It's difficult for us to witness Progress Constitution.
The man guarding the pine incense earlier referred to Liu when he spoke—indicating the intention to purchase disciples from the Liangtai Company's Star Three First League. They were stationed in an eye-catching location, immediately recognizable as Yangchuan District and spotted at first glance.
However, Yang Chuan and Su Dalian's crew, who had earlier advanced in front, were suddenly intercepted by a crowd.
This group was comprised of formidable individuals, some as strong as Alizi or even late-stage powerhouses in the provincial capital—and one of them stood steadfastly in front of the pine incense man!
When the man encountered Yang Chuan and his companion, he immediately said to the Heavenly Horse, "Their strength clearly stands out from the rest, especially this man—it's as evident as broad daylight." Pointing at them, he exclaimed, "Brother Wu, it's them!"
The man present that day didn't even hesitate upon hearing these words; with a wave of his hand, the group surrounded both Yang Chuan and Jishan.
Understand this: such prominence was not without reason. The position here represented a pinnacle, unshaken and absolute!
Seeing this scene unfold, many bystanders gathered, eager to see what would transpire.
When Yang Chuan and Chi Lian Fairy found themselves surrounded, their natural response was to stop in their tracks, standing calmly beside Brother Wu.
"Must one kneel and admit fault just to pass through this Dead City?"
Upon hearing these words, Yang Chuan immediately furrowed his brows.
Although the tone wasn't that of an elder master, what had been said carried a certain truth.
Yang Chuan, though a mere refining machine practitioner, carried the title of Master Artisan effortlessly, his skills distinguished by not even the slightest discrepancy!
For this, Yang Chuan recalled with utmost clarity the arduous journey he undertook to achieve mastery back in the day.
That year, striving to overcome the gaps between himself and Ma Xun's mastery of refining machines, he endured countless hardships until he finally attained the level of a teacher.
Rong Mazon's power and resources were truly formidable. To that elder master, surpassing this final hurdle would have been a monumental challenge!
Furthermore, this progress constitution merely represented a materials hall built by the disciple of an experienced master. For Yang Chuan, it was perhaps just a stroke of fortune from Fang Yuan!
Most importantly, since stepping foot on Ma Island, Yang Chuan had never once faced coercion!
Confronted by powerful foes, even the smallest ants dare to show resilience!
Yang Chuan spoke calmly, "Step aside, or bear the consequences!"
Hearing this, the face of the man from Osaka immediately turned dark!
He represented one of the authorities of the Progress Constitution and was aligned with the chief disciple known as Fang Yuan. Coming to this prosperous city felt like bringing a faction of his family—it was always advantageous to him.
But now, could an outsider like Yang Chuan truly dare speak to him in this manner?
Let alone in front of so many people—how could he possibly maintain his dignity?
"Outrageous!"
Brother Wu erupted with fury. "How audacious of you! If you remain stubborn and refuse to repent, don't blame me for taking matters into my own hands. Remove them now!"
With a single wave of his official hat, the Earthhorse-level experts beside him stepped forward with menacing glares, clearly intent on laying hands on Yang Chuan and his companion.
"Ignorant fools!"
Watching this play out, Yang Chuan slowly closed his eyes, turning to Chi Fairy and calmly saying, "John dislikes bloodshed."
Bloodshed—disliked?
Standing beside Yang Chuan, Chi Yanzi, who had been holding back her anger, initially seemed puzzled but then revealed a cruel smile.
Disliking bloodshed meant forbidding her from killing outright!
However, this statement didn't restrict her from employing other methods—Yang Chuan's subtlety perfectly aligned with her intent.
Understanding this, Chi Fairy smiled playfully, saying, "Your orders, my lord."
The dignified fairy withdrew her sleeve, stepping forward toward Brother Wu.
Yang Chuan held his ground, unmoving, yet the woman beside him compelled action—her commanding air silencing the onlookers.
In the predator-prey system of Ma Realm, the wit and survival instinct of women like those from China's Nanjing were deeply ingrained.
Though women didn't often kill needlessly, some sought martial strength, refining techniques from other warriors, and rarely hesitated to put their survival first.
In such a setting, jokes about a woman's worth were common—mocking their resolve before any real battle.
A burly and malicious man grinned mockingly, "Why hasn't that dainty face stepped up? Are the madams here to entertain us instead?"
This remark resulted in roars of laughter from Brother Wu and his men.
Unfortunately for them, they weren't addressing a weak flower, but a formidable challenger!
The overseer of Blackstone City, a late-stage Three Luo Yuanma powerhouse!
Upon recognizing the potential threat, the burly man immediately became confused as Chi Lian Fairy closed in. "Am I…beautiful?" she asked.
"Beautiful…"
Brother Wu burst into even louder laughter—until the instant Chi Lian Fairy's eyes gleamed with cold light. Silver streaks of light flashed so quickly they seemed impossible to track, penetrating directly into Brother Wu and his accomplices in mere moments.
As the strikes landed, those impacted froze in place as though their bodies had been sealed.
Chi Lian Fairy smiled serenely at them. "Compete with me—a fool's errand."
Suddenly, expressions of terror spread across Brother Wu's face and that of his allies as their bodies, released from the bindings, began trembling uncontrollably. Their fear was visible as loud slaps echoed cruelly across their faces.
Those who received a slap found themselves entirely subdued. The audience watched in shock, unsure of what had just transpired.
They muttered to themselves, "What was that?"
Even Yang Tian, who had been watching silently, couldn't help but think about what he had just seen.
Chi Lian Fairy—a Three Deer Yuanma-level powerhouse with strength comparable to the initial stage of Sanlu Yuanma hierarchy.
Yet it was obvious to everyone watching that Yang Chuan held command over this sequence of events, with Chi Lian Fairy following his lead!
Certainly, within Yang Chuan's dominion, no one from Fang Yuan dared to challenge his authority.
But the momentary panic subsided, and Fang Yuan quickly regained composure.
Although Yang Chuan's faction was extraordinary, Fang Yuan's influence came from being the number-one refining martial expert in the entire province!
Thus, he promptly and ambiguously stated, "I can't provoke you, but that doesn't mean you'll leave here unharmed. Don't forget my master is a renowned Refiner Machine Grandmaster!"
"A grandmaster?"
Before Yang Tian could respond, Lian Liangzi sneered, "What a marvelous declaration."
"What do you mean by that?!"
At Fang Yuan's words, the surrounding onlookers nodded silently, as if acknowledging just how elevated the profession was.
In Ma Realm, followers of a Cultivation Mechanic often commanded authority rivaling even elder-level Yuanma cultivators. Despite Chi Lian Fairy's Three Luo Yuanma status, surpassing raw force of Wuke Zhenma, the crafting hierarchy mattered more.
This rationale bred Fang Yuan's confidence. Yet neither Yang Chuan nor Chi Fairy seemed fazed, their poise unwavering.
Frustrated, Fang Yuan raised his voice. "Didn't you hear what I said? Your insubordination at my company…"
"Your company?"
