86: Wang Yan
It was simply impossible to kill Jiang Taixu.
As for the latter, he was somewhat well-known here.
There were several venerable authors in the Divine Fire Realm.
Thinking about it this way...
All the information lined up.
The Aura of the three Elders of the Jiang Family immediately surged.
"Kill! We must make them pay the price."
"Annihilate their nine clans and destroy their Dao inheritance."
"Go, go, go!"
Immediately following this, the three Elders of the Jiang Family turned around.
They charged with Killing Intent towards the Great Sun Sect's encampment.
Three days later...
A piece of news spread.
Jiang Taixu, the Sequence God Child of the Jiang Family, died at the hands of the Great Sun Sect.
The high-ranking members of the Jiang Family were furious and dispatched several God Realm Elders to bloodbath the Great Sun Sect.
Two venerables of the Great Sun Sect were killed on the spot.
Another venerable was severely wounded.
He escaped by using a secret technique.
Most of the Sect members were slaughtered.
In an instant, the Great Sun Sect was removed from the records.
Countless Cultivators sighed, lamenting that such a powerful Sect, with multiple venerables in its Realm, was annihilated just like that.
The Ancient aristocratic family truly lived up to its reputation as an overlord.
Ordinary forces simply couldn't afford to provoke them.
If one were to undertake the task of eliminating another Family's Prodigy, it had to be done thoroughly.
Otherwise, the Great Sun Sect would be the outcome.
At the same time, at the Wang Family's encampment.
Wang Dong stood atop the main peak, looking down at everything with a somewhat gloomy expression.
However, it wasn't because of the Great Sun Sect's matter.
Just then...
A Divine Thought fluctuation suddenly came from the foot of the mountain.
"Clan Chief, the King of Wu Zhou has come to visit and is already waiting in the side hall."
Wang Dong was a little surprised to hear this.
They had just met a few days ago.
Why was he visiting now?
Could it be because of the Jiang Family's matter?
Wang Dong wasn't sure.
However, after a moment of hesitation, his figure flickered and he vanished.
When he reappeared, he was already in the side hall.
He would know what was going on once they met.
Soon, the two had already met.
Their conversation was quite familiar.
"Brother Wang, have you heard the news? That day in the mountain range, the people of the Great Sun Sect actually killed the Divine Child of the Ancient aristocratic family."
"I heard that they have now been completely bloodbathed, which is truly gratifying."
"But it's also fortunate that you and I left early, otherwise..."
At this point, Wu Shentong burst out laughing.
He felt very comfortable in his heart.
On one hand, he had saved his life, and on the other hand, it was because...
At that time, both sides were mocking him.
Due to the situation, he didn't even dare to speak.
But those people were all dead now.
The gloom in his heart had dissipated.
"I did hear something about it a few days ago."
Wang Dong smiled but didn't say much.
However, the topic shifted, and Wang Dong asked him again.
"Your Majesty, you've come to see me today, I'm afraid it's not just for this matter, is it?"
Wu Shentong nodded, then said.
"The Alchemy Grand Assembly is in a few days. I plan to purchase some Medicinal Pills for the younger generation to Cultivate. I wonder if Brother Wang's Family has any needs? We can go together."
Alchemy Grand Assembly? Wang Dong pondered slightly.
He was indeed aware of this.
It was usually jointly organized by several Alchemy Sects.
It involved Alchemy competitions for the younger generation, and in addition to that, there were also auctions.
To attract more Cultivators and build their reputation, the organizers would also lower the prices of Medicinal Pills.
As for the location, it was not fixed each time.
There was a specific list that rotated.
This time, he heard it was supposed to be in Tianxing City.
However, under normal circumstances, Wang Dong would most likely refuse.
But now, this was precisely what he was concerned about.
Previously, the resources returned by the System's investment could be reinvested.
Achieving infinite investment.
However, with the emergence of a Dongtian Realm Cultivator in the Family.
It was unclear whether this loophole had been fixed.
In any case, the items returned could no longer be reinvested.
For example, the True Dragon Art in his hand could not be reinvested.
But the Zhe-character Secret could.
Currently, there didn't seem to be any problems.
But as time went on, there would inevitably be a situation where they would live off past gains, and high-level Cultivation resources would become increasingly scarce.
Therefore, it was necessary to purchase a large quantity of Medicinal Pills.
So, there was no need to worry about offensive and defensive Martial Skills.
These were non-consumable items.
Thinking of this...
Wang Dong nodded.
"In that case, it just so happens that I can go with Your Majesty."
"Good, then when shall we depart?"
Wu Shentong's expression brightened.
"Let's go now. There's no time like the present."
"Alright! Going early might even allow us to catch the auction."
The two exchanged a few simple words.
Then they sped off in the direction of Tianxing City.
Tianxing City was located in a no-man's-land.
But ironically, it was also the most prosperous place.
Especially the central city.
Within a radius of 100,000 miles, there were large and small Sects standing in great numbers.
Cultivators were as numerous as cattle.
However, these past few days, Tianxing City, which was already overcrowded, became even more congested.
Many Alchemists began to appear.
They had come because of its reputation.
Because the Alchemy Grand Assembly was being held here.
The City Lord of Tianxing City also used this opportunity to hold a large auction.
It was said that many coveted divine treasures of heaven and earth would appear.
At this moment, they arrived at the city gate.
There was a continuous stream of traffic.
Many Cultivators were lining up to pay Spirit Stones to enter the city.
"Damn it, this is too much of a rip-off! It costs 2,000 Spirit Stones to enter once, whereas it used to be only 500. Now it's quadrupled."
"How is this any different from robbery?"
"How is there no difference? One is direct robbery, and the other is also direct robbery."
The faces of some low-Realm Cultivators were very ugly.
They grumbled endlessly in their hearts.
But while they complained, the snacks in their hands were still thrown out.
They dared not show the slightest disrespect.
Everyone knew in their hearts.
Tianxing City was not an ordinary place.
The City Lord was a powerful venerable.
Once inside, no fighting was allowed.
Otherwise, they would be directly obliterated by the City Lord.
Of course, this also led to some Cultivators who had provoked enemies and were being hunted, coming here for refuge.
Therefore, it was a mixed bag, with all sorts of people.
Just then...
A young man shrouded in a black robe walked in after paying the Spirit Stones.
This was Wang Yan.
He had been missing for nearly two years.
The contours of his face were more resolute, having shed some of the youthful immaturity.
His eyes were firm, and his steps steady; it was clear he had undergone much tempering in the past two years.
Soon, Wang Yan chose an inn to stay in.
Each room here had a unique function.
It could block others' prying eyes.
Therefore, the Spirit Stones paid were also exorbitant.
However, Wang Yan naturally had no shortage of these Spirit Stones.
He was an Alchemist, and he had plenty of Spirit Stones.
But at this moment, he was sitting on his bed.
Gently caressing the ancient ring.
