”Subordinate Qing She, greets the three Palace Masters.” Upon seeing the three men seated high upon their thrones, the Green Snake Elder did not hesitate and knelt on one knee, saying.

He saw in front of him three people seated high above, each one almost unbelievably familiar to him.

From left to back, the first was an elder with sideburns, whose appearance seemed unremarkable, but his eyes gave a feeling of extreme oppression and pressure.

Even with the extraordinary cultivation of Peak of Qi Refining Ninth Layer that the Green Snake Elder possessed, being stared at by him made it feel as if a mountain was pressing down on his shoulders, a tremendous pressure.

This person was none other than the renowned Great Palace Master of Purple Flame Palace in the Eagle Gorge Area, a Foundation Establishment True Person Realm First Heavenly Layer expert! Lii Kun!

Unlike other ordinary Foundation Establishment True Person Realm experts, Lii Kun did not rely on seniority to sit in the position of Great Palace Master of Purple Flame Palace, but on strength!

He had stepped into the Peak of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm First Heavenly Layer level as early as thirty years ago. Now thirty years later, although he hadn’t yet stepped into the Second Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm, the distance was just a mere half-step away perhaps?

Counting from left to right, the second was dressed in a black robe, with white hair and youthful features, though amidst the messy hair stood a pair of striking horns!

Obviously, this second person was not human. He was a bull demon refined to perfection.

This was the Second Palace Master of Purple Flame Palace, possessing cultivation of the First Heavenly Layer of Third-Level Demonic Beast, known by the nickname, Giant Ox!

Over time, everyone just called him Giant Ox Taoist.

As for the third person counted from left to right, he was the newly appointed Third Palace Master of Purple Sun Palace in recent years, with an elderly face marked by liver spots, a bald head, and a human, named Yang Xiong.

These three naturally determined the title ranking of Palace Master by strength. Like Lii Kun, the strongest of the three, becoming the Great Palace Master.

And Yang Xiong, who had just entered the First Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm, was the weakest, thus the Third Palace Master.

”Alright, stand up.”

The Great Palace Master of Purple Flame Palace, Lii Kun, looked at the Green Snake Elder with a calm face, his eyes were still a bit drooping, as if lost in thought, after a while, he slowly asked: ”The Red Lion Daoist died? Was it you who did it?”

”...Yes, it was me who killed him.” The Green Snake Elder was slightly stunned, nodded, and said.

”I heard that the Second Cave Master of Red Lion Cave, seems to be called Yun Shi? Wasn’t he favored by the son of Yan Zhen Sect Yee Mu, Yee Qing, and taken as a mount?” Upon seeing the Green Snake Elder’s admission, the Third Palace Master of Purple Flame Palace, Yang Xiong, said blandly.

”Yes, Third Palace Master, that’s correct. That Yun Shi Taoist was indeed favored by Yee Qing of Yan Zhen Sect and taken as a mount.” The Green Snake Elder again nodded and said.

”Then why did you kill him? If Yan Zhen Sect truly pursues this matter, it would be troublesome for us.” Obviously, the Second Palace Master of Purple Flame Palace, Giant Ox Taoist, did not have so much complexity and asked directly, face puzzled.

”Reporting to the three Palace Masters, there was a reason for my actions, though I was a bit rash this time, I hope the three Palace Masters will forgive me.” The Green Snake Elder immediately lowered his head and said.

”Alright, speak up, what exactly happened?” Lii Kun waved his hand, stood up, and said slowly.

”Here’s what happened, I found out from the Red Lion Daoist’s mouth that deep within the Black Profound Copper Vein of Enlightened Deity Cave, there seems to be a hidden micro Black Profound Copper Essence Vein.” The Green Snake Elder finally did not hesitate further and spoke directly.

”What!? Black Profound Copper Essence Vein, are you sure?” Upon hearing this, even the three Palace Masters of Purple Flame Palace were stunned. The Third Palace Master Yang Xiong directly stood up, expression serious and excited.

You’re kidding, what concept is a micro Black Profound Copper Essence Vein? It would be enough to buy out most of their Purple Flame Palace! And now...

”Reporting to the three Palace Masters, I am certain.” The Green Snake Elder without hesitation nodded and said: ”After learning this, I secretly went to the depths of the Black Profound Copper Mine and investigated, indeed, I found traces of a large-scale Black Profound Copper Essence Vein!”

Pow!

The Second Palace Master, Giant Ox Taoist, directly smacked the armrest of the chair with his large palm, causing it to explode into powder.

Then he was seen with an extremely excited face, saying: ”Big Brother, Old Three, this is a great joyful event! If we can fully mine the micro Black Profound Copper Essence Vein, we would be rich!”

”Right. It’s just that my Lang Yun Stick was severely damaged after the last battle and seems incapable of recovering. If we mine that micro Black Profound Copper Essence Vein, buying another Top Grade Magic Artifact would be no problem at all.” The Third Palace Master Yang Xiong said, somewhat excited.

Cultivation, cultivation, in the end, is somewhat like a ’money-burning’ luxurious activity.

So don’t look at the three of them, appearing mighty, dignified as the three great Palace Masters of Purple Flame Palace with unparalleled noble status, but in reality, they are also struggling financially due to their vast family and business.

Otherwise, how could someone like Yang Xiong, with a dignified First Heavenly Layer cultivation level in Foundation Establishment True Person Realm, as the Third Palace Master of Purple Flame Palace, still use an almost scrapped Top Grade Magic Artifact?

In the end, it’s because they’re poor! No spirit stones. But now the situation is different.

What concept is a micro Black Profound Copper Essence Vein? Simply put, that is spirit stones, brilliant spirit stones, mountains of shining spirit stones, and just the thought of such a scene is enough to make one’s blood boil.

”Micro Black Profound Copper Essence Vein. I didn’t expect that in those barren hills and rivers of Enlightened Deity Cave, there would be, wait... Enlightened Deity Cave?” The Great Palace Master Lii Kun was initially excited, but when he recalled the term from the Green Snake Elder’s words, he froze suddenly, his brows furrowing deeply.

”Qing She, did you say that Enlightened Deity Cave is the former Golden Toad Cave under our Purple Flame Palace? Now, taken over by someone, rumored to be Cang Kun and Blue Whale of Canglan Island?” He then opened his mouth and asked.

”Cang Kun and Blue Whale?” Upon hearing these two names, even Giant Ox Taoist and Yang Xiong frowned deeply.

”Yes.”

Upon hearing Lii Kun’s inquiry, the Green Snake Elder immediately nodded and said: ”Yes, Great Palace Master. Previously, the Red Lion Daoist joined forces with Cloud Dragon Mountain to attack Enlightened Deity Cave, and as a result, Taoist Cang Kun was drawn out, and the leading figures from Cloud Dragon Mountain were all killed.”

”So, this means that Cang Kun and Blue Whale found the Black Profound Copper Essence Vein buried in Golden Toad Cave’s Black Profound Copper Mine, and thus took action, secretly claiming Golden Toad Cave for themselves, intending to secretly mine the Black Profound Copper Essence Vein?” Upon hearing the Green Snake Elder’s words, Lii Kun’s brow furrowed even deeper, analyzing.

”What! Secretly mining the Black Profound Copper Vein? What nerve Cang Kun and Blue Whale have, that Black Profound Copper Essence Vein is ours from Purple Flame Palace. Elder Brother, why are you still hesitating? Shouldn’t we hurry to Enlightened Deity Cave and take back the Black Profound Copper Essence Vein?”

The Second Palace Master, Giant Ox Taoist, upon hearing the implication that their duck nearly got stolen, how could he tolerate it?

He immediately jumped up, thundering loudly!

To kill towards Enlightened Deity Cave, to ’reclaim’ what belongs to their Black Profound Copper Essence Vein.

It’s a joke, the entire North Side Area of Eagle Gorge is their territory of Purple Flame Palace!

How could the Black Profound Copper Essence Vein escape?
