Chapter 126: Mother and Son Token, Advancing into Hidden Dragon
In the bustling downtown area of Donglai City, there is a five-story tall large wine building, with people coming and going, crowded and noisy. In front of this famous "Pengju Building" wine building, there is a large screen wall, on which hangs a jade stone carving of the Tianbang Four Singles.
This leaderboard brought a large number of customers to Peng Jiu Lou, and many people liked to stay in front of it, watching the ranking changes at any time.
Some also say that every wine house with a shadow wall and a heavenly list is the property of Tianji Pavilion. It was these wine houses where all sorts of people gathered that brought Tianji Pavilion extremely timely information sources.
However, today's list is different from yesterday's peaceful day.
"Another newcomer has entered the Hidden Dragon Rankings!" someone shouted loudly, "Xu Yang, 999th place, fifteen years old this year... Good heavens, he's only at the late stage of a Mystic Master! With such a low cultivation level, how did he get on the rankings?"
Someone at the interface said: "It's possible that he has a combat power that defies the heavens and can cross ranks to fight with a mysterious boundary."
Some people even sneered, "Maybe he just got lucky and happened to defeat a master... I've seen many people like that, who knows, maybe tomorrow he'll be knocked off the rankings."
A pen holder on the second floor, a table by the window.
"Third Uncle, you must avenge Fifth Brother!" Cao An Kang, with a white cloth wrapped around his head, said with a nose full of snot and tears, "You also heard it, this Xu Yang, trampled on the face of my great Cao family, and climbed to the position of the Hidden Dragon List! Under his feet, that's the bones of my Fifth Brother!"
Across from Cao An Kang, a middle-aged man with a cold expression sat, his face stern as he said: "Revenge, how will you take it? Do you think that the Hai Yun Branch Division is so easy to get into?"
Cao Ankang's face still had tears: "Then, is it just going to end like this?"
"Of course not," the middle-aged man with a cold expression sneered, "You're in Ha Yun Shan, keep a close eye on Xu Yang for me! As soon as he comes out, notify me immediately! I want to take this little bastard's life with my own hands and offer it as a sacrifice to Ah Rong's heroic spirit!"
Cao Ankang's face was excited, and he said somewhat nervously: "Third Uncle, that Xu Yang's combat strength is indeed against the heavens. He can cross ranks to kill a Xuan Shi master, you must be careful."
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "Hong'er broke through the Xuan Shi not long ago, he doesn't understand the true power of the Xuan Shi level! I am already at the peak of Xuan Shi, with half a foot into the realm of Xuan Zong, could I still be afraid of a Xuan Shi? Don't joke!"
The middle-aged man took out two talismans, one large and one small, and continued: "This is the [Mother-Child Talisman]. You take the child talisman now and go back to Mount Haiyun. Keep a close eye on Xu Yang! If he comes down from the mountain and leaves the range of Mount Haiyun, immediately tear up the child talisman, and this mother talisman will have some sensation. I will go and take his life."
Cao An Kang excitedly received the small talisman and prepared to put it into his storage ring.
Suddenly, Cao Ankang's finger movements froze, he stared blankly and looked out the window.
"What's wrong?" The middle-aged man also looked out of the window, "Is something special happening?"
"Third Uncle," Cao An Kang stuttered, "no need to stare... That Xu Yang is now in Donglai City, in front of the shadow wall of Pengju Building."
The middle-aged man was both surprised and delighted, lowering his voice to say: "Don't make a sound for now! Donglai City is the imperial capital, with strict martial law, no one is allowed to kill at will! You point out Xuyang to me, I'll quietly take care of him, and find an opportunity to take his life!"
Xu Yang arrived in front of the shadow wall and saw his own name on the high-ranking list at a glance.
"The eyes and ears of Tianji Pavilion are truly everywhere... Matters hundreds of miles away can be reported in just one night," Xuyang sighed quietly, and then he saw Lei Zhongxuan at the bottom of the Zongshi rankings.
"Is Uncle Lei the one who killed a Xuanzong in Giant Source City just yesterday, and now there's an update on the Donglai City leaderboard?" Xu Yang was incredulous, he pulled someone over and asked, "Excuse me, when did the newly-ranked Lei Zong appear on the Master Ranking List?"
"That guy sneered: 'You're really out of touch with the news, Lei Zong was already on the list yesterday at noon, it's been a whole day.'"
Xu Yang calculated the time and found that Li Zhongxuan killed Yin Renfeng at exactly noon yesterday.
"Could it be that there's some kind of connection between these rankings, allowing them to share information?" This thought flashed through Xu Yang's mind and was gone in an instant. He didn't think much of it, only sighing at the mysteriousness and power of Tianji Pavilion.
Gaining fame on the Hidden Dragon Ranking may not be a good thing for Xu Yang. It can be imagined that from now on, challenges will come one after another. Those young men who possess Xuan Master strength but have no chance to get on the ranking will absolutely not mind stepping on Xu Yang's corpse and entering the Heavenly Ranking, instantly becoming famous.
But Xu Yang didn't worry about these things, that was a weakling's idea. He asked for directions several times and finally arrived at a market in Donglai City.
This bazaar is similar to the Free Street of Lin Yuan City, with two rows of simple tents set up along the street, and stone pedestals inside the tents for displaying goods.
The management of this street is in the hands of the Yuan family from Donglai City, and the strength of this family can be compared to that of the Peng family of Giant Source. There are also two Xuanjun-level figures sitting in town.
"After all, Lin Yuan City is too small. Think about it, on Freedom Street, most of them are just ordinary medicines and beast meat, whereas the market in Donglai City not only has a wide variety of goods, covering categories such as mystic stones, martial arts techniques, mystic instruments, medicinal materials, etc., but also has many high-quality products." Xu Yang walked along, pondering silently.
Xu Yang saw a bottle of【Ji Xuan Liquid】, which was extracted from the night dew of the snake spittle flower, and was an auxiliary medicine for refining four-grade elixirs. He casually asked about the price, and it turned out to be ten Winged Tiger coins, leaving him speechless.
This price is more than double that of Linwan City, it's simply extortionate.
Xu Yang shook his head, his attention still focused on the Water Extreme Treasure.
Xu Yang's gaze stopped at a stall nearby.
This stall sells antiques, with rows of objects that exude an ancient aura.
"This young master, good eyesight!" The stall owner was a stout, dark-skinned man in his thirties, with a passionate introduction, "This is an inlaid gold jade pendant, wearing it on the body to protect life and drive out evil spirits, it's an item from thousands of years ago, absolutely valuable! This copper piece is even more extraordinary, it's a talisman drawn by a Xuan Huang-level figure, although slightly damaged, but as long as you repair it a bit, you can get a Xuan Huang talisman! Take a look at this white jade paperweight..."
Xu Yang interrupted him and pointed at a small, plump, pale yellow clay doll, saying: "How much for this little mud doll?"
The stall owner exclaimed: "Young master, you can't talk nonsense! This is a treasure, not some mud doll... This is, this is..." He racked his brains, trying to give the mud doll a prestigious origin.
Xu Yang shook his head: "Don't bother anymore, I just thought the mud doll was cute and asked about the price. Since you're not sincere about selling it, forget it."
