Chapter 2040: Chapter 2040: Divine Blood Family

Upon hearing the young man’s inquiry, Master Chi hesitated for a moment and said:

"Young Master, you should know that I am skilled in Artifact Refining, and the most important aspect of refining artifacts is having an extremely strong perception."

"The ability to perceive subtle changes between various materials."

"This ability can also be applied to sensing people."

"Based on my perception, the person who bought the Simurgh Feather shouldn’t be over thirty years old."

"Moreover, his Cultivation level seems to be at the Divinity Transformation Realm on the surface, but in reality, he gives me a very dangerous feeling."

"Oh?"

The young man raised an eyebrow.

"Thirty years old? Divinity Transformation Realm?"

"So, this person must have an extraordinary background, right?"

Master Chi nodded.

"Furthermore, I can sense that he possesses not just one Ten Thousand Year Spirit Medicine."

Hearing this, a sharp light suddenly flashed in the young man’s eyes.

He stood up and coldly stared at Master Chi.

"If that’s the case, we should never have let him go."

Master Chi shook his head and said:

"Young Master, do not be angry."

"Listen to my speculation."

The young man snorted coldly.

"You’d better give me a reasonable explanation."

Master Chi took a deep breath and said:

"Young Master, think about it, in today’s Heavenly Origin World, apart from the Five Great Venerables and those few powerful Loose Cultivators, who else could have so many Ten Thousand Year Spirit Medicines!"

Upon hearing this, the young man was stunned, then frowned and said:

"What do you mean?"

Master Chi said in a deep voice:

"Since this person has so many Ten Thousand Year Spirit Medicines, and with such high Cultivation at a young age, his origin must be unusual."

"You mean he’s someone under a Venerable or a top-tier expert?"

Master Chi shook his head.

"It’s possible, but not likely."

"After all, I have seen some of the main figures of the Five Great Venerables more or less, but this person’s aura is very unfamiliar."

"Then what do you mean?"

"Besides the Five Great Venerables and those few Loose Cultivator experts, there is one more force extremely skilled in cultivating Spiritual Medicines," Master Chi said, his eyes deep.

The young man was stunned for a moment, then narrowed his eyes.

"The Ming Family?"

Master Chi nodded.

"The Ming Family, like the Long Family, belongs to the Divine Blood Family. Their strength is no weaker than ours, let alone having a Venerable behind them."

"Now is the critical moment for us to deal with the Ye Family, and at this juncture, it’s not wise to provoke a major enemy!"

Upon hearing this, the young man’s expression shifted uncertainly. After a long time, he sat back down.

"Alright."

"You’ve worked hard this time."

"I will commend you to the family."

Upon hearing this, Master Chi hurriedly bowed in thanks.

"Thank you, Young Master."

...

Elsewhere, Zhou Yu was on his way to Little Qingshan.

Meanwhile, in another direction, a few hundred miles away from Little Qingshan, two figures were confronting each other.

One of them was precisely Wen Lizhou, who had dueled with Zhou Yu at the Heavenly Martial Pavilion to compete for the Spiritual Land of Little Qingshan.

At this moment, Wen Lizhou’s face was cold as he stared at a slightly chubby man in front of him.

This man was his friend, Jin Wudun.

However, the atmosphere between the two had dropped to freezing point.

"Jin Wudun, ever since you left Fengyuan City, you’ve been following me, haven’t you?"

"Do you have any business with me?"

Jin Wudun chuckled.

"Brother Wen, you’ve misunderstood. I just happened to pass by here."

"A mere coincidence."

"Coincidence?" Wen Lizhou coldly snorted.

"You’ve been sneaking behind me for hundreds of miles, and you call this a coincidence?"

Having been exposed by Wen Lizhou, Jin Wudun didn’t explain further but cheerfully stared at Wen Lizhou, saying:

"Brother Wen, although you’ve been leading me around in circles for hundreds of miles, I can see that your destination is still the Spiritual Land of Little Qingshan."

"Based on what I know about you, you wouldn’t give up your top-tier Spiritual Land without reason and fight for a piece of trash land."

"Surely your interest in Little Qingshan isn’t just to learn some secret technique."

Upon hearing this, the corner of Wen Lizhou’s eye twitched, and he coldly stared at Jin Wudun.

"What?"

"Do I need to report my affairs to you?"

Jin Wudun laughed heartily and said:

"That’s not necessary."

"We’ve known each other for hundreds of years."

"We can be considered close friends."

"Brother Wen, whatever you’re up to, I’m more than happy to help."

"I’m here this time to remind you that Little Qingshan is now occupied. According to Fengyuan City’s rules, you cannot trespass. If that kid from Little Qingshan finds out, even your background could bring you trouble."

"But with my help, that kid would never notice."

With that, Jin Wudun smiled warmly at Wen Lizhou, looking quite endearing.

However, inside, Wen Lizhou was enraged.

How could he not tell that Jin Wudun’s reminder was actually a threat?

A cold light flashed in Wen Lizhou’s eyes, and in the next moment, he suddenly reached out.

Out of nowhere, more than a dozen green-glowing needles appeared behind Jin Wudun.

These needles instantly formed a dense net, attacking towards Jin Wudun from behind.

Just as the needle net was about to pierce Jin Wudun, a tattered cloak on his body suddenly burst with a powerful golden light.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In an instant, the dense net of needles hitting the cloak produced the sound of metal clashing.

In the next moment, that golden light flashed, directly bouncing off the needle net behind him.

Upon witnessing this, Wen Lizhou once again waved his hand, and a short sword appeared instantly in front of Jin Wudun.

A blinding silver light flashed from the short sword.

Subsequently, it emanated a terrifying Sword Force, slashing horizontally at Jin Wudun.

Yet, Jin Wudun merely sneered and reached out.

The cloak on his body unexpectedly transformed into a long spear, nearly a meter long.

Then, holding the long spear, Jin Wudun swept it across, creating a terrifying spear shadow in the void.

Boom!

In an instant, the sword and spear clashed together.

The short sword Wen Lizhou had emitted was directly shattered by the sweeping spear.

Seeing the shattered short sword, Wen Lizhou’s pupils contracted sharply.

"A top-tier Ancient Treasure!"

Jin Wudun chuckled.

"Nice eye, Brother Wen."

"This spear is called the All Things Sky-piercing Spear!"

"Brother Wen, take another spear from me!"

As he spoke, Jin Wudun thrust the All Things Sky-piercing Spear forward.

At the moment he thrust the spear, thousands upon thousands of spear shadows appeared in the void.

Moreover, each of these spear shadows emitted a chilling murderous intent, not at all like mere illusions.

The moment the myriad spear shadows appeared, Wen Lizhou’s face changed dramatically.

At this moment, he felt a chilling sense of death.

"Senior Ying, save me!"

Wen Lizhou shouted urgently as he swiftly retreated...
