…
In the Sacred Heart Palace.
Yun Yang looked at the mountain range, a sense of awe rising within him.
Previously, when he looked at it from the outside, he only saw a few pavilions and pavilions that occupied an area of at most a few acres. However, after entering, he realized that this place was at least a few thousand miles wide. There were mountains and valleys that stretched on endlessly. Clouds and mist floated back and forth. It was like a paradise on earth.
The spiritual Qi here was so rich that even Yun Yang felt suffocated. From time to time, a dense mass of spiritual Qi would rush over and drizzle spiritual liquid over his head.
Wherever he breathed, he could smell the spiritual Qi that could make his cultivation base advance by leaps and bounds. Heaven and earth treasures were everywhere he looked, and auspicious clouds surrounded him. He could hear the sound of pines rustling and the wind whistling.
"The Sacred Heart Palace is really a good place!"
Hearing that Huo Yunfeng had returned, Ding Buke and You Buneng came out to greet him with surprise on their faces. They were so excited that they almost fainted. They hugged Huo Yunfeng with tears on their faces, crying, laughing, shouting, and screaming. The Saint Venerable state they had cultivated for many years was gone at this moment!
Pu Deshuang and the others also hurried out.
The moment he saw Huo Yunfeng, Pu Deshuang's face was full of surprise, but he cursed, "I knew this scourge was not dead! This old b * stard … A scourge that lives for thousands of years! Why didn't you just f * cking die outside? Bastard! Then I don't have to pay my debt! "
The other two attendants shook their heads angrily and said, "I'm so disappointed! I'm so disappointed! "
Huo Yunfeng laughed and said, "You want me dead? Are you blind? Let me tell you, there's no way you can go back on your word! I knew you were going to go back on your word, so I didn't die anyway! "
"Hahaha …"
Everyone laughed, not taking it seriously at all.
Then, they stepped forward and thanked him for escorting Huo Yunfeng back.
Five or six attendants enthusiastically accompanied Yun Yang to the place where he stayed. Then, they called their friends and began to hold a banquet. All kinds of spiritual fruits and wine were brought out like flowing water.
Huo Yunfeng, on the other hand, went straight to the hall of the temple master.
"How was it?"
Pu Deshuang looked at Yun Yang and asked with a smile, "It was very dangerous along the way, wasn't it? It's said that the Golden Condor King personally came out to kill you. Us brothers were so anxious that the Temple Master immediately sent two hundred people to meet you, but they only managed to kill a few Golden Condors. How did you come back? Didn't you meet the Golden Condor King …? "
Yun Yang cursed inwardly. 'What do you mean by hunting us?
I'm clearly going to hunt Huo Yunfeng of the Golden Condor? It's a rare for me to be a good person, but I wasted a lot of effort! '
"F * ck! If you only wanted to hunt me down, I would've long since used my various manifestations to escape. As for exposing my ultimate trump card, the purple jade flute, I even had to hint to that old man Huo Yunfeng to keep it a secret. It's rare for me to be a good person, but I wasted so much effort!
Yun Yang's mind was racing, but his expression was neither servile nor overbearing. He recounted his encounters along the way in detail. When he told them that Huo Yunfeng had been struck by the Golden Condor King's Mortal to Metal technique and that he had used Fight Poison with Poison to cure Huo Yunfeng, they all looked dejected when he told them that Huo Yunfeng could no longer use mystical Qi after being struck by the Golden Condor King's Mortal to Metal technique and that he had cast Fight Poison with Poison treatment on him.
Each of them had the cultivation base of a Supreme Saint, so they naturally knew what it meant for a cultivator of the same level to be unable to use mystical Qi for the rest of his life.
After that, he would become an existence even worse than a cripple!
Huo Yunfeng only hurried over when he was half drunk. He wanted to get drunk and vent the frustration that had accumulated in the past few days.
"The temple master has appointed me as the Deputy Supervisor of the Sacred Heart Palace's Internal Affairs … From now on, the martial world … has nothing to do with me anymore!" Huo Yunfeng's voice was filled with an indescribable sense of loss.
Ding Buke and You Buneng sat silently on the side, not knowing what to say.
Yun Yang was also silent for a long time.
After getting out of danger, Yun Yang had asked Emmie about Huo Yunfeng's physical condition in detail, especially whether there was a possibility of curing him, but Emmie's answer was mixed.
Emmie told Yun Yang that there were at least three effective methods to eliminate the hidden Metal Qi in Huo Yunfeng's body, but none of them could be done in a short time. The first one was that if Emmie could improve itself and its instinctive power to a higher level, then it could give Huo Yunfeng some Spirit Sprout to completely eliminate the abnormality in his body. However, Emmie's upgrade had always been a big problem, and it could not be achieved without great opportunities. It was beyond Yun Yang's control, so it was a classic example of an unattainable goal!
Secondly, if Yun Yang could make another breakthrough in his Endless Divine Art, he was confident that he could eliminate the negative situation completely. Although Yun Yang had reached the peak of the fifth stage of the Endless Divine Art for a long time, he still needed a lot of karma Qi to advance. It was not something that could be gathered in a short time.
As for the third one, it was one of Yun Yang's manifestation powers that he had not used for a long time, the Metal Elemental Art!
That was the cultivation method that belonged to Yun Yang's second brother, the Nine Supremes' Golden Supreme Gu Jiu. After Yun Yang had gathered all the manifestations of the Nine Supremes' divine arts, he should have been an expert in the art of metal. However, he was adept at manipulating wind, cloud, water, fire, thunder, blood, and earth. Only wood and metal were the two elements that he was the most inexperienced in, and he would stop after just a little taste!
Because of Emmie, all plants in the world could be controlled by the former, so Yun Yang did not need to worry about it at all. As for the latter, Yun Yang had better methods to refine rare metals and fight enemies, so these two powers were rarely used.
Therefore, Yun Yang's understanding of the Metal Elemental Art was only at the level of Unparalleled Sharpness and Impregnable Defense, which was also the most commonly used method to fight enemies when Golden Supreme Gu Jiu was charging and breaking through enemy lines in the past.
Emmie pointed out directly. If Yun Yang had the same level of attainment in the Metal Elemental Art as Wind and Cloud Divine Art, he could definitely eliminate the Golden Condor King's Metal Elemental Qi easily and even integrate it for his own use. However, with Yun Yang's current attainment and knowledge in the Metal Elemental Art, the gap was almost incalculable and he could not do anything about it.
He knew that there were many ways to cure the Golden Condor King, but they were all within reach. How could Yun Yang be in a good mood?
"Right, the Temple Master asked me to tell you that he will meet you in the afternoon." Huo Yunfeng looked at Yun Yang and said with a smile, "I didn't mention the underground river …"
His words were somewhat meaningful, but Yun Yang understood the meaning immediately.
However, what kind of person was Yun Yang? Naturally, he understood the deeper meaning behind it.
"Thank you, Big Brother Huo!"
…
Escorted by the stewards, they arrived at Huo Yunfeng's house. It was a large house that occupied an area of thirty to forty acres, but the furnishings inside were extremely simple and even a little shabby. At least, it did not match Huo Yunfeng's identity as a Supreme Saint expert.
This situation also made everyone present furious.
"Huo Yunfeng, you miser! You f * cking won so much money from me, but where did you spend it?"
"That's right, you f * cking cheat us of our money every day. Look at how poor your house is … Where's the money?"
"Huo Yunfeng, where's my money?"
"… Where's the money?"
Huo Yunfeng snorted with a cold face, completely ignoring the clamoring of the people in front of him.
Yun Yang, on the other hand, could not help but be dumbfounded for a long time. Although he knew a little about Huo Yunfeng's money-grubbing nature, among the twenty or so stewards who came here, none of them had ever cheated money from Huo Yunfeng. This seemed a little extreme …
"Think carefully, all of you. From now on, this old man will be in charge of internal affairs …" Huo Yunfeng rolled his eyes and said, "A considerable part of your household expenses will come from this old man's hands …"
Such blatant hints caused everyone to be dumbfounded.
"If you know what's good for you, hurry up and give me gifts to please me!"
Steward Huo began to ask for bribes. "Especially those who owe me money, hurry up and send me the final sum! If you dare to delay, don't count on your family's expenses for thousands of years … Weigh the pros and cons! "
He cast a sidelong glance at Pu Deshuang and the others, full of provocation and provocation.
Pu Deshuang jumped up, clenched his teeth, grabbed his neck, and shook him hard. "You don't have any mystical Qi or cultivation base, yet you still dare to threaten us? Be careful, I'll beat you eighteen times a day! Have you forgotten that the Mystical Yellow Iron says that the bigger the fist, the bigger the reason?"
"Hehe, I don't have any cultivation base now, so of course I have to focus on making money. You beat me eighteen times a day. Kill me directly if you can! Not to mention eighteen times, even if you beat me eighteen thousand times … You can't owe me a single cent less …" Huo Yunfeng's eyes rolled back as he was strangled, but he still could not be subdued by force and could not be corrupted by cultivation base.
Yun Yang's eyes were filled with admiration as he watched the group of servants fooling around. There was even envy in his eyes.
This group of Deacons had been together for thousands of years, and they were already as close as brothers. Perhaps each of them had some small flaws, such as greed, lust, or something else … But no matter what their flaws were, they had all been tolerated after being together for thousands of years …
Although they quarreled and quarreled every day, the brotherhood between them had long been as strong as gold and stone and could not be shaken!
At the thought of this, Yun Yang could not help but think of his brothers, whose whereabouts were unknown now. Wasn't the relationship between the Nine Supremes like this? It was a pity that the time the Nine Supremes spent together was too little, too little!
Everyone was winking at Yun Yang when he was going to see the Temple Master in the afternoon.
"Our Temple Master likes young talents the most. Sect Leader Yun, you only need to show your true colors, which are neither servile nor overbearing. Don't flatter him deliberately … Our Temple Master is a donkey. The more you flatter him, the angrier he will be."
"Yes, yes, yes. Just act as you usually do. Don't be too concerned about being pretentious."
"Our Temple Master is actually a little silly …"
Everyone gave Yun Yang face to face advice. Their harsh words were far beyond Yun Yang's expectation, and he did not know whether to laugh or cry.
'Is it really okay for you to talk about your Temple Master behind his back like this? Is it really okay?'
…
In the afternoon.
Led by Pu Deshuang, Yun Yang entered the core hall of the Sacred Heart Palace, the Heavenly Heart Palace.
There were only two guards at the entrance of the hall. When he entered, there was only a room the size of an ordinary house inside, and there were already five people seated inside. As Yun Yang entered, the five of them looked up at the same time.
Sitting at the head of the table was a burly bearded man with round eyes and a leopard's head. Although he was sitting, Yun Yang estimated that he should be at least nine feet tall if he stood up. If it was just his physical body weight, it would probably be no less than three hundred catties.
What a burly man, his physique was extremely strong!
A thick black robe was draped over his body, but the front was unbuttoned, revealing a thick patch of chest hair.
Seeing Yun Yang enter, he actually laughed with his long legs stretched out and waved his hand, saying, "You must be the leader of the Residence of Nine Supremes, Yun Yang? I am Zhan Wufei. Come, come, come, come. Don't be shy, don't stand on ceremony, don't stand on ceremony. "
For a moment, Yun Yang felt like his brain had short-circuited.
To be honest, before this, Yun Yang had fantasized countless times about how the lord of the Sacred Heart Palace, the legendary Saint level expert, Zhan Wufei, would look like!
However, no matter how much he thought about it, looking at all his imaginations and fantasies, he had never thought that Zhan Wufei would actually look like this!
If this fellow were to walk out, Yun Yang would only think that he was a bandit if others did not mention his identity!
He was filled with the aura of a bandit from head to toe, and he did not hide it at all.
The demeanor of an expert, the temperament of a senior, the dignity of a pinnacle expert … none of it was there!
Not even a drop of it was there!
The four people on both sides of the leader were also friendly, very refined and elegant. At least, in Yun Yang's understanding, this was what a lord of the Sacred Heart Palace should look like.
However, only this lord of the Sacred Heart Palace did not match the demeanor that a lord of the Sacred Heart Palace should have in Yun Yang's mind.
Yun Yang wanted to say something, but he could not think of the right words at that moment. He choked and was speechless for a long time.
He had wanted to compliment the lord with a few polite words like 'I've long heard of the lord's great name, and now that I've seen you today, you're indeed an immortal, and you live up to your reputation'. However, he could not bring himself to say such words now.
If he were to say such words to this fellow, Yun Yang's guilty conscience was secondary; he was even more afraid that the other party would think that he was mocking him …
"This is the assistant lord, Chun Ruoshui; this is the assistant lord, Meng Changfei; this is the assistant lord, Tian Wumeng; and this is the great elder, Lei Qianli." Zhan Wufei introduced them casually, "You're all not outsiders, sit, sit."
He glared at him. "Why aren't you sitting?"
Yun Yang smiled bitterly and plopped himself down on the chair, a strange feeling surging within him, lasting for a long time.
Really …
His worldview was ruined!
"May I ask who your master is, Sect Leader Yun? Is it convenient for you to reveal it? " Zhan Wufei smiled. It would have been better if he had not smiled, for there was a tinge of ferocity to it. As he smiled, the curly beard on his face trembled, like a lion grinning.
His words were straight to the point. The Sacred Heart Palace and most of the sects with Celestial Luck Banners would be very interested in Yun Yang's background. This would affect their attitude towards Yun Yang and the Residence of Nine Supremes in the future.
"There's nothing that I can't say about my master … but forgive me for being blunt, I don't even know what my master's name is or what his title is." Yun Yang smiled bitterly. "The old man has never mentioned it …"
"Looks like he's also an eccentric old thing …" Zhan Wufei was not bothered at all and said, "Old things nowadays are all eccentric, and they do things in secret; they're not at all straightforward. They're not as straightforward as they used to be when they roamed the martial world, holding their breath. "
The other four looked up into the sky, looking left and right.
Regarding the lord lord's daily mockery, they treated it as a gust of wind blowing past their ears. There was no point in pursuing it, and it would only make them more annoyed.
"Sect Leader Yun, what do you think?" Zhan Wufei would not let Yun Yang off the hook, asking with a glare.
"What do I think?" Yun Yang was stunned. It did not seem like it was his place to express his opinion.
After some thought, he said, "Actually, I think that this situation is very, very, very normal. The old seniors have roamed the martial world for thousands of years, they've seen all kinds of storms and seen all kinds of worldly affairs. They're already used to the mundane world; how can they not be tired of it? Now that they want to conceal their strength and bide their time, they want to live a few days of peace. While they're in seclusion, when they see someone or something that's tempting enough, they'll be overjoyed. It's only human nature to be eccentric when you think about it. "
He thought about it and said, "At least, it's not a good thing right now, but it's not necessarily a bad thing either. Let's see how many people can end their lives of seclusion and step forward when there's a big mess in the future. That's the key. I wonder if senior thinks so … "
Zhan Wufei slapped his thigh and said, "F * ck! You're absolutely right, you've hit the nail on the head! It's a personal choice for those old fellows to live in seclusion. It's understandable during times of peace and has nothing to do with the grand scheme of things. However, we humans and the Demon Race will have a war sooner or later. Unfortunately, we humans can't enter the core of the Demon Race's territory, but those bastards from the Demon Race can enter our territory and stir up trouble. There's been more and more friction in recent years, but those old fellows are nowhere to be seen. Once the war breaks out, it'll be terrible if those old bastards get used to living in peace and don't come out. "
Yun Yang laughed and said, "I'm not as pessimistic as you, Palace Lord. I think when the war between the two races comes, those who step forward will definitely be much more than those who live in seclusion. Palace Lord, you're thinking too much. The human heart is something that everyone has!"
Zhan Wufei laughed and said, "Yun Yang, you're a good thing, and your heart is even better! I quite like your temper. "
Yun Yang lowered his head, exasperated.
I'm a good thing?
May I ask what kind of good thing am I?
Do you know what my heart is like? I don't even know myself, alright?
There's still someone who talks like this … he must be drunk.
How did such a person become the Palace Lord of the Sacred Heart Palace?
