Chapter 3987: Wanqi Wu Ming
Zhen Ping Fan’s emperor-grade flying s.h.i.+p was enough to accommodate everyone from the Pure Yang Sect who attended the Trading Conference comfortably.
Zhen Yun Feng nodded and smiled at Duan Ling Tian before he placed his hands on his back and looked at the mirror images in the flying s.h.i.+p. The mirror images showed the surroundings of the flying s.h.i.+p.
Although they were traveling at a high speed now, Duan Ling Tian could still see their surroundings clearly. It was only when the speed increased again that the surroundings turned blurry.
Due to Zhen Yu Feng’s presence, the members of the Pure Yang Sect felt at ease. They gathered in small groups and began to chat among themselves.
At this time, Zhen Ping Fan, who was standing next to Zhen Yun Feng, said with a smile, “Father, my flying s.h.i.+p is now traveling at the speed of an advanced Emperor of G.o.ds. It’ll be impossible for Wanqi Jue to catch up to us even if he wants to.”
“You should never let down your guard,” Zhen Yun Feng said as he shook his head, “Don’t forget that the Wanqi clan has a Formation compa.s.s that can interfere with the speed of flying s.h.i.+ps. If they use the Speed Limiting Formation, your flying s.h.i.+p won’t be going anywhere.”
“I know,” Zhen Ping Fan said carelessly, “However, from what I know, Wanqi Jue doesn’t have that Formation compa.s.s with him. It’s with the clan leader. Wanqi Jue couldn’t have predicted this so it’s impossible for him to carry that Formation compa.s.s with him.”
Zhen Yun Feng scoffed. “If I thought about coming here, do you think the Wanqi clan won’t send anyone over as well? How do you know they didn’t send someone to pa.s.s the Formation compa.s.s to Wanqi Jue?”
…..
Zhen Ping Fan’s expression froze for a moment when he heard Zhen Yun Feng’s words. Then, he forced a smile on his face and said, “So what if they send someone to pa.s.s the Formation compa.s.s with the Speed Limiting Formation to Wanqi Jue? You’re here. Moreover, Wanqi Jue had lost his prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul. Even if he still possesses it, he still won’t have the guts to come looking for trouble.”
Zhen Ping Fan was very confident about his father’s ability.
‘A Speed Limiting Formation compa.s.s?’
Driven by his curiosity, Duan Ling Tian could not help but ask Zhen Ping Fan about it.
Since his father was ignoring him, Zhen Ping Fan explained to Duan Ling Tian, “The Speed Limiting Formation, like its name suggests, can slow down the speed of everything in its range. This includes cultivators. This kind of Formation compa.s.s is very valuable. Only the top five forces have such a Formation compa.s.s in the Eastern Ridge Mansion. The Wanqi clan has one, and our Pure Yang Sect has two.”
Duan Ling Tian had heard about the Speed Limiting Formation, but he did not know that the Formation could be carved into a Formation compa.s.s as well. Usually, people would set up the Speed Limiting Formation in advance. When the Formation was activated, it would prevent one’s target from escaping, and the person who set up the Formation would notbe affected at all.
Zhen Ping Fan continued to say, “The Speed Limiting Formation isn’t an extraordinary Formation by any means. However, it’s unique because it’s impossible to carve the Formation on ordinary Formation compa.s.ses. Rare and precious materials were used to forge Formation compa.s.ses that can hold the Speed Limiting Formation. These materials can’t be found in the Eastern Ridge Mansion so they’re all outsourced. Hence, that two Formation compa.s.ses we own that hold a Speed Limiting Formation cost a fortune.”
Duan Ling Tian nodded.
“Even if the Wanqi clan sends someone to deliver the Speed Limiting Formation compa.s.s to Wanqi Jue, he won’t gain anything if he stops us. Perhaps, he might even run away after he sees my father,” Zhen Ping Fan said disdainfully.
Duan Ling Tian glanced at Zhen Yun Feng before he said to Zhen Ping Fan, “Elder Zhen… I think your father has a point when he said the Wanqi clan might send people over. It’s possible that they might send another intermediate Emperor of G.o.ds, right?”
Zhen Ping Fang’s expression changed slightly upon hearing these words. Then, he looked at his father who wore a solemn expression on his face. He wondered inwardly, ‘Is this what father is worried about? It’s true that Wanqi Jue won’t be the only one that feels upset about the loss of the prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul. The Wanqi clan is going to be unhappy as well. In order to regain the prominent divine artifact, it’s really not impossible for the clan to send another intermediate Emperor of G.o.ds after us…’
Suddenly…
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions rang from outside the flying s.h.i.+p.
Duan Ling Tian and the others could feel a force pulling the flying s.h.i.+p.
Duan Ling Tian instinctively turned to look at the father-and-son duo and saw the dark expressions on their faces.
At the same time, the younger generation from the Pure Yang Sect looked around in confusion, trying to figure out what happened.
As for the elders, they were frowning and discussing among themselves.
“Speed Limiting Formation?”
“Wanqi Jue used the Speed Limiting Formation to stop us?”
“It’s impossible for him to set up a Speed Limiting Formation here in just a few days, right?”
“Perhaps, he used the Speed Limiting Formation compa.s.s?”
“Isn’t that with the Clan Leader of the Wanqi clan?”
At this moment, Zhen Yun Feng said expressionlessly, “Apart from Ping Fan, everyone will return to the Pure Yang Sect using Ye Tong’s flying s.h.i.+p first. This is an order.”
Following that, Zhen Ping Fan said, “Everyone, be careful. I’m going to put away the flying s.h.i.+p now.”
As soon as Zhen Ping Fan’s voice fell, everyone felt the ground disappear under their feet. They quickly mobilized their Divine Energies to hover in the air.
Everyone, including Duan Ling Tian, saw that they were hovering above the sky of a desert. Apart from them, there was no one else except two figures hovering in the distance.
Zhen Yun Feng, who was standing in front of the Pure Yang Sect, looked at the two old men in the distance and asked solemnly, “Wanqi Wu Ming, Wanqi Jue, what’s the meaning of this?”
One of the two old men was Wanqi Jue, the Golden Seat Elder from the Wanqi clan.
Duan Ling Tian had never seen the other old men before, but it was not difficult to guess that the other old man was also an intermediate Emperor of G.o.ds or a Golden Seat Elder like Wanqi Jue.
Wanqi Wu Ming said, “Zhen Yun Feng, don’t pretend to be a fool. You know very well why we stopped you.”
As expected, Wanqi Wu Ming was an intermediate Emperor of G.o.ds, but he was stronger than Wanqi Jue.His strength was comparable to Zhen Yun Feng.
For this reason, a trace of worry could be seen in Zhen Yun Feng’s face when he saw Wanqi Wu Ming.
Zhen Yun Feng said icily, “Wanqi Wu Ming, Wanqi Jue lost his prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul in a fair fight. Are you going to rob it from us?”
At the end of his words, Zhen Yun Feng’s eyes glinted coldly as well.
Wanqi Wu Ming shook his head and said, “Elder Zhen Yun Feng, those are some heavy accusations. Since Wei Chun Dao served as a witness, there’s no question about the legitimacy of the fight or bet. However, I just want to make a point that 100 king-grade Limit Divine Pills can’t compare to a prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul at all. The stakes are grossly skewed. You won’t deny this, right?”
Zhen Yun Feng scoffed. “What a joke? So what if that’s the case? Everything was decided before the fight. Now that Wanqi Jue lost, you’re going to say that the stakes aren’t equal in value?”
Wanqi Wu Ming frowned slightly as he said in a low voice, “Elder Zhen, you should know how difficult it is for a prominent divine artifact to give birth to an incomplete artifact soul. Moreover, without it, Wanqi Jue definitely won’t survive either one of his next five Heavenly Tribulations. The Wanqi clan has no intention of making an enemy out of the Pure Yang Sect. If you return the prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul to us, we’ll compensate you with 200 king-grade Limit Divine Pills over the next 100 years! If the Pure Yang Sect is willing to accept divine crystals as payment, we can clear the debt even sooner.”
“Impossible!” Zhen Yun Feng said decisively.
At this moment, Wanqi Jue finally spoke. He said through gritted teeth, “Zhen Yun Feng! Since we can’t come to an agreement, I’m afraid we’ll have to offend you.”
