I'll be safe if I go to your place? Why did you call me over?! Miao Yi cursed his ancestors in his heart, but on the surface, he said, "Isn't that inappropriate?"
"What's inappropriate about it?" An Zhengfeng seemed to think highly of him. "It's better than you standing here and watching me die."
"Sigh!" Miao Yi let out a long sigh. "Granny Tao treated me well when she was alive. I won't be able to forgive myself if I run away now. Shopkeeper, now is not the time to talk about this. If I'm still alive after this, I'll come looking for you. You better take me in! "
Seeing that Miao Yi didn't want to leave, An Zhengfeng couldn't beg him to leave. He couldn't take Miao Yi away by force either. Without the approval of his superiors, An Zhengfeng didn't have the authority to remove Miao Yi's background as a local authority. Thus, he didn't say much. He still had to confirm whether Miao Yi was telling the truth. He was in a hurry to report to his superiors, so he didn't have the time to waste with Miao Yi.
"Write down what you said just now. Make it clear why you were exposed." An Zhengfeng had to leave behind evidence to report to his superiors. Otherwise, if Miao Yi died here, he wouldn't be able to produce any evidence.
Miao Yi didn't want to write, but he had no choice. He had no choice but to write down what he said just now and leave his transcendence seal on it for the other party.
An Zhengfeng didn't want to stay any longer, so Miao Yi personally escorted him out. As he watched the other party disappear into the horizon, Miao Yi heaved a sigh of relief.
If he hadn't returned in time, this old man would definitely have forcefully taken him away. If someone from the Chamber of Commerce dared to forcefully take away a Hall Master, it would definitely incur the wrath of the local feudal vassals. Even Mu Fanjun might not be able to protect the old man then.
After dealing with An Zhengfeng, Miao Yi didn't have to wait long before Yan Beihong hurriedly flew over with two Advisors.
Miao Yi personally went out to welcome them after being notified. Striding over, Yan Beihong cupped his fists and said, "Little Brother, congratulations! Congratulations on being promoted to Suppressing First Hall Master! "
"Compared to you, Big Brother Yan, who is the master of two halls, it's not even worth mentioning." Miao Yi was a little surprised. He didn't expect Yan Beihong to come all the way here to see him. He could really fly now. It would be much more convenient for him to travel now.
Yan Beihong turned around and introduced the two Advisors to Miao Yi, acting as if he was the master of the place. She didn't stand on ceremony with Miao Yi and immediately ordered Xue 'Er to bring her two subordinates to the side to rest. She then grabbed Miao Yi's arm and entered the hall together.
"This Jade Stone Hall is not bad. I'll get someone to build one for me later." He looked around the small hall. Yan Beihong clicked his tongue. Suddenly, he felt a great sense of heroism. He spread his arms wide and said in a heroic manner, "Back in the days, you and I braved life and death in the Boundless Secular World. Who would have thought that we would have such a day!"
Miao Yi smiled. Thinking back to the past and looking at the present, it was indeed emotional.
Qian'Er came in with a cup of tea. After the two of them took a seat at the side, Miao Yi asked curiously, "Big Brother Yan, why do you have the time to visit me?"
"I came here a few times, but I didn't see you. Qian'er and Xue'er refused to tell me the truth, so when I heard that you were back, I naturally came to take a look." Yan Beihong lowered his voice and asked, "Brother, tell me honestly. Where have you been all these years?"
Miao Yi was silent for a moment before replying, "I went to Flowing Clouds Dune Sea. The higher-ups have sent me on a secret mission, so it's not good for me to tell anyone. The matter of the Netherdragon Ship has caused quite a stir. I'm sure Big Brother Yan has heard about it as well. "
'So that's how it is!' Yan Beihong was enlightened. He then asked in a low voice, "Does the Netherdragon Ship really exist in Flowing Clouds Dune Sea?"
Miao Yi nodded.
Yan Beihong was curious. "Since you're so sure, did you see it?"
Miao Yi nodded again. "I was the one who found the Netherdragon Ship this time."
Standing beside him, Qian'Er was a little shocked. Ever since Miao Yi came back, he hadn't mentioned this. She didn't expect him to have seen that legendary ship before.
"What does it look like?" Yan Beihong asked excitedly, "I heard that the ship is loaded with treasures from the higher realms. Is that true?"
"I don't know if the ship is loaded with treasures or not. I couldn't get close to it at all. All I saw was a group of zombies chained up by chains, dragging a giant ship across the desert. "
"So the rumors are true." Yan Beihong stood up and started walking. "Looks like I'll have to pay Flowing Clouds Dune Sea a visit if I have the chance."
"I advise you not to meet him. I just happened to run into it. I followed along and almost lost my life. The zombies pulling the ship numbered in the tens of thousands, and every single one of them was terrifyingly strong. A Purple Lotus expert couldn't even block a single attack from one of them. The Golden Lotus experts sent by the Celestial Nation couldn't even board the ship. I just don't want to run into that ghost ship again. "
Yan Beihong clearly didn't think much of it. He sat back down and asked, "Little Brother, do you know where the Netherdragon Ship is hidden?"
"It should be wandering around Flowing Clouds Dune Sea. Big Brother Yan, you can't really be thinking of going there to look for it, right? I advise you to give up on that idea. The Six Nations have sent a large number of experts to Flowing Clouds Dune Sea to no avail. What can you possibly find if you go there? "
"Looks like the higher realms of the legends really do exist …" Yan Beihong muttered. He turned around and took a sip of his tea. "No matter what, I'm relieved that Little Brother is back safe and sound. When do you want to come over to my territory?"
Miao Yi smiled bitterly. "How can I possibly leave? Trouble is just around the corner. I don't even know if I can survive this ordeal."
Yan Beihong was taken aback. "What do you mean? You've just been promoted to Hall Master. You're at the height of your success. What kind of trouble are you talking about? "He had come from afar, so he still didn't know about the situation here.
"The Traversing Sun Palace, Wood Palace, and Traversing Water Palace are about to engage in a major battle. Hundreds of thousands of cultivators are about to clash. It's much more dangerous than the Sea of Constellations Subjugation Crusade. Even Purple Lotus cultivators will have to participate …" Miao Yi didn't hide anything from him, and briefly explained the perilous situation Traversing Water Palace was facing.
If the Cultivation Palaces were to clash against each other, the number of participants would be at least two hundred thousand. In this day and age, this wasn't a common occurrence. After all, it wasn't easy for a cultivator to cultivate to the Purple Lotus realm. Unless there was an insurmountable obstacle, or if they weren't completely confident in their chances, no one would take such a risk.
"A battle between the three palaces!" Yan Beihong gasped in shock. His eyes glowed with excitement as he asked, "Doesn't that mean there will be close to a hundred and fifty Red Lotus cultivators and above participating in the battle?"
"That's for sure!" Miao Yi was taken aback. He looked at Yan Beihong suspiciously and asked, "Why do I feel like you're a little excited? You're not gloating over my misfortune, are you? "
"Uhh … haha!" Yan Beihong laughed drily and waved his hand. "No, no. How could I be gloating over my Little Brother's misfortune? It's just that such a spectacle is rarely seen in the cultivation realm these days. It's rare to see it even once every ten thousand years. A battle between hundreds of thousands of cultivators! Just the thought of it makes my blood race. Unfortunately, it's unlikely that such a grand occasion will happen in my First Earthly Branch! "
'Blood race? Grand occasion? ' Miao Yi was speechless. 'You're not the one participating in the battle, so you can stand on the sidelines and make sarcastic remarks …'
Traversing Wood Palace. Advisor Shang Liuhuan was by Cheng Aofang's side. The two of them strolled through the beautiful gardens, colorful butterflies fluttering around them from time to time.
After listening to Shang Liuhuan's report, Cheng Aofang muttered, "This Loose Cultivator Miao Yi became the Cave Master when he was only a White Lotus First Grade cultivator?"
"That's right!" Shang Liuhuan nodded and said, "Rumor has it that it was the Manor Head who stood his ground against the objections of the masses and made an exception to promote this surrendered soldier. However, what happened afterwards also proved that the Manor Head had a keen eye for talent. This Miao Yi had contributed greatly to South Edict Manor on several occasions. There was one time when he set up a trap for the Manor Head of a neighboring manor. Just as the Manor Head was about to fall, it was this Miao Yi who turned the tide at the most crucial moment and saved the situation. Later on, when the people from the neighboring halls provoked him, this Miao Yi managed to defeat them time and again with just his Cave. After that, a traitor from South Edict Manor defected to Suppressing Third Hall. Once again, this Miao Yi was ordered to lead twenty riders on a long-distance raid. He slaughtered his way into the heart of the manor and brought back the traitor's head. What's more, he did it in a subtle manner, causing Suppressing Third Hall to suffer in silence … "
After that, he left Traversing Moon Palace and came to Traversing Water Palace to become a Manor Head. He immediately massacred the neighboring Tranquil Sun Manor and broke the rules of Traversing Water Palace. How could he have gotten away unscathed? After that, he disappeared for over eighty years, never to be seen again. This time, when Traversing Water Palace was in danger, he suddenly reappeared. He was immediately promoted to Hall Master of Suppressing First Hall, the Hall Master of Traversing Water Palace's Main Hall. "" That's right. You can't believe that he actually made it back alive. After that, he jumped out of Traversing Moon Palace and went to Traversing Water Palace to become a Manor Head. He massacred the neighboring Tranquil Sun Manor and broke the rules of Traversing Water Palace. Cheng Aofang followed her train of thought and explained, then turned to Miao Yi and asked, "Am I right about this Miao Yi's promotion?"
Shang Liuhuan smiled and said, "It's like this. This guy is a little interesting."
"A little interesting?" Cheng Aofang asked, "Don't you think it's strange? Before this Miao Yi appeared, the entire Traversing Water Palace was in a state of panic, and they had no way to deal with him. After this guy reappeared, he was suddenly promoted to Hall Master, and Traversing Water Palace immediately made a major decision. Traversing Water Palace, which didn't have the guts to resist, actually decided to take the initiative to attack. Then, this guy came over to negotiate with us. Now that I think about it, this guy was the one who controlled the pace of the negotiations. He was leading us by the nose! "
Shang Liuhuan nodded and said, "Palace Lord, are you saying that this guy was the one who orchestrated the biggest change in Traversing Water Palace recently?"
"I wasn't too sure before. After all, I didn't know much about this guy. That's why I asked you to look into it. Now, it looks like it's most likely him." Cheng Aofang suddenly chuckled and said, "Is this because he knows that Traversing Water Palace is powerless to reverse the situation, so he's giving us a chance to make a comeback?"
A few days later, Tao Qingli, Zhao Fei, and Miao Yi arrived at Traversing Wood Palace together to officially sign the Commandment of Conformity they had agreed upon earlier.
After sitting down and exchanging a few pleasantries, Miao Yi handed the jade archive to Cheng Aofang and said, "Palace Lord Cheng, please take a look and see if you have any objections. If not, please sign it."
Unexpectedly, Cheng Aofang took the jade archive and read through it, then placed it to the side and said, "I don't have any major objections. However, I would like to add one more condition."
Miao Yi frowned and looked at this woman warily. He had no idea what she was up to.
Tao Qingli probed, "May I know what other conditions Palace Lord Cheng has?"
