Chapter 2845: Not in a Hurry

~7 min read 1,279 words

Besides, this is extremely rare worldwide, basically never appearing in Beyond the Heavens' Feather God Tribe divine feather; you are just an ordinary feather from the Feather God Tribe, and not a single one can be found even after searching the entire Heavenly Palace.

Such a supreme treasure appearing in the hands of an ordinary Human Race cultivator makes the problem huge.

Come on, seeing this Feather God Tribe divine feather, that Heavenly Official who had returned to normal immediately prepared to make a move and capture someone.

"Let me first capture him, then interrogate him slowly."

But this time, Ye Zhangqing instead stepped forward to stop that Heavenly Official.

Didn't you already capture this kid and interrogate him before? In the end you got nothing out of it, and you still don't know what method they used on you, leaving yourself in a messed-up state.

In Ye Zhangqing's view, the opponent's method hasn't been clarified yet; even if he were to capture them and interrogate again, the final result would probably be no different.

So for now, it's not the time to act.

"Don't rush, I have my own way."

Seeing Ye Zhangqing's calm expression, that Heavenly Official didn't insist further; although this kid isn't from the Heavenly Palace, even as a Heavenly Official, one cannot ignore his words.

On the other side, A Jiu was completely bewitched by the food's aroma, his mind filled only with the thought of eating.

Just like everyone else, and as everyone went crazy, the price kept rising; A Jiu saw he might not be able to afford a meal, so he steeled himself and took out this Feather God Tribe divine feather.

As A Jiu offered up this Feather God Tribe divine feather, Tianlin glanced at Ye Zhangqing without changing his expression.

Seeing Ye Zhangqing make no move, he then offered a high price: a full ten million immortal crystals.

When that price was announced, everyone present fell silent.

Someone objected and raised a question.

"Heavenly Young Master, how could this broken feather of unknown origin be worth ten million immortal crystals?"

Although everyone could see this feather was extraordinary, after all, no one had seen anything like it before; suddenly being worth ten million immortal crystals is hard for anyone to accept.

However, Tianlin had no intention of explaining, mainly because he himself didn't know how to explain it.

To ask why this divine feather is worth ten million immortal crystals, he himself couldn't even explain it.

Anyway, the authority to set the price lies in his hands; whatever he says, that's the price.

Adding ten million immortal crystals, A Jiu's bid naturally reached an outrageous level.

Even though everyone else present was still red-eyed, they had no money and thus could do nothing.

Someone even suggested that everyone pool their total wealth.

But as soon as that idea was raised, someone immediately refused on the spot.

Come on, how many people are here? If we really did that, you wouldn't just get ten dishes and one soup; you'd get twenty dishes and one soup, and in the end how much could each person get?

Moreover, with so many people wanting to reach a consensus, deciding how much each should contribute and how to split the proceeds afterward is also an unsolvable problem.

So, in the end, this meal was once again pocketed by A Jiu.

Upon learning that he had won the bid again, A Jiu couldn't help but excitedly throw a punch.

He still hadn't realized the problem at all; mainly, that aroma kept making his mind a bit abnormal.

The Shadow Demon Tribe has its own innate divine abilities; Ye Zhangqing having a few small tricks is also normal, right?

It's just about influencing people's minds; who wouldn't know that?

Finally, Ye Zhangqing smiled at A Jiu and immediately ordered someone to invite him into the Tian Family Estate.

Of course, the others accompanying him were also there, but as soon as they entered the compound, they were separated.

A Jiu was taken alone to a small courtyard.

Now that the food's aroma was gone, after a while A Jiu gradually regained his clarity.

His intelligence once again took the upper hand; A Jiu was instantly dazed, thinking, 'Damn, I actually took out the Supreme Deity's divine feather?'

Isn't this basically exposing his own background? As a professional, how could he do something so stupid?

Now his identity is completely exposed, right? It's equivalent to telling everyone directly that he is related to the Feather God Tribe.

Wait………………………

Breaking out in a cold sweat from fright, A Jiu again sensed something was off; since he had already revealed his background, why would the Human Race take no action? They should have captured him by now.

But he's still sitting here just fine—what on earth is the Human Race up to?

A Jiu doesn't believe the Human Race failed to notice the problem; it's so obvious that even a pig would spot it.

The reason the Human Race hasn't acted is definitely not because they're holding back some good trick.

Besides, it was also strange just now; under normal circumstances, he could never possibly produce the Supreme Deity's divine feather.

That was a gift from the Supreme Deity, the most precious thing on him; it's only because he is a Ninth Prince of the Shadow Demon Tribe that he was granted such a treasure.

Ordinary members of the Shadow Demon Tribe basically have no chance to possess it.

He couldn't figure it out for a moment, but before A Jiu could think further, he heard the courtyard door being pushed open, and then Ye Zhangqing strode in.

Facing A Jiu alone, Ye Zhangqing felt no tension at all; after all, setting aside that strange method, A Jiu's true cultivation was still lower than his.

It was only equivalent to the Perfection level of the Immortal Emperor Realm.

Facing someone with lower cultivation than himself, Ye Zhangqing could not possibly be defeated.

As for that strange method, although there's still no clue to it so far, Ye Zhangqing naturally also has a countermeasure.

The Heavenly Palace Celestial Official being unable to deal with it doesn't mean I can't.

So Ye Zhangqing came alone this time; bringing others along would be disadvantageous, possibly getting hit again.

On the contrary, A Jiu, watching Ye Zhangqing walk over slowly, his eyes full of wariness and his mind filled with suspicion, wondered whether this Human Race was really that bold, or if he simply hadn't noticed any problem.

If he were unprepared, then this would be the best opportunity.

Thinking this through, A Jiu silently activated the Shadow Demon Tribe's divine ability; if he could capture Ye Zhangqing, his subsequent actions would proceed smoothly.

But just as he made his move, seeing no change in Ye Zhangqing, all he heard was his light laugh.

"The surrounding spiritual energy seems to have become somewhat different."

Huh???

In an instant he noticed the problem, A Jiu's eyes widened.

But before he could speak, Ye Zhangqing continued.

"Yo, it feels like some force is pulling at me, constantly flowing into my body, very faint, almost imperceptible."

"You can even feel this?"

As soon as he said that, A Jiu went numb—no, how could this kid sense it?

The Shadow Demon Race's divine ability produces fluctuations so weak they're almost nonexistent; even the heavenly officials of the Heavenly Palace feel nothing—how could this kid perceive it? No way.

A Jiu was left dumbfounded by Ye Zhangqing—this shouldn't be happening. Facing A Jiu's confusion, Ye Zhangqing didn't answer, just plopped down opposite him, giving him a half‑smile glance.
