Two days later, at noon, in the High Mountain Chamber of Commerce.
Gao Ye, He Sanhe, and Zhou Bo were all present in the chamber. Gao Ye had summoned the two of them. Gao Ye was the strongest in Guang Yi City, and his relationship with He Sanhe and Zhou Bo wasn't bad.
"May I know why Brother Gao has called us here?" He Sanhe looked at Gao Ye and asked.
Gao Ye glanced at the two of them, stroked his beard, and said, "I've been thinking a lot these two days. Why does the Blood Symbol Alliance want to occupy the core area? They're not mining or doing anything. They're just sitting there. Aren't you curious? "
Hearing Gao Ye's words, He Sanhe and Zhou Bo looked at each other. Zhou Bo said, "I've thought about it, but no matter what, we have to dig. Liu Zhengtang hasn't done anything at all. This is really strange. "
"Indeed. If they don't do anything, I won't be able to guess." He Sanhe nodded and said, "We can only wait for the Blood Symbol Alliance to leave five days later. Then we can investigate."
"Will there be anything left after seven days?" Gao Ye smiled coldly and said, "Liu Zhengtang isn't an idiot. If he agreed to seven days, then he must be confident. After seven days, there won't even be anything left. What can we find?"
"But … we've already agreed. What else can we do?" Zhou Bo frowned and said.
"We can't bring anyone, but we can sneak in." Gao Ye revealed a cunning smile and said, "With our strength, those Level 4 Heavenly Masters won't be able to find us. It's just sneaking into the mountain. What's so difficult for us?"
"But … if we're discovered, won't we be seen as people who don't keep their promises?" He Sanhe frowned and said hesitantly, "The most important thing for us in business is our reputation. If we ruin our reputation for something that doesn't exist, wouldn't the gains outweigh the losses?"
"How can it be something that doesn't exist? Why else would Liu Zhengtang be here?" Gao Ye shook his head and said, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Aren't you guys tempted?"
"…"
Hearing Gao Ye's words, He Sanhe and Zhou Bo looked at each other. After pondering for a long time, the two of them finally nodded.

At night, in the core area.
Liu Zhengtang and Lu An sat cross-legged at the edge of the deep cave. This was already the eighth day. Normally, a legacy would not last this long. Lu An was cultivating at the side, but Liu Zhengtang was not in the mood to do so. He kept looking at the location of the deep hole and frowned.
He was really afraid that something would go wrong with the inheritance. After all, such things had happened before. Moreover, he had also asked Lu An before. It was Lu An who had passed the various tests before the inheritance, not Liu Lan. If the assessment was to determine the lowest level of inheritance, then Liu Lan would be in danger.
Compared to obtaining great strength, he hoped that his daughter could live well. He would never let his daughter take risks. However, since it had already come to this, he was unable to interfere.
At this moment, Lu An heaved a sigh of relief. This period of cultivation was finally over. Liu Zhengtang looked at Lu An when he heard the noise. At the same time, Lu An opened his eyes.
Liu Zhengtang thought for a while and asked, "Lu An, why didn't your master let you accept the inheritance?"
Lu An was startled by the sudden question. He then smiled and said, "My master thinks that I can become strong through my own cultivation, so he didn't let me accept the power of others."
"Is that so?" Liu Zhengtang sighed and said, "It seems that your master is an expert. Even if he meets a disciple with great talent, no one would stop him from accepting the inheritance, right? After all, the threshold of a Level Six Heavenly Master is not that easy to pass. "
Lu An was startled again and looked at Liu Zhengtang.
"To tell you the truth, I was once called a genius." Liu Zhengtang raised his head and sat on the ground, looking at the stars in the sky. He said, "I grew up in Black Wolf City and was always considered the most powerful genius in the academy. Moreover, I was only seen once in a hundred years. After that, I entered the Sacred Ground to cultivate and was also considered a genius. The Sect Leader and the Great Elder thought highly of me. I lived up to their expectations and became a Level Five Heavenly Master at the age of forty. At the peak of Level Five at the age of forty-six. "
"However … I'm fifty-eight this year, but I'm still at the peak of Level Five." Liu Zhengtang shook his head and said with a sigh, "In the past twelve years, my strength has not improved at all. At the beginning, I was burning with anxiety and thought that I had delayed my cultivation time. I even wanted to become a Level Seven or even Level Eight Heavenly Master. But now, I understand that being a genius is just a joke. "
"…"
Lu An frowned. Indeed, there was a huge gap between a Level Five Heavenly Master and a Level Six Heavenly Master. This could be seen from Beauty Yang. He knew the strength of a Level Six Heavenly Master. It was an existence that could fight against the heavens and earth. A Level Five Heavenly Master was far from it.
"Level Six Heavenly Master, I have long given up hope." Liu Zhengtang shook his head and said with a sigh, "If Xiao Lan can successfully accept the inheritance, she will have a great chance of becoming a Level Six Heavenly Master. No matter what, I will owe you a huge favor. When the time comes, no matter what trouble you have, you can come find me. "
Lu An was startled when he heard this. He nodded and said, "Okay."
At this moment, Lu An had been sitting cross-legged on the ground for a long time. He stood up tiredly and said to Liu Zhengtang, "Alliance Master, I will go take a look around."
"Go." Liu Zhengtang nodded and said.
Lu An left the grassland and walked towards the forest outside. At every corner of the core area, there was a person from the Blood Symbol Alliance standing guard every set distance. This way of guarding was very safe. Even if they couldn't see the whereabouts of a Level Five Heavenly Master, they would be able to immediately discover a gap in the ground.
Lu An wasn't tired. He just wanted to personally observe the situation around the core area to prevent any accidents from happening. The mountain wasn't big. It only took half an hour to walk around it. Lu An activated the Nine Suns Blazing Sun and walked in the forest.
"Alliance Master Lu!"
"Alliance Master Lu!"
The people who passed by all saluted Lu An. Lu An also greeted them. However, after walking for less than a quarter of an hour, his footsteps came to a halt.
His eyes turned cold. He felt that there were three people hiding behind three trees not far away.
If he didn't activate the Nine Suns Blazing Sun, Lu An definitely wouldn't have been able to sense their existence. Moreover, there was no one behind the trees. They appeared suddenly. This meant that the speed of these three people far exceeded his strength.
Apart from the leaders of the three factions, Lu An couldn't think of anyone else.
Finally couldn't help but make a move?
However, Lu An didn't immediately show it. Instead, he turned to the Heavenly Masters beside him and said loudly, "You two don't need to guard here. Go to the east and guard with the others. The east is closer to the Mountain Enterprise. I'm afraid that they will attack in the middle of the night. If you find anything strange, report it immediately. Do you understand? "
"Yes!"
Hearing Lu An's words, the two Heavenly Masters who were guarding this area hurried to the east. Lu An didn't continue to stay and walked towards the top of the mountain. Seeing Lu An's departing figure, Gao Ye and the other two looked at each other and smiled.
This also saved them the effort of killing people. Otherwise, they would have to kill both of them before they could enter with ease.
Gao Ye waved his hand at the two, and the three of them immediately appeared in the open space. Now that the three of them were halfway up the mountain, they felt that it was best to scout the center.
Thus, the three of them no longer hesitated and entered the ground.

On the top of the mountain.
Liu Zhengtang, who was still sitting beside the deep hole, suddenly saw a figure rushing towards him. It was Lu An. What was even stranger was that Lu An's eyes were dyed red. His speed was unbelievably fast.
Liu Zhengtang was stunned. Seeing Lu An rushing towards him, he panicked. He quickly frowned and asked, "What's wrong? What's wrong? "
Lu An held his breath and immediately said, "The leaders of the three factions are here. They have already snuck into the mountain!"
"What?!" Liu Zhengtang's body exploded with a 'boom' as a powerful Heavenly Origin Energy exploded from his body. He did not expect that the three of them would go against their word and attack him first!
"Where are they?" Liu Zhengtang roared angrily.
"They have already entered the mountain from the south-west side of the mountain." Lu An said in a deep voice, "I have two suggestions. Either ignore them and enter the deep hole and guard above the Purple Gold Palace. Or catch up with them and fight them directly! "
