"Yay! Great! I have finally broken through." Suddenly, Yao Xinyan's closed eyes opened abruptly. Then, she jumped up and down excitedly. The joy in her heart was self-evident.
"Hey, hey, hey. Can you be quiet? It wasn't easy for me to build up my emotions, but you destroyed it all of a sudden." Just at this moment, Xing Jue slowly opened his eyes and rolled his eyes at Yao Xinyan, who was jumping with joy.
"Pfft! Pfft! What emotions?"
"This is called emotion. Are you not happy that you have broken through to the High-Grade Combat Emperor?" Yao Xinyan pouted her mouth and said indignantly.
"Good, good, good. This is what you call emotion." Xing Jue spread out his hands and acted as if he didn't want to argue with her.
For the past half a month, Xing Jue had been bickering with Yao Xinyan almost every day. Now, he already had a clear response, which was to take the initiative to surrender.
"But girl, I really have to thank you this time."
"If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have been able to come here, and I wouldn't have been able to break through to the High-Grade Combat Emperor." Suddenly, Xing Jue said to Yao Xinyan with a solemn expression.
"Eh …" Xing Jue's' thank you 'caused Yao Xinyan to be startled. Obviously, she wasn't used to Xing Jue's sudden politeness.
"Hehe, didn't you say that we are comrades in the same boat, grasshoppers tied to the same rope?"
"With such an intimate relationship, it's not right for you to be polite to me." Yao Xinyan, who was also a man, said with a smile.
"Heh, the essence of this cave has been stolen by you and me. If the Holy Pill Clan knows about this, they will never forgive us."
At this moment, Xing Jue slowly stood up, turned his head and said to Yao Xinyan with a smile, "After all, this is a treasure they used to concoct a pill. So, we should leave this place as soon as possible to avoid any unforeseen circumstances."
"En."
This time, Yao Xinyan didn't refute Xing Jue. Instead, she nodded her head obediently. This rare obedient look of hers was quite endearing.
Soon after, the two of them hurriedly got up and left. With the help of the seven-colored handkerchief's strange effect, Xing Jue and the other two finally safely left the Sacred Dan Clan's branch. Yao Xinyan headed straight for the Demon Refinement Tribe while Xing Jue headed straight for Fenghua Mi City.
During this trip, Xing Jue originally wanted to help Wang Yanran enter the Sacred Pill Clan, but he didn't expect to meet Yao Xinyan, this lucky star, who indirectly helped her reach the high-level Combat Emperor realm. With this, there was no need for the Asura Palace to wait any longer.
When Xing Jue returned to the Fenghua Mi City, he gathered Old Cang, Old Feng, Xiaolong, Uncle Pan, Su Lin'er, Leopard King and the others to drink to their heart's content. After such a long time of living together and fighting side by side, these people had already become very close to each other, like family.
"Hahaha, this is great. I didn't expect master, Xiaolong and Leopard King to have broken through to the Combat Emperor realm, and the Heroic Emperor has broken through to the mid-grade Combat Emperor realm. This is really great news." At this moment, Xing Jue was filled with excitement when he heard the news that was relayed to him.
Because he was too busy with the previous matters, Xing Jue had neglected the strength of Xiaolong, Leopard King and the others. Today, after chatting with them, he found out that everyone's strength had increased after entering the Grand Sky Domain.
Old Feng, Xiaolong and the Leopard King, who had been stuck at the high-grade Combat King realm for many years, had broken through to the Combat Emperor realm. As for the Heroic Emperor, he had broken through to the mid-grade Combat Emperor realm.
Even the number one genius of the Boundless Sea, Uncle Pan, had reached the high-grade Combat King realm within these few years. Although his strength was sealed by Xing Jue's father, it had affected his talent. However, it was already very impressive for him to reach such a level in just a few years. From this, it could be seen that Uncle Pan's reputation as the number one genius of the Boundless Sea wasn't undeserved.
"Oh right, where is the Heroic Emperor? What is he busy with? Why isn't he here yet? "At this moment, Xing Jue looked at the entrance of the palace and asked curiously. Logically speaking, they had been chatting for a while. Even if the Heroic Emperor had something urgent to deal with, he should have arrived by now.
"It's like this, Xing Jue. A few days ago, we learned that a city with an ancient teleportation array is going to be auctioned in the center of the Grand Sky Domain. The power that owns that city has shrunk in recent years, and they want to leave the center of the Grand Sky Domain to fight in the inner region. Therefore, the starting bid for that city isn't very high."
"Currently, our Asura Palace has the strength to enter the center of the Towering Sky Region. Therefore, the Heroic Emperor will represent our Asura Palace to go there and bid for that city in one fell swoop. Although that city is a little ancient, it's still a good choice for our Asura Palace to enter the center of the Towering Sky Region."
"Previously, because you were focusing on accompanying Yanran, I didn't tell you about it. Now that I think about it, the Heroic Emperor has been gone for quite some time, and he should be back soon." Hearing Xing Jue's question, Old Feng explained with a smile.
"So many things have happened during this period of time. The heavens are really on my side." After hearing Old Feng's words, Xing Jue became very excited.
Xing Jue had long planned to enter the center of the Grand Sky Domain, and once he reached the Advanced Combat Emperor realm, he would be able to do so immediately. This time, he wanted to take this opportunity to tell everyone about it so that they could discuss it in detail. He didn't expect that while he was busy with Wang Yanran, Old Feng and the others had already found an opportunity to make their move. This saved him a lot of time.
"Bang."
"Palace Master, bad news!"
Right at this moment, the tightly shut door of the palace was suddenly opened. A middle-aged man ran in hastily, and his face was filled with panic.
"What happened? Tell me! "
When Xing Jue and the others saw this man, they couldn't help but frown. This man was the elder in charge of the Communication Palace in Fenghua Mi City. For him to be in such a hurry, it was highly possible that something big had happened.
"It's Lord Ying Huang. Something happened in the ancient city." The man said nervously.
This time, the Ying Huang had brought enough capital to participate in the auction. They were prepared to take over the ancient city in one fell swoop. Although the ancient city was located in the center of the Grand Sky Domain, it wasn't a flourishing place. Therefore, everything went smoothly, and they finally obtained control of the ancient city.
However, who would have thought that right after the Ying Huang took over the ancient city, a faction called the Sect of Dragon and Tiger suddenly led an army to the Grand Sky Domain. Not only did they take over the ancient city, they even captured the Ying Huang and the others. They even threatened the Asura Palace to pay a huge ransom for them, otherwise, they would kill all the experts of the Asura Palace.
"Bang!"
"The Sect of Dragon and Tiger is courting death."
After listening to the man's story, Xing Jue stood up abruptly and smashed the table in front of him into pieces. An invisible killing intent was released from his body, and the anger in his heart was self-evident.
"Xing Jue, you … you have reached the Advanced Combat Emperor realm?"
At this moment, the old man was shocked by the power that Xing Jue had displayed. Not only him, but everyone else also looked at Xing Jue in astonishment.
"En." Hearing the question from the old man and the others, Xing Jue nodded his head in agreement. Then, he briefly told them about his encounter with Yao Xinyan and how he entered the forbidden area of the Sacred Pill Clan.
"Haha, you are really lucky. Not only did you get to know the girl of the Demon Refinement Clan, you even got to enter the forbidden area of the Sacred Pill Clan."
"That Battle Essence is a precious pill of the Sacred Pill Clan. It has always been heavily guarded, and only a few people know its location. I didn't expect you to find a loophole this time. Haha, good, good!"
After listening to Xing Jue's story, the old man laughed excitedly. Not only the old man, but everyone present also revealed an unconcealable joy. The Advanced Combat Emperor was an existence that was closest to the Combat Emperor realm, and Xing Jue had actually reached this level in such a short period of time. How could they not be excited?
At this moment, compared to everyone's excitement, Xiao Long's face was filled with a special emotion. It was anticipation and hope, as if he had suddenly seen the light after being trapped in a dark valley for a long time.
"Since you have reached this level, I will leave this important task to you."
"This is also a good opportunity to let those miscellaneous powers in the center of the Towering Sky Region know that the Asura Palace is not a pushover." The old man looked at Xing Jue and said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I'll let that bullshit Dragon Tiger Sect know the true strength of the Asura Palace. I'll let them know the consequences of messing with the Asura Palace." At this moment, a strong killing intent once again emerged from Xing Jue's fierce eyes.
After that, Xing Jue led a group of experts of the Asura Palace to the ancient city. This time, Xing Jue specifically asked Xiao Long and the Thunder Leopard King to go with him, while the others stayed in the Fenghua Mi City.
At this moment, a grand banquet was being held in the main palace of the ancient city. Hundreds of Combat Emperors were drinking and enjoying the performance of the beauties in the center of the palace. The atmosphere was very lively.
In the center of the palace, there was a strange light pillar. A man covered in blood was tied to the light pillar. This man was the Heroic Emperor. However, the Heroic Emperor's aura was extremely weak at this moment, and he had fallen into a deep sleep.
"Haha, big brother, I have to thank you this time."
"I didn't expect the Asura Palace to be so wealthy. If we were to bid openly, my Evil Wind Pavilion would be no match for them."
"However, big brother's action is really domineering. Not only did it save us a lot of money, it also made the Asura Palace suffer a great loss. This is really satisfying."
At this moment, a tall and skinny man with goatee and slanted eyebrows said with a smile on his face. Surprisingly, this man was also an Intermediate Combat Emperor.
He was the master of the Evil Wind Pavilion, which was a nearby power. He was the biggest competitor of the Asura Palace in the ancient city's auction. However, he was defeated by the Asura Palace in terms of financial resources. Therefore, he was filled with hatred.
However, the previous leader of the power in the ancient city was also a High-Grade Combat Emperor. Therefore, he didn't dare to act rashly. However, after the city was handed over to the Asura Palace, he quickly asked for help from his sworn brother, the leader of the Dragon Tiger Sect, Martial Dragon.
