Yes, the person he was waiting for was Prince Beixin.
The area where the ten kings of the Dayu Empire resided was under the jurisdiction of Prince Beixin.
In the fief, Prince Beixin was one of the people who had the ability to help them enter the Yellow List.
Perhaps other influences could do it, but Prince Beixin was the only one they could trust.
"Let's go and meet Prince Beixin." Su Yu finally stopped his training and stood up.
Empress Ziwei's eyes shone. "Meet him? You mean the butler is under Prince Beixin's orders? "
After thinking about it carefully, Empress Ziwei's eyes gradually brightened.
"No wonder a mere butler dares to participate in the black market trade. So that's why!" Empress Ziwei suddenly understood.
That butler was here on behalf of Prince Beixin.
Soon, in the most famous teahouse in the fief city, Forgotten Dust Pavilion.
Forgotten Dust Pavilion was built by the second son of Prince Beixin, Bei Wang Chen.
Bei Wang Chen was highly respected, and he was one of Prince Beixin's favorite sons. Many people thought he would inherit Prince Beixin's crown in 300 years.
Many strong men from all over the world had visited him, hoping to be his guest behind the scenes.
Once Bei Wang Chen ascended to the throne, they would become veterans and receive endless benefits.
Unfortunately, Bei Wang Chen was very strict in selecting his guests.
Many Glazed Crystal Overlords came to visit him, but they couldn't even meet him.
Even some peak overlords were rejected by Bei Wang Chen.
It was precisely because of this that the Forgotten Dust Pavilion that he had established by himself would often gather experts from all over the world who were depressed and frustrated.
Rumor had it that Bei Wang Chen would occasionally come to the Forgotten Dust Pavilion to discuss the world with the heroes of the world.
The strong men who came here hoped to meet Bei Wang Chen and be chosen by him.
When they arrived at the Forgotten Dust Pavilion, it was not as lively as they had imagined. Instead, it was cold and desolate.
There were only a few customers in the teahouse, sipping tea from time to time. It was different from what they had imagined.
However, all of those customers were strong men.
The weakest were Silver Overlords, and the strongest were Glazed Crystal Overlords.
They were the customers who had been waiting for Bei Wang Chen.
However, they were late. Bei Wang Chen had just come a few days ago, and it would be a long time before he came again. That was why the teahouse was so cold today.
"That housekeeper has chosen an interesting place," Su Yu said indifferently.
There was no doorman guarding the tea house, so anyone could enter.
But it was precisely because of this that those without sufficient strength would absolutely not rashly step foot into it.
As soon as he entered the teahouse, all the customers were potential competitors.
In an inn full of powerhouses, those without sufficient strength entering was no different from courting death.
Just the powerful pressure emitted by a powerhouse was enough to make an ordinary person suffer.
When Su Yu and the other three entered, they immediately felt several sharp and vigilant gazes.
A powerful pressure came from all directions.
Empress Ziwei was not afraid at all. She snorted coldly and dispersed the pressure.
Blood Guanyin was also fearless. She casually waved her sleeves and her expression returned to normal.
The Heartless Saber Monarch's footsteps also swayed, but he quickly stabilized his body.
However, Su Yu, whose cultivation was the lowest, walked in as if nothing had happened.
As Su Yu possessed the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo's fruit, any pressure that landed on his body would be absorbed and would not affect him in the slightest.
According to the housekeeper, Su Yu was waiting in box three.
A box was a symbol of status. Not everyone had the qualifications to book a box in the Forgotten Dust Pavilion.
Many Glazed Crystal Overlords did not even have the qualifications to enter a box.
When they arrived at box three, there was already a waiter waiting at the door.
"May I ask who you are?" the waiter asked.
Su Yu took out the jade talisman with the housekeeper's message and said, "A guest."
After a round of inspection, the waiter opened the door to the box, revealing a friendly and amiable smile. "Please enter."
Su Yu and the others entered and saw a young woman of about eighteen years of age sitting calmly in the box.
She had an oval face, almond-shaped eyes, a sharp nose, and red lips.
She was dressed in plain clothes, like an ordinary mortal creature.
Her appearance could not be considered beautiful, and her temperament was not outstanding. Her age was also much different from the housekeeper in Su Yu's imagination, but her entire person gave off an indescribable sense of comfort.
Her eyes were facing the door, and she looked up immediately. She said calmly, "Please take a seat."
Su Yu secretly sized up the woman. With a casual glance, he could not see through the woman's cultivation.
However, Empress Ziwei's pupils shrank. Although she was exceptionally arrogant, there was a hint of surprise on her face.
No one would have expected that the housekeeper of the Beixin King's Mansion would be a young girl.
She went straight to the point and asked directly, "Where is the item?"
Su Yu took out a crystal.
The young girl frowned slightly. "Are you teasing me?"
"Before you speak, you might as well take a look at the crystal first," Su Yu said.
The young girl hesitated for a moment, then grabbed the crystal and touched it with her delicate little finger. Immediately, an image burst forth.
In the image, Su Yu held a piece of Golden Flames Forbidden Wood in his hand, put it into a storage device, and then buried the storage device underground.
The image stopped abruptly, but it did not show where exactly it was.
The young girl's slightly furrowed brows relaxed, and she raised her eyes to look at Su Yu. "As expected, you are cautious."
With Su Yu's cautiousness, it was naturally impossible for him to bring the Golden Flames Forbidden Wood with him to visit in person.
After all, one of the parties to the transaction was the powerful Beixin King's Mansion. What if the Beixin King's Mansion killed him and robbed him?
"However, you can rest assured that the Beixin King's Mansion has always valued fairness. Since you really have the rumored item in the black market, then what should be given to you will naturally be given to you," the young girl said concisely. After that, she immediately clapped her hands. "Come in."
Swish!
The light and shadow behind her suddenly distorted, and a transparent figure slowly appeared.
Seeing this, Su Yu's pupils constricted. Space distortion?
That transparent figure was a Space Divine Path expert!
Empress Ziwei's expression changed, and she said cautiously, "A half-step Divine Warrior of Heaven and Earth!"
The distorted transparent figure ignored them and bowed to the young girl.
The young girl said indifferently, "Give them the prepared item."
Plop!
The distorted figure nodded, and with a flick of his finger, a bloody, hideous head floated in the air in front of Su Yu's dead body.
It was a creature that exuded extreme evil energy. Even though it was dead, its pale eyes still lingered with ferocious energy, making people feel extremely uneasy.
What was even more shocking was that, judging from the purity of the remaining divine energy in the head, it was also a half-step Divine Warrior of Heaven and Earth!
When he saw the true face of the head, Su Yu was slightly moved.
"The hundredth wanted criminal of the Dayu Civilization, Xie Lang?"
Xie Lang had been famous for a long time. As early as 60,000 years ago, his name had shaken the Dayu Empire.
He plotted to capture a princess of the Eastern Royal Family, and after deceiving her, he refined her into a special human-shaped elixir and ate it.
With that, he broke through the shackles and leaped from a peak overlord to a half-step Divine Warrior of Heaven and Earth.
At that time, the emperor of the empire was furious and ordered Xie Lang to be captured and killed.
However, Xie Lang was very cautious, good at sensing, and extremely cunning.
The empire had organized three assassination operations involving the Divine Warriors of Heaven and Earth, but Xie Lang had successfully escaped each time.
Now, 60,000 years had passed, and he was still at large. From time to time, he would commit evil deeds, and his methods were bloody and cruel.
Unexpectedly, Xie Lang was dead.
Who killed him? Even the Divine Warriors of Heaven and Earth had failed to kill him. The person who could kill Xie Lang must be very powerful.
"As a wanted criminal of the hundredth rank, if you carry his head, you will be able to enter the top 10,000 of the Yellow List." The young lady said, "We have fulfilled your request. So, where is the Golden Flames Forbidden Wood buried?"
Su Yu placed the Evil Wolf's head in the wooden box calmly, then passed it to Xue Guanyin. Only then did he say, "They can leave first. I will stay behind. After they successfully deliver the head to the Contribution Great Hall, I will inform you."
The young lady was a little displeased. "You do not trust the Beixin Manor?"
Su Yu's gaze flickered. "I do not trust you."
The Beixin Manor was trustworthy, but the housekeeper of the manor might not.
The young lady sighed. "Alright, please hurry!"
Xue Guanyin hesitated for a moment, then took the head. "Once it is done, I will inform you immediately."
Once the four of them successfully entered the Yellow List, it would be useless for the young lady to regret her decision.
The Contribution Palace was a direct organization of the Dayu Empire. It was located in any of the fiefdoms. Even the kings had no authority to interfere.
Xue Guanyin and the others carried the head and went to report. Su Yu, Xue Guanyin, Empress Ziwei, and the Heartless Saber Emperor worked together to kill Xie Lang.
The Contribution Palace would evaluate their contributions and determine their ranking.
Inside the private room, Su Yu waited calmly.
The young lady closed her eyes, not saying another word. She pretended that Su Yu was not in the room.
Su Yu could not be bothered to speak. He waited quietly.
Not long after, Xue Guanyin's message came. They had successfully entered the Yellow List!
"Alright, the deal is complete," Su Yu said.
The young lady opened her eyes. "Where is the Golden Flames Forbidden Wood?"
Su Yu smiled. "I don't have it."
Slap —
The young lady slammed her palm on the table. "You dare trick me? Or do you think it will be difficult for the Beixin Manor to kill four foreign residents? "
"Haha …" Su Yu laughed. He took out a piece of Golden Flames Forbidden Wood and placed it on the table. He then left.
He had not hidden it anywhere. It had been on him all along.
That crystal from before was just a decoy.
The young lady was stunned. She could not wrap her head around it. She muttered to herself, "The most dangerous place is the safest place? No one would think that he would carry the Golden Flames Forbidden Wood with him, right? "
Even she was not an exception.
"Seventh Princess, this person is teasing you. Do you want me to …" The distorted figure said in a deep, hoarse, and powerful voice.
The young lady shook her head. She held the Golden Flames Forbidden Wood. "This person is interesting. It would be a pity to kill him. What's more, his cultivation is too low. He could not become Brother Wangchen's guest."
"It would be a pity to abandon him. It would be tasteless." The young lady sighed.
The distorted figure mocked. "If this person knew that he had missed the chance to become Prince Chen Yu's guest, would he be troubled and depressed for the rest of his life?"
Shaking her head, the young lady said, "Let's go. Leave the Golden Flames Forbidden Wood to Brother Wangchen. Let's go see his new guest. Xie Lang was killed by this person alone. It's amazing. "
The distorted figure nodded. "He is indeed a rare talent. I remember that his name is Zhan Wushuang?"
The young lady nodded and floated away.
In the Contribution Hall.
Xue Guanyin and the other two had finally seen Su Yu.
"Here, for you." Xue Guanyin handed Su Yu an identity nameplate made of special minerals.
The name Su Yu was engraved on it.
The word "Huang" was engraved on the back.
It was a yellow-ranked identity nameplate.
"Haha, we are now the most valued top 10,000 contributors of the Dayu Empire." Xue Guanyin was pleased. "We can exchange for many things in the Contribution Hall."
"Let's try it now!" Empress Ziwei had been looking forward to it for a long time. She went straight to the exchange office in the Contribution Hall.
There were not many people at the exchange office. Everyone could be seen clearly at a glance.
Empress Ziwei immediately noticed a familiar figure.
"It's you!" Empress Ziwei's expression was cold.
The person looked old and was dressed in a black robe. He was the inspection officer at the entrance of the Dayu Empire.
Hearing something strange, the black-robed elder turned his head and immediately recognized Empress Ziwei and the others.
She was so beautiful that it was easy for people to remember her.
The black-robed elder was not surprised to see them here. He looked at the four of them and said, "You will be expelled in five days. Don't do anything stupid."
Empress Ziwei was furious. "Isn't it all your fault?"
If not for him, they would have left for the Great Void Sect long ago. Why would they wait until now?
"Haha …" The black-robed elder laughed disdainfully and ignored her. He walked forward lazily and took out a black token. The word "Xuan Zhi" was engraved on it. It was his lifeblood.
The black token was an ordinary contribution nameplate outside the Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow Contribution Halls.
"Senior, you are an honorable high-grade Black Iron contributor with 3,000 contribution points. What would you like to exchange for?" The shopkeeper at the exchange office was very polite.
As a Contribution Hall branch, most of the people here were low-grade Black Iron contributors. A small number were mid-grade Black Iron contributors. High-grade Black Iron contributors were few and far between. Xuan Zhi was a top-notch VIP.
"Exchange for two Heavenly Essence Pills," Xuan Zhi said calmly. His expression was calm, but it was not hard to hear his sense of superiority.
The people nearby also looked at him enviously.
"As expected of Lord Xuan Zhi. Heavenly Essence Pills are high-grade divine pills that can only be exchanged for 100 contribution points, and he got two at once!"
"Sigh, he is one of the top 1,000 contributors in the Northern Envelope Land. He can rank in the top 100,000 in the entire Dayu Empire. Such a big shot can casually exchange for some Heavenly Essence Pills."
…
After successfully exchanging for two Heavenly Essence Pills, the black-robed elder walked out with his hands clasped behind his back.
As he passed by Su Yu and the others, he glanced at them out of the corner of his right eye. His disdain could not be stronger.
Empress Ziwei could not hold it in any longer, but she obeyed Su Yu's warning and did not act recklessly.
Rolling her eyes, Empress Ziwei strode to the counter. She held the nameplate in her hand and slammed it on the counter. "I heard that you can exchange for anything at the exchange office?"
The shopkeeper said expressionlessly, "This is only for the contributors of the Four Great Lists. Ordinary contributors have limited exchanges."
His attention was still focused on Xuan Zhi, who had yet to leave. He did not notice that Empress Ziwei had casually replied to him with the nameplate she had slammed.
"Fine, I want to exchange for one thing now." Empress Ziwei laughed coldly. "I want you to remove that old thing, Xuan Zhi, from his official position!"
Actually, she could have asked the Contribution Hall to punish him.
Why did she only ask for his official position to be removed? She probably had other plans.
The shopkeeper came to his senses and shouted angrily, "Shut up, don't offend …"
