The Three Rushing Thunder Swords looked at each other. Lei Jian then said, "No way. The one who has been spreading rumors in the Arcane Sky Ancient City about exchanging the Purple Crystal Royal Jelly for the Lightning Tribulation Water is you, Brother Lu?"
Lu Ping smiled bitterly and said, "That's me, it's just that I wanted to attract some people to exchange for treasures. Who would have thought that it would turn out like this? The Lightning Tribulation Liquid is so precious, I'm not arrogant enough to use a little honey to exchange for it!"
"You really …"
Lei Jian only managed to say three words before he was kicked by Lei Jian, who then lowered his voice and said, "Brother Lu, do you really have Amethyst Royal Jelly?"
Lu Ping nodded and said, "Indeed, I was fortunate enough to obtain some Amethyst Royal Jelly in the Seven Star Heavenly Cave in the Northern Sea. It was a narrow escape, but the amount was limited."
Lei Jian nodded and believed that Lu Ping was not lying. It was already very precious to obtain a little bit of Amethyst Royal Jelly. If Lu Ping said that he had a lot of royal jelly and was really going to use it to exchange for the Lightning Tribulation Liquid, the Three Rushing Thunder Swords might not believe him.
However, the trio would never have guessed that Lu Ping really had a lot of Amethyst Royal Jelly. Not only that, but he could also produce it endlessly. This was all because Lu Ping had a swarm of Amethyst Bees led by the Amethyst Bee King, Zi Lan. Not only that, but he had also tamed them into Dao soldiers. As long as he could find a suitable spirit herb garden, the Amethyst Royal Jelly and Amethyst Royal Jelly could be produced endlessly.
Lei Jian discreetly glanced at Yun Jian and Lei Jian. When he saw Yun Jian subtly nodding his head, Lei Jian immediately whispered to Lu Ping in a mysterious tone, "Brother Lu, actually, hmm, although the Purple Crystal Royal Jelly isn't enough to exchange for the Lightning Tribulation Aqua, unless you have a large amount of royal jelly that you can sell, the three of us have a matter that we need Brother Lu's help with. If this matter is successful, Brother Lu might be able to obtain the Lightning Tribulation Aqua. At that time, you just need to give us a few drops of royal jelly."
Lu Ping's heart skipped a beat. He did not expect the news of the Lightning Tribulation Liquid to come so quickly after he released the news of the royal jelly.
However, seeing how mysterious the Three Rushing Thunder Swords were, Lu Ping couldn't help but be cautious. After all, this was Arcane Tianxuan City, the territory of the Three Rushing Thunder Swords. Yet, the Three Rushing Thunder Swords came to him, an outsider, instead of looking for him. How could he not be suspicious?
Lu Ping pondered for a moment and said, "It's not that I don't trust the three of you, but this is Mystic Sky Ancient City after all. The three of you could've asked for help from your respective masters and martial brothers. Why did you choose me? After all, I'm just an outsider."
Lei Jian smiled meaningfully and said, "Brother Lu is also from a big sect in the North Sea. Even though some things are not bad, they can't be exposed to the public. I believe Brother Lu knows this."
Although Lu Ping did not know that the Seven Fan Laozu had only exchanged five portions of Lightning Tribulation Liquid from the Five Holy Lands at the cost of thousands of miles of territory, which caused many people in the Mysterious Sky Sect to be dissatisfied, and many hot-blooded disciples secretly colluded to kill the Seven Fan Laozu's emissaries from the Five Holy Lands to snatch the Lightning Tribulation Liquid from them. However, from Lei Jian's words, he could roughly guess the nature of the matter.
When he thought up to here, Lu Ping pretended to hesitate for a moment before he said, "Since there's news about the Lightning Tribulation Elixir, then I have to fight for it no matter what. However, I wonder if the three of you have any way to accomplish the matter I spoke of earlier?"
Hearing Lu Ping's agreement, the Three Rushing Thunder Swords were overjoyed. They had seen Lu Ping's strength with their own eyes. If they could get such a strong support, they would be more confident in their secret plans.
Lei Jian patted his chest and said, "Brother Lu, don't worry. In seven days, there will be a secret Spiritual Item Trade Fair in the Mysterious Sky Ancient City. It's hosted by our sect's owner to provide an opportunity for the various forces to exchange their needs for the Seven Fan Laozu's Pure Yang Dharma Assembly. When the time comes, we will ask for an invitation for Brother Lu."
Lu Ping was overjoyed. A trade fair hosted by a sect like the Mysterious Sky Sect was naturally of a high level. The Central Plains had always been the wealthiest in the world. This time, it was a trade fair specifically for Spiritual Items. It was believed that the Spiritual Items that would appear would be of a higher quality than the Fantasy Spirit City Auction in the Eastern Sea that Lu Ping had once participated in.
However, this was not Lu Ping's first day in the cultivation world. Naturally, he would not get involved just because of a few vague promises from the Three Rushing Thunder Swords. Straightening his expression, he said, "If that's the case, can the three of you tell me the details of your plan? After all, the Lightning Tribulation Liquid is too sensitive. I don't think it will be that easy to get our hands on it."
"That's right!"
Lei Jian was about to tell Lu Ping the reason for the matter when Yun Jian, who was beside him, said, "There are too many people here. Let's find a quiet place to tell Brother Lu the details."
The Mysterious Sky Mountain was next to the mountain and next to the sea. At this moment, on the sea tens of thousands of miles away from the Mysterious Sky Mountain, a huge treasure ship was quickly moving northwest of the Mysterious Sky Mountain.
At this moment, on the deck of the treasure ship, a tall and well-proportioned cultivator, who looked young but had a rather calm demeanor, was standing at the front of the treasure ship, gazing into the distance in the direction that the treasure ship was sailing in.
The treasure ship rode the wind and cut through the waves, stirring up towering waves that hit the cultivator. However, before the waves could reach a meter in front of the cultivator, they were smashed away as if they had encountered an invisible wall. Many of the waves stuck to the invisible wall and slowly flowed down, revealing the invisible wall's outline.
"Hehe, Junior Brother Zhang, you seem to be looking forward to this trip to the Central Plains?"
A chuckle came from behind the cultivator. The cultivator slowly turned around. If Lu Ping was here, he would definitely be able to recognize this Junior Brother Zhang as Zhang Shijie, the disciple of the Crystal Palace who was beaten up by Lu Ping's flying sword on Tianling Mountain before he could even see Lu Ping's figure.
Decades had passed, and the current Zhang Shijie had already condensed his Gold Core, reaching the peak of the Core Forging Realm!
Zhang Shijie turned around and saw a young man in white slowly walking toward him.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Huang."
"Since we are no longer in the sect, why are you so polite, Junior Brother Zhang? Junior Brother Zhang has always been cultivating diligently, and you are afraid to avoid welcoming and sending people off. This time, why did you recommend yourself and accompany Martial Granduncle Yuan Guang to the Central Plains? "
There was a trace of surprise in Senior Brother Huang's eyes, as if he was quite surprised by Zhang Shijie's visit to the Central Plains. However, after boarding the treasure ship, Zhang Shijie had been hiding in the cabin and cultivating diligently. Although Senior Brother Huang wanted to ask, he did not have the chance. This time, seeing Zhang Shijie standing at the bow of the ship, he naturally had to ask.
Zhang Shijie did not directly answer Senior Brother Huang's question. Instead, he changed the topic and asked, "Senior Brother, did the palace really send Martial Granduncle Yuan Guang to the Tianxuan Sect to celebrate the Seven Fans Laozu Pure Yang Assembly?"
Senior Brother Huang was stunned. He did not expect Zhang Shijie to not answer his question and change the topic to ask something else. He could not help but feel a little unhappy.
However, he knew that although the Junior Brother in front of him was not outstanding among the lineal disciples of the Crystal Palace, he was not even a lineal disciple of the Crystal Palace decades ago.
However, after returning from the North Sea decades ago, it was said that he was defeated by a disciple of the same rank from a sect in the North Sea. After that, he seemed to be a different person and fell into crazy cultivation for decades. Relying on his perseverance, his cultivation progress was not lower than that of the lineal disciples. Moreover, he had a solid foundation and strong strength. Finally, he was favored by the high-ranking practitioners of the Crystal Palace and became one of the lineal disciples of the Crystal Palace.
Senior apprentice-brother Huang had accompanied Ancestor Yuan Guang to the Central Plains this time. Seeing that Zhang Shijie had also come along, he had originally intended to rope Zhang Shijie in. Although he was somewhat displeased, he still smiled and said, "Of course I have other plans. Otherwise, it's not like the Central Plains has never had a Pure Yang Conclave before. When has our Crystal Palace ever given them such face? Not even the five Sacred Lands!"
Senior brother Huang's words revealed a sense of pride. The Crystal Palace was located in the Eastern Sea Region, the only major sect in the Outer Sea Region, possessing a transcendent status. This sense of pride was something that had been passed down for tens of thousands of years, bestowed upon the cultivators under the Crystal Palace.
"Oh, what's your plan?"
Zhang Shijie's indifferent expression made Senior Brother Huang feel that he had punched the air. But he still smiled peacefully and said patiently, "I'm afraid only Grand Uncle Yuan Guang knows the details. I just heard that it seems to be related to the Thunder Tribulation Water. It seems that the Seven Fan Laozu's Natal Spiritual Treasure is facing the Thunder Tribulation again, and he wants to wash it with a large amount of Thunder Tribulation Water to increase the probability of passing the Thunder Tribulation."
The Crystal Palace had been inherited for tens of thousands of years and had tens of thousands of disciples. All kinds of inheritances were all-inclusive, so the relationships in the sect were naturally very complicated.
There were a total of twenty-four direct disciples of the third generation of the Crystal Palace, and they were divided into several factions. Each faction fought with each other openly and covertly, and this Senior Brother Huang was one of the best of them all. He had already advanced to the Dharma stage long ago, and he was surrounded by a group of third generation disciples. He had quite the say among the third generation disciples.
Zhang Shijie was an anomaly amongst the third generation disciples of the Water Crystal Palace. He possessed extremely great strength, yet because of his hard work in cultivation, he had always remained uninvolved in the struggles of the third generation disciples. Senior apprentice-brother Huang would naturally not let go of this chance to pull Zhang Shijie into his camp this time.
"Oh, in that case, the Tianxuan Sect will have to pay a big price!"
Zhang Shijie didn't seem to see through Senior Brother Huang's intention and said casually, "It's just that although the Thunder Tribulation Water is precious, it seems to be making a mountain out of a molehill for Grand Uncle Yuan Guang to cross the Stormy Ocean and travel thousands of miles to the Central Region!"
Senior Brother Huang was surprised that this Junior Brother who only knew how to practice painstakingly could see it so clearly. Then, his intention of pulling Zhang Shijie to his side must have been seen through long ago, so his previous behavior seemed to be pretentious.
Senior Brother Huang was no longer reserved and said with a smile, "Junior Brother, you have a good eye. Although I don't know the purpose of this trip to the Central Region, from the words of Grand Uncle Yuan Guang and Martial Uncle Kunshan, it seems that the opportunity for our sect to enter the Central Region has come."
