Yang Fan paid special attention to the expressions on the faces of Gu Zeyan, Liu Silong, and Wu Dao, the three real big shots.
Seeing that the three of them seemed to be extremely tempted, and that their gazes were occasionally sizing up Zhangsun Jiaci and Shangguan Zhizhen, Yang Fan was immediately relieved.
This was why there were a total of nine people present, but Yang Fan only took out four peak Emperor Rank Golden Soul Refining Pills.
It wasn't that he couldn't afford it, and it wasn't that he wasn't willing to give Gu Zeyan and the other big shots some more benefits.
It was that Yang Fan simply didn't like Zhangsun Jiaci and Shangguan Zhizhen.
Four peak Emperor Rank Goldsoul Refinement Pills that were extremely attractive even to Half-step Monarch Realm experts, yet they were only distributed to Zhangsun Jiaci, Shangguan Zhizhen, Lan Yuanqing, and Yao Puxin who were the Region Lords in name.
The excuse was very natural. It was a thank-you gift, so it naturally had to be more expensive.
But in reality.
Among the four domain lords, Lan Yuanqing was the landlord, the lord of the capital. He was like a local snake, and naturally had the protection of local big shots like Gu Zeyan and Liu Silong.
As for Yao Puxin, although he was an outsider and didn't have any foundation in the capital, he was brought here by Wu Dao. With the protection of Wu Dao, a half-step Spirit Emperor Realm cultivator, who dared to have any ideas about him?
After thinking about it, the only ones left who had the opportunity to make a move were Punan Garrison Manor's Zhangsun Jiaci and Thriving Red Manor's Garrison Manor's Shangguan Zhizhen.
Yang Fan glanced at Zhangsun Jiaci and Shangguan Zhizhen, who were holding the peak Emperor Rank Golden Soul Refining Pills. Seeing the excited and happy smiles on their faces, as if they couldn't wait to swallow the Golden Soul Refining Pills, Yang Fan's face also revealed a very happy smile.
"Damn it, you actually want to loot a burning house. Do you really think I'm a soft persimmon that you can pinch as you wish? Grandma! "
"No matter how happy you are now, you will suffer in the future. At that time, what you will lose will be far more than just this peak emperor-ranked Soul Refining Golden Pill."
Yang Fan thought in his heart, but his face showed a blessing expression as if he had given her a rose.
"Beast souls at the peak of the Emperor level are hard to come by. So far, I have only refined these four Peak Emperor level Soul Refining Golden Pills. I hope they will be of help to the four seniors."
Yang Fan added fuel to the fire.
Sure enough, when they heard Yang Fan say that there were only four Peak Emperor-level Soul Refining Golden Pills, Gu Zeyan, Liu Silong, and Wu Dao's expressions changed slightly.
However, Zhangsun Jiaci, Shangguan Zhizhen, as well as Lan Yuanqing and Yao Puxin, who were immersed in great surprise, didn't notice at all.
These four Domain Lords had already been mesmerized by the enormous Spiritual Energy and mental power contained in the Peak Emperor-level Soul Refining Golden Pill. Their thoughts were obviously not as sharp as when they first arrived.
On the other hand, Ling Tian and Deputy City Lord Lu Ziqi, because their cultivation had not reached the minimum requirement to take the Peak Emperor-level Soul Refining Golden Pill, could still barely keep their minds clear. While the two envied the four Domain Lords for encountering such treasures, they already felt that something was not quite right. Their eyes swept over Yang Fan from time to time.
Gu Zeyan, Wu Dao, and Liu Silong were even more shrewd with age. At a glance, they saw through Yang Fan's little trick of killing three soldiers with two peaches.
However, the three of them were still so useless. Even though they knew that this was Yang Fan's deliberate scheme, they still couldn't help but want to jump in.
There was no other way.
A Peak Emperor-level Soul Refining Golden Pill was really too tempting. They couldn't refuse it at all.
Even if they were to bully the weak and be shameless for once, they still had to get back the two Golden Pills in Shangguan Zhizhen and Zhangsun Jiaci's hands.
The extremely friendly favorability could ensure that they wouldn't have any evil intentions towards Yang Fan. Even though they knew that Yang Fan definitely had even more Peak Emperor-level Soul Refining Golden Pills in his hands, they didn't think of snatching them away. They would even protect and protect him with all their might.
But who cared about Zhangsun Jiaci and Shangguan Zhizhen?
As long as no evidence was left behind, even if they had suspicions, what was the use?
The world of the apocalypse was like this.
There was no fear of not having good goods, only of not having good people.
As for Gu Zeyan, Liu Silong, and Wu Dao, these old guys, even if they could bravely face death and not retreat when fighting against the Demon Clan, deep down, they never thought of themselves as good people.
After all, the environment was like this. Everyone grew up step by step in this kind of environment where the strong preyed on the weak. As long as they were strong enough, not to mention a few juniors, they would even dare to snatch the treasures in the hands of a Demon Emperor.
"Alright, almost everyone outside is here. We should go out too!"
Gu Zeyan coughed lightly, waking the four Territorial Lords from their huge surprise. After they had all put away the Peak Emperor-level Soul Refining Pills in their hands, Gu Zeyan's mind moved. His spiritual will enveloped everyone, and then the rules of space surged slightly.
Whoosh!
Everyone's figures disappeared from the underground secret room.
"You've been disturbed by the rules of space of the half-step Emperor Gu Zeyan and personally experienced a short-distance teleportation. Your heart has been touched, and your understanding of the rules of space has deepened. Storage space + 10, teleportation distance + 1000. Comprehension of space rules + 1. "
Following this System Notification, Yang Fan's eyes lit up. When he opened his eyes again, he had already arrived at the reception hall of the City Governor's Office.
Soft music lingered in the air, and there was no limit to the food and drinks.
There were even a few dancers dancing in the middle of the hall.
"It's really a gathering!"
Yang Fan blinked. Unlike the solemn meeting he had imagined everyone sitting around a giant oval table, the scene in front of him was relaxed and harmonious, natural and unrestrained. It really was like a high-level private gathering.
After Yang Fan and the others appeared, the originally noisy scene suddenly came to a halt.
The singing and dancing stopped, and the waiters temporarily moved away. The thirty or so territorial masters and their companions who were gathered in one place also put down the wine glasses in their hands at the same time and raised their heads to look at Yang Fan and the others.
As the only inexperienced young man by the side of a group of big shots, Yang Fan's existence was naturally extremely eye-catching. Just him alone had attracted the attention of the majority of the people.
Whether it was those who knew him before or not, they had more or less guessed his identity now.
"Did you see that? That kid is Yang Fan, the only Overlord-level doctor in the Federation!"
"Haha, brother, did you see that? That young man is the Overlord-level doctor from our Northwest Guardian Residence. He's my junior brother!"
"Yang Fan, an Overlord-level doctor, is he really so young?"
"It's true. Heroes come from the young. He's already an Overlord-level doctor at such a young age. His future achievements are simply limitless!"
"…"
After a moment of silence, the territorial masters below began to communicate with each other through voice transmission. However, most of the topics were about Yang Fan, the Overlord-level doctor.
It couldn't be helped. As the first Overlord-level doctor in the Federation, Yang Fan's existence was not easily ignored no matter where it was.
Yang Fan stood there quietly, calmly looking at all the big shots who were looking at him. Among the thirty or so territorial masters and their entourage, Yang Fan saw a few familiar faces.
First of all, it was naturally his fellow townsmen from the Northwest Guardian Residence.
The territorial master, Fu Zhengqing, the old principal of Qingshan Martial Arts School, Qu Hongde, and Yang Fan's ancestor, Zhu Huanan, were all here. Seeing Yang Fan looking in their direction, Fu Zhengqing and Zhu Huanan smiled gently at Yang Fan at the same time and nodded in greeting.
Yang Fan's heart warmed.
He didn't expect that three seniors from the Northwest Guardian Residence would come down. With their cultivation bases only at the King Realm, it was really too risky to cross tens of thousands of kilometers to come to the capital.
Next, Yang Fan also saw Cui Deshou and Cui Hao who was following behind him.
Cui Deshou was expressionless, showing neither joy nor anger. However, Cui Hao bowed deeply to Yang Fan, looking a little excited.
Yang Fan's gaze swept over Cui Hao and found that this kid's cultivation seemed to have improved greatly. It seemed that the trip to the ancestral land had helped him a lot.
After that, Yang Fan saw Tian Buqi, Tian Feiyao, and Zhu Sibo, who had just returned to his hometown.
They were all familiar faces. The three of them nodded at Yang Fan at the same time. Tian Feiyao even wanted to break through the crowd and come to Yang Fan's side, but she was firmly held back by Tian Buqi. In addition, a stern-looking young man in front of them gently reprimanded her. Only then did the girl completely calm down and not dare to act rashly.
It seemed that the young man should be the head of the Nanjiang Tian Clan. His aura and majesty didn't seem to be inferior to Zhangsun Jiaci and Shangguan Zhizhen. He wasn't a simple character.
Sensing Yang Fan's gaze, the young man looked up and nodded slightly at Yang Fan.
Yang Fan also bowed slightly as a greeting.
Then, seeing Tian Feiyao looking at him with a longing expression, Yang Fan couldn't help but smile and nod at her.
Even though he hadn't seen this girl for a long time, she was still so lively, cute, and lovable. She hadn't changed at all.
Seeing her so obedient, filial, and affectionate, Yang Fan couldn't help but reach out to take something from his storage space. It was as if he would feel a little embarrassed if he didn't reward this girl with something.
After that, the rest of the people were complete strangers to Yang Fan. However, most of their cultivations were above Emperor-level. They were all undoubtedly big shots and couldn't be underestimated.
"Do you feel a little strange when you see the people from the Qinghe Guard Residence?"
Beside Yang Fan, Ling Tian saw that Yang Fan's expression seemed a little strange. He then whispered to Yang Fan through voice transmission, "In fact, it's not just the Qinghe Guard Residence. People from the Changmeng Guard Residence, which wasn't invited, also came."
As he spoke, Ling Tian gently raised his hand and pointed at Yang Fan in the crowd.
"There, do you see that? It's that young man in a silver suit who looks to be in his twenties. He's the Domain Lord of the Changmeng Guard Residence, Mo Anran."
Ling Tian continued, "Actually, it's not strange that they came. The allure of the Emperor-level Soul-Refining Golden Pill is enough to make most Emperor-level warriors forget what face is."
"Moreover, if they don't want to be isolated by the other domains, they have to come even if they're thick-skinned. Even if they know that they might be slapped in the face, they'll still obediently stick their faces out. "
Hearing this, Yang Fan's gaze moved and unconsciously swept across Mo Anran's face.
