The Dark Palace Master's words caused an uproar among the cultivators present.
"These people have benefited from misfortune, I suppose. The Dark Palace is an absolutely powerful force; I want to join but don't even have a way to do so."
"You? You're dreaming! You don't even know your own limitations. They're all at the Emperor Realm. How can you compare?"
"Hey, do you guys think they'll agree?"
"Judging from their attitude, it's hard to say. But I'm quite curious about what they're dismantling and why the people from the Dark Palace are stopping them."
Qin Feng, Leng Yuexi, and the others remained calm as they faced the Abyss Palace Master, who stood high above them, as if they hadn't heard a thing.
Joining the Dark Temple? Qin Feng had never considered that.
When the Palace Master Yuan saw that Qin Feng and the others did not respond immediately, he frowned slightly, his expression changed, and he wanted to reprimand them.
Just then, several figures appeared and interrupted him.
"Tianwen greets the Palace Master and all the seniors."
This person is Tianwen, the head of the Tianji Pavilion. The Tianji Pavilion is one of the three giants of Lingshan Yunhai and holds a prestigious position.
Ke Tianwen was very respectful to the people of the Dark Palace, completely unlike the arrogance he showed when facing other cultivators.
Lord Yuan glanced at him briefly before ignoring him and turning his gaze in another direction, where he saw Shang Ziming of Jubaoge.
His attitude towards Shang Ziming was completely different from his attitude towards Tianwen. His voice was gentle, and even through the mask, everyone could feel his kindness.
"Ziming is here too."
Shang Ziming cupped his hands slightly and said, "Ziming greets the Palace Master. It's so lively here with so many people."
Lord Yuan chuckled and said, "There was a slight accident, I apologize for making you laugh. I'll take care of it quickly."
Shang Ziming nodded in response.
He surveyed his surroundings, especially the location where Qin Feng and the others were. Sensing the change in spiritual energy, he knew what had happened.
He was quite surprised that Qin Feng and the others had actually dismantled the great formation that sealed off Tianhuang.
How did they do it? This formation is no simple feat.
Why would they dare to do this? Aren't they afraid of retaliation from the Dark Palace? In the Heavenly Desolate Continent, the Dark Palace has an absolute advantage in combat power.
Suppressing his doubts, Shang Ziming chuckled at Qin Feng and said, "Brother Qin, it's been a long time."
Qin Feng was not surprised at all to see Shang Ziming appear. With such a big commotion, how could Jubaoge, one of the giants, not know about it?
To his surprise, Shang Ziming's cultivation level was actually at the Great Emperor realm.
And then there's Manager Qian, who works for Shang Ziming; Qin Feng still can't figure him out.
Qin Feng suppressed his surprise and responded with a smile.
"Brother Shang, it's been a long time. I never expected your cultivation to be so profound. I am honored to be worthy of your title."
Shang Ziming laughed heartily, "What are you saying, brother? We've caught up with you now, haven't we? It hasn't taken long at all."
Qin Feng and Shang Ziming were chatting and laughing together, addressing each other as brothers, their relationship was extremely good.
The others looked surprised.
Upon seeing this, the Palace Master Yuan's expression turned serious, and he said in a low voice, "Young Master Shang, you won't interfere in this matter, will you?"
Qin Feng looked at Shang Ziming with surprise, then at the serious-looking Lord Yuan.
He was genuinely curious about just how capable his older brother was and what his stance was.
Shang Ziming said calmly, "Qin Feng is my brother. If the Palace Master can give me face, let's drop this matter."
The Lord of the Abyss's expression turned grim. Suppressing his anger, he said in a deep voice:
"Absolutely not. Young Master Shang must know the seriousness of this matter. If he can let this go, where will that leave the face of my Dark Palace?"
And don't forget our agreement: you're just doing business, you're not allowed to interfere in my affairs. What you're doing now is already a violation of the agreement.
After hearing this, Qin Feng understood why Jubaoge focused solely on its business and hardly interfered in other matters; it turned out they had an agreement long ago.
If the Dark Palace is an outsider, then is the Treasure Pavilion also an outsider?
It seems his older brother has quite a powerful background!
Upon hearing this, Shang Ziming remained calm and composed, saying indifferently, "What if I insist on interfering?"
After meeting Qin Feng this time, Shang Ziming was very satisfied with Qin Feng in all aspects.
Qin Feng's ability to break through to the Emperor Realm and even reach the Great Emperor Realm under such circumstances far exceeded his expectations, making him worthy of his help.
Qin Feng was quite surprised. He didn't expect Shang Ziming to step forward at this moment, stand firmly on his side, and oppose the powerful Black Palace.
Qin Feng couldn't help but feel more respect for Shang Ziming as his elder brother.
Upon hearing this, Lord Yuan was completely distraught; Shang Ziming's appearance had put him in a very difficult position.
He was unwilling to offend Shang Ziming, nor was he willing to let Qin Feng and the others off the hook.
At this moment, Gu Ming sized up Shang Ziming, Qin Feng, and the others, and then transmitted his voice to the Palace Master Yuan:
"Palace Master, what do you think of this? It's not appropriate to directly antagonize Shang Ziming. Let's give him face and allow him to choose one person to take away."
In my opinion, the only person Shang Ziming truly cares about is Qin Feng. If he could resolve this matter alone, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
Palace Master Yuan frowned slightly, but still agreed to Gu Ming's suggestion, and said to Shang Ziming:
"How about this, Young Master Shang? I won't say I'm disrespecting you, but you can choose one of these people to leave. This is already our biggest concession."
Upon hearing this, Shang Ziming frowned deeply. This man surnamed Yuan must have realized that he had taken a liking to Qin Feng before making this suggestion.
But he knew that Qin Feng would never abandon his companions.
He shook his head. "One isn't enough. I mean all of them."
Palace Master Yuan's anger surged. "Impossible! Young Master Shang, we have already given you a lot of face. Don't embarrass us. Don't forget that this is the Heavenly Desolate Continent."
