Hearing the Shangguan clan's envoy, Ren Tanqian furrowed his brows in confusion, "Shangguan clan's envoy, what are you doing here at Yuzhou Martial House?"
Ren Tanqian had yet to understand when a young and arrogant voice rang out from afar.
"Everyone is in such a good mood to hold a banquet here to celebrate. I'm also here to join in the fun, you don't mind right? "
Everyone turned their heads and looked towards the voice.
A young man dressed in an ink-colored robe was slowly walking over.
This youth's black hair was combed into a neat bun on top of his head with an exquisite white jade crown on top. His delicate face looked refined and gentle, and he looked harmless, like a weak scholar who didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken.
And the energy fluctuations on his body were very strong, stronger than any of the disciples present.
In fact, even core disciples paled in comparison to his Primordial Qi.
His realm had clearly reached the peak of the eighth level martial artist. But his age looked to be only around 18 years old.
Comparing this youth's realm and age, everyone could not help but be secretly speechless.
Reaching the peak of the eighth level martial artist at the age of 18, this was unprecedented in Yuzhou.
This was enough to prove that this youth was not from Yuzhou, but from the Shangguan clan of Royal City!
Seeing this youth, Ren Tanqian immediately stood up to welcome him, "Young master Shangguan wants to participate in the banquet, Yuzhou Martial House will naturally warmly welcome you."
Ren Tanqian naturally recognized this youth. He was the Shangguan clan's inner sect elder, Shangguan Hao's grandson, Shangguan Ruiqian.
Although Shangguan Hao was only a branch of the Shangguan clan, his status in the Shangguan clan was also very high. Ren Tanqian absolutely could not afford to offend people from his branch.
That was why Ren Tanqian's attitude towards Shangguan Ruiqian was so respectful.
While talking to Shangguan Ruiqian, Ren Tanqian noticed that behind Shangguan Ruiqian, there was another eighth level martial artist of the same age.
This person had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, his facial features were distinct, and he was always carrying eight dragon-patterned treasured swords on his back. He was none other than Yuzhou's strongest genius, Kang Nam-gun!
Sensing Kang Nam-gun's realm, Ren Tanqian was shocked.
Eighth level martial artist!
How could he be so fast?
Wasn't he only a sixth level martial artist a while ago?
How did he manage to jump two levels in just a month?
This was simply unimaginable!
Lin Yun also noticed Kang Nam-gun's realm immediately, but he was not surprised.
As early as the first time Lin Yun met Kang Nam-gun, he knew that Kang Nam-gun had deliberately suppressed his realm and didn't break through. That was why he had remained at the peak of the sixth level.
The vitality that had been suppressed in his body would accumulate when he wanted to break through, rapidly increasing his realm in a short period of time. Therefore, it was not strange at all that he had advanced to the eighth level of the Martial Warrior realm.
Kang Nam-gun's gaze also fell on Lin Yun at once.
When he sensed Lin Yun's realm, he immediately revealed a shocked expression.
He had never expected that in just a few months, not only had he broken through, but even Lin Yun had not fallen behind.
He vaguely remembered that when he ran into Lin Yun for the first time in Yuzhou City, Lin Yun was only a first level martial artist.
And in just a short few months, Lin Yun had jumped a full five levels and advanced to the sixth level martial artist realm.
This was simply not cultivation, but cheating!
After a short period of shock, Kang Nam-gun's gaze when looking at Lin Yun became incomparably sharp, and the corners of his mouth also outlined a hint of a sinister sneer.
Shangguan Ruiqian took out a golden token from his bosom and said to Ren Tanqian in a haughty tone, "Actually, I came to Yuzhou with the identity of a special envoy to supervise the resource tribute situation."
Hearing Shangguan Ruiqian's words, everyone fell into shock one after another. Clearly, they did not expect that Shangguan Ruiqian would be a special envoy specially coming to supervise the resource tribute!
The Southern Summer King's eight prefectures and prefectures were vast and rich in resources.
For the convenience of governance, the Southern Summer King assigned the eight prefectures and prefectures to the eight marquises. The main purpose of doing so was to let the eight marquises be in charge of mining the resources of the various prefectures and prefectures.
And the resources that the eight marquises mined in the various prefectures and prefectures would be paid as tribute to the capital every year.
In order to prevent the eight marquises from engaging in corruption, the Southern Summer King would send some special envoys to the various prefectures and prefectures to supervise the eight marquises every year.
And the special envoys that were sent out had always been elder-level figures.
And this time, the special envoy that the Southern Summer King sent to Yuzhou was actually a disciple. Just what kind of situation was this?
Ren Tanqian even started to suspect whether the token in Shangguan Ruiqian's hand was forged by him.
However, Ren Tanqian's sinister gaze very quickly explained the authenticity of the token.
This token was indeed real, and Shangguan Ruiqian was indeed a special envoy sent by the Southern Summer King.
Although he did not know why the Southern Summer King would send a youth over, regardless whether it was an elder or a disciple, as long as it was a special envoy, Ren Tanqian could not offend them.
The authority of a special envoy was very great. Even the eight marquises had to treat them with respect. Ren Tanqian was a mere palace master, so he did not dare to offend them.
"Since the special envoy is here to supervise the Yuzhou marquises, why are you in the mood to come to our Martial House's banquet today?" Ren Tanqian probed.
"The reason why I came to the Martial House first is because my grandfather entrusted me with an important matter." Shangguan Ruiqian's gaze turned and landed on Lin Yun.
Lin Yun was still expressionless, but he already understood Shangguan Ruiqian's purpose in coming.
Shangguan Ruiqian directly walked in front of Lin Yun: "I heard that you have an ancient divine sword on you?"
Lin Yun did not deny it. This kind of thing was known by the entire Yuzhou City. He had no way to hide it, and there was no need to hide it.
Shangguan Ruiqian smiled in satisfaction, then said: "That ancient divine sword is actually my Shangguan family's clan protecting treasure."
"A hundred years ago, my ancestor was traveling among the people and accidentally lost this item outside the country. Since then, there has been no news of it. I didn't think that today, this item would actually be found by you. "
Hearing Shangguan Ruiqian's words, everyone present had a burst of doubt in their hearts.
They had never seen something before, yet he was so sure that it was their clan's clan protecting treasure. Wasn't this too ridiculous?
Shangguan Ruiqian then said to Lin Yun: "You have found my Shangguan family's clan protecting treasure. It can be said that you have made a great contribution to my clan."
"As long as you hand over my clan's treasure to me, I will go back and put in a few good words for you in front of the patriarch. You can obtain a generous reward, and you can also enter my Shangguan family and become our Shangguan family's disciple."
After Shangguan Ruiqian finished speaking, he looked at Lin Yun with a threatening gaze. It was as if he was using a silent method to say to Lin Yun: If you don't hand over the divine weapon to me, then prepare for your funeral!
One had to say, Shangguan Ruiqian's coercion and temptation were very appropriate.
As long as Lin Yun obediently handed over the divine weapon, he could exchange it for a generous reward and the opportunity to enter the Shangguan family.
