The old man quickly reached out and pinched his thigh. The pain in his thigh made him realize that he was not dreaming.
Where did the young lady get this formation plate?
Then he suddenly thought of Bai Feng's identity and achievements. Could it be...
He subconsciously looked towards Bai Feng, but was stopped by Yu Yao: "Don't you want to know about the formation plate? We only need to tell the guests what the formation plate does, and don't tell them anything else!"
Yu Yao's tone was heavy and cold, like a mountain pressing down on him, making it difficult for him to breathe.
"Yes, yes, I know nothing!"
The old man nodded quickly. Although he didn't know why his information had to be hidden, no matter whether it was the eldest lady or a certain formation genius, they were not people he could not offend. All he had to do was to do things according to the eldest lady's instructions!
"Well, I trust you to do the work." Yu Yao's tone became gentle again, "Okay, you go and deal with the auction. I want to take my junior brothers and sisters to visit the auction house."
"Yes, Miss."
The old man quickly left the room and walked in the corridor, with a more emotional look on his face.
No wonder the eldest lady looks down on that weapon refiner. With such a junior brother around, he really doesn’t need him!
Of course, we still need to maintain a good relationship with the weapon refiner. To show respect, let him take the field in person.
In the room.
"I didn't realize you had the temperament of a young lady!"
After the old man left, Bai Feng seemed much more casual. He picked up a piece of cake and joked to Yu Yao with a smile.
"Alas, after all, our business family is different from your Bai family. There are people watching you inside and outside!" Yu Yao stretched lazily, "Fortunately, I joined the Tianjian Sect, so I don't have to worry about those things."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." She jumped off the chair, picked up a few cakes and stuffed them into her mouth, and said vaguely, "I'll take you to visit Yu Linglong. Junior brother, don't you want to buy some formation materials?"
"Then Senior Sister must give me a bigger discount!"
…
Because of the appearance of a new son of luck, Bai Feng did not hang around outside for too long. After buying the materials for the formation and having breakfast with Bai Yumo and Yu Yao, he returned to the City Lord's Mansion.
As soon as he came back, Liu Meng called him: "Bai Feng, you're back just in time. Tomorrow we will start the preparations for building the formation. Let me first tell you about the precautions when building the formation to prevent any accidents."
"Yes, Master."
Bai Feng nodded, and after talking to Bai Yumo and Yu Yao for a few words, he walked to Liu Meng's side and listened to her talk about the precautions in building a large formation.
"…That's basically it. We don't need to worry about things outside the formation. Chu Ningyan will help take care of it."
Bai Feng nodded thoughtfully. The large formation was indeed very different from the ordinary formation. For example, one was a small two-story bungalow, and the other was a high-rise building with dozens or even a hundred floors. The latter was naturally more troublesome to build.
But he still had another confusion: "Isn't Xuanguang City a place far away from the demons? Could there be other people coming to cause trouble?"
Could it be other sects? But building a large formation is more like a transaction where others spend money and they contribute. Although it will indeed increase the contact between the two parties, it does not mean that the other party will completely turn to the Tianjian Sect.
Otherwise, the Northern Territory would have long been the territory of the Fengling Sect.
Liu Meng shook his head: "You were born in the Bai family, so you may not know much about cultivators other than the righteous and evil paths."
“Although the Northern Territory appears to be ruled by both the righteous and evil sects, that is only the high-level combat power. Among the more numerous middle-level and lower-level cultivators, they are mainly composed of independent cultivators or cultivators from small and medium-sized sects. Although most of them are righteous cultivators on the surface, they actually don’t care about the battle between the righteous and the evil. They care more about their own interests.”
Bai Feng nodded. Although he didn't go out for many years, it didn't mean that he was isolated from the news. On the contrary, he liked to collect some news and rumors from the outside world. The facts were indeed as Liu Meng said.
Although many independent cultivators are afraid of the cruelty of the evil ways, they also don't like the righteous ways. After all, the righteous ways are not all good people. The most typical examples are some playboys who bully men and women without being severely punished. Not to mention that the big sects still firmly occupy the best cultivation resources. These independent cultivators and small and medium-sized sects can only get a little leftovers, which is just better than the evil ways overall.
"Originally they were just a group of scattered people, but later someone united them. Although they still had their own ulterior motives, they now had a common goal."
"Their goal is also very simple. For their own benefit, they do not want one side to be too powerful. It would be best if neither side could do anything to the other, or even if both sides were defeated. Only then can they gain the greatest benefit from both sides."
Liu Meng seemed to have had contact with that group of people. She continued in a calm tone, "But the formation will disrupt the balance they hope for. After all, as long as the formation is in place, it will be difficult for the demons to break through. It will also increase the difficulty for the demons to sneak into the righteous territory and even cause sabotage behind the righteous. So they will find a way to unite with the demons to destroy the construction of the formation. They don't need to do it themselves, they just need to spread the news to the demons."
Bai Feng pondered for a few seconds. No wonder the Tianjian Sect sent so many elders this time. Although he showed a great talent in formation, he should not be protected by so many elders when he went out. Now it seems that they were trying to protect the formation from being destroyed by the evil people.
"Sorry, I've said too much." Liu Meng shook his head, "Let's continue. I'll tell you about the layout of the formation."
"Yes, Master."
While Bai Feng was listening to Liu Meng's description of the layout of the formation, a hint of worry emerged in his heart.
Will that Hei Lian guy take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble?
Coupled with the appearance of the Son of Fortune today, this is an even more ominous symbol. There will definitely be problems with the construction of the formation!
He had already thought of the subsequent plot. An accident occurred in the formation, and Xuanguang City was in danger under the attack of the demons. All the elders of the Tianjian Sect were entangled by the masters of the demons. Just when the formation was about to be destroyed by several young generation disciples of the demons, the Son of Luck appeared out of nowhere. He was first ridiculed by the disciples of the demons for his cultivation level, but then the Son of Luck defeated the disciples of the demons above his level, saved the city from danger, and won the praise of the city lord and his daughter.
'but……'
Bai Feng thought of the three sons of luck who came with him this time, and felt that the plot would not develop so smoothly.
He just didn't know whether it was heading in a good direction or a bad direction.
…
In the next two days, Bai Feng also became busy.
But even so, he still found time to talk to Yuyao about clothes. For this purpose, he even stayed up late to draw a few pictures, and firmly "locked" Yuyao in the City Lord's Mansion, not allowing her to get close to the auction house.
"This is..." Yu Yao's eyes widened so wide that they almost stuck to the paper.
"Wedding dress." Bai Feng sat on the chair with his hands crossed. "Remember the white theme picture that Teacher Chunqiu came up with? This is one of them. It is also the most daring design in my opinion."
"Hundreds and thousands of years ago, or even longer ago, weddings were mostly held in red, but Mr. Chunqiu boldly chose white, which not only looks good, but also adds a touch of purity and holiness to it."
Yu Yao nodded vigorously: "Little Junior Brother, you are absolutely right! As expected, Teacher Chunqiu always brings me new surprises. I will work hard to get this set of clothes tonight!"
Seeing that Yu Yao had gone completely crazy, Bai Feng smiled slightly and said: Senior Sister, just stay in the City Lord's Mansion and make clothes honestly, and don't think about the auction for now.
