Chapter 169: Lon Relic Trantor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Ancient Lon was inside the Lon City of the Ancient Barren World. For countless years, Ancient Lon controlled this old city. They even built a pce inside. Apparently, it connected the outer world to the true Lon pce. Even the top forces from the Barren City couldn’t shake Ancient Lon’s status in this city. ording to rumors, Ancient Lon only had one reason for controlling the Lon pce, forbidding anyone from looking into it—the Lon Relic.
The Lon Relic was the most well-known relic of Lon City. Apparently, even Ancient Lon didn’t have some of the items inside. Thus, for many years, Ancient Lon had been sending strong cultivators into the relic to dig everything out. To enter the relic, one must receive permission from the Lon royalty. Therefore, Qian Yang went straight to the Lon pce after arriving at the city. Clearly, he was prepared and had nned this early on.
The pce was the most majestic building in the Lon City. It had an ancient aura about it. When Ye Futian’s group arrived, the ck Wind Eagle and Wind Roc descended. Many people were outside the pce, gazing at the steps before the pce and the majestic arched gate. There were also many guards.
“Qian Yang, the young master of the Qianmeng area is here to visit,” Shi Tong called in the pce’s direction as he stepped forward.
“Wee,” a guard dered, raising his spear. He seemed to know about their group’s visit and let them through.
Qian Yang walked forward. The others followed and entered the Lon pce. Many people in the pce looked at them with a strange expression. They seemed toe from Qianmeng City. The junior leader hade personally with his group. It was obvious they were here for the Lon Relic but many top figures from all over the Ancient Barren World hade. Things were going to get interesting.
The group was brought to a peaceful ce. There were various independent pavilions and they chose one each.
“Ye Futian, go rest in your pavilions first. I’ll find you if anything happens,” Qian Yang said.
Ye Futian’s eyes shed. Along the way, he’d asked Yun Qianmo some questions but she didn’t know much. She only knew that this trip was for the Lon Relic and didn’t know anything else.
“Young master, can you exin this trip to us?” Ye Futian asked.
“What are you in a hurry for?” Beside Qian Yang, Yue Linglong smiled at Ye Futian. Her sexy body was alluring and so were her eyes. “Since Young Master Qian brought you to the pce, he’ll naturally take you into the relic. Just wait for news.”
“But I’m still unsure about some things,” Ye Futian replied. He didn’t believe that Qian Yang had brought him out of the good of his heart. There must be another reason.
“You don’t need to know,” Shi Tong said indifferently.
“Ye Futian.” Qian Yang reached out to stop Shi Tong and said, “I know your suspicions. The relic is a magical ce. You won’t receive anything just because you’re in a high ne. I need your talent so I teamed up with you. If we receive anything in the relic, we can discuss how to split it. You don’t need to worry over anything else.”
“Okay.” Ye Futian nodded. He walked away towards the pavilion he would reside in.
After entering the pavilion, Lin Yueyao’s pretty eyes shed. “I don’t know how genuine he is,” she said. “There shouldn’t be a problem in trying to ally with you. It must be because of the talent you disyed in the grotto. But if we really receive anything, how do we split it?”
Qian Yang only had five people but they were all at the pinnacle of the Dharma ne. Qian Yang, especially, had the noble fate which could greatly increasebat ability. The abilities of the two sides were totally unequal. At that time, it wouldn’t be up to Ye Futian to decide.
“I feel like he’s just tricking us step by step,” Yu Sheng said, furrowing his brows.
“But we still came, despite knowing there may be problems,” Ye Futian said, chuckling. “Since we came, we’ll do it. Even without Qian Yang, we’ll still be up against others if we charge into the relic. From the looks of things, we aren’t the only group here.”
“Oh.” Yu Sheng nodded and didn’t say anything else. They woulde to the Lon Relic sooner orter.
In the following days, Lon pce was filled with activity but Ye Futian’s group just stayed inside to cultivate. They didn’t even know what Qian Yang’s group was doing. Finally, Yue Linglong came to Ye Futian’s pavilion and found him.
“Get ready, Ancient Lon prepared a feast for everyone. The Virgin of the country will be there too,” Yue Linglong said with a smile.
“The Virgin of Ancient Lon?” Ye Futian nced at her. “Why not the princess?”
“Didn’t your servant tell you? Ancient Lon doesn’t have a princess, only a Virgin. Young Master Qian is waiting outside. Hurry up.” Yue Linglong left, smiling.
Ye Futian didn’t think too much. He called his group and left the pavilion to see Qian Yang’s group there already.
“Let’s go,” Qian Yang said, smiling. They started towards somewhere. They arrived at the steps before a pce. The feast was already prepared and many people were there. The atmosphere was extraordinary. They’d alle from different ces.
Qian Yang found a seat and sat down. Ye Futian’s group all sat down in the area. Here, it seemed that the people of each force sat in one area. There were many groups. When they sat down, many people looked over, sizing them up. At that time, a group strode over from the pce and came to the top of the steps. Everyone’s eyes were instantly attracted.
Lon Xue, the Virgin of Ancient Lon, was as rumored. Her long hair was like snow, shining with silver light, and spilled down her shoulders. She was ethereal and holy and her aura was like frost. She seemed like a fairy. Her eyes shimmered with silver light. They were unordinary and were breathtakingly beautiful.
“What, you can’t move your eyes away?” Lin Yueyao smiled as she looked at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian looked away and smiled at her. “Someone beat you again. Are you unhappy?”
“Is she as pretty as your girlfriend?” Lin Yueyao asked, chuckling.
“Nope,” Ye Futian replied. “She’s too cold and nowhere near Jieyu.”
“Is a cold beauty with a different temperament bad?” Lin Yueyao smiled subtly. They spoke very quietly and the steps were far away. Their subject couldn’t hear.
“I’m not like that,” Ye Futian said seriously.
Lin Yueyao gave him a look. She didn’t know if he was telling the truth or not.
Many people present were attracted by Lon Xue. Actually, Lin Yueyao was extremely pretty too. Her features were equal to Lon Xue but thetter’s temperament was too extraordinary.
A young man stood beside Lon Xue. His eyes were extremely sharp as he scanned everyone and said, “You all have traveled far, thus the Virgin personally prepared this weing banquet. In addition, there are some words that must be said about the Lon Relic.”
Everyone listened quietly. The young man continued, “You are not from Ancient Lon but we invited you. Naturally, we wish to use the abilities of talents from all over. Everyone present has an extraordinary identity so there will not be another test. You all can enter the relic with the talents of Ancient Lon.
“However, the Lon Relic belongs to our country. Many of the rare items belong to our country. Therefore, if you receive anything in the relic, you may take the ritual implements. As for anything special, if Ancient Lon requires it, we will exchange it with an item of equal value. If you agree, you may enter. If not, please leave at your own discretion. We will not force you.”
When Ye Futian heard this, his eyes shed. Ancient Lon seemed to really want the items in the Lon Relic and even invited foreigners to enter the relic. What exactly was in it?
He was excited now. ording to Qian Yang, the ritual implements of the Lon Relic contained noble fate. It would be difficult for any country in the Hundred Lands to produce ritual implements of this level.
The people were still quiet. They knew about this already.
“If you do not speak, I’ll take it as acquiescence. As for the dangers in the relic, I’m sure you all have thought about it. I will not waste any more time,” the youth said. “Let us begin the banquet.”
Everyone’s expressions flickered. They all had different thoughts but still looked at Lon Xue. Just then, she stood up and faced them all. “Please eat your fill. I have other matters to attend and must excuse myself.”
“Virgin, are you going to test the people of Ancient Lon?” someone asked her.
Lon Xue paused. She looked over and nodded.
“The banquet is unnecessary. Can I go along with you to see the talents of Lon?” the person asked with a smile.
Lon Xue gazed at the youth. She muttered something and left. The youth turned to everyone and asked, “Are you all interested in going?”
“It’s boring eating here. Why don’t we go observe?” someone else said.
“Alright. Those who wish to go may follow me. The others may dine or leave as you wish,” the youth said calmly. Many stood up instantly and walked over to him.
“Let’s go too,” Qian Yang said. He stood up and walked towards the youth.
However, one group left quietly. They didn’t follow the others and seemed to be disinterested.
Qian Yang knitted his brows at them. They seemed toe from there. If people from there were also interested in the Lon Relic, the consequences would be unimaginable!
