562: Copper block received

For a moment, Chen Peng's face flushed crimson.

He had originally come as a vanguard to test their strength.

However, after a thorough beating, he still couldn't ascertain the opponent's precise strength.

But from what was revealed at present, their strength was likely no less than that of a True Immortal.

If it was merely the True Immortal Realm, it would be somewhat difficult to secure a spot in this grand competition.

Because as time went on, the Great Wu Imperial Dynasty's grand competition had lifted its restrictions.

Many elderly Cultivators, as well as some people from other states, were participating in this competition.

Among them, there was no lack of True Immortal Realm existences.

Some were even quite old, with their cultivation reaching the Late Stage of the True Immortal Realm.

They hoped to use this opportunity to get in touch with the Great Wu Imperial Dynasty, preferably to become a 供奉 of the Great Wu Imperial Dynasty.

In the future, they would be completely settled.

However, if he returned with only such news, the Young Lord would surely punish him.

Thinking of this, he steeled his heart and gritted his teeth.

His cultivation erupted, wisps of ghostly Qi permeated the air, and he stood ready, vigilantly watching Wang Yan.

"You, your price isn't as high as mine, and you start fighting at the drop of a hat; you truly have no class."

Before he could finish speaking.

A flash of light pierced through the air, and an astonishing blaze directly burned a large hole in his chest.

At the edge of the hole, wisps of golden flames continued to corrode his body.

Wang Yan's expression was slightly cold.

This was already him holding back.

Otherwise, this person in front of him would have already perished on the spot.

"You and this Fellow Daoist had already agreed on a price, and you actively interfered and cut in."

"Nine undying divine medicines? Do you really think it's worth that price? I can completely interpret it as you deliberately provoking me, simply wanting to cross me."

"I'll give you a lesson and make you pay the price you deserve, but you also need to compensate me."

As his voice fell.

He reached out and grabbed.

Chen Peng's Storage Ring immediately appeared in his hand.

Wang Yan merely glanced at it hastily, and the mysterious fiery red runes were particularly striking.

This Storage Ring immediately became ownerless.

Wang Yan tossed it into his own Storage Ring.

He looked exactly like a powerful landlord.

Chen Peng immediately knelt on the ground, his face filled with regret.

"Fellow Daoist, I was wrong."

"Scram!"

Just at this moment.

Another Cultivator suddenly walked out from the crowd.

This person was dressed almost identically to Chen Peng.

As soon as he appeared, he cupped his hands towards Wang Yan.

"Fellow Daoist, I have already briefly understood the situation. This matter was indeed our fault. Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for sparing his life. We will leave now."

As his voice fell, the two quickly disappeared from sight.

At this time, many people had already gathered around.

Each of them looked at Wang Yan with a hint of surprise.

"This person's strength is actually so terrifying? It seems all of us underestimated the Wang family."

"More than that? Didn't you see the young man standing next to him? He didn't make a move from beginning to end, clearly extremely confident in the person beside him."

"I even vaguely sensed that this person's strength is even above that of the one who acted just now."

The crowd was in an uproar.

They chattered away, their discussions endless.

But soon, someone mentioned Wang Dong.

"If a clansman who Ascended from the Lower Realm is already so terrifying, then what about this Clan Chief who led the entire clan to Ascension?"

"Haha! Fellow Daoist, you think too much. You only need to know that there haven't been new Ascenders for a long time, and this one managed to lead an entire clan to Ascension."

"His strength and foundation will definitely shatter everyone's imagination. Give him some time, and he will lead the entire Wang family to rise."

"Have you heard of the Great Qian Imperial Dynasty? I heard their Sixth Prince has a cooperation with the Wang family, but the attitude of that Emperor towards the Wang family is hard to say."

The discussions grew louder and louder.

But Wang Yan didn't pay them any mind.

Instead, he turned to look at the old man.

"Now, what do you say this item is worth?"

The old man was stunned.

He had encountered a human-shaped Dragon here.

If this person struck him, wouldn't he not even have his last moments?

How could he, a dignified elderly man on the verge of death, withstand a Genius from the Wang family?

Moreover, he hadn't properly established his position just now.

Perhaps he had already scored negative points in their hearts.

If the two of them were to act against him now, he figured no one among the onlookers would stand up and speak for him.

After realizing this,

The old man quickly knelt down.

"Two Fellow Daoists, the matter just now was all my fault for being greedy. Only one undying divine medicine, and everything will belong to the two of you."

"Additionally, I also have a Jade Slip here for refining a sword array, and one of the main materials is precisely this ten-thousand-year-old cold bamboo, which I will present to Fellow Daoist."

As his voice fell, he immediately pulled out a Jade Slip from his 懷 and respectfully placed it before them.

Wang Yan nodded in satisfaction.

He swept up the items and took them away.

"What was agreed upon as two will be two. I, Wang, will not go back on my word."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding people once again started pointing and whispering.

And under everyone's gaze, Wang Yan and Wang Gou quickly departed.

Not long after, the two arrived at an inn.

"Quick, quick, take out the items, let me see."

A hint of fervent excitement appeared in Wang Gou's eyes.

He was very curious about that green copper block.

Wang Yan was also somewhat curious.

He hadn't noticed anything mysterious about these items just now.

Especially the green copper block that Wang Gou was interested in.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand.

The next moment, the ground was covered with various items.

Among them, bottles and jars were all acquired from the old man's stall.

Wang Gou quickly rummaged through them.

But after rummaging for a while, his expression suddenly turned ugly.

"Where's the copper block?"

"How could it not be here?"

Wang Yan's expression also became unsightly.

He had specifically paid attention to that item just now and put it into his possession.

How could it not be there?

The two of them searched together.

Even some porcelain bottles were directly broken.

Medicinal Pills were scattered all over the ground.

But they still couldn't find the item.

But just at this moment, Wang Gou suddenly felt a surge of unusual activity.

His eyes gleamed.

"I know where it is."

...Meanwhile, in a tavern upstairs.

"I'm sorry, Young Lord, I failed to complete the mission perfectly."

"This is not your fault. Those two are too much of a Prodigy."

A ghostly young man's gaze was cold.

Like a venomous snake, he looked at the Cultivator in front of him.

He stood up as he spoke.

Gently patting Chen Peng's shoulder.

Chen Peng's face grew increasingly ugly, and then a look of terror appeared in his eyes.

But he didn't dare to move.

A moment later, the light in Chen Peng's eyes vanished.

He stood motionless, like a corpse.
