Upon coming to this realization, Yi Yun sneered inwardly. Prince Boundless Heaven had a grudge with him to begin with. He yearned for Yi Yun's death, so how could Yi Yun miss out on this opportunity to kick him while he was down? Prince Boundless Heaven did not wish to approach him so abruptly, which was why he had established a relationship with Ren Yunzong. This group of people completely treated him as a piece of juicy meat.
"Sect Master Yi, they do not come with friendly intentions. Think carefully," warned Jing Yueyin.
She was experienced and could tell that Chu Pingyun did not appear to be a good person.
"Thank you for your warning, Senior Jing Yueyin. I know what I'm doing," said Yi Yun.
Jing Yueyin nodded. She was waiting to see how Yi Yun would deal with the situation.
Martial cultivation required talent and opportunities. One needed to have extraordinary wits. If one was too rash or stupid, they would often die a tragic death.
The present situation could be said to be extremely terrible for Yi Yun. The Pillheart Sect was eyeing him covetously from the outside, while the Dao Calamity Overseer and other factions were waiting for him inside. If he did not handle the situation well, he would be devoured whole.
Jing Yueyin wanted to see if Yi Yun could still act appropriately in such a perilous situation. In fact, Jing Yueyin felt that even if she were in Yi Yun's shoes, she would not fare any better!
"Sect Master Yi, if necessary, just let go of the opportunities you have. Where there's life, there's hope," advised Jing Yueyin.
She felt that with Yi Yun's talent, he would have a limitless future as long as he lived on.
"I understand."
Yi Yun smiled slightly and cupped his fists at Chu Pingyun. He said, "Brother Chu, what are you saying? I can't accept these two Godly Monarch Immortal Annuli. My life has been saved by you. I'm already extremely grateful, so how can I accept your Godly Monarch Immortal Annuli?"
Yi Yun's tone was sincere. Jing Yueyin was slightly taken aback when she heard that. What did Yi Yun mean by that? Was he really hoping that the Dao Calamity Overseer would send him out of the Heavenly South Great World?
Although she had warned Yi Yun not to be too fixated on the opportunities, she did not tell him to hand over all the opportunities to the Dao Calamity Pagoda. That was asking a tiger for its skin. It would be a fool's dream to try and take advantage of the Dao Calamity Pagoda.
Even Chu Pingyun was taken aback. Yi Yun was that easygoing? He had just made an opening statement and he had already come forward. Not only did he agree to all of his conditions, he did not even want the two Godly Monarch Immortal Annuli. How afraid of death was he!?
"This punk has probably been unable to eat or sleep well because of the Pillheart Sect. I thought he wouldn't know what's good for him and demand an exorbitant price from me. I never expected him to be so useless. He agreed immediately and is already begging my Dao Calamity Pagoda to save him."
Upon seeing Yi Yun's lack of backbone, Chu Pingyun revealed a look of contempt for him. The Dao Calamity Pagoda had previously investigated Yi Yun and gave him quite a good evaluation. It described him as a 'young hero' and a 'future alchemist sage.' But now, from the looks of it, Yi Yun was nothing more than an idiot who was afraid of death.
"Prince Boundless Heaven, did you have a feud with this person?"
Chu Pingyun sent a Yuan Qi voice transmission to Prince Boundless Heaven. Yi Yun's actions left him in disdain but for the sake of his own interests, he had no choice but to feign civility with Yi Yun.
"Don't compare me to him. This Yi Yun only picked up some opportunities. He is trash to begin with. Even if he obtained treasures, it would be useless. It's just the Pillheart Sect, yet you are so afraid. Brother Pingyun, we previously agreed that the divine cauldron would be yours and the Spirit Jade would be mine. Furthermore, the heritage would be lent to me to study for half a year. Don't you forget that! "
"Of course!" Chu Pingyun nodded. "Once we obtain the item, our Dao Calamity Pagoda will cripple Yi Yun's dantian. When the time comes, we will send him to Your Highness's residence. Your Highness can do whatever you want with him."
After Chu Pingyun sent the voice transmission, he looked at Yi Yun and continued beaming. He said, "Young Master Yi, there's no need to stand on ceremony. My Dao Calamity Pagoda promised to give you two Godly Monarch Immortal Annuli. We will definitely not mistreat you."
Seeing how Chu Pingyun was conversing with Yi Yun with a smile that hid a hidden dagger, Jing Yueyin could not bear to watch any further. What was Yi Yun planning? Did he really trust Chu Pingyun?
"Brother Chu, don't say that. As the saying goes, treasures belong to the capable. Although I obtained the ancient heritage, I do not have the strength to protect it. Handing it over to the Dao Calamity Pagoda is also making the best use of it. Brother Chu, you have helped me. I will be satisfied if I can keep tens of millions of Spirit Jade for my own expenses. By the way, the items in this ring should also be given to you."
As Yi Yun spoke, he handed Chu Pingyun an interspatial ring.
The interspatial ring looked ancient and unadorned. Chu Pingyun's heart stirred. Yi Yun was going to give him something just like that?
Wasn't Yi Yun way too dumb!?
In the eight to nine centuries of his life, Chu Pingyun had committed many murders and robberies. However, this was the first time he was encountering such a dumb prey!
Chu Pingyun received the interspatial ring without a change in expression. He scanned it with his perception and found all sorts of scrolls inside. They looked like they had experienced countless years. Many of the array formations in the scrolls were already damaged. It left Chu Pingyun astounded.
Even though he usually did not show his emotions, he was overjoyed. Had he obtained it just like that?
He probed some of the scrolls with his perception and felt that they were enveloped by an ancient and boundless aura. It was an aura that belonged to a peerless expert!
And because of this aura, Chu Pingyun's perception was unable to see the contents of the scrolls clearly. He only felt that there were dense ancient text inside. It was like a mountain covered in fog, appearing surreal at the same time.
Chu Pingyun really wanted to laugh out loud. He never expected that after so many years, the scrolls would still retain the remnant aura of an ancient expert. It was truly extraordinary.
He was eager to probe the scrolls. Of course, he had to kill Yi Yun before that.
However, he never expected Yi Yun to hand over the item so easily. It disrupted his plans to deal with Yi Yun. He needed to think it through.
"Sect Master Yi, are you really handing over the heritage to Chu Pingyun?"
Jing Yueyin turned anxious when she saw Yi Yun hand over the interspatial ring. She did not think Yi Yun was a rash person, so why would he do such a thing?
"Senior, don't worry. I know what to do," said Yi Yun with a voice transmission.
Yi Yun said with a voice transmission. At that moment, Jing Yueyin was at a loss for words. She suddenly realized that the perception of many people around them was sweeping towards them, intentionally or otherwise.
Yi Yun's words and his act of handing over the interspatial ring had been noticed by many.
There was no lack of experts at the Heavenly South Peaks Meet's venue!
Jing Yueyin frowned. If Yi Yun was thinking of handing the items over to the Dao Calamity Overseer and letting the Pillheart Sect vie with the Dao Calamity Overseer, he would be too naive.
Be it the Pillheart Sect or the Dao Calamity Overseer, they would not spare Yi Yun!
