Chapter 3801: Northern Yan (3)
When she looked again, she saw that there was no obstruction.
Just then, Feng Wu heard a voice.
"Hey, are you here to try your luck, too?"
Feng Wu couldn"t help but turn around when she heard the voice.
A handsome teenager stood in front of her and looked at her in amazement.
"Try my luck?" Feng Wu was confused.
"That"s right. Aren"t you here to try your luck and hope that you can break in and meet the grandmaster?" The teenager glanced at Feng Wu, convinced that she was pretending.
Feng Wu didn"t know what to say.
"You have a point. Everyone wants to be favored by the grandmaster, and everyone wants to try their luck. What if they succeed? Don"t you think so?" The teenager grinned at Feng Wu.
Feng Wu chuckled. She still didn"t get it.
Crossing his hands behind his back, the teenager sighed. "I"ve seen a lot of kids like you. See? Over there is my refinery shop. I can see people trying their luck here every day.
"Look at this tablet. It says: If fate wills it, I"ll give something to you as a gift.
"It"s from the patriarch of the Huyan family.
"He used to be an emperor for a day, so he deserved to be called "His Majesty". Moreover, he was the top alchemist back then."
The teenager gave Feng Wu a gloating look and spoke in a tone that suggested he had been there before. "Therefore, over the years, many capable cultivators have come here and either tried to force their way in or prostrate on the ground. They all want to meet him.
"But no." The teenager waved his hand. "For years, I"ve never seen anyone go in."
Feng Wu glanced at him. "You"re too young to make that claim."
The teenager snorted. "I have my dad and my grandpa. Neither of them has seen anyone go in or come out. I don"t know if our patriarch is still there…"
"Yichen!" A cold, authoritative voice rang out.
It was the voice of an old man.
"Yes, Grandpa, I"m here! I"ll be right there!"
The teenager called Yichen turned around and called out to the old man in the room. He then turned back to Feng Wu with a casual smile on his face. "Young lady, you"re so unlucky, aren"t you? The stone tablet hasn"t moved, which means that you"re not the chosen one either."
Huyan Yichen grinned at Feng Wu and patted her on the shoulder to comfort her, but he was very pleased with himself.
Feng Wu ignored him, for all her attention was on the inscription on the tablet.
Nothing had happened, which meant that she hadn"t been able to remove the barrier.
Maybe she could try it with her own blood?
Feng Wu was still thinking that way when she sensed a strange gaze on her.
She was very acute. Even with her current cultivation level, she could still easily sense that she was being followed.
As expected…
The next moment, Little Phoenix told Feng Wu, "A pair of eyes are staring at us from the old tree to the northeast."
Feng Wu looked in that direction involuntarily.
Sensing Feng Wu"s gaze, Huyan Yichen looked in that direction as well.
He murmured to himself, "Wait, they"re still here. Why are they still watching us?"
