Chapter 2280 Selling Secrets
However, Luo Tian ignored her completely and pinched his chin, saying, "If I give everyone in Tianyuan City a set of these Dao weapons, wouldn't we be as good as the Wangu Pavilion?"
Brother Yun, who was standing by, heard this and after a moment of contemplation, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it won't work!"
"Oh? What's wrong?" Luo Tian frowned.
Brother Yun sighed and said, "Although the people of Tianyuan City are talented, they are still too young and their realms are too low! The most important thing is that Tianyuan City has almost no martial arts inheritance after the Immortal Emperor! In this respect, it is far behind the Wangu Pavilion!"
Luo Tian nodded after hearing this and said, "Yes, I wouldn't have thought of that if you hadn't told me! It would be great if we could get some top-level inheritances at this auction... preferably from the Dao Realm. Get a lot so they can slowly cultivate!"
Brother Yun thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, given time, we'll definitely be able to surpass Wangu Pavilion!"
"Let's do it!" Luo Tian said excitedly.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Dongfang Li felt speechless.
Are these two guys in front of me too confident?
In just a few words, he actually started planning to rival the Wangu Pavilion?
The key point is that Luo Tian, this ignorant young man, thinks so.
Why would this old friend of my ancestor say this?
Could it be that these two people are addicted to humor?
Just when she was full of confusion, You Huang beside her suddenly said, "Miss Dongfang!"
"Hmm? Lord Youhuang!" Dongfang Li hurriedly bowed to Youhuang.
She knew that Youhuang's talent for deduction far surpassed hers.
As long as the other party is willing, he will sooner or later become a top figure in Tianyan Sect.
She naturally respects such people.
You Huang waved her hand and said, "No need to be so polite, just call me You Huang!"
Dongfang Li nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Youhuang!"
You Huang: ...
Dongfang Li also came back to his senses at this moment, smiled awkwardly, and said, "By the way, what did you want to say just now?"
After hearing this, You Huang finally spoke, "I've always had a question I don't understand! Senior Dongfang Yan, he clearly deduced that the Impossible Heaven Realm was about to be destroyed, so why didn't he take you away with him, but instead trapped himself in this space?"
Dongfang Li was slightly startled, then lowered his head and said, "Actually, I don't know the specific reason for this matter! I once tried to ask the ancestor, but the ancestor was very secretive about it, never willing to tell us clearly, and strictly forbade us to deduce it!"
"However, based on some clues from the past, we have a rough idea of what happened!"
Youhuang immediately looked over curiously.
Dongfang Li said calmly, "The ancestor must have touched some kind of taboo and was cursed! But for some reason, that curse is ineffective in the lawless realm!"
"However, once our ancestor or the bloodline of our Dongfang family leaves the Lawless Heaven, they will be retaliated by the curse! Our clan has had several gifted young geniuses who wanted to make a name for themselves with their top-notch deductive abilities! But almost every one of them met a tragic death soon after leaving the Lawless Heaven!"
"The one who held out the longest only lived for three years!"
You Huang's pupils shrank, and he said in surprise: "This..."
She was extremely shocked.
In this world, there is actually a curse that can trap the Dongfang family, a family that is best at deducing the secrets of heaven, in the lawless heaven.
This is amazing.
Dongfang Li sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do. The Dongfang family's ancestral precepts say that anyone who toyed with the secrets of heaven would always be retaliated against by them! From ancient times to the present, whether inside or outside the Tianyan Sect, many people have been cursed after deducing things they shouldn't have touched. However, unlike our Dongfang family, their entire bloodline has been retaliated against!"
Hearing this, You Huang took a deep breath, then looked at Brother Yun and said, "Senior, you and Senior Dongfang are old friends. Do you know anything about this?"
Brother Yun twirled his beard and said, "Actually, what this little girl said is probably true! Dongfang Yan, that kid, once explored a secret realm with others and found a fragment of ancient scripture! That fragment was extremely powerful, so powerful that it even captivated a group of Dao Breaking Realm experts!"
"But unfortunately, the scripture was incomplete, preventing them from fully cultivating. At this time, Dongfang Yan, who didn't know his own limitations, volunteered to deduce the complete scripture for them, or find the whereabouts of the remaining scriptures!"
You Huang suddenly realized, "So...he suffered a backlash?"
Brother Yun nodded and said, "That's right! But he probably didn't suffer the backlash of Tianji, but the revenge of the owner of the scripture!"
"What? The owner of the scripture?" Dongfang Li looked at Brother Yun in shock.
This was the first time she heard such a secret concerning her family.
Brother Yun sighed and said, "That's right! The owner of the scripture deliberately scattered the fragments across the world in order to achieve a certain goal! But Dongfang Yan saw through his plan, which made that being extremely angry!"
"However, due to the limitations of the Dao Realm, that guy didn't dare to show up easily. So he had to use special means to kill your ancestor and the others who visited the secret realm. This was to shut them up completely and allow his plan to continue!"
"As a result, everyone who explored the secret realm that time died tragically on the spot! Only Dongfang Yan, relying on his own deduction skills, avoided danger and sought safety, concealed his true intentions, and escaped all the way to the lawless heaven, thus surviving!"
Dongfang Li heard this and murmured, "So that's how it is..."
Meanwhile, You Huang suddenly frowned and said, "It's one thing for the five holy cities to be wary of the Unlawful Heaven Realm, but why would a Dao Realm expert also be wary of the Unlawful Heaven Realm?"
Brother Yun glanced at her and said, "You can't guess it?"
You Huang suddenly realized, "You mean to say that there are actually Dao Realm experts behind the Impossible Heaven Realm?"
Brother Yun nodded and said, "Of course it is, and he is not just an ordinary Dao Realm expert!"
"This..." For a moment, the two were shocked again.
At this moment……
Boom!
Suddenly, the sound of bells rang out from the south of Wu Ri Mingdu City.
Immediately afterwards, a phantom of a Vermillion Bird was seen soaring into the sky.
After the phantom of the Vermillion Bird appeared, countless people instantly headed towards the direction of the phantom.
"Huh? What's going on?" Luo Tian, who was standing aside, suddenly asked in surprise.
Dongfang Li said: "It's the Suzaku lineage!"
You Huang was surprised and asked, "Nangong family of Tianyan Sect? What do they mean by this?"
Dongfang Li said: "It should be selling secrets!"
"Selling secrets?" You Huang was stunned.
Dongfang Li explained, "This is one of the ways the Nangong family makes money. They deduce various secrets, such as where rare elixirs are found, where ancient treasures are found, where secret realms appear, and so on. They then sell these secrets in exchange for wealth!"
Luo Tian, who was standing by, blinked and said, "Can it be so profitable? Then I'll deduce one and see if I can sell it."
As he spoke, he pretended to deduce.
"Stop!" The three people beside him shouted in unison.
While we were talking...
hum!
Eight more Vermillion Birds took off into the sky.
"What?" Dongfang Li's face changed instantly when he saw this.
