102: What are you saying? I don't understand

Yang Yi looked around.

Although he had met quite a few people last night, there were many he had not seen before, and he did not know which Sect they belonged to.

He asked Yue Lingxin, who was beside him.

Yue Lingxin chattered away endlessly, explaining the identities of this group and which Sect they belonged to from start to finish.

However, Yue Lingxin's knowledge was limited, so Leng Yueshuang, who was beside her, would occasionally add something.

Yang Yi was slightly surprised.

"Listening to what you just said, doesn't that mean almost all the experts from the Twelve Sects and Yunzhou have come?"

Zhang Xinyue's expression was cold.

"More or less. All the forces in Yunzhou have sent experts here."

Yang Yi counted the people to himself.

"One, two, three, eighteen, seventy-eight."

There were seventy-eight experts in total.

Among these seventy-eight experts, the Luoyue Sect had twelve people, including Yang Yi himself.

It could be said that among these people, the Luoyue Sect currently had the largest number of members.

As for their strength, Yang Yi did not know yet, but having the advantage in numbers was already a plus.

If a fight really broke out, they would naturally have a slight advantage.

Furthermore, he had just discovered that the Luoyue Sect had good relations with several other Sects.

If everyone joined forces, they would not be at a disadvantage.

Thinking of this, his mood settled down quite a bit.

A faint smile hung on his face as he began to chat and laugh with Yue Lingxin.

Yue Lingxin was not as cheerful as before; it was clear that the appearance of this group of people made her feel somewhat uneasy.

The Sect Leader of Luo Yue was conversing with several other experts, though it was unclear what they were talking about.

Yang Yi and the others set up camp nearby.

They had already arrived at their destination, so they first needed to find a place to rest.

Then they would discuss when to enter the valley and when to go search for the Luoyue Divine Sword.

They did not yet know the situation inside the valley, nor did they know if anyone else had gone inside to investigate.

Zhang Xinyue and the others also knew some people; once they finished their own tasks, they went to communicate with people from other Sects.

Everyone looked very harmonious, but Yang Yi knew deep down that hidden behind this harmony was endless murderous intent.

The smiles on everyone's faces might turn ferocious in the next second.

The various fine wines and delicacies they were sending over now might turn into blades and weapons in the next moment.

At lunch, everyone returned.

Zhang Xinyue first shared the information she had gathered with everyone.

According to the information she gathered, the reason this group of people came to the Purple River Valley was not just for the Luoyue Divine Sword.

There was another goal: to search for the Treasure Trove of the Purple River Valley.

As for the source of this information, it all came from the Duobao Pavilion.

The others also shared the information they had gathered.

After everyone had finished speaking, the group's gaze fell upon the Sect Master.

Because the Sect Leader of Luo Yue had also gone to gather information.

He had been chatting with people from other Sects for quite a while, so he must have gathered more information.

However, to everyone's disappointment, the Sect Leader of Luo Yue had not gathered any useful information.

The information he obtained was not much different from everyone else's.

Just then, Yang Yi suddenly raised a question.

"You say the information came from the Duobao Pavilion."

"I have a small question."

"You were able to be lured here, so the things inside the Purple River Valley must be extremely important."

"Then, why didn't the people from the Duobao Pavilion come?"

"Could it be that they don't care for these things?"

Once these words were spoken, everyone looked suspicious.

Just as Yang Yi said, why didn't the people from the Duobao Pavilion come?

The Duobao Pavilion loved all kinds of treasures the most.

In order to obtain some strange and exotic treasures, they would rather spend a huge amount of money, or even send people to kill and seize the treasures.

Knowing there were good things in the Purple River Valley, how could they not come?

Just at this moment, someone in the distance suddenly shouted, "More people are coming!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of people walking out from the nearby forest.

There were over a dozen people in this group.

The person leading them made Yang Yi stand up abruptly.

This person was none other than the Pavilion Master of the Duobao Pavilion in Tian Yuan City, Haitang.

Beside her followed the Elder of the Duobao Pavilion, Tiancan Old Man.

These two were one in front and one behind, with over a dozen experts following behind them.

Haitang seemed to be familiar with this group of people.

She directly pulled off her veil, smiled sweetly, and affectionately addressed the people around her, calling some Elder, some Uncle, and others Old Qian.

When she greeted the Sect Leader of Luo Yue, she called her Elder Sister; it seemed the two had a good relationship.

Haitang also greeted the others from the Luoyue Sect.

She was familiar with Yue Lingxin, Leng Yueshuang, and Zhang Xinyue, and she called each of them sister.

Yue Lingxin even hugged Haitang, looking extremely intimate.

When Haitang's gaze fell on Yang Yi, she was visibly stunned for a moment, because she did not expect Yang Yi to appear here, and that he was mixed in with the people from the Luoyue Sect.

"Isn't this the Yang Family Head, Yang Yi?"

"I didn't expect us to meet again."

Haitang smiled gracefully and hummed at Yang Yi, appearing somewhat displeased.

Yang Yi laughed awkwardly and didn't say much.

The reason he left the Yang family in such a hurry was actually to avoid Haitang.

During the period of dealing with the Zhang family, Haitang had helped the Yang family a lot.

Yang Yi knew that Haitang did not help him for her own selfish desires; she must have had some requirements.

In order to prevent Haitang from making excessive demands of him, Yang Yi had made a run for it.

By not being able to find him, she couldn't make any demands even if she had them.

When Haitang learned the news of Yang Yi's departure, she was indeed furious, because she was just preparing to discuss the matter of the Medicinal Pill with Yang Yi.

Who knew that she wouldn't even be able to see him.

However, she did not expect that Yang Yi's departure had something to do with her.

Now that she saw Yang Yi, she wanted to settle the matter of the Medicinal Pill first.

Not only did the Duobao Pavilion know about this, but others likely had the same idea.

She turned to look at Tiancan Old Man and asked him to arrange for everyone to rest first.

Immediately after, she grabbed Yang Yi's arm tightly with one hand, as if afraid he would run away.

"Yang Yi, oh Yang Yi."

"I have been looking for you so hard."

"Where have you been running off to during this time?"

"Traveling all over the place."

"Just going wherever I can."

Yang Yi smiled reluctantly.

He wanted to pull his hand back, but Haitang was holding it too tightly, so he could only let her hold it.

Suddenly shaking off Yang Yi's hand, Haitang wore a serious expression.

"I helped your Yang family a lot before."

"Shouldn't you thank me?"

"You should, you should."

Yang Yi replied casually.

"How do you intend to thank me?"

Haitang pressed on.

Yang Yi tilted his head and looked up at the sky.

"How about I kowtow to you once?"

Haitang was stunned for a moment, then glared at him fiercely.

Kowtow once? Even if he kowtowed a hundred times, it would be useless to her.

"Stop spouting nonsense."

"I heard your Yang family has a type of Medicinal Pill."

"This Medicinal Pill can allow a person to have a Breakthrough to the Life and Death Realm."

"Is that true?"
