All the aristocratic families in Shangyang City raised their defenses to the highest level and recalled all the experts who were out on missions. Some of the heirs and talented juniors were sent out. This was to prevent a repeat of the Supreme Palace's mistake.
At this moment, almost everyone's eyes were focused on the Supreme Palace. This was because after the people who went to the banquet returned, everyone immediately knew about the hatred between the Supreme Palace and the Yingyang Family. Coupled with the effects of the Extreme Chill, the culprit was obvious.
The only one who guessed the truth was Tianyuan Commerce's Ding Ling 'er.
"What? Miss, you said that this was done by Li Yunxiao? Absolutely impossible! I also went to the Yingyang Family to take a look. It was definitely the work of the gods. He killed everyone in an instant. If Li Yunxiao had such power, he would have dominated the Fire Crow Empire long ago. Why would he still be in Yanwu City? "
Yu Rong's face was full of disbelief as he shook his head like a rattle drum. Although Miss Ding Ling 'er's speculations were rarely wrong, this was too outrageous. He didn't believe it no matter what.
Ding Ling 'er sighed, "It's not just you who doesn't believe it. Even I don't believe it. But I'm sure that it was done by Li Yunxiao. The strongest person in the Supreme Palace, Ma Tianhe, is only a Three Star Martial Ancestor. There are only four Martial Ancestor experts in the sect. Even if the entire sect mobilized, they wouldn't be a match for the Yingyang Family. "
Yu Rong said, "Even the Supreme Palace couldn't do it, let alone Yanwu City. Their strongest is only a Nine Star Martial King. To say that they destroyed the Yingyang Family … Haha, this is the funniest joke you've ever told. "
Ding Ling 'er ignored Yu Rong's words. She had a look of doubt on her face as she muttered to herself, "How did they do it? This Li Yunxiao is too mysterious. The information we have gathered is completely useless. There must be a crucial point missing. What is it? "
Yu Rong smiled in surprise, "Miss, you're thinking too much. This is definitely not done by Li Yunxiao. Our investigation organization can be ranked in the top ten in the entire Sky Martial Continent. If we want to investigate a playboy from a small country, we can even find out how many times he peed his bed when he was young. No information will be lost. "
Ding Ling 'er remained silent as she paced back and forth in the hall. In the end, he shook his head helplessly and said, "I can't think of any clues. Elder Yu, from today onwards, Yanwu City will enjoy the first VIP treatment here. No matter what the conditions are, as long as we can do it, we will fully support you! "
"Bang!"
Yu Rong sucked in a breath of cold air and said in shock, "The first honored guest? Miss, do you know what you are doing? "
He had never doubted Ding Ling 'er's decisions, but this time, he couldn't help but question her.
Ding Ling 'er smiled and said word by word, "Of course! This might be the biggest and most successful investment of my life! "
Yu Rong stared blankly for a moment, then frowned and said with a belly full of suspicion, "Miss, you, you wouldn't have taken a fancy to that Li Yunxiao, would you? Although he is handsome and suave, but his identity and … "
"Elder Yu!"
Ding Ling 'er shouted shyly, "What nonsense are you talking about!" She stomped her foot and chased Yu Rong out. Yu Rong shook his head and sighed from outside. "Sigh, a grown girl can't be kept at home. Sigh ~ "She was so angry that she jumped up and down.
After being angry for a while, she suddenly felt that her embarrassment was funny and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Shangyang City, Cheng Clan.
In a grand residence, the Cheng Clan's current head, Cheng Feng, was studying a chess game in the middle of a grand chessboard. Opposite him sat an old man with white hair and a youthful complexion. His eyes were smiling, but he didn't say a word.
Cheng Feng played white and couldn't decide.
After a long time, he finally put down the white chess piece in his hand and sighed, "Grandmaster Bai Li's game is too mysterious. Cheng Feng has been thinking hard for half a month, but not only can I not solve it, when my mind enters it, I feel a faint sense of fear. It is too profound, please enlighten me, Grandmaster."
Baili Gongjin stroked his beard and smiled, "I can't solve this game either."
Cheng Feng was stunned and asked in surprise, "Even Grandmaster Bai Li can't solve it? Then this chess game … "
Baili Gongjin made a gesture and smiled bitterly, "You have been studying it for half a month, but I have been studying it for half a year. This is a game set up by Sovereign Emperor Wu Tengguang. It is called the Heaven and Earth Chess Game. It contains Sovereign Emperor Wu Tengguang's supreme understanding of formations. If someone can solve it, they can inherit his 800 scrolls of formations and become a master of formations. "
"Huh!"
As the head of one of the four major clans of the Huo Wu Empire, he was shrewd and calm. Even so, he was still shocked and gasped. His face was full of shock. He asked in shock, "Are you talking about the Chess Saint, ranked seventh on the Heaven and Earth Ranking List, the Emperor Wu Tengguang who was conferred the title of Sovereign in the Sanctuary?"
Baili Gongjin smiled and nodded with a smile in his eyes.
Cheng Feng looked at the chess game in shock and asked suspiciously, "How did Grandmaster Baili get such a precious thing?"
Baili Gongjin looked at his nervous face and laughed, "Brother Cheng, you don't have to be so cautious. This matter was now known by everyone in the Sacred Region. There are thousands of people who have studied it, but I have never heard of anyone who can understand the formations. However, many people can understand higher levels of martial intent from it, and it is common to hear that their cultivation has increased greatly. It is a pity that I am not good at martial arts, and it is hard for me to understand. Brother Cheng's strength is amazing. If you focus on studying it, you might be able to understand something. "
Cheng Feng was rather surprised. He smiled bitterly and said, "It was a false alarm. If this is the only one in the Chessboard of Heaven and Earth, then my Cheng family will be pushed to the teeth of the storm and may be annihilated at any moment."
As the saying goes, a man is innocent, but a treasure is his crime. Although the Cheng Clan could do whatever they wanted in the Huo Wu Empire, in the entire Tianwu Continent, they were just ants. Don't even think about obtaining such a shocking treasure.
"Haha," Baili Gongjin laughed, "If I only had this, I would have died a long time ago. Emperor Wu also wants to take a disciple, but the people who went to take him as their master were not talented enough. That is why he came up with this method. If someone can understand its mysteries, they can take him as their master and inherit the formations, which will bring them great benefits. Even if they can't understand it completely, they can still benefit immensely if they can understand one or two of them. "
Cheng Feng was slightly surprised and disappointed. He said, "There are many geniuses in the continent who can't understand it, and I don't have any hope."
Baili Gongjin smiled and said, "This is not easy, but it is also about luck. Maybe there is someone in the Cheng Clan who has a great luck. If they are lucky enough to get it, the Cheng Clan will be able to stand proudly in the Jiutian Continent, and they won't need to stay in this southern country. "
His words tempted Cheng Feng. If he could get Emperor Wu's inheritance, he would be invincible in the Tianwu Realm's three southern countries. He would even be able to trample on the Heaven-Gathering Sect. Cheng Feng immediately decided to gather all his clansmen and have them make copies of the Heaven and Earth Chess Game.
Baili Gongjin suddenly said, "I suddenly thought of something. Maybe someone can give it a try."
Cheng Feng asked in surprise, "Who?"
Baili Gongjin said, "Everyone knows that Lord Yang Di left behind a painting in the Tianshui Nation. He said that if anyone can understand its mysteries, they can do one thing for him unconditionally. All of us have seen that painting, but none of us could understand it. But recently, a youngster from the Tianshui Nation managed to understand it. That youngster's comprehension is very high. You can summon him and give it a try. "
A smear of displeasure flashed across Cheng Feng's face as he snorted, "I've also heard about this matter. Furthermore, that idiot actually gave such a great opportunity to the Wang Family to save the princess of the Aquasky Nation!" As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. "That idiot probably hit the mark by a fluke and was just lucky. It's said that the answer to the riddle is actually the hidden poem that Gu Feiyang used to scold Yang Di."
Baili Gongjin smiled and said, "Luck is also a part of one's strength. Moreover, Yuan Hao has a very high evaluation of this youngster. Brother Cheng, why don't you find him and give it a try? "
"Hmph! Even if this matter didn't happen, I would have sent someone to find this person."
Cheng Feng's eyes flashed and he said, "This person is the current Yanwu City Lord, Li Yunxiao. Last time, the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce actually dared to kill a disciple of my Cheng Clan and the successor of the Yingyang Clan, Yingyang Jie. I thought that the Yingyang Clan would deal with him, so I didn't care. Who knew that the Yingyang Clan would suffer such a great calamity that shook the entire capital! "
Baili Gongjin's eyelids suddenly twitched. An absurd thought popped up in his mind and he blurted out, "Brother, do you think that the Yingyang Clan's matter is related to Yanwu City or Li Yunxiao?"
Cheng Feng was stunned for a moment before he laughed, "Haha, Master Baili, you really have a rich imagination. Speaking of the relationship between the two, there is indeed an irreconcilable enmity. However, Yanwu City is just a small city in the Aquasky Nation. Even if the entire Aquasky Nation mobilized its strength, it would still be impossible to destroy the Yingyang Clan. Moreover, you have seen the ice sculptures of the Yingyang Clan. Even a Seven Constellation Realm Martial Emperor might not be able to escape in that situation. With such strength, he is definitely not a nobody! "
Baili Gongjin gently nodded in agreement and said slowly, "This matter is indeed very strange. Now, everyone agrees that it was done by the Supreme Palace. It is said that Yingyang Ming looted the Supreme Palace's treasury during Ma Feibai's banquet and killed many people from the Supreme Palace before escaping. This was witnessed by the dozens of people who attended the banquet. This caused this matter to take revenge. It is indeed reasonable. I didn't expect the Supreme Palace to have such a huge hidden strength that could destroy the Yingyang Clan in an instant. "
Cheng Feng's expression also became solemn and he said worriedly, "The Supreme Palace has only been established for a hundred years. The Palace Lord, Ma Tianhe, is only a Three Star Martial Ancestor. If his origin is a little mysterious, and he seems to be related to a large sect in the Northern Region, I'm afraid he would have been destroyed long ago. Now, it seems that this is not the case at all! "
He said with a worried expression, "Their true strength is far beyond what it seems on the surface! I even suspect that they might have been sent by the Northern Region's forces. "
