"My Lord, the people of the Treasure Offering Alliance bid farewell to Tianyi Palace at the fourth night-watch period …"
"My Lord, the people of the Treasure Offering Alliance unintentionally split into two groups. One group went straight to Baek Ok-kyung, and the other group dawdled …"
In the side hall, Ye Huntian didn't sleep all night. He sat quietly in the hall, breathing, waiting for his subordinates to report to him the news about the Treasure Offering Alliance. These news were like pieces of evidence that verified Ye Huntian's conjecture in his heart, making him more and more confident, and also more and more arrogant … Those women of Fuyao Palace, they really didn't step out of the door for too long. They only knew how to be high and mighty, but they had forgotten the sufferings of the world. In the past, there was the Great Elder of Yaochi who secretly controlled everything, so everything was still under their control. But now that the Great Elder was dead, they were just a group of idiots!
When he heard that the Great Elder had died in Kuaiji Mountain, he immediately decided to cut ties with Fuyao Palace because of this reason.
He was indeed a chess piece buried by Fuyao Palace. Unfortunately, after the death of the Great Elder, this group of stupid women with only a body of cultivation did not have the ability to grasp him as a chess piece. When he thought of the faces of the Fuyao female disciples who rushed to his White Emperor City after the God Race descended, and ordered him to immediately gather all his forces and escape into the Tiangang Mountain Range to meet up with the three Goddesses, he felt that it was absurd and ridiculous. The one who chose him was Jade Pool's Great Elder Duanmuqi, the one who supported him was Duanmuting Hall, and the one who left behind many consequences to restrain him was also Duanmuqi. Duanmuqi had already died in the hands of the God Race of Mount Kuaiji, so who else could control him?
So he immediately killed them, rebelling without hesitation!
He even wanted to see Duanmuqi, the Great Elder of Yaochi, who was a man but was willing to hide behind the women of Yaochi, giving them advice and arranging everything for them. He wanted to ask him if he had ever thought that the women of Fuyao Palace would be so disappointing.
This time, to be able to use the excuse of presenting treasures to bluff their way through, it shows that they have learned many things. It is a pity that they have met me, and these tricks are still too crude. Tell those children, no matter how many troops they split up, or how their itinerary is, keep a close eye on that person called Old Man Xing. If I am not wrong, that Old Man Xing should also be a chess piece planted by Fu Yao Palace. This person is not simple. Wherever he goes, keep a close eye on that place … "
After quietly listening to the report of his subordinates, Ye Huntian suppressed the madness in his heart and calmly ordered.
"City Governor, the leader of the Treasure Offering Alliance hasn't shown up yet. Even when he bid farewell to the Palace Lord of the Tianyi Palace, someone else did it for him …"
"Could it be that he has already left?"
Ye Huntian thought for a while and made a decision, "Since we can't see him, let's go and wait for him!"
After saying that, he stood up. After thinking for a while, a faint smile appeared on his face. "But I still have to be careful not to fail miserably. How about this, invite the Young Palace Master of Tianyi Palace and Elder Hu Jun to come with me. Tell them that I want to invite them to watch a good show!"
"Yes!"
This subordinate went to obey the order.
Ye Huntian's face gradually revealed a malicious smile. "Fuyao Palace, oh, Fuyao Palace, you're really my benefactors. When I was in danger, you helped me get through the tribulation. Later, when I seized power in White Emperor City, I also relied on you to help me defeat my master's clansmen. Now … Haha, the God Clan is coming, and we need to make great contributions so that we can have a meteoric rise. But you came to me and created a chance for me to make a great contribution …"
"Just a few disciples of Fuyao Palace. Their value is still too low. I hope there's a big fish among them …"
He muttered to himself and waited for the people of White Emperor City to gather. Before long, Dao Wufang, the Young Palace Master of Tianyi Palace, and Elder Hu Jun also arrived. They looked serious and wanted to know the details. However, Ye Huntian wanted to take all the credit, so he kept them in suspense. He just said with a smile that he had received some news and was going to do something big. Thanks to the hospitality of Tianyi Palace, he wanted to invite them to watch the show together …
Dao Wufang, the Young Palace Master of Tianyi Palace didn't say anything, but Elder Hu Jun seemed to be in a dilemma.
Ye Huntian smiled and said, "A bunch of unruly people. They left in a hurry before the sun rose. They must have given themselves away. If Elder Hu Jun wants to keep an eye on that bunch of unruly people, you don't have to. Come with me. I won't let any of them escape!"
Hearing that, Dao Wufang and Elder Hu Jun didn't say anything more. They looked at each other and followed him.
Of course, in private, people from all walks of life were sent out to keep an eye on all directions.
It was the same in White Emperor City. All the Elders in the Yuan Ying Realm hurried to all directions, keeping an eye on every direction in case of any changes. But Ye Huntian, the Governor of White Emperor City, only brought a few trusted subordinates, Dao Wufang, the Young Palace Master of Tianyi Palace, Elder Hu Jun, and Yu Siliang, the informant, with him. They rode on a cloud and flew straight to the mountain in the southeast corner.
There were many mountains and rivers in the Southern Region of the Divine Land. Baek Ok-kyung faced the Devil's Abyss in the south, but there were endless mountains and forests in the east and west. The terrain was strange and dangerous. However, because the Devil's Abyss was a dangerous place where the rules had collapsed, the mountains bordering the Devil's Abyss were all bare mountains, making it difficult for people to hide there. The God Clan also set up a heavy defense line with Baek Ok-kyung as the center. Therefore, it was almost impossible for ordinary cultivators to cross the defense line and enter the Devil's Abyss at will. Thus, the defense was extremely tight.
However, no matter how tight the defense was, there would be some blind spots. Ye Huntian looked at the map and found a secret passage that could accommodate hundreds of people to sneak into the Devil's Abyss in the shortest time. It was in a mountain corner thousands of miles away from Baek Ok-kyung. There was a kind of strange vine growing here, which directly connected the mountains to the Devil's Abyss, so people could directly escape into the Devil's Abyss from the mountains. The defense line of the God Clan and the patrolling soldiers they sent out all over the sky couldn't take care of this place. It was very remote.
After some speculation, Ye Huntian concluded that if anyone from Fuyao Palace wanted to escape into the Devil's Abyss, they must take this passage.
"Haha, this place is beautiful, with verdant hills and limpid waters. It faces the Devil's Abyss in the south, and is backed by the Fairy Mountain, but it is hidden behind the big peaks. It is a good place to hide. My friends, how about you calm down and drink a cup of elixir tea with me here?"
Compared to Elder Hu Jun, who was worried, Dao Wufang, the young master of Tianyi Palace, who didn't show his joy or anger, and Yu Siliang, the informant, who was trembling with fear, Ye Huntian was really free and easy. He chose a bluestone under an ancient tree and sat down cross-legged. He personally took out an elixir furnace, a tea set, and other things from his Storage Bag. He refined elixir pills and brewed tea on the spot. Then, he talked loudly, talking and laughing with the breeze.
"City Lord Ye must have seen through something, right?"
Elder Hu Jun asked. He glanced at Yu Siliang, whose clothes were obviously different from the disciples of White Emperor City.
"In the banquet last night, Elder Hu Jun and the young master should have seen through it too, right?"
Ye Huntian smiled gently and glanced at Elder Hu Jun and Dao Wufang.
"Yes, so today, whether they said goodbye or left in batches, I didn't stop them. I just sent people to keep an eye on them. I want to see what they are up to. However, City Lord Ye brought us here, so I am a little …"
Elder Hu Jun frowned slightly, but he still said what he wanted to say.
"You're right, Elder Hu Jun. However, if we let them lead us by the nose, we will lose our demeanor. Secondly, it is easy for them to sacrifice their tail to lure the enemy. If we make a mistake, we may only get a few small fish and shrimps, but the real big fish will escape. That's why I invited you two here. There is probably nothing in this world that makes people happier than waiting for their prey …" Ye Huntian chuckled.
Ye Huntian chuckled. A jade talisman on his waist was constantly flashing a dim green light, sending messages one after another. Through this jade talisman, the messages from the disciples of White Emperor City were sent into his mind sea, which enabled him to grasp the overall situation while talking and laughing. Especially when he heard that a group of about four or five hundred people in the Treasure Offering Alliance were heading towards this direction in batches after circling several times, Ye Huntian laughed even more happily. He was almost fully confident that he would definitely catch a big fish today …
He even looked at Yu Siliang with satisfaction and poured a cup of elixir tea for him.
"It's good that everything is under control, City Lord Ye. However, do we have enough people?"
Elder Hu Jun frowned and said, "If there's really no other way, we'll send a secret letter to the God-down Clan. They're only ten thousand miles away from here. If they fly here, they'll arrive in about thirty minutes. It's always good to be more prepared …"
"It's because the masters of the God-down Clan are close to us that we are more assured. If we can catch these big fish by ourselves, it will be a big fish. Even if these big fish struggle a little hard, it's still not too late to ask the masters of the God-down Clan for help. However, if we ask for help now, it won't be good if we can't get the evidence!"
Hearing Ye Huntian's words, Elder Hu Jun and Dao Wufang didn't say anything more.
In fact, they also knew that Ye Huntian said so nicely because he wanted them to make a great contribution!
"We're almost there …"
After drinking two cups of elixir tea, Ye Huntian stood up with a smile. He had received the report from his subordinates that those people didn't walk after entering the deep mountain. Instead, they directly rode clouds at a low altitude and hurried in this direction. He sighed with satisfaction, waved his sleeves, tidied his clothes, and stood on a protruding rock in front of the cliff with his hands behind his back.
Looking towards the west, he had already made preparations in his heart. In order to resolve the hatred that had been pent up in his heart for so many years, when the group of people who were trying to escape saw him clearly, he would definitely ask them with a smile, "Fellow cultivators from Fu Yao Palace, where do you think you are going in the wilderness?"
Sure enough, after the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a group of cultivators arrived on a cloud from the east.
The words that Ye Huntian had prepared for a long time were on the tip of his tongue.
However, he didn't say it out, because the words were taken away before he could say them!
"How dare you rebel from Fu Yao Palace! You've come to this desolate mountain, but where do you think you're going?"
