Yu Shiman's words were extremely sharp and merciless. Forget about the ugly expression on Elder Yu's face, even the surrounding elders sucked in a breath of cold air.
However, due to Yu Shiman's special status, Elder Yu did not dare to retort. All he could do was lower his head, clench his teeth and endure the raging anger in his heart.
"Little Man, how can you speak to Elder Yu in such a manner?" At this moment, Yu Lei rolled his eyes at Yu Shiman.
"Humph." Upon seeing this, Yu Shiman curled her small mouth and let out a cold snort. After which, she did not say anything else.
"However, Elder Yu, you have indeed spoken a little too much today."
"Even if your relationship with Gu Yuan is special, don't forget that you are an elder of the Alliance Mansion. Aren't you being too ostentatious by siding with Gu Daoxuan in the matter of the Fenghua Mi City?" Yu Lei shifted his sharp eyes towards Elder Yu and spoke with a faint smile.
"Eh …"
"This old man is foolish. I hope that Alliance Chief can forgive me."
At this moment, Yu Lei's body involuntarily trembled as he hurriedly spoke in a humble manner. At this moment, large amounts of cold sweat continuously flowed down his forehead.
If he still dared to be angry because of Yu Shiman's words … However, Yu Lei's words terrified Elder Yu. As a high ranking elder of the Alliance Mansion, he had witnessed Yu Lei's iron-fisted methods many times. Therefore, even though Yu Lei had a smile on his face, Elder Yu could still sense the anger in his words.
"Gu Liang, the control of this bewitching formation is currently linked to Xing Jue's soul. If you forcefully cut it off, it might cause harm to Xing Jue. I will definitely not allow such a thing to happen."
"This way, even if I hand the Fenghua Mi City to you, Gu Daoxuan, it will not be complete."
"Why don't we do this? You can choose a piece of land that was originally given to the Asura Hall on behalf of your father." At this moment, Yu Lei spoke to Gu Liang in a faint voice.
"This …"
After hearing Yu Lei's words, Gu Liang's face involuntarily trembled, but he did not reply. It wasn't just Yu Lei, even Xing Jue was slightly surprised. Because the meaning behind Yu Lei's words was very clear. He intended to hand over the management of Fenghua Mi City to Xing Jue. What surprised Xing Jue was that Yu Lei was actually on his side.
Previously, Xing Jue did not have a good impression of Yu Lei because he had deliberately set up a trap to test Xing Jue's ability. At the very least, Xing Jue did not dare to compliment this Alliance Master's scheming. However, at this moment, Xing Jue's view changed.
At this moment, all the elders present couldn't help but cast surprised gazes at Xing Jue. Elder Yu, on the other hand, clenched his fists tightly. However, he dared not say anything and could only endure what was happening in front of him.
"Alliance Master, to be honest, I, Gu Daoxuan, do not really care about the control of this bewitching formation. After all, Palace Master Xing Jue is also a member of the Alliance Palace. There is no difference between him controlling it or me controlling it."
"Therefore, even if Palace Master Xing Jue controls the bewitching formation, it doesn't matter. I, Gu Daoxuan, am still willing to choose the Fenghua Mi City." After a moment of silence, Gu Liang suddenly said to Yu Lei with a forced smile.
However, after hearing Gu Liang's words, Xing Jue could not help but smile. He knew that Gu Liang would not give up on the treasured land of the Fenghua Mi City so easily.
"Alliance Master, the bewitching formation is where the value of the Fenghua Mi City lies."
"Without the bewitching formation, the Fenghua Mi City isn't complete. If we can't control the bewitching formation, we won't be able to make full use of the Fenghua Mi City even if we occupy it. That would be a waste of a treasured land," Xing Jue said respectfully to Yu Lei after smiling.
"Xing Jue, do you mean that the Fenghua Mi City will only belong to you, Xing Jue?"
"How dare you say that you're not greedy for the Fenghua Mi City. If you're not greedy, why do you have to say so much nonsense?" Gu Liang was even more furious.
"I just don't want the resources of the Alliance Palace to be put to the best use. After all, we're all working for the Alliance Palace, so we should consider the overall strength of the Alliance Palace." Xing Jue smiled and explained slowly.
"You …"
At first, Gu Liang thought that Xing Jue would fly into a rage because of his accusation, which would expose Xing Jue's ambition of occupying the Fenghua Mi City. However, to Gu Liang's surprise, not only did Xing Jue not say anything, he even started to talk about principles. Furthermore, Xing Jue's righteous words rendered Gu Liang speechless, and he didn't know how to refute.
"Haha, Xing Jue, actually, what you and Gu Liang said makes sense."
"Logically speaking, I've promised to give the Fenghua Mi City to Gu Daoxuan. As long as Gu Daoxuan doesn't mind the bewitching formation being controlled by you, I should give it to them."
"However, what you said is also very true. Of course, the things that belong to the Alliance Palace can be used to their fullest potential. That's the most valuable thing."
"However, I do have an idea right now. You and Gu Liang are the pillars of the Alliance Palace's younger generation. Why don't the two of you represent Gu Daoxuan and have a spar with the Asura Palace? The winner will get the Fenghua Mi City. What do the two of you think? "At this moment, Yu Lei said with great interest.
"Alright, we'll do as you say, Lord Alliance Master." Gu Liang was overjoyed when he heard Yu Lei's words. He agreed without hesitation.
Gu Liang wasn't the only one. Even Elder Yu, who had been frowning, revealed a joyous expression at this moment. Gu Liang's battle prowess was well-known. Even in the entire Union Palace, there was practically no one in the same generation as him who could match up to him.
Even though Xing Jue was the champion of this auction, Elder Yu didn't think that Xing Jue would be a match for Gu Liang. It wasn't just Elder Yu who thought so. Almost everyone who knew Gu Liang had the same thought.
"Xing Jue, what do you think?" After Gu Liang agreed, Yu Lei turned his gaze to Xing Jue.
"Since Lord Alliance Master has said so, Xing Jue has no objections," Xing Jue replied to Yu Lei with a faint smile as he looked at Gu Liang, who was taking pleasure in his misfortune.
"Alright, this is a good opportunity for me to see which of the two of you is the number one rising star of our Union Mansion." Seeing that Xing Jue had agreed, Yu Lei laughed heartily.
Outside the Alliance Palace's main hall was an extremely vast plaza. At this moment, Xing Jue and Gu Liang were standing at the center of the plaza. Yu Lei, Yu Shiman, and the other Elders were standing in front of the main hall, watching the two of them. In order to prevent unnecessary damage, Yu Lei had personally set up a huge defensive boundary for Xing Jue and Gu Liang.
Looking at the transparent yet firm boundary that was like a water ripple, Xing Jue couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. To be able to set up such a boundary so easily by a High Grade Combat Emperor, he was indeed worthy of being the existence closest to the Combat Emperor realm.
"Hey, you better be careful later. I won't be merciful. It's fine if I injure you, but don't blame me if I accidentally kill you." At this moment, Gu Liang had an evil smile on his face as he coldly shouted at Xing Jue.
"Oh? Since you are so confident, why don't we have a bet? "Seeing this, Xing Jue raised his eyebrows slightly and replied in a high-spirited manner.
"What bet? Say it. "Gu Liang asked straightforwardly.
"If you can injure me, I will call you Big Brother from today onwards. But if you can't injure me and instead get injured by me, I don't mind if you are a few years older than me. From today onwards, whenever we meet, you will call me Big Brother. What do you think? "Xing Jue said with an evil smile.
"Hmph, it's a deal."
"Bang."
At this moment, Gu Liang turned his wrist and a silver long spear appeared in his hand. This long spear was several meters long. Although it didn't have a trace of brilliance on its surface, an extremely powerful energy was flowing within the long spear. When this long spear landed on the ground, even the boundary that Yu Lei had personally set up was shaken and rippled. The energy contained within this long spear was self-evident.
"It's actually a Weighted Silver Spear?"
When this long spear appeared, almost all the elders on the scene couldn't help but be shocked. Some of them even sucked in a breath of cold air. Even Yu Shi Man's small face couldn't help but wrinkle.
"Big Brother Xing Jue, this long spear is called the Weighted Silver Spear. It's Gu Daoxuan's Zhen Xuan treasure, a high rank treasure."
"Moreover, compared to other high rank treasures, this Weighted Silver Spear's energy is concentrated inside. Its close combat power is extremely tyrannical. So, do not engage in close combat with it. Maintain a long distance." At this moment, Yu Shi Man's warning voice suddenly and slowly entered Xing Jue's ears.
"A close combat high rank treasure? That's really rare. But close combat is also my forte. "After hearing Yu Shi Man's words, Xing Jue smiled faintly.
"Buzz."
Then, with a turn of Xing Jue's wrist, a one meter wide, one meter long, dark purple, edgeless sword appeared in Xing Jue's hand.
"Bang."
The moment the long sword landed on the ground, a ripple even larger than the Weighted Silver Spear surged out from the boundary below. This was the Blades of Asura that Xing Jue had personally refined using the Asura Divine Metal.
This Blades of Asura was close to a high rank treasure. Because of the Starlight Silver Ring, Xing Jue hadn't been able to put it to use. But today, it had the chance to display its splendor. Although the true attack power of the Blades of Asura was not at the level of a high rank treasure, when it came to swinging it, its hardness was definitely not any treasure.
"What a magnificent sword! Could it also be a high-grade Prized artefact?"
"I didn't expect Xing Jue to have such a treasure."
When Xing Jue's Blades of Asura appeared, the crowd was even more shocked. If the Blades of Asura's gorgeous appearance was already a visual shock to the crowd, then the Blades of Asura's indestructible body was even more shocking.
