"Asura Palace's Palace Master, Xing Jue!"
"Gu Daoxuan's Young Master, Gu Liang!"
At this moment, an elder beside Yu Lei suddenly shouted, "Step forward and listen to the decree."
"Subordinate Xing Jue greets Lord Alliance Chief!"
"This one, Gu Liang, greets Lord Alliance Head." Upon seeing this, Xing Jue and Gu Liang hurriedly came before Yu Lei and respectfully greeted him.
"Xing Jue, becoming the leader of a force at such a young age, and being able to defeat all the young geniuses in the auction and become the champion, it seems like you do have something extraordinary about you. No wonder Xiao Man thinks so highly of you!"
When Xing Jue came forward, Yu Lei took a closer look at Xing Jue, then said with a slightly praising tone.
"As the champion of the auction, the Union Palace will definitely focus on nurturing your Asura Palace. I have specially ordered my men to pick out a few good locations for you in the inner area. You can choose one of them as the headquarters of the Asura Palace."
"Pu!"
While Yu Lei was speaking, the elder beside him also waved his sleeve. A map flew out from his sleeve and slowly unfolded in front of Xing Jue. This map was the map of the inner area that Yu Shiman showed to Xing Jue yesterday. Currently, there were a few locations marked on the map.
Looking at the locations marked on the map, Xing Jue pretended to take a few careful glances, then slightly nodded to indicate that he had chosen the location.
"Swoosh!" Seeing this, the elder waved his sleeve again, and the map instantly merged back into his hand.
"Xing Jue, where have you chosen?" Yu Lei gently stroked his short black beard, his eyes locked onto Xing Jue.
"Replying Lord Alliance Chief, Xing Jue already has a location in mind, but it is not one of the locations marked on the map." Xing Jue cupped his hands and said respectfully.
"Oh?"
After hearing Xing Jue's words, Yu Lei raised his eyebrows and his eyes flickered. Xing Jue's words caused everyone in the hall to be shocked. Even Yu Shiman's brows were tightly knitted.
As the upper echelons of the Alliance Mansion, they understood the Alliance Master's character very well. He was an absolute hegemon. Only his words would be listened to, and he would never allow anyone to refute him. Xing Jue's actions had clearly violated the Alliance Master's taboo.
Therefore, at this moment, some people began to cast sympathetic glances at Xing Jue, while others were gloating and waiting to watch a good show.
"Xing Jue, which one have you chosen? Why don't you tell me? " However, to everyone's surprise, Yu Lei didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled and asked Xing Jue politely.
"Palace Master, the place that Xing Jue has chosen is the Fenghua Mi City." Seeing this, Xing Jue answered straightforwardly.
"What? Fenghua Mi City? "
"It's the Fenghua Mi City?"
This time, Xing Jue's words also caused an uproar among the crowd. Even Yu Shiman and Elder Zhao couldn't help but feel worried for Xing Jue. Gu Liang, who was beside Xing Jue, even looked at Xing Jue with a complicated gaze.
"Hehe, Xing Jue."
"Actually, you're the champion of this auction. Logically speaking, you have the right to choose which land you want."
After hearing Xing Jue's words, Yu Lei was startled, but he still said calmly, "However, the Fenghua Mi City already belongs to someone else. Before you, I've already promised it to Gu Daoxuan. This Young Master Gu Liang beside you is the person that Gu Daoxuan will be responsible for taking over the control of the Fenghua Mi City's Bewitching Formation."
"Alliance Master, it's not that I'm greedy for the Fenghua Mi City. It's just that the control of the Bewitching Formation is tightly connected to my soul. I can't take it away." Seeing this, Xing Jue looked rather helpless.
"Nonsense. I've never heard of any formation that's connected to a person's soul." At this moment, Gu Liang retorted angrily.
Seeing this, Xing Jue glanced at Gu Liang beside him and said calmly, "The mysteriousness of the Bewitching Formation can't be compared to any formation you've seen before."
"You …" Gu Liang's expression changed drastically after hearing Xing Jue's words. However, he didn't know how to refute it. Then, he looked at Yu Lei and waited for the Alliance Master's decision.
"Gu Liang, a truly powerful formation isn't completely controlled by a person. Because the formation itself has life, it will indeed choose the person it likes to control the formation."
"However, I didn't expect the Bewitching Formation to have reached such a level." Yu Lei let out a long sigh, looking a little surprised.
At this moment, everyone present was shocked. It was the first time they heard of such a formation. Gu Liang's face was ashen and he was at a loss.
"Alliance Master, even if there really is such a powerful formation, we can't just listen to Xing Jue's side of the story and hand over the Fenghua Mi City to him, right?"
"Moreover, Alliance Master has already agreed to hand over the Fenghua Mi City to Gu Daoxuan. If we hand it over to the Asura Palace now, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of the subordinate forces." At this moment, Elder Yu suddenly said.
"Elder Yu, do you have any good ideas?" Yu Lei raised his eyebrows and asked calmly.
"Alliance Master, why don't I personally go to the Fenghua Mi City with Palace Master Xing Jue and let Xing Jue activate the Bewitching Formation? If it's really as Palace Master Xing Jue said, he can activate the Bewitching Formation directly through his soul without using any other tools, then we'll make a decision when the time comes." We will make a decision when the time comes. "Elder Yu said slowly.
After hearing Elder Yu's words, Yu Lei nodded in agreement and asked Xing Jue, "Palace Master Xing Jue, what do you think?"
"Alliance Master, I don't think there's any need to go through so much trouble." Xing Jue smiled and said calmly.
"What? Palace Master Xing Jue, are you afraid? "Elder Yu asked impatiently.
Not only Elder Yu, almost everyone present looked at Xing Jue curiously. Even Yu Lei, who was standing above, had a questioning look on his face. As for Gu Liang, who was standing beside Xing Jue, his face was filled with schadenfreude.
"Afraid? What do you mean by afraid? "
"It's just that the Bewitching Formation is connected to my soul. Activating the Bewitching Formation only requires a single thought from me. There are no restrictions at all."
"Therefore, there's no need to go to Fenghua Mi City. As long as I'm here, I can control the Bewitching Formation," Xing Jue snorted coldly.
Xing Jue's words made everyone gasp. It was the first time they had heard of such a method of controlling the formation.
In fact, the key was needed to activate the Bewitching Formation. Although the key was connected to Xing Jue's soul, it was easy to cut off the connection. It all depended on whether Xing Jue was willing or not.
Currently, Xing Jue was only using this matter as a bargaining chip to fight for Fenghua Mi City. After all, Fenghua Mi City was a fat piece of meat and Xing Jue would not let it go easily.
As for activating the Bewitching Formation, Xing Jue could indeed do it regardless of the distance. However, he could only activate the defensive effect of the Bewitching Formation and could not activate illusions.
"Since that's the case, why don't you activate the Bewitching Formation now, Xing Jue? Once the Bewitching Formation is activated, the elders of Fenghua Mi City will definitely send a message to you. This will prove that what you said is true," Yu Lei said with a faint smile after hearing Xing Jue's words.
"Understood." Upon seeing this, Xing Jue bowed deeply and replied.
Then, with a thought from Xing Jue, the key in his storage bracelet began to shine with a dazzling radiance. At this moment, the monkey that was wandering in the key also began to take a strange posture as if it was activating the Bewitching Formation.
"Buzz ~"
At the same time, at the center of Fenghua Mi City, which was millions of miles away from the Union Residence, a dark radiance suddenly shrouded everything. This appearance was exactly the same as the original Bewitching Formation. It was the complete form of the Bewitching Formation that Ximen Xing had yet to break.
"Reporting to Lord Alliance Master, the Bewitching Formation has been activated," Xing Jue said respectfully as he sensed that the Bewitching Formation had been activated.
"Yes." Seeing this, Yu Lei also responded indifferently.
After that, everyone shifted their gaze towards the entrance of the hall. Whether Xing Jue's words were true or not would be revealed very soon.
Not long after Xing Jue's words sounded out, an old man swiftly walked into the hall. When this old man appeared, everyone's faces changed. Yu Shiman and Elder Zhao's faces involuntarily revealed a smile. That was because he was the Communication Elder of the Union Residence.
"Reporting to Lord Alliance Master, something has happened in Fenghua Mi City." When the old man walked to the center of the hall, he directly came before Yu Lei and respectfully reported to him.
"Haha, Communication Elder, has the Bewitching Formation been activated?" Yu Lei asked with a smile.
"This … Lord Alliance Master, how did you know?" After hearing Yu Lei's words, the old man was extremely shocked.
"Hahahaha, Xing Jue, I really should congratulate you. Looks like you're really lucky to be able to become the controller of such a Bewitching Formation." At this moment, Yu Lei suddenly laughed happily.
Everyone present couldn't help looking at Xing Jue with complicated gazes because they had the same feeling in their hearts. Just like what Yu Lei had said, it was indeed Xing Jue's luck to be able to become the controller of such a Bewitching Formation. However, this indirectly reflected a problem, which was that Xing Jue had extraordinary potential or something that stood out from the masses.
"Lord Alliance Master, even if Palace Master Xing Jue's soul is connected to the Bewitching Formation, it only proves that he didn't lie. We can't hand over a treasure like the Fenghua Mi City to an outer Asura Palace just because of this, right? "At this moment, Elder Yu spoke again.
"Presumptuous! Elder Yu, do you think that my father doesn't have the ability to make decisions? Don't forget who you are! "
Suddenly, Yu Shiman, who had been silent for a long time, stood up, pointed at Elder Yu and scolded him angrily.
