Dead? He couldn't be saved? Whispers could be heard from the crowd. They had not expected that even after using the Glorious Star Immortal Grass, he would still not be saved.
Dead? Miao Yi narrowed his eyes and grabbed the wine jug. Realizing that it was empty, he immediately beckoned to the waiter beside him and said, "Bring me some wine!"
On one hand, he was cursing madly and sorrowfully, but on the other hand, he was drinking to celebrate.
Ji Dehai invoked his arts to collect Bai Ziliang's corpse, then forcefully restrained Ji Meimei and took her away.
Looking at Ji Meimei, who was bawling her eyes out, the Lady Boss had a sorrowful look on her face. She and Ji Meimei had some similarities. They both had the same illustrious background. Both of them had fallen in love with a man they shouldn't have. It could even be said that Ji Meimei had followed in her footsteps. The Lady Boss could understand Ji Meimei's grief the best. It was the despair of having one's last shred of hope shattered.
The Lady Boss didn't know if falling in love with Miao Yi now was the same as falling in love with a man she shouldn't have. She didn't want to think about it.
Even though she sympathized with Ji Meimei, she also knew that there were some matters of life and death. Either Bai Ziliang would kill Miao Yi, or Miao Yi would kill Bai Ziliang. Of course, she would rather choose the latter and hope that her lover would live on. At the very least, there was still someone who could stop Miao Yi from killing Bai Ziliang before he died. If it was Miao Yi who was about to die, no one would be able to stop him. She wouldn't be able to stop him even if she ran out regardless of the consequences. That was why she was glad that Miao Yi was still alive.
"Yan Beihong is the winner of the first match!" An inexplicable voice called out. "Who would like to challenge Yan Beihong?"
"Yun Feihuang is here!" The Devil Nation shouted. Yun Feihuang appeared on the battlefield and pointed at Miao Yi, shouting, "Yan Beihong! Do you dare fight me?!"
Initially, none of the officials were willing to put on a show for Feng Beichen. However, Bai Ziliang had jumped out and dragged Miao Yi into a duel. Now that the Celestial Nation had won, the nature of the situation had changed.
The Lady Boss's expression froze, and she immediately panicked. Her own little brother actually wanted to fight to the death with her man!
Yun Feihuang? Yun Feiyang? Miao Yi was taken aback. He swept his gaze across the Lady Boss, whose face was filled with anxiety, and immediately understood what was going on. He slowly stood up and left his seat, his hand gripping the spear that was stuck in the ground.
Hey! The spectators immediately became spirited. There was going to be a good show to watch.
Miao Yi drew the spear and invoked his arts to inspect the Supreme Fire Crystal inside. The Supreme Fire Crystal had been greatly depleted in the battle just now, and the Qilin head that had been hollowed out was almost completely depleted. If he were to continue using it as intensely as he did just now, he wouldn't be able to use it more than a few times.
None of that mattered. More importantly, after he started fighting with Yun Feihuang, the one he was most worried about was the Lady Boss.
The Qilin Spear entered his storage ring, and his suit of armor also transformed into a black mist before entering his storage ring. After removing his armor, Miao Yi said in a clear voice, "Yun Feihuang, you win. I admit defeat!"
It could be said that he had directly given up on the 30 Basic Immortal Pills.
As the sound of his voice rang out, the entire crowd was in an uproar. The upper echelons of the Immortal Empire were all staring at Yan Beihong. Yue Tianbo was the first to speak in a low voice, "Yan Beihong. Have you lost your mind? "
'Are you kidding me? You're currently representing the Celestial Nation. The Devil Nation has issued a challenge, and you're actually admitting defeat? ' Wouldn't that mean that the Celestial Nation was admitting defeat to the Devil Nation? You should bring out the courage you had when you fought Bai Ziliang just now and fight to the death without retreating! 'Did you even ask for our permission to admit defeat? '
Beside him, Zhuang Youwen stared at him with his mouth agape. He thought to himself, 'Aren't you a little too bold? You should at least ask for permission from the upper echelons to admit defeat.'
Miao Yi knew that the upper echelons would never ask him to admit defeat. He could only do so himself. Admitting defeat would be beneficial to him as a person.
Cheng Aofang's expression twitched. She had been utterly humiliated today. More importantly, the Celestial Nation didn't bring any Red Lotus cultivators to save the day. Even if they did, they might not be a match for Yun Feihuang's Unparalleled Devil Art. Judging from the battle between Miao Yi and Bai Ziliang just now, Miao Yi was probably the only one who could put up a fight. Miao Yi was probably the only one who could put up a fight. The other Red Lotus cultivators wouldn't stand a chance.
The other nations didn't expect the Celestial Nation to admit defeat. Aside from winning and losing, when had the six nations ever publicly admitted defeat?
Miao Yi turned to him and cupped his fists, saying, "Overlord, I have expended a lot of transcendence energy in the battle just now. I can't even fight anymore. I will definitely lose if I go on stage! "
"You …" Yue Tianbo pointed at Miao Yi, not knowing what else to say. He didn't expect Miao Yi to come up with such an excuse. If he continued to force Miao Yi to fight, he would be held responsible if Miao Yi lost. He flung his sleeves and scoffed.
Even though the Lady Boss didn't know what they were talking about, she could imagine that Miao Yi must be under immense pressure from the upper echelons. She believed that she understood why Miao Yi didn't want to fight. It was for her sake! Otherwise, he wouldn't have admitted defeat right after declaring himself invincible in the Red Lotus realm. It would be a slap to her own face.
The Lady Boss bit her lip. She was extremely touched. At least she didn't let him take advantage of her last night for nothing. She loved this guy to death!
On the Devil Nation's side, Cloud Leopard was just getting ready to watch his son fight for the Devil Nation's honor. He was speechless.
Below the stage, Yun Feihuang was stunned for a long time. He then pointed at Miao Yi and bellowed, "Yan Beihong! What do you mean I won? I won't take advantage of you. Come down and fight me! "He felt that he had been humiliated. Miao Yi didn't even want to fight him.
When she heard this, the Lady Boss clenched her fists. She had the urge to rush down and strangle this guy to death!
After dealing with the Celestial Nation's side, Miao Yi couldn't be bothered with Yun Feihuang anymore. He returned to his seat and nodded at the Exquisite Refinement Sect's Sect Master.
Since Miao Yi had already admitted defeat, he could only regretfully announce, "Yun Feihuang is the victor. Who is willing to come down and challenge him?"
If no one wanted to challenge him, who would? Originally, the Six Nations were in a difficult position because of Bai Ziliang's actions. Now that the Celestial Nation's side was over, the other nations also had a way out. So be it. There was no point in fighting anymore. Proper business was more important.
No one from the Six Nations was willing to step up. Putting aside the question of whether or not those from the other sects could win, even if they could, they wouldn't dare to step up.
As such, Zong Zhen realized that Miao Yi admitting defeat wasn't necessarily a bad thing. After all, Miao Yi wasn't a member of the Realm Beyond Heaven. Just because Miao Yi admitted that his skills were inferior didn't mean that the Realm Beyond Heaven was inferior. Even though he had embarrassed the Celestial Nation, Miao Yi was the only one to bear the responsibility.
"Who dares to challenge me?!" Yun Feihuang circled around the stage, trying to find someone to vent his anger on. However, when he realized that no one was paying attention to him, he turned around and continued to provoke Miao Yi, "Yan Beihong, you coward! Do you dare to fight me?!"
His words made the Lady Boss grit her teeth in anger. She thought to herself, 'Just you wait. Miao Yi doesn't even need to do anything. I'll personally cripple you later!'
Behind the veil, Feng Beichen naturally understood what everyone was thinking. He smiled and said, "What a pity. A good show is over just like that."
In the end, Mo Wen loudly announced, "First place, Yun Feihuang!"
Yun Feihuang didn't hold back. He stood in the middle of the stage and extended his hand, "Hand over the prize!" It was impossible for him to run up and thank the Sect Master for his reward.
With a wave of Mo Wen's hand, thirty Basic Immortal Pills shrouded in a purple glow flew out from the tray.
In the middle of the stage, Yun Feihuang spread out his hand and sucked the pills into his palm, folding them into the shape of a pagoda. Then, he spun around in circles to show off to the crowd. He invoked his arts and said proudly, "This is a bargain. I didn't even do anything, and I already got a bunch of prizes. Unlike some people who fought with their lives on the line, and not only did they not get anything, they even offended someone. How pathetic!"
The Lady Boss's lips curled up into a cold smile. 'Let's see how you're going to swallow this!
As the saying goes, 'Those who aren't part of the same family don't go through the same door. This idiot is really similar to that idiot Yun Feiyang!' The corner of Miao Yi's lips curled up slightly as well. He thought to himself, 'I'll use your sister's body to pay for this bargain later. I'll definitely get back what you owe me with interest.'
Ba Jie fiddled with his rosary beads as he glared at the domineering Yun Feihuang. He thought to himself, 'Brat, don't be so arrogant. Don't run into my hands. I'll remember this for now. If I don't skin you alive in the future, I'll change my surname to yours!'
However, most of the people were coveting the item in Yun Feihuang's hand. They could only watch as Yun Feihuang gleefully returned to the laughing crowd atop the Devil Nation's mountain peak.
"The first place has been decided. The competition for the next two places will be postponed for now. Let's get back to the main topic first." Mo Wen pointed at the Exquisite Pagoda and said, "Lie Huan is still inside the pagoda, unable to free himself. May I know who else will enter the stage to appraise the treasure?"
Everyone's attention was immediately focused on the Exquisite Pagoda. Whatever prize or Bai Ziliang's death was immediately thrown to the back of their minds. Aside from those who were directly involved in Bai Ziliang's death, such as his mother, Ji Meimei, no one else really cared about Bai Ziliang's death.
For example, if someone's house on the neighboring street was burned down, everyone would at most sigh and sigh, or sympathize with the person at the time, but they would go back to their own lives after a night's sleep. How many people would remember to pay for the rebuilding of the house?
This was especially true for the Six Nations. The Exquisite Pagoda was the main topic at hand. Bai Ziliang's death wouldn't affect the overall situation.
Seeing that no one was responding, Mo Wen loudly said, "Everyone, please be at ease. You are all esteemed guests who have come from afar. The Artifact Appraisal Conference is only for the appraisal of treasures. We do not have any intention of harming anyone. Please feel free to enter the venue!"
His words sounded nice, but who would believe him? Supreme Yao Lord Lie Huan had gone in and still hadn't come out. Who knew what was going on? The Six Nations were enemies. If anything were to happen, Feng Beichen would definitely not be held responsible. Even Supreme Yao Lord Lie Huan had been suppressed for so long. No one was willing to risk their lives.
However, the Six Nations did indeed want to investigate the Exquisite Pagoda.
Some of the Yao Kings in the Sea of Constellations were tempted to make a move. After all, they were on Lie Huan's side. However, Supreme Yao Lord Hu Junzi managed to dissuade them. "Everyone, calm down. The other five nations will definitely find a way to investigate. The more people we send in, the more dangerous it will be. They might even wipe us all out in one fell swoop. Don't think they won't dare to do so. Only by preserving our strength will we be able to intimidate them. Lie Huan might actually be fine! "
As soon as he said this, the other Yao Kings agreed with him. They restrained themselves and stayed put.
The other five nations were indeed prepared to send their people in to investigate as well. They couldn't continue wasting time like this. On the Celestial Nation's side, Zong Zhen swept his gaze across his subordinates and asked, "Who is willing to investigate the Exquisite Pagoda?"
