Chapter 341 Ming Dianying
Chapter 341 Ming Dianying
"Yes!"
Miao Qingcheng nodded. "Based on my understanding of Ming Dianying, Ming Dianying must have explored the ancient ruins first, but I'm afraid not only did he not gain anything, but he was also injured... He won't be able to recover from his injuries for a while, and he is probably recovering now. The earliest time he can recover is probably tomorrow night..."
"Ye Fan, the ancient ruins that Ming Dianying is about to announce this time are so dangerous just outside that they are terrifying... so much so that Ming Dianying, who wants to take everything for himself, chose to announce the news in order to use the power of many profound practitioners to break in..."
At this point, Miao Qingcheng looked at Ye Fan with a serious expression, "Ye Fan, this ancient secret realm does have very good treasures, so good that it may even allow people to ascend to heaven in one step, but its dangers are also unimaginable. I don't know how many talented people have perished in it... Even the powerful monarchs are no exception!"
"Thank you for the reminder, but I'm not interested in the ancient secret realm. I will continue my treasure hunt after tomorrow~"
Ye Fan waved his hand and said.
"Ah That's good!"
Miao Qingcheng nodded slightly. He could tell that Ye Fan was not fooling him, but really had no interest in the ancient secret realm.
Afterwards, Ye Fan and his group had a hearty meal in a pub and then went back to their respective residences.
....
Under the night sky,
Miao Qingcheng looked at the direction where Ye Fan left and slowly said, "Wen Zheng, do you think there is something strange about Ye Fan?"
"Strange? Indeed!"
Wen Zheng nodded slightly, "His cultivation has indeed progressed rapidly... He is extremely talented in Xuanwen and Fuzhuan... Oh, and also in medicine and alchemy..."
"What else?"
Wen Zheng spoke seriously for a long time, and after he stopped, Miao Qingcheng spoke again.
"Something else?"
Wen Zheng frowned, "Lao Miao, what did you see?"
"call!"
Miao Qingcheng sighed slightly, "Wen Zheng, did you notice that when Ye Fan was here just now, the mysterious energy in the world around him had a tendency to move closer to him..."
"How could this... cause the mysterious energy between heaven and earth to approach on its own?"
Wen Zheng was surprised. "Even if it is a Venerable Rank expert, it is only possible for the mysterious energy between heaven and earth to change when practicing... But that can only happen to a Venerable Rank 7 or above. How could Ye Fan do that?"
"I also find it incredible... Yesterday I thought it was an illusion... Today I observed carefully and found that the mysterious energy around Ye Fan's position did show signs of gathering towards him... And this is not because Ye Fan is practicing..."
Miao Qingcheng took a deep breath and said, "The technique Ye Fan is practicing is probably very extraordinary!"
....
the next day,
at dusk,
A complex of magnificent buildings with flying eaves, carved beams and painted buildings is packed with practitioners of the Mystical Realm. This is where the Qinhuai City Lord's Mansion is located, and those practitioners of the Mystical Realm are the ones waiting for Prince Yuanzheng Ming Dianying to announce the location of the ancient ruins.
There are many powerful people among these profound practitioners, and in order to grab a better position, they came to wait outside the City Lord's Mansion in the early morning of this morning...
Liu Mengying and Axin were following Miao Qingcheng, Wen Zheng and Fu Kuang along the flow of people, slowly walking forward.
"Mengying, isn't Ye Fan here?"
Miao Qingcheng looked around and spoke slowly.
Wen Zheng and Fu Kuang also looked at Liu Mengying with puzzled eyes. Although Ye Fan had said before that he was not interested in the ancient secret realm, they were still surprised that he didn't even come.
"Big brother had something to do, so he didn't come!"
As she spoke, Liu Mengying turned her gaze to the surroundings and looked around curiously.
"Mengying, that's Dai Xuqi from Cuilin Pavilion. He's moody and has a bad temper. He kills people at the slightest provocation. Many people have been killed just for looking at them!"
Wen Zheng saw Liu Mengying staring curiously at a fat middle-aged man in green clothes, and immediately spoke up.
"Ah, it really is someone from Cuilin Pavilion!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Mengying immediately shifted her gaze. She had just seen the clothes the other person was wearing and guessed that the other person might be from Cuiling Pavilion, but she didn't expect it to be true.
"There are so many bad guys in Cuilin Pavilion... My elder brother and I have encountered many of them before, and now there is another one..."
Liu Mengying muttered rather depressedly.
"Don't worry, Liu girl. Among the people present today, Dai Xuqi's strength can barely be considered average. He will have a good temper!"
Fu Kuang continued the conversation with a laugh.
"Mengying, those are the people from the Jin Sect among the Five Sects..."
"That middle-aged man in armor is from Zijinxuan, one of the three sects..."
"That's the Fire Yin Sect of the Western Region..."
..........
Miao Qingcheng, Wen Zheng, and Fu Kuang did not ask about Ye Fan anymore, but introduced all kinds of people around them to Liu Mengying and A Xin...
..........
The night falls,
The area around the Qinhuai City Lord's Mansion was packed with a large number of Xuan cultivators. Even the rooftops were filled with people, and there were also many king-level Xuan cultivators soaring in the air.
Because there were so many people, there were constant frictions and quarrels at the scene.
"Thank you all for your kindness, heroes, but please come down and listen to me tell you about the ancient secrets!"
Suddenly, a deep shout came from the City Lord's Mansion.
The person who spoke was not loud, but all the Xuan practitioners present heard it clearly. Many of the king-level Xuan practitioners who were standing in the air turned pale and quickly fell back to the ground. Several of them quickly brushed their mouths with their sleeves when they landed, secretly wiping away the spilled blood. They looked at the City Lord's Mansion with fear in their eyes...
After the deep shout, the noisy scene suddenly became silent. Under the gaze of the dark crowd of Xuan cultivators, a man wearing a gilded four-clawed python robe and with sharp eyes appeared on the high platform in front of the City Lord's Mansion. It was none other than Prince Yuanzheng Ming Dianying.
Behind Ming Dianying was a middle-aged man dressed in gorgeous red and purple clothes. He was the lord of Qinhuai City, Ma Wannian.
"Elder Wen Zheng, is that person wearing... a dragon robe?"
Liu Mengying looked at Ming Dianying who was standing on a high platform a considerable distance ahead, and said in a low voice in amazement: "I heard from my father that only the emperor can wear the dragon robe...if anyone else wears it, they will be beheaded!"
There were many people present who had the same doubts as Liu Mengying, and many of them began to murmur.
"Mengying, that's a python robe... 'Five dragons and four pythons'... The dragon on the emperor's brocade robe has five claws... and the dragon on Ming Dianying's brocade robe has four claws. Strictly speaking, it can only be considered a 'python'... However, the only difference between the brocade robe Ming Dianying wears and the dragon robe is the number of dragon claws on them..."
Wen Zheng lowered his voice, "And if you don't look closely, it's hard to tell that there are only four claws!"
"This Ming Dianying is not simple... There is a rumor that Ming Dianying took the initiative to withdraw from the competition for the throne, otherwise the throne would not have passed to Ming Jue!"
At this time, Liu Mengying, Wen Zheng and Fu Kuang all heard a male voice. It was Miao Qingcheng's voice, but Miao Qingcheng did not speak.
"quiet!"
Just as the large crowd at the scene showed signs of becoming noisy again, a powerful voice was heard. It was indeed the Lord of Qinhuai City, Ma Wannian. His voice carried with it powerful fluctuations of profound energy, which spread in all directions.
