“We won’t have to team up, but after you go in, you must keep a low profile. Don’t offend too many people. Otherwise, even I may not be able to protect you fully.”
Looking at Yang Zhen with concern, Hua Youyue earnestly advised him.
Yang Zhen hurriedly nodded, saying, “Rest assured, I am the most low-profile person!”
A passerby named Ma Yuan, who happened to be passing by, stumbled, feeling that the words seemed familiar.
“Yang Zhen?” Ma Yuan couldn’t help but exclaim when he saw Yang Zhen, startling his companion.
“Ma Yuan, what the hell are you shouting about?” A man with a big beard nearby said impatiently, looking in the direction of Ma Yuan’s gaze.
Next to Big Beard, a decently proportioned young woman was taken aback, “Big Brother Hu, did Ma Yuan just say Yang Zhen?”
“What?” Big Beard was taken aback, quick to shrink his neck. He saw Yang Zhen following Ma Yuan’s gaze and immediately stopped Ma Yuan, who was about to go up and say hello, “Let’s go in later.”
“Why?” Ma Yuan asked, looking puzzled.
The young woman glared at Ma Yuan with lingering fear and said, “Are you stupid? Yang Zhen offends people everywhere he goes. If we walk with him, we’ll definitely face danger. With our strength, it would be better to just train honestly on the second or third floor for three days. There’s no need to get involved with people like Yang Zhen.”
Ma Yuan nodded thoughtfully and commented with some regret, “If that’s the case, then we should go our way. Can I at least say hello before I go… What are you doing?”
Big Beard and the young woman jumped away simultaneously, looking at Ma Yuan with vigilant expressions. The rest of the crowd also had strange expressions, looking at Ma Yuan with some fear.
“Ma Yuan, if you get involved, don’t blame us for not remembering old times and severing ties with you!” Big Beard said seriously, “Haven’t you realized yet, if Yang Zhen dares to enter the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower, he’s as good as dead!”
“Why?” Ma Yuan, with his intelligence, found it hard to see through the situation.
Big Beard sneered, “Outside the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower, Flower Tower Master is protecting Yang Zhen, and the people of Dajiang Country don’t dare to be too reckless. Once Yang Zhen enters, it becomes a world dominated by Golden Core Stage powerhouses. How is a Foundation Establishment practitioner like Yang Zhen supposed to survive?”
“You mean…they want to kill Yang Zhen?” Ma Yuan couldn’t believe it, “If Yang Zhen dies, can they walk out of Flame City unharmed?”
“Hmph, the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower isn’t without its dangers. There have been people in the past who died in fights for treasures. If Yang Zhen dies suddenly within, who knows who did it?” Big Beard said analytically,
“By the time Changyue Tower investigates, these people may have already fled overseas. After all, the major participants in the overseas trials are Golden Core Stage practitioners. There, practitioners below the Golden Core Stage probably can’t even withstand a single strike from the truly powerful.”
At the mention of the overseas trials, Ma Yuan’s face changed several times. For mainland practitioners, the overseas trials were both a great opportunity and a great danger.
Anyone who participated in the overseas trials and managed to return became a target sought after by all the big sects, and their future achievements could not be underestimated.
Now, Yang Zhen had offended two major sects in Dajiang Country and the Wanhua Valley in the Water Spirit Country. Once he entered the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower, he might be completely isolated.
Even if Changyue Tower sent a Golden Core Stage practitioner to protect Yang Zhen, the Golden Core Stage practitioner wouldn’t be able to stay by Yang Zhen’s side once they entered.
With Yang Zhen’s current strength, it was already very decent that he could enter the fifth floor of the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower. The Golden Core Stage Practitioner might be able to go directly into the ninth floor, or at least the eighth one.
Once the Golden Core Stage practitioner from Changyue Tower leaves the fifth floor, Yang Zhen is almost certainly doomed.
“Should I…should I inform Yang Zhen?” Ma Yuan said, feeling somewhat conflicted.
Big Beard sneered and glanced enviously at Yang Zhen, “Stop being naive. If we can figure it out, won’t Flower Tower Master be able to?”
Ma Yuan came to a realization and said, “Then… let’s go in later!”
Hua Youyue looked at Yang Zhen, her brows furrowed, “Did you remember everything I just said to you?”
Yang Zhen nodded, saying, “I remember!”
“Repeat it one more time?” Hua Youyue was evidently unsettled.
Yang Zhen said earnestly, “After entering, I will find an unoccupied spot on the fourth floor to practice for three days. Then immediately leave, so those people with ill intentions won’t find me, they naturally can’t kill me…”
Hua Youyue sighed and said, “I know you are impatient, but even the gifted need time to grow. You are about to go on a trial abroad. Only when you get there you will realise how vast the world is. Until then, you must safeguard yourself.”
At this point, Hua Youyue gritted her teeth and said, “If you can break through to the Minor Mahayana Phase in these three days, I can promise you one condition before you venture out to the sea!”
“Any condition?” Yang Zhen’s eyes widened, displaying a weird expression.
Hua Youyue frowned, her face flushed slightly as she glared at Yang Zhen, “You only have one chance.”
“Well, that’s it!” Yang Zhen smirked, “I’m going in. The service efficiency of Changyue Tower is too poor. There hasn’t been a Golden Core Stage person coming until now?”
A gorgeous smile appeared on Hua Youyue’s face, “They’ve already gone in, and will wait for you on the first floor!”
Yang Zhen was taken aback and turned around to dash off hastily.
“Yang Zhen, wait for me!” Lan Fangyue quickly followed.
Hua Youyue sighed and left.
Tan Fenglie laughed, “Your expectations for this Yang Zhen are indeed beyond ordinary!”
Hua Youyue nodded, “I have a premonition that if he can shed his rebellious nature, his future accomplishments will be immeasurable.”
Tan Fenglie fell into contemplation, “But fierceness can lead to an easy downfall.”
Hua Youyue’s eyebrows knitted ever so slightly. She turned to see the bald-headed group approaching. Their faces bore pseudo-smiling expressions. They nodded to Hua Youyue from afar before heading towards the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower together.
“Humph!”
Hua Youyue snorted lightly. She wasn’t too worried about these people committing something outrageous. What she feared was that Yang Zhen wouldn’t heed her advice.
Yang Zhen arrived at the entrance of the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower, picked up his identification plaque, and left his mark on the record stone. He then turned around and strode towards the entrance.
“Yang Zhen!”
Lan Fangyue’s voice came from behind. She approached Yang Zhen and reminded him, “The wooden plaque represents your identity. It allows people outside the tower to know your exact location. And if the wooden plaque breaks, a specific expert will go in to find the owner of the plaque.”
At this, Lan Fangyue took a deep breath and after a moment’s hesitation, said, “So, if you face danger, you must smash this wooden plaque immediately!”
Yang Zhen nodded, turned around and walked away saying, “Don’t worry. It won’t be easy for the wolves to take my life. It’s uncertain who’ll end up falling… It’s increasingly becoming more interesting!”
The last sentence was a low mutter, his eyes flickering with a glow. He took a quick glance in the direction of Dajiang Country and Water Spirit Country, revealing an interesting smile to the onlookers wearing the same expression.
“Remember, after entering, you’ll randomly appear inside. You must remember to find the aura of the wooden tags I just told you about, so senior brother Dong and the others can find you as quickly as possible.”
Yang Zhen waved his hand and stepped into the entrance of the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower.
Watching Yang Zhen’s departing figure, Lan Fangyue had an uneasy feeling for some unknown reason..
