"Sigh, compared to your Young Miss, I am equally ashamed," Xing Jue replied with a gloomy look when he saw Elder Tan ridiculing him.
"Haha, brat, you're still as shameless as ever."
"Alright, let's get back to the main topic. Actually, I came here on the orders of my Young Miss. "Elder Tan shook his head helplessly when he saw Xing Jue acting like a clown.
"Oh? Little Man? What's the matter with her? "Hearing this, Xing Jue's expression changed slightly and he asked curiously.
Xing Jue was extremely grateful for Yu Shiman's help this time. He wanted to find a time to properly thank Yu Shiman, but now that Yu Shiman had something to tell him, Xing Jue became even more attentive.
"It's about the Bidding Conference. The Bidding Conference will be held in Fenghua Mi City. I'm sure you can guess that the finals will be related to the Bewitching Array of Fenghua Mi City," Elder Tan said slowly.
"Yes, I think everyone can guess it," Xing Jue replied firmly.
"You have the qualification token for the finals, so you don't have to participate in the rest of the competition. You can just wait for the finals."
"That's why I want to remind you that you must be careful of Ximen Yu, the owner of the other qualification token for the finals," Elder Tan reminded with a solemn expression.
"Ximen Yu? So he is called Ximen Yu? "
"Elder Tan, which power does this Ximen Yu belong to? Could it be that he is very strong? "
Hearing this, Xing Jue became a little excited. Xing Jue was very curious about the identity of the other qualification token holder, so he couldn't help but ask Elder Tan about it.
"Ai, this Ximen Yu is somewhat special, he doesn't belong to any power."
"And the reason why I was chosen by the Alliance Master and obtained the qualification token for the finals is because of the Alliance Master. That is because the grandfather of this Ximen Yu, 'Ximen Xing', helped our Union Palace to break the Soul Confusing Great Formation of Fenghua Mi City which we were unable to break for several hundred years. "Seeing Xing Jue asked, Elder Tan slowly explained.
"What? The Bewitching Formation has been broken? "Hearing this, Xing Jue's expression changed slightly as he asked in surprise.
"It hasn't been completely broken, but Battle-King level experts can now enter this bewitching formation." Upon seeing this, Elder Tan replied with a smile.
"So that's how it is. That Ximen Xing is actually able to break this Confusion Formation. Could he be the descendant of Fenghua Mi City?" At this moment, Xing Jue asked curiously.
"Yes, you guessed correctly. Ximen Xing and Ximen Yu are indeed the descendants of Fenghua Mi City. However, although they know the method to break the Great Maze Formation, they don't know the internal structure of the Great Maze Formation and the situation inside."
"According to Ximen Xing, this bewitching array was personally set up by the city lord of Magnificent Wind City. After the mysterious disappearance of the city lord, this bewitching array was activated."
"This Maze Formation used to be a palace that stored the important treasures of Fenghua Mi City. Therefore, this Maze Formation also contains the important treasures of Fenghua Mi City."
"Not only does it contain the treasures of Fenghua Mi City, but it also hides the secret of the city lord's disappearance. This time, he seems to be searching for the secret of his ancestor's disappearance, "Elder Tan slowly explained.
"Since they know the method to break the formation, why did they wait until today to break it?" Xing Jue asked in confusion.
"According to him, after the formation was activated, the remaining experts of Fenghua Mi City tried to break the Great Maze Formation. However, because the formation was too powerful and ancient, they couldn't break it."
"However, they calculated that the power of the Great Maze Formation would weaken after a thousand years. Therefore, the descendant of Fenghua Mi City decided to help us break the Great Maze Formation at this time," Elder Tan slowly explained.
"I see. Then, Elder Tan, since the Great Maze Formation contains the treasures of Fenghua Mi City, why didn't the Union Mansion just send experts in? Instead, they held this so-called auction?"
Upon hearing this, Xing Jue once again asked with a bellyful of questions. Then, he looked at Elder Tan with a sharp gaze.
"Haha, little friend Xing Jue. Back then, the Union Mansion occupied Fenghua Mi City not because we coveted the treasures left behind in Fenghua Mi City. "
"At the end of the day, even when Fenghua Mi City was at its peak, it was only a top force in the inner area. At that time, Fenghua Mi City was simply insignificant compared to the Union Mansion."
"The reason why the Union Mansion occupied Fenghua Mi City was because it was within the Union Mansion's sphere of influence. In other words, it was a product of the Union Mansion. Naturally, no one was allowed to enter and leave as they pleased." After hearing Xing Jue's question, Elder Tan suddenly smiled and explained to Xing Jue in detail.
"Haha, I'm overthinking it." After hearing Elder Tan's words, Xing Jue also felt a little embarrassed.
"Sigh, you can't be blamed. It's normal for you to be overthinking it."
"Come to think of it, it's a coincidence. The Union Mansion originally wanted to select some rising forces or talents with potential to join us. However, we didn't have a way to select them, and it just so happened that the Enchanting Great Formation was lifted at this time, so we simply took this opportunity to hold a bidding conference. From there, we could select a relatively talented newcomer and bring him into our Union Mansion. "
"However, I want to remind you that although Ximen Xing doesn't know about the situation inside the Enchanting Great Formation, it doesn't mean that he really doesn't know about it. Furthermore, his grandson, Ximen Yu, is also a candidate to participate in this bidding conference."
"Therefore, you must be careful of Ximen Yu after you enter the Great Bewitching Formation. Not only does he understand the mechanisms of the Great Bewitching Formation, he also possesses the strength of a high level Combat King." Right at this moment, Elder Tan once again said to Xing Jue with a grave expression.
"Mmm, rest assured, Elder Tan. Xing Jue will definitely keep this in mind." Hearing until here, Xing Jue faintly smiled and replied to Elder Tan.
As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will emerge victorious in a hundred battles. As his biggest enemy, Xing Jue at least knew some details about Ximen Yu. Moreover, as long as Ximen Yu hadn't reached the Combat Emperor realm, Xing Jue still wouldn't put him in his eyes.
"Mmm, I believe you know how to deal with it."
"Originally, my family's Miss was prepared to come and see you in person, but the conference is about to be held, and as the host, she is truly too busy to leave. Therefore, I, this old man, can only bring the message to you," Elder Tan said with a smile.
"Eh … Xiao Man is already shouldering such a heavy responsibility at such a young age?" Hearing until here, Xing Jue also realized that something was wrong, so he asked in puzzlement.
"Hehe, isn't it because of you that my family's Miss is willing to give up her time to cultivate and manage the clan's affairs in advance?" Seeing Xing Jue's bewildered appearance, Elder Tan faintly smiled and said.
"What? Because of me? Elder Tan, what the hell is going on? "After hearing Elder Tan's words, Xing Jue became even more excited.
One should know that what Xing Jue feared the most was owing favors to others. Now that Yu Shiman was helping Xing Jue like this, Xing Jue already felt very apologetic, but after hearing Elder Tan's words, he realized that there seemed to be some hidden story behind this matter.
"Ai, isn't it to help you obtain the other qualification token for the finals!!"
"However, you don't need to take it to heart. Originally, Miss is the successor favored by the Alliance Master. Now that she is familiarizing herself with the clan's affairs because of you, in fact, you are also helping her in disguise."
"Speaking of which, even the Alliance Master can't do anything about that stubborn temper of Miss, but she is willing to help you. Ai, but this might also be a good thing." Seeing Xing Jue was somewhat excited, Elder Tan comforted him with a smile.
"That girl, why is she so silly?" Although Elder Tan's words made sense, Xing Jue couldn't help but blame himself.
"Alright, it has already happened, so you don't need to think too much about it. You should prepare well so that you can maintain your peak condition for the finals. As long as you can obtain the championship, my Miss' efforts will not be in vain." Seeing Xing Jue's reaction, Elder Tan advised again.
After chatting with Xing Jue for a while, Elder Tan stood up and left. Xing Jue even personally saw Elder Tan out of the palace complex.
"Looks like the Alliance Master's strength is indeed not simple. If anyone dares to fly in this area, they might be seen as an enemy of the Alliance Master, right?" Looking at the carriage that Elder Tan was riding in, Xing Jue sighed.
Ever since he entered the Fenghua Mi City, Xing Jue had never seen a Battle-King expert flying in the air. The reason why no one dared to do so was because the Alliance Master had set a rule that no one was allowed to fly in the air. Although he didn't understand the meaning of this rule, it indirectly reflected the strength of the Alliance Master.
After sighing with emotion, Xing Jue didn't rush back to his palace. Instead, he leisurely strolled around the Fenghua Mi City.
Although tomorrow was the important day of the auction, it didn't have much to do with Xing Jue. Therefore, Xing Jue wanted to stroll around the center of the Fenghua Mi City. After hearing Elder Tan's words, Xing Jue became even more interested in the Bewitching Formation.
It just so happened that the palace complex where Xing Jue hosted the people of the auction was located in the center of the Fenghua Mi City. Therefore, even though Xing Jue was rather leisurely on his journey, Xing Jue arrived at the Bewitching Formation in just half an hour.
"It's actually so tightly guarded. It looks like I can only go in and see what's going on during the finals."
However, after approaching the Bewitching Formation, Xing Jue helplessly discovered that not only was there a powerful barrier around the Bewitching Formation, but there were also many experts from the Alliance Master guarding it. Not to mention going in and taking a look, Xing Jue couldn't even see what the Bewitching Formation looked like.
However, just as Xing Jue was about to return home in disappointment, he suddenly discovered that a shadow was following him. At first, Xing Jue thought that the shadow was just going the same way as him, but now, Xing Jue was certain that the shadow was following him.
