At dusk, the originally bustling market became quiet at the same time, with only the occasional sounds of people packing up stalls. The market was empty before the sun set.
Meeting Ye Wanqing's gaze, Jiang Xu shook his head, "Master, I haven't discovered anything."
Ye Wanqing nodded and remained silent.
"Let's go, this secret force is definitely not as quiet as we imagined." Thinking of what she heard at the market today, the corners of her lips gradually curled up, and she lowered her eyes, making it difficult for Jiang Xu to see the look in her eyes.
"Perhaps, a change in the pattern of secret forces will soon come."
At the same time, various forces gathered at the council tower dozens of kilometers away from Yaojin Divine Palace.
"Why are you gathering again for no reason? Our various factions have always kept to themselves. According to the rules passed down, we should hold a meeting every ten years. How come you're gathering again after only three years?"
"The Patriarch of the Zhang family is right. If we gather for meetings more frequently, then what is the purpose of our seclusion? It would be better to come out into the world again."
Ten representatives from secretive families from different fields were sitting there, each with different ideas about this sudden meeting.
Listening to the disturbance at the table, Yue Zhiwei, the young master of the Yue family who was sitting on the right, slightly frowned his eyebrows, which were as dark as distant mountains, and his delicate eyes drooped, revealing his unconcealable irritation.
"Alright, stop arguing. I'm not going to bother with you anymore."
Having said that, Yue Zhiwei stood up and no longer glanced at the representatives present, but just as she walked out the door, she happened to meet the Hua family.
"Why did Master Yue leave first? We haven't even discussed the matter yet."
Looking at the man staring at her with shifty eyes, Yue Zhiwei crossed her arms over her chest, her beautiful eyes filled with affection becoming tinged with annoyance. "Hua Wuxing, if you keep looking at me with such disgusting eyes, watch out for your eyes."
Hua Wuxing was not angry at being publicly humiliated by Yue Zhiwei. He opened his folding fan and smiled, "Why get angry? I believe that today's meeting is of interest not only to the Yue family, but to everyone present."
As he spoke, Hua Wuxing looked around and noticed everyone's thoughtful eyes. The corners of his lips curled up and he walked to his main seat.
Seeing Hua Wuxing acting so hypocritically, Yue Zhiwei felt a surge of anger for some reason. Just as she was about to retort him, Wen Yuanzhou stepped out to ease the atmosphere and said, "Young Master Yue, why don't you listen to Young Master Hua's detailed procedures for the meeting first?"
Yu Junlin on the side lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something, no one knew what he was thinking about.
Noticing everyone's gazes, Hua Wuxing raised the corners of his lips, with a gleam in his eyes.
"I know everyone is unhappy with my Hua family's collection of Yaojin Shenque ore. Of course, there's nothing we can do about it. After all, according to the agreement, the area under the jurisdiction of Yaojin Shenque belongs to the leading faction."
"But it doesn't matter. In order to take into account the many secret forces and for our better development, my Hua family is willing to divide the Yaojin Shenque territory based on the winners and losers in the arena. What do you think? Everyone."
The eyes of the heads of several forces became brighter and brighter. You know, they have been coveting the Feng Shui treasure land of Yaojin Shenque for a long time.
After all, it was a place that once belonged to an excellent weapon-refining family with countless mineral resources. However, according to the rules of the power, whenever a power declined, it would be occupied by the first power.
Although they have had this idea in mind for a long time, they dared not bring it up openly and could only complain about it behind their backs.
"Really? If that's the case, I agree on behalf of the Zhang family."
"I agree on behalf of the Wang family."
After receiving affirmative responses from everyone, Hua Wuxing raised his eyebrows and looked at the Yu family, Wen family, and Yue family who had not spoken.
"So what are your thoughts?"
Although Wen Yuanzhou did not understand the Hua family's intentions, he knew Hua Wuxing's character. Only those old stubborn people who were occupied by desires could not see through the reasons behind this. Or, they had clearly seen through it, but pretended to be ignorant because of the interests behind it.
"If everyone agrees, I have no objection."
Yue Zhiwei glanced at Hua Wuxing, hiding the coldness in her eyes. "Since the Hua family is so generous, then what objections does my Yue family have? With a Feng Shui treasure land like Yaojin Shenque, naturally everyone wants a piece of the pie."
"What about you, Young Master Yu? By the way, I heard your father suddenly fell into a coma some time ago. I wonder if he is awake now?"
Hua Wuxing looked worried, but his expression was a little weird.
As soon as these words were spoken, representatives from all major forces looked at Yu Junlin, and there was a strange look in everyone's eyes.
Yu Junlin's eyes dimmed slightly. "Young Master Hua, where did you hear this rumor? It's sheer nonsense. My father suddenly felt the spiritual cultivation of the peak of the Divine Realm a few days ago, so he is now in seclusion."
"As for what Young Master Hua just said about winning or losing in the competition, my Yu family has no objection, but we do not intend to participate."
"Oh, really?" Hua Wuxing's expression darkened. "The Yu family isn't participating. Could it be that something really happened within the Yu family?"
In an instant, everyone's eyes became strange again.
"Young Master Hua, you are too kind. My Yu family focuses on physical cultivation and spiritual practice. We are not interested in ore for refining weapons, so there is no need to spend a lot of time and energy preparing this."
Yu Junlin faced it calmly, with no mistake on his face.
long silence.
Hua Wuxing chuckled lightly, his devilish eyes showing no concern. "In that case, the Yu family won't participate."
