The middle-aged man moved his gaze away and said a few words to the old and young duo. Following that, the gorgeously dressed youth stood up and walked towards the Divine Secrets Trading Company's pavilion.
"He's Yan Tiancong. He's Yan Yangping's half-brother, the young master of the Heaven Amplification Trading Company." Ji Shuiyan immediately frowned when she saw Yan Tiancong walk over. A look of disgust suffused her eyes.
Yan Tiancong walked into the pavilion with a cup of tea in his hand. He looked refined and courteous. "Miss Shuiyan, how have you been?"
"What is Young Master Yan doing here?" Ji Shuiyan asked coldly. Yan Tiancong was a sinister person. Although he appeared sanctimonious, he was unscrupulous in his actions. If one were to fall into his hands, they would be devoured until not even their bones were left.
"Miss Shuiyan, there's no need to keep me at arm's length. Our trading company had some unpleasant misunderstandings with Miss Shuiyan's Divine Secrets Trading Company. I, Tiancong, have specially come here to apologize, "said Yan Tiancong with a smile.
"Misunderstanding?" Ji Shuiyan grunted coldly.
Yan Tiancong turned a blind eye to Ji Shuiyan's attitude. He held a cup of tea and said, "Tiancong will replace wine with tea. Cheers as a sign of my apology. I hope Miss Shuiyan will be magnanimous enough to forgive me."
Ji Shuiyan watched expressionlessly as Yan Tiancong drank the tea.
And after Yan Tiancong put down his teacup, Yi Yun realized that Yan Tiancong was looking at him.
"You look unfamiliar. My Heaven Amplification Trading Company and the Divine Secrets Trading Company have been friends for many years. I know everyone from the Divine Secrets Trading Company. Forgive me for being presumptuous, but is this the expert that returned with Miss Shuiyan from the Sun Burial Sandsea? May I know how you met Miss Shuiyan? "Yan Tiancong asked.
Ji Shuiyan's gaze turned cold. Yan Tiancong was clearly here to gather information.
However, since Yi Yun had decided to participate in the Treasure Seeking Meet, he did not plan on hiding his identity. The people from the Heaven Amplification Trading Company naturally guessed that he was the mysterious person.
Yan Tiancong asked about how they got to know each other. Naturally, he was up to no good. If he was certain that Yi Yun was only a guest Elder invited by Ji Shuiyan, he would definitely be tempted by even greater benefits.
As long as the Heaven Amplification Trading Company could offer better conditions …
"Yan Tiancong, you are not welcome here," said Ji Shuiyan.
Yan Tiancong said indifferently, "It looks like Miss Shuiyan is unwilling to accept Tiancong's sincere apology. Actually, Miss Shuiyan, I only wish to get to know this expert. You shouldn't stop me, right?"
Ji Shuiyan looked at Yan Tiancong's face and found him repulsive. Before she could say a word, Yi Yun had already nonchalantly glanced at her and said, "What are you trying to say?"
Yan Tiancong immediately said with a smile, "I'm Yan Tiancong from the Heaven Amplification Trading Company. Although my Heaven Amplification Trading Company has some conflict with you in the past, as the saying goes, no discord, no concord. My Heaven Amplification Trading Company will not fuss over what happened in the past. In Jade Luster City, my Heaven Amplification Trading Company has abundant resources. If you need anything, you can tell us. We only hope that you can become a friend of the Heaven Amplification Trading Company. By the way, may I know your name?"
As Yan Tiancong spoke, he began blatantly poaching her. How could Ji Shuiyan not be infuriated?
"You are not qualified. Scram." Yi Yun waved his hand as though he was swatting away a pesky fly.
The smile on Yan Tiancong's face immediately froze. Yi Yun's voice was neither loud nor soft. Even the people in the surrounding pavilions heard him.
As the young master of the Heaven Amplification Trading Company, he had specially come to greet Yi Yun and addressed him as an expert senior. Yet, not only did Yi Yun not buy it, he had even humiliated him and told him to scram!
Even though Yan Tiancong was a scheming person, his face could not help but twitch. He had never suffered such humiliation before.
"Didn't you hear him? Young Master asked you to scram, "said Ji Shuiyan as well.
Yan Tiancong's expression turned extremely ugly as he turned and walked out of the pavilion. The teacup in his hand turned to ash with a bang.
"Young Master Yi." Ji Shuiyan looked at Yan Tiancong's back and turned to say to Yi Yun, "Yan Tiancong is an extremely sinister person. He will definitely not take your impoliteness lying down."
Yi Yun said nonchalantly, "There was already a feud between us. To such a person, anything that cannot be of use to him is an enemy. So what if I speak nicely?"
"Young Master, you are right." Ji Shuiyan could not help but smile. In fact, she felt that Yi Yun had offended Yan Tiancong too harshly. But from the bottom of her heart, she was delighted to see Yan Tiancong suffer a setback.
Furthermore, what could Yan Tiancong do at the Treasure Seeking Meet, no matter how indignant he was?
"Seven Star Auction Company's Elder Fengxing has arrived!"
At that moment, a voice suddenly drowned out all the chatter in the pavilions. Even the singing and dancing came to a temporary halt.
A figure appeared on top of the tower.
It was an old man dressed in black. His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, and he wore a large black thumb ring on his finger. He sat on an armchair in the hall of the tower, slowly turning the thumb ring in one hand as he looked down.
"This Treasure Seeking Meet is actually hosted by Elder Fengxing …"
Yi Yun noticed that many people in the other pavilions revealed looks of reverence.
"Elder Fengxing's strength is extraordinary. He is also the number one Elder of the Seven Star Auction Company that is permanently stationed in Jade Luster City. It can be said that he is the true ruler of Jade Luster City. It's not an exaggeration to say that he can do whatever he wants in this place," whispered Ji Shuiyan. She looked at Elder Fengxing with deep fear in her eyes. Back when her grandfather was still alive, he had repeatedly exhorted her not to offend the Seven Star Auction Company. In the Sun Burial Sandsea, offending the Seven Star Auction Company was equivalent to courting death.
With the Seven Star Auction Company having such awe-inspiring power, its ruler, Elder Fengxing, was naturally very authoritative. Just sitting there was enough to make all the trading companies in Jade Luster City fall silent out of fear.
Of course, there were also quite a number of people who remained composed. They were from factions other than Jade Luster City.
Yi Yun nodded. As he looked at Elder Fengxing, he felt that he could not fathom his strength. The elder was definitely not simple.
After Elder Fengxing, other experts from outside the Sun Burial Sandsea arrived. Yi Yun could clearly sense that a few of them had extremely high cultivation levels. Their perception easily scanned the area, exuding an intense sense of oppression.
One of them, a middle-aged man, especially attracted Yi Yun's attention.
The middle-aged man was dressed in a light-blue robe and he carried a sword on his back. His aura was converged and he looked no different from a mortal. However, Yi Yun knew that this was because he had cultivated his Sword Dao to the phenomenal success stage, reaching the realm of returning to simplicity.
He was definitely an expert swordsman.
Furthermore, there was an azure-dressed girl beside the middle-aged man. Her long hair was tied into a ponytail, making her look neat and tidy. Her body was taut and her legs were long and powerful. Her gaze was as sharp as a sword. Despite her young age, she was already at the Dao Manifestation realm. Yi Yun was certain that she was a peerless genius.
Yi Yun had been in the Sun Burial Sandsea for so long, but it was rare to see people that he considered geniuses.
He had previously killed several Dao Palace realm warriors. Other than Yi Yun being too strong, his opponents were also too weak.
Many Dao Palace realm warriors only had two or three leaves when they first condensed their Dao fruits. How could they compare with Yi Yun?
However, the azure-dressed girl had probably reached the level of a genius from a reclusive sect. In the Sun Burial Sandsea, she could definitely reign supreme!
Furthermore, the reason why Yi Yun paid special attention to the duo was that he sensed a familiar aura from them.
It was his first time in the Yang God Empyrean Heaven, so it was naturally impossible for him to recognize the duo. The reason why he had such a feeling was because the Yuan Qi they cultivated and the sword aura they exuded was similar to Yi Yun's to a certain extent.
Upon making the connection to the name of the region, Yi Yun had some guesses, but he was not certain.
And while Yi Yun was observing the middle-aged man and the azure-dressed girl, the middle-aged man's gaze was also cast at Yi Yun. There was a strange look in his eyes.
