Azure Tiger Core is a Wind Attribute Eighth-Stage Beast Crystal Core. In a small city like Liang City, the influence of an Eighth-Order Beast Core is immense.
After spending half a month training in the Azure Cloud Mountain Range, Peng Cheng and Peng Yue'er returned to Liang City. Both of their strengths had greatly improved; Peng Cheng had finally reached the initial stage of Earth Level Eight, while Peng Yue'er had stepped into the realm of Earth Level Seven. Moreover, they brought back an Eighth-Order Beast Core!
As soon as this news spread, it caused a stir throughout Liang City. From the city lord, Pang Jing, to the playful local dogs, everyone was aware that the Pang Family's Twin Talents from the Fire God Clan had returned triumphantly with an Eighth-Order Beast Core, which brought endless honor and power. Even Pang Jing personally visited the Peng Family with lavish gifts to congratulate them.
……
Holding a teacup, Ye Nantian frowned and said, “Peng Yue'er and Peng Cheng brought back news that they saw Zi Yu and his friend Zhang Tianhe deep in the Azure Cloud Mountain Range. Both of them are severely injured; I wonder if this news is accurate.”
Ye Beichi stood up and said, “Brother, there’s no need to worry too much. When Zi Yu left Liang City, he already possessed extraordinary martial arts. Moreover, his Fire God Bloodline has already begun to awaken. He will surely be able to turn misfortune into fortune in the Azure Cloud Mountain Range. In fact, he might even cultivate to a level surpassing that of Peng Cheng!”
“Hmm, I hope so too!”
……
At this moment, in the Azure Thunder Merchant Association in Liang City.
“Bang!”
The table suddenly shook, causing teacups to jump and spill tea everywhere. A delicate little hand slapped down on the table, leaving a clear palm print.
Lei Xiaodie stood up abruptly, her beautiful face filled with anger. “Uncle Huang, can you say that again?”
At the lower end of the table, an elderly man in a black robe stood respectfully with his head bowed. “Miss, please don’t be angry. This matter is extremely significant. The Redstone Chamber has issued a secret order; this issue cannot be interfered with by others. Otherwise, it would mean opposing the Redstone Alliance. Although we at the Azure Thunder Merchant Association have always maintained neutrality, the power of the Redstone Alliance is too great for us to offend!”
Lei Xiaodie bit her red lip lightly and said, “I promised Ye Yang that I would protect the interests of the Ye Family until his return. I, Lei Xiaodie, keep my word. No matter how great the risk, I will not go back on my promise!”
The old man chuckled and nodded. “Miss, a person without trust cannot stand; I understand this principle. You should also realize that your promise to Ye Yang only involves supporting the operations of the Ye Family Forge, providing them with sufficient materials and manpower. We at the Azure Thunder Merchant Association have already done this. The ones that the Redstone Alliance wants to target are Ye Nantian and Ye Beichi, which have nothing to do with the interests of the Ye Family Forge, so it does not concern us at all!”
Lei Xiaodie was taken aback and murmured, “But... but I cannot…”
“Miss!”
The old man suddenly interrupted her sharply, his gaze turning fierce. “The master entrusted me to return to Liang City because he was worried that your youth and impulsiveness would jeopardize the family’s future. This matter ends here. If you continue to sacrifice your family for an illusory promise, don’t blame me for taking back control of the Azure Thunder Merchant Association!”
As he spoke, the old man took out a golden seal shaped like a qilin from his pocket and placed it on the table.
Lei Xiaodie exclaimed in shock, "Handing over the token? Does... does Father really intend for me to relinquish control of the Azure Thunder Merchant Alliance? Uncle Huang, why is he doing this?"
The elder sighed, "Miss, regarding the matters of the Ye Family and the Fire God Clan, the implications are vast. You must not get involved any further. The Master is doing this solely to protect you better!"
"This..."
Lei Xiaodie clenched her fists tightly, standing there in a daze.
...
On the other side, at the Fire God Clan estate, in the Peng Family hall.
Peng Feng sat high on his throne, stroking his beard and said, "The envoy from the Redstone Alliance? Heh, our Peng Family has never had dealings with Guilds. Why would the renowned Redstone Alliance come to us this time?"
Peng Cheng stood below the steps, respectfully replying, "Should we meet their envoy? As one of the major clans in Liang City, we need to weigh our options carefully. It would be best not to offend a large organization like the Redstone Alliance. For nearly a thousand years, they have stood strong, and no one knows what lies behind them..."
Peng Feng nodded, "Alright, go invite the merchant alliance envoy in!"
"Yes!"
Peng Cheng informed a servant, and soon after, a young man dressed in tight-fitting clothes stepped in. He wore a slender dagger at his waist and moved with an unpredictable grace. He appeared to be around 25 years old, with a handsome face that seemed chiseled from stone. His deep-set eyes sparkled with wildness and determination.
Upon entering the hall, the young man clasped his fists and said, "Redstone Alliance, Fire Plow, greetings to the leader of the Fire God Clan!"
"Fire Plow?!"
Peng Feng laughed heartily as he descended from his throne. "So it's Fire Plow. The Redstone Alliance usually only shows their front but not their back. I wonder why you would take the initiative to approach our Peng Family this time?"
Fire Plow smiled slightly, his lips curling into a faint grin. "Leader, the Redstone Alliance merely wishes to make a deal with the Peng Family. We just need to know if you are willing!"
"Oh? Do tell!" A glint of interest appeared in Peng Feng's eyes.
Fire Plow nodded, his smile widening into a sinister grin. "The Redstone Alliance is willing to exchange the heads of Ye Nantian and Ye Beichi, along with a Battle Axe Radiance, in return for a nod of approval from Pang Zongzhu!"
Peng Feng was taken aback, his expression turning stern. "What do you mean? Ye Nantian is my clan's brother! How dare you suggest taking his life before me? Do you think so little of me, Peng Feng!"
Fire Plow couldn't help but throw back his head and laugh wildly, his demeanor arrogant and unrestrained. "A discerning person wouldn't speak nonsense. A Fire God Warrior has already emerged from the Fire God Clan. The rise of Ye Yang is already a foregone conclusion. If he obtains the Battle Axe Radiance, even if you were to intervene personally, I fear you wouldn't be able to defeat him!"
Peng Feng's gaze was cold, and he shifted his tone, saying, "Fire Plow, what exactly do you mean? Hmph, Ye Nantian is a peak Earth Level Five expert. Why should I believe that you can kill Ye Nantian? You are being incredibly reckless to provoke the relationship between my Peng Family and the Ye Family!"
Suddenly, an invisible pressure locked onto Fire Plow. Peng Feng stepped forward, as if a mountain were pressing down, and the pressure descended, completely enveloping Fire Plow. If Fire Plow could not withstand it, there was no doubt that Peng Feng would ruthlessly strike him down, for he knew too much!
Fire Plow chuckled lightly, his expression calm. Clearly, Ye Nantian was testing him, and Fire Plow understood this well. However, since he dared to come, he had no intention of backing down!
"Ha!"
With a loud shout, Fire Plow launched a counterattack with his momentum. His robe billowed behind him, his expression turning fierce. His long hair danced wildly as his eyes shone brightly. He suddenly raised his hand and sliced through the air, effortlessly breaking the lock of Peng Feng's pressure!
"Swish swish swish..."
A stream of Starlight Power surged forth, forcing Peng Feng to retreat several steps.
"What's this? A Starry Sky Expert!!!"
