Yan Li was mentally prepared that the Fengtian Sect would find him, but he didn't expect them to come so quickly and find the restaurant he was staying in. This was a little scary.
However, what made him shiver was not that the Fengtian Sect came so quickly, but that Hai, the King of Beasts, was just sitting there, but there was an extremely strong pressure that shrouded his heart.
It was not the first time he had seen Hai, but he had never felt such a strong sense of oppression from Hai as he did now.
Suppressing the urge to draw his sword, he calmly walked in and quietly closed the door. "Why are you here, my lord?" As he spoke, he walked over to pour a glass of water and drank it as if nothing had happened.
Before Hai said anything, another six people appeared in the room.
Greedy Xia Yin, Lazy Dan, Ever-Changing Lotus, Fission Vulture, and Nest of All Wood Roots. There was also a young girl who wore the same veil as Lotus.
Except for the young girl, they were all old acquaintances. Except for the young girl and Lotus, each of them had the same pressure as Hai, which made him feel like he was surrounded by five ancient mammoths.
The six people stood in six positions, blocking all of Yan Li's escape routes.
Hai said calmly, "Killing Jin Sheng, destroying Lihen Heaven, killing Gongsun Boyue, entering Jixia Learning Palace, defeating Yu Jianzi, and killing Gu Ying. You are the third flower of the Rising Dragon Roll, and you are already a prospective disciple of the Court Of Sword, but you said you want to join the Fengtian Sect. You want to sneak in and investigate us, right?"
Yan Li controlled his hands with great determination, put down the teacup slowly, and said, "Immortality is the highest dream of every cultivator. Even if you join the Court Of Sword, you might not be able to obtain immortality."
"Are you explaining to us?" Hai said.
Yan Li said, "Of course, even if I join the Court Of Sword, I don't plan to become a Fengtian Sect believer."
He continued calmly, "Is it a disadvantage for a person to have multiple identities?"
"Then why did you hide it from us?" Hai said coldly.
Yan Li said with a straight face, "I think that compared to the glorious deeds of the lords, it is nothing. There is really nothing worth mentioning."
Hai sneered, "Are you mocking us?"
Yan Li said solemnly, "As the public enemy of the Jambu Realm, the Heaven Worship Sect is worthy of this reputation."
"Looks like he's complimenting us." Dan chuckled.
"You're friends with the Golden Crow Queen?" Hai continued sneering, "But you pretended to die a martyr's death and hid in the Gold Crow Palace. Didn't you find what you wanted and use it to get rid of the Fengtian Sect?"
Yan Li said, "My friendship with the Golden Crow Queen is only because I coincidentally helped her retrieve the treasure in Buluo City last time. She didn't kill me, but she severely injured me, so I had to recuperate for a long time."
"Oh?" Hai said coldly, "Then why didn't you meet up with us after you recovered? Why did you come to the Celestial World alone? How dare you say that you are loyal to the Celestial Sect?"
This was the most crucial issue.
If he gave a bad answer, it would be a thunderous scene.
Yan Li adjusted his breathing and said slowly, "I would like to ask you a question."
"Question?" Hai said.
Yan Li said, "Until now, what benefits has the Celestial Sect given me? Why should I be loyal to it?"
When he said this, the Celestial Sect disciples were shocked. But after thinking about it, it seemed to make sense.
"Or did I do something to harm the Celestial Sect?" he continued to ask.
No one spoke.
"Did I betray you?" he continued to ask.
The room was silent.
"Did I harm the Celestial Sect's interests?" he continued to ask.
The Beast King knocked on the table lightly.
"Did I disobey orders?" Yan Li continued to ask.
Hai stopped knocking on the table and shouted, "You're trying to confuse us, avoiding the important and dwelling on the trivial!"
Yan Li said, "You can control my will at any time. Where can I escape to?"
"In my opinion, why don't you use this mission to make up for your mistakes?" Dan suddenly said.
"What mission?" Yan Li was slightly relieved.
"Dan, since you are so enthusiastic, stay and talk to him." Hai said coldly, "This kid was born with a complacent face. I don't like it." After saying this, he stood up and left.
The Celestial Sect disciples were stunned. Then, they all sneered and left in a line.
That was it?
Yan Li looked at Dan and said, "Thank you for speaking up for me, Sir."
Dan smiled and shook his head. "Actually, Hai still believes in you. You haven't come to meet us for a long time. We thought you were dead. Then, we found out that you were being entertained in Bu Luo City. We all thought that you used the secret technique of Bu Luo City to escape from Hai's control and were about to betray us. The Dragon gave the order to kill you. It was Hai who argued and said that he would only know the result if he found you. "
Yan Li could not help but be startled.
"Hai had a younger brother. If he didn't die, he would be about your age now." Dan poured a cup of cold water and drank it. He explained slowly, "I think he saw the shadow of his brother in you."
"How did his brother die?" Yan Li asked.
"I don't know the details." Dan shook his head.
He continued, "You can ask him about Hai's story. I think he will tell you. This time, we came to White Water City for the secret treasure of Sky Pillar Mountain. "
"The secret treasure of Sky Pillar Mountain!" Yan Li was shocked.
"You know about it?" Dan was surprised.
"I'm not sure. I only heard that a secret treasure is about to appear in Sky Pillar Mountain." Yan Li couldn't help but feel a headache.
"Hmm." Dan pondered for a moment. "Then I'll tell you in detail. The secret treasure of Sky Pillar Mountain is closely related to the changes in the surrounding hunting grounds. "
"Why do you say that?" Yan Li asked.
"Normally, it takes one to two years for a General-level Fallen Star Beast to be born." Dan still felt thirsty, so he pulled out the cork of the wine flask and took a sip. Only when his face was full of thirst did he continue, "But in the past few months, with Sky Pillar Mountain as the center, several large hunting grounds around it have been showing up with General-level Fallen Star Beasts, especially the 'Old General' of Juque Mountain. Recently, Fengshui Masters have been gathering here for the 'Old General.'
"What kind of secret treasure can have such an effect?" Yan Li asked.
"It's not accurate to say that it's a secret treasure. If you describe it as an 'Immortal Artifact,' you should understand it better," Dan said.
"Immortal Artifact?" Yan Li was confused. "Isn't the Immortal Artifact of Sky Pillar Mountain 'Nine Heavens Thunder'?"
"'Nine Heavens Thunder' has already recognized its master." Dan couldn't stop. "I'm talking about an Immortal Artifact that hasn't recognized its master."
