After seeing Luo Chen leave, Xiong Kun cautiously asked, “Friend, you just mentioned ‘twists and turns’. Is there something about to happen?” Tian Xingzi avoided answering this question.
Instead, he asked with a smile, “What are your thoughts on joining us, Friend Xiong?”
Xiong Kun hesitated.
Only after a long time, he decided to shake his head definitively.
“No, I prefer my free and easy life. Even though it can be bitter, I am not bound by too many rules and regulations.”
Tian Xingzi didn’t press him further. “If that’s the case, I’ll respect your choice. Even if I’m not here in the future, you can carry my token and trade at any Zhenlong Black Market.”
This was like giving Xiong Kun a channel for trading.
Xiong Kun expressed his gratefulness with a bow.
Before leaving, he curiously asked, “Friend, when will you guys leave?”
Tian Xingzi sighed and said, “Soon, soon!”
Underneath the dark night sky, a figure rose into the air at a high speed.
A dark cloud suddenly appeared and carried the figure further away from the ground.
Calamity Cultivators who were waiting outside saw this and gave up on their intention to kill and plunder.
Although the figure seemed to only have the spirit power fluctuation of a Qi Refinement stage, the means of riding the clouds could only be performed by a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator.
No one dared to provoke Foundation Establishment True Cultivators.
Above the dark cloud, Luo Chen’s heart was thumping.
Not because he spent eight thousand spirit stones to buy a demon beast body.
But because he almost revealed Tian Xingzi’s identity during their conversation.
“Falling Cloud and Rising Smoke Technique.”
“A sect’s inheritance.”
“Such a technique isn’t something ordinary, it’s clearly the Luo Yun Sect’s Pill Refinement Technique!”
This realization occurred during his conversation with Tian Xingzi.
It should have been words of mutual flattery, but Luo Chen had an epiphany and thought about this point.
If it was just a random speculation, it wouldn’t matter.
However, Luo Chen’s thoughts were sharp recently, unlike his usual muddled state.
Almost instantly, he thought about the various irregularities of the Zhenlong Black Market.
The chain of markets found in every city.
There were always puppets for sale, and there was even a combat puppet that was as powerful as a Qi Refinement Finalization stage.
This was not something that could be obtained just by having a wide network and various channels.
In the Yu Ding Realm, only the Luo Yun Sect can produce combat puppets and does not sell them externally.
If the Zhenlong Black Market is an industry of the Luo Yun Sect, everything adds up.
Furthermore, the gray-robed Golden Core cultivator released the three Ghost Kings without any hesitation.
This was not something that could be done by someone with just an extreme personality.
The Ghost Kings were extremely violent, and once they broke free, they wouldn’t care who helped them.
But the gray-robed Golden Core cultivator did it and even commanded the Ghost Kings to surround and kill the Sword Cultivator Pang Renxiong.
Ordinary Golden Core cultivators couldn’t accomplish this.
But if it was done under the long-term planning of the Luo Yun Sect’s puppet technique, it would not be difficult.
They just treated the three Ghost Kings as puppets!
Only after understanding all this did Luo Chen feel a chill down his spine.
He did not dare to think about what would happen if he revealed Tian Xingzi’s identity on the spot.
Would Tian Xingzi kill him to keep him quiet?
Therefore, he swiftly changed the topic and did not continue on this subject. He hoped that the deal for the demon beast body, which cost eight thousand spirit stones, should be enough to divert Tian Xingzi’s attention from his odd behavior.
At least, judging from the fact that he left the Zhenlong Black Market unharmed.
Tian Xingzi didn’t notice anything.
“But it’s hard to say, those with deep and careful plans might have already noticed what’s going on.”
If that’s the case, the reason for not making a move would be the Blood
Ignition Pill deal.”
Blood Ignition Pill… Blood Ignition Pill…”
Luo Chen licked his lips, and the fog looming over his mind began to clear.
This pill can be considered a trump card for a Qi Refinement Cultivator.
But for a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator, it means nothing.
Yet Tian Xingzi valued the Blood Ignition Pill so much, and he even bought a large quantity of them.
His purpose was clear.
‘He is not buying to resell at a high price elsewhere. Blood Ignition Pills might
not necessarily fetch a high price elsewhere.”
He is buying them undoubtedly for the Luo Yun Sect.”
“What does the Luo Yun Sect need so many Blood Ignition Pills for?”
Gulp!
A noticeable swallowing action took place at his throat.
Luo Chen had a vague word in mind.
“War!”
The cold north wind hit his face, leaving Luo Chen’s heart ice cold.
He had always been wondering why the Zhenlong Black Market dared to encircle and kill Pang Renxiong.
This was tantamount to declaring war on the Yu Ding Sword Sect.
However, he didn’t realize that they had been preparing for war long ago.
They had Black Markets throughout the land to collect spirit stones and various resources on a large scale.
It was clearly resource hoarding work before war broke out.
They even sold puppets from their sect.
The Luo Yun Sect had obviously made all preparations.
“But, why do they dare to provoke the local hegemon?”
Suddenly, Luo Chen thought of a rumor.
When he first met Qin Liangchen and his wife, they were sending their son, Xiao Hu, to the Luo Yun Sect’s disciple recruitment ceremony.
They had once mentioned that the Luo Yun Sect’s Supreme Elder, Han Zhan, had the stature of a Nascent Soul.
Could it be that he has truly broken through?
So, that’s why they have the confidence to oppose the Yu Ding Sword Sect?
If that’s the case, everything makes sense.
The resources of a region, although abundant, were insufficient to support two
Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects.
When the Yu Ding Sword Sect initially started the Open War, it was also because they could no longer develop on their original territory.
