Jingya Pavilion, Cultivation Room!
Taking a deep breath, Lin Yun withdrew the powerful aura he had emitted when he broke through to the Martial King realm.
Then, he took a few pills and picked up a fourth-grade spirit stone. With the help of the pills and spirit stones, Yu Haoran began to consolidate his realm.
But not long after he consolidated his realm, he was interrupted by Lin Yun's voice from outside the Cultivation Room.
Based on his understanding of Lin Yun's character, he knew that Lin Yun would never disturb his closed-door cultivation unless it was an emergency.
Therefore, Yu Haoran could only wave his sleeve and use force to open the door to the Cultivation Room. He motioned for Lin Yun to come in while he continued to consolidate his realm.
"Lin Yun, come in!"
Although Yu Haoran had already retracted the powerful aura he had emitted when he broke through to the next realm, he was still unable to control the Martial King aura he emitted when his realm was not completely consolidated. To Lin Yun, who was only an early fourth-grade Martial Master, it was still a powerful deterrent.
Lin Yun, who had just entered the Cultivation Room, had no choice but to retreat to the door and look at Yu Haoran in shock.
There was nothing he could do about it.
After all, consolidating one's realm required a certain amount of time. Before his realm was completely consolidated, he could not perfectly control his aura.
Therefore, he could only signal for Lin Yun to stand at the door and report.
Forcefully suppressing the shock in his heart, Lin Yun hurriedly reported, "Young Patriarch, two hours ago, the spies of our Yu Clan and Wu Clan simultaneously discovered a stranger who appeared in Ping Yang City and was inquiring about you everywhere."
"A stranger asking about me!"
After hearing Lin Yun's report, Yu Haoran's first reaction was that the experts of the Imperial Clan Court had tracked him to Ping Yang City.
Regarding this, he, who was already mentally prepared, did not panic at all.
"That's right!"
After hearing Yu Haoran's recount, Lin Yun confirmed further and took out a portrait from his storage bag.
Considering that Yu Haoran's aura was too powerful and he was worried that it would destroy the ordinary portrait in his hand, Lin Yun directly opened the portrait and said to Yu Haoran.
"Young Clan Leader, this is a portrait drawn by an elder of the Wu Clan who is proficient in painting."
"Gong Yuyuan!"
When he saw that the person in the portrait was not an expert from the Imperial Clan Court as he had guessed.
It was Gong Yuanyuan, who came from the same sect as him. When Yu Haoran softly called out his name, he couldn't help but frown.
The remote Ping Yang City rarely attracted the attention of experts who were above the Martial Grandmaster realm due to the extreme lack of Heaven and Earth spirit energy.
Then why would Gong Yuyuan, who was a Martial King, suddenly appear in Ping Yang City?
Suddenly, he recalled that Gong Yuyuan was skilled in the art of innate deduction. Not only could he calculate a cultivator's fate and fortune, he could also calculate the time and location of heavenly treasures.
Yu Haoran could roughly guess the reason why Gong Yuyuan had appeared in Ping Yang City. It was most likely because of the Star Tomb that was about to open.
"Lin Yun, where is the person in the portrait?"
The treasure in the Star Tomb would determine whether or not he could return to Xianyang City in the shortest amount of time possible and fulfill his promise with Qin Lingfei. He absolutely could not allow anyone to disturb his search for the treasure.
Therefore, Yu Haoran planned to take advantage of the opportunity when Gong Yuyuan was alone in Ping Yang City to directly eliminate him.
This way, not only could he prevent the news of the Star Tomb's opening from being exposed, but he could also eliminate a future strong opponent in advance. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
"Young Clan Leader, an hour ago, that person left Ping Yang City through the North City and disappeared!" Lin Yun replied.
After hearing Lin Yun's reply, Yu Haoran fell into deep thought.
Based on Gong Yuyuan's cautious character, it was normal for him to leave Ping Yang City immediately after knowing that he had stayed behind to guard the Yu Clan.
After all, he knew about his strength and methods on the surface, and also knew that they couldn't wait to kill each other.
However, what Yu Haoran was really worried about was that Gong Yuyuan might have the same idea as him, which was to take advantage of the opportunity when he was alone in the Yu Clan to gather experts to eliminate him.
In the Hundred Chi Gate, no one was his match except for his master, Feng Qingyun.
Therefore, the experts that Gong Yuyuan could gather were either rogue cultivators or experts from the Emperor Qin's Kingdom.
Considering that rogue cultivators mostly followed the principle of protecting themselves, they probably wouldn't dare to offend him easily.
So, it was very likely that the experts that Gong Yuyuan was able to gather were the experts of the clans of the Grand Qin Empire.
As for the Imperial Clan Court, Gong Yuyuan probably didn't have the right to come into contact with them given his cultivation and status.
As long as it wasn't Qin Baijun, who was almost a Martial Honorable from the Imperial Clan Court, he wouldn't be afraid of anyone.
Therefore, after indicating for Lin Yun to continue paying attention to the movements in Ping Yang City, Yu Haoran continued to use elixirs and spirit stones to consolidate his realm after breaking through.
…!
Two thousand miles away from Ping Yang City, there was a mountain peak shaped like a ferocious tiger.
At the peak of the mountain, Gong Yuyuan, who had left Ping Yang City, sat cross-legged on a huge green rock. In front of him were five jade talismans that emitted a trace of energy.
"The stars have shifted and the tomb of the Emperor has appeared. Elder Five Disperse, if you are interested, come to the peak of Tiger Peak for a chat!"
Taking out a jade talisman, Gong Yuyuan used his Divine Thought to leave a message on the jade talisman. Then, he used his Primordial Qi to activate the jade talisman.
Then, the jade talisman turned into a white light and disappeared from the peak at a speed that was more than ten times faster than lightning.
Then, Gong Yuyuan took out another jade talisman and used his Divine Thought to leave a message on the jade talisman. Then, he used his Primordial Qi to activate the jade talisman.
"The stars have shifted and the tomb of the Emperor has appeared. Elder Zhai Xing, if you are interested, come to the peak of Tiger Peak for a chat."
Then, Gong Yuyuan used the same method to send the same message to three different people.
Then, he closed his eyes and started to rest, waiting for the results of the jade talisman.
"Haha …!"
An hour later, a burly old man in yellow robes appeared in front of Gong Yuyuan, accompanied by a burst of wild laughter. He had a few strands of silver hair in his black hair.
"Greetings, Elder Five Disperse! I am Gong Yuyuan!"
Seeing the old man in yellow robes land in front of him, Gong Yuyuan hurriedly stood up and greeted him.
"Little friend Yuyuan, is the news of the birth of the Star Tomb true?" The old man in yellow robes nodded his head and asked nervously.
"Elder Five Disperse, this is not the first time you and I have met. Don't you believe in my innate deduction skills?" Facing Elder Five Disperse's questioning, Gong Yuyuan replied proudly.
"In that case, little friend Yuyuan, bring me to the location of the birth of the Star Tomb now!" Elder Five Disperse requested excitedly after receiving Gong Yuyuan's confirmation.
