From the old woman's point of view, the person Xiao Lingyu was referring to should be the expert behind him. She thought to herself, 'This brat really has a powerful background. No wonder he's not afraid of me, a Holy Deity expert.'
In fact, Xiao Lingyu didn't have any powerful people backing him up in the God Realm. The person he was referring to was this old woman.
If the Kou Family didn't invite a Holy Deity expert and only sent two God Emperors, they wouldn't be able to kill Xiao Lingyu.
If the Kou Family managed to invite the Holy Deity, Xiao Lingyu didn't believe that the old woman would just watch as he was killed. After all, if he died, none of the Black Divine Pigs would survive.
"The Holy Deity isn't easy to invite. The Holy Deity has an agreement that unless a cultivator below the Holy Deity level provokes the Holy Deity, the Holy Deity won't act against ordinary cultivators. Even if you kill everyone in the Kou Family, the Holy Deity won't show up."
After saying this, the old woman disappeared again.
The fifteen Black Divine Pigs weren't injured at all. They were gathered together, and ordinary God King Stage cultivators couldn't do anything to them.
However, under the attack of so many God King Stage cultivators, the Hua Men's base was in a mess. More than twenty God King Stage beasts died in the battle.
The Hua Men's losses were even greater, and Xiao Lingyu took the storage ring of the Kou Family's God Emperor, so he didn't care too much about the loss of the Hua Men.
Rebuilding the base wasn't a difficult task, and Xiao Lingyu didn't care about it. After he returned to the base, he asked Guan Yiwei to personally send a copy of the Kou Family's God Emperor's letter to the Family Jiang in Yongan City.
Xiao Lingyu didn't expect the Family Jiang to accept it, but he had to let the Family Jiang know about it. The more people who knew, the better.
The Hua Men's influence had already spread to almost one-fifth of the Everlasting Joy Land. Under Xiao Lingyu's instructions, the Hua Men's cultivators spread the contents of the agreement written by the Kou Clan's God Emperor everywhere …
Naturally, everyone was happy to discuss such an important matter. Naturally, more and more people knew about it, and the influence of this matter gradually expanded.
No matter what the Kou Clan or the Family Jiang thought, it was an indisputable fact that the Kou Clan was a God Emperor. A God Emperor was more than enough to represent the Kou Clan. Otherwise, why would the Kou Clan send him to the Family Jiang to propose marriage? Therefore, the Hua Men had already become the Family Jiang's biggest creditor. They had the power to collect debts from the Family Jiang.
Under such circumstances, how could the Family Jiang attack the head of the Hua Men, Xiao Lingyu?
Xiao Lingyu knew that this matter would cause a lot of trouble. The agreement written by the Kou Clan's God Emperor wouldn't be able to solve the problem. Therefore, he didn't do anything else. He just stayed in the Hua Men's camp and refined his Saint Artifact while waiting quietly.
The Kou Clan's God Emperor who wrote the agreement quickly returned to the Everlasting Joy City. He said to the Kou Clan Head, "The head of the Hua Men is extremely powerful. When I fought with him, I was always suppressed by him. I didn't even have a chance to retaliate. In order to not provoke such a powerful enemy for our Kou Clan, I wrote that agreement."
He said this to absolve himself of the blame. He had no choice but to exaggerate Xiao Lingyu's strength.
"You should recuperate first. We'll see how the Family Jiang reacts," the Kou Clan Head said with a steely expression.
Then, the Kou Clan Head called out to the guards outside the door, "Ask Kou Yi to come over."
Not long after, a cultivator who looked smart and capable walked in. He cupped his fists and bowed, "Kou Yi greets the Clan Head!"
"Kou Yi, investigate that Hua Men. Investigate four things. First, find out if the head of the Hua Men is related to the Family Jiang. Second, find out the exact strength of the head of the Hua Men. Third, find out if there's a powerful figure behind the head of the Hua Men. Fourth, find out what the long-term goal of the Hua Men is. Remember, investigate in secret. Don't act rashly and alert the enemy, "the Kou Clan Head instructed.
"Yes!"
Kou Yi accepted the order and left.
The Kou Clan had been operating in the Everlasting Joy City for many years. Naturally, they had many spies keeping an eye on every corner of the Everlasting Joy City. They also had spies planted in many large factions and families.
The Hua Men had just developed in recent years, and their actions were secretive and not high-profile. Therefore, the Kou Clan didn't pay much attention to them before. But now, the Kou Clan had to pay attention to them. Their spies often spied outside the Hua Men's residence, and their spies used various methods to infiltrate the Hua Men.
It only took a few years for Kou Yi to once again appear in front of the Kou Clan Head and say, "After these years of investigation, the four points that the Clan Head wanted to investigate have basically been investigated."
"Let's hear it," the Kou Clan Head said calmly.
"The Lord of the Hua Men does have some relationship with the Family Jiang, but it's not a friendly relationship. The Lord of the Hua Men, Xiao Lingyu, didn't listen to the Family Jiang's orders in the Yong An and was listed as a target to be killed by the Family Jiang. After that, he killed many God King experts of the Family Jiang. Because of this, he couldn't stay in the Yong An and came to the Everlasting Joy City. The Lord of the Hua Men originally appeared in Du Hu City. At that time, he only revealed a strength comparable to a God Monarch, but not long after he went to Yong An, he actually had the strength to kill a God King. The Family Jiang had sent nearly twenty God Kings to kill him, but not only did he come out unscathed, he even killed a God King of the Family Jiang. As for his current strength, we can only speculate from the battle with the God Emperor of our Kou Clan. The Hua Men should have an expert behind them. Otherwise, how could they be so strong when facing the Family Jiang and our Kou Clan? Moreover, according to the spies' reports, a mysterious old woman often appears in the Hua Men's camp. Even the Lord of the Hua Men doesn't dare to provoke that old woman. He even ordered all the Hua Men not to provoke that old woman … "
"Do you have an image of that old woman?"
As Kou Yi's words reached this point, the Kou Family Patriarch asked.
"Yes!"
After Kou Yi responded, he immediately used his cultivation to condense the image of an old woman.
The Kou Family's Patriarch's face changed slightly, but then he said, "Continue."
"Only the Lord of the Hua Men himself knows the long-term goal of the Hua Men. The Hua Men follow the Lord's orders, but from their various actions, it can be inferred that their ambition is not small, but they have no intention of conquering the Celestial Realm. They don't deliberately recruit experts, but rather set up points everywhere, as if to establish an intelligence network. "Kou Yi continued.
The Kou Family's Patriarch frowned and pondered for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "You may leave first. Continue to keep an eye on the Hua Men. If you discover anything important, immediately report to me."
After Kou Yi left, the Kou Family's Patriarch turned and entered a secret room. In this secret room, there were several portraits of people, one of which was the old woman.
In front of the old woman's portrait, the Kou Family's Patriarch's face was gloomy as he muttered to himself, "They actually have the support of the Sacred God. No wonder they are so arrogant!"
It took Guan Yiwei nearly a hundred years to travel from the Hua Men's camp to Yongan City. This was all thanks to the top-grade flying artifact that Xiao Lingyu had given him. If he had flown over, even if there were no dangers or obstacles along the way, it would have taken him thousands of years to cross such a long distance.
After entering Yongan City, Guan Yiwei casually asked around and found out the location of the Guan Family's residence. Then, he tidied up his appearance, calmed down his mood, and walked towards the Guan Family's residence.
No matter how fast a top-grade flying artifact was, it was not faster than a cultivator's communication artifact. Before Guan Yiwei arrived at Yongan City, the news of the Kou Family's God Emperor's written agreement had already spread to the Family Jiang. After all, this matter was also a big matter for the Family Jiang.
Yongan City was the narrowest main city of the God Realm, so it naturally occupied a large area. However, such a large city occupied a quarter of the entire city's southern area, but it was monopolized by the Family Jiang's residence. From this, one could see how deep and vast the Family Jiang's residence was.
Guan Yiwei arrived in front of the Family Jiang's residence and handed over the invitation. Not long after, he was brought to the Family Jiang's residence by a God King stage Family Jiang expert.
In the end, the one who received Guan Yiwei was naturally the Family Jiang's Patriarch, Jiang Shengye. For such a big matter, Jiang Shengye had to appear.
Jiang Shengye's attitude was very amiable, and he had a smile on his face from beginning to end. After looking at the written agreement written by the Kou Family's God Emperor, he said, "If the Kou Family's Patriarch is willing to publicly acknowledge this agreement, my Family Jiang will not renege on this debt. No matter who you owe, you owe. In the end, you have to pay it back."
Xiao Lingyu and Guan Yiwei both guessed that the Guan Family would have this attitude, so Guan Yiwei was not surprised and did not pester on this issue.
According to Xiao Lingyu's instructions, Guan Yiwei could leave the Family Jiang at this time, but Guan Yiwei could not help but ask, "Dongfang Jing, is she okay?"
The Family Jiang's Patriarch obviously did not expect Guan Yiwei to ask such a question. He was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, "You know Jing 'er?"
Guan Yiwei could be considered an envoy sent by the Hua Men. Although he was still at the peak of the late stage of the Divine Monarch Realm, his status was not bad. Therefore, he did not hide anything and said, "Jing 'er was taken away at our wedding."
The Family Jiang's Patriarch nodded in understanding and said, "I have also heard about this matter. Although our Family Jiang should not interfere with Jing 'er's marriage, her status is different after all. She cannot marry casually. Her husband must be a dragon among men. Even if he is not an overlord of a large region, he must be a peerless genius that is rarely seen in hundreds of millions of years. This is her destiny, and it is difficult to change it."
Guan Yiwei frowned and muttered, "Overlord? Peerless genius? "
Although Guan Yiwei could be considered a cultivation genius in Duhu City or some other high level cities, if he were to look at a large region or the entire God Realm in a narrow sense, he could only be considered to have an excellent cultivation talent, not an exceptional one. Only someone like Xiao Lingyu, who could appear out of nowhere in a short period of time, could be considered a peerless genius.
If he could not become a peerless genius, then he could only be an overlord of a large region. However, Guan Yiwei could barely be considered an overlord in their Guan family, and their Guan family did not have the qualifications to dominate a large region.
In that case, it was almost impossible for him and Dongfang Jing to be together.
"Can this junior see Jing 'er?" Guan Yiwei pleaded.
"We are not fated to meet. It's better not to meet." Jiang Shengye tactfully refused.
