sword
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi's face couldn't help but flash with joy. Compared to wine, he cared more about the sword. After all, he was not a wine lover. Although he liked wine, the sword was more important to him.
"Sword?"
Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed across the old man's brow, as if he was not very interested in the sword opportunity that had arisen.
“Something is wrong!”
Yang Qi's eyes narrowed. What practitioners pursue is individual strength. After all, there are only a few alcoholics like Song Hong. But the old man showed disappointment when he heard about the opportunity of the sword. This was a bit abnormal.
If it was just the old man, it would be fine. The man in gorgeous clothes not far away didn't say anything, but from his words, he also didn't care too much about the opportunity of the sword!
"Song Hong is hiding something!" Yang Qi thought to himself.
The reason why Song Hong cooperated with him this time in order to obtain the ancient wine recipe was definitely not as simple as he said. However, although Song Hong did not tell him the real intention, he did not cheat him either.
Thinking of this, Yang Qi looked towards the center of the crowd, and saw a silver-gray light surging there, like a leaping sword light, constantly jumping in the air. If you don't get close to perceive it, you can't even detect the existence of the sword light.
"This Yaoguang Emperor..."
Yang Qi's gaze fell on the sword light, and he didn't know what to say in his heart. This Emperor Yaoguang was truly a strange man who did strange things. Even the opportunities he left behind were presented in such a strange way.
Buzz~
At this moment, the surging sword light suddenly became stronger, and a fierce power dissipated from it. As the power dissipated, the people around immediately felt a palpitation. Everyone had no doubt that once the sword light attacked, they would have no choice but to die.
“As expected of a Martial Emperor.” Yang Qi sighed in his heart. Even if he was a peculiar cultivator like Emperor Yaoguang, he was still a Martial Emperor after all. The means he left behind were far beyond their imagination.
“Is it going to start?”
As the sword light grew brighter, Yang Qi couldn't help but feel a little excited. To him, sword was more important than wine, so he naturally valued the sword opportunity before him more.
Time passed minute by minute, and the sword light was still surging, but apart from the surging sword light, nothing special seemed to happen, and the rumored opportunity did not appear.
"Is this a false opportunity?" a practitioner suddenly frowned.
Although the time they had spent arriving was not long, it was not short either. Normally, after such a long time, the opportunities in Yaoguang Realm should have been fully revealed. But now, apart from the surging sword light, nothing else happened, which naturally made people doubt whether the sword light in front of them was fake.
Yang Qi looked at everyone and asked uncertainly, "Do you smell anything special?"
Just now, he suddenly smelled a peculiar aroma of wine, but the smell was so faint, like a dream, that even he couldn't be sure whether it really existed.
Nangong Jin smiled bitterly, and then said, “I thought it was an illusion, but I didn’t expect that you, Brother Yang, could smell it too.”
“I smelled it too!”
"Me too!"
Several other people also spoke up. It was obvious that the smell before was not only smelled by Yang Qi, but other practitioners were just like Yang Qi and could not be sure! If Yang Qi had not said it, perhaps everyone would have regarded it as an illusion.
"The sword light contains the aroma of wine..." The pupils of the man in fancy clothes shrank, and he said with a slightly excited look, "There is only one possibility for this situation to occur!"
"Wine and sword, out together!" A gleam of light flashed in the old man's eyes.
Hearing what the two said, Yang Qi subconsciously whispered, "Song?"
"Wine and sword appear together. It could be a song, but it could also be just wine and sword." The old man chuckled and continued, "But the only thing that is certain is that this opportunity must be related to wine."
"Wine again?"
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows slightly. With the appearance of the opportunity of wine, the old man was obviously more happy. Even the man in gorgeous clothes under the Sixth Prince was no exception. It was obvious that both of them came for the opportunity of wine.
“Although Emperor Yaoguang became the emperor because of his drinking, his swordsmanship should be of greater help to practitioners, right?” Yang Qi looked at the old man not far away and said.
To put it bluntly, spiritual wine is just a kind of cultivation resource. The path of cultivation has never been to rely on a single resource to become strong. In the end, it still depends on the cultivator himself. Therefore, the opportunity that can bring about a huge improvement without the help of external objects is what the cultivator needs most and cares about the most!
"It seems you know nothing." The old man glanced at Yang Qi.
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the man in fancy clothes not far away looked at Yang Qi and said slowly, "You should be sent by Song Hong, right?"
Um
As soon as these words came out, Yang Qi's face changed, and he immediately became extremely alert. Song Hong had reminded him that the Sixth Prince and the Fourth Prince's men would destroy his plan to get the ancient wine recipe, but now his identity was discovered by the Sixth Prince's men.
"Fellow Daoist, there is no need to be so nervous." The man in fancy clothes chuckled and continued, "Although you have not been in Xianniangju for long, we have already received the news. In addition, since you were able to come in, it is self-evident where the token came from."
There were only nine tokens for entering Yaoguang Realm, and some of them already had owners, which the Sixth Prince and the others were very aware of. In addition, Song Hong was a wine lover, and he had tried to send people into Yaoguang Realm many times. If he didn't send anyone in this time, it would be strange.
"Song Hong probably didn't tell you the real purpose of his search for the ancient wine recipe, right?" The man in fancy clothes looked at Yang Qi and asked.
Hearing what the man in fancy clothes said, Yang Qi couldn't help but fall silent. It was obvious that the man in fancy clothes knew Song Hong's intention of looking for the ancient wine. On this point, the other party knew it better than him.
"Since everyone has entered the Yaoguang Realm, it all depends on their own abilities. Why should we hide this matter?" The old man sneered and continued, "Isn't it that the newly appointed inspector is a wine lover and once privately stated that if someone can find Yaoguang this time, he can fulfill the other party's promise not to violate the inspector's authority?"
What
As soon as these words were spoken, Yang Qi's face changed. He never thought that this matter actually involved the Inspector, and that the Inspector was willing to meet the other party's request for the sake of spiritual wine!
Although it was just a request within the scope of his authority, the Inspector was a powerful man at the peak level of the Martial Emperor. A promise from the other party was enough to make the Martial Emperor excited.
“If the news had not spread, the fight for the token in Yaoguang Realm would have been many times more brutal,” the old man sighed.
Not many practitioners knew about this news, and they dared not spread it easily. After all, once the news spread, who knows how many powerful people would flock to the Northern Cang Dynasty. If something unexpected happened, even the inspector would not feel good. (To be continued)
