Drawing Attention
At this moment, in the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, the envoy from the Martial Arts Alliance, surrounded by a group of important figures from Tianwu City, was inspecting the treasures sent by various Lineage.
These Lineage elders spoke eloquently about the treasures, including many stories and legends, which made them quite interesting to listen to.
Until...
"Um?"
Gongsun Ding, the patriarch of the Lihuo Sect, suddenly received a telepathic message. He initially thought it was Gongsun Yang returning to report after executing the troublemakers, but upon hearing this...
"Well, is it resolved now?" Lord Zhang, the head of the enforcement team, said slowly next to Gongsun Ding. However, as soon as he finished speaking, his communication token lit up.
Upon hearing the news inside, Lord Zhang's eyes widened.
What?
His men were all driven back?
Although the enforcement team's report had been somewhat embellished, the hook-nosed man was still so badly beaten that he couldn't even speak and could only have his subordinates report, which left Lord Zhang completely bewildered.
Their Tianwu City law enforcement team went to arrest the criminals, but they were utterly defeated by them?
This is simply... outrageous!
"What's wrong?"
The Martial Arts Alliance envoy turned around and asked the man surnamed Zhang.
The man surnamed Zhang looked grim. He was already embarrassed by the security incident that had occurred when the envoy arrived, and now that the law enforcement team had been assaulted by the criminals, where could he possibly put his face?
But he knew that even if he tried to cover it up, it would be useless. This kind of thing wouldn't even need an investigation; it would reach the envoy's ears.
He could only grit his teeth and say, "Your Emissary Lord, my enforcement team went to the Six Swords Inn to enforce the law, but the criminals were arrogant and assaulted my men. They are still at large. I'm afraid I will have to go there myself."
"Oh?"
The middle-aged Scholar was slightly taken aback. He was also somewhat surprised by what had happened, but it was just a surprise. The Martial Arts Alliance was very large and had already deployed its forces throughout the entire Tianyuan Realm. Tianwu City was just one of the cities under the jurisdiction of the Martial Arts Alliance. Even though the city was very large, it was not very important in the eyes of the middle-aged Scholar.
The fact that the Martial Arts Alliance's enforcement team in Tianwu City was beaten up was a minor matter to him, and not something that would escalate to the point of infringing on the dignity of the Martial Arts Alliance and angering him.
"Interesting. Your enforcement team should also consider improving their capabilities."
The middle-aged Scholar made a casual remark, not taking it too seriously, and subconsciously glanced in the direction of the Six Swords Inn.
His glance was merely a spur-of-the-moment investigation. It was the mention of the Six Swords Inn by Lord Zhang of the enforcement team that caught the middle-aged Scholar's attention.
After all, the Six Swords Alliance has been suppressed by the Martial Arts Alliance for years and is almost disbanded. Several of the six members of the Six Swords Alliance want to join the Martial Arts Alliance.
The middle-aged Scholar simply wanted to see if the troublemakers were members of the Six Swords Alliance, deliberately provoking the situation because they were dissatisfied with the Six Swords Alliance's dissolution.
However, upon seeing this, the middle-aged Scholar was taken aback.
How could this be...?
At this moment, at the Six Swords Inn, Yi Yun returned to his room and saw A'niu, A'yu, and A'yu's cousin standing on the corridor.
Cousin A'yu suddenly knelt down on the ground.
"Master Jiang, I was blind and offended you greatly before. Please don't take it to heart!"
This young man was originally a coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong, a shameless scoundrel.
He had previously thought that Yi Yun would be taken away by the law enforcement team, but now, the strength that Yi Yun had displayed had left him dumbfounded. It was beyond his comprehension. He was worried that his previous offense had displeased Yi Yun, so he hurriedly knelt down to confess his sins.
Yi Yun completely ignored the young man. He said to A'niu, "More people will probably come later. You two stay in your rooms and don't come out. I might not be able to handle the people who come this time. After this is over, I'll take you to the Myriad Treasures Pavilion to buy some pills!"
"The pills I bought for you can only improve part of your physique. Using too many will have no effect. However, even so, they can restore your talent to the level of a top-tier prodigy from a major power. Joining any first-rate force in the Tianyuan Realm should not be a problem for you."
Elixirs that improve physical condition are most effective when the physical condition is poor. Once the physical condition reaches a certain limit, the elixirs that can work become increasingly precious and rare, and their effects actually decrease.
Just like malnourished children, as long as they eat enough whole grains and vegetables, and occasionally have a meat meal, they can have a rosy complexion and grow strong.
However, if a child is already nutritionally saturated, even if you feed them delicacies every day, they will at most become fat, and they will not grow taller or stronger.
"Thank you, Brother Jiang."
A'niu also knelt down, his eyes filled with sincere gratitude. He knew that with Yi Yun's current level of cultivation, there was nothing he could do to help Yi Yun. But if Yi Yun needed him, he would rush forward without batting an eye, even if it meant going through fire and water!
"You don't need to thank me, just focus on your cultivation."
Yi Yun was speaking, suddenly...
Um?
In that instant, he felt a slightly cold Spiritual Sense sweep past him, penetrating deep into his bones and flesh, as if trying to see through him.
Who!?
Yi Yun's hand suddenly pressed down on the Space Ring.
He wasn't surprised to be being watched. The Martial Arts Alliance occupied Tianwu City, and his flamboyant behavior and defeat of the enforcement team naturally attracted the attention of important figures in Tianwu City.
However, Yi Yun never expected that there would be such a person with extraordinary strength in Tianwu City.
"Interesting..."
A soft voice sounded in Yi Yun's ear.
Then, that sensation receded like a receding tide.
Yi Yun felt a chill run down his spine and looked toward the direction of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, seemingly meeting the gaze of the middle-aged Scholar across layers of space.
"Ha, it's actually a young man, I really didn't expect that!"
The middle-aged Scholar became quite interested. Previously, the elders of various forces had introduced so many treasures, but the middle-aged Scholar had shown little interest.
But seeing Yi Yun excited him.
He originally thought that it wouldn't be surprising if the person who caused trouble at the Lihuo Sect and humiliated the enforcement team was a martial artist at the Kaiyuan Realm.
However, after scanning the battlefield with his senses and comparing the residual energy fluctuations with the energy of all the guests at the Six Swords Inn, along with what his cousins A'niu and A'yu had said, the middle-aged Scholar became certain that Yi Yun was the one who had made the move.
The middle-aged Scholar was astonished by the young man's abilities.
Moreover, when he used his senses to investigate, he was immediately detected by the other party. Not only that, the other party even locked onto his location!
This made the middle-aged Scholar even more excited.
"Interesting, really interesting!"
The middle-aged Scholar had already said three interesting things in a row, leaving those around him somewhat stunned, wondering what Scholar was talking about.
"Such an interesting person, I guess I'll have to make a trip there myself and see for myself!" (To be continued~^~)
