In the Wan Liu Sect's forbidden grounds, Yi Tian was unable to defend himself against Hao Ji and Wan Yang. But even so, Wan Yang could not do anything to him. Although he looked a little angry, he did not flare up immediately.
At this moment, Wan Yang's gaze swept past Yi Tian before sweeping past Hao Ji. He then slowly asked, "Fellow Daoist Hao Ji, since you know this person, why didn't you mention him from the beginning? Don't say that you didn't notice him beforehand. Although I'm obsessed with alchemy, I'm still clear-headed."
When Hao Ji heard this, she looked a little embarrassed. She could only reply with an apologetic expression, "Fellow Daoist Wan, you're exaggerating. Actually, I only just discovered Brother Yi's whereabouts. But then again, Brother Yi's reputation in the Central State has not been prominent for the past hundred years. That's why Fellow Daoist Wan is so unfamiliar with him. To be honest, the two of you have a deep relationship. "
After hearing Hao Ji's words, Wan Yang's expression changed. He immediately looked a little surprised. He then turned his head and locked his gaze on Yi Tian. After carefully staring at him for a while, he did not find any clues.
At the same time, Yi Tian also cast his gaze on Wan Yang. After carefully sizing him up, a smile appeared on his face. After ten seconds, he teased, "Fellow Daoist Hao Ji, you seem to have done a background check on me. I didn't expect to see remnants of my sect everywhere in the Central State. Isn't that right, Fellow Daoist Wan?"
Who knew that Wan Yang would reveal a look of vigilance when he heard this. He said sternly, "I don't know that guy Lu Jinyuan. Brother Yi, don't try to link us together. My Wan Liu Sect is immersed in alchemy. We don't care about the fighting and killing in the cultivation world."
Yi Tian stared at Wan Yang for a while. Although he did not show any emotions on his face, his heart was in turmoil. The person in front of him should have a deep connection with the Li Fire Sect's Elixir Chamber.
After coming back to his senses, he realized that he had not thought about this matter carefully. Back when the Li Fire Sect dominated this world, they had already integrated alchemy and blacksmithing techniques into their sect. To put it bluntly, the ancestors of the remaining sects that refined artifacts and pills were more or less related to the Li Fire Sect.
As for the Great Sun Glorious Sun Sect, it should be an authentic Pill Pavilion. As for the Myriad Flow Sect, their status shouldn't be too bad either. Could it be that the Myriad Flow Sect was located on the ruins of the Ascension Platform? If one were to look deeper, perhaps this branch was left behind to guard the Ascension Platform.
Upon thinking of this, Yi Tian began to sort out his thoughts. Following that, his lips moved a few times as he privately transmitted his voice to Wan Yang, "Fellow Daoist Wan, please don't forget about your sect. I know nothing about the matters between the Great Sun Sect and the Middle State's Li Fire Sect. As for your branch, it seems like you've forgotten the instructions of your ancestors. Even if you don't know, you're innocent. I won't blame you. "
Who would have thought that Wan Yang's face would become as heavy as water when he heard this. He couldn't say anything for a long time. In the end, his lips moved a few times as if he was asking something.
Hao Ji, who was standing by the side, ignored him. She only looked at Yi Tian with her beautiful eyes. It was unknown what she was thinking.
Asking a question in front of Hao Ji was not xenophobic, but at this moment, Yi Tian couldn't care less. Although he owed her a small favor, the Ascension Platform was of great importance, so he had to be careful.
Moreover, Tong Yang's words just now had the intention of tricking him. Yi Tian was also gambling to see what expectations Tong Yang had for the Zu Bloodline.
If Wan Yang was willing to speak, it would at least prove that his guess was correct. What followed next would depend on his attitude.
He believed that after the Middle State's Li Fire Sect's Lu Jinyuan's actions, many of the people from the branch lineage who were left outside would be disheartened. It would not be easy to gather them back together again. However, reviving the Li Fire Sect would require their support. He felt helpless about this. He had been a tyrant for less than a hundred years, but the people under him were disheartened. He could only show his might for a while.
And the Way of the King that he pursued was the foundation that could maintain the Li Fire Sect's prosperity. Hence, he could only appease people like Wan Yang.
Sure enough, Wan Yang was also a sly old fox. He didn't want to say anything else and only asked about the Sect Master's token. Yi Tian's face didn't reveal anything, but his heart was filled with joy. It seemed that these disciples of the remnant bloodline still valued 'legitimacy'.
Immediately, he did not say anything else. His lips moved slightly once again. After Wan Yang understood, he turned to Hao Ji and said, "Fellow Daoist Hao Ji, it's our honor to have you come personally to request for medicine." He took out a jade bottle and handed it to her before saying, "This is the Nascent Strengthening Pill that you got me to refine. Although it's not a supreme-grade pill, it's still one of the best. It's enough for you to use."
After Hao Ji received the jade bottle, she slowly kept it in her bag. Following that, she sized up Wan Yang in front of her, as though she wanted to send him off. She knew that the two people in front of her had something to discuss, but it was indeed inconvenient with outsiders around.
She turned her beautiful eyes and gently cupped her hands to thank Wan Yang. Then, she sent a few voice transmissions to Yi Tian before standing up to bid him farewell.
Although Wan Yang knew of Hao Ji's little actions, he ignored it. Following that, he got up and sent her out of the Wan Liu Sect. Instead, he left Yi Tian alone in the forbidden zone, as though he did not care at all.
Fifteen minutes later, Yi Tian's perception sensed that Wan Yang had rushed back. He walked straight to the front of the cottage and began inspecting the spirit runes on the stone platform.
After a gust of wind whistled past his ears, he saw Wan Yang standing not far in front of him. Although he looked calm, it was as though he had not completely removed his guard.
In response, Yi Tian just smiled and stretched out his right index finger. A wisp of white flame lit up at his fingertip, causing the surrounding temperature to more than double.
Wan Yang was someone who knew what was good for him. He stared at the flame for a while before blurting out, "Sect Master's Nanming Li Fire. You really are the successor of the Dong Ao Bloodline. However, even so, you can't prove your identity as the sect master."
Hearing this, Yi Tian only smiled slightly. Then, he put away the Primordial Fire and took out a one-foot bronze mirror. Then, he used the Nanming Primordial Fire to envelop the mirror. Instantly, a white light shot out from the mirror and froze the figure of the other party.
Wan Yang's face suddenly revealed a trace of panic. His spirit force was imprisoned, and Yuanying couldn't move at all under the white light. After three breaths of time, the white light disappeared. Wan Yang felt his spirit force return to normal, and there was no longer any obstruction in his circulation.
At this moment, he heard Yi Tian say slowly, "Senior Brother Wan, with the sect's token, the Supreme Sky Mirror, here, does this junior brother's position as the sect master is justified?"
"Indeed, Junior Brother Yi is able to tour the sect's token and cultivate a direct mystic technique to such an extent. It is reasonable for me to address you as sect master." Wan Yang said with a look of fear, "However, it is not easy to revive the sect. Just the Central State branch's Lu Jinyuan is a stumbling block in front of you. There are also many sects around that are eyeing our Li Fire Sect. If our Li Fire Sect shows any signs of revival, we will definitely be suppressed by them."
