Chapter 1483 - 1459: Xiao Yang Peak

"Enough, Zhen Yuanzi, you really are unbelievably stingy. Even I look down on this kind of wine, you think my disciple would fancy it?"

Han Buyan snorted. "Quit hiding things and spit it out. Whatever you've got, hurry and take it out. Is a senior to a junior really this petty?"

Zhen Yuanzi looked helpless. "I yield, I yield. But I really don't have much. How about this, I'll give you a bracelet."

Zhen Yuanzi took out a red bracelet from his sleeve.

"This bracelet is a fine Magical Artifact. Keep it, it'll be useful for you later."

Ren Feng smiled. "Senior Zhen Yuanzi, actually I don't need it, it's fine."

"Turning down a free gift, huh? You little rascal, he's got plenty of treasures. Whatever he takes out are the leftovers, the good stuff he all hoards for himself."

Zhen Yuanzi's face was full of helplessness, and Ren Feng could only put the bracelet away.

His divine sense probed inside, and he immediately discovered that the bracelet could expand and shrink, and its quality was indeed excellent.

"Alright, I've still got things to do, I'll be leaving first."

Zhen Yuanzi stood up.

"Hey, the game's not finished yet."

"Finish what, I'm done playing."

Seeing Zhen Yuanzi fly off, Han Buyan waved his hand, and the teapot set to the side flew over.

"Sit, don't just stand there like an idiot."

Ren Feng sat down opposite Han Buyan, and after Han Buyan finished his tea, he sized Ren Feng up, and his eyes were instantly full of amazement.

"Damn, how did your cultivation break through again?"

"I broke through earlier."

"Give me your hand."

Ren Feng extended his hand, Han Buyan examined it, and his eyes were immediately filled with disbelief.

"No way, the Nine Yang Tribulation is gone?"

"Well, it's a long story. I ran into a woman with a Nine Yin constitution."

Pfft!

Han Buyan stared at Ren Feng in disbelief, while Ren Feng looked innocent. "I'm telling the truth."

"Looks like your luck really is damn good."

Han Buyan let out a sigh. "Right now I'm nothing more than at the super-Saint level, and as time goes by, that sense of shackling just keeps getting stronger. You should be able to feel it now too, right?"

"I can feel it."

"This time, for you, should count as an opportunity. Dragon Domain should've given you a quota."

"Old man, you even know that?"

"What don't I know? Don't look at me staying in the Kunlun Divine Domain, my ears aren't stuck here."

Ren Feng was a bit stunned. After Han Buyan finished bragging, he looked at Ren Feng and was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "This time, what are you planning to do?"

Ren Feng knew what Han Buyan meant. This time he'd come to the Kunlun Divine Domain for the Ren Family, for what happened back then.

"This matter isn't something I can easily get involved in. And at this juncture, whatever you do might trigger some unrest. The Ren Family is, after all, a well-known clan in the Kunlun Divine Domain, has good relations with several other families, and vaguely counts as about one-tenth of the Kunlun Divine Domain's foundation."

Ren Feng looked at the waterfall endlessly pouring down in the distance. "Whatever needs to be done, I'll do it."

Han Buyan nodded. "Then go do it. Don't overthink. This time's fight over quotas, they'll probably be arguing for months. They started bickering the day I arrived a few days ago, and they still haven't gotten anywhere."

"I'll visit the Ren Family tomorrow."

"Alright, then just wander around as you like today. If you're interested, you can go take a look at Xiao Yang Peak. They're practically losing their minds up there."

...

On the other side, Dong Cheng flew into the Sword Pavilion's territory with Qingqiu.

"Hold on a second, let me bandage you up."

Dong Cheng actually took out medicine and started bandaging Qingqiu's arm.

"Mr. Dong, actually my injury is almost healed."

"Healed my ass, the qi inside you is still in chaos. In a bit I'll go to the pharmacy and have them prescribe you a few sets of medicine, let you properly recuperate. Whoever was chasing you really was ruthless, how could they bring themselves to strike like that."

Qingqiu said with a smile, "But Mr. Dong, I can't sit still. I can't just sit here and wait for the medicine, can I? I want to walk around."

"Sure, once you finish the medicine, I can take you for a stroll."

"Really?"

"Of course it's real. I'm still relatively familiar with the Kunlun Divine Domain."

"Then I like crowded places. Oh right, when we came earlier, we saw that mountaintop with lots of people. What were they doing?"

"That's called Xiao Yang Peak, it's the place where the Kunlun Divine Domain discusses affairs. Whenever there's a major event, the forces of the Kunlun Divine Domain send people there to negotiate. Same this time."

"Is that so?" Qingqiu blinked. "Did something happen in the Kunlun Divine Domain?"

"That… I'm not sure either. I can take you there later."

Dong Cheng said with a smile, "Lately all the major forces have been quarreling like crazy, and some outside experts want to get a piece of the pie too. Apparently it's about stepping into the second step."

"Second step?" Qingqiu's heart stirred.

"Right. Word is Dragon Domain has found a way to step into the second step, but it requires fifty Saint Realm experts in total to activate."

"Then let's go take a look later."

After helping to bandage the wound, Dong Cheng went out together with Qingqiu, and before they left, they ran into Sima Nan again.

"Senior Brother."

"Yo, you two heading out?"

Sima Nan asked with a smile.

"Yeah, going to take a look at Xiao Yang Peak." Dong Cheng said with a smile. "Qingqiu said she wants to see it."

"Oh?" Sima Nan's heart moved, and he said with a smile, "Why don't we go together? I'm idle anyway."

"Sure."

At this moment, Xiao Yang Peak really was in chaos. Representatives from the One Pavilion, Two Palaces, Three Gates, and Four Families had all been sent, and several outside powerhouses were also seated there.

Their stance was simple: if they contributed, they wanted benefits.

But that was impossible. The quotas were limited, so all they could do was argue.

"No way." The old man Long Yang shook his head. "Don't forget, there are many uncertainties this time. It's experimental. Moreover, the key item for activating the Array was found by our Dragon Domain."

"What do you mean 'no way'? You said it needs the energy of fifty Saint Realm experts, matched with energy stones to activate. We in the Kunlun Divine Domain can contribute two-thirds of those fifty experts. Why can't you give us more quotas?"

From the distance, Ren Feng watched them arguing, a bit surprised. The old man Long Yang had come in person?

What he hadn't expected was that the man Dragon Domain sent earlier couldn't handle it at all, so they could only send Long Yang over to smooth things out.

Long Yang said with a squinty smile, "Even if everyone from the Kunlun Divine Domain shows up, without this thing, you still have no way to activate it."

A round stone sphere appeared in Long Yang's hand, and that stone sphere fell into Qingqiu's line of sight.

"What's that?"

Qingqiu asked curiously.

"No idea. They say it's the key item for activating the Array."
