"Having broken through to the Earth Bending Realm, could it an another Ancestor Vein has erged?"
Yun Xiao played with his left arm, watching the flow of water transform, and felt a new anticipation. As his words fell, he began to sense the ridian Qi within him.
"Huh?"
Sensing one's own ridian doesn't take long. When Yun Xiao felt sothing unusual below his shoulders on his back, he couldn't help but voice his surprise.
The anomaly he sensed wasn't one of the already activated two Thunder Attribute Ancestral Veins; rather, it was beneath one of these veins, a faint presence distinctly different from ordinary ridians.
Yun Xiao couldn't see the situation on his back, but he certainly felt that it might be his eighth Ancestor Vein, though it hadn't truly been activated yet.
"Xiao Wu, do you know what's going on?"
Unable to figure it out himself, Yun Xiao asked directly in his mind, recalling that he'd learned about the Thunder Dragon's Wings from Xiao Wu when he activated his two Thunder Attribute Ancestral Veins last ti.
"You're such a freak. How would I know what it is before it's truly activated?"
Questioned by Yun Xiao, Xiao Wu seed a bit embarrassed, perhaps because he was asked sothing he couldn't clarify, and his tone was slightly odd.
"Tsk, tsk, there are things even you don't know? I thought you were all-knowing!"
Hearing this, Yun Xiao showed a touch of mockery on his face. He, once the reincarnation of Long Xiao Battle God, had often felt belittled by the self-proclaid Five-Clawed Golden Dragon before him, and now he seized the chance to tease.
"Hmph, one day I'll know for sure!"
This ti, Xiao Wu didn't refute. His snake eyes flashed a hint of doubt as he muttered, "Since this guy can activate Thunder Dragon's Wings, this eighth ancestor vein must be extraordinary!"
Yun Xiao couldn't hear Xiao Wu's deliberately concealed mutterings. He stood tall, gazing towards the main hall entrance, and after a mont, he emitted a soft laugh.
"This Wuyan Water Palace should be bustling by now."
..........
Deep within the Wuyan Water Palace!
In a glistening hall, two figures glared angrily at another pair of peculiar individuals, their expressions mixed with helpless anger and various other emotions.
"Long Xiwawa, we've given you the item. What more do you want?"
The genius from Demons Mountain, Luo Fusheng, glared at the figure ahead, childlike, his voice suppressing rage and tinged with caution. Xiao Ming beside him shared the sa deanor.
Earlier, Luo Fusheng and his junior brother Xiao Ming had entered this hall and obtained the treasures within when Long Xiwawa and Duan Wuya suddenly appeared, engaging in a fierce battle without a word.
These two were Wuyan Palace's top geniuses, against whom Luo Fusheng and Xiao Ming were no match. After several moves, the treasure was seized, leaving the pair greatly disgruntled.
But circumstances were against them; the opponent's strength granted them the right to the treasure. Yet what shocked Luo Fusheng was that when he and Xiao Ming tried to exit the hall, the two from Wuyan Palace blocked their way.
"Luo Fusheng, I hear you have quite a good relationship with Yun Xiao?"
Long Xiwawa tossed the newly acquired item, not angered by Luo Fusheng's questioning, but rather speaking with intentional implication.
"So what if I do?"
Luo Fusheng knew well of the animosity between Yun Xiao and these two geniuses from Wuyan Palace, and thus responded defiantly, his words providing an implicit answer to Long Xiwawa's inquiry.
"You should know the relationship between Yun Xiao and my Wuyan Palace. Since you two are friends with him, I can't be blad for what happens!"
Long Xiwawa's eyes flashed with a peculiar light, and as he spoke, the two genius cultivators from Demons Mountain instinctively stepped back, letting their ridian Qi surge, ready to fight.
Although Luo Fusheng and Xiao Ming were unaware of the intense battle at Yinji City, it didn't prevent them from guessing at Yun Xiao's relationship with these two geniuses of Wuyan Palace.
Back at the seventh level of Xuanyin Cave, Long Xiwawa had opposed Yun Xiao alongside Su Jian and Gu Changsheng, and naturally, their relationship couldn't be restored.
Little did Luo Fusheng expect, Long Xiwawa would vent his anger so unnecessarily, threatening to kill over friendship with Yun Xiao.
"But considering Demons Mountain, I'm willing to give you two a chance. It's up to you if you can seize it or not."
Long Xiwawa's fingers emanated a faint blazing dangerous aura, his words carrying a clear implication, causing Luo Fusheng and Xiao Ming to exchange a glance.
"What opportunity?"
Xiao Ming asked instinctively, while Luo Fusheng frowned slightly in contrast.
He knew that although the genius of Wuyan Palace was not as cunning as Su Jian from the Spirit Fighting Comrce, the fact that he was negotiating conditions while holding the upper hand might not be a good thing for their brotherhood.
"Actually, Wuyan Palace only wants to kill Yun Xiao alone. As long as you two agree to secretly deal with Yun Xiao for us, we'll all be friends in the future!"
Long Xiwawa spoke eloquently, his gaze fixed on the two brothers from Demon Mountain, Duan Wuya stood at the entrance of the great hall like a half iron tower, blocking the only exit of the hall.
"You're dreaming, we..."
"Junior Brother!"
Xiao Ming had been saved by Yun Xiao in the past, and was still grateful. He hadn't repaid the favor, yet this genius from Wuyan Palace wanted him to betray his savior. How could he agree to that? But just as Xiao Ming was about to shout angrily, Luo Fusheng interrupted him.
Under Xiao Ming's puzzled gaze, a faint smile appeared on Luo Fusheng's face, as he said, "Brother Tong, you seem confident, but if we pretend to agree and then renege once we're outside the hall, what can you do to us?"
"Senior Brother..."
Upon hearing Luo Fusheng's words, Xiao Ming brightened up, although still sowhat puzzled. He thought it a good idea, but why would his senior brother reveal it at this mont?
"Of course, I have my thods. Look!"
Long Xiwawa seed to have anticipated this question long ago, as he extended his right hand and a small fla appeared at the tip of his index finger, looking quite mystical.
"This is the Fla Demon Seed of Wuyan Palace. You just need to let plant it within your body, and I will trust you completely!"
The genius from Wuyan Palace exclaid confidently, causing both Xiao Ming and Luo Fusheng's expressions to change dramatically, because the na of the Fla Demon Seed was as familiar to them as thunder.
It was Wuyan Palace's unique technique to control so peripheral cultivators. Once the Fla Demon Seed was planted within a cultivator's body, no matter how far you were, with just a thought from the master, the Fla Demon Seed could explode violently.
At that ti, the flas would erupt, and you would be burned to ashes by the fierce fire inside-out in an instant.
This thod of controlling cultivators with the Fla Demon Seed, although despised, is extrely effective. Over the years, none of the subordinate cultivators controlled by Wuyan Palace dared to betray.
As the top genius of Demon Mountain, how could Luo Fusheng not have heard of the Fla Demon Seed? He knew that once planted, not only would there be no turning back on the Yun Xiao matter, but he would be under Long Xiwawa's control for the rest of his life.
In fact, Long Xiwawa had already planned this, not only needing Luo Fusheng to deal with Yun Xiao, but potentially controlling Demon Mountain in the future.
As Long Xiwawa knew, Luo Fusheng was the prized disciple of the current Mountain Master of Demon Mountain, Hou Tianlie, and possessed exceptional talent, potentially taking over Demon Mountain in the future.
With such a good opportunity now, if the Fla Demon Seed could be planted within Luo Fusheng's body, wouldn't he beco a lifelong servant, unable to betray?
Long Xiwawa was quite ambitious; among the forces attached to Wuyan Palace, not even the first-class forces match Demon Mountain. Now, it looks like controlling Demon Mountain easily is possible, why not do it?
The prestigious Demon Mountain stands as the primary strong force below the four top forces, and its overall strength is not much lesser than the Spirit Fighting Comrce. Long Xiwawa believes guaranteeing such a success would assure him of the next Palace Master position of Wuyan Palace.
Long Xiwawa even imagined completing the Wuyan Palace wish that hasn't been fulfilled by the nurous Palace Masters over the generations, by controlling such a force as Demon Mountain.
When the ti cos, with Wuyan Palace dominating the Tenglong Continent anew, rekindling the glory of the founding master, it would all be thanks to him, Long Xiwawa.
Today's event lays the foundation for those future plans, with great potential for success.
Everyone cherishes life, and Long Xiwawa believes that the two geniuses from Demon Mountain across would be no exception. Faced with the threat of death, it's easy to predict their choice.
"Long Xiwawa, you want to control ?"
Luo Fusheng wasn't a fool. From Fla Demon Seed alone, he had already guessed so of Long Xiwawa's intentions. His expression turned extrely somber; giving his future into soone's control was sothing he could never agree to.
"I know Demon Mountain and Spirit Fighting Comrce have always been at odds. Rest assured, once we're family, Wuyan Palace will surely help Demon Mountain eliminate Spirit Fighting Comrce!"
Lost in his imagination, Long Xiwawa dauntlessly spoke words filled with a touch of dominance. Seeing the two hesitating, his patience wore thin.
"I'll give you ten breaths to decide; otherwise, I'll have to take action myself!"
The Fla Demon Seed danced between Long Xiwawa's fingers like a fiery sprite, enveloping the two geniuses from Demon Mountain in a heavy atmosphere, with the ten breaths soon passing.
