C499 He Came to the Door

After her, Yuan Ze and Pei Yun immediately followed, and the other disciples also followed.

After a while, the light disappeared, and the plaza became calm again.

Dean Xiao looked at the illusion-like statue and said in a dignified voice, “Dear disciples, the trial has come to an end. Let’s go.”

The next time would be when the teleportation array in the trial grounds would be activated.

If the disciples of their academy hadn’t returned by then, then they might really be annihilated.

Dean Xiao felt lonely for no reason. He knew better than anyone else that Yun Zhantian was just lucky, and he wouldn’t appear every time.

When he sent them off just now, he said those words to make the disciples who were participating in the trial to have fighting spirit and not give up just because they didn’t want to fight.

There was one thing he didn’t lie to them.

The trial grounds was indeed an ancient battlefield, and there were countless secret realms and inheritances hidden inside.

If they were lucky enough to get one or two inheritances and secret realms inside, although they wouldn’t be harmed, some of the disciples would be able to keep their lives.

I hope they are lucky.

Dean Xiao murmured in his heart, and then he turned around and left.

Ye Jinglan, Qin Gu, and the other elders also followed him.

After the people on the stage had left, the disciples went back to watch the statues that they couldn’t get familiar with. Some of the disciples curiously reached out to touch Yun Zhantian’s statue.

However, no matter how hard they tried, no matter where they tried, the statue remained silent and didn’t even react.

The disciples left in disappointment.

Why could Deputy Qin open the teleportation array, but they couldn’t?

Could it be that the statue could recognize people?

East Black Mountain, Phoenix Palace Guild.

Long Zixuan sat in the guest area with a cup of tea in his hand. His eyelids were slightly lowered and his expression was gloomy. No one knew what he was thinking.

A series of footsteps sounded. Ye Qian walked in with a long green robe.

Seeing the noble and domineering man, he stopped and subconsciously clenched his hands behind his back.

Two days ago, Mr. Zhuge said that the boss of the Dragon Chamber of Commerce wanted to see him. He purposely left him alone for two days, but he didn’t expect that the boss of the Dragon Chamber of Commerce would be Lord Long of the Martial Saint Bureau.

The Palace Lord… was once his master.

Well, even if he was the boss of the Dragon Chamber of Commerce, he was still the leader of the Martial Saint Bureau. He didn’t need to put the Phoenix Palace in his eyes. Why did he want to see him?

Long Zixuan had already noticed when he came in. He raised his eyelids and looked at Ye Qian calmly. However, his eyes were filled with surging emotions.

The leader of the Phoenix Palace Guild was actually a kid.

And he remembered him.

Back in the Hao Yuan Academy, this kid, the kid from the Marquis of the Southern Town, and another kid were very close to Feather.

At that time, he had asked Chi Yan to investigate these three people.

After he confirmed that they were just normal friends with Feather, he didn’t touch them. He didn’t expect that this kid would become the president of the Phoenix Palace.

This kid was really powerful. Two days ago, he just came back from the Ning Province and Uncle Zhuge told him to meet him.

He didn’t expect that this kid would dare to ignore him and wait for two days before arranging a time to meet him.

Originally, he wanted to arrest the person in charge of the Phoenix Palace, but after thinking about it, maybe it was related to Feather, so he waited patiently and didn’t let anyone do anything.

This kid better give him a satisfactory answer today, otherwise, he wouldn’t mind asking him to drink tea in the dungeon of the Master’s Palace.

Long Zixuan’s eyes were indifferent, and his body emitted the aura of a supreme expert. That aura was as fierce as a mountain, and it made Ye Qianqiu’s face turn pale.

He clenched his fists more and more tightly, and his bones turned white. Ye Qianqiu took a deep breath and walked toward Long Zixuan. The corner of his mouth curled up into a smile.

“I thought that the development of the Wolong Chamber of Commerce is so good. How could I not know that it is Master Long? I didn’t expect that you would be here. Please forgive me.”

The words were polite, but there was nothing wrong with it.

Ever since he took over the Phoenix Palace, Ye Qian had become more and more like a businessman. He was more cunning and experienced.

Long Zixuan played with the teacup in his hand and said blandly, “It doesn’t matter. President Ye, I don’t like to beat around the bush, so I’ll just say it directly.”

When he finished speaking, Ye Qian immediately had a bad feeling. This Lord Long really didn’t want to talk to him.

He just hoped that he wasn’t here to cause trouble.

Otherwise, the Phoenix Palace wouldn’t be able to handle this.

“That’s fine. Lord Long, you can say it directly.”

Ye Qian nodded. A faint smile appeared on his handsome face, and he looked humbled and polite.

Long Zixuan moved his throat and casually put the teacup on the mahogany table next to him. He looked at Ye Qian like a master looking at a servant.

His voice was cold and indifferent.

“I’ll ask you, what’s the relationship between the master of your Phoenix Palace and Yun Fengyu?”

Ye Qian’s heart suddenly thumped. Before every member of the Phoenix Palace joined the Phoenix Palace, including him, Lei Lie, Nan Sifan, and Yang Shaofeng, they all swore that they would never reveal anything about the master of the Phoenix Palace.

So how did Lord Long suspect the master of the Phoenix Palace?

Did he investigate it himself?

There was only one name in the records of the Palace Lord in the Phoenix Palace. How could he suspect the relationship between the Palace Lord and Junior Sister Yun?

Ye Qian’s thoughts were chaotic. He lowered his eyelids and started to think about what to say.

At this moment, the cold and indifferent voice sounded in his ears again, “I forgot to tell you. If you dare to lie to me, I will make you suffer.”

Ye Qian closed his eyes and said helplessly, “Sect Leader Long, please forgive me for not being able to answer your question.”

Long Zixuan’s eyebrows twitched and a ruthless look flashed across his eyes. He stood up from his chair and walked toward Ye Qian.

As he got closer, the oppressive aura became stronger and stronger. Ye Qian couldn’t bear it anymore and fell to his knees.

His chest felt like it had been hit by a hammer. The Qi and blood in his body started to flow backward. Ye Qian’s face turned pale and he felt like he couldn’t breathe.

Long Zixuan looked at the young man kneeling on one knee and said coldly, “Very good. You dare to talk to me like that. It seems like you don’t respect me.”

His voice was filled with danger. It seemed like he would explode in the next moment.

Ye Qian shook his head with difficulty and said with a trembling voice, “Sect Leader Long, please don’t be angry. I made a blood oath that I wouldn’t tell anyone about the Palace Lord.”

No matter what, he couldn’t afford to offend this man.

Among the cultivators in the Hao Yuan Empire, he was like an unreachable mountain that had left a strong shadow in their hearts.

No matter how these cultivators grew, or rather, how high they reached, they couldn’t get rid of the shadow he left behind.

After he finished speaking, the pressure from Long Zixuan instantly disappeared.

Long Zixuan’s eyes were dark and gloomy. He clenched his fists and looked at Ye Qian with a dangerous yet suppressed expression.

Since he had made a blood oath, he wouldn’t say anything even if he killed him. Was he really going to make this trip empty-handed?

Without the pressure from his aura, Ye Qian felt much better.

He raised his head and looked at Long Zixuan. His throat moved and he said, “Sect Master Long, if you still love your only disciple, then you definitely can’t touch the Phoenix Palace.”

Ye Qian didn’t say anything, so it didn’t go against the blood oath.

However, he expressed everything.

Long Zixuan was slightly stunned before he instantly understood. He squatted down and looked at Ye Qian. He said with a joyous tone, “So, Little Feather is really the master of the Phoenix Palace?”

Ye Qian’s expression didn’t change as he said calmly, “Sect Master Long, I didn’t say anything. You can decide whether I am the master of the Phoenix Palace or not.”

Long Zixuan got up from the ground in excitement. His hands were clenched together, and he didn’t know what to do.

Although he had thought that Feather might be the master of the Phoenix Palace, he had never been sure before he came here.

He didn’t expect it. He really didn’t expect it.

He had thought that he had kept Feather under his wings, but he didn’t expect that she would create such a big force behind his back.

How could his Feather be so great?

“I want to see your Palace Master, President Ye. Let me see her.”

After calming down, Long Zixuan couldn’t wait to see Feather. Although he knew that she would hate him and didn’t want to see him, he had to see her.

He could do anything to her, whether it was beatings, scoldings, or even killing her. He had no complaints.

As long as… he could see her.

He hadn’t seen her for more than a month. She was severely injured at that time. Now, she probably hadn’t fully recovered from her injuries.

He would do anything to cure her injuries.

Then, he would give her a present. He hoped that she would treat him lightly because of the present.

Ye Qian also got up from the ground. He put his hands behind his back and said gently, “General Long, our Palace Master won’t see anyone. I can’t help you. Please forgive me.”

From the beginning of the Phoenix Palace to now, countless people had come to see the Palace Lord, but she had never shown herself. He was the one who solved all of them.

As for Lord Long… He knew that the relationship between the Palace Lord and him was not normal. A few months ago, after the Palace Lord left the sect, he moved into the Lord’s Residence.
