In terms of cultivation, it wasn't that there weren't those participating in the Heavenly Connection Meet this time who had a higher cultivation base than Yan Zhaoge, and there would even be Heavenly Connection Martial Practitioners amongst them.
Although Heavenly Connection State martial artists were mostly in seclusion, and rarely ventured outside, the Heavenly Connection Meet was still a special situation.
Especially now that the overall situation of the Eight Extremities World was rather tense, this time's Heavenly Connection Meet was even more important.
In terms of strength, the current Yan Zhaoge might not necessarily be able to come out on top in the Heavenly Connection Meet where heroes gathered.
But for him to be able to defeat the late Xiantian Martial Scholar Liu Shengfeng with his early Xiantian Martial Scholar cultivation, in the entire Heavenly Connection Meet, he was probably the only one who had done so.
After all, Liu Shengfeng was not an ordinary late stage Xiantian martial artist.
Regardless of how this person was in other aspects, in terms of martial cultivation, he was ultimately of the direct lineage of the Mountain Domain's Sacred Ground, Infinite Boundless Mountain. Even if several ordinary late Xiantian Martial Scholars ganged up on him, they might still be defeated by him alone.
At the very least, if Xie Youchan were to go up against Liu Shengfeng, she would have a fifty-fifty chance of winning. Victory or defeat would depend on her performance on the spot.
Therefore, looking at Yan Zhaoge at this moment, Xie Youchan was truly filled with admiration, while Zhang Yao beside her had a look of admiration on her face.
In keeping Liu Shengfeng's Lofty Mountain Armour, Yan Zhaoge having left this treasure where it was, Shan Shiweng had tacitly agreed that it belonged to Yan Zhaoge.
"Tsk, if I were to open a spoils of war exhibition and display all the signature weapons of the core heirs of the various clans, it would be cool, but would I be beaten up for being too arrogant?"
The corners of Yan Zhaoge's mouth twitched as he kept the items, smiling towards Xie Youchan, "Senior Sister Xie overpraises me."
Surveying their surroundings, looking at the messy island, Yan Zhaoge said rather apologetically, "This is much greater than the destruction caused by that big fella over there."
The panda nudged him with an innocent look in its eyes.
Xie Youchan said, "No matter. The root of the problem lies with Liu Shengfeng. Our clan's Seniors will naturally negotiate with Infinite Boundless Mountain's Senior Shan Shiweng."
This matter was settled. The group then prepared to return to Clear Concealed Island.
When they returned this time, everyone sat on the giant panda. This silly fellow was not afraid of strangers and carried everyone on the water.
The only exception was the middle-aged martial artist. The Giant Panda also held a grudge. It remembered that the other party had shot it with an arrow at the last moment of its advancement.
However, even though he didn't carry him on his back, he summoned a stream of black water in front of him and lifted him up, bringing him back to Clear Concealed Island.
This middle-aged martial practitioner came from a power that was close to Turbid Wave Pavilion. Having received permission from Turbid Wave Pavilion to enter Clear Concealed Lake to seek fortuitous encounters, yet something had happened on the surface of Clear Concealed Lake. Turbid Wave Pavilion would have to at least give some sort of response.
Moreover, this person's injuries were too severe. If he wasn't treated in time, it was inevitable that he would lose his life.
Thus, Xie Youchan decided to bring him back to Clear Concealed Island.
Sitting on the back of the panda, Zhang Yao was full of interest, and Ah Hu grinned. After all, it was rare to see a pixiu.
Yan Zhaoge, on the other hand, was rather conflicted as he looked strangely at the panda beneath his bottom that resembled a small elephant.
"The style is really a little strange …" Yan Zhaoge carefully appraised the others. The others didn't seem to mind. Instead, they were quite interested, which made him feel a little better.
Yan Zhaoge asked Xie Youchan, "Senior apprentice-sister Xie, do you have Scarlet Flame Iron and Cold Light Iron here?"
Xie Youchan answered, "They are all very common ores that produce a lot. Although there aren't any veins in the area around Clear Concealed Lake, there are some stored on Clear Concealed Island. Do you need them?"
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "I'll have to trouble senior apprentice-sister Xie to help me contact some. In terms of price, I won't let your clan suffer a loss."
Xie Youchan looked at the panda. Smiling, she said, "You want to feed this big fella? Then you'll have to prepare some more. "
Yan Zhaoge smiled bitterly, "Isn't that so?"
As they chatted and laughed, they returned to Clear Concealed Island. Yan Zhaoge took his leave of Xie Youchan and Zhang Yao, bringing along Ah Hu and that panda. Returning to the bamboo house that he resided in.
Ascending to the second floor of the bamboo house, he saw a figure already within his room.
The other party stood by the window, gazing at the distant surface of the lake. As Yan Zhaoge ascended the stairs, he turned, "Zhaoge, you're back?"
The visitor had a refined, scholarly appearance, three long strands of beard hanging down to his chest. It was precisely Fang Zhun.
Yan Zhaoge greeted Fang Zhun, "Second apprentice-uncle."
"I already know about the matter with Infinite Boundless Mountain's Liu Shengfeng. The fault does not lie with you; there is no need to take it to heart," Fang Zhun said, "This time, I have come for another matter."
Yan Zhaoge nodded, quietly listening to Fang Zhun continue speaking.
Fang Zhun said slowly, "Regarding that Decimating Abyss organisation that intends to cause trouble in the Earth Domain, the Heavenly Thunder Hall has obtained a major clue."
Yan Zhaoge's expression froze slightly, "Decimating Abyss?"
Fang Zhun nodded, "That's right; this organisation has infiltrated even deeper than expected."
"Not just those martial practitioners who are dissatisfied with our six great Sacred Grounds; even within the six great Sacred Grounds, there are also their people!"
Yan Zhaoge's pupils abruptly dilated as he heard Fang Zhun continue, "This time, the Heavenly Thunder Hall discovered members of the Decimating Abyss organisation within their ranks, obtaining a lot of useful information."
"The Decimating Abyss's goal is to have that legendary Nine Underworlds descend into the Eight Extremities World."
Fang Zhun's current expression was also rather solemn and gloomy.
Yan Zhaoge's expression was similarly solemn, many thoughts flashing through his mind.
"In the Earth Domain, there very possibly really exists a crack in the passageway that leads to the Nine Underworlds."
"However, for some unknown reason, there is some kind of power that has suppressed and blocked this crack."
Yan Zhaoge knit his brows, "The ultimate goal of the people of the Decimating Abyss is indeed to open that crack, drawing the descent of the Nine Underworlds?"
"The Evil Devils are proficient in bewitching people's hearts, drilling holes in their hearts, finally transforming into devils. However, they are also proficient in concealment, being hard to guard against."
"The Ghost Hatchet Elder Han Sheng, from the looks of it, is still only a little extreme, not really resembling a true devil …"
"People like him want to change the current situation of the six great Sacred Grounds, changing the heavens and changing the earth, fighting for a new future."
"Originally a martial practitioner of the six great Sacred Grounds, what is it for? Having desires in their hearts, they were then bewitched, unceasingly magnifying their desires, slowly drowning within? "
Yan Zhaoge's mind was filled with countless thoughts. After he had collected them, he looked at Fang Zhun.
While this matter was of great importance, Fang Zhun still patiently waited for Yan Zhaoge to digest this information. Seeing that Yan Zhaoge had regained his wits, he continued, "While the Heavenly Thunder Hall did not say it, our information channels in the Thunder Domain indicate that it was Lin Tianfeng's handiwork that uncovered the Decimating Abyss spy concealed within."
"Just based on this, he holds an even greater advantage in the internal competition for the position of the Heavenly Thunder Hall's next Hall Lord."
Yan Zhaoge narrowed his eyes.
Lin Tianfeng was the father of the Thunder Rumbling Young Master Lin Zhou.
Yan Zhaoge looked at Fang Zhun, "The Heavenly Thunder Hall has obtained a great deal of beneficial intelligence; does it include the identities of the spies of the Decimating Abyss Organisation within the other five great Sacred Grounds?"
"That's right." Fang Zhun nodded, his voice gentle, "Also, during this time's Heavenly Connection Meet, at this Clear Concealed Lake, the Decimating Abyss is going to cause trouble once more."
