Ding Fan was very happy to see Herr Ningshuang, but he asked very seriously, "Ningshuang, can your Seduction Technique be cultivated? Can it become stronger?"
Herr Ningshuang could now mesmerize a Sixth Level expert in the Divine Realm. If we could further charm a Seventh Level expert, then Herr Ningshuang alone could conquer all the Barbarian Lands without needing the Meng Family's experts to step in.
"Yes!"
Herr Ningshuang replied solemnly, "This Seduction Technique has four realms. The first tier is called Reversal, the second tier is called Enchantment, the third tier is called Demon Subjugation, and the fourth tier is called Celestial Seduction. I am currently at the First Level of the realm."
"Hmm..."
Ding Fan was secretly amazed. The Divine Secret Technique was indeed very powerful. You could tell from the name that it was extremely strong. Herr Ningshuang was still at the First Stage of cultivation. If she truly reached the Second Stage, Third Stage, and Fourth Stage, she might indeed intimidate gods and demons alike.
"So powerful!"
Ding Fan gave a thumbs up. Herr Ningshuang blushed slightly from the praise. Ding Fan suddenly stood up and walked over to the table, saying, "Don't you have tea here? I'm thirsty."
Seeing Ding Fan sitting by the table, Herr Ningshuang got up to pour him some tea, but Ding Fan suddenly pulled her waist with a big hand and sat her on his lap.
Herr Ningshuang said bashfully and angrily, "What are you doing? Let go of me, you indecent rascal!"
"Shh"
Ding Fan shushed softly, saying in a low voice, "Don't shout. Otherwise, if the servants and Family Head Ye hear, it won't be good."
Herr Ningshuang didn't dare to shout at once. She tried to break free, but Ding Fan's arm was around her waist, making her cross her arms over her chest, her face a bright red, seemingly hesitating between rejection and yielding, causing a flame in Ding Fan's abdomen to surge.
That day, the warmth between the two was interrupted by Herr Rufeng. Since Herr Rufeng was not present this time, Ding Fan naturally wouldn't be polite anymore. He gently touched Herr Ningshuang's thigh with his other hand, then rubbed her plump buttocks.
"Ah!"
Suddenly a scream came from outside, and someone rushed in, causing Herr Ningshuang to jump up like an arrow had been shot.
Using Herr Rufeng's unexpected return to interrupt the warmth between Ding Fan and Herr Ningshuang again, Herr Rufeng exclaimed, "Sister, I felt... someone touched my buttocks—oh, Ding Fan? Why are you here?"
Herr Rufeng's sudden return interrupted Ding Fan and Herr Ningshuang's intimacy once more.
Seeing the flush on Herr Rufeng's face, Ding Fan stood up a bit guiltily, then his expression turned stern as he said, "Rufeng, you're not a child anymore. Stop thinking about playing all day. You should learn from your sister and train well. Your ancestor is gone, and you bear the responsibility of restoring your family's honor. Your aunt and Herr Qianjun are watching you. Don't let them down..."
After saying this, Ding Fan left with a heavy heart. Having been reprimanded, Herr Rufeng blushed with shame, which made her momentarily forget the strange feeling from her buttocks earlier. After Ding Fan left, she said shamefully, "Ding Fan is right. From today on, I will start training earnestly. Sister, I won't play anymore."
Herr Ningshuang wanted to laugh but didn't dare to make a sound, so she agreed, "Ding Fan is right, Rufeng, you really should focus your mind."
Herr Rufeng nodded slightly, finally recalling what had happened. She opened her eyes wide with fear, "Sister, I felt someone touch my buttocks earlier. Could it be the Copper Fiend Tribe attacking in secret? No way, it's too dangerous here. Should we go back to Dream Love City?"
Herr Ningshuang chuckled internally yet could only comfort Herr Rufeng with a few words. Although she feared Ding Fan might act unruly, she still harbored some hope since Ding Fan had just confessed to her. How could she bear to leave? A girl's feelings couldn't easily let go of Ding Fan in her heart.
In the following period, Herr Rufeng surprisingly became quite earnest, choosing to go into seclusion to train. Herr Ningshuang also hesitated to go out, but when Ding Fan went into the Tornado to train, she stood on the deck, watching him with some concern.
When Ding Fan returned, Herr Ningshuang promptly went back to her house to train. She trained her True Yuan and Soul Space while occasionally practicing her Seduction Technique, living a fulfilling life.
The Northern Wastelands grew increasingly peaceful.
Now that the Aotian Empire had just been established, Zhong Zhiyong was leading armies around to massacre those who would not submit, Madam Yan's methods were endless, and the secret guards of the Crimson Flame secretly monitored the dynamics of the entire empire.
No one dared defy, no one dared act rashly.
The people of the Northern Wastelands gradually forgot about the Divine Heaven Country, the Divine Country, the Shenwu Country, and the Thousand Gods Settlement. They wholeheartedly became citizens of the Aotian Empire. Madam Yan sent people everywhere to promote Ding Fan's achievements, making him a young hero and legendary figure. Countless boys and girls in the Northern Wastelands regarded Ding Fan as an idol and a god, and naturally, the Northern Wastelands became increasingly stable.
However, stability is only surface-level, and many families still harbor hidden anger but dare not express it openly.
Why?
It's all because of interests. After the unification of the Northern Wastelands, Ding Fan took thirty percent of all the profits within the Northern Wastelands, and each of the Herr Family, Zhong Family, and Zhao Family took ten percent. The remaining forty percent had to be shared among all the forces in the Northern Wastelands.
Chi Zhigang and the other Level Five families are included in this. There are too many forces above the Third Stage in the Northern Wastelands, not to mention the previous four kingdoms; just within the Tianmu Sea, there are over a hundred families above the Third Stage.
Ding Fan collected all the Spirit Mountains and mineral veins belonging to the empire, giving only a small amount of resources to these families and forces. What do these families rely on for sustenance? How do they train the children in their families? What do they use to expand their influence?
Of course, these families do not dare to speak out. The environment of the Northern Wastelands is so ruthless that only the strong can prevail. These families and forces can only curse a bit in secret to vent their frustrations. The Crimson Flame Secret Guards seize any opportunity, and even cursing in secret has to be done carefully.
Ding Fan had no choice but to act this way!
He returned to the Northern Wastelands to search for resources. The empire was just established, and he needed a large amount of Spiritual Materials and Black Obsidian to ensure his needs, to have Spiritual Materials for cultivating his realm, and to prioritize securing his own position. Only then could he manage the interests of the other forces in the Northern Wastelands; otherwise, what was the point of unifying the Northern Wastelands?
There are too many families above the Third Stage, and Ding Fan could not ensure that everyone had food to eat. The establishment of an empire itself signifies the start of many new powers taking over, reshuffling the dynamics of the Northern Wastelands. If he considered everyone's interests, then why would he be the Great Emperor of the Aotian Empire?
Time silently passed, over two months went by.
Ding Fan continued to train in the Demon Sea, while Herr Ningshuang and Herr Rufeng were also in seclusion training. Zhong Zhiyong was busy integrating the industries of all the forces, and Madam Yan was also tidying up the internal affairs of the entire empire, while the Crimson Flame Secret Guards were extremely busy.
The Crimson Flame came to see Ding Fan, and Ding Fan gave him a task to find someone to go to the Frostbite Cliff.
The Frostbite Cliff is the first absolute place in the Northern Wastelands, and even a Seventh Level master of the Divine Realm might not be able to come out once they enter. Ding Fan knew that Ding Aohuang had indeed gone in but never came out again, showcasing the danger inside.
Even knowing that those who went down might perish, Ding Fan wanted to try for peace of mind. Now he was the Great Emperor of the Northern Wastelands, his subordinates were countless, and besides, he didn't need to personally act. There were still many prisoners in the prison, sending them down didn't trouble Ding Fan much.
The Crimson Flame found many death row prisoners with different powers; some had mysterious skills, and there were even some special races, like Tigertooth Apes and Copper Fiend Tribesmen.
The Crimson Flame made a promise to everyone that if they could go down and return, their crimes would be pardoned, and they would regain freedom. Naturally, these prisoners were very excited; this was better than waiting to die in prison, at least it gave them hope.
Previously, an Old Beast Emperor had died in the Frostbite Cliff, so it is said that there might now be a new Beast Emperor inside. The Crimson Flame ordered someone to go down and take a look, and they found that there was indeed a Beast Emperor there.
But this was not a problem; it was just a Beast Emperor that could easily be lured away. Although the Beast Emperor's power can compare to a human Seventh Level expert of the Divine Realm, in the end, it's just a spiritual beast, not very smart, and easily distracted as long as the arrangement is proper, not too many people would have to die.
Ding Fan repeatedly told them that this matter must be kept confidential. He instructed the Crimson Flame to claim that he wanted a piece of Spiritual Material from within the Frostbite Cliff. He did not tell the Crimson Flame about the possibility of Ding Aohuang being inside the Frostbite Cliff, only told him to investigate and report any findings immediately.
The Crimson Flame was rather taciturn and didn't like to ask questions. Whatever Ding Fan told him to do, he did. Sending some death row prisoners down the Frostbite Cliff wasn't hard; it just required some time and manpower.
...
"Ha!"
In the sky above the Demon Sea, a Tornado roared, like an angry dragon howling from the sea. Today, there was no thunderstorm, the wind was stronger, and a figure in the Tornado tumbled, countless times attempting to break free, only to be drawn back in.
"Why can't I comprehend this?"
His whole body ached with tearing pain in his muscles and bones, but Ding Fan paid no extra attention. He had been practicing in the Tornado for over two months, and he was already used to it.
He had a strong feeling inside, as if there was a layer of paper he couldn't pierce through, unable to comprehend the Heaven Earth True Insight within the Tornado.
This feeling was quite uncomfortable, causing Ding Fan to feel oppressed, enduring countless instances of tearing agony, wasting over two months without a bit of progress. This made Ding Fan doubt himself; he wondered whether he could ever grasp this True Insight, or was his direction for understanding mistaken?
