Chapter 2410 - 2389: Conspiracy Behind the Scenes
Sure, here is the translated text:
Time flies like an arrow, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, the terrifying clouds in the sky dissipated, and Lin Feng slowly stood up in the valley, lightly shaking his body to scatter the dew off, his face filled with a smile. This year, he had consumed over a thousand Yuan Stones, ultimately completing the Yuangang Transformation within his body. The feeling of this power returning to him was extremely pleasant, though he hadn’t yet become a Divine King Powerhouse, the distance was definitely not far.
However, Lin Feng found it strange that although his Yuangang had completely transformed, he didn’t encounter any bottleneck. His body seemed like a bottomless pit, still able to absorb Yuan Energy. Previously, the speed of absorption was slow, but now it was like a whale swallowing, and the fullness of Yuangang within him was somewhat uncontrollable.
Is it because his path is different from others, being a unique existence in the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm?
This thought emerged in Lin Feng’s mind, and the more he pondered, the more possible it seemed. In the lower realm, his situation was different from others, so continuing in this manner was entirely possible here. Hence, he no longer needed to specifically retreat in seclusion but rather needed to comprehend and enhance his own strength.
As he contemplated these matters, suddenly a figure rushed into Lin Feng’s embrace, without saying a word, clutching him tightly. When he looked down, Lin Feng immediately smiled and said, "Tao Tao, what’s wrong?"
"Nothing, I’m just happy for Brother Lin. Now that Brother Lin has finally completed the Yuangang Transformation, we no longer have to live hiding our identities!" Tao Tao said while holding onto Lin Feng, still not letting go.
Upon hearing, Lin Feng smiled indifferently. Previously, without completing the Yuangang Transformation, he had to use a disguise Secret Technique with Tao Tao to hide their identities. Now that his strength has returned, though he hasn’t become a Divine King Powerhouse, he isn’t afraid even when facing a real Divine King Powerhouse, given his methods.
"Boss, don’t listen to Miss Tao Tao that much. She’s just lovesick. You didn’t know, but she’s been maintaining one posture just watching you for more than a year!" Tangyuan suddenly interrupted.
"Tangyuan! I’m going to tear your mouth apart!" Tao Tao went ballistic upon hearing Tangyuan’s comment, immediately chasing after Tangyuan, throwing all kinds of attacks, her pretty face as red as a ripe apple, whether due to embarrassment or anger.
"I’m not wrong! When you saw the boss wake up, your heart jumped! That’s definitely falling in love!"
"Shut up!"
"Why should I shut up? You were smiling just now when you were hugging the boss!"
"Ah... I’m going to kill you!"
"Don’t freak out..."
...
Tangyuan kept running desperately, provoking Tao Tao, but before saying much, he was caught by Tao Tao and relentlessly tortured in her hands, causing Tangyuan to scream wildly.
Watching Tangyuan and Tao Tao messing around, a smile appeared on Lin Feng’s face; this is life!
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Tao Tao and Tangyuan calmed down and returned to Lin Feng’s side. However, Tangyuan’s face seemed quite swollen, while Tao Tao returned to her normal state. Tangyuan was a million times puzzled; he was speaking the truth, so why did he deserve such treatment...
"Okay, we should return."
Lin Feng looked at Tao Tao, smiling, then walked in the direction of Xucheng, wondering how things were going inside, and what was happening with the Holy Pill Pavilion...
......
In the Xucheng Auction House, Chu Qiao, with a face as dark as the bottom of a pot, was discussing in a secret room with a trusted confidant.
"Elder Chu, since Chu Yunpeng arrived here, your status has worsened. We can’t keep Chu Yunpeng around!"
Chu Xu expressed his concern to Chu Qiao. When Chu Yunpeng first came to the Xucheng Auction House, there was nothing notable. But since his sudden rise a year ago, having seized control of almost the entire auction house, Chu Qiao and Chu Xu were left without any options. If this continues, it won’t be long before the Myriad Gods Tower sends them to a smaller town below!
"Nonsense, I want to take down Chu Yunpeng as well, but that guy hasn’t done anything wrong. How can I take him down? And I can’t directly take action against him. Otherwise, I would have already figured out a way to kill Chu Yunpeng!"
Chu Qiao said, extremely frustrated. Before Chu Yunpeng arrived, everyone came to him for matters. But now, it’s as though no one seeks him out anymore; everyone goes to Chu Yunpeng. The loss of authority has driven Chu Qiao to the brink of madness. At the current auctions, when one speaks of Elder Chu, it’s known to be Chu Yunpeng, with no one acknowledging Chu Qiao’s existence, fueling his resentment!
"I believe there’s a direction for us to take. Isn’t there a rule within the Myriad Gods Tower that our members can’t protect anyone or any influence under its name? Chu Yunpeng is so close with that guy Lin from the Holy Pill Pavilion. Report this to the Myriad Gods Tower, and even if it doesn’t take down Chu Yunpeng, it will give him enough trouble!"
Saying this, Chu Xu revealed a smug smile, continuing, "Once Chu Yunpeng’s authority is weakened, we can think of other methods, make some fake accounts, gather evidence, and set him up. Taking down Chu Yunpeng won’t be a problem."
Upon hearing this, Chu Qiao’s face lit up with a smile. This idea wasn’t bad. The Myriad Gods Tower is a special entity known for its rule of neutrality. Reporting under its name would surely lead Chu Yunpeng to severe consequences.
"Okay, let’s do it!" Chu Qiao nodded, agreeing with Chu Xu’s plan but was in no rush, still advising Chu Xu further: "Start collecting evidence on Chu Yunpeng and the Holy Pill Pavilion now. Once enough is gathered, we will deal with Chu Yunpeng!"
"Elder Chu, rest assured, leave this matter to me, and you’ll see results!" Chu Xu laughed, as if already envisioning Chu Yunpeng’s misfortune and watching Chu Qiao reclaim his original status, with his fortunes rising alongside...
Three days later, a high-level meeting was held within the Myriad Gods Tower.
"What has Chu Yunpeng been doing?"
"He’s been part of the tower for years; why would he act like this?"
"This must be resolved; otherwise, if others within the Myriad Gods Tower mimic this behavior, what are we to do?"
...
The Elders expressed their views one after another. Chu Yunpeng’s matter, though small, breached tower rules, necessitating resolution with an explanation, or else if others imitate, it would cause chaos within the tower.
Great Elder Xu Li observed the others, shaking his head, maintaining silence, only speaking once everyone voiced their opinions.
"I am aware of Chu Yunpeng’s affairs with the Holy Pill Pavilion, and I also know that young fellow Lin. I will share with you some unknown facts. That young Lin can freely refine Flawless Quality Elixirs and is a Master of Alchemy Path. The previously auctioned Scarlet Beauty was also from that young Lin, hence my arrangement for Chu Yunpeng to associate closely with the Holy Pill Pavilion was known from the start."
Xu Li calmly shared these facts, initially having no intention to divulge them, but the current situation necessitated this disclosure. Chu Yunpeng acted under his orders, and he couldn’t allow Chu Yunpeng to take the fall. Losing Lin Feng’s remarkable talents would be detrimental for the Myriad Gods Tower.
"What!"
"It’s actually like this!"
"That person can freely refine Flawless Quality Elixirs?"
"Scarlet Beauty was also provided by that person?"
...
The elders were astounded, none expected the truth to be like this. Freely refining Flawless Quality Elixirs — such a Master of Alchemy Path didn’t exist within the Myriad Gods Tower. Throughout the world, wasn’t Flawless Quality Elixir considered an occasional stroke of luck, something even a great Master couldn’t ensure with every batch? This was incredibly exaggerated; when did the Myriad Heavens Divine Realm gain such a miraculous person?
Even more astonishing was learning that the Scarlet Beauty obtained earlier was also provided by this individual. This revelation left them speechless. If they wished to acquire Scarlet Beauty again, offending this person was not an option. Chu Yunpeng’s close relationship with this person meant handling Chu Yunpeng would sever any future contact, making this entirely unwise.
"When have I ever spoken falsely? If you doubt, you may investigate personally." Xu Li stated calmly upon noticing some Persistent disbelief among them.
Upon hearing, everyone placed their faith in Xu Li’s words, as there was no reason or rationale for him to deceive them. Indeed, the owner of the Holy Pill Pavilion was truly exceptional, and arranging this way for such an extraordinary person was common sense. In their positions, they certainly wouldn’t miss such an opportunity either...
Before long, the Myriad Gods Tower’s ruling returned to the Xucheng Auction House. Seeing the ruling, Chu Qiao almost slammed the table to pieces, as it read: "The affairs undertaken by Chu Yunpeng are authorized within the Myriad Gods Tower, and the Xucheng Auction House must fully cooperate with Chu Yunpeng without fail..."
