"Of course, I won't let Brother Pei suffer a loss."

Waving his hand, Jiao Yang replied with a smile, "I wonder what Brother Pei is looking for?"

"We can discuss that in private. Don't worry, for Brother Ye's sake, I won't ask for too much." Pei Haoran's eyes flickered as he didn't agree on the spot, merely laughed it off and temporarily brushed it aside.

"Alright then!"

Nodding, Jiao Yang wasn't impatient. As long as the other party was willing to make a move, the rest was just a matter of negotiation, so there was no need to rush.

"May I ask, Mr. Jiao Yang, why are you so eager to get the Other Shore Flower?"

A thought crossed Wang Junze's mind, and he looked at Jiao Yang and asked, "Mr. Jiao Yang, you don't seem like someone who has taken many Blood Spirit Pills."

"Well…"

Jiao Yang glanced at Pei Haoran, hesitant to speak.

"Brother Pei, could you please go to the Spring Flower Autumn Moon Building and book a private room? Mr. Jiao Yang and I will be there soon, and we shall drink to our heart's content today."

Looking at Pei Haoran, Wang Junze chuckled lightly.

"Sure, I'll host today. Brother Ye, don't fight me for it." Pei Haoran clearly understood that Wang Junze had something to say to Jiao Yang alone, and happily agreed.

After Pei Haoran left, Jiao Yang slowly began to explain, "My lord granted me a Blood Spirit Pill earlier, to help me break through to the Divine Travel Realm, and... it's related to what I mentioned to you before."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Junze's heart jolted.

The only thing Jiao Yang had mentioned to him was the Li Shang Sword Venerable Mansion.

In other words, Dugu Feng was indeed planning to open the Li Shang Sword Venerable Mansion and had agreed to let Jiao Yang accompany him?

"My lord has agreed?"

"Yes!"

Clearly, Gudu Feng had already discussed this with Jiao Yang, so Jiao Yang did not hide it, explaining directly, "Not only me, but Brother Ye is also likely to have the chance to go along."

"However, this journey is extremely dangerous. My lord's intention is for us to improve our strength as much as possible before setting off…" Spreading his hands, Jiao Yang said helplessly, "You know as well, my cultivation has been stuck at the Peak of Void Shattering for a long time, and to make a breakthrough, I can only hope for assistance from the Blood Spirit Pill and the Other Shore Flower."

"I understand!"

Nodding, Wang Junze softly replied, "Don't worry, regarding the Other Shore Flower, I'll talk to Brother Pei for you. But… I ask Mr. Jiao Yang to put in a good word for me with our lord as well."

"Naturally!"

Jiao Yang immediately agreed, "My lord is fair in rewards and punishments. Since Brother Ye brought back the Other Shore Flower, you've made a great contribution, and my lord will not treat you unfairly."

After discussing the matter, Wang Junze immediately got up with Jiao Yang and headed towards the Spring Flower Autumn Moon Building.

The night passed in silence!

In the following days, Wang Junze found himself leisurely free for once.

.....

However, simultaneously, a bloody storm was quietly erupting in the Nether Sea.

Just as Wang Junze had guessed, after escaping from the Dragon Palace, the Dragon Turtle did not hide away to lick its wounds but rather swept across the Nether Sea in a frenzied manner.

Whether they were demon beasts or humans lingering in the Nether Sea, as long as they encountered the Dragon Turtle, they were swallowed directly.

In just a few days, the entire Nether Sea became a place of fear and alarm, making everyone uneasy.

The returning demon cultivators passed the news back, causing a stir in the entire Netherworld City.

One must know, the Nether Sea is not without powerful demons, and there's even a legend of a Saint Realm Demon King existing, but never has there been a demon so ferocious, who killed indiscriminately without reason.

This matter has been reported to the Netherworld Mansion, but due to Gudu Feng's seclusion for cultivation, a decision has yet to be made.

However, there are rumors that Miss Fang intends to personally enter the Nether Sea to slay the Dragon Turtle.

To this, Wang Junze sneered.

Even if the Dragon Turtle was heavily injured, it was still a Saint Realm Demon King. Even if it fell from its realm, it was not something that those below Entering the Path could contend with. That Miss Fang was only in the Divine Travel Realm. If they really met the Dragon Turtle, who knows who would kill whom!

Remember, back then, Wang Junze joined forces with the Maiden of the Sea and Yang Hong, yet they couldn't deal with the Dragon Turtle, even when it was most severely injured. Missing that chance, trying to kill the Dragon Turtle would be as hard as reaching the heavens.

Moreover, would Miss Fang really risk herself for others?

Most likely, it's all talk for the sake of reputation.

This incident, however, gave Wang Junze a hint. If the Dragon Turtle was merciless even to others, what would happen if it encountered him, it would surely go insane.

Yet, after Gudu Feng makes a breakthrough, if there's an actual move to enter the Nether Sea, it might as well be a case of using one to kill the other.

Whether Gudu Feng kills the Dragon Turtle or the Dragon Turtle eats Gudu Feng, it would be good news for Wang Junze. However, this matter needs careful planning.

Soon, the Netherworld Auction reopened.

Pei Haoran had placed all the treasures obtained from the Dragon Palace onto the auction at the Netherworld Auction, and on the other hand, the Master of All Things also put that single Other Shore Flower in this auction.

This made Wang Junze curious—is it possible that the Master of All Things secretly works for the Netherworld Auction?

However, this time Wang Junze did not go to the Netherworld Auction to join the excitement.

"Hahaha, Brother Ye, are you there?"

Wang Junze was in the mansion guiding Peng Ru in cultivation when he heard a burst of laughter. The next moment, he saw Jiao Yang striding in with confidence.

At a glance, Wang Junze felt Jiao Yang had successfully broken through to the Divine Travel Realm.

"Congratulations, Mr. Jiao Yang!"

With a slight clasp of his fists, Wang Junze smiled.

Upon seeing Jiao Yang, a hint of hatred flashed in Peng Ru's eyes but quickly disappeared. She bowed to Wang Junze and turned back to the courtyard.

Jiao Yang naturally didn't care about Peng Ru's reaction, in his eyes, she was nothing but a servant girl.

"Haha, it was pure luck! I have to thank Brother Ye. If you hadn't spoken up and had Brother Pei sell me the Other Shore Flower, I wouldn't have been able to break through so quickly." Laughing, Jiao Yang took a seat at the stone table next to Wang Junze and continued, "I heard that at this Netherworld Auction, that single Other Shore Flower sold for an astronomical price!"

"Rarity makes it precious!"

Wang Junze had heard about it too. That single Other Shore Flower had sold for a sky-high price of ten million Spirit Stones, and it wasn't even settled with Spirit Stones but with top-grade elixirs of equivalent value. It was said that Miss Fang was the one who bought that Other Shore Flower.

The Master of All Things had already sent the message that in the next few days, the elixirs would be delivered to Wang Junze.

If Wang Junze hadn't monopolized the Other Shore Flower this time, it definitely couldn't have fetched such a high price.

"I'm indebted to you, brother. I only just broke through and came to see you." Giving Wang Junze a wink, Jiao Yang lowered his voice and said, "This time I'm here to return the favor. Haven't you always had your eye on Ji Liuyun? While I can't give you the person, taking you to have some fun is something I can manage."
