After leaving the main palace hall, Huo Ma looked curious as he said, "Is the Overlord of Sky City really that charming? Lord Yun has never obeyed anyone like this before."
"No one made him obey. It was simply a matter of whether our interests were drawing closer to the same position. General Huo, you don't need to overthink it. Just focus on your own mission." I spoke indifferently, and Shengtu Bengyun, Divine Nun Kongshan, and the other immortals soon caught up with us.
"The auction over at Shi Jiushuang's place has ended, but the Corpse Cultivator clan seems to have learned about it. They've surrounded the place so tightly that not even water could leak through," Shengtu Bengyun said with a cold snort.
"Shi Jiushuang couldn't handle it herself?" I asked with a frown. I then changed course and flew toward the trade fair, while also sending Shi Jiushuang a voice transmission. However, the transmission was rejected, which made me grit my teeth and glare at Huo Ma.
Huo Ma's eyes narrowed slightly. "This is the Demon Race's territory. How could we allow Corpse Cultivators to run wild here? Leave this matter to me to investigate."
"I told you to keep an eye on Shi Jiushuang, but you came along to deal with King Lu's matter instead. If anything changes because of this, I'll twist your head off!" I said coldly. Huo Ma did not dare delay and immediately began communicating according to his own plan.
Unfortunately, things seemed to have gone against his wishes. The information he received must have been beyond his expectations, because he then looked toward the Sacred City's palace and said, "I'll consult Lord Yun again."
"Consult my ass. You can't even handle a small matter properly." Shengtu Bengyun naturally flew into a rage
