Chapter 1202: Chapter 1067: Long Haomiao, Mother’s Eldest Brother (Second Update) Seeing Long Ye suddenly breathe a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden was lifted, the other members of the Long Family looked at each other with varying degrees of confusion.
Who exactly is this Wen Yan? He’s merely in the Mountain Suppression Realm, yet the Second Young Master even sent an Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm expert to protect him in secret, deeply concerned about his safety.
Despite their confusion, no one dared to ask further.
"You all go back first."
Long Ye had no intention of returning, and the other members of the Long Family, seeing this, did not dare to ask more questions. Only a few of Long Ye’s trusted aides remained; the others gradually left the center of Divine Flight City and, upon returning to their stronghold, immediately used the Curved Realm Passage at their base to return to the Long Family.
At the same time, aside from Long Ye not having left, there was actually another group with no intention of returning either. They were the people from Zeming Trading Company!
The appearance of the Sword Demon brought them a pleasant surprise.
It also made Qing Qian even more certain that her choice was not wrong.
Without wasting words, Qing Qian directly ordered Elder Kong Ming, "Elder Kong Ming, you immediately return to Zeming Palace. Meet with Elder You Yue and tell her everything about Zi Ran. With Elder You Yue present, Zi Ran will never sever ties with Zeming Palace!"
Previously, she had informed Elder Ming Zhu about Zi Ran’s return, but Elder Ming Zhu seemed to have taken no action these days. Of course, even if Elder Ming Zhu had taken action, Zi Ran’s attitude clearly showed she had no affection whatsoever for her mother.
Thus, the only breakthrough point was Elder You Yue!
Kong Ming frowned and asked, "That’s it?"
"Yes, that’s it! Just inform Elder You Yue about Zi Ran’s return. If she wants to come to Divine Flight City, take good care of her. However, if Elder Ming Zhu or anyone else wants to come, you must stop them. Zi Ran has no goodwill towards Zeming Palace, so anyone else coming would just push her further away, but only with Elder You Yue can we use Zi Ran as a bridge to connect with the Immortal Sect!"
As Qing Qian spoke, she gradually became more excited.
Because the appearance of the Sword Demon truly brought her so many pleasant surprises.
The Immortal Sect has a Great Domain Master level expert holding the fort, making it impossible for the Thousand Crafts Sect to act against them easily. Even if the Thousand Crafts Sect has more powerful beings above the level of Great Domain Master, it’s the same because You Country exists!
As long as You Country stands, it won’t allow internal conflicts among Great Domain Master level experts.
With this, the Purple Treasure Pavilion of the Immortal Sect can truly change this era with the Vortex Map and Vortex Killing Artifact, forcing the Thousand Crafts Sect to remain subdued.
And that’s where Zeming Palace’s opportunity arises.
They must find a way for Zi Ran to return to her roots!
Even if she never stays at Zeming Palace, that’s okay.
Because as long as she acknowledges her ancestry, with Elder You Yue as the bridge, Zeming Palace can then use Zi Ran as a link to cooperate with the Immortal Sect.
She believes the Immortal Sect would be very willing to do so.
After all, the Thousand Crafts Sect is a huge family with a vast business and deep foundations, and short-term suppression or surpassing them isn’t feasible.
While You Country doesn’t allow conflicts among Great Domain Master level experts, the Thousand Crafts Sect will surely continue with its little maneuvers. It’s said that overt attacks are easy to dodge but hidden ones are harder to prevent. The Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect surely understands the merits of having one more friend over one more enemy.
Thus, cooperating with Zeming Palace is beneficial without any harm.
She cannot think of a reason for the Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader to refuse cooperation with Zeming Palace.
After giving several more instructions to Kong Ming, Qing Qian decided to visit the Purple Treasure Pavilion once more, not for any other reason than to express congratulations to Zi Ran on winning the Vortex duel.
"Go prepare gifts, as grand as possible. I need to visit the Purple Treasure Pavilion shortly." With that, Qing Qian vanished like a startling swan, disappearing from where she stood.
...
Purple Treasure Pavilion.
"Hang him up!"
Several strong warriors of the Purple Treasure Pavilion indiscriminately tied Luo Ye Guifeng with ropes and hung him from the Purple Locust Tree. As they bound Luo Ye Guifeng, their hearts were filled with unease, tension, and a slight thrill.
The once high and mighty Heaven Unrestricted expert had now become a pitiful figure hung from a tree at the entrance of the Purple Treasure Pavilion.
This was a situation as drastic as heaven and earth, leaving people both uneasy and excited.
When Luo Ye Guifeng was hung up, people from Six-Faceted Street quickly gathered around, surrounding the entrance of the Purple Treasure Pavilion until it was impenetrable.
All the people looked at the half-dead Luo Ye Guifeng and sighed incessantly.
"Overbearing! To actually hang a Heaven Unrestricted expert at the door, this is a slap in the face for the Thousand Crafts Sect."
"This isn’t just overbearing; it’s an unprecedented event. This is a Heaven Unrestricted expert, after all."
"It proves that even if you are a Heaven Unrestricted expert, if you cross the wrong person, you still end up like a beggar on the street, deserving every bit of punishment. He brought it upon himself. You might not know, but he actually broke through the space barrier and released entities from the Qu Realm. Just watching from afar was alarming; in the blink of an eye, thousands of the Divine Shadow Army at City Lord’s Mansion were no more."
"I saw it too. If it hadn’t been for the Immortal Sect’s experts taking quick action, and the fast support from other Divine Shadow Army members, who knows how many would have suffered. To him, we are like grass, whether we live or die didn’t matter."
"Pfft!"
"Serves him right!"
Amid discussions and curses, people increasingly crowded Six-Faceted Street.
At the same time, it brought a lot of business to the Purple Treasure Pavilion.
Because of its customers, Purple Treasure Pavilion dared to kill anyone, be it Wei Tong, the Sect Leader of the Black Mist Sect, or Lin Yehong of the Thousand Crafts Sect.
What doubts could they possibly have about Purple Treasure Pavilion?
For the sake of this trust, those who originally intended to sell celestial materials to the Myriad Treasures Sect immediately changed their minds and would only sell them to the Purple Treasure Pavilion in the future.
"Make way, make way."
Outside the Purple Treasure Pavilion, Jun Tianyi descended from the sky and slowly squeezed through the crowd of guests entering and exiting the Purple Treasure Pavilion.
