Both Wang Yu and Xia Yan live in the Ping An Restaurant, and they can be said to know Xia Yan's situation best among Tiangong practitioners. He had just left the Ping An Restaurant and arrived at the arena, so he knew that Xia Yan hadn't left the retreat since yesterday.
In the room where Xia Yan lived, Wang Yu only saw Qiushui and five women who were close to Xia Yan, namely Xiaoqing and other five women. He couldn't see Xia Yan himself. From several people, Wang Yu knew that Xia Yan was in retreat, of course Wang Yu knew the seriousness, he would not disturb Xia Yan.
"En!" The Holy Emperor didn't change much in his expression, he just nodded after hearing what Wang Yu said.
"Lord Holy Emperor, Xia Yan is still retreating now, can it be effective?!" Zhang Lian frowned, turning his gaze from Wang Yu to Holy Emperor.
The competition between Xia Yan and Wang Dongji is about to start, but Xia Yan has not left the customs yet. In such a short time, can you successfully comprehend anything
"Perhaps..." the Holy Emperor murmured, and then said with a change in his eyes, "Let's go in first. If Xia Yan leaves the customs, he will naturally come to the arena as soon as possible."
After the words fell, a group of Tiangong practitioners entered the passage one after another.
"Liu Xunzhan, do you think Xia Yan is not going to compete with Wang Dongji?!" While walking in the passage, Jian Xunzhan took the opportunity to ask Liu Xunzan in a low voice.
In Tiangong, the relationship between Liu Xunguan and Xia Yan is relatively close to other people. Xia Yan was also recommended by Liu Xunzhan to enter the Tiangong to practice.
"No! I understand Xia Yan." Liu Xunzhan shook his head and looked at Jian Xunzhan and said solemnly.
"Hehe, I also think that Xia Yan won't back down. However, if Xia Yan really decides not to fight Wang Dongji, I think it's the right thing to do." Supervisor Jane smiled lightly.
"Xia Yan is a Tiangong cultivator, since he promised to compete with Wang Dongji, he must fulfill his promise!" A Tiangong practitioner who cultivated in the land of confusion interjected.
"But..." Jian Xun took a look at the cultivator, "Xia Yan and Wang Dongji are not equal at all. Wang Dongji is already in the realm of the Spirit Emperor, and Xia Yan is only the Spirit Sect. How can they compare?!"
"well… "
"If Xia Yan doesn't show up, people in the world will probably criticize our Tiangong practitioners..." Liu Xunzhan shook his head, sighed and said meaningfully.
While several people were talking, a group of people had already left the passage and arrived at the central area of the arena.
As soon as the Holy Emperor and the others appeared, the originally noisy environment suddenly quieted down. The original discussions around were naturally related to the fight between Xia Yan and Wang Dongji today.
Even the five major forces in the holy city are arguing endlessly.
The Xun family, Biqingtang, and even the He family were all happy to see Xia Yan killed by Wang Dongji on the spot. As for the Liangjiahe Chang family, they did not want to see Xia Yan die at the hands of Wang Dongji.
The situation is that although they don't want Xia Yan to die in their hearts, the reality is that the possibility of Xia Yan's immortality is almost zero. As long as Xia Yan appears in Wang Dongji's competition, he will almost certainly die.
"Holy Emperor!"
Wang Dongji stood in the field, his eyes fell on the Holy Emperor.
"En!" The Holy Emperor nodded.
"It's time for the competition, Xia Yan, why haven't you appeared yet?!" Wang Dongji asked with a twist of his eyes, with a sly smile on his lips. the people listened.
"Wang Dongji, what do you mean? When is the time? You didn't say when you have to be there!" Zhang Lianqi's face darkened, and he said in a low voice.
"Hmph!" Wang Dongji also turned cold and snorted coldly.
He didn't dare to make mistakes with the Holy Emperor, and he didn't have a good face towards others. He is a strong spirit emperor, in the eyes of a strong spirit emperor, under the spirit emperor, whether it is an ordinary spiritual master or a spiritual sect, they are all ants.
The gap between Linghuang and Lingzong is really too big. The Spirit Emperor powerhouse can easily kill the peak Spirit Sect powerhouse. Even if the top Spirit Sect master had a divine weapon, it wouldn't change anything.
"Wang Dongji, Xia Yan will come." Shenghuang said aloud, and immediately led a group of Tiangong practitioners to the high platform to sit down.
…
"The Holy Emperor said that Xia Yan will appear, so Xia Yan will definitely appear!"
"Yes, if Xia Yan doesn't come, he will definitely communicate with the Holy Emperor in advance. Xia Yan is a practitioner of the Heavenly Palace. If he wants to hide, he must hide on the holy mountain."
"Brother Mu, didn't you just say that Xia Yan would definitely not come?!"
"Hmph, anyway, I haven't seen that Xia Yan appear yet!"
There was another murmur of discussion among the crowd.
The leaders of the five major powers in the Holy City, who were sitting near the center of the arena, also whispered to each other again.
"Patriarch Chang, you are right, Xia Yan will indeed come." The head of the Liang family smiled, looking at the Xun family and the head of the He family from the corner of his eyes.
"So what if you come? Coming is tantamount to death! When Xia Yan comes, we can see Xia Yan being killed by that Wang Dongji with our own eyes." The head of the Xun family said angrily, blowing his beard.
"I don't think so?!" The head of the Chang family sneered, "As for whether they will die or not, no one can say for sure. Even if they die, it's not good for whoever dies."
"Hehe, Patriarch Chang, do you think Xia Yan can survive Wang Dongji?!" The patriarch He said with a sneer, looking at Patriarch Chang.
"What's impossible?!" The head of the Chang family raised his eyebrows and glared at the head of the He family.
"Hey, if Xia Yan can survive, I will give up all the business of my Xun family Guangming City to your Chang family." The head of the Xun family raised his eyes and looked at the head of the Chang family, "However, if Xia Yan dies, then How about asking Patriarch Chang to give up all the business of the Chang family in Qingcheng to my Xun family?!"
The head of the Xun family wants to make a bet with the Chang family.
"You..." The head of the Chang family was taken aback.
He didn't expect that the head of the Xun family would be so shameless. The result of the contest between Xia Yan and Wang Dongji was already known to everyone. Although Patriarch Chang said that Xia Yan may not die, the main reason is that his heart is for Xia Yan, so he naturally speaks for Xia Yan.
But this time, the head of the family took the opportunity to make a bet with him.
"Hey, since that's the case, then my He family will also join in. The head of the Chang family, how about this, if Xia Yan does not die, all the business of my Chang family in Maoguo City will belong to the Chang family. If Xia Yan dies..."
The head of the He family didn't wait for the head of the Chang family to finish speaking, so he quickly interjected.
At this time, the head of the Liang family stopped talking. Although he didn't want Xia Yan to die, he wouldn't joke about the family property either.
"Okay! Very good! You two..." The head of the Chang family turned dark, "Although the business belongs to the family and not to me alone, I will make this bet with you today."
The majestic head of the Chang family, of course, cannot be suppressed at this time. Even if he knew he was going to lose, he still had to grit his teeth and agree to the bet.
"Haha, Patriarch Chang really has courage, so we sincerely hope... Xia Yan can really survive, hahaha..." Patriarch Xun's eyes lit up, and he said with a loud smile.
"Hmph!" The head of the Chang family snorted slightly, and stopped talking.
"Patriarch, how do you promise them?!" A cabinet elder of the Chang family said anxiously.
If Xia Yan really died, the loss of the Chang family today would not be small.
"Patriarch, if Xia Yan fights with Wang Dongji, he will definitely die. If you agree to this bet, then we will definitely lose?!" Another cabinet elder of the Chang family said in a low voice with his eyes wide open.
In their view, the bet that their patriarch agreed to inquire about the patriarch and the head of the He family was simply giving away the Chang family's property, and it was to their competitors.
If the Chang family loses all their business in the two main cities, it will be a big blow to their vitality! The five major powers in the holy city originally competed fiercely, but they were evenly matched, and no one could do anything to the other. But now, it is a business to go to the two main cities for no reason. If one goes up and down, the Chang family will be weaker than the Xun family and the He family!
"Stop talking, all of you, I have already decided on this matter! At this time, there is no way I would not agree to such a bet!" The head of the Chang family said in a deep voice, glancing at several family elders.
Ping An Restaurant!
"Swallow!"
"Swallow! Great Devour!"
In Xia Yan's room, although the original brilliance of Zhuyan Baozhu did not disappear at this time, it was dimmed, and only a faint light occasionally flashed out. The brilliance of the Guanghua Orb seemed to be absorbed into Xia Yan's body.
Xia Yan's eyes were still closed. However, the content of the dharma in his mind seemed like a rough sea. After entering into meditation yesterday, Xia Yan's mind was completely immersed in the second part of this mental method.
"Huh..." Between Xia Yan's nose, a gust of air suddenly exhaled, and then, the spiritual power lingering around Xia Yan's body disappeared completely strangely.
Although spiritual power cannot be seen with the naked eye, it actually exists. The power used by practitioners is all transformed from spiritual power. If the spiritual power released from the practitioner's body surface disappears, it either dissipates in the air or is absorbed into the practitioner's body.
But whether it is dissipated or inhaled, there is a process. And the spiritual power on Xia Yan's body surface, which was originally flowing continuously, suddenly seemed to evaporate out of thin air, and in an instant, it became nothing at all.
Finally, Xia Yan opened his eyes, the two brilliance in his eyes gradually disappeared, and a smile gradually spread from the corner of his mouth.
"Chi..."
Xia Yan stood up from the soft couch and fell to the ground, his eyes slightly turned away from his body.
"The second part of Lingluo's mental method... Devouring... is the Great Devouring..."
Xia Yan turned his thoughts and looked at his hands.
"Now, I feel that my strength, the spiritual power in my body, has doubled all of a sudden! Even, more than doubled!" The spiritual power in Xia Yan's body circulated for a week in an instant.
"My meridians are more tenacious than before. The movement of spiritual power is much smoother. The five spirit beads are vaguely fused..." Xia Yan felt the changes in his body.
The many small meridians closely connected with the 108 martial arts meridians also seem to have become thicker. Xia Yan now feels that those small meridians don't even need to be done deliberately.
