"Hero?" Emperor Zhao Heng stroked the sparse beard on his chin. "Why does this sound like child's play? Is it possible that someone is joking with Yin Baikang?"
Mi Rushan shook his head. "You can't joke like that. Four of Yin Baikang's disciples have already been killed. This enmity has been formed."
"Dog transformation stage, hehe! Interesting. If these words were to reach Yin Baikang's ears, I wonder what kind of reaction Yin Baikang would have? "Mi Ruquan said happily.
"No matter what his reaction is, it's not our fault that someone has come to bear the responsibility. Your Majesty, the Dayan Kingdom cannot fall into chaos because of a grandson of Yin Baikang. You have to put in more effort. Otherwise, you will not be able to explain to Master. " After Mi Rushan finished speaking to Zhao Heng, he said to the two brothers, "I'll leave this place to you. I will return to Illumination Peak and pay a visit to Master. He will naturally take care of this."
The three of them bowed together, and Mi Rushan quickly flew into the sky …
Illumination Peak was the highest mountain in the Dayan Kingdom. It was located in the depths of the wilderness. Mortals could only look at it from afar and could not approach it. In the Great Light Palace at the peak, there was a guest from the Tuan Kingdom. It was Yin Baikang's second disciple, Jing Yuankong, who had reached the early Divine Transformation stage.
Huo Zongming was wearing thin clothes and was barefooted. He leaned against the golden couch in the center. He held a golden wine cup in one hand and gently swirled it around his nose. He seemed to enjoy the fragrance of the wine. His slightly narrowed eyes occasionally flashed with a fierce light as he glanced at Jing Yuankong.
Jing Yuankong stared with a dark expression at the small black triangular flag in his hand. The word "Hero" was exceptionally conspicuous on it. After a long silence, Jing Yuankong held the small flag in his hand and cupped his fists, "Lord Huo, this happened in your territory, so you should know the ins and outs of the matter better than we do. I wonder if Lord Huo knows who is flying this flag?"
His tone was somewhat stiff. It could be heard that he was forcefully suppressing the anger in his heart. The four dead cultivators at the Crossing Calamity Stage were all his disciples. His disciples had been killed, and four of them at once. It would be strange if he was not angry. Yin Baikang flew into a rage when he received the news. He had originally wanted to send his eldest disciple to deal with this, but he had volunteered to come. Naturally, he wanted revenge.
Lord Huo? This form of address made Huo Zongming a little unhappy. When Yin Baikang saw him, he had to call him little brother, but this guy, who had reached the Early Spirit Severing Realm, refused to call him senior. He finished the wine in the cup in one gulp, then said indifferently: "I've never heard of such a person. I'm afraid the World Commerce Association will have to investigate this yourself. With the strength of the World Commerce Association, I'm sure the truth will come to light very quickly."
This was an excuse. Jing Yuankong stared at the person on the bed. Huo Zongming did not mind at all. A mere junior also dared to point fingers in front of him. Next to the bed, a beautiful half-naked woman gently filled the empty cup in his hand with a golden pot.
Outside the hall, Mi Rushan descended and walked into the hall. He glanced at Jing Yuankong who was sitting at the side and bowed to Huo Zongming, "Greetings, Master!"
Huo Zongming smiled and asked, "Why are you here again? Is there a new development? "
"Master is wise!" Mi Rushan took out the jade archive and brought it to the bed with both hands. After Huo Zongming received it, he returned to his seat.
Huo Zongming held the jade archive in one hand and brought the wine cup to his lips with the other. As he drank, he injected his divine sense into it. Suddenly, his eyes widened and he spat out the wine in his mouth. He immediately sat up on the bed and looked at Jing Yuankong with a strange expression. Then, he continued reading the contents of the jade archive.
Mi Rushan did not seem surprised at all. Jing Yuankong, on the other hand, looked at the pair of master and disciple with a puzzled expression. He did not know what was inside the jade archive to make Huo Zongming lose his composure like this. He could not help asking, "Lord Huo, does it contain information about Yin Wufeng?"
"Cough cough …" Huo Zongming tossed the jade archive over. "Take a look for yourself!"
Jing Yuankong caught the jade archive and looked at him doubtfully again. He then injected his divine sense into it. Huo Zongming looked at him from the corner of his eyes with a smirk as if he was watching a show.
As expected, Jing Yuankong's expression changed drastically and turned livid. He then roared, "How dare you, scoundrel! How arrogant!" His voice shook the Great Light Hall.
Huo Zongming immediately said in a cold tone, "Jing Yuankong, do you think this is the World Chamber of Commerce? Is this a place where you can roar as you please? "
Jing Yuankong forcefully suppressed his rage and cupped his fists. "Lord Huo, please don't blame me. I lost my composure for a moment. I'll have to discuss this matter with my master. I might have to trouble you again in the future. I'll take my leave now! "
"Sigh! Forget it! I understand how you feel. You should go back and persuade your master to prepare the spirit stones as soon as possible! Otherwise, it'll be hard to say if things get out of hand. Go, go! "Huo Zongming waved his hand with a smile. It was obvious that he was watching a joke.
Jing Yuankong cupped his fists with a dark expression and disappeared from the great hall. He took the jade archive with him.
Huo Zongming then threw his head back and laughed heartily. When he was done, he said, "Everyone, are you done watching the show? How much longer do you want to watch? "
Mi Rushan looked around in confusion. Those words were clearly not directed at him. Five men and a woman slowly walked out from the back of the hall. Mi Rushan was slightly taken aback. He immediately bowed and said, "Mi Rushan greets the five seniors."
These five people were his master Huo Zongming's close friends. They were all at the Mid Divine Transformation Realm. They were Pu Taidong of Jinshan Nation, Yan Ji of Xiushui Nation, Mu Sang of Smokeless Nation, Miao Hanyuan of Cang Yuan Nation, and Shu Xin of Women Nation. They were all lords of their own territories.
The five of them nodded at Mi Rushan and found a place to sit. The beautiful Shu Xin smiled. "Jing Yuankong was furious just now, and Third Brother Huo was smiling so happily. Something good must have happened to Yin Baikang's grandson?"
Miao Hanyuan nodded. "Huo Zongming, what's so funny? Tell us so we can laugh together."
"That's right. The five of us heard that something happened to Yin Baikang's grandson, so we came to watch the show." Pu Taidong said.
Huo Zongming thought for a moment and couldn't help but laugh. He walked down barefooted and said, "I've been trying to guess what happened to Yin Baikang's grandson. I even suspected that Yin Baikang was the one who did it, trying to mess with me again. Otherwise, how many people in the cultivation world would dare to touch Yin Baikang's grandson? Who knew … haha! Unbelievable! "
The five of them looked at each other. Actually, even though they didn't say it out loud, they were worried that Yin Baikang was up to something. That was why they rushed over. They wanted to support Huo Zongming at the crucial moment, so that he wouldn't suffer at Yin Baikang's hands. The relationship between the five of them was one where they would all suffer together, one prosper together, and they would rely on each other.
Shu Xin's bright eyes flickered as she said, "Third Brother Huo, don't play riddles with us. What's going on?"
Huo Zongming laughed and said, "Yin Baikang's grandson was kidnapped. That jade archive just now, it's a kidnapper … kidnapper. His granny, why does it sound so weird? When did kidnappers appear in the cultivation world? I'm dying of laughter, hehe!"
"Kidnap?" The five of them asked in unison. They looked at each other in dismay. Someone actually dared to kidnap Yin Baikang's grandson?
"That's right. It's a kidnap. The kidnapper specifically asked Yin Baikang to pay two hundred million high-grade spirit stones in exchange for his grandson. Otherwise, he would teach Yin Baikang a lesson. Strong, this kidnapper is too strong." Huo Zongming pointed at Mi Rushan and said, "Rushan, read the contents of the jade archive to the seniors."
"Yes!" Mi Rushan bowed. After thinking for a while, he immediately repeated the contents of the jade archive without missing a single word. When the five of them heard it, they all laughed so hard that they staggered from side to side. Even Yan Ji, who kept a straight face, was no exception.
Pu Taidong laughed breathlessly and said, "Huo Zongming, this happened in your territory. Don't tell me you don't know who did it. Quick, tell us, who did this? He's too talented! If I don't make friends with him, I'll be letting myself down. "
"Yes, yes, yes. Quick, tell us." The few of them jeered together. At the side, Mi Rushan was sweating profusely. He actually saw the seniors acting like they were old and disrespectful, taking pleasure in someone else's misfortune.
Huo Zongming spread his hands and shook his head, saying, "To be honest, I really don't know who dared to do this. If you don't believe me, I can swear to the heavens."
When the five of them heard this, they were stunned. Mu Sang asked doubtfully, "In the cultivation world, the number of people who would dare to do such a thing to Yin Baikang can be counted on one hand. Everyone, think about it. Who could be the culprit?"
The five of them immediately fell into deep thought. Miao Hanyuan recalled the contents of the jade archive and said, "Yin Baikang, I don't care if you're a Demigod or a Dog Transformation cultivator … I've been a little short on cash lately, so I kidnapped your grandson …" As he said this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "To dare to say such things to Yin Baikang, it's obvious that you're not afraid of Yin Baikang turning against you. But I really can't think of anyone who would say that. It's one thing to call Yin Baikang a dog, but to actually call him his father. "
"I think this person is a lunatic! He's obviously not following common sense. "Yan Ji shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Lunatic?" Miao Hanyuan's eyes lit up and said, "Who would dare to speak to Yin Baikang in such an arrogant manner? Do you think it could be that person?" As he said this, he stretched out his index finger and waved it around.
Huo Zongming was stunned for a moment and said, "You mean Bi Changchun?"
Miao Hanyuan nodded and said, "That's right. Think about it. Under the heavens, who would dare to call Yin Baikang a dog, and even call him his father without fear of his revenge, other than Bi Changchun? No matter how much the other elders look down on Yin Baikang, they definitely wouldn't say such things. Otherwise, Yin Baikang would definitely fight him to the death. "
"It's definitely not him." Shu Xin furrowed her brows and said, "Although Bi Changchun's actions are crazy, he's a proud and arrogant person. He definitely wouldn't stoop to doing such sneaky things. Everyone, think about it. If he asked Yin Baikang to fork out two hundred million high-grade spirit stones, Yin Baikang would definitely be more than happy to do it. He might even personally come knocking on his door to pull some strings. Would he even need to kidnap Yin Baikang's grandson? "
The others nodded in unison, thinking that it made sense. Bi Changchun definitely wouldn't stoop to doing such a thing. Huo Zongming waved his hand and said, "Everyone, don't make wild guesses. You won't be able to guess it. Didn't you say to pay the spirit stones in three days to redeem him? When it's time to collect the spirit stones, he'll have to show himself, right? Let's go and take a look. Won't we know who it is then? "
