On the other side, Huang Qingyang's brows were furrowed even more tightly than Yue Rui's.

He had long anticipated that Yue Rui would not let his disciple's flying sword go unpunished.

I just didn't expect this guy to arrive so quickly.

He carefully recalled their conversation, then suddenly slapped his forehead and cursed, "Why did I bring up money? I'm getting senile."

Like Yue Rui, Huang Qingyang also discovered his own problems.

He's always been a big spender, and if he likes something, he'll never back down because of its price.

This is something that all of Huang Qingyang's old friends know.

Damn, this is a huge problem!

Huang Qingyang didn't dare to delay and immediately told Wang Xingyu about it.

After listening, Wang Xingyu said irritably, "Old Huang, do you even know the truth? Didn't you say you didn't know many people in the Xuanmen sect? When did such a powerful figure in the Xuanmen sect become your old friend?"

Huang Qingyang said awkwardly, "We haven't been in touch for years, I had completely forgotten about him."

How could Wang Xingyu possibly believe him? He replied, "You're kidding me."

Huang Qingyang said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Xiao Wang, Yue Rui came to Haijiang definitely to investigate your identity. What do you think we should do?"

Wang Xingyu thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid we can't hide it. The main problem lies with that Yin Junfeng. Don't let his ordinary cultivation fool you; his spiritual power is extraordinary. As soon as he sees you and Old Zhao, he'll recognize you immediately."

Huang Qingyang asked, "Then what should we do? I can't possibly refuse to see Yue Rui."

Wang Xingyu said, "To tell you the truth."

Huang Qingyang's expression changed, and he said, "Yue Rui has a bad temper. Once he finds out that you stole his disciple's flying sword, he'll definitely make trouble for you."

Wang Xingyu said, "As long as I use the flying sword, he will find out sooner or later. Besides, I also want to test this Xuanmen master's cultivation level. If he can defeat me, I will return the flying sword to him."

Huang Qingyang said, "Then it seems you two are about to have a grudge."

Wang Xingyu said calmly, "The feud began the moment I snatched his disciple's flying sword."

Huang Qingyang said, "Can't you just give it back to them?"

Wang Xingyu said, "Elder Huang, when have you ever seen the king of beasts bow down to a beast inferior to itself?"

In Huang Qingyang's subconscious, he always felt that Yue Rui was invincible and that Wang Xingyu could never be his match, which is why he had the idea of ​​settling things peacefully.

Hearing Wang Xingyu's confident reply, Huang Qingyang suddenly realized that he might have been wrong. Wang Xingyu seemed to be no less than Yue Rui, and might even be stronger than Yue Rui.

There might actually be a fight between the two of them.

Thinking about this, Huang Qingyang felt a headache coming on.

Wang Xingyu seemed to have guessed what Huang Qingyang was thinking, and chuckled, "Old Huang, don't worry, I have no grudge against Yue Rui, I won't hurt him."

Huang Qingyang said helplessly, "You're too confident. Is it really unavoidable?"

Wang Xingyu laughed and said, "I can't avoid it, and I don't want to avoid it."

Huang Qingyang sighed and said, "I understand."

At 2 p.m. the next day, Yue Rui and his apprentice Yin Junfeng came out of the airport.

Seeing Zhao Yuan standing out like a crane among chickens at the airport exit, Yue Rui was shocked, and his pupils shrank.

Innate Realm!

While Yin Junfeng was shocked, a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes. He felt that this person's aura was similar to that of the guy wearing the Sha Wujing mask.

Could it be...?

Zhao Yuan stepped forward and greeted him with a smile.

"Mr. Yue, it's been a long time. Mr. Huang sent me to pick you up."

"This is troublesome."

The three got into the car, and Zhao Yuan drove out of the airport.

On the way, Yue Rui asked, "Little Zhao, when did you reach the Innate Realm?"

Zhao Yuandao said, "I managed to break through ten days ago by sheer luck."

Yue Rui smiled and said, "Breaking through from the acquired to the innate realm, how can there be any element of luck?"

Yin Junfeng couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Zhao, did you and Elder Huang attend the Haijiang Ghost Market auction?"

Zhao Yuan nodded and said, "I participated."

Yin Junfeng continued, "You bought a bracelet of twenty-four pieces of agarwood and a jade ruyi, right?"

Zhao Yuan didn't hide anything and nodded again, saying, "Yes."

Yue Rui's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he said, "So, you know the expert who stole Junfeng's flying sword?"

Zhao Yuan nodded for the third time.

"I know him. You'll see him in a little while."

Yue Rui was silent for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter.

"Interesting, very interesting indeed. Xiao Zhao, tell me, who is he?"

Zhao Yuandao said, "His name is Wang Xingyu. He's my benefactor. I was able to break through to the Innate Realm entirely thanks to him. Elder Huang's idea is that it's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester. He wants to act as a peacemaker. After all, this whole thing started because of him."

Yue Rui said, "As long as he is willing to return Junfeng's flying sword, then there is no problem."

Zhao Yuan remained silent and did not respond.

Yue Rui immediately understood his meaning and asked, "Wang Xingyu is unwilling?"

Zhao Yuandao said, "Elder Yue, let's talk about this after you meet. I can't make a decision for Mr. Wang."

Yue Rui closed his eyes and uttered a single word: "Good."

Half an hour later, the car came to a smooth stop in front of the Treasure Pavilion.

Huang Qingyang had been drinking tea at the entrance. When he saw Yue Rui get out of the car, he stood up and greeted him with a smile.

"Mr. Yue, it's been so many years! You haven't aged at all; in fact, you seem to be getting younger and younger. It's truly enviable."

"I'm just a carefree person, I don't need to work as hard as you, it's normal to be younger. Old Huang, why did you suddenly admit it?"

Huang Qingyang pointed at Yin Junfeng and said, "What if you don't admit it? Do you think you can fool your disciple?"

Yue Rui clasped his hands in a respectful bow and said, "I apologize to you first. If I had known that you were the one buying the items, I would never have let him try to steal them."

Yin Junfeng also bowed and said, "Elder Huang, I'm sorry."

Huang Qingyang waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. Come in and sit down."

Huang Qingyang invited the two into the Treasure Pavilion and brewed them each a cup of tea.

He used his own tea, not Wang Xingyu's spiritual tea.

That thing is too precious to serve guests.

Yue Rui picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and asked, "Where is that master of the Xuanmen sect?"

Huang Qingyang said, "Xiao Wang's grandfather had some trouble, so he went back home. He's probably on his way back to Haijiang right now."

Ok?

Xiao Wang?

grandfather?

Upon hearing these titles, Yue Rui raised an eyebrow and asked, "How old is Wang Xingyu this year?"

Huang Qingyang said, "Twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old."

Yin Junfeng couldn't help but exclaim, "This is impossible!"

Yue Rui glanced at Yin Junfeng, who realized he had been rude and quickly lowered his head.

"You're no longer hiding things from me, that must be Wang Xingyu's idea, right?"

"Yes. Xiao Wang means it's much better to deal with it sooner rather than later. Elder Yue, Xiao Wang only did this to protect me. I'm friends with both of you, and I really don't want to see you two turn against each other."

"Wang Xingyu not killing Junfeng is already a great favor. I came here mainly to meet this person from the Xuanmen sect, but I didn't expect him to be so young."

"If that's the case, then that would be perfect."
