Shangguan Fenglan pondered for a moment and said, "Great Elder, I think we can't force them."
"They are disciples of our Nine Heavens Palace. Is it wrong for this old man to ask them to contribute the pill recipe?"
"Besides, this old man didn't ask for it for nothing. I also gave them a lot of benefits!"
Great Elder said angrily.
"But they may not care about the benefits you gave them."
"It's better to let nature take its course!"
"In case …"
At this point, for some reason, Shangguan Fenglan suddenly stopped. Not only was there a trace of fear on her face, but there was also a trace of regret.
"In case what?"
Great Elder was suspicious.
"This …"
Shangguan Fenglan hesitated.
"There's no harm in saying it."
Great Elder said.
Shangguan Fenglan took a deep breath, looked at Great Elder, and said, "In case we repeat the mistakes of Qin Batian."
Great Elder's face suddenly became gloomy.
"I knew you would be angry when I mentioned this person, but I can't deny that our Nine Heavens Palace was too strong back then. Otherwise, he wouldn't have disappeared."
"If he hadn't disappeared, then with his talent, I'm afraid he would have been an existence at the level of Palace Master or Vice Palace Master by now."
Shangguan Fenglan sighed.
"Enough, enough."
"This old man doesn't want to hear this name again."
Great Elder waved his hand impatiently.
Shangguan Fenglan heard this and sighed inwardly. Then, she fell silent and quietly looked at Great Elder.
"Huff!"
After a long time, Great Elder let out a long breath. His expression suddenly became a little haggard. He waved his hand at Shangguan Fenglan and said, "This matter is up to you!"
"Yes."
Shangguan Fenglan bowed and replied, then turned and left.
"Qin Batian …"
"Lu Zhengyang …"
The Great Elder also stood up and walked to the window. He looked at the night sky outside, and there was an indescribable sadness on his face.
…
Early the next morning.
Qin Feiyang, Mu Tianyang, and Huo Yi went to the Resource Hall early as usual.
Not long after, Feng Yuan slowly walked down from the second floor with his hands behind his back.
"Greetings, Hall Master."
Everyone in the resource hall, including Qin Feiyang and the other two, immediately bowed.
"Yes."
Feng Yuan indifferently nodded and said, "Jiang Haotian, Huo Yi, Mu Tianyang, come here."
The three of them looked at each other and hurried to Feng Yuan's side.
Feng Yuan took out a Universe Pouch and threw it to the three of them, saying, "Go to the Treasure Pavilion immediately. No matter what, you have to bid for a Four Symbols Infinite Divine Pellet."
Mu Tianyang asked suspiciously, "What do you want the Four Symbols Infinite Divine Pellet for?"
Feng Yuan said, "Don't worry about that. Go."
"Yes."
Mu Tianyang nodded and put away the Qiankun Bag. Then, he called out to Qin Feiyang and the other two, and walked outside.
"Mu Tianyang, this old man has already arranged people at the north gate. Think of a way to bring them to the north gate. When the time comes, you will help from the side. You must eliminate these two people."
Just as the three of them stepped out of the door, Feng Yuan's voice suddenly sounded in Mu Tianyang's mind.
Mu Tianyang was stunned. He did not turn around, nor did he stop. He replied in his mind, "Understood."
Regarding this, Qin Feiyang and Huo Yi did not notice.
The three of them left the Nine Heavens Palace.
When they reached the bottom of the Sky Stairway, Huo Yi took out a transmission altar and said, "Are we going directly to the Treasure Pavilion?"
"No."
"Go to the north gate."
Mu Tianyang transmitted his voice.
"En?"
Qin Feiyang and Huo Yi looked at him in surprise.
He was actually transmitting his voice?
Mu Tianyang said in his mind, "When we left the resource hall, Feng Yuan secretly told me that he has arranged people at the north gate."
"What?"
"That old bastard wants to make a move on us so soon?"
Huo Yi said angrily.
"You should feel honored. If it were someone else, would he be so meticulous?"
Mu Tianyang gloated.
Huo Yi rolled his eyes at him and glanced at the white-haired old man beside the Sky Stairway. While reviving the altar, he transmitted his voice, "Since he has set up an ambush at the north gate, then we should avoid it. Why are we taking the initiative to send ourselves up?"
"Of course it's to catch his weakness."
Mu Tianyang laughed secretly.
"Weakness?"
Huo Yi was suspicious.
"Brother Mu means that since these people were arranged by Feng Yuan, as long as we capture them alive, Feng Yuan won't be able to defend himself."
Qin Feiyang secretly said.
"So that's how it is."
Huo Yi suddenly understood.
At this time.
The altar was revived.
The three of them walked up one after another.
The next moment.
They descended on the plains outside the north gate.
On the plains, there was already a sea of people.
The city gate was also crowded.
Without a doubt.
These people were all here to participate in the auction.
Huo Yi swept his gaze below and sighed with emotion, "I've never seen such a scene before!"
"This is good."
"The more people there are, the more the value of the Four Symbols Infinite Divine Pill will be reflected."
Mu Tianyang secretly laughed.
Qin Feiyang nodded. He could already imagine that there would be a fierce battle in the auction house of the Treasure Pavilion today.
However.
This was not a problem he was concerned about.
He scanned the crowd, looking for Feng Yuan's lackeys.
These people must be lurking in the crowd.
"The people arranged by Feng Yuan are definitely not simple characters. With the strength of the three of us, can we stop them?"
Huo Yi transmitted his voice, a little worried.
"Don't worry."
"The moment we left the Resource Hall, I had already secretly informed Mu Qing, who was cultivating in the space divine object, to send a message to Shangguan Qiu and pass it on to Shangguan Fenglan."
"I think Shangguan Fenglan is already rushing towards Sky Dragon City."
"She might even be here."
Mu Tianyang secretly thought, at the same time scanning the void.
As the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall, Shangguan Fenglan must have a space divine object.
And now, she might be hiding in the space divine object, monitoring everything here.
"You've already informed Lan 'er?"
Huo Yi was stunned, and smiled bitterly: "It's been arranged without anyone knowing, you and Brother Jiang are indeed difficult to deal with!"
Mu Tianyang was about to be proud.
But suddenly.
His expression was slightly stunned, and he turned his head to stare at Huo Yi strangely.
Qin Feiyang also looked at Huo Yi with an extremely strange expression.
"What's wrong?"
Huo Yi looked at the two of them suspiciously.
Qin Feiyang said: "If I didn't hear wrongly, you seemed to have said the two words' Lan 'er' just now?"
"That's right!"
"Is there a problem?"
Huo Yi nodded and asked puzzledly.
Qin Feiyang and Mu Tianyang looked at each other, and asked again: "The Lan 'er you're talking about, it can't be Shangguan Fenglan, right?"
"Nonsense, who else could it be if not her?"
Huo Yi rolled his eyes.
Qin Feiyang and the other man's faces began to twitch.
Lan 'er?
This form of address was too intimate!
Qin Feiyang said: "Isn't the speed of your development a little too fast?"
Huo Yi chuckled and said: "Things like feelings, it must be fast!"
"Awesome!"
Qin Feiyang and Huo Yi couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
Not to mention other things, just this point alone, they couldn't even catch up.
It was just that they didn't know if this form of address had been approved by Shangguan Fenglan? Or was it just Huo Yi's wishful thinking?
"Alright, alright, don't worry about these unimportant issues, let's go!"
Mu Tianyang shook his head and flew towards the north city gate.
Huo Yi hurriedly said: "Wait, wait, if Lan 'er hasn't come yet, then wouldn't we be walking into a trap?"
"We can't wait."
"If we wait any longer, those people arranged by Feng Yuan will probably see through the clues."
"If she really hasn't come, then we'll go to the Black Tortoise World."
Mu Tianyang thought to himself.
"Black Tortoise World?"
Huo Yi was suspicious.
Mu Tianyang was slightly taken aback, and said: "He still doesn't know about the Black Tortoise World?"
"He's been there."
"But he doesn't know that it's the Black Tortoise World, nor does he know that it's an independent small world. He only thinks that it's a spatial divine object."
Qin Feiyang thought to himself.
"So it's like that!"
Mu Tianyang muttered, and flew towards the north city gate while saying: "The Black Tortoise World is Brother Jiang's spatial divine object."
Huo Yi nodded in realization, and followed beside Qin Feiyang. He scanned the sea of people below, and said: "This Feng Yuan is also smart, choosing today to assassinate us."
"There are so many people today, it's easy to hide."
Mu Tianyang smiled inwardly.
"It's indeed easy to hide."
"If you hadn't gained his trust, we wouldn't have thought that there's one of his lackeys among these people."
Huo Yi thought to himself.
"Isn't that Jiang Haotian?"
"And the number one on the Earth Leaderboard, Mu Tianyang!"
"They're actually here too."
"It seems that they're also very interested in the Four Symbols Infinite Divine Pellet!"
"Aren't you talking nonsense?"
"They're all Perfect War-Gods, if the Four Symbols Infinite Divine Pellet is really useful, then they can directly step into the half-step Divine Sovereign Realm."
"How can they not be moved by such kindness?"
"Moreover, they don't lack Soul Stones."
"In the last battle with Shi Tai, Mu Tianyang won a total of fifty million Soul Stones, Jiang Haotian and Huo Yi won even more."
"Especially Jiang Haotian, not only did he win three hundred billion Soul Stones from Jin Fatso, but he also won a hundred million Soul Stones from Feng Zihan."
"He's a true tycoon!"
"This time, he'll probably win for sure."
Below.
Some disciples of Nine Heavens Palace recognized Qin Feiyang and the other two and immediately began to discuss in low voices.
"So he's the Jiang Haotian that was framed by Feng Wenhai!"
"He's indeed a dragon amongst men, his bearing is extraordinary."
Although Jiang Haotian's name had long been famous in the Northern Region, many people came to Sky Dragon City for the first time and saw Qin Feiyang for the first time, so their eyes were filled with curiosity.
Huo Yi said: "Brother Jiang, even I'm a bit jealous of your fame."
"Take it if you like it!"
"I don't want it anyway."
Qin Feiyang smiled faintly.
"Is fame something that others can take away?"
Huo Yi was speechless.
The three of them chatted and laughed, greeting the people below from time to time, but secretly, they were always vigilant.
They were about five to six hundred feet away from the city gate.
Whoosh!
Suddenly.
Four ordinary-looking middle-aged men in simple clothes soared into the sky from the crowd behind and flew towards the North City Gate like lightning.
"Hmm?"
Huo Yi was startled and glanced at the four of them, sending a message: "Is it them?"
"I don't know."
"Feng Yuan only said that he had people arranged, but he didn't say who they were."
Mu Tianyang thought.
"We can't be careless."
"These four people seem to be flying towards the North City Gate, but they're in the same line as us."
"When they get close, they'll suddenly attack us from behind and we won't even have a chance to fight back."
Qin Feiyang sent a message.
"Yes."
Huo Yi and Mu Tianyang secretly responded and became more vigilant.
