The deal was sealed.
Ji Ling was officially staying in the Residence of Yun.
"Such a huge residence, only the two of you?" Ji Ling said, "It's too quiet! I'll just stay here. "
"It's inconvenient for a man and a woman to stay alone under the fields. It's best for Miss Ji to stay in an inn. "Yun Yang covered his bruised right eye. This was the price he had to pay for teasing her earlier.
"I want to tell my sisters that you have an affinity for mystical beasts …"
"Alright, which room will you be staying in?"
…
Yun Yang sighed as he ate.
On the opposite side, Young Miss Ji watched Yun Yang eat with a shocked expression, her eyes frozen.
"You, you, you … ate so much by yourself?" Ji Ling watched as Yun Yang ate the mountain of mystical beast meat with such grace and calmness. She felt uneasy.
This was … forty catties? Fifty catties? Or …
"Hurry up and eat." Lao Mei grabbed a big piece and stuffed it into his mouth. "It'll be gone in a while."
"…"
Ji Ling was dumbfounded.
…
Yun Yang had no interest in the competition between these young ladies, but …
"The competition between these young masters is interesting." Yun Yang's gaze darkened. "I want to go against the Four Seasons Tower now, but I have nowhere to start. I have the will, but I don't have the strength. I might as well start with these noble families."
Yun Yang's eyes shone brighter as he thought about it.
"I can adjust if the direction is wrong, but I can't do nothing." A strange glint flashed across Yun Yang's eyes as he thought about what to do.
Yun Yang thought to himself, "If it's a mystical beast tournament, there should be quite a number of young masters here by now."
Ji Ling was pleased with herself. "Who asked you to anger me, to chase me away? Hmph, you still have to help me in the end." She did not know that Yun Yang had already used her as a springboard. Not only was he plotting against her, he was also plotting against all the young masters from the noble families who were about to arrive.
In fact, from that day onward, even these families … began to be in turmoil.
Yun Yang could have resolved Ji Ling's so-called threat with a single sentence, "It doesn't matter. No matter who you tell, I only need to ensure that you lose."
However, how could Yun Yang do that?
If it were not for Ji Ling's arrival, Yun Yang would not have thought of this place. However, Ji Ling's arrival had suddenly opened up a wide path in front of Yun Yang.
External force!
External forces. External forces that even his enemies wouldn't think of were the ones that posed a real threat.
It looked like he would have to explore Tiantang City more often.
"Tomorrow, let's go pick a mystical beast," Yun Yang said.
"Alright."
…
Late at night.
In Marshal Qiu Jianhan's residence.
The old marshal was in his study, staring at a painting on the wall in a daze.
It was a battlefield. Nine different colors were wreaking havoc on the battlefield. The earth was churning, thunder and lightning flashed. On one side, flames soared to the sky. On one side, there were boundless waves. On one side, there were howling winds. On one side, there were clouds filling the sky. On the other side …
Nine Supremes.
"You nine little fellows …" The old marshal's eyes were moist, "You've always been careful … why are you this time …"
The portrait was silent. The nine masked men were still standing on the battlefield.
The old marshal heaved a long sigh.
Suddenly.
A shrill howl rang out in the sky.
A loud shout came from outside, "Who is it!?"
Then, the entire residence was thrown into chaos.
A glint of sword light flew in from the courtyard wall hundreds of feet away. With a loud boom, the roof of a side room in the Marshal's Residence was smashed to pieces and flew into the sky.
With a flash of white light, it was inserted into the door frame. There was a piece of paper on it, making a flapping sound.
A chilling voice rang out, "Qiu Jianhan! Wu Wenyuan, we'll let this go, we'll give you face. However, one should know when to adapt to the circumstances. If you continue to be stubborn, be careful that even the people behind you won't be able to save your old life! "
With a flash of sword light, a few guards grunted at the same time. The sword light had already soared into the sky, carrying with it a faint shadow. Below, countless guards flew in pursuit.
The sword light turned in the air and a rain of swords rained down. The light was dazzling, like an exploding meteor. The guards were shocked, swinging their swords to protect themselves. Where the sword light disappeared, only the galaxy could be seen and the moon in the sky could be seen. The person in the sky had disappeared without a trace.
Qiu Jianhan had been standing at the door since the beginning. His expression was calm, his gaze was arrogant as he stood with his arms behind his back.
"Let me see it."
The paper fell into Qiu Jianhan's hands. When he opened it, there was only one sentence written in fresh blood.
"The Nine Supremes are dead, there is no grudge!"
Bang!
Qiu Jianhan tore the paper into pieces and hollered, "The revenge of the Nine Supremes is irreconcilable!"
His voice was fierce, traveling far and wide, causing the air to buzz.
"Heh heh heh …"
An eerie voice came from afar, "You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. Just you wait!" There was no more sound after that.
Old Marshal Qiu howled into the sky, his eyes glaring at the sky, "I won't rest until I'm dead!"
Half of the capital city was shaken to the core.
The old marshal was speechless.
I've only investigated a few of the masterminds and you're already so impatient? Who's going to pay for the Nine Supremes' deaths?
…
Yun Yang's house was not far from the Residence of Marshal. The old marshal's deafening roar that was infused with pure mystical Qi had shaken the entire capital city. Of course, Yun Yang had heard it loud and clear.
He sat up with a grunt, a mystical glow flashing in his hands as he scribbled a few words quickly. The words glowed with mystical Qi and vanished into thin air.
"Investigate the night incident at the Residence of Marshal!"
…
Early morning.
The mystical beast market.
Yun Yang was dressed in a deep purple robe, strolling leisurely. Although he looked like he was unwilling to come here, his grace and elegance did not diminish at all.
He was surrounded by shops.
The mystical beast trading market was completely different from the pet trading market. It was very clean and there was no smell at all. Furthermore, the mystical beasts traded here were all second level and above mystical beasts.
Mystical beasts of second level and above had already gained some form of intelligence and could not stand being unclean.
Ji Ling followed behind Yun Yang, playing with the Thousand Illusion Monkey that was perched on Yun Yang's shoulder. She looked carefree. However, Yun Yang knew that this girl was not someone to be trifled with.
The fact that she could threaten him and pinpoint his weakness proved that this was not something an ordinary person could do.
Right now, the Thousand Illusion Monkey looked harmless. The horns on its head had been retracted by some unknown method, and its tail had turned into a single tail. It looked just like an ordinary young monkey.
Along the way, its bloodshot eyes darted left and right but no matter what it saw that attracted its attention, it refused to leave Yun Yang's embrace.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss …"
An inexplicable sound rang out.
When he passed by the first shop, a few golden statue-like snakes in the cages at the shop's entrance suddenly raised their heads and hissed at Yun Yang, flicking their tongues at him and banging their bodies against the cages, as if they were desperate to get out of it.
Yun Yang's heart sank. Although it was not a bad thing to attract mystical beasts, it was definitely not a good thing to expose it often! He had to find a way to conceal this ability.
Ji Ling's eyes shone brightly.
Indeed …
Although Yun Yang was not cultivating, the unique scent of freshness on him and the air of vitality that was beneficial to mystical beasts could not be concealed.
"Gold Thread Crimson Viper." Yun Yang pursed his lips and continued walking as if he did not see anything.
Gold Thread Crimson Viper was poisonous, a third level mystical beast. However, Yun Yang was not interested in it at all.
Next was the second shop, then the third …
As long as Yun Yang walked in, he would cause a commotion among the mystical beasts.
Yun Yang pondered in his heart.
The criteria for selecting a mystical beast were not low. First, it had to be more obedient than being tamed. Second, it had to have a rapport with its master. Third, it had to be taught new abilities. Fourth, it had to be dependent on its master.
Furthermore, it had to be no more than fifth level.
This meant that there were five criteria. Among the mystical beasts that did not exceed fifth level, there were not many who could fulfill all these criteria.
In addition, from Yun Yang's point of view, there should be another condition – it had to be suitable for women to be tamed. This condition might seem insignificant, but it was actually very important.
It was Yun Yang's first time coming to the Mystical Trade Market. He had never been to such a place before. The low-level mystical beast meat he ate had been bought by Lao Mei himself, so Yun Yang did not have to do it himself.
Now that he was here, it was bustling with activity. There was an endless stream of people coming and going. It was like a huge market.
In front of him, there were a few people dressed in snow-white robes waving their folding fans, talking loudly as they walked over without a care in the world.
Yun Yang almost laughed when he saw them.
They were familiar faces.
Young Master Ma and Young Master Qin, with their respective attendants, were looking to the left and right with smiles on their faces. Most of their gazes were not on the mystical beasts, but on the passing ladies instead.
This Young Master Ma was actually carrying a beast cub in his arms? Her sparkling eyes were innocently looking around her surroundings …
Yun Yang's eyes lit up.
"Hey, young lady, I think I've seen you somewhere before …" Young Master Ma stopped a lady who was passing by, deep in thought. "Where was it again? Let me think … "
The lady spat and turned around with a look of disgust, breaking out of the crowd in another direction.
"Hey, hey, don't go … I remember now … Why are you leaving? How depressing, why are all the young ladies like this now? How boring … "
Young Master Ma looked dejected.
"Ai, young lady, when I saw you today, I suddenly had an idea and composed a poem … Ai, don't go …" Young Master Qin's face was full of defeat. "I'll let you see my literary talent … Ai, ai …"
The two beasts spread their arms and shrugged their shoulders, unconcerned as they continued to search for their next target.
Yun Yang almost laughed out loud.
These two bastards!
They were worthy of being called popinjays!
"These two fellows are so annoying." Ji Ling frowned as she looked at the two fellows.
As they spoke, Young Master Qin and Young Master Ma turned their heads and saw Ji Ling. Ji Ling's body was turned sideways so her face could not be seen, only an infinitely beautiful figure.
In an instant, the eyes of the two animals suddenly lit up, and they rushed over with three steps at the same time.
These two fellows were so lustful that they did not notice Yun Yang standing on the side. They surrounded Ji Ling from both sides. "Young lady, young lady, you look so familiar …"
"Cough!" Yun Yang coughed.
If he did not stop them, these two fellows would probably be beaten to death by Ji Ling.
"Uh … Young Master Yun?" Young Master Ma turned his head and called out as if he had seen a ghost. On the other side, Young Master Qin, who had been ingratiating himself with Ji Ling, turned his head as well. His expression turned bitter as well as he called out, "Brother Yun … Hahaha … It's a small world indeed …"
Yun Yang snorted, "You two seem to be having a good time."
Young Master Ma nodded and bowed with a smile. "Brother Yun must be joking. No matter how much fun we have had, we can't compare to Brother Yun … Traveling with a beauty, what a hero!"
Young Master Qin put on a smile as well. "Yes, yes, Brother Yun is really lucky with women …"
At this moment, Ji Ling turned her head around with a frosty expression and glared daggers at Young Master Qin and Young Master Ma.
Just as Young Master Qin and Young Master Ma were about to put on a smile, they suddenly held it in.
Their faces froze.
This lady had such a beautiful figure, such an outstanding temperament, and the cool Immortal Qi that almost intoxicated anyone who looked at her. But why was her face so ugly?
