To make sure, Duan Lingtian even went to Moqi Jue, the Golden Seat Elder of the Moqi Family, to make a deal with him. He symbolically obtained something from Moqi Jue. However, Duan Lingtian discovered that the Moqi Family Elder who was extremely hostile to him yesterday was acting as though nothing had happened. Although there was no smile on his face and he seemed indifferent, there was no longer any hostility in his eyes.
"Elder Zhen."
Duan Lingtian looked for Zhen Pingfan again. "I feel that something is amiss … The people from the Moqi Family, especially Moqi Jue, are acting very strangely."
In his opinion, the people from the Moqi Family were fine since this matter did not concern them.
However, as the people involved, Moqi Jue and Moqi Hong, under normal circumstances, it was impossible for them to act as though nothing had happened the next day.
"There's nothing strange about it."
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Zhen Pingfan smiled faintly. "After they returned yesterday, they had already vented their frustrations. Moqi Hong has lived for almost 10,000 years, let alone Moqi Jue. Don't tell me that he still hasn't figured out that spilled water can't be undone?
What's the point of being as unresigned and arrogant as yesterday?
If you go overboard in front of others and something happens to you in the future, won't Moqi Jue be worried that Chunyang School will target him?
It's better for him to act as though nothing has happened and wait for an opportunity to kill you in one strike. At that time, even if Chunyang School suspects him, they won't be able to stand their ground if they don't have any evidence. After all, he acted as though he had buried the hatchet with you earlier. "
Zhen Pingfan said.
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed slightly. He did not think of it that way.
His instincts told him that the Half-Soul High-grade Divine Weapon was very important to Moqi Jue. It might even be more important than his wife. Now that he and Zhen Pingfan had tricked him, he would definitely not be nice to them.
He did not expect Moqi Jue to be so patient.
Pretending to bury the hatchet, he might stab you in the back at any time!
"It seems like I really have to be careful …"
Duan Lingtian murmured.
In fact, Duan Lingtian could understand Moqi Jue's intentions. After all, he had encountered many ruthless people throughout his journey from the Mundane Planes to this day.
However, as time passed, he had forgotten about it.
Right now, he was fully focused on increasing his strength and the Seven Prefectures' Grand Banquet. Therefore, when he saw Moqi Jue acting as though nothing had happened, he didn't think too much about it.
Now, after listening to Zhen Pingfan's explanation, he suddenly understood.
Of course, he wouldn't be careless even if Moqi Jue didn't make him feel any hostility towards him today. After all, he'd experienced too many schemes and schemes since he'd come all the way here from the mundane planes.
The human heart is unpredictable and impossible to guard against.
In this kind of situation, before he had the strength, he would hide in the abyss. Once he had the strength, he would kill the other party to prevent future troubles!
Along the way, he had done the same.
Especially after arriving at the Mystic Handle Land in the Realm of Gods, he felt as though he was treading on thin ice. It was just like when he was in the Linghu family. He had to sneak out to refine a peak divine pill.
He was worried that the Hidden Fog Sect's people or even the Tianlong Clan's inner sect elder, Kuang Tianzheng, would make a move on him after learning that he had left.
At that time, once he was targeted, he would be finished.
…
A few days of the trade fair passed in the blink of an eye.
During this trade fair, Duan Lingtian had purchased many things. Of course, most of the valuable things were exchanged for by Zhen Pingfan using divine crystals.
As for himself, he didn't pay much.
"Elder Zhen, when are we leaving?"
On the last day of the trade fair, Duan Lingtian sent a voice transmission to Zhen Pingfan on the way back to Chunyang School's temporary residence in the Seven Kills Valley.
At this time, it wasn't difficult for Duan Lingtian to see that the leaders of the other branches of Chunyang School would occasionally look at Moqi Jue, the leader of the Moqi family, who was not far away, returning to their temporary residence in the Seven Kills Valley. Their eyes were filled with dread.
Clearly, everyone was under pressure.
After all, this time, Chunyang School had cheated Moqi Jue of half a soul high-grade divine artifact!
Although they were on the same side, and on the surface, they would say that it was a fair bet … but in their hearts, they still felt that it was a scam.
From Zhen Pingfan's initial provocation to Duan Lingtian's cooperation, Duan Lingtian's pretending to be 'tough on the outside' and 'nervous on the inside' to confuse Moqi Jue and his grandson …
All of this was a trap that the two of them had dug for Moqi Jue!
In the end, Moqi Jue, the Golden Seat Elder of the Moqi family and an intermediate God Emperor, had been cheated by them.
If they had been cheated, they would not have let the matter rest.
Therefore, two days ago, they had communicated with Zhen Pingfan via voice transmission that they would only return after the people from the Moqi family had left.
Zhen Pingfan had also agreed to their request to reassure them.
In fact, Zhen Pingfan felt that it was unlikely that Moqi Jue would do something to them on their way back. Moreover, Moqi Jue would not be able to catch up with them even if they took the God Emperor-grade spaceship back.
However, it was always better to be careful.
"I've already discussed this with Senior Brother Ye Tong and the others. We'll leave after the people from the Moqi family leave."
Zhen Pingfan replied to Duan Lingtian's question.
Duan Lingtian nodded when he heard this. This was the best choice. After all, no one knew if Moqi Jue would act out of desperation when they left the Seven Kills Valley.
Moqi Jue might not be able to kill them, but there was a high chance that he would be able to snatch back the half soul high grade divine artifact.
After all, that was a half soul high grade divine artifact that he had spent a lot of effort to nurture.
Of course, Duan Lingtian did not feel any pressure when it came to snatching Moqi Jue's half soul high grade divine artifact. This was because when Zhen Pingfan had told him that Moqi Jue had once killed a prodigy from Yun Feng's bloodline in a duel that did not involve life and death.
That prodigy was one of Zhen Pingfan's senior brothers. If he had not died, he would have been a Lesser God Emperor at the very least.
Moqi Jue could have spared his life at first. However, he still killed him in the end.
Of course, Duan Lingtian knew that Zhen Pingfan had told him this because he wanted to tell him that there was no need to feel any pressure when it came to snatching Moqi Jue's things. Moqi Jue was not a good person to begin with.
"Elder Zhen." “
Duan Lingtian was silent for a moment before he said, "I think that we should inform the sect and get a Medium God Emperor expert to come and take us back."
"Perhaps, if Elder Yun Feng is free, we can ask him to come over?"
Duan Lingtian said worriedly.
As the saying went, 'It's better to be safe than sorry.' Moreover, this should not be too troublesome. Therefore, Duan Lingtian suggested this.
However, to Duan Lingtian's surprise, Zhen Pingfan laughed when he heard the reminder through Voice Transmission. "Duan Lingtian, you're really careful."
"My father has arrived. He's waiting for us outside the Seven Kills Valley. He'll appear after we leave the Seven Kills Valley and follow us back."
Zhen Pingfan said.
"Elder Yun Feng is here?"
Duan Lingtian felt relieved when he heard Zhen Pingfan say that Zhen Yunfeng was here. His eyes lit up. "Why didn't he come in directly?"
"He's too lazy to greet the people in the Seven Kills Valley."
Zhen Pingfan said helplessly.
"Since Elder Yun Feng is here, we don't have to wait for the people from the Moqi Clan to leave, right? It doesn't seem like a big deal if we leave now. With Elder Yun Feng around, we don't have to worry about Moqi Jue playing tricks. "
Duan Lingtian said.
"It's fine. We won't have to wait for long."
Zhen Pingfan said, "Moreover, this is Ye Tong's suggestion. I've already agreed to it. My father arrived late last night, but I haven't told them about it yet."
"I'll give them a surprise when they see my father."
Duan Lingtian felt relieved after he spoke with Zhen Pingfan.
Since Zhen Yunfeng was here, what was there to worry about?
Zhen Yunfeng was much stronger than Moqi Jue!
Moreover, Moqi Jue had lost half of his Soul Prominent Divine Weapon. His strength had been greatly reduced.
…
The people from the Moqi Clan left early in the morning the next day in a hurry.
About two hours after the people from the Moqi Clan left, Duan Lingtian received a message from Zhen Pingfan. "Duan Lingtian, the people from the Moqi Clan have left for two hours. It's time for us to leave as well."
After receiving the message, Duan Lingtian left his residence.
When he came out, he saw a group of people from the Chunyang School gathering together. Many of them had just left their residences like him.
"Junior Brother Zhen, why don't we ask the Intermediate God Emperors from the Seven Kills Valley to send us to the entrance?"
At this moment, Elder Jing Xu from the Chunyang School's Tyrannical Saber Faction looked at Zhen Pingfan and suggested, "I'm afraid the people from the Moqi Clan are hiding at the entrance."
"As for the Seven Kills Valley's encampment, due to the Great Array protecting the Seven Kills Valley, we can't use God Emperor-grade spaceships to fly out."
As soon as Elder Jing Xu from the Tyrannical Saber Faction spoke, several other leaders from the other factions chimed in one after another.
"There's no need to go through so much trouble."
Zhen Pingfan shook his head and smiled. "My father has arrived."
"Now, let's meet him outside the Seven Kills Valley's encampment."
Zhen Pingfan's words were no doubt shocking. As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of the people from the Chunyang School present lit up. Even those who originally had worried expressions on their faces were no longer worried.
"Since Martial Uncle Zhen is here, there's naturally no need to seek the protection of the experts from the Seven Kills Valley."
Elder Jing Xu from the Tyrannical Saber Faction smiled brightly. At the same time, he looked at Zhen Pingfan helplessly. "Junior Brother Zhen, you should have told us that Martial Uncle Zhen is here."
"I've been worried."
The leaders of the other branches all had bitter smiles on their faces.
If they had known that the person from Yunfeng's faction was here, they wouldn't have had to worry at all.
"Let's go."
Duan Lingtian and a group of people from the Chunyang School left the Seven Kills Valley's encampment under Zhen Pingfan's lead. As soon as they left, they saw Zhen Yunfeng.
Everyone couldn't help but salute Zhen Yunfeng respectfully.
After that, they didn't take separate spaceships. Instead, they took Zhen Pingfan's spaceship and returned to the Chunyang School.
Even though it was crowded, no one complained.
This return trip might not be peaceful.
