Mo Tiankong didn't believe that the items in the grocery store weren't attractive to the Wei Clan. Otherwise, they wouldn't have asked for an exclusive supply. They definitely cared about it, so it would be difficult for him to leave safely.
Of course, Mo Tiankong didn't want to do it in the city. There were still many ordinary warriors. Although the Wei Clan made up 60% of the people, he couldn't destroy the city. This was only the decision of the Wei Clan's higher-ups, and it had nothing to do with others.
Moreover, it might be that the Wei Clan saw a business opportunity and wanted Mo Tiankong's exclusive supply rights in private.
Of course, this probability was still very low. The Wei Clan alone couldn't come up with 100 million Spirit Stones as a bargaining chip.
Perhaps an ordinary person could earn dozens or hundreds of Spirit Stones in their lifetime, but it was impossible to save them. Those who could save might not even have a single Spirit Stone, and it was all spent during the period.
Mo Tiankong believed that a clan had assets of hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones, but it was impossible for them to come up with liquid funds.
The Zhang and Tang family might have used up hundreds of millions of Spirit Stones, but that was only for the entire clan, including the branches and so on. It was normal for a clan to use up these resources in a few decades or a few hundred or a thousand years.
Mo Tiankong didn't think too much about it. After he walked out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, he immediately started running. Acropolis City had a rule that only Venerables and some Martial Emperors could fly in the city. Other cultivators couldn't.
Therefore, he also ran on the main street toward the city gate. If he didn't run, the city was still very big, and it would take him a few days to walk slowly.
Even so, it took him more than two hours to run. The speed of a Martial Emperor Realm warrior was still very fast, and it should be faster than the bullet train on Earth.
The distance in a straight line was about 600 miles, and it was mainly to avoid the pedestrians on the street. Otherwise, he could be faster. After all, it was not an empty street.
With the strength of Mo Tiankong's body, if he really did not dodge, then he would be killing people along the way. The force of the collision alone was enough to kill these low level warriors. If that was really the case, then it would be better to just fly out of the city.
Before they left the city gates, Mo Tiankong opened up his map to check which direction the Empire was heading to. Naturally, they wouldn't be in a hurry at night. Instead, they flew in a certain direction and found a suitable place to set up camp before stopping.
Since they didn't plan to spend the night in the city, they had to find a suitable place to set up camp in the wilderness.
The next stop was the Cloud Sand Empire. Judging from the name, it seemed to be an empire located in a desert region. Or rather, it was an empire located in an arid region. From the map, the Cloud Sand Empire didn't seem to be very large. It was about the same size as the Aquamarine Empire. It only had about thirty cities.
It was normal for empires to be of different sizes. This also meant that the difficulty of completing the mission would not be as high. However, he did not cross the border with the Hundred Tribes Empire, so he estimated that the journey would take a lot of time.
Because he was going from the bottom to the top, he was basically heading west. However, there were still cities in all directions. The closest city was the one in the northwest.
Mo Tiankong didn't delay and flew towards the northwest. However, Mo Tiankong wasn't the only one who left Acropolis City.
Not long after Mo Tiankong left, two figures flew out of Acropolis City. They followed Mo Tiankong's aura and Yuan Qi fluctuations.
Mo Tiankong, who was in the air, also became alert. He kept his mental power out. Although he had some guesses, he didn't know if they would actually happen. However, it was still better to be cautious.
He had to be more cautious in the wilderness. Although it was extremely rare to see high level demonic beasts, it was still better to be safe than sorry. Especially when he was rushing, his speed was very fast.
The intense Yuan Qi fluctuations would attract some demonic beasts. Of course, low level demonic beasts wouldn't be able to keep up. If there were any demonic beasts that could keep up, they would be high level demonic beasts.
As for why they were following him, needless to say, it was to eat. They were treating Mo Tiankong as their food.
High level demonic beasts on land could also fly when they reached the Martial King realm. Therefore, some flying demonic beasts would also become prey. The sky was no longer the home ground of flying demonic beasts.
Because of their racial talent, low level flying demonic beasts could also fly. However, their speed wouldn't be as fast. They were still very easy to hunt.
On the way, Mo Tiankong kept flying at high speed. However, he still sensed the Yuan Qi fluctuations behind him because the other party didn't have any intention of hiding.
Moreover, he was flying at full speed. He quickly closed the distance between him and Mo Tiankong.
He didn't need to use his mental power to know that the other party's strength was higher than his because he was now an eighth level Martial King. The person who could catch up to him in speed was at least a peak Martial King. It was even very likely that the other party was a Venerable.
Moreover, it wasn't just one person. It was two people. They were thinking too highly of him. He had just left Acropolis City and they had already sent two Venerable experts. They couldn't be here to send him off, right?
Perhaps they couldn't chat with him. Sigh, it couldn't be anything good. Therefore, while there was still some distance between them, Mo Tiankong stopped. He took out a cigarette and lit it.
No matter what the other party's purpose was, the strength of a Martial King was still a little weak. As for the Auspicious, he also put it away. He could still participate in the battle of Martial Kings. However, he was still a little weak in the battle of Venerables.
Most importantly, he didn't have any spirit stones now. He couldn't increase his strength. He thought that his eighth level Venerable cultivation should be enough to deal with them.
Even if a peak Venerable came, he wouldn't be able to stop them even if he couldn't defeat them. The difference of one level wasn't that big.
Of course, that was if there was only one person. Now, there were two people. Did they want to kill him and rob him or force him to submit?
As for the pursuit after leaving the city, it was just in case. If Mo Tiankong didn't compromise and started fighting, the slightest fluctuation could destroy a large area. Naturally, they didn't want to see that happen.
Also, it wouldn't be good for the reputation. Although the city was under the Wei Clan's rule, it wouldn't be good if this matter spread out. Who would dare to do business with the Wei Clan in the future?
This time, the Wei Clan had this idea because these items were too important. Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken action.
"Phew." Mo Tiankong landed on a mountain. He took a puff of his cigarette and waited for the two people to come over.
The reason why he stopped was to conceal the fluctuation of Yuan Qi. If there were two Venerable Realm cultivators, he would be able to catch them off guard and severely injure or kill one of them. That way, the pressure on him wouldn't be so great.
It didn't matter even if the remaining one was a peak Venerable. Even if he couldn't defeat them, he wouldn't feel pressured to escape. If he was held back by one of them, the remaining one would wait for an opportunity to make a move. It would be a little troublesome.
At that time, it would be difficult to escape. Of course, this was also the worst case scenario. What if they were here to send him off or buy something?
Out of caution, Mo Tiankong still used a cigarette. Right now, he only had sixteen left. Although they were very precious, they could protect his life.
No matter how important the items were, they weren't as important as his life, so it was very worth it. Furthermore, he didn't really want to fight. He was just taking precautions.
Soon, the two Venerables appeared in his line of sight. With Mo Tiankong's cultivation base, although he couldn't see things in the dark like it was daytime, he could still see things clearly within a certain distance.
Both of them were wearing cultivator robes. One was a middle-aged cultivator while the other was an old man. They immediately used their Appraisal Technique. In terms of cultivation, the middle-aged cultivator, Wei Xun, was slightly higher as he was a rank three Exalted. The other old man, Wei Yong, was a rank two Exalted.
Wei Xun and Wei Meng were both low-level Exalted Realm experts, so Mo Tiankong relaxed when he saw this. If they were to really fight, he, who was a high-level Exalted Realm expert, would have a chance to kill them if he launched a sneak attack.
That's right, kill the two of them. An ordinary peak Venerable would definitely be able to kill the two of them with a sneak attack if they didn't have anything to protect their lives. However, Mo Tiankong knew that he had to use the right martial technique. It was still possible for him to seize the opportunity.
Although he had the support of the System and the Eight Trigrams Blade Technique, he still lacked combat experience, so it was hard to say.
"Seniors, you should be from the Wei Clan, right? May I know why you're looking for me so late at night?" Mo Tiankong asked directly before the two of them came close.
In the end, the two of them maintained some distance from Mo Tiankong and floated in the air a thousand meters away.
"This old man will ask one last time. Can you only supply to the Wei Clan?" The older cultivator spoke. He didn't hide his Venerable aura at all. It seemed that he was more senior in terms of seniority.
The two of them came out because of the Wei Clan's instructions. This was also the last time they asked. If Mo Tiankong still didn't agree, they could only kill him and take the goods.
After all, the people who were sent to do business shouldn't be too important. As for this matter, they would talk about it when they went to the Aquamarine Empire.
The two Venerable cultivators were sent as a precaution. When Mo Tiankong entered the Wei Clan's City Lord Mansion, the Venerable cultivators in secret had already checked his cultivation base.
He was only an eighth-grade Martial Emperor, but his bone age was only in his twenties. He was probably a prodigy who could fight above his level. Therefore, the two Venerable cultivators were sent out. No matter how talented he was, he couldn't escape.
In fact, one Venerable cultivator was enough. Martial artists who could fight above their level in the Venerable Realm were very rare. Sending out two Venerable cultivators was the safest choice. It could be said that the Wei Clan thought highly of Mo Tiankong.
Hearing Wei Yong's words, Mo Tiankong sighed. As expected, they didn't come with good intentions. They didn't even call him by his name. With such an attitude, no one would agree to it.
Moreover, it was the same question again. Mo Tiankong didn't want to repeat it. There was no room for discussion. The System wouldn't come out either. Otherwise, Mo Tiankong might just throw this problem to the System and let them talk to the System. It would save him a lot of trouble.
If the System were to take action, these two wouldn't be able to last a second. However, with the System's character, it wouldn't be his bodyguard when he went out.
