In just two hours.
Qin Mengjue arrived at Niu Huang Valley.
Besides Grand Elder Fang Tianyi, Third Elder Zhu Hengxiao had come with her.
These two were among those in the Dragon Palace closest to her; it could even be said that they belonged to the same faction.
Upon arriving, they immediately struck, knocking out all the martial artists in Niu Huang Valley who were not from the Dragon Palace and tossing them aside. Then Qin Mengjue stepped forward to negotiate with Huang Xuanzi.
The moment they met.
Qin Mengjue's heart grew heated. She could tell that Huang Xuanzi was indeed in the Dao Evolution Realm, and likely not much weaker than herself—absolutely a peak Dao Evolution Realm expert.
They were both peak existences, only a hair's breadth away from Dao Integration.
On that basis alone, Huang Xuanzi was already qualified to speak with her as an equal.
However, Qin Mengjue was in no hurry to recruit Huang Xuanzi.
A person like this was not so easily recruited. It would not be easy to poach someone from the Sacred Land Dao Palace merely by relying on the Dragon Palace's name.
She needed to learn more about Huang Xuanzi and seize hold of his weak point before striking true in one blow.
Otherwise, if the recruitment failed, she would only make herself a laughingstock.
Most importantly, she was still unsure whether this Huang Xuanzi was truly a Diviner, and how capable his divinations were.
Thus, though her heart burned with excitement, she instead wore a calm, businesslike expression.
"Fellow Daoist Huang Xuanzi, correct?"
"I know what happened. On behalf of the Dragon Palace, I accept your conditions. I have brought the thirty Heaven Grade Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Grand Elder..."
"Yes!"
Fang Tianyi stepped forward and waved his hand. Thirty
