The person called Yan Zong was a stooped old man in a grey robe.
His face was dark, and his body was as thin as a stick. He stood quietly in the corner of the study.
He did not make any sound, nor did he emit any aura.
He was like a blurry grey shadow that did not attract any attention.
However, his identity was not simple.
He was Yuwen Chengkong's most trusted butler and the second strongest person in the City Lord Mansion.
A fourth-level Divine Monarch Realm expert.
Hearing Yuwen Chengkong's murmur, Yan Zong kept his head down and his hands in his sleeves. He did not even lift his eyelids.
"Of course, the Qi Clan will not forget that your hands were once stained with blood, and you did not dare to go against the City Lord Mansion.
However, that Qi Clan's consecrator is an outsider. He was reckless and courted his own death.
With your current identity, no matter how angry you are, you can only endure it. You cannot take revenge openly. "
Yuwen Chengkong nodded slightly and said coldly, "The Qi Clan's consecrator must die! I will personally cut off his head and make it into a wine cup to comfort my son's soul in heaven! "
Yan Zong did not comment and continued, "I just received news that Qi Tianlong entered the capital with Ning Chengfeng's help. He has already reported his achievement to the King.
The King has announced that Qi Tianlong will be conferred the title of Viscount.
In terms of title and reputation, he is already equal to you. You cannot do anything to the Qi Clan.
Otherwise, the King will be unhappy and the other nobles will kick you when you are down.
For example, the Ning Clan. "
"Hehehe …" Yuwen Chengkong grinned coldly, revealing a row of white teeth.
"Can't do anything to the Qi Clan? I can't wait to raze the Qi Clan to the ground and leave no one alive!
However, this needs further planning. The most important thing now is to get rid of the Qi Clan's consecrator! "
Yan Zong nodded slightly and said, "It's because of the Qi Clan's consecrator that things have developed to this stage.
Before this, the Qi Clan was not even qualified to compete with the City Lord Mansion. "
Yuwen Chengkong stopped talking about this matter and asked in a low voice, "Is there any news from the Black Mermaid Tribe? Did that ugly black fish monster ask for an exorbitant price again? "
Yan Zong nodded and said, "As you expected, the Black Mermaid King wants thirty thousand pearls, thirty thousand sets of High Grade Heavenly God Equipment, and three hundred million Divine Stones!"
A cold glint flashed in Yuwen Chengkong's eyes. He sneered and said, "Damn those black fish monsters, they are indeed greedy and cunning!
It knew that I wouldn't be able to do it myself, so it dared to ask for such a ridiculous price!
However, since it can destroy the Profound Light Cave and kill the Qi Family's consecrator, I'm willing to accept this condition. "
"Sigh …" Yan Zong sighed softly and said in a calm voice, "Actually, you don't have to work with the Sea Tribe at all.
Once this matter was exposed and used by those with ulterior motives, it would become an excuse for other forces to attack the City Lord Manor.
After all, Qingshan City's location is rather sensitive, and the king has always been wary of you colluding with the sea race.
As long as you endure for a few more days, the Blood Sword Sect will naturally deal with the Qi Family and kill their Reverend! "
Yuwen Chengkong said in a low voice, "Of course I know that the Blood Sword Sect won't let the Qi Family and the Profound Light Cave off.
But I must avenge my son's death with my own hands.
Moreover, I can't wait that long!
The Fourth Elder of the Blood Sword Sect had been killed, and the Fifth Elder had been heavily injured. All of the elite disciples he had brought with him had been killed.
After suffering such heavy losses, the Blood Sword Sect will definitely reevaluate the Qi Family's strength and won't dare to act rashly.
In the short term, the Blood Sword Sect won't act rashly! "
Yan Zong fell silent.
Because he knew that Yuwen Chengkong's analysis wasn't far from the truth.
After a moment of silence, he said in a calm voice, "Since you've made up your mind, I'll go and reply to the Black Mermaid King."
"Go." Yuwen Chengkong waved his hand and said, "Tell the Black Mermaid King that I can agree to his condition, but I also have a condition.
The Qi Family's consecrator must be captured alive!
If I can't kill that bastard with my own hands, why should I pay such a price? "
"Understood," Yan Zong replied and immediately disappeared into the darkness.
Yuwen Chengkong was the only one left in the study, and he immediately fell silent.
He looked at the window with a cold gaze and silently thought, 'What kind of torture should I use to vent my hatred after capturing the Qi Family's consecrator?'
… …
For three consecutive days, the Profound Light Island was very peaceful.
No one from the Blood Sword Sect came for revenge, and the City Lord Manor didn't do anything.
Even the Qi Mansion and the Divine Beast Garden were safe and sound.
Everyone in the Qi Family had an illusion. Did the Blood Sword Sect and the City Lord Manor admit defeat?
The other party's plan had failed, and they had suffered a great loss. They shouldn't dare to attack again, right?
With this thought, many of the Qi Family's craftsmen and miners threw themselves into the mining business.
Batch after batch of Divine Stones and Divine Crystals were transported out of the workshop.
Qi Tianxing, Qi Tianchen, and Qi Huanzhi took turns to escort the Divine Stones and Divine Crystals back to the Qi Mansion in Azure Mountain City.
During these three days, Ji Tianxing was also very busy.
He spent three hundred thousand Divine Stones and three hundred Divine Crystals to set up two high grade Monarch Grade Divine Formations on the Profound Light Island.
A defensive formation protected the entire Profound Light Cave.
A powerful killing formation covered the entire island.
In this way, any enemy that stepped onto the Profound Light Island would be mercilessly killed.
Even an expert like the Blood Sword Sect's Fourth Elder couldn't destroy the defensive formation of the Profound Light Cave.
Compared to before, the defensive strength of the Profound Light Cave had increased by eight times!
When Ji Tianxing finished setting up the arrays, the two arrays began to operate. Only then did Qi Huanzhi feel completely at ease.
"Brother Tianxing, I didn't expect your attainments in the Array Dao to be so profound. It's simply amazing!
With the two Divine Formations you set up, the Profound Light Island is impregnable.
Even if the Blood Sword Sect and the City Lord Manor come back, they can forget about taking half a step onto the island! "
Qi Huanzhi had been watching from the side for a long time while Ji Tianxing was setting up the formations.
He had seen with his own eyes that someone could combine a trapping formation, a killing formation, a disorienting formation, and a sealing formation together.
Moreover, the two Divine Formations were high grade Monarch Grade Divine Formations that contained more than two hundred million variations.
It was truly complicated to the extreme!
Seeing Qi Huanzhi so happy and carefree, Ji Tianxing couldn't help but remind him.
"Although there are two Divine Formations protecting the Profound Light Island, you can't let your guard down.
There are many experts in the Blood Sword Sect, so you might be able to find a way to break it.
On normal days, you still need to strengthen the patrols and maintain vigilance. You can't let your guard down. "
Qi Huanzhi quickly nodded and said, "I understand, don't worry!"
After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Brother Tianxing, the Divine Beast Garden's defenses are weak. I'm also very worried.
How about you go to the Divine Beast Garden again and set up two Divine Formations? "
A few days ago, the Demonic Beasts and Divine Beasts that had escaped from the Divine Beast Garden were found by the Qi Family.
Although the Qi Family had only recovered half of the Divine Beasts.
The other half had long since left Azure Mountain City and was very difficult to catch.
But even so, the Qi Family had recovered nearly half of their losses.
Now, the Divine Beast Garden had returned to normal.
