even though she knew that these were past events, Avril still grabbed onto his hand while feeling nervous as she listened.

The stories only went on for a short while, soon after, they became connected physically as they lay down in bed.

But good times did not last.

A loud and sharp sound woke the two of them from their dazed state.

"The werewolves are attacking!"

Ye Feng instantly got up and looked towards Avril.

She had heard the voice as well, she frowned as she got up, tying up her hair and speaking in a tone that was full of grudge.

"Of all times to attack, why did they have to come now, this is so annoying!!"

Nobody would want to be interrupted in such a situation, but this was an important matter that they could not afford to ignore.

Ye Feng squinted as he smiled, wearing his clothes: "They are annoying indeed, therefore, I'll let them feel my rage!"

He was very unhappy too, more so than Avril. Even though he did not express it on his face, he made a decision in his mind.

He had to teach these impudent werewolves a lesson!

The two went outside together but did not head to the battlefield straightaway, they went to find Eric instead.

As one of the most authoritative people in Osborne City, it was not hard to find Eric in this situation.

Right now, Eric was together with Militan, they were instructing Osborne City's guards.

"Sir Ye Feng?"

Militan saw Ye Feng and his eyes lit up, he quickly approached the latter: "To think that you returned, Eric did not mention this at all."

As the Osborne City Lord, he had much more comprehensive information than Eric.

His information source was not just Aden City, the truth was, he even had information on the City of Chaos.

Even though the things that happened in the City of Chaos would not affect him, nobody would want to lack intel if they could get it.

Thus, he had a much clearer understanding of Ye Feng's true strength.

He was a stage four Magician and even likely a stage five Blacksmith!

Not just Osborne City, even if he was in Aden City, he would be an important person that even the City Lord would need to beg for help.

Eric looked at Militan's reaction and smiled in happiness.

Ye Feng was his son-in-law, the stronger he was, the better it would be for the entire family at this point.

"City Lord."

Ye Feng showed a smile too, his cooperation with Militan was quite successful back then, both sides were quite satisfied with each other.

In fact, after Ye Feng left, Militan still followed their earlier agreement and did not step out of line at all.

Furthermore, in Osborne City's current situation, Eric's authority was not lower than Militan.

Be it Eric, Avril, or Ye Feng, they understood that Militan was showing his goodwill.

Ye Feng could not ignore it.

"It is great that you are here, the battle will be much easier now."

Militan smiled happily, this was his true feeling.

No matter what kind of person he was, at the Osborne City Lord, he was going to live and die with the city.

He would not want Osborne City to face any danger.

"Don't worry, I'll do my best."

Ye Feng nodded solemnly, saying: "No matter what, Osborne City is my home, I will not let it get bullied like this."

Saying so, Ye Feng waved his hand as a large number of weapons and defensive equipment were taken out.

Before coming, he had already cleared his spatial bag, right now, it was filled with equipment that were useful for battle.

"This is my aid to Osborne City."

Militan and Eric looked at the pile of equipment and gasped loudly.

They were not like Ye Feng who could tell the grade of the weapon instantly, but they still had a decent amount of knowledge.

Most of these weapons were stage three, there were some stage two or four weapons as well. Even though there were fewer defensive equipment, they were mostly stage two.

Just these things alone could help Osborne City gain a huge boost in strength!

And all these were made by Ye Feng... no, they were made by his disciple.

Militan thought about the information of the City of Chaos that he had.

This was the power of a top tier Blacksmith, Militan sighed internally but he kept a solemn expression on the outside.

"Don't worry, we will not take these weapons and equipment for free, we will compensate you later on."

To speak the truth, it was too hard for Osborne City to buy these equipment, Ye Feng knew about this himself.

However, even if it was too hard, they could not take these weapons and equipment without paying anything.

Militan turned around and asked his men to move the weapons, he also showed an expression of heartache.

He would likely need to pay with his own savings, since this was a costly purchase, the distribution of the equipment would also need to be carefully considered.

He did not want to spend his own money to benefit those mercenaries.

It would be too hard to retrieve these weapons later on.

There was also no time to register them all now.

Seeing that Militan was busy with the distribution of weapons, Eric went up and smiled, saying in a low volume: "Being the City Lord is really tough, I'm glad this is not my duty."

He had quite a good life normally, he held authority but did not have many duties to perform.

Most of the time, Militan handled the affairs.

Of course, Eric's authority was not stable because of this, if Militan wanted to, he could easily take it from Eric.

But the two of them did not care about this, doing that had no benefits to Militan while Eric simply did not care, he only relied on his own strength.

"He is the City Lord after all... isn't this much better than that Donjedo?"

Ye Feng shook his head: "That guy only knows how to cause internal fighting."

Eric chuckled and did not speak anymore.

At this time, the person with almost no presence, Avril, spoke.

"I am going to the battlefield."

Throughout Ye Feng's conversation, she had been observing the battlefield.

The other students of the Knight's Academy were there, she came back here to fight as part of her training, she could not watch her classmates fight while she did nothing.

"Go ahead."

Ye Feng and Eric spoke at the same time, after looking at each other, the latter said: "Be mindful of your safety, the situation is not dangerous yet, but remember that your life is the most important thing."

Chapter 116: Forcing the Werewolves to Retreat

"I got it."

Avril nodded before leaving and heading towards the battlefield.

"The situation is not good at all."

After Avril left, Ye Feng frowned and said: "The entire force of the city should be in the battlefield already."

Even though he had left Osborne City for a long time, during this time, the city could not have developed to a tremendous level, thus, the current number of troops in the battlefield was basically all that they had.

After including the reinforcements, even if some of them were still waiting, this number was still their limit.

Osborne City definitely had to keep some people for emergency, but Ye Feng was unsure of the number, he believed that Militan and Eric would handle this appropriately.

"Indeed, our Osborne City is just too small. This time, they are attacking with more members, it seems that they have deployed all their troops as well."

Eric nodded and smiled as he replied: "Don't we have your equipment now? Our comprehensive strength will rise by thirty percent, it is enough of an advantage."

"Furthermore, we can afford to stall for time. We have reinforcements coming to help us over time, but the werewolves do not. This is their personal invasion, while our small city is not worth paying a huge price to attack."

Osborne City was just a tiny location, it was fine to take down in an invasion, but if the attempt failed, investing more troops would not be worth it anymore.

Ye Feng nodded as he looked at the battlefield.

"I should begin to help now."

Fireballs appeared out of thin air and shot towards the werewolves in the battlefield.

The werewolves that were closer could not endure these huge fireballs, other than the few who managed to dodge, the rest were incinerated and turned into ashes.

Ye Feng found that he was increasingly enjoying the use of fireball on his enemies, it was powerful and simple to use, it also did not create a commotion. This was simply a great skill!

Of course, this method could only be used by him alone.

...

Blinton was an Intermediate Knight, he was an extremely ordinary person, having passable strength in this small Osborne City.

He had grown up in Osborne City, although he had ventured out to see the world in the past, he still loved his hometown.

Not long ago, he returned to Osborne City to visit his family, but to think that at this time, the werewolves attacked the city!

Blinton did not hesitate at all, he immediately entered the battlefield.

After killing another werewolf, Blinton stood on the spot and breathed roughly.

He saw that weapons were being distributed at the base, but it was too far from him now, he could not rush back in time.

If he tried to return now, he would be in greater danger instead.

Suddenly, he felt a strong gust of wind behind him, the tired Blinton could not react in time, he could only roll away and dodge the assault.

On the battlefield, no action was too embarrassing, saving his life was the most important thing.

Several wounds that were not too deep appeared on his arm.

Blinton immediately got up, charging towards the werewolf that attacked him earlier.

This werewolf was in the same condition as him at his peak, it would be very hard to win in this battle.

Furthermore, Blinton looked to the left and saw another werewolf approaching.

He had to risk his life now.

Bam!

With a soft sound, Blinton's longsword slashed the neck of the werewolf while his left arm was cut off, he gritted his teeth and continued to fight.

Earlier, he lost his left arm as the price to kill one of the two werewolves attacking him.

But that was all he could do, he had no strength to fight the other werewolf.

In his daze, he saw the werewolf's sword as he smiled bitterly.

Earlier, the previous werewolf did not use a weapon, it caused him to forget this fact, it was over now.

He shut his eyes and let the images of his wife and daughter fade out, when he opened his eyes again, only resolve could be seen.

He wanted to protect his family.

At this time, he felt an intense heat coming from one side, when he turned around, he saw that the werewolf was hit by a fireball.

Even though he did not understand what just happened, he still went up and ended the life of this werewolf immediately.

He turned to look at the direction of the fireball.

Ye Feng who was standing on high ground did not conceal himself, he shot out fireballs arrogantly.

As Blinton was quite far from Ye Feng, even though the fireball managed to hit the werewolf, it did not kill him but only caused heavy injuries.

Ye Feng nodded at Blinton lightly before turning to help out the others.

The werewolf earlier was only an Intermediate Knight, if he was any closer, Ye Feng could end it with just one fireball.

But how could the battlefield be so simple...

Ye Feng looked around the entire place.

Eric had already entered the battlefield after wearing mechanical armor, with the help of the weapons and mechanical beasts, Osborne City had already gained the advantage.

The mechanical beasts scared many people when they first appeared.

After all, the mechanical beasts did not look like they were on Osborne City's side.

After receiving Militan's notice, and realizing that the mechanical beasts were not attacking them, everyone relaxed and felt a surge in morale, even though they were fewer in numbers, they were actually forcing the werewolves back.

With Ye Feng's equipment supporting them and together with these mechanical beasts, if they still lost this fight, it would be an embarrassment to Osborne City!

At this time, Avril was performing incredibly on the battlefield.

As Ye Feng's closest person, he naturally did his best to protect her.

Other than top tier weapon and defensive equipment, Avril was also wearing a newly created simplified version of the mechanical armor.

In truth, this was created specially for her by Ye Feng.

It was expensive and did not amplify combat strength by a lot, its only advantage was... suitability!

Avril was able to fully display the power of this mechanical armor, it was like her own body, even though it could not amplify her combat strength to a great extent, it was very suitable for a battlefield like this.

Using these equipment that he gave her, even when Avril faced powerful enemies, she was still able to put up a fight!

"Aren't those werewolves retreating yet?"

Ye Feng looked at the corpses on the ground and frowned to himself: "If they continue to fight us like this, everyone will end up perishing. Even though Osborne City will be greatly weakened, these werewolves will also be close to extinction."

The werewolves did not live in a peaceful environment like the humans.

If they suffered a huge loss, the werewolf tribe would be devoured by other tribes!

"Are they finally retreating?"

While thinking about it, Ye Feng looked at the battlefield and saw that the werewolves were retreating quickly, they were close to running for their lives.

"Sigh... the losses are too severe."

Ye Feng shook his head and went to look for Militan, planning to learn more about the details of the aftermath.

Chapter 117: Something Is Wrong

When Ye Feng found Militan, the latter seemed to be busy, Ye Feng chose not to bother him and went to find Avril instead.

Right now, Avril had already left the Knight's Academy's group, she was with Eric.

Eric looked at his daughter who was tending to her wounds skillfully, he showed an expression of pride and joy.

He was an Advanced Knight, one of the most authoritative people in Osborne City, he would not be like the common parent and want his daughter to live obediently.

In his perspective, the stronger his daughter became, the better it would be. As for the matter of starting a family... with Ye Feng here, there was nothing to worry about.

In this battle, Avril's performance far exceeded his expectations, evidently, the Knight's Academy had taught her well.

Eric took a look at Avril's extravagant mechanical armor and shook his head, suppressing the envy in his heart.

This mechanical armor that was tailor made for Avril was not just powerful, it also looked very stunning when it was worn on her.

"What is the situation?"

Ye Feng arrived and saw Avril, he immediately took over the bandage in her hand and treated her wounds for her, he completely ignored Eric's 'grudging' gaze behind him.

"This mechanical armor is very useful, it raised my strength to a huge extent. I did not suffer many injuries."

Avril noticed her father's expression smiled sweetly: "Thank you."

"Why are you thanking me now?"

Ye Feng showed a stiff expression and said solemnly: "Tell me, what is our relationship?"

Avril did not reply, she only got closer to Ye Feng's face.

"Ugh..."

Eric looked at his daughter and son-in-law who were in their own world, he covered his own face and shook his head helplessly, turning around and leaving this place.

If he continued to watch this, he might not be able to control himself.

The two did not stay together for too long, after Ye Feng treated Avril's wounds, the two of them left.

"343 people were sacrificed, 142 people are heavily injured or crippled..."

Militan rubbed the corner of his eyes as he said with heartache: "Our losses were too huge, Osborne City has basically nobody left now."

"Just in case, I will stay in Osborne City for some time."

Ye Feng said beside him: "When I leave, I will let some mechanical beasts stay here, if anything happens, inform me at the first moment."

He had already modified the mechanical beasts, he was not afraid of anyone taking them to steal the method of making them, the mechanical armor that he gave to Eric earlier was not taken back either.

After all, Eric was his father-in-law, even though the mechanical armor was previous, he could afford to give it away, in fact, he could afford to give a bunch of them away.

"Thanks."

Militan sighed, he did not have the mood for other things now: "I'll take my leave first, there are many things that I need to resolve in Osborne City."

He was not lying, as the City Lord, Militan had many things to do during normal times, now that a huge battle had just ended, he had even more affairs to handle, Militan was way too busy at the moment.

Ye Feng nodded, right now, Militan and Eric were busy handling the city's affairs, while Avril was at a gathering with her classmates, until the Knight's Academy's people left, Avril would not have time to spend with him.

"Then I'll return to the Blacksmith Shop first."

After Ye Feng returned to the Blacksmith Shop, he packed up the place and put up a board that was similar to the one in Aden City.

"Bring your own materials for free forging of weapons."

But different from that time, this was Osborne City, Ye Feng's hometown, while that was Aden City with nobody knowing who Ye Feng was.

In Osborne City, almost everyone knew who Ye Feng was!

But this time, Ye Feng added one condition.

"This offer is limited to only the people who participated in the battle against the werewolves."

Back then in Aden City, he needed to raise his own strength through this, but now was different. Osborne City needed stage three weapons mostly, they could not raise his strength by much anymore.

It would be a marginal gain.

He was trying to compensate those warriors who worked hard to defend their hometown.

...

"Did you hear that Sir Ye Feng is back?"

"That means, we can ask him to forge again?"

"And the most important thing is, Sir Ye Feng is forging for free, we just need to bring the materials... I heard he is compensating us for participating in this battle."

"Why do we need to be compensated for protecting our own home... Sir Ye Feng is really a good person, why aren't we going there yet?!"

Even though news spread around Osborne City quickly, there were not many people who came to Ye Feng.

On one hand, some of the people had died, the remaining ones were mostly injured, they were recuperating at home now, how could they come to find Ye Feng now?

On the other hand, after the battle ended, the surviving ones still held onto the weapons that Ye Feng provided earlier.

Militan also said that he would not take back the weapons, thus, they did not need to find Ye Feng to forge another weapon.

Normally, people would not have so many spare materials lying around. If they already had a weapon, they would choose to save their materials to forge a more powerful and suitable weapon for themselves in the future.

The main cost of forging was usually the material cost, compared to expensive materials, the forging fee was nothing.

Money was much easier to get than these rare and exotic materials.

For the following week, Ye Feng stayed in Osborne City and did not leave, but the werewolf tribe also did not attack them anymore.

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for forging a stage four superior-grade Raging Wind Hammer, you have obtained 4000 fire elemental points."

Ye Feng tossed the weapon aside and stretched his body before leaving the room.

By now, no customers came anymore. Those that had any needs had already come during the week.

Most people were recuperating now, few would leave Osborne City for exploration, how could they fight with injured bodies?

This caused the demand for weapons to fall, thus, Ye Feng had some free time to himself.

Once he left his room, he saw a beautiful figure swinging her sword around, her posture was elegant but powerful, Ye Feng was in a daze as he watched.

"You stopped forging?"

Avril, who had just practiced her sword technique, noticed Ye Feng and smiled as she walked to him.

"Yeah... I'm resting now."

Ye Feng regained his senses and frowned a little.

He had a strange feeling, this period of time had been too peaceful.

"What's going on? You look worried."

"I have a feeling..."

While Ye Feng was speaking, someone barged in.

Ye Feng had an impression of this person, he seemed to be from the City Lord Manor, he was Militan's subordinate, a close aide in fact.

"Sir Ye Feng, the City of Chaos is under attack! According to our information, it seems to be led by the dwarf tribes!"

Report chapter Comments

Chapter 118: Situation in the City of Chaos

"The dwarf tribes?!"

Ye Feng squinted as killing intent surged out of his body: "The Iron Hammer tribe... is simply too daring!"

The person who brought the information was not strong, after sensing Ye Feng's pressure, his legs started to shake uncontrollably.

In his eyes, Ye Feng was currently like a terrifying huge beast that growled at him menacingly.

"Ye Feng..."

Avril grabbed Ye Feng's hand lightly and brought him back to his senses.

"Sorry."

Ye Feng retracted his aura and said to the informant: "I got it, help me thank Militan."

"I will take my leave."

The person sighed in relief as he quickly left the place.

The truth was, Militan sent him here for this sentence.

Ye Feng was going to get the information sooner or later, by coming to him first, Militan could gain Ye Feng's favor now.

"I need to hurry up and return."

Ye Feng watched the person leave before turning to Avril: "Go back to the Knight's Academy and train, I will set off after packing up."

"Don't you need help?"

"No, just my return is sufficient."

Ye Feng shook his head: "Furthermore, bringing people will slow me down, I can move more freely on my own."

"Yeah, I believe in you."

Avril smiled gently and hugged Ye Feng: "Stay safe."

"Don't worry."

...

Ye Feng moved rapidly in the forest, he was already quite close to the City of Chaos now.

"Void Slash!"

After killing another mutated beast in his way, Ye Feng skillfully retrieved its crystal core.

This route was the fastest way and could save him time, but the trade-off was that it had much greater danger, of course, there were nothing that could threaten Ye Feng.

He did not enter deeply into the forest so the mutated beasts he encountered were not strong, he could kill them with one Void Slash, it was just that retrieving their cores took some time.

But right now, he was experienced enough to extract the core in just several breaths of time.

He might not be as skilled as those experienced mercenaries when it came to dissecting mutated beasts, but in terms of retrieving the crystal core, he was not slower than anyone.

"I wonder how the situation in the City of Chaos is like, with my equipment and the mechanical beasts, there should not be a huge problem..."

Ye Feng sighed and raised his speed further.

Since Militan informed him of the matter, it should not be a small problem. If it was not a threat that required Ye Feng to resolve personally, Militan would not be doing him a favor by telling him, that would be a trap.

The Iron Hammer tribe was simply too daring... and also very petty.

To think that they would attack the City of Chaos directly, was it just for revenge?

Ye Feng considered the question in his mind but he did not slow down his movement, he soon reached the City of Chaos.

However...

Ye Feng looked at the ruins and felt increasingly angry.

His Blacksmith Shop had been destroyed, but there was nothing important left inside. Blake and Claude should have taken the valuables, only the ruined remains of the shop was left.

They seemed to have immense hatred towards Ye Feng's Blacksmith Shop, it was obviously targeted more harshly than the other buildings.

If not for Ye Feng's good memory, by just looking at the ruins, he could not imagine that it used to be a Blacksmith Shop.

Ye Feng continued to go deeper into the city, along the way, he saw all sorts of corpses littered on the ground.

Not just humans, there were also beast tribe corpses of all races, there were even indigenous people from the City of Chaos.

From the clothing and appearance of the corpses, he could tell that these beast tribe members and humans were fighting intensely.

Ye Feng looked at the corpses with a plain gaze, his head was lowered slightly as his expression became hidden.

But he clenched his fists and released a powerful aura around him, his deep anger could be sensed just by looking at him.

"The Auction House was destroyed too?"

Ye Feng continued to move without stopping as he muttered: "It seems that they are really going all-in."

The City of Chaos was destroyed beyond recognition, even the neutral force, the Auction House, was destroyed, it seemed that the enemies were bent on war.

...

"Blake, how are you, can you still continue?"

Claude sat beside Blake and said in a rough tone: "My stamina is almost depleted."

Saying so, he exerted his strength to block the hammer that approached him.

Claude had strong forging skills, but that was all. In terms of combat strength, he was only on par with an ordinary Intermediate Knight.

Because he was focused on forging, how could he have the time to spend on training his combat strength?

"I am still a member of the Knight's Academy, with teacher's equipment, you must believe in my strength."

Blake took huge strides as he waved his stage five heavy sword, cutting off an arm of the attacking beastman.

The armor on the beastman's arm had no use, in fact, Blake did not feel any resistance when he slashed.

Blake was used to such a situation, he raised his sword and attacked another werewolf.

His teacher was Ye Feng! A Blacksmith capable of creating stage five weapons! He had an extravagant array of equipment on him now.

If that unique mechanical armor was not considered, his equipment was even better than Avril's.

"Go and rest for now, safety is the most important thing, I don't want teacher to return to see that only one of us is left."

Claude ignored Blake's words and went back to fighting after taking his medicine: "These werewolves are so troublesome, but it seems like they are not from just one tribe?"

Even though they were all werewolves, from their clothes, he could tell one difference.

"Indeed."

Blake took a few deep breaths and said seriously: "Some of these beastmen are not from the tribes near the City of Chaos. The Iron Hammer tribe is really amazing, they could get these werewolves to attack us while they watch at the back."

The Heavenly Forging tribe or Iron Hammer tribe did not participate in this battle, as if it had nothing to do with them.

"I wonder when teacher is returning to help us."

Claude sighed as he dodged the attack of a boar-headed beastman: "If there are only the werewolves, we can still handle it... but it is really hard to fight against so many different beastmen."

Some were specialized in offense, some had great defense, while some were fast. These beastmen cooperated seamlessly, they could make up for the deficiency in weaponry.

But in terms of numbers, the City of Chaos had Ye Feng and the Yoruk tribe's mechanical beasts, they were evenly matched.

Yet, the deaths were still astonishingly high, until now, with just one's eyes, they could see that there were close to a thousand dead collectively on both sides.

Chapter 119: Ye Feng Enters The Battlefield

"He should be back soon..."

Claude answered casually: "Normally speaking, teacher should have gotten the news already, but we do not know how long he'll take to get here."

They had already sent people to inform Osborne City long ago.

It was a pity that the person did not get to meet Ye Feng. A few minutes after he left Osborne City, the person arrived.

They had missed each other.

"Regardless, we need to persevere."

Blake sighed: "We cannot let them destroy the entire City of Chaos!"

The two of them looked at the beastmen who were getting closer, they raised their weapons and charged relentlessly.

Right now, the two of them were important targets for the enemy, but many people on the side of the City of Chaos were providing them support.

Otherwise, the two of them could not last so long.

Suddenly, a fireball that was the size of a human head appeared in thin air and shot out towards the beastmen who were invading the City of Chaos.

Everyone in the City of Chaos were stunned by this signature spell.

Ye Feng was back!

The beastmen who were hit instantly turned into ashes without surprise.

Compared to the fireballs that were more explosive in nature, Ye Feng preferred to use such flames that obliterated his enemies.

Because the area of effect was small, it would not hurt allies. The power was also incredible, far surpassing explosive fireballs.

Of course, this was in a normal situation, under certain situations, he would use the most appropriate spells.

"However, I do not want to rely on fireballs today."

Ye Feng laughed sinisterly as he entered the battlefield.

He was very very angry now, although he was not too close with the people in the City of Chaos, they were still acquainted.

He did not think of himself as a sage without emotions, but he was also not someone who easily succumbed to emotions.

He only knew that he was very angry and annoyed now, especially earlier, when he saw those familiar faces lying as corpses on the ground, he knew he could not suppress his anger.

"Teacher!"

"Teacher!"

Two voices resounded and calmed his anger for a moment.

Ye Feng looked at his disciples and nodded, saying 'stay safe' before charging towards his enemies.

The two disciples were left looking at each other.

"What is up with teacher..."

Blake shook his head in confusion.

Earlier, the surrounding beastmen were killed by Ye Feng, they had the time to relax and recover now.

"Who knows..."

Claude shook his head and looked at the corpses with pity and sadness.

He had been in the City of Chaos for as long as Ye Feng, because he was Ye Feng's disciple, he had not been bullied much, he naturally developed some feelings for his 'neighbors'.

"Even though I am unsure of the exact situation, I can still tell something."

Blake raised his heavy sword and looked at the battlefield: "Teacher is really angry now."

Anyone could tell that Ye Feng was fuming, he was someone who disliked combat, even if he had to fight, he would use fireballs to easily resolve the situation.

But now, he charged into the enemy's fray!

"No kidding!"

Claude looked at Blake and scoffed, the two of them had a close relationship now, even though they were fellow disciples, they behaved like close brothers who did not need to be polite to each other.

"Anyone with eyes can tell that teacher's mood is extremely poor now."

Claude looked at Ye Feng who was an unstoppable war machine, he did not know who he should pity at this moment.

"Void Slash!"

After killing another beastman, Ye Feng turned around expressionlessly to find his next target.

Looking at the blood on his body and his indifferent expression, together with that shockingly powerful aura, Ye Feng was simply like a Demon King who had entered the battlefield!

Some beastmen even ran in fear when Ye Feng got close.

"You are Ye Feng?"

A werewolf approached him as he licked his claw covered in blood, his ruthless expression could be observed clearly.

"I heard you are a formidable enemy? Allow me to retrieve your head as my victory trophy!"

Ye Feng frowned and said impatiently: "Cut the crap."

Even though this werewolf was here to send himself to death's door, it was obvious that he had succeeded in wasting Ye Feng's time.

Ye Feng did not speak, he slashed at this werewolf.

"Heh, I like people like you, it gives me a sense of accomplishment when I kill you."

The werewolf lowered his body and charged up fearlessly.

"Void Slash!"

"Hehe, I am prepared against this move... wait what?!"

Ye Feng did not use Void Slash, this werewolf was only an Advanced Knight, he seemed to be mentally challenged, Ye Feng did not want to waste his Void Slash so easily.

Ye Feng used his advantage in speed and strength, after kneeing the werewolf, he slashed at the throat.

With his peak Bronze Knight strength, how could he have trouble against such trash?

The werewolf did not even get to react in time before Ye Feng killed him.

"Idiot!"

After saying that, Ye Feng continued on his slaughter streak.

...

"None of you told us that Ye Feng is so strong?!"

Far away, a werewolf with considerable age screamed.

Facing him were several dwarves from the Iron Hammer tribe.

"We mentioned it, but you did not care."

The dwarves tried to suppress the lack of confidence in their tone, even though they mentioned Ye Feng's strength, it was only a passing remark, it would not raise any attention.

But to think that Ye Feng got the information so quickly and returned to help.

"That is my son! My son!"

The werewolf leader screamed and stared at the dwarves: "I'll remember this, you will have to pay me the appropriate price later."

Saying so, he charged into the battlefield, he seemed to be heading towards Ye Feng.

The dwarves sighed in relief, someone asked: "Is he looking for revenge with Ye Feng?"

"Likely so."

"That is his son after all."

"There is a chance that he will not be able to make us pay the price later."

They understood Ye Feng's strength.

The werewolf leader was a peak Bronze Knight, he might be stronger than Ye Feng, but the extent was likely to be small.

And most importantly, Ye Feng was a Magician, even though he was fighting at close range now, it did not mean that he would not use magic if he got into danger.

The werewolf leader was definitely not Ye Feng's match, of course, escaping should not be an issue.

At this time, the werewolf leader reached Ye Feng.

Chapter 120: Battle Concludes

"Another one?"

Ye Feng frowned, he looked at the tall figure, even though he felt that most werewolves looked the same, his intuition told him that this werewolf was here for a different reason.

But regardless of the reason, since he had a death wish, Ye Feng would satisfy him.

"Since you killed my son, you should prepare yourself to get slaughtered by me."

The werewolf gritted his teeth, even though he was angry, he did not attack rashly without thinking.

A leader could not be so stupid, Ye Feng was a tough enemy, even though he was not worried about losing, he had to be very serious now.

But he only had one son, no matter how logical he was now, he could not let the killer of his son roam freely on this battlefield.

"We need a boost of morale too."

The werewolf leader looked at the surroundings and felt the surging morale of the members of the City of Chaos.

This happened after Ye Feng appeared, since he had such a reputation in the city, it was even more necessary to kill him now.

If he did so, it would also be beneficial to the battle situation.

Getting revenge while improving the chances of winning the overall battle, why would he give up such a chance?

Even though he was not sure of Ye Feng's strength, the werewolf leader was confident in himself. He trusted in his own combat strength, after all, he was one of the strongest experts among Bronze Knights!

And Ye Feng was definitely not a Silver Knight, otherwise, this battle would be meaningless.

A Silver Knight could not decide the victory of a large scale battle, but in this battlefield, one Silver Knight would easily decide the outcome.

"Your son?"

Ye Feng raised his head and laughed to himself: "I killed many werewolves earlier, which one is your son? Or rather, is your son a werewolf?"

"Hmph."

The werewolf leader did not reply, light flickered on his body as his speed rose greatly!

He knew a few simple spells, he was barely considered a One Star Magician, relying on these spells, he managed to defeat opponents of similar strength.

If not for this, with his poor personal relationships in the tribe, he could not have become the leader.

"Oh... I remember now."

Ye Feng blocked the werewolf leader's attack as his expression turned serious, however, he did not stop talking: "Is it that werewolf with mental illness? The one who came up and spoke rubbish before dying in vain?"

"His suicidal tendency resembles you a lot, it is as expected of your son I guess."

Ye Feng raised his hand and shot out several fireballs at the werewolf leader.

Even though fireball seemed like a low level spell, that depended on the user.

Ye Feng's countless fire elemental points were not for show, no matter how weak the fireball spell was originally, after Ye Feng's amplification, each one could cause huge damage to Bronze Knights.

"Damn it..."

Before the werewolf leader finished his words, Ye Feng got closer and interrupted him.

"Ahhhhhh."

The werewolf leader had no time to extinguish the fire, he had to endure the pain and attack in a frenzy, trying to kill Ye Feng first.

"You are a mere..."

The werewolf leader's claw slashed towards Ye Feng, at the same time, while he growled, a sharp spear stabbed out from the area near his heart.

This spear was familiar to Ye Feng, it was one of the stage four weapons that he made earlier.

Ye Feng got close to the werewolf leader and said in a low tone: "This is the battlefield."

Next, he let the werewolf leader fall as he looked towards the beauty who stood behind.

"Sir Ye Feng."

The beauty nodded before leaving.

She was also a Bronze Knight, within the City of Chaos, her strength was top tier. She was coincidentally close to Ye Feng earlier, so after seeing this werewolf, she sneaked closer and waited for Ye Feng to create an opportunity for her attack.

"Retreat!"

A loud voice called out, it might be because the werewolf leader was dead, but the beastmen were starting to escape from the battlefield.

After all, this werewolf leader had peak Bronze Knight strength.

"Why does this scene look so familiar... I've seen this many times already."

After this intense battle, Ye Feng calmed down a lot, he rubbed his temples to clear up his mind as he turned to the inner area of the City of Chaos and brought along several heavily injured members.

This battlefield was within the City of Chaos itself, but it was not at the central location.

Ye Feng looked at the destroyed buildings and injured people as he sighed to himself along the way.

"Teacher, I'll help you."

Blake saw Ye Feng and quickly came to assist with moving the injured.

Ye Feng did not reject his offer, he went into the temporary base with Blake.

"What is the situation?"

Ye Feng had said this line many times, he did not want to say it anymore.

Such a short time had passed, but the Yoruk tribe was attacked, Osborne City was assaulted, and now, the City of Chaos was destroyed.

He really had no time to relax at all.

"The situation is quite bad."

Blake first said with a solemn expression before continuing: "But it is not the worst, the number of injured people is far less than we expected, more of the damage was on the buildings, the City of Chaos' buildings are almost all in ruins."

When those beastmen first entered the City of Chaos, they focused on destroying the buildings, some even ignored our retaliation.

"The important thing is that the people are fine..."

Ye Feng sighed and shook his head: "We can rebuild buildings but we cannot revive people."

Looking at the ruins around the place, Ye Feng felt heartache too. But compared to human lives, there was no doubt which was more important.

"Sir Ye Feng."

"Master Ye Feng."

"Sir Ye Feng."

Ye Feng saw many familiar faces around him.

Some had asked Ye Feng to forge weapons for them, some had assisted him in the Yoruk tribe incident, some had even tested out the mechanical armor for him.

But thankfully, those who could greet him here were mostly fine.

"I will do my best to help the rebuilding of the City of Chaos."

Ye Feng stood firmly and said to the people: "I understand that I may not be as useful as some specialists in this, but I am still a decent Blacksmith, I should be of help."

He spoke slowly but seriously.

"Hahaha, Master Ye Feng, don't joke with us, if you are considered somewhat useful, what are the other Blacksmiths?"

"Hahaha, that is right, Sir Ye Feng, don't be so humble..."

Ye Feng understood that they were trying to liven up the atmosphere, but he had already expressed his intention, there was no need to ruin the mood now.

Chapter 121: Barging Into Enemy Camp Alone

At this time, the City of Chaos experienced peace.

After so many years, this was the first time the City of Chaos felt such peace, it was quite ironic considering the name.

For the last two weeks, the entire City of Chaos, including Ye Feng and his two disciples, were working hard to rebuild the city.

Their relationship with the residents of the City of Chaos also improved greatly, after all, the fastest way to improve one's relationship was to experience difficulties together.

There was nothing more connecting than fighting in life-and-death battles together.

"Heh... To think that I would end up forging tools one day."

Ye Feng forged a two meter long shovel as he joked: "Ever seen a stage two shovel?"

In the past, he had either made weapons or defensive equipment, he even made high tier mechanical armor and beasts.

But to speak the truth, this was the first time he was making common tools.

"Teacher, I've actually had."

Blake who was also forging coughed lightly, saying lightly: "Even though it is not a tool, I have seen a stage two shovel before, it has offensive power so it is considered a weapon."

The world was huge, all kinds of weapons existed. Even all those special and weird weapons were usable by people, not to mention the relatively normal shovel.

And truthfully, other than its function and appearance, this was quite a good weapon.

"You speak too much."

Ye Feng stared at his talkative disciple and said: "I will go and take revenge on those damned beastmen eventually."

No matter what reason the beastmen had in attacking the City of Chaos, since they attacked, they had to prepare themselves and face revenge.

"Those dwarves too."

Blake reminded him: "Many people noticed that many dwarves showed up in the vicinity, we recognized people from the Iron Hammer tribe and Heavenly Forging tribe, but we could not differentiate the rest."

After the battle started, no dwarf appeared. However, they were too outstanding in appearance, it was too hard to miss them.

"It must be that Iron Hammer tribe, or maybe that Heavenly Forging tribe."

Ye Feng did not even need to think about it before putting the blame on these two tribes, it was only natural.

The other tribes did not have as much hatred with Ye Feng and the City of Chaos than them.

Earlier, they were the first ones to attack the Yoruk tribe, Ye Feng had not taken revenge with them yet. As long as the other tribes were sensible, they would not provoke him now.

Even if those dwarves who appeared earlier were impersonating them, Ye Feng did not want to care about it. Without clear evidence now, he had to assume it was the Iron Hammer tribe.

"Those beastmen are so strange, can't they approach us to cooperate, why must they side with those useless people?"

Ye Feng tossed his hammer aside and said helplessly: "We had no grudges to begin with, was there a need to pay such a huge price?"

"I..."

Bam!

Blake was about to speak when the door was opened, interrupting him.

"Teacher, the enemies are attacking again!"

Claude, who was busy outside, ran in and said while panting heavily: "They are led by the Iron Hammer tribe!"

The Iron Hammer tribe was actually attacking now! And there were no other tribes present, they were only attacking with the beastmen!

"They are courting death!"

Ye Feng stared fiercely and charged out of the Blacksmith Shop without waiting for his disciples.

...

After half a month of hard work, the external defense of the City of Chaos was half completed, even though the attackers included the Iron Hammer tribe, it was true that the beast tribes also suffered great losses earlier, their numbers and strength were much lower.

"This time, we just need those who are in better condition and have sufficient strength to fight."

Blake followed after him and observed the situation while saying: "We are the defensive side, we have the advantage here. The Iron Hammer tribe is not strong as a whole, while the beast tribes are not sending many members, this battle should not be hard.

Because there were fewer attackers, there was no need to prepare excessively. As the City of Chaos was in high alert during this period, they found the enemies' attack at the first moment.

After speaking, he raised his volume and shouted to the entire City of Chaos, everyone could hear him.

"Everyone, fight to the best of your ability! Show them the consequences of infuriating us!"

"Kill!"

Although he did not use complex words, Blake was able to raise the morale of the City of Chaos.

On one hand, the previous battle had created too much anger in everyone, on the other hand, Blake's recent performance earned him quite a reputation in the City of Chaos, he was able to lead everyone now.

Seeing this, Ye Feng understood the reason and smiled gladly.

There was not much contribution from him in this aspect. Undoubtedly, Blake was an excellent leader, it was a pity that he was too stubborn and hard to change.

This was both a good and bad trait, in the event regarding Avril earlier, if Ye Feng did not have a good temper, Blake would have been crippled if not dead.

After all, how could a normal person stand such an annoying situation, not to mention it was over a girl.

'But now, he is much better...' Ye Feng thought as he shot out many fireballs.

This time, he used a type of fireball that was explosive in nature. After all, there were no allies on the other side, this wide range attack was much more effective.

It was also a sight to behold!

Hearing the chain of explosions, Ye Feng's lips curled up into a smile.

It was no wonder that many people enjoyed creating explosives, the feeling was really euphoric.

This battle ended quickly quicker than expected.

Expectedly, the beastmen were different from the Iron Hammer tribe's dwarves.

Once the Iron Hammer tribe members suffered many casualties, they ran in panic, they did not have the courage of the beastmen.

Not even beastmen, they could not compare to humans in fact.

And this time, the City of Chaos suffered no deaths, after all, the participants were all elites, and because they were prepared and well equipped, even though many got injured, none were severe.

"Hahahaha, are these dwarves here to make us laugh, they are sending themselves to death's doors?"

Someone laughed: "These losers are far inferior to Claude and the rest, are they really qualified to be called dwarves?"

Was he praising Claude?

Ye Feng turned around and heard the person say: "Blake, you must pass my words to Claude, get him to thank me."

"Hahaha, wishful thinking!"

Blake laughed and pointed at the guy: "I was wondering why you would praise him for no reason!"

"Haha..."

Ye Feng laughed and shook his head, he observed the direction that the Iron Hammer tribe escaped in.

His anger had not subsided.

He was going to 'play' at the Iron Hammer tribe's territory now.

Chapter 122: Probing

With his current strength, together with the mechanical armor, he could easily deal with one Iron Hammer tribe.

He had developed an idea earlier, he did not think that the Iron Hammer tribe would set a trap for him here... They did not have the intelligence to do so.

Even if there was more than the Iron Hammer tribe waiting, or even if they were prepared for him, there should be no problem with escaping later.

The Iron Hammer tribe had truly angered him, he was going to teach them a lesson that they would not forget.

Because he came here before, Ye Feng soon found the location of the Iron Hammer tribe.

But different from what Ye Feng thought, the current Iron Hammer tribe was not in a nervous state, other than a few people, the rest were acting like they were in normal times.

They were relaxed and not prepared for war, or rather, they were even more carefree than usual.

Did they think that the City of Chaos would be unable to repel them? Or were they not afraid of an attack because they had huge numbers?

Ye Feng laughed coldly in his heart, he thought to himself in disdain.

Furthermore, the main combatants were the beast tribe members, the Iron Hammer tribe members were not doing much.

But it was understandable. Because the City of Chaos was still rebuilding now, even though it was nearly done, it did not have time to find trouble with the Iron Hammer tribe.

They were just unimportant weaklings.

After observing the Iron Hammer tribe's situation, Ye Feng chose to sneak in.

He could not kill all of the Iron Hammer tribe members and beastmen at one go, he might as well go in to search for information.

If he got discovered, he could still fight, it would not be too late. The most important thing was to maximize his benefits.

Even though he was very angry now, he had not lost his composure, he knew which was the best method to maximize his advantage.

The patrolling dwarves had an unexpectedly low level of alertness, even someone like Ye Feng who was not trained at concealment managed to get in without detection.

Of course, the patrolling teams were also slacking off.

Regardless, Ye Feng was still a Bronze Knight, he could control himself to not emit any noise and also stay out of people's vision.

Soon, Ye Feng reached the central area. Be it the house's size or location, one thing was screaming out to him: This is the most important place, quickly get in!

But this was normal, as a mere dwarf tribe, how could they bother with so many fancy things.

But this was an important location after all, the guards were harder to deal with. Although they were not guarded in all directions, the house was reinforced and surrounded, beastmen and dwarves were working together to protect the place.

Ye Feng waited for a long time before he found an opportunity, he jumped in his mechanical armor and reached the rooftop in one move.

When Ye Feng landed, although he tried, there was still a soft sound, but it was easily ignored due to the softness.

The people inside the house were speaking loudly, it was clear that they could not hear this small commotion.

Ye Feng did not intend to do anything now, he only stayed on the roof and listened to the conversation inside.

"The City of Chaos is very alert now, your method will definitely fail."

At this time, a deep voice spoke.

Ye Feng was not familiar with the higher-ups of the Iron Hammer tribe and beastmen, he could not tell who the speaker was.

But it was not an issue, he only needed to know what they were talking about, Ye Feng only wanted results.

No matter who they were, these were all enemies, the only difference was the extent of grudge they had.

"Not necessarily, our earlier attack on them caused no harm, they have really high morale now, their alertness has definitely fallen."

A calm voice spoke in a softer tone but was filled with greater confidence.

"Hmph, you still have the cheeks to speak. None of the enemies died while we lost so many comrades... were you sending them to their demise?"

The deep voice raised his volume.

"Didn't my men die too? Sacrifices are necessary at times, this loss is much smaller than our previous battle, as long as it can give us enough benefits, so what if we sacrificed them?"

The calm voice did not back down, he explained: "Since we've already done it, we should continue with the plan."

He did not say anything wrong, since those people were sacrificed already, they should let their deaths display the greatest value, right?

Right at this time, another voice spoke: "Keep this plan for now, we need to have several backup plans just in case of emergencies."

"I have another idea."

A fourth voice spoke, even Ye Feng did not know how many people were in this meeting now.

"What idea?"

"I have a group of people specialized in infiltration..."

Ye Feng was a Blacksmith, he had immense patience, he stayed on the rooftop and listened to their entire discussion.

"Alright, the meeting will end here. I've prepared some delicious food, we can eat while we rest."

These words were clearly said by an Iron Hammer tribe member.

"They are so relaxed... but I need to send this information back as well."

Ye Feng watched as they left the room, he frowned: "Forget it, this is not urgent. They still need to prepare themselves first, I just need to return before them."

The guards left after these people dispersed, nobody knew where they went, this was truly a relaxed place with no sense of danger.

After Ye Feng confirmed that there were no threats, he left the place secretly without getting found.

"I can't leave empty-handed after making this trip."

Not long after, Ye Feng stood outside the Iron Hammer tribe and smiled to himself: "Let's see who will be the lucky winner of my 'gift'!"

Even though he was smiling, his tone was cold.

Ye Feng wanted to wait here and see if he could plunder anyone who came.

He could not defeat an entire tribe by himself, but if anyone was 'alone', he would be able to strike.

If he did not do this, his anger would not be vented, even though he had calmed down a lot already, he could not return without doing anything.

Ye Feng did not go too far away, he patiently waited outside the Iron Hammer tribe from a close by location.

But he did not need to wait for long, after an hour, someone came in this direction.

And it was a familiar face too.

Or rather, a familiar race.

It was the Vast Eagle tribe who left the Iron Hammer tribe, but these members were not the same ones he knew, the other beastmen seemed to be staying in the tribe for now.

But it made sense, the Vast Eagle tribe was known for speed and agility, it was normal for them to want to return to their tribe, they could be arranging something as well.

"Congratulations to you."

Ye Feng smiled coldly and followed after them: "You are so lucky today, you've won the grand prize!"

Chapter 123: Ye Feng's Assault

"Something is wrong."

The leader of the Vast Eagle tribe's group stopped moving and observed the surroundings carefully.

"What is it?"

A dwarf was beside him, he was the medium of communication sent by the Iron Hammer tribe, he was not strong: "Did you sense something?"

"Strange... the atmosphere is weird."

The leader of the Vast Eagle tribe's group said in a suspicious tone: "I sensed some killing intent earlier."

"I didn't feel anything..."

The dwarf shook his head and asked the surrounding people: "Did you guys feel anything earlier?"

After everyone said no to the question, the leader of the Vast Eagle tribe's group shook his head and looked in front.

"I might have just been too sensitive, forget it, let's continue moving."

A false alarm was totally possible, he might have been too nervous. But in this group, he was the only Bronze Knight, it was normal that he could sense the danger while the others could not.

Behind the tree, Ye Feng let out a sigh of relief, he was almost exposed.

"But the truth is, that Vast Eagle tribe leader is quite strong, he could sense that so-called killing intent that I unconsciously emitted."

Even though he was not afraid of fighting this group openly, it was better to stay concealed. Otherwise, with the alertness of the Vast Eagle tribe, even though he would not get injured, getting exposed would be too embarrassing.

...

"Come to speak of it, where is teacher?"

Blake had been busy earlier, at this time, he finally realized that Ye Feng was missing.

"I'm not sure either."

Claude who had just come from the Blacksmith Shop felt strange too: "I was going to ask if you know where teacher has gone."

He found that Ye Feng had gone missing earlier, but he thought that the latter had only gone back to the Blacksmith Shop. But after he went to the shop, he found that Ye Feng was not there.

In fact, there were no traces that he returned at all.

"Teacher is not someone who would go missing without a word, if he went out... Normally speaking, he would have informed us, why did he leave so silently this time?"

Blake shook his head in confusion.

He understood Ye Feng's strength, so he was not going to worry over his safety.

Even if Ye Feng was surrounded by experts, by relying on the mechanical armor and his own strength, it was possible to escape.

Ye Feng was not someone who enjoyed fighting, because he was vigilant, he would not make a blunder in most situations, after all, safety was the most important thing.

Furthermore, there was no point in worrying now, they did not know where Ye Feng was so how could they find him without any clues or leads?

"It is strange indeed, teacher went missing after the battle?"

Claude asked in confusion: "None of us noticed anything, did an emergency occur?"

After all, Ye Feng was very eye-catching on the battlefield due to his fireballs, after he vanished, Claude had noticed the chance.

"Doesn't look like it..."

Blake walked into the room and looked towards the outside of the city, he said after a momentary pause: "Do you think teacher went to find trouble with the Iron Hammer tribe and beastmen?"

He felt that this was quite possible, Ye Feng had been annoyed greatly during this period. After returning to Osborne City, he had to rush back to the City of Chaos, there were small scale battles happening all the time, anyone would be angry about this.

"He won't go that far, right?"

Claude's lips twitched as he said helplessly: "This might be the only possibility, will teacher get into any danger?"

After hearing Blake's words, he also felt that this was quite likely.

"No, you must believe in teacher."

Blake smiled, it was sufficient to know where Ye Feng went: "Even though teacher cannot beat so many people at once, he can definitely leave safely. Furthermore, no matter how angry he is, he won't fight so many people head on, he definitely has a plan."

"That will be good."

Claude rubbed his temples and walked towards the Blacksmith Shop.

He knew he could not be of help now, since that was his teacher's decision, he could only trust him.

...

"Void Slash!"

Once they were close enough, because Ye Feng did not want any unexpected situations to occur, he went to the center of the group without hesitation.

This hit was not aimed at the Vast Eagle tribe members but the dwarf beside them instead.

To prevent any accidents, Ye Feng decided to kill him first. On one hand, the Vast Eagle tribe had uncertain strength, it was hard to kill them all at once, on the other hand, he had to prevent the enemies from escaping.

As long as he killed the most important person first, even if they escaped or brought the corpse along with them, it would not be a problem.

The dwarf had a look of extreme fear but Ye Feng immediately killed him without waiting.

"Ye Feng?!"

The leader of the Vast Eagle tribe's group stared with wide eyes, he could not conceal the shock on his face.

The normal beastmen might not know about Ye Feng's appearance, but as a higher-up of the Vast Eagle tribe, as someone who was qualified to be in a meeting among the various tribes, he naturally knew the most important person of the City of Chaos.

The strongest Blacksmith of the City of Chaos, he was a Magician and also a Bronze Knight!

It was impossible to run, he had to risk his life and fight!

The leader of the Vast Eagle tribe's group showed a determined expression as he swung his blade at Ye Feng, shouting at the same time: "Everyone, attack!"

If those beastmen knew Ye Feng, they might run now. But after seeing him, they only felt that he was a fool that had a death wish.

"What a fool, you dare to attack us?"

"I think you are tired of living!"

"Let us teach him a lesson, let him know who he cannot trifle with!"

The surrounding beastmen raised their weapons and approached him sinisterly.

"You are the ones with a death wish."

Ye Feng snorted coldly, he blocked an attack of the leader of the Vast Eagle tribe's group before waving his hands as a large number of fireballs shot out.

Even those Advanced Knights were unable to defend themselves, they turned into piles of ashes while screaming pitifully.

"How dare you!"

The leader of the Vast Eagle tribe's group was anguished, he attacked in a maniacal state.

After all, everyone here was a member of his Vast Eagle tribe, the ones who came with him were naturally the people closer to him. Now that they died in front of him, he felt deeply hurt.

"Oh? You feel sad?"

Ye Feng raised his brow in disdain: "When you invaded us, why didn't you think of this?"

The result was as expected, the entire team was wiped out clean.

"Heh, I thought he was strong, but that was all it took."

After using a few more fireballs to burn the corpses completely, Ye Feng looked at the direction of the Iron Hammer tribe: "I thought he was a formidable person, but he merely had heightened senses."

While shaking his head, Ye Feng turned and went back to the Iron Hammer tribe.

He was not done yet.

Chapter 124: Leaving With Ease

But his second attempt did not go as smoothly.

Ye Feng had an ugly expression as he looked in front of him, there was a Bronze Knight.

A Bronze Knight who was fleeing in disarray.

Ye Feng had made some wrong estimations this time, he did not expect to see three Bronze Knights here, although they were weak, there was still one Bronze Knight who managed to escape while Ye Feng was distracted.

Initially, the Knight did not use his full strength to fight, the reason he concealed his strength was not to attack Ye Feng by surprise but to escape instead.

They all knew Ye Feng's strength, thus, after confirming that he escaped, the other two Bronze Knights tried to stall him.

"I need to chase him!"

Ye Feng only hesitated for a moment before chasing after him. He was not afraid of clashing with the Iron Hammer tribe now, so what if he managed to relay the information back to them?

The fight would just begin.

Since Ye Feng let him escape in order to kill the other two Bronze Knights, it was fine to let him run a bit further.

As Ye Feng got closer to that dwarf, he actually turned around to look at Ye Feng, possibly out of nervousness, causing his speed to fall greatly.

But eventually, Ye Feng did not manage to catch him as the Iron Hammer tribe was already in sight.

Ye Feng slowed down and recovered his stamina while walking towards the Iron Hammer tribe.

Since he could not catch the other party, it was likely to have an all-out fight now, recovering his strength was the best option now.

"Ye Feng is here!"

Before the dwarf got back to the tribe, he had already started shouting: "Quickly encircle him!"

Following his shout, many dwarves and beastmen came out. They first took a look at the Bronze Knight before looking towards Ye Feng who was outside of the tribe.

Many people had heard of Ye Feng, but this was the first time they were seeing him, physically that was.

"He dares to come to our base?"

An elder of the Iron Hammer tribe looked at Ye Feng who was standing and not moving, the latter was showing a warm smile now as he waved at the tribe.

Even though Ye Feng was confident, he was not going to let them encircle him, thus, he would not get too close to the Iron Hammer tribe.

As for the response of the Iron Hammer tribe, Ye Feng was confident that anyone would get angry if an enemy came right up to their doorsteps, not to mention that it was just one individual.

"He had been following us and found a chance to sneak attack, I am the only person who escaped from my group, I don't know how they are doing now."

Seeing that Ye Feng was not escaping, the dwarf felt less anxious and quickly started to explain.

"Is that so..."

The Iron Hammer tribe elder nodded and sighed: "It seems that the ones who left earlier had also been attacked by him, but we don't know if they managed to survive."

Since they had left in different groups, Ye Feng should not have been able to block every group.

If they were all wiped out, the losses would be too huge.

"No matter what, since he dared to come here so arrogantly, we need to teach him a lesson."

The new werewolf leader licked his lips and showed a fierce expression: "We have so many people on our side, will we be afraid of one person?"

Even though he had a poor relationship with the previous leader, they were fellow werewolves after all, he did not mind taking revenge for him.

He was weaker than the previous leader, so he could not beat Ye Feng, but now, he was not alone.

"That's right."

Someone laughed: "Most likely, he is staying outside to avoid getting attacked by everyone, since he is prepared, we will not do as he wishes."

"Yeah."

A dwarf elder nodded in agreement, he looked around and said: "How about it, everyone else stay behind, the Bronze Knights will go and attack him."

He had seen Ye Feng's fireballs before, it was too hard for non-Bronze Knights to stop them. Even though attacking him together had huge advantages, before they even got closer, they would be burnt to a crisp by Ye Feng.

The rest looked at each other and nodded before instructing the other subordinates.

"Stop talking among yourselves, if you want to die, come and fight me, otherwise, go home and sleep."

At this time, Ye Feng's mocking voice could be heard by everyone.

"Die!"

Some of the bad tempered beast tribes charged up immediately.

"Heh, come at me."

Ye Feng squinted and ran away without hesitation.

Since he lured them out, there was no need to stay. Because he was alone, he could not allow himself to get surrounded.

'Kiting' was the best option now.

The remaining people in the Iron Hammer tribe also followed him after looking at each other.

This time, even if they could not kill Ye Feng, they had to teach him an unforgettable lesson.

"You guys are a little slow."

Ye Feng had the help of the mechanical armor, even if he was not very fast on his own, right now, he was not slower than any other Bronze Knight, without the help of magic that was.

"Swiftness!"

A pale green light appeared on their bodies.

"You are not the only magic user here."

A dwarf smiled coldly and charged towards Ye Feng with a burst of speed.

But he was faced with a fireball that was prepared for him.

"Take my greater fireball skill!"

A fireball landed on the dwarf's face directly, Ye Feng smiled coldly: "Don't you know, antagonists often lose because they talk too much."

This hit caused the dwarf to lose all his combat strength, but that was all, he did not die yet.

if the two of them were fighting alone, Ye Feng would be able to kill him. But with so many people, once he stopped moving, he would not be able to escape.

Ye Feng was specialized in such battles with high speed movement, although his fireballs did not have homing abilities, they could be aimed and steered to some extent.

If it were a close ranged battle, Ye Feng would not be afraid either, he was a peak Bronze Knight after all, even though he was not skilled at close combat, he was not afraid of any individual.

Thus, the result was clear.

"Scoundrel!"

The werewolf leader looked at dwarf elders who had fallen on the ground and showed an ugly expression: "You are all useless!"

Only four were still chasing Ye Feng, everyone else was either heavily injured or incapacitated, they could not pursue him anymore.

But thankfully, although it looked bad, only one died.

"Retreat."

They looked at each other and understood what to do, after giving Ye Feng a final attack, they stopped chasing and turned around to leave together.

Ye Feng watched them leave as he stopped as well. The truth was, if this continued, his stamina would be depleted, it was too tiring to fight against so many people alone.

But no matter what, his goal was achieved.

Ye Feng rested for a while on the spot before turning and leaving.

Chapter 125: Bringing Back Information

Ye Feng did not go back to the Iron Hammer tribe, after confirming that his enemies had retreated, he returned to the City of Chaos.

"Teacher, you are finally back."

Blake saw Ye Feng and immediately went to greet him, smiling bitterly: "You didn't tell us before leaving, if not for our belief in your strength, we would have gone to look for you."

Back then, he had panicked with Claude, after all, it was quite scary to see someone disappear without any notice.

"Yeah... my bad."

Ye Feng scratched his head while feeling a little embarrassed: "I was too angry then, seeing that you were busy, I left without saying anything."

The truth was, he had not noticed what Blake and Claude were doing, he had no intention to tell them either as he left without second thought.

He had wanted to settle it quickly and return before they noticed, but to think that he would spend so much time there.

He had not expected that Claude found out he was missing so quickly.

"You need to tell us beforehand no matter what."

Claude sighed helplessly, he got to the next topic: "Teacher, where did you go, did you go to find trouble with the beastmen?"

This was their previous conjecture, looking at Ye Feng, it was quite likely that they were right.

"Yes, I made a trip to the Iron Hammer tribe by following them."

Ye Feng smiled, he seemed to be in a good mood.

"Teacher, looking at your joyful expression, did you gain a lot?"

Blake looked at Ye Feng and asked curiously: "Did you kill many enemies?"

Most of the time, Ye Feng was a stable person, he would not show such an expression.

"Not much."

Ye Feng chuckled and said smugly: "Killed only around ten Bronze Knight."

But the shock that he expected to see did not appear.

"Oh..."

Blake and Claude said at the same time, there was no surprise in their eyes, they seemed to be completely unmoved.

But Ye Feng cared, he was in a good mood now so he wanted to toy around.

"Hey, your reaction is too boring, why don't you praise me?"

Ye Feng frowned and spoke like he was unhappy about their reaction.

The truth was, if he had to kill them one by one, it was not hard to kill ten, but he had gone into the enemy's base and fought them together, it was not simple at all!

"Oh... oh my goodness, teacher, you are too amazing!"

Blake was first stunned before he started to scream: "No way, how did you do it!"

"Alright, alright, you may as well not praise me."

Ye Feng held his head and waved his hand.

"Alright, teacher, tell me what are your other gains."

Claude interrupted their banter.

The truth was, both Blake and him were just surprised that Ye Feng went missing, after knowing that he was at the Iron Hammer tribe, they no longer felt any curiosity.

After all, Ye Feng was a man of miracles, they knew about his true strength as well. Even if he said that he had wiped out the Iron Hammer tribe, they would not be too surprised, at most, they would sigh at his amazing strength.

They would also ask Ye Feng what method he used.

"Alright!"

Ye Feng said in a tired manner: "Their plan is..."

...

"Teacher, you got the information before you attacked them?"

Blake rubbed his chin and said: "Do you think they will suspect that teacher has already learned of this?"

This was quite likely, since Ye Feng was able to attack them sneakily, it was possible that he had entered the tribe to secretly hear their plans.

"This is possible indeed."

Ye Feng thought about it and said: "They should know that their defense is not strong, since I could have entered easily, in their eyes, I am strong enough to lurk there and listen to their discussion."

Truthfully, in that situation, as long as it was a considerably powerful Bronze Knight, anyone could have sneaked in.

"In that case, we need to guard against their change of plan."

Blake continued talking: "But there is no issue with being careful, increasing our defense is necessary."

Appropriately raising their defenses was not a problem, it would not expend their energy.

"Right."

Claude nodded in agreement: "I will go inform them to stay guard now, at least for these few days."

"I'll let you two handle this, I am going to their tribe again."

Ye Feng patted his disciples' shoulders happily: "I will try and bring back more information."

He had just attacked them, it was possible that the Iron Hammer tribe felt he would not attack again. Even though it was unlikely, what if they really did not raise their defense?

It would be a huge bonus!

"Teacher, are you still going there?"

Blake did not agree with it: "They will definitely raise their defense now, you won't be able to listen to their conversation so easily. In fact, they might have gathered already, it will be hard to attack them separately. Even if there is a chance to attack, you won't be able to kill many."

"Don't worry, I have always been vigilant."

Ye Feng did not mind it: "If they want to gather their forces, they will need time. This is enough for me to do my thing."

He would not let himself get into danger.

"Sigh... teacher, you have the final say."

Blake felt a headache as he shook his head and said: "Mind your safety, our City of Chaos is not weaker than we, we won't lose."

The truth was, in terms of strength, the dwarf and beastman alliance was stronger, they had more members and elites.

But the City of Chaos had its own advantage, there were the mechanical beasts and equipment made by Ye Feng, his disciples, and the Yoruk tribe. Because they were defending, it was easier as well.

Furthermore, the alliance was too chaotic and scattered, there were many different tribes, although they could be led, in terms of compliance and cooperation, they were far inferior.

If the two sides had to fight, with the City of Chaos staying defensive, they simply could not be taken down.

Of course, this was in the absence of accidents.

"Alright, don't worry, you just need to handle the matters within the City of Chaos."

Ye Feng waved his hand and turned to leave: "I will teach them a good lesson."

"Sigh..."

Blake and Claude looked at each other with a helpless gaze.

What did he mean by 'just handle the matters', they were clearly the ones with more work, right?

Forget it, this was their teacher... Furthermore, Ye Feng was going alone to the enemy's base, it was a dangerous action after all.

Chapter 126: Infiltrating Again

After reaching near the Iron Hammer tribe, Ye Feng started to observe it.

This time, their defense was much tighter than before.

Other than four dwarves standing guard at the entrance, there were also many beastmen and dwarves patrolling the vicinity, there was no loophole that could be found.

Of course, if someone was specialized in infiltration, they could enter, but Ye Feng was not.

"But... there are many unfamiliar dwarves that I see."

Ye Feng squinted and observed the patrolling dwarves: "There are much more dwarves as well."

If he only felt that a few dwarves were unfamiliar to him, then that was normal. After all, the Iron Hammer tribe was his enemy, he should have seen at least most of their dwarves right?

But if there were too many unknown ones, it would be too fishy. In terms of beastmen, Ye Feng could not differentiate their appearance well, but the dwarves were different. Among the patrolling groups, more than half the dwarves were foreign to him.

Ye Feng thought for a while and decided to get closer.

Of course, he could not enter the tribe at this time, he would definitely be found out. But he could stay outside to listen, because the tribe was not a military base, these patrolling dwarves were not well trained.

As long as they completed their mission, it did not matter to them if they took a break during the patrol or stopped to chat.

These members patrolling knew each other, they would not keep to themselves, almost all the groups were having conversations.

"I heard the Iron Hammer tribe was attacked by Ye Feng earlier?"

A dwarf asked curiously: "They didn't manage to kill Ye Feng?"

After hearing this, Ye Feng felt a little proud as a smile appeared on his face.

This dwarf was shaming the Iron Hammer tribe, his voice was not soft either.

He was currently at the Iron Hammer tribe, to think that he would speak ill of them at their territory.

Ye Feng shook his head, he knew where this group of dwarves came from now.

"They were too weak, even with the beastmen's help, they could not kill that Ye Feng. If it were our Heavenly Forging tribe, we would have dealt with him already."

They were so proud and haughty, it was obviously the Heavenly Forging tribe.

"Heh, isn't that why they asked us for help? Earlier, the Iron Hammer tribe contacted the beastmen and felt that they could resolve the issue of the City of Chaos, but they ended up getting beaten."

"In my opinion, if they had asked us for help earlier, the City of Chaos would have been our long ago."

"Well, they have suffered greatly now, so many dwarves and beastmen died. If they had fought with their full strength from the start, they would not have lost so many people."

When speaking about the Iron Hammer tribe, disdain was contained in their tone, in their opinion, the City of Chaos was nothing much.

Other than that Ye Feng who was quite good at forging, everyone else was trash.

It was only because the Heavenly Forging tribe had no interest in attacking others, otherwise, they would have been taken down long ago.

Ye Feng listened and squinted uncontrollably, he had made the right decision to come here, this information was quite useful.

According to their words, it seemed like all the dwarf tribes had gathered here, although this could not be their full force, it was a certainty that they were working together.

He decided to leave after waiting for a bit to see if there was any more information, instead of attacking them, he had to return immediately to tell Blake and the rest.

If the other party changed their plan because he showed up, it would become troublesome.

It was a pity that this was all Ye Feng heard.

After saying this, the group went back to talking about random things, they started bragging to each other.

Patience... Patience... Ye Feng breathed out lightly and left the place quietly, he decided to find another place and listen in to the others.

It was a pity that information could not be obtained so easily, even after Ye Feng changed several locations, he only heard some useful information after two hours.

"What do you think the elders are discussing inside?"

"Who knows, they must be talking about how to take down the City of Chaos. That Ye Feng is too arrogant, we must get rid of him now."

"I'm grateful for your attention.." Ye Feng thought to himself internally as he continued to listen.

"I have some information here, it seems that the elders are planning to attack forcefully to take down the City of Chaos!"

"Oh, how so?"

"Originally, the elders wanted to wait for some time and expend the City of Chaos' strength, but after Ye Feng appeared, they decided to become more serious. Ye Feng is too strong, if this goes on, we may become the ones who are weakened."

"I thought Ye Feng is only a Blacksmith? He has so much combat strength?"

After hearing this, Ye Feng turned around to leave, even though they were going to praise his strength now, he was not so shameless as to continue listening, it was too embarrassing.

And he had already gotten enough information, he had to return to tell the City of Chaos now.

He did not expect that the Iron Hammer tribe was so mentally weak, after so few people died, they had already called for reinforcements, and many of them at that.

...

"The dwarf tribes are going to attack together? A cooperation between many tribes?"

The higher-ups of the City of Chaos sat together, Ye Feng and his disciples were among them.

"Indeed, I heard them talk, each of the dwarf tribes has already sent members to gather in the Iron Hammer tribe."

Ye Feng nodded seriously and continued speaking: "They had allied long ago, earlier, these six tribes joined hands to attack the Yoruk tribe."

He had thought that they would be progressive in their attack, but to think that they were going to gather everyone to attack now.

Honestly, if Ye Feng had not gone there to spy on them, he would not have expected this and would have been caught unguarded.

"Sir Ye Feng's information is believable... There is nothing wrong with staying vigilant, we will stop the rebuilding and prepare ourselves for a battle!"

Everyone had the same consensus, it was not an issue to delay the rebuilding, but if the City of Chaos was attacked while they were busy, it would be a huge issue, they could not afford to lose the City of Chaos!

After the meeting ended, Ye Feng and his disciples returned to the Blacksmith Shop, they got to work.

"Speaking of which, I have not forged for some time."

Ye Feng waved his hammer and said casually: "I have been moving around for too long, my skills are starting to get rusty."

He had not rested at all due to these consecutive battles, he had to rush all over the place. Even though he forged during this period, they were all for the sake of these battles.

He had not been free at all during this period.

Chapter 127: Preparation For War

"You know it too."

Claude shook his head helplessly, he looked at the metal chunk in his hand and said distractedly: "During this period, the Iron Hammer tribe has caused too many problems, we have no time to forge at all. At most, we could only make a few pieces of equipment."

If he did not hand the matters of the Divine Forging tribe to the elders, he would have been even more busy, he would not even have time to forge anything.

He was not like Ye Feng who could multitask, or rather, he could but that would be prone to accidents.

At most, he could only talk a little during the forging session.

"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for forging a stage four middle-grade Flaming Hammer, you have obtained 3000 fire elemental points."

Ye Feng sighed lightly and placed the weapon aside: "I've already made the weapons that they need, now is the most important part, we will need a lot of mechanical armors and mechanical beasts in this battle."

They had a lot of stored equipment here, they could even go to buy them. But the mechanical armors and beasts were much harder to get.

He had to forge them individually!

"Yeah!"

Claude nodded and continued to seriously forge the mechanical armors.

With his current strength, forging mechanical armors was not a problem, the only issue was that he was much slower than Ye Feng, and because it had too many steps, he had to expend a lot of energy as well.

In this situation, looking at the complexity of the mechanical armor and beast, in just a few days, Ye Feng and Claude could not many more than just a few of them.

Thankfully, they were not the only two Blacksmiths.

The Yoruk tribe and Divine Forging tribe helped out, using these few days, they would be able to create ten to twenty of them.

Three days passed quickly, during this time, the City of Chaos was not attacked. The higher-ups instructed the people to rebuild the city on the surface while preparing for the impending battle in secret.

Although they seemed normal, everyone was focused and prepared for battle at any time.

The dwarf and beastman alliance arrived at around the time that Ye Feng expected.

After three days, they attacked without warning.

Of course, even though this was a surprise attack, because the City of Chaos was prepared for battle all along, they were ready for it.

"Everyone, let's go!"

A dwarf who had just become a Bronze Knight wore his mechanical armor and let out the mechanical beast, charging out together with everyone.

"Hmph, we have more people than you!" The dwarf had a ruthless expression, even though they were all dwarves, he did not hold back.

He was a member of the Yoruk tribe, his own younger brother had died when the Yoruk tribe was attacked.

Thus, even if the enemy was a dwarf, he did not hold back.

This time, the Yoruk tribe brought everything here, nearly a hundred mechanical beasts were distributed all over the place, they attacked the alliance army harshly.

They could not hold back now. Last time, the Yoruk tribe was attacked because of greed, but no matter what, they would not have exterminated the Yoruk tribe then. But now... it was a life-and-death battle!

There could only be two outcomes, either the alliance gets defeated, with the dwarves wiped out and the beastmen escaping, or the City of Chaos gets destroyed and taken over by them.

But the beastmen had quite a good deal, even if they lose and suffer losses, they would not be badly affected.

If they won, they would get a lot of resources from the City of Chaos, they might even be able to take advantage of the weakened dwarf tribes.

"Explosive fireball!"

Ye Feng's attack was launched first, after all, there was no attack that had a longer range than his spell, before the enemy got close, he could kill as many as he hit.

He did not go after the Bronze Knights with stronger defense, he focused on Advanced Knights. He could instantly kill anyone who was under Bronze Knight level, so he decided to kill the strongest ones possible.

"Heh, I have to say, us Magicians have an easy life."

A Three Star Magician came to Ye Feng and chuckled: "As long as we are not sneak attacked, as long as they don't get close, we are completely safe, I like this feeling where they can't hit me and can only endure my attacks."

This Magician's father was a Bronze Knight, his mother was also a Magician, thus, he had always been protected and rarely in dangerous situations. Although he was a mercenary, it was only for fun for a few times.

"Your words are very provocative."

Ye Feng shook his head and laughed: "You know not to get sneak attacked but you are here joking with me. Aren't you scared?"

"Sir, you are here."

That person did not mind the situation, he laughed: "I think they won't be as stupid as to attack you, even if they approach us, you can easily kill them."

They knew about Ye Feng's strength, undeniably, in this battle, Ye Feng was the strongest person.

"You know how to slack off."

Ye Feng casted a glance at this person who was quite witty, he said without getting angry: "But I do hope that they come to attack me now."

...

Different from Ye Feng's relaxed situation, Blake and Claude who fought at the front lines felt immense pressure.

Blake really did not expect so many interesting things to happen to him after becoming Ye Feng's disciple for such a short period of time.

Getting kidnapped, his arm chopped off, and several battles... He did not expect that he would experience so many things in these few months.

But his gains were huge, not including the mechanical arm since it could never compare to his original arm no matter what.

After all these events, his combat strength had risen greatly, he was confident of contesting for the first position if he returned to the Knight's Academy, and that was without using the mechanical armor.

If weapons were restricted, he might not win, but if his own weapon was allowed to be used, taking first place was without question.

After becoming a Bronze Knight, he would not be afraid of anyone in terms of strength level, and in terms of combat experience, who could surpass him who had gone through so many bloody fights?

Even if they fought against mutated beasts for countless times, it could not match such a huge fight.

It was a completely different experience.

Blake held the Lightning Refinement Sword and breathed out deeply, he then squinted his eyes and looked towards the left.

Bam!

The sound of weapons colliding could be heard as Blake's arm turned numb, the dwarf who attacked him took several steps back.

This dwarf's weapon was decent, as an Advanced Knight who was fighting against Blake head on, his weapon actually did not break.

Was he trying to use this weapon to fight against a stronger opponent?

Chapter 128: Subjugation Plan

Blake smiled coldly and said in disdain: "You are quite daring, you want to fight me alone?"

Even though he said that, he looked at the surroundings vigilantly to prevent himself from getting attacked unexpectedly.

Of course, the City of Chaos was behind him, he did not have to be alert against that direction.

This was the chaotic battlefield, it was not an arena, he had to stay alert at all times.

He remembered that in the previous battle, the werewolf leader was killed by Ye Feng and the female Bronze Knight who sneak attacked.

That werewolf leader was clearly mentally ill, he actually wanted to fight Ye Feng alone in the battlefield, Blake did not want to follow in his footsteps.

After a short consideration, Blake took several steps forward without wasting time, he attacked the dwarf.

Alertness was normal, but this was the battlefield, he could not hesitate and do nothing, he had the advantage in strength so he could not back off either.

Seeing that Blake was approaching, the dwarf did not feel scared, he took several steps forward and slashed his blade at the Lightning Refinement Sword.

"He does not know about my situation after all."

Blake smiled to himself internally, he changed his stab to a slash as he targeted the enemy's blade.

But this was normal, he was not as famous as Ye Feng who was well known by all dwarves.

But this was a good thing for Blake.

As what Blake expected, after he exerted force, even though the huge blade was not broken into two by the Lightning Refinement Sword, a visible crack appeared and it was forced aside.

Blake saw shock in the eyes of the enemy, using this chance, he slashed forward without hesitation.

After a soft sound, the dwarf fell to the ground without even making a sound.

"Fool."

He shot a glance at this corpse before moving away to help the other members of the City of Chaos.

He originally thought that someone would come to help the dwarf, after all, nobody would be as silly as to challenge a stronger enemy without any advantage.

To try and challenge a stronger enemy, one either needed to have a trump card, special technique, or strong treasures or equipment.

But the dwarf had none of these.

Even the weapon was only stage four inferior grade, although it was decent, it could not be relied on as a trump card.

But there were fools everywhere, Blake did not have time to think about this, he continued to fight in the battlefield.

Normally speaking, at this time, the battle should become less intense as more people die, they would eventually decide a victor.

But this time was different, the situation soon took a turn, it was a change that could affect victory or defeat.

"Reinforcements have arrived!"

A group of people charged out from behind the dwarf alliance and went straight into them, ruining their formation and also attacking them intensely.

They seem to have arrived long ago, they were only waiting for a chance to enter the battlefield.

Seeing this, Ye Feng showed a smug smile on his face.

They were not the only ones who made an alliance, as a Blacksmith, how could Ye Feng not find people to help him?

These people who came to help were of various backgrounds, there were some from Aden City, Osborne City, and even mercenaries.

During this period of time, Ye Feng had contacted some of them, while the rest came to him instead.

This was the benefit of knowing many people.

Ye Feng even saw some familiar faces among them.

The Blazing Flame Mercenary Corps stayed united as one, although they were not strong individually, in this chaotic battlefield, their cooperation allowed them to fight evenly with stronger experts.

The battle was over.

Ye Feng smiled to himself as he saw dwarves and beastmen who fell to the ground. In terms of numbers and combat strength, they had the complete advantage.

The reinforcements came at the perfect timing, now, the enemies lost the ability to retaliate or fight back.

...

As Ye Feng predicted, in just half an hour, the battle ended.

Now, it was time to deal with those dwarf tribes, it was a pity that those beastmen were too varied and their tribes were located far away, he could not find trouble with them.

Ye Feng looked as the rest cleaned up the battlefield, he left first.

"Claude, you should go and subdue the Iron Hammer tribe."

Blake looked at Claude and smiled: "You are a dwarf, you are the only one who can do this. They will not submit to us humans."

"Oh... I get it."

Claude scratched his head and said in a troubled tone: "I have trouble leading one Divine Forging tribe, if I had to lead another six tribes... even if there is the Yoruk tribe, the burden is still too great."

"Don't worry, the people in the City of Chaos can help."

At this time, Ye Feng came over and said in a serious tone: "If you want to subdue these tribes, you will need the help of the City of Chaos. With just your two tribes, even if you slowly take over one tribe at a time, it will still take too much effort, and it is prone to accidents."

"Since you can't do that, you have to work together. In any case, this is the City of Chaos' battle, we cannot take the gains, which are the dwarf tribes, of this battle by ourselves."

Seeing that Claude was silent, Blake consoled him: "Don't worry, the City of Chaos will not enslave them, we care about your feelings."

"We can create an alliance."

Ye Feng continued to speak: "With the Divine Forging tribe and Yoruk tribe as the lead, the entire dwarf tribes will be united and combined with the City of Chaos."

"When subduing those tribes, we cannot bring in the City of Chaos. But afterwards, we can create a rule and gather these tribes to be stationed in the City of Chaos. After we stabilize them, we can consider letting them join and also expand the city."

"This is a good idea indeed."

Blake's eyes lit up, he clapped: "As expected of you, teacher, this plan is beneficial to both sides, it should not have any issues."

"This is only a general suggestion, we will have a meeting later to discuss this. I'm sure everyone can come up with a concrete plan."

Ye Feng smiled and patted Claude who was silent and lowering his head, he said: "Don't worry, they are dwarves after all, since they are very useful resources, the City of Chaos will not do anything to them."

"Yeah."

Claude was thinking about Ye Feng's words earlier, after considering it, he no longer felt worried, he smiled: "Then I will go find them now, we should decide this matter as soon as possible."

Saying that, he turned around to leave the place.

Ye Feng and Blake looked at each other helplessly, the latter smiled: "The battle just ended, everyone is still busy, who will have the time to talk to him?"

Ye Feng shrugged and did not speak.
