This kind of compliment is fine, but how could Yang Qi take it seriously? If he was hoping to save his life by flattering and begging for mercy, such a cultivator would have died countless times.
After leaving Hongze with Chen Ruoshang, the two agreed to meet in Wujun County City. Immediately, Yang Qi used his flying martial arts to leave and rushed back to Tianjianmen to hand in the task.
This time, the task of finding the crystal orchid required three crystal orchids from a specific location. The reward for revenge was relatively generous, a full three thousand sect contributions. If Yang Qi hadn't spent a high-level amount to buy spiritual medicine, the value of the crystal orchid alone would be slightly lower than the sect contribution.
After all, it was just a search for natural treasures. Although there were often powerful monsters guarding the natural treasures, the cultivators did not need to fight the monsters to death. They only needed to obtain the natural treasures. They could even use Yuanjing to buy spiritual medicine to complete the task. However, if they bought spiritual medicine to complete the task, they would often have to pay a sum of Yuanjing. Except for the cultivators who were in urgent need of contributions to the sect, few people would do this.
After submitting the sect mission report, Yang Qi left Tianjianmen again and headed for Wujun County. After a long journey, Yang Qi arrived in Wujun before dark.
"You are quite good at finding places. This restaurant is quite good." When Yang Qi arrived at the restaurant, Chen Ruoshang was already waiting for him by the window.
"Although this restaurant is not the most famous in the county, its environment is the most elegant." Chen Ruoshang chuckled and pushed a glass of wine in front of Yang Qi while speaking.
"The wine is good too."
Yang Qi tasted it and nodded slightly. Although the wine here was not as good as the spiritual wine that Ye Qiu had prepared at the beginning, it was much better than ordinary wine.
Practitioners who have reached the Wuzong level no longer need to deliberately satisfy their appetite, so their need for food is not that strong. On the contrary, because practitioners often travel and fight, wine has become the favorite of countless practitioners.
“I wonder where the opportunity you mentioned is?” Yang Qiluo sat down and transmitted his voice.
"Look outside." Chen Ruoshang did not answer Yang Qi's words, but looked out the window.
Yang Qi was stunned, and followed Chen Ruoshang's gaze, only to see a young man in a blue shirt walking towards the restaurant under the protection of several guards.
"Do you know him?" Yang Qi raised his eyebrows.
The young man's cultivation was not strong, only a four-star martial master, but the guards around him were quite strong, with two high-level martial masters. Although he was only a seven-star martial master, he had two high-level martial masters as his guards, so his status in the city must be quite high.
"This man is the son of the Zhang family in Wujun. The Zhang family is considered one of the top cultivation families in Wujun, and there are several martial arts masters in the family." Chen Ruoshang said slowly.
Hearing Chen Ruoshang's words, Yang Qi did not find it strange. Because it was close to Tianjianmen, the overall strength of the county city was relatively strong. The Zhang family's strength was considered to be at the level of a second-rate force, so it was not surprising that there was an extremely powerful martial arts master in charge.
"This man's name is Zhang Zhiyuan. He bought a Xuanyang grass from me before I entered Hongze. Although he is not very old, he has good talent. It is said that he has the hope of becoming a disciple of Tianjian Sect." Chen Ruoshang said with a little envy.
Join the Tianjian Sect
The corner of Yang Qi's mouth twitched. If it were any other sect, he would be optimistic about this genius from the Zhang family. However, in the Tianjian Sect, the person in charge of the entrance examination is Lei Yun. With his unreliable character, he doesn't even know when the next entrance examination will be held.
"I have participated in the Qingyun Pavilion's entrance examination before, but unfortunately, I was eliminated at the first test." Chen Ruoshang smiled bitterly.
It is not so easy to join a super power. Every year, many practitioners take part in the examination for joining a super power, but only a few succeed. Not to mention the incredibly difficult examination of the Tianjian Sect, even for other super powers, only a few percent of them eventually join the sect.
"I am the only one who knows where the ancient strong man is. I will take you there directly." Chen Ruoshang suddenly said.
Yang Qi was stunned and nodded slightly. Although he was curious about the place that Chen Ruoshang mentioned, the other party was obviously unwilling to say more on this matter, so he didn't dare to ask further.
"What did you say? Do you know who our young master is?"
At this moment, a roar was heard not far away.
Hearing this roar, Yang Qi couldn't help but look back, and saw two groups of people confronting each other in front of a wine table not far away. One of the groups was a group of practitioners, and they were the Zhang family who had just landed.
"Another high-level martial arts master?"
Yang Qi's eyes fell on the few people who were confronting the Zhang family practitioners, and his brows raised. These people were actually high-level martial arts masters. No wonder they dared to clash with the Zhang family practitioners in the county city.
"Forget it, let's go straight to the box!"
Zhang Zhiyuan, the leader, didn't seem to want to have a conflict. He said something lightly and then walked upstairs.
"Hmph~"
The Zhang family practitioner glared at the other party fiercely, then followed Zhang Zhiyuan upstairs.
After the Zhang family practitioners left, Yang Qi's gaze fell on the group of practitioners who had conflicts with the Zhang family. He felt a familiar breath from this group of practitioners.
"These people have changed their appearance?"
Yang Qi's face darkened. The aura of these people gave him a familiar feeling, but because the other party's aura was hidden very well and their appearance had changed, he was unable to remember their identities for a moment.
"Brother Yang, what's wrong?" Chen Ruoshang, who was standing by, couldn't help but ask in surprise when he saw Yang Qi suddenly froze.
"Nothing, I just feel that they are somewhat familiar." Yang Qi shook his head slightly.
"Yeah?"
Chen Ruoshang glanced at those high-level martial masters. They all had the cultivation level of high-level martial masters, but he had never seen them before.
The two stayed in the city for one night and left the county town early the next morning. Under the leadership of Chen Ruoshang, they headed towards their destination.
"Someone is following us!" On the official road, Chen Ruoshang said without turning his head.
"You also discovered it?" Yang Qi said calmly after hearing Chen Ruoshang's words. In fact, he had discovered that someone was secretly watching him since last night, and after they left the county town, these people followed them all the way.
"Two nine-star martial masters, three eight-star martial masters, and one seven-star martial master!" Yang Qi's eyes focused. The group of practitioners following behind him were quite powerful. There were two nine-star martial masters alone!
"The strength of these people lies in me. If a fight breaks out, don't expect me to help you." Chen Ruoshang said unobtrusively.
He was only a six-star martial master, and although he had some trump cards, he was no match for the six high-level martial masters. The other party had followed them all the way and would obviously not let them go easily.
"They are just a few high-level martial masters. I am confident I can handle them." A gleam of light flashed in Yang Qi's eyes. Although he didn't know who the people were, he already had some vague guesses in his mind!
There are many forces that want to kill him, but only one dares to appear so blatantly in Wujun! Liuyun Sect! (To be continued)
