Covering the Sky: I, Wang Teng, truly lack the bearing of an emperor.

Chapter 269 Long Time No See, Daoist Duan
Within that watermelon-sized source of divine energy, there was a small, exceptionally dazzling object that caught the eye.

It was a bright red thing, like a ball of fire, changing shape and flowing with Daoist rhyme, as if it were a divine fire from the deepest part of the Fire Domain, capable of burning everything in the world!

But upon closer inspection, it wasn't fire, but rather a cluster of brilliant, bright red blood!
Fragments of the Great Dao flowed within, and the void seemed to be collapsing at all times, as if it could not bear this mass of blood, as if this mass of blood was carrying a Great Dao!
Because it was sealed within the divine source, even after countless years, this mass of blood remained full of vitality and had not dried up.

"The essence and blood of ancient sages!"

In the crowd, some old man suddenly shouted something.

In an instant, all the old men around rushed over.

Some of the old men looked thin and frail, their skin barely covering their bones, but when they launched their charge, they were like humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex, pushing through the crowd and rushing in.

"You little bandit! I want this thing. Not counting the outer layer of divine source, I'll offer 500,000 jin of source!"

"I'm asking for 800,000!"

"one million!"

"Give me some face, everyone..." someone started to say, but before they could finish, they were interrupted by someone else.

"Who are you? What face do you have?" A senior elder didn't even reply and spoke directly.

"I am Tu Fei's grandfather, Tu Tian!" Tu Tian was so angry that his nose was crooked.

He was, after all, Tu Fei's grandfather, and ranked among the Thirteen Great Bandits of the Northern Region. Even when he openly visited a noble family in the Holy Land, he was greeted by a special person. But now, someone actually said that he had no face at all!

"Hahaha, it's Brother Tu Tian! I was wondering why that voice sounded so familiar. Please come in, please come in! Your grandson has really found something amazing. If this were sold, it would definitely be worth a million catties of Origin!"

The elder who had just spoken immediately put on a smile and said warmly.

"Heh, it's too late to say nice things now!" Tu Tian said with a dark face.

"It's late, so what? It's not like we're afraid of anyone. How could we, the dignified Dao Yi Holy Land, be afraid of a bandit like you?" the elder said.

“I remember you’re from the Purple Mansion Holy Land, aren’t you?” someone nearby said.

“When you’re out in the world, you give yourself your identity. If I say I’m from the Dao Yi Holy Land, then I am from the Dao Yi Holy Land,” the Supreme Elder said matter-of-factly.

Another old-fashioned man watched the whole scene with a dark expression.

“My Purple Mansion Holy Land is not convinced. So what if it’s just Tu Tian? My Purple Mansion Holy Land can easily suppress anyone it sends out!” The Supreme Elder of Dao Yi Holy Land immediately spoke up.

The two elders stared at each other across the distance, their eyes blazing with tension. They spoke again, neither willing to back down this time.

"Our Purple Mansion Holy Land is full of powerful experts. Let alone Tu Tian, ​​even if the Thirteen Great Bandits attacked together, we could easily wipe them out!"

"Our Daoist Holy Land has invincible experts. We don't take the Thirteen Bandits seriously. Unless they travel together, they are nothing more than rats in the street in our eyes!"

"Our Purple Mansion Holy Land..."

"Our Dao Yi Holy Land..."

"Our Holy Lord of the Purple Mansion Holy Land is the illegitimate son of the previous Holy Lord!"

"Our Holy Lord of the Dao Yi Holy Land has a fondness for married women!"

Seeing that the two Supreme Elders were going too far, the others were stunned. They immediately sent people to contact other powerful figures from the Purple Mansion Holy Land and the Dao Yi Holy Land.

Soon, the Holy Lord of the Purple Mansion Holy Land arrived in person. He was taken aback upon arrival, exclaiming, "This isn't someone from our Purple Mansion Holy Land!"

The Holy Lord of Dao Yi Holy Land was also dumbfounded, "This person isn't from our Dao Yi Holy Land either!"

A powerful figure in the crowd intervened, using the Bone-Illuminating Technique to reveal the true appearances of the two individuals.

Within the arcane light, it became clear that the two people who had just been arguing so fiercely were not their original forms.

Their original appearance was quite representative; one of them was short and stout, wearing a Taoist robe, while the other was tall and thin, with a shaved head, and looked like a monk.

"Those immoral Taoist priests and unscrupulous monks! They've actually come!" someone exclaimed, their voice filled with excitement.

These two individuals have always been highly sought after in the Northern Region. Although the three great holy lands and aristocratic families have cancelled the bounty on Ye Fan, they have not cancelled the bounties on these two unscrupulous individuals.

As time went on, they committed more and more crimes, and their bounties increased!
"Once we capture those two, we won't have to worry about cultivation resources anymore!" someone exclaimed excitedly.

"Fellow Daoist, calm down! Fighting is not allowed in the Holy City, and this is the Yaochi Grand Ceremony. If you attack me, are you disrespecting the Holy Yaochi?"

Seeing that both Holy Lords were eager to try, Duan De immediately spoke up.

As soon as he finished speaking, the others hesitated for a moment.

But they quickly came up with a solution.

Dozens of people spontaneously formed a circle, surrounding Duan De and Wu Liang in the very center, with dozens of pairs of eyes watching them constantly. In this way, Wu Liang and the others would have no chance to escape!
"These two scoundrels actually dared to come!" Ji Ziyue wrinkled her nose and said with dissatisfaction.

"Maybe they're not afraid of death," Yao Xi chuckled.

"Master Duan, it's been a long time." Ji Haoyue, the divine body of the Ji family, walked over and her gaze fell on Duan De.

"I've long heard of the Ji family's divine physique, and it truly lives up to the rumors—you are indeed as heroic and dashing as they say! The future emperor is you!" Duan De forced a smile and said.

"Master Duan, I've long admired your name. It's a pleasure to meet you." Jiang Yifei also came over.

"Hmph." A soft snort rang out, and the Holy Son of Yaoguang, who carried one hundred and eight divine rings on his back, also walked over.

"Hahahaha, Holy Son's successors, I've heard so much about you..." Duan De revealed a smile that was more like a grimace.

He didn't expect that he would be recognized so soon after he made his appearance, and that all the young powerhouses would gather around him.

"The Yaochi Grand Ceremony is still some time away, and we will keep a close eye on Master Duan," the refined Jiang Yifei said.

Although the Jiang family's main base is in the northern region of the Eastern Wilderness, some of the Jiang family's powerful members are still stationed in the southern region of the Eastern Wilderness, where there are also some of the Jiang family's tombs.

Back then, Duan De went straight there!
It can be said that the Jiang family chased Duan De from the Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness to the Northern Region of the Eastern Wilderness. Now that they finally have the opportunity to settle accounts with Duan De, they certainly won't miss this opportunity.

"Hahahaha..." Duan De could barely laugh anymore.

On the other side, Tu Fei was also arguing with someone.

"What do you mean by this? I just asked you to compliment my brother on his looks, and you'd rather pay an extra 100,000 jin of raw material than say that?"

Tu Fei, pulling Li Heishui along, was spitting at an old man opposite them.

P.S.: 5 AM...
