Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Chapter 1102: Chapter 1102: We Both Know This Person!

”Hehe, the Wuyan Cloth consists of four fragments in total. Holding onto this one is of no use to me, so I might as well let it become something beautiful for others and give it to Brother Long as a personal favor!”

Seeing that Long Xiwawa did not reach out to accept it, Su Jian wasn’t bothered and laughed softly. In the next moment, he had already forcibly placed the Wuyan Cloth into the somewhat dazed Long Xiwawa’s hand.

Gripping the worn cloth that had some connection to his cultivation technique, Long Xiwawa no longer had any doubts. This was indeed the Wuyan Cloth he had been searching for in vain for many years, a precious item relating to the inheritance of the Supreme Treasure of Wuyan Palace.

”In that case, many thanks to Brother Su!”

Seeing that the Wuyan Cloth was now in his hands and the other party had no further actions, Long Xiwawa couldn’t figure out what scheme this guy was concocting, so he could only bow in thanks. After all, this was something he had longed for.

”I have another piece of news that Brother Long will surely be interested in!”

A glimmer of a hidden light flashed in Su Jian’s eyes, and his next words made Long Xiwawa’s heart shiver. He thought to himself that the main show had finally arrived, and things were not as simple as he had imagined. This guy, as expected, wouldn’t do anything without meaning.

Long Xiwawa didn’t speak, just kept his eyes fixed on Su Jian. His grip on the Wuyan Cloth tightened as he made up his mind; no matter what this guy said, he would not let go of the Wuyan Cloth once it was in his hands.

”Does Brother Long know where the remaining three fragments of the Wuyan Cloth are?”

Su Jian paid no attention to Long Xiwawa’s state, and as soon as he said this, the latter’s body shook. Sharing a glance with Duan Wuya, they could see a hint of unusual excitement in each other’s eyes.

Although Long Xiwawa had obtained one of the Wuyan Cloth fragments earlier, he knew full well that a single fragment was of no real use. Only by gathering all four could the true veil of Wuyan Palace’s Supreme Treasure be lifted.

This was an opportunity for Wuyan Palace to potentially surpass the other Three Top Forces and dominate the Tenglong Continent singlehandedly. Long Xiwawa believed that if he accomplished this task, becoming the next Palace Master of Wuyan Palace would be a certainty.

Originally, Long Xiwawa didn’t expect to receive information on the other three Wuyan Cloth fragments, but he didn’t anticipate that Su Jian would say such words, which utterly surprised him.

”Please do enlighten me, Brother Su!”

At this moment, Long Xiwawa finally became courteous. Regardless of whether the news Su Jian was about to share was true or false, the Wuyan Cloth in his hand was real. For this reason alone, he owed Su Jian a major favor.

”In fact, aside from this fragment of the Wuyan Cloth, the other three fragments are most likely in the hands of one person!”

Su Jian could imagine Long Xiwawa’s feelings and decided to tease him further, making the latter even more eager yet unable to not follow his lead.

”This person is someone we both know—Yun Xiao!”

Seeing that he had successfully piqued Long Xiwawa’s interest, a gleam of brilliance flickered in Su Jian’s eyes. At his words, both Long Xiwawa and Duan Wuya trembled and turned their gazes to Su Jian, as if trying to peer into the mind of this number one genius of the Spirit Fighting Commerce.

Truth be told, when he heard the name ”Yun Xiao”, Long Xiwawa’s first reaction was to wonder if this was Su Jian’s ultimate motive—to incite deeper conflicts between him and Yun Xiao so that he could reap the benefits.

After all, Long Xiwawa had witnessed in the seventh level of Xuanyin Cave how Su Jian harbored resentment towards Yun Xiao. Between the two, the possibility of reconciliation had long been reduced to none—they were in an undying conflict.

In comparison, Long Xiwawa and Yun Xiao had no deep-seated hatred, and at most had a competitive clash over the Illusion Yin Grass.

At least the two geniuses of Wuyan Palace were still standing here unharmed, unlike the Spirit Fighting Commerce, which now had only Su Jian left on his own.

”Brother Long must be thinking that I’m trying to sow discord, right?”

To his surprise, Su Jian saw right through Long Xiwawa and Duan Wuya’s thoughts and spoke directly, such straightforwardness left the two brothers perplexed.

”Brother Long guessed correctly; I am indeed trying to sow discord between Wuyan Palace and Yun Xiao!”

Yet, as soon as Long Xiwawa and Duan Wuya thought they had misunderstood Su Jian, he candidly confirmed it himself, leaving them even more confused.

Long Xiwawa, who had seen countless schemes and plots, had never before witnessed someone being so brazen about sowing discord. Could such words even be effective?

The answer is: Yes!

Su Jian lifted his head, glanced at Long Xiwawa who appeared somewhat perplexed, and chuckled lightly, ”Let me ask Brother Long this: if the remaining three Wuyan Cloth fragments are truly with Yun Xiao, even if you know I’m sowing discord, would you resist seeking him out?”

Clearly, Su Jian was utterly confident. Having declared his intentions, he once again pointed out a fact. Listening to his words, Long Xiwawa finally understood why this fellow was being so transparent.

As Su Jian said, searching for Wuyan Cloth has been Wuyan Palace’s top priority for many years. Numerous cultivators have been sent out by Wuyan Palace openly and secretly to search for the Wuyan Cloth, yet they have never gotten the slightest clue about it.

Therefore, from the moment Su Jian said that the remaining three pieces of Wuyan Cloth are in Yun Xiao’s possession, whether the news is true or false, Long Xiwa could not treat it indifferently. He must get an answer before he would relent.

Despite Yun Xiao’s performance in Xuanyin Cave causing many young geniuses to lose interest in opposing him, Long Xiwa is not an ordinary genius, and he has the massive Wuyan Palace behind him.

Strictly speaking, objects like the Wuyan Cloth, once their background is known, will undoubtedly be seen as a hot potato by any cultivator on the Tenglong Continent who obtains them.

More likely, they would act like Su Jian just now, presenting the Wuyan Cloth to Wuyan Palace in exchange for a favor.

After all, a single Wuyan Cloth is of little use and might even provoke formidable enemies like Wuyan Palace. There are only a few ambitious people like Yun Xiao and Xiao Qiming.

”Younger brother is at the headquarters of the Spirit Fighting Commerce, so I can hear some news. Not long ago, I got the information that Yun Xiao is at Bianlei City in the Southern Domain of the continent...”

Seeing that the other party had been stirred by his words, Su Jian wore a smug expression and detailed the information he had acquired, causing the gleam in Long Xiwa’s eyes to become more intense.

Back then, after Yun Xiao obtained the first piece of Wuyan Cloth, he went to Shenxiao Sect for identification. Later, by a twist of fate, at a Bianlei City auction, he acquired a fragment of Wuyan Cloth, sparking Xiao Qiming of the Xiao Family’s desire for the things Yun Xiao owned.

Later, by the banks of Bian Jiantian Lake, Xiao Qiming was killed by Yun Xiao, and the Wuyan Cloth fragment in his Waist Storage naturally fell into Yun Xiao’s hands.

No one originally knew about these things, until Su Jian inadvertently obtained a piece of Wuyan Cloth himself and combined the news from the Bianlei City auction that was transmitted back to the headquarters, forming his own conclusions with his remarkable intellect.

This analysis is very close to the truth, and in fact, Su Jian’s initial discord sowing was essentially aiding Wuyan Palace in retrieving the remaining three pieces of Wuyan Cloth.

After hearing Su Jian’s analysis, Long Xiwa was seventy to eighty percent sure that the remaining three pieces of Wuyan Cloth were indeed in Yun Xiao’s possession.

The only issue now is that Yun Xiao is within Xuanyin Hall, making it entirely impossible for Long Xiwa to trouble Yun Xiao. Moreover, even if he were able to enter Xuanyin Hall, he and Duan Wuya together might not be able to contend with Yun Xiao.

Thus, this matter must be approached slowly. Fortunately, Long Xiwa knows that Yun Xiao cannot stay in Xuanyin Hall forever; eventually, there will be a day when he comes out. Taking advantage of this time, proper arrangements can be made.

...

Xuanyin Hall, Guest Courtyard!

Perhaps knowing Yun Xiao has a good relationship with the Spiritual Pill Courtyard, Xuanyin Hall arranged Yun Xiao’s accommodations not far from the Spiritual Pill Courtyard. Xu Hongzhuang’s quarters are not too far either. As the evening grew darker, the two had just left Yun Xiao’s courtyard.

Whoosh!

In the tranquil courtyard, a sound suddenly pierced the air, as a small fiery red shadow darted in, causing Yun Xiao, who was meditating on the bed, to open his eyes immediately.

”Chi Yan!”

Yun Xiao was no stranger to the little creature that jumped onto his shoulder after entering the room. With Chi Yan’s identity, it was impossible for him to enter Xuanyin Cave, so he had been acting alone during this period.

Yet, Xuanyin Hall is full of Yin Cold attributes, which Chi Yan extremely dislikes, hence most of his activities were within Extreme Yin City. Sensing the Demon Meridian Qi on the little creature, Yun Xiao knew he had found some good Fire attribute items during this period.

”Half-step Ninth Rank!”

The originally Eighth Rank Advanced Vein Demon, Fire Cloud Rat Chi Yan, has astonishingly reached the half-step Ninth Rank level at this moment. His combat power might be even stronger than Su Jian, Long Xiwa, and others.

”Chi Yan, protect me!”

Chi Yan’s further breakthrough is certainly a tremendous support for Yun Xiao; however, now is not the time for a reunion. The next moment, his commanding voice fell, and with a wave of his right hand, a dark red Medicine Tripod appeared before him.

Back when Yun Xiao was refining the Flame Burst Pill beside Jiantian Lake for Chi Yan, the Destruction of the cauldron occurred, making him increasingly aware of the importance of the Medicine Tripod, which could be fatal at crucial moments.

Thus, the Medicine Tripod in front of him was acquired by Yun Xiao at the Refining Cloud Mountain Headquarters. It wasn’t obtained through regular channels but taken from Bai Wushuang’s Waist Storage.

As the former top talent of Heavenly Hospital, Bai Wushuang’s Waist Storage had quite a few good items.
