After quietly leaving the tent, Xiao Yang, Xing Tian and the rest walked around the periphery.
Everything was going according to their plan. After bumping into an old friend in the secret realm, Mayor Nangong invited the three of them into Mayor Nangong's tent to catch up with each other.
Naturally, Xiao Yang and the other two stayed in Nangong City's tent. In addition, they had deliberately changed their appearance and voice, so no one suspected anything.
City Lord Nangong had always been unparalleled, so it was normal for him to make many friends outside.
Moreover, City Lord Nangong was a hospitable person, so there was nothing wrong with letting three old friends stay.
As a result, everyone felt that this was normal.
In the following days, Xiao Yang stayed in the tent peacefully. He wanted to see what kind of storm West Gate City could stir up.
Xiao Yang was also very helpless about this. If they could take down Liu Shenyu, they might be able to extract the silk from the cocoon, or even launch a counterattack on West Gate City.
But now, because of the lack of information, they could not do anything. They could only continue to wait and see.
At the same time, they also began to analyze the power structure of West Gate City.
In fact, the power structure of West Gate City and Nangong City was not much different. They were both formed by the main family, local cultivators, and foreign guests.
The foreign guests of West Gate City were led by Zhang Xuanzhi and the others. They were the powerful people of many worlds who came here to seek refuge.
There were also two forces among the foreign guests, but they could not be called foreign guests. They had some intention of cooperation.
One was Liu Shenyu and the others. They appeared and disappeared mysteriously, and almost never appeared in the Bright Curse World. It was as if they were just there in name, but the respect they received was greater than most of the foreign guests.
The other force was the cultivators who were skilled in the art of poison, but they had never appeared in the Bright Day Secret Realm. West Wind City must have deliberately placed them in the dark to ensure that they could play a role at the crucial moment.
If Xiao Yang had not searched Zhang Xuanzhi's divine sense, he most likely would not know anything about this.
After many rounds of inference, if West Gate City could really mobilize the manpower of the other two factions, then they would also be a huge monster now. Perhaps they could even compete with the three factions.
However, cooperative relationships had always been an uncertain factor. If one's own strength wasn't enough, perhaps the cooperation would become a knife hanging over one's head.
After a brief analysis of the matter, he said some irrelevant things.
The two people standing guard outside Yun Gu were members of the Nangong Family. The one who was easier to talk to was called Nangong Yong, while the one who was more aggressive was called Nangong Xiao.
Yun Gu was a place of utmost importance. As such, if it was not guarded by her own people, it would be very difficult for NanGong Yu to feel at ease.
The strength of those two wasn't bad, being Sixth Order experts. Even if they couldn't defeat an expert, they could at least delay for a while.
Furthermore, with NanGong Yu personally overseeing this place, who would dare to be impudent?
Anyone below the Three-Clan Gate would have to think twice before trying to compete with Nangong Cheng.
NanGong Yu had also once invited Xiao Yang and the other two to enter Yun Gu to take a look and see if they could find their own opportunities. However, he was rather disinterested and did not go.
Xiao Man naturally followed her young master. Instead, it was Xing Tian who felt bored and wanted to go in.
There was indeed someone cultivating in Yun Gu, and it was NanGong Yu's only son, Nangong Wenxin.
Because Nangong Wenxin was the only son, he was naturally the first in line to inherit the position of Nangong City's City Lord!
In the future, this was naturally a matter that was set in stone. However, because his father was seriously ill, Nangong Wenxin had no choice but to cultivate diligently. If something really happened, even if he became the City Lord, he would not be able to hold on to his position.
When that time came, Nangong City would definitely fall into turmoil, and might even suffer great losses due to internal strife.
Therefore, Nangong Wenxin had no other choice but to focus on cultivation and see if he could break through to Seventh Order Martial Emperor.
Once he stepped into this realm, those old people in the same sect naturally wouldn't covet him in the slightest.
They might even lend him a hand, and many of his troubles would naturally be resolved.
Everything was built with strength, and only with strength could one convince others more easily!
Regarding the Nangong Clan's situation, Xiao Yang only nodded his head and did not put it to heart.
After this deal was settled, he would probably not have much interaction with Nangong City in the future.
One had to admit that Nangong Wenxin's talent was not bad, but it was a pity that he was still young.
He was only three hundred years old, and he was already able to cultivate to such a level. It could be said that he was a genius.
There were even some who said that Nangong Wenxin would definitely reach Seventh Order Martial Emperor in this life, and would not live past a thousand years.
If this kid could focus on cultivation, he might even reach a higher level, and be able to compete with the old monsters of the two sects.
However, these were all just jokes, and it was hard to say if they would come true.
Every hundred years, there would be geniuses appearing like carps crossing the river, but the number of people who could reach the top could be counted with one's fingers!
Luck and hard work were both indispensable.
After an unknown period of time, Xiao Yang also met an old acquaintance, Sun Yi!
When Sun Yi came to visit, they only exchanged a few simple words, and did not talk about anything else.
This was also Sun Yi's principle; he needed to keep a low profile most of the time. If he stood out too much, it would be easy for him to get into trouble.
After all, it was not easy for an outsider like him to become the Head Reverend, and if he made a mistake, who knew what would happen to him?
If he were to be like Zhao Yunbu, forcefully suppressing the local cultivators and leading the local cultivators, that would be very bad.
Sun Yi was very clear about his position, and thus, his life had always been smooth sailing.
It was easy for people to overlook him, so no one would target him.
It could be said that when Xiao Yang said that there was a spy in Nangong City, the first person that Nangong Yu suspected was Sun Yi.
Because this person was too low-profile, to the point that he did not have the temperament of a Seventh Order cultivator. Thus, one could not help but suspect that he had hidden his intentions so deeply!
As for whether or not Sun Yi was also a spy from West Gate City, even Xiao Yang could not confirm this point.
After all, without receiving accurate information, one could not speak carelessly.
Sometimes, unintentional words could cause another person to fall into the abyss.
Furthermore, no matter how low Sun Yi's presence was, he was still a Seventh Order cultivator, and if he was framed, it was not impossible for him to betray them.
After a period of time, many people came out from the cloud valley, some were full of smiles, while others were full of worry.
This camp also started to become lively because of this.
Not long after, Zhao Yunbu also returned.
