All beasts submit, and the peerless imperial princess is about to defy the heavens!

Feng Ning suddenly felt as if her toes were digging into the ground.

"Ye Yuan, it's not good to overdo it."

Ye Yuan laughed and released the person, "You really have no feelings at all."

Feng Ning rolled her eyes. "We haven't known each other for very long, so where did all this sincerity come from? Even if I'm with you, it's just because I'm bewitched by your looks."

Ye Yuan turned his head, his eyes blinking as he looked at her. "Being able to bewitch you with my looks is also one of my skills."

Without waiting for her reply, he took her hand and started walking forward.

Feng Ning did not refute, and followed his lead.

"How did you get here?" Feng Ning asked.

"I came here to look into some things, but I didn't expect to run into you here. What brings you here too?"

"I joined the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and I'm here with the sect's disciples to participate in the Deer Hunt Tournament."

Ye Yuan asked in surprise, "Are you participating too?"

Feng Ning proudly raised her chin, "I'm already a sixth-level array master, of course I can participate."

"You've made good progress." Ye Yuan praised without reservation.

Feng Ning accepted all his praise without question.

The two walked and talked, and as they walked, Feng Ning suddenly stopped and looked at a tattered scroll on the side.

She glanced at another item without making a sound and asked, "How much is this little sword?"

The vendor next to him replied with a smile, "Not expensive at all, just one hundred high-grade spirit stones."

Feng Ning was speechless. "Do I look like an idiot to you?"

The vendor replied with a smile, "Young lady, you are beautiful and exceptionally talented. How could you be a fool? To tell you the truth, I obtained this item from a secret realm of demonic beasts. It may look unremarkable, but ordinary people cannot form a contract with it."

Feng Ning smiled, "So you mean this thing can't be contracted and can't be used? Then why are you selling it for such a high price?"

The vendor was taken aback, not expecting her to react so quickly.

He said with a pained expression, "Then it's ninety yuan, no less."

Feng Ning still smiled at him, and he gritted his teeth, "Eighty! One price."

Feng Ning lowered her eyes, "Ten high-grade spirit stones."

The street vendor was almost in tears, saying, "You're being too harsh with this repayment!"

Feng Ning smiled and said, "How about this, I'll buy a few more items, and you can give me a discount?"

The vendor looked distressed. "With your bargaining skills, if I order a few more items, I'll go bankrupt."

Feng Ning shrugged and continued browsing the stall. "You don't have many good items here. It looks like you just picked them up randomly from a secret realm."

The street vendor was feeling guilty.

Wasn't he just picking it up from the corners? As soon as he entered the secret realm, he sensed something was off, so he grabbed a few things from the entrance and ran away.

But since he came from a secret realm, the price of this item has increased.

Feng Ning didn't say much more, "I'll take all these things from you, one hundred high-grade spirit stones, how about that?"

An excited glint flashed in the vendor's eyes. All of this stuff cost no more than fifty high-grade spirit stones, double the price, which he was quite satisfied with.

But he quickly suppressed his anger, saying, "It's still a bit too little."

Feng Ning chuckled, "If you don't want to sell it, that's fine. I just thought this little sword was pretty, it's not like I absolutely have to have it."

Upon hearing her say that, the vendor hurriedly packed up all the items and tried to stuff them into her hands.

"No way, you just said you wanted both, how can you go back on your word like that? One hundred yuan it is."

Feng Ning nodded, and just as she was about to put the item into her spatial storage, she pointed to the tattered scroll and asked, "This thing doesn't look complete. Where are the others?"

The vendors' smiles became more genuine as they made their money.

"When I found it, it was like this. It looks like it's tens of thousands of years old. I guess it's gone forever. I don't know what use it is, so I just put it all together."

Feng Ning didn't ask any more questions. "Alright, it's a pair anyway."

Then he put everything into his spatial storage, settled the spirit stones, and left.

The two looked around again, but found nothing of interest, so they left.

After returning to the place they had just entered, Feng Ning asked, "Is this also a black market?"

Ye Yuan nodded.

"I noticed you didn't buy anything earlier, so you probably didn't come here to buy anything, right?"

He smiled and said, "I came here looking for someone, but I couldn't find them."

Feng Ning didn't ask any more questions. "So where are you going now? Are you still looking for someone?"

Ye Yuan shook his head. "Let's not look for it for now. I'll accompany you to the Deer Chase Tournament first."

"Where have you been all this time? Have you joined a sect? Will you participate in this Tournament of Conquest?"

Ye Yuan shook his head. "I'm just here for the fun of it. I'm not participating."

"Alright then, do you want to come back to the Myriad Swords Sect with me?"

Ye Yuan agreed, and the two returned to the Myriad Swords Sect together.

When we went back, most of the people had already returned.

Not long after they returned, Da Niu and Da Li also came back and went straight to her room.

As soon as they entered, they saw a man sitting in the room.

The two were startled, thinking they had gone to the wrong place, but then they realized that this was the place of the Array Academy, and it was their junior sister's room.

The two men immediately glared at him angrily.

Da Niu was already preparing to make his move. "Who are you? What are you doing in Junior Sister's room?"

Dali was also very anxious, "Where is Junior Sister? Where did you take her?"

Ye Yuan put down his teacup and pointed to the inner room, "Cultivate in there."

The two looked at him suspiciously. Dali gave Da Niu a wink, and Da Niu walked into the inner room.

When I went in, I saw her engrossed in studying the formation, seemingly oblivious to everything else.

She breathed a sigh of relief, came out of the inner room, and nodded to Dali.

The two remained wary, staring intently at him. "Who are you?"

Ye Yuan didn't answer. The two wanted to ask again, but then another figure rushed in from outside, running in like a whirlwind.

"Junior Sister, I brought you something good!"

As soon as he rushed in, he was stunned. What was going on with this three-way standoff?

Qin Ya was confused and quietly moved closer to Da Niu. "What's going on? Where's Junior Sister? What are you doing in her room?"

Da Niu pointed to the inner room, "He's cultivating inside. There was a man sitting here when we arrived."

Qin Ya turned to look at Ye Yuan seriously, and was immediately stunned, "You...you...you! You're alive?"

Ye Yuan's expression remained unchanged, but Dali and Da Niu looked at her in surprise.

Da Niu nudged her. "You know him?"

Qin Ya was unaware of what was happening until she realized what was going on, when she felt a powerful pressure.
