Three days later.
The members of the Blood Symbol Alliance sat cross-legged in the core area, not a single person left. For three whole days, they didn't mine, nor did they make any movements. Even the scouts in the distance were baffled.
Within these three days, the three factions had already sent news back to Guang Yi City. Today, the leaders of the three factions had all arrived. In other words, there were a total of four level 5 Heavenly Masters in the purple gold mine.
However, the three leaders didn't immediately head to the core area. Instead, they observed the surroundings before coming here. They also wanted to know if there was anything special about the core area, but they couldn't find anything after a round of investigation.
At noon, the leaders of the three factions appeared in the core area under the escort of their subordinates. With the support of their leaders, it was obvious that their subordinates had become more confident.
After sensing the appearance of the three level 5 Heavenly Masters, both Lu An and Liu Zhengtang frowned and opened their eyes.
Liu Zhengtang stood up, and so did Lu An. The surrounding subordinates didn't know what to do when they saw the two leaders stand up. At this moment, everyone heard hurried footsteps.
Sha sha — —
Everyone immediately looked around and discovered that there were about a hundred people coming from three different directions. A total of three hundred people surged forward, surrounding the members of the Blood Symbol Alliance.
Seeing this, the members of the Blood Symbol Alliance immediately stood up and looked at the people surging forward from all directions. They couldn't retreat, not to mention that their leaders hadn't moved. Soon, the three forces arrived at the Blood Symbol Alliance's surroundings and stopped, surrounding them.
Liu Zhengtang's gaze was sharp as he looked at the surrounding crowd. He didn't care about the number of people, he only cared about the three people at the front. At the same time, the three of them were also looking at him.
At this moment, the president of the High Mountain Merchant Association walked out and cupped his hands towards Liu Zhengtang, saying loudly, "I am the president of the High Mountain Merchant Association, Gao Ye. I have long heard of the Blood Symbol Alliance's leader, Liu Zhengtang's fame. Meeting you today, your bearing is indeed extraordinary."
Liu Zhengtang's expression turned cold. He also cupped his hands and said loudly, "So it's president Gao. Excuse me!"
On the other side, the president of the Lide Merchant Association also walked out and cupped his hands, "I am the president of the Lide Merchant Association, He Sanhe. It's a great fortune to be able to meet Alliance Leader Liu here!"
Liu Zhengtang frowned, but he still cupped his hands and said, "Nice to meet you!"
"I am the Alliance Master of the Yuanzhou Alliance, Zhou Bo. Ten years ago, I met Alliance Master Liu once. Today, we meet again. Alliance Master Liu's strength has improved even more." The Alliance Master of the Yuanshan Alliance also stepped forward and said.
Liu Zhengtang frowned. Indeed, he had interacted with Zhou Bo before. At that time, Zhou Bo was still a citizen of Black Wolf City. He was a member of a large alliance. Once, a rare and precious beast appeared in the Evil Mountain. The various large alliances all rushed to get their hands on it. At that time, Zhou Bo also needed it, so he personally took action and snatched it from everyone's hands.
He still remembered that Zhou Bo had already snatched the mystical beast at that time, and the Blood Symbol Alliance's people hadn't managed to get their hands on it. This had forced him to take action and snatch the mystical beast. Later on, he heard that Zhou Bo had broken through to become a Level Five Celestial Master. However, even a Level Five Celestial Master would find it difficult to survive in Black Wolf City. After all, the tripartite balance of power had already been stabilized. It was impossible for him to develop further. Zhou Bo was also very clear about this, so he left Black Wolf City.
Liu Zhengtang also heard that Zhou Bo had established the Yuanzhou Alliance in Guang Yi City. However, there were too few mystical beasts around Guang Yi City. He was afraid that Zhou Bo wasn't having a good time. This meeting could be said to be a meeting between enemies.
Liu Zhengtang took a deep breath and looked at the surrounding crowd. He said loudly to the three leaders, "I wonder what the three of you are doing here with such a large formation? Could it be that you want to fight with our Blood Symbol Alliance? "
Once these words were spoken, the eyes of the Blood Symbol Alliance's people turned cold. These people had all survived the attacks of the mystical beasts. Their bloodlust was even higher than the mystical beasts. Even if they were to encounter an enemy three times their number, they wouldn't be afraid. They all took out their weapons.
In an instant, the light of blades and the shadows of swords appeared. The Blood Symbol Alliance's people all released their auras. A terrifying pressure spread out. The bodies of the three hundred people in the surrounding trembled. They hurriedly released their Heavenly Origin Energy to defend themselves.
Hearing this, Gao Ye frowned and said to Liu Zhengtang, "Alliance Master Liu, you misunderstand. The three of us came here with no evil intentions. We just want to personally ask how this purple gold mine is going to be divided."
"That's right." He Sanhe also said loudly, "Alliance Master Liu has occupied this place but hasn't started mining. Why? Could it be that you've discovered the secret of this place? "
Once these words were spoken, Liu Zhengtang frowned.
Facing the three leaders' questions, Liu Zhengtang took a deep breath and said loudly, "I've said it before. I only want to stay here for half a month. Whether I want to mine or not is my business. After half a month, this place will be yours. My Blood Symbol Alliance will immediately withdraw from this place! "
"As for the reason, I won't tell you. You don't need to know." Liu Zhengtang said sternly, "I can only say this much. If you still want to argue, then there's no need to say anything. Just attack!"
Once these words were spoken, the three leaders frowned and looked at each other. They didn't expect Liu Zhengtang's attitude to be so unyielding. However, he did have the right to be unyielding. Ten years ago, Liu Zhengtang was a famous peak Level 5 Heavenly Master. Although he hadn't become a Level 6 Heavenly Master yet, his strength was definitely more exquisite.
As for the three of them, Gao Ye was a late-stage Level 5 Heavenly Master, while He Sanhe and Gao Ye were both mid-stage Level 5 Heavenly Masters. The higher the level, the greater the gap between each stage. Even if the three of them worked together, they weren't confident that they could defeat Liu Zhengtang.
Once they started fighting, both sides would suffer. If Liu Zhengtang fought with his life on the line, it was very likely that one of them would be killed. They were only here for money. There was no need to put their lives on the line.
The three leaders looked at each other. Gao Ye took a deep breath and said, "Since Alliance Master Liu likes this place so much, we'll give you this place for a period of time. However, half a month is too long. You've already occupied this place for three days. I'll give you seven days at most. After seven days, the Blood Symbol Alliance will leave. We won't interfere! "
Seven days?
Liu Zhengtang frowned. His daughter had already been receiving the inheritance for five days. Adding seven days, it would be twelve days. It was enough time for her to receive the inheritance. However, he didn't answer immediately. Instead, he turned to look at Lu An and asked softly, "What do you think?"
Lu An frowned. He remembered that the person in the black fog said that the duration of receiving the inheritance was related to two aspects. One was the strength of the inheritance left behind by the inheritor, and the other was the inheritor's talent and strength. Twelve days sounded like a lot of time, but what if it didn't end?
Lu An observed Gao Ye's expression carefully. He wanted to know if this person was just putting on an act or if he really wanted to make a move. When he saw the desire in Gao Ye's eyes, he said to Liu Zhengtang, "I agree."
Hearing this, Liu Zhengtang turned to Gao Ye and said loudly, "Alright, I'll give you the core area after seven days!"
Gao Ye's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. However, he didn't show it on his face as he said, "Alliance Master Liu is straightforward. After seven days, I'll prepare a generous gift to send the Blood Symbol Alliance off!"
"You're welcome!" Liu Zhengtang said loudly. "I'm going to stay here, so I won't send you off. Take care!"
The three leaders looked at each other. After Gao Ye nodded, they turned around and left.
The people surrounding them retreated like a receding tide. The people from the Blood Symbol Alliance all let out a long sigh of relief. Liu Zhengtang even let out a sigh of relief and said, "I didn't expect all three of them to come. Luckily, we managed to intimidate them. Otherwise, things would've been difficult."
However, Lu An didn't relax at all. Instead, he kept thinking about Gao Ye's expression.
When Gao Ye turned around and left, there was still an unextinguished desire in his eyes. It was obvious that a reason that could keep a peak Level 5 Heavenly Master here was enough to make him yearn for it. Unlike the other two, Lu An felt that Gao Ye didn't just have an idea, but he would also put it into practice.
"Alliance Master." Lu An opened his mouth and said in a deep voice, "I suggest that we expand our knowledge of the core area and spread our people to every corner of this mountain. Especially at the bottom of the mountain."
Hearing Lu An's words, Liu Zhengtang's body trembled. After thinking for a while, he said, "Alright, to ensure that nothing goes wrong, we'll listen to you!"
