After agreeing to send three representatives each for a duel in ten days, with the stipulation that only those under forty years of age could participate, the winner would claim the Jin Yuan Mine, while the losing side would have no right to interfere or send anyone to disrupt the contest.
The Blood Demon Manor had several formidable cultivators under forty, with Qing Zidi being among them, possessing skills generally at the third or fourth level of the Xuan Yuan Realm. There was no guarantee of victory for them.
I reported your abilities and those of your master, including your capability to slay someone at the sixth level of the Xuan Yuan Realm. Thus, your master intends for you to take action and secure the Jin Yuan Mine for us.
Yun Fan was somewhat taken aback upon hearing this. He hadn’t anticipated discovering a Jin Yuan Mine; such a treasure was incredibly valuable for forging weapons, worth nearly as much as spirit stones.
After some contemplation, he decided it wouldn’t hurt to participate; after all, it was just a duel. If he won, the Blood Demon Elder would likely regard him with greater esteem and would probably lend assistance in future difficulties.
He nodded in agreement. “No problem.”
Seeing Yun Fan’s consent, Zhou Da Cong’s smile grew even brighter as he chuckled. “Yun Fan, you must perform well in the duel. If you impress our master, you will surely receive many rewards.”
Yun Fan smiled back. He had already experienced the Blood Demon Elder’s generosity firsthand; just participating could yield a reward of ten thousand Middle-Grade Spirit Stones, which was a substantial fortune even for him.
At that moment, a middle-aged man approached slowly, his cold expression softening into a slight smile.
“Junior Brother Da Cong,” he said.
Both of them halted their conversation and turned to face the middle-aged man. Zhou Da Cong wore a sincere expression and respectfully replied, “Senior Brother Yue Mo.”
As Yue Mo walked closer and glanced at Yun Fan beside him, he smiled and asked, “May I know who this brother is? He seems somewhat familiar.”
Zhou Da Cong immediately introduced him. “Senior Brother Yue Mo, this is our master’s recent disciple named Yun Fan.”
“Yun Fan,” he continued, “this is our master’s eldest disciple. His strength has already reached the Profound Origin Realm Pinnacle; he is just one step away from breaking through to the Diyuan Realm.”
Upon hearing this, Yue Mo understood why Yun Fan seemed familiar; he realized that this was the young man who had entered Chi Long Valley not long ago. Back then, Yun Fan was merely at the True Essence Realm Level Seven, but in just a few months, he had advanced to the Xuan Yuan Realm.
Such an astonishing rate of cultivation explained why their master had taken notice of him.
The smile on his face was radiant as he spoke softly.
It turned out to be Yun Fan, a junior disciple whom the Master had mentioned before, known for his exceptional talent. Seeing him in person today truly confirmed his extraordinary nature.
Yun Fan noticed Yue Mo's politeness and did not put on a stern face. After all, they were both disciples of the Blood Demon Elder, so it was natural not to let things become too awkward. With a friendly smile, he clasped his hands together and said, "I have come to pay my respects to Senior Brother."
Yue Mo laughed heartily and replied, "Junior Brother Yun Fan, if you ever need anything in the future, just let me know. I will certainly do my best to help you."
Upon hearing this, Yun Fan had no intention of being polite. Judging by the terrifying pressure emanating from Yue Mo, he believed that in no time at all, he would be able to break through barriers and reach the Diyuan Realm, becoming a top-tier powerhouse.
With a smile, he said, "Thank you, Senior Brother. I will definitely seek your assistance whenever needed."
After chatting for a while, their relationship grew much closer.
