The Duan Ren City's Leader was a legendary person.
Not many people knew where he came from. They only knew that he was born in the wilderness. Many strong cultivators had tried to kill him. He had been in the top ten of the bounty list. In the end, he hadn't been killed. Instead, he had killed all the people who wanted to kill him. In the end, he had taken over the city. Even the eight clans had acknowledged his existence.
Nobody in Duan Ren City would dare to provoke such a strong cultivator.
Other than showing up frequently at the beginning of the city's construction, the City Lord had been ignoring worldly affairs for the past few thousand years. He also did not care about the many changes in the city. As long as he was still around, the city would not be destroyed. Many people had to acquiesce to his rules and did not dare to provoke him.
Now, such a legendary person wanted to see Yang Wu. Qing Feng was nervous.
She hadn't thought that Yang Wu would be able to attract the Leader of the City. She hadn't thought that Yang Wu would accept the Leader's invitation.
She couldn't wait to knock Yang Wu out and take him away from here.
In the end, she still suppressed this impulse. She believed that Yang Wu was not the kind of person who did not know the gravity of the situation. She wanted to see how he would deal with it. Since things had already come to this point, she could not stop him even if she wanted to. The one-armed saint gave her a lot of pressure.
At that critical moment, Sun Yong said, "Brother, if you need our help, just tell us. We are allies."
These words made Yang Wu very moved.
A friend in need is a friend indeed.
Sun Yong was that kind of person.
Yang Wu patted Sun Yong's shoulder and said, "Thank you. If I need your help, I won't hesitate." Then he said to Qing Feng, "Sister Feng, stay here and protect them."
"No, I'm coming with you." said Qing Feng firmly.
"Alright, Brother Yong, please take care of my brothers and sisters. I'll be back soon." said Yang Wu to Sun Yong.
"Don't worry. Unless we die, we won't let them get hurt." said Sun Yong.
Just like that, Yang Wu got ready to go to the Leader of the City with the one-armed Saint.
The One-armed Saint smiled and said, "Men, get on the palanquin."
As his voice fell, eight women carrying a large palanquin flew over like Ling Bo.
These eight women were all very beautiful. Their clothes were revealing, and their fragrances immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Eight palanquins, that was a very high standard. Everybody in Duan Ren City knew that if the Great Leader of Duan Ren City had to send eight palanquins to receive a guest, he had to be extremely noble.
In the past hundred years, only a few people had been invited by Duan Ren City. Yang Wu was the youngest and the weakest one.
Yang Wu sat on the palanquin unceremoniously and was carried by eight beautiful women towards the City Lord's Mansion.
Yang Wu sat on the soft couch and couldn't help but sigh, "These guys really know how to enjoy life."
In the Union of Pharmacists, Old Zui had nine beautiful women serving him. In Duan Ren City, there were eight beautiful women carrying a palanquin. Yang Wu thought that he was still a conservative young man. He thought that maybe he should learn from the others and get a few more beautiful maids in the bamboo courtyard. When he went out, wouldn't it be very cool?
While he was thinking, the eight beautiful women had already taken him to the Duan Ren Peak.
The Duan Ren Peak was where the City Lord's Mansion was located. It was also where Duan Ren secluded himself all year round. People who weren't invited couldn't easily get close to the Duan Ren Peak. Otherwise, they would die.
The Duan Ren Peak was like a sharp blade.
People who didn't have a certain level of self-control would be scared by the imposing Qi of the peak. The peak was like a sharp blade, it was incomparably sharp.
There was a mansion built on top of the peak. There was a large piece of land that had been cut flat. There were many pavilions that rose from the ground. The buildings looked very messy. There was no order to them. The biggest building in the middle was the City Lord's Mansion.
The palanquin landed.
"Saint Master Yang Wu, please." The one-armed old man said politely.
Yang Wu wasn't afraid. Since he was already in someone else's territory, he might as well take things as they came.
Qing Feng followed closely behind him. She didn't want to be half a step away from Yang Wu.
When they arrived in front of the main hall, the door opened automatically.
The one-armed old man walked in first. He knelt down and said, "Master, Saint Master Yang Wu, please come."
There was an illusory figure on the main seat. People couldn't see his face clearly. They only knew that there was a suffocating smell in the main hall. No one dared to look at him directly.
At that moment, Yang Wu crushed a jade tube. "Pa!" The sound reverberated in the main hall.
"You have guts." A calm voice echoed in the main hall.
"Great-grandmother, save me." Yang Wu cried out in alarm.
Qing Feng didn't expect that Yang Wu would use the jade tube that Gong Silan had prepared for him at this moment.
Last time, when Yang Wu was chased by hounds in the Kunlun Realm, he didn't even want to use it. Who would have thought that he would use it so easily this time? She thought that Yang Wu was really brave because of his skills, but it turned out that he was prepared to protect himself.
"Bastard!" The one-armed old man was furious. He jumped up and was about to attack Yang Wu.
Before he could attack Yang Wu, a force enveloped the one-armed old man and stopped him from attacking.
At the same time, a beautiful woman appeared in the main hall. She was Gong Silan, who had regained her youth. This was one of her avatars.
"You want to kill my Yang family's child?" Gong Silan stared at the figure on the main seat and said.
The figure stood up and revealed his true face. It was a resolute man with a long scar on his face. He was the city lord, Duan Ren.
"Are you Lady Gong Silan?" Duan Ren looked at Gong Silan and asked.
"It's good that you recognize me. I don't care what you're planning. I'm taking him away. If there's anything, we'll settle it later." Gong Silan replied and turned around to leave with Yang Wu and Qing Feng. Duan Ren spoke again, "Lady Gong Silan, it's good that you're here. With you here, you can be a witness. I just want to do business with Saint Master Yang Wu. I'm willing to use a Heavenly Phoenix Jade Token as a deposit."
"Not interested." Gong Silan rejected without hesitation.
"What if I add a Saint Realm lightning absorbing puppet?" Duan Ren asked again.
Before Gong Silan could reject, Yang Wu said, "Great-grandmother, why don't we listen to what he has to say first before making a decision? With you here, why should we be afraid of him? "
"Great-grandmother isn't afraid of him. I'm afraid that something will happen to you." Gong Silan said snappily.
"If I wanted to do something bad to him, I wouldn't have gone through so much trouble to invite him here." Duan Ren said. He paused for a moment before continuing, "I only need him to go to the Dragon Phoenix Battle Grounds and find something for me. Whether he succeeds or not, I won't blame him."
"Alright, let's listen." Gong Silan hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
Yang Wu calmed himself down and asked, "What are you looking for?"
"This Lord wants a broken blade." Duan Ren replied faintly.
Duan Ren wanting a broken blade, how funny was this? But Yang Wu didn't laugh. He saw Duan Ren take out a broken blade. It looked ordinary, but if he carefully sensed it, it was as if the broken blade had swallowed a lot of blood and killed many experts.
"Divine weapon!" Gong Silan exclaimed softly.
"That's right, this is the weapon that made me famous. Everyone knows me as' Duan Ren 'because of this weapon. I hope to collect it and complete my divine weapon." Duan Ren said honestly.
"But, how do you know that it will appear in the Dragon Phoenix Battle Grounds this time?" Gong Silan asked.
"Intuition. It hasn't given me any response for so many years. This time, after I accidentally obtained a piece of Heavenly Phoenix Jade Token, I felt a trace of it. I can conclude that I will definitely be able to find the other part of the broken blade this time." Duan Ren said quite seriously.
Yang Wu instantly understood that Duan Ren might be telling the truth. Words couldn't be so realistic.
"A small part of a divine weapon has extraordinary significance. Why do you think so highly of my Yang Family's child?"
"Haha, even I have heard of Yang Wu's name. Not to mention, he just defeated a second-level Star Pattern Saint in my territory. With such battle strength, I think he will perform well in the Dragon Phoenix Battle Grounds. Even if he can't seize the title of Dragon Emperor, it won't be a problem for him to be at the top."
"If I don't appear, will you force him or even inject the power of your doppelganger into his body?"
"If I say I won't do that, you won't believe me, right?"
…
After a round of conversation, Yang Wu didn't have any right to interrupt. He just listened silently and realized that the reason Duan Ren called him over was indeed not as simple as he thought. Fortunately, he crushed the jade tube in time. Otherwise, if Duan Ren's doppelganger forcefully entered his body, his body would be occupied by someone else. At that time, he would become someone else's puppet and be manipulated.
In an instant, his back was completely drenched.
"Worthy of being called an omnipotent character. I can't underestimate him at all times." Yang Wu thought in his heart.
Gong Silan and Duan Ren's conversation didn't last long. Gong Silan agreed to Duan Ren's condition on behalf of Yang Wu to look for the other part of the "broken blade". Duan Ren's reward was a Heavenly Phoenix Jade Token and a Saint Grade Lightning Absorbing Puppet, which was the favorite puppet of alchemists. This was just a deposit. Whether Yang Wu found it or not, it would belong to him. If he found it, Duan Ren would owe him a favor. To be precise, he would owe the Yang Family a favor. If the Yang Wu needed it, Duan Ren would have to act on behalf of the Yang Family at least once.
Duan Ren agreed without hesitation.
After both sides reached an agreement, Duan Ren even gave the "broken blade" in his hand to Yang Wu.
This gave Yang Wu a big fright. This was a divine weapon. Even if it was broken, it was still not something he could touch.
"Only by holding it can you find the whereabouts of the other part." Duan Ren said.
"Aren't you afraid I'll lose it?" Yang Wu carefully received the "broken blade" and asked.
"If it's lost, it's lost." Duan Ren said indifferently.
"The owner of the divine weapon is here. Even if another omnipotent character obtains it, it won't be easy to refine it. You can rest assured and hold on to it." Gong Silan was satisfied with Duan Ren's action and reminded Yang Wu.
Just like that, Yang Wu accepted an inexplicable mission in a daze.
