After Lu An left the stage, Gu Yi's expression was not good. Although Gu Yi seemed to be respectful to him, his last sentence made him angry.
Moreover, what did this young man want to give to Zhang Yun? Why did he have to give it to him in private? After thinking about it, Gu Yi came to Zhang Yun's side with a wine cup and said, "Brother Zhang, I think this kid came to this celebration with bad intentions. We can't fall into his trap."
"Brother Gu, you worry too much." Zhang Yun smiled and said, "You and I are here, and there are so many experts. Even if Purple Lake City's army comes, we won't be afraid. What other tricks can he have?"
"Even so, we still have to be careful," Gu Yi said. He was about to go back and sit down, but after thinking about it, he said to Zhang Yun, "Brother Zhang, you and I are allies. No matter what this kid says to you in private, don't forget our agreement."
"Of course." Zhang Yun smiled and said, "I'm still waiting for the Black Water Diamond Pill that Brother Gu promised to give me! Even if Purple Lake City takes out a good gift, it can't be compared to Brother Gu's generosity. "
Gu Yi smiled. That's right, as long as Zhang Yun had the Black Water Diamond Pill, he would not break the agreement. He raised his cup and said, "Cheers."
"Cheers." Zhang Yun clinked his cup and drank.
Lu An, who had already walked down the stage and returned to the banquet, saw this scene from the corner of his eye, and his eyes became deeper.

It was close to evening when the incense burned out.
Lu An was brought to the Sect Master's study by the Revered Heaven Sect's disciples. He sat on a chair and waited quietly. As the Sect Master, Zhang Yun had many things to do, so he was not in a hurry. He was thinking about what to say when they met. Even though he had two medicinal pills in his hands, he still had to grasp the propriety of using them.
Suddenly, Lu An opened his eyes because he heard footsteps nearby. He immediately turned his head and looked to the right. Sure enough, the door was pushed open at the same time.
Seeing Zhang Yun walk in, Lu An stood up and said politely, "Greetings, Sect Master Zhang."
Seeing Lu An here, Zhang Yun was not surprised. He closed the door, walked to the seat behind the desk and sat down. He said, "Tell me, what do you want to give me in private?"
Lu An thought for a moment and said, "Sect Leader Zhang, can you set up a Bounded Domain? I'm afraid that the walls have ears and only the two of us can hear our conversation."
Hearing that, Zhang Yun frowned. He raised his hand and instantly, a wave of lightning appeared, wrapping around the study, forming a barrier. At the same time, Gu Yi, who was a hundred feet away from the study, frowned and clenched his fists.
"Enough." Zhang Yun said impatiently, "Tell me what it is. If I find out what it is, I'll take your life!"
"Junior naturally wouldn't dare to deceive Senior," Lu An looked at Zhang Yun and said calmly, "Senior naturally knows why Junior is here. On behalf of Purple Lake City, I hope that Senior can stand on Purple Lake City's side and fight against the Frenzy Army with us. "
"For this …" Lu An interrupted Zhang Yun, who was about to say something. He took out a pill from his ring and opened it in his palm. He said softly, "Purple Lake City is willing to trade this Black Water Diamond Pill."
Zhang Yun's body shook and he immediately stood up. He stared at the black pill in Lu An's hand!
Black Water Diamond Pill!
From the rich pill fragrance that was emitted when this pill appeared, it was indeed the Black Water Vajra Pill! He never expected that a mere Purple Lake City would be able to take out such a pill!
Zhang Yun looked up at Lu An with a gloomy expression. He sneered and said, "Thank you for giving me another Black Water Diamond Pill. Although I don't know how you found out, it seems like you also know about my deal with Gu Yi. However, I will take your pill and help Zhang Yun attack Purple Lake City. This way, I will have two pills! "
Lu An was not worried. Instead, he laughed. Zhang Yun frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at? Aren't you afraid?"
"Of course I am." Lu An smiled and said, "However, I am more afraid that Senior will get one less pill."
"What do you mean?" Zhang Yun asked coldly.
"If Senior is willing to stand on Purple Lake City's side, I will give you another Black Water Diamond Pill in addition to the one in my hand." Lu An said softly, "As long as Senior kills Gu Yi, you will be able to obtain three pills. They are extremely beneficial for your cultivation."
Zhang Yun's body shook and he asked with a frown, "You have another one?"
"That's right." Lu An said, "Purple Lake City does not want to offend anyone and will not lie."
"…"
Zhang Yun frowned as he looked at the Black Water Diamond Pill in Lu An's hand. This pill was so close to him that he could reach it. He was not in a hurry at all. However, if he could really get his hands on three Black Water Diamond Pills, it would be a great thing for him.
He had been stuck in his current realm for who knows how many years and had not advanced any further. It was as if he was lost in the sea and could not find his way. For an expert like him, this was unacceptable. He had long been unable to suppress his desire to advance. Otherwise, he would not have suddenly taken action and participated in other people's war.
However, if he really wanted to stand on Purple Lake City's side, he would have to go against Gu Yi. If it was just Gu Yi, he would not be worried. The key problem was that the person behind Gu Yi was the Great General of the Heavenly Dragon Empire. Although Level Eight Heavenly Masters could not casually attack him, he would not be able to withstand it even if they sent many Level Seven Heavenly Masters to surround him.
He could indeed hide, but the Revered Heaven Sect could not. In other words, he was using the entire Revered Heaven Sect as a bet. The Revered Heaven Sect was founded by his father. Was he going to abandon it?
Zhang Yun frowned. On one hand, he could improve his strength. On the other hand, it was the survival of the Revered Heaven Sect.
"Senior, the longer one's strength stays at a certain level, the less likely it is to improve. I'm sure senior is aware of this." Lu An suddenly opened his mouth and said softly, "Please forgive this junior for speaking bluntly. Senior, please do not delay your cultivation because of a moment's choice."
"…"
Hearing this, Zhang Yun's frown deepened. He raised his head and looked at Lu An and said, "Is this the will of the Purple Lake City's City Lord?"
"Yes." Lu An said.
Zhang Yun took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I need to think about it. Leave the pill here and wait for my news."
Lu An smiled when he heard this. He put the pill back into his ring and said, "There's no need for that. I can't run away from here anyway. If senior agrees to stand on Purple Lake City's side, this junior will naturally give you the pill with both hands. If you do not stand on Purple Lake City's side, you only need to inform this junior. This junior will also give you the pill before leaving. However, at that time, I hope senior can spare my life. "
After saying this, Lu An cupped his hands and said to Zhang Yun, "Senior, please reconsider. This junior will take his leave."
After saying this, Lu An turned and left the study room, leaving Zhang Yun alone in the study room. He did not leave for a long time. After a long time, Zhang Yun suddenly realized something. He could not help but be startled, and his frown deepened.
"This kid has some ability."

At night, all the guests who did not leave stayed in the courtyard arranged for them to rest. Lu An was no exception. He was brought to a quiet and remote courtyard.
After entering the room and sitting on a chair, Lu An finally could not help but let out a long sigh. The conversation with the Level 7 Heavenly Master was not easy. The reason why he could talk calmly with Yang Meiren was because Yang Meiren would completely retract her aura when facing him. However, neither Zhang Yun nor Gu Yifan would do this. The faintly discernible Heavenly Origin Energy was almost suffocating him.
After panting for a while, Lu An gradually calmed down. Sitting on the chair, he frowned. The words and tone that he spoke to Zhang Yun just now were all planned out. Although his performance was very good, he did not know if he could move the other party.
He was not good at negotiation, especially when compared to Liu Yi, he was pitifully weak. The safety of Purple Lake City depended on him. If he did not succeed, he would blame himself.
Just as Lu An was feeling a little flustered, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the courtyard!
"Lu An, come out!"
Before the voice could finish, Lu An felt a surge of Heavenly Origin Energy sweep through the entire courtyard. Following that, he heard a 'bang bang bang' sound. The windows around him were all shattered.
Lu An frowned. Whether it was the sound or the power, he was not unfamiliar with it. He stood up and looked outside.
He saw Zhang Yutong, who had changed into a capable male outfit, standing in the courtyard, looking at him angrily.
