Huang Qingtian only stared at him for a while, then ignored him. He looked behind the newcomer and saw a group of people quickly approaching.
An Zhengfeng, who had a higher cultivation, had already arrived first, followed by the Lady Boss and the others. Those with higher cultivation didn't abandon those with lower cultivation, and flew in a group.
Below the sand castle, hundreds of people slowly rose up from the billowing dust, standing behind the two Fort Lords.
Looking at the sand castle that had been instantly destroyed into a mess, An Zhengfeng and the lady boss, who arrived one after the other, were speechless.
Wu Duo ignored Miao Yi and coldly glared at the leader of the eight envoys. "Brother Jin, we have no grudges against each other. Don't you think it's a little too much to destroy our sand castle as soon as you arrive?"
Once the sand castle was destroyed, the entire world would know about it. If it weren't for the Subjugation Crusade, they wouldn't have wasted their breath and would have already made their move.
As the Celestial Nation cultivators arrived, they exchanged glances when they saw the state of the sand castle.
Jin Guang was rather displeased that Miao Yi had destroyed their nest the moment he arrived. However, he had already done it. The eight of them had not come here to apologize, so he calmly said, "What a great excuse to say that we have no grudges against each other in the past. I only have one question. Were the tokens of the four Sirs stolen by you?"
As expected, what he feared had come true! Huang Qingtian said, "Jin Guang, what can't we talk about? Destroying our sand castle just for four tokens? Is this what the four hosts want?"
Without waiting for Jin Guang to speak, Miao Yi immediately interrupted, "Fort Lord Huang, are you saying that the tokens of the four Subjugation Crusade Hosts aren't as valuable as your sand castle?"
Huang Qingtian didn't mean it that way at first. Why couldn't they talk things out peacefully? Why did they attack the moment they arrived? However, in front of so many people, it wasn't appropriate for him to speak too softly. After all, the Twin Mighty Ones had ruled over Flowing Clouds Dune Sea for so many years, and they still cared about their reputation. Who would've thought that Miao Yi would take the opportunity to explain on his behalf?
The eight envoys weren't fools either. They didn't care what Miao Yi said, but Huang Qingtian's words were so unyielding that it still angered the eight of them. Each of them revealed hostile looks.
Jin Guang narrowed his eyes. "Huang Qingtian. I only have one question. Did you snatch the tokens of the four lords? "
"Second Brother, if you have something to say, then say it nicely. We're all friends, there's no need to shed all pretense of cordiality." Wu Duo hurriedly advised Huang Qingtian at the right time. He knew that if both sides were to be stubborn with their words, then both sides would definitely be in trouble. Thus, he gave Huang Qingtian a way out of this embarrassing situation.
Huang Qingtian suppressed his anger with great difficulty. The reputation of these eight people back then was too great. Each of them had fought head-on with the Six Sages and survived. None of them were easy to deal with. If they were to fight, he really did not have the confidence. Otherwise, he would not be kind to them just because they had destroyed his sand castle.
He took a deep breath and said, "Golden Light, the four lords' tokens are indeed with us. But it's not what you think. " Pointing at Miao Yi, he continued, "When I was punishing this guy, I accidentally snatched it away. I didn't know that the four lords' tokens were in his storage ring."
The eight envoys looked at Miao Yi, waiting to see how he would confront them. They definitely had to get to the bottom of this. There was no reason for them to act recklessly.
Miao Yi smiled. "Fort Lord Huang, you sure know how to talk. So you accidentally snatched something from me. This is the first time I've heard of someone accidentally snatching something. This Flowing Clouds Dune Sea is truly a good place. Alright then. Since you accidentally snatched it, and the people from the Sea of Constellations are here right now, I hope Fort Lord Huang will give the eight envoys some face and return it to me. I hope it won't be like what I did before, where you unintentionally snatched something from me, and then unintentionally dropped it. "
He tilted his head slightly and shouted at Qiu Li, "Head Steward Qiu, if I remember correctly, I've already reminded you again and again about the items in your storage ring. Yet, you said that I lost my storage ring. You said that Flowing Clouds Dune Sea is so vast, and you said that something was lost after it was dropped. You even guaranteed that I wouldn't be able to find it. Am I right? "
He then extended his hand towards Huang Qingtian and said, "Fort Lord Huang, I'm not a good talker. I'm not as eloquent as the rest of you. Earlier, I accidentally snatched something from you, and then unintentionally beat me up. I even accidentally dropped the item. Anyway, no matter what you say, you're right. I wonder if you can pick it up and return it to me now?"
He then turned to Golden Light and transmitted his voice to the eight envoys, "The token is a small matter. The ingredients for refining the Basic Immortal Pill are the most important. Don't do anything rash. We'll talk about it after I get it back."
The eight envoys glared at Huang Qingtian. No matter how they looked at it, Miao Yi's words made it sound like the Twin Heroes had intentionally snatched the token, and were only waiting for him to give them an explanation.
However, Huang Qingtian was no pushover. He only said, "Nonsense!"
Miao Yi was delighted. 'I was afraid that you'd explain things clearly and then refuse to admit to it.' He immediately nodded and said, "Fort Lord Huang, you're ruthless. You actually refuse to admit to it. Manager An of the Celestial Nation Chamber of Commerce and the Lady Boss of Tempest Tavern both witnessed what happened with their own eyes. Are the two of you willing to testify?"
An Zhengfeng remained silent. He wouldn't get involved in this kind of matter, so he didn't say a word.
The Lady Boss calmly said, "I don't know anything." Even if she wanted to help Miao Yi, she wouldn't openly stand on his side.
"You're ruthless! Just pretend I didn't say anything. "Miao Yi sneered, then extended his hand and said," Let me just say one thing. Are you not going to return the item? "
Wu Duo tilted his head and said, "Qiu Li, return the item to him."
Qiu Li flicked his hand and shot out a storage ring. Miao Yi caught it and quickly invoked his transcendence energy to inspect it. The fifteen praying mantises were still there, but everything else had been messed up. He found a few Star Bells and invoked his transcendence energy to inspect them. When he discovered that the transcendence seals were still inside, he heaved a sigh of relief.
He then went through the other items. The Nine-Eared Exorcism Pestle was still there, along with the transcendent artifacts and the four tokens. As for the other miscellaneous items, he couldn't remember exactly how many there were originally. However, even if there were some discrepancies, they shouldn't be too big.
He summoned the four tokens and shot them towards Golden Light, Li Feng, Ling Tian, and Ben Lei.
The four of them received the tokens and examined them. Miao Yi was right. The tokens had indeed been stolen by the Duo Xiong Duo. After hearing Miao Yi's words, they wouldn't believe that the items had been stolen by accident. The four of them collected the tokens of the four Hosts one after another, then stared coldly at the Duo Xiong Duo.
Golden Light transmitted his voice to Miao Yi, "Have you gotten the materials needed to refine the Basic Immortal Pill?" They had already confirmed that the tokens had been stolen by the Duo Xiong Duo. Putting everything else aside, the matter of the Basic Immortal Pill was of utmost importance. This was something that the four Hosts had instructed them to do, and it was also the main reason why they were dispatched.
Miao Yi flashed over to the eight of them and transmitted his voice over. The eight of them furrowed their brows, but they still gathered around him.
Miao Yi took out a handful of Immortal Apricot cores from his storage ring and secretly showed them to the eight of them. There were only nine of them, but he still said, "Some of my valuable items are missing. But that's not important. What's important is that all of the supplementary ingredients for refining the Basic Immortal Pill are still there. Thank goodness. I reckon they were blind to the value of this item and didn't recognize it. Otherwise, they definitely wouldn't have been able to keep it."
The eight people around him looked at the thing in his hand with suspicion in their eyes. They all muttered to themselves, "What is this thing?"
Golden Light asked suspiciously, "This is the supplementary ingredient for refining the Basic Immortal Pill? Why does it look a little like a fruit core? "
"I say, Right Emissary Jin, what's with that look in your eyes? If you don't recognize it, then don't. Don't act like you do. Take a look and see if you've ever seen a fruit core like this before." Miao Yi scoffed.
The eight of them immediately took a fruit core and fiddled with it. No matter how they looked at it, it looked like a fruit core. However, they couldn't see through the insides of the fruit core with their transcendence arts. Furthermore, it was extraordinarily hard, and they could feel a faint spiritual energy wafting from it as they held it in their hands.
Miao Yi said, "Smell it again. Be careful. Don't let anyone see it."
The eight of them immediately held it in their hands to prevent others from seeing it. They clenched their fists and brought them to their noses to sniff it.
The large group of people hovering in the air watched as the nine of them huddled together and whispered to each other. They didn't know what they were plotting, but judging from the situation, Miao Yi's relationship with the Sea of Constellations was definitely not ordinary!
Yan Beihong simply turned around and shot them a glance.
The Lady Boss, on the other hand, was a little annoyed. She felt that Miao Yi was a little unfathomable. She wondered just how many secrets this guy was hiding. He always managed to surprise her.
On the other hand, Qian'Er, Xue'Er, and the others were secretly amazed. Their master's connections and connections were truly extensive. Even the legendary figures were close to him.
On the other hand, Hong Xiu and Hong Fu sighed inwardly. No wonder Lord Miao was able to obtain thirty thousand Fretless Fruits in one go back then. With his relationship with the Sea of Constellations right in front of them, it would be great if their master could be as flexible as Lord Miao. He wouldn't necessarily be able to last long if he only knew how to fight!
Huang Qingtian and Wu Duo exchanged glances. Their expressions didn't look too good, and their hearts gradually sank. Why was that bastard on such good terms with the Sea of Constellations?
An Zhengfeng's expression didn't look too good either. As an official of the Celestial Nation, Miao Yi was actually on such good terms with a bunch of old demons from the Sea of Constellations. How would that person who was looking for a son-in-law endure this?
Meanwhile, the eight Emissaries were still huddled together with Miao Yi and secretly whispering to each other. They were momentarily distracted by the object in their hands and didn't have the time to pay attention to what others were thinking. After sniffing the fruit core, the eight Emissaries looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.
Miao Yi asked, "Have you seen a fruit core like this before?"
Ling Tian transmitted his voice over, "What a unique fragrance. Just smelling it makes me feel refreshed. There's even a hint of spiritual energy in it."
Jin Guang nodded and said, "It's not a fruit core. There's no doubt that it's a spiritual herb. One look and you can tell that it's something good. It just looks like a fruit core."
Qing Feng asked, "Kid, what exactly is this?"
"Forgive me for not being able to tell you." Miao Yi extended his hand and gestured for them to return it to him.
They exchanged glances. To be honest, they were a little reluctant to do so. However, it was useless for them to keep it, so they could only return it one by one.
Miao Yi put it away and sighed, "Fortunately, I didn't lose it. If I lost anything else, then so be it."
Jin Guang asked, "What's missing?"
