<h4>Volume 1 Chapter 1205 Transaction</h4>


    In just a short moment, one of the guards arrived at the main peak of the Sword Sect, the Thousand Secrets Peak, where the Sword Sect''s Sect Master cultivated. The other guard stayed outside the mountain gate and continued to hold the mountain gate.


    "What, Nangong Chenming?"


    Standing on the peak was an old man named Bai Ran. This old man was the Sword Sect''s Sect Master, Duke Hong Jian. When he heard Nangong Chenming''s name, his eyes couldn''t help but sink as he let out a surprised sound.


    An old man stood beside the old man. He wore a white coat and had a straight nose. However, he looked like a skeleton. This man was the brother of Duke Hong Jiangong, Liu Wu.


    Liu Wu rolled his eyes.


    "Right now, the internal struggle within the empire is at its most intense. Senior Brother, it''s better to sit on the sidelines and watch."


    Hearing that, Duke Hong Jian nodded his head slowly, but he still did not give an answer, as if he was still pondering in his heart.


    "Looks like Senior Brother doesn''t want to give up this opportunity."


    The skinny old man chuckled when he saw this. His eyes were drooping, but they were full of spirit.


    "Although our Sword Sect can also be considered a first-rate power in the Purple Cloud Empire, it is still a bit weaker than the entire empire. If we can assist a prudent master to ascend to the throne, we naturally have to seize this opportunity, but …"


    Duke Hong and Liu Wu looked at each other and smiled meaningfully.


    "Tell the Fourth Prince that it''s inconvenient for me to meet visitors asionally. Let hime back another day."


    The guard of the mountain gate epted the order and told Kong Jian Gong''s words to Kong Yun and Nangong Chen Ming. The two of them couldn''t help but frown. Nangong Chenming couldn''t help but clench his fists tightly behind him. The identity of the Purple Cloud Empire''s prince and his dignity had actually been rejected. Even Nangong Chenming''s calm temperament couldn''t help but feel a little angry at this moment.


    "Since that''s the case, the two of us wille back another day."


    Kong Yun cupped his fists andughed. Then, he grabbed Nangong Chenming''s arm and walked out. It was just a tactful rejection to say that Feng Han was idental. How could he be injured by Feng Han at the realm of Swordmaster Hong? Wasn''t this a big joke?


    "Kong Yun, what are you pulling me for? Do you believe that old man Hong Jiangong''s nonsense?!" After walking a thousand meters away, Nangong Chenming grabbed Kong Yunqi and coaxed. The anger in his eyes still hadn''t faded away.


    Seeing this, Kong Yun shook his head and smiled bitterly.


    "Swordmaster Hong clearly has a better reason to refuse you, but he still uses such an obvious lie to stop you. Don''t you think there''s something wrong with this?"


    As Kong Yun''s voice fell, Nangong Chenming couldn''t help but be stunned.


    "You mean …?"


    Kong Yun nodded and said, ''"Swordmaster Hong, an old man who has lived for 10,000 years, naturally wouldn''t trust a person so easily. I guess the reason why he did this is to test how much you, the fourth prince of the Violet Cloud Empire, are worth his help. If you really make a fuss at the mountain gate just now, then the matter will probably really be over."


    Kong Yun moved sideways under the weeping willows. The evening breeze shook the lush willows and gently stroked Kong Yun''s cheek. In an instant, Kong Yun recalled the performance of Swordmaster Hong in front of the hall. This old thief was already at the Divine King Realm. If the empire helped him increase his strength, why did he still look so pale? He refused to answer for a long time. Could it be …


    Kong Yun sank into deep thought under the tree. Nangong Chenming, who was at the side, was bored. He squatted down with the horse grass in his mouth. He didn''t dare to disturb Kong Yun. It was originally a ck cloud covering the moon at night, but the faint moonlight instantly disappeared. Waves of heavenly thunder faintly rose from the ck clouds. The heavenly thunder was gloomy, and the evil wind roared. Everything in the world bowed before it. Nangong Chenming, who was already spoiled, had never seen such a phenomenon before. He hurriedly pulled Kong Yun''s hand and asked crazily.


    "Brother Kong, Brother Kong, look at what''s going on in the distant sky. Could it be that someone is going to cross the tribtion?"


    Kong Yun, who was disturbed, regained his senses. The silver dragon formed by the thunder in the dark clouds continued to shuttle through the distance, and the moonlight could hardly illuminate the earth. Could it be that there really were experts who could ovee tribtion? Kong Yun was somewhat tempted. Although he wasn''t strong enough, being able to watch experts cross tribtion from afar would surely be of some help to him in the future. Kong Yun was about to take a look, but he didn''t want the silver dragon in the ck clouds to howl. A dark purple light pierced through the sky and scattered the ck clouds. It howled towards the Sword Sect behind Kong Yun. The nts and vegetation that the evil light passed through were all withered, and the water in the river was cut off. All living beings couldn''t help but sigh. Nangong Chenming, who was standing at the side, was so scared that he was speechless that he was about to run backwards, but he was firmly bounced back.


    "Kong, Brother Kong, look."


    Nangong Chenming''s shout caused Kong Yun to turn around. He looked at a dark purple barrier in front of him. Waves of green smoke could be seen everywhere he touched. Kong Yun had never seen such a barrier before. This series of phenomena, coupled with what had happened today, made Kong Yun suddenly realize. With a loud shout, he pulled Nangong Chenming towards the main hall of the Sword Sect.


    Along the way, the Sword Sect sentry posts were filled with debris, causing Kong Yun to panic. In order to enter the hall, he heard the sound first. A burst of wildughter rang out, causing the smell to tremble. Kong Yun pulled Nangong Chenming, who had been shaking like a sieve, to the side of the hall to observe the situation through the cracks in the door.


    Hong Jianxian was already surrounded in the hall. What was shocking was that the second inmand of the grand Sword Sect was standing in front of Hong Jianxian. Beside him stood a strange person. He had an enchanting figure and proud two peaks. He was even more naked. Strangely, he spat out a man''s voice, causing him to feel somewhat nauseated. Everyone stayed with Duke Hong Jian. The battle was on the verge of breaking out.


    Seeing this, Kong Yun thought to himself, "Someone in the Sword Sect is rebelling!"


    "Something''s wrong!" Kong Yun was thinking of an expedient n. He had to help Swordmaster Hong, otherwise the original Swordsmanship manual would be useless. Just as he was anxious, the artifact spirit''s voice sounded.


    "Kong Yun, there is a very powerful formation aura on the side peak."


    Hearing this, Kong Yun''s powerful soul force spread to the side peak. However, just as he touched it, Kong Yun could feel a powerful force blocking his soul force''s path. This power was the spirit artifact''s spirit formation. Furthermore, Kong Yun was very sure that this was a trap formation. Furthermore, there were several experts inside the trap formation at this moment!


    Kong Yun guessed that the person trapped in the array should be Sword Master Hong''s trusted aides in the Sword Sect. Through Liu Wu''s rtionship with Sword Master Hong and his status in the entire Sword Sect, it was not difficult to deceive these people to the side of the peak. If a huge array was set up in advance, everything would be natural.


    Thinking of this, Kong Yun couldn''t help but clench his teeth.


    Inside the hall, Duke Hong Jiangong did not seem to be panicking in the face of the encirclement of several people. After all, his own strength was there.


    "Liu Wu, you must have been preparing for this day for a long time."


    Liu Wu, who was standing opposite Swordmaster Hong, heard this and a cold smile appeared on his withered face. It was especially frightening against the moonlight.


    "Hehe, Duke Hong Jian, the position of Sword Sect''s Sect Master should have belonged to me. Back then, when we broke through the secret realm together, I blocked the full power attack of the God King Demonic Beast on your behalf, but you took the opportunity to seize it. What an opportunity!"


    Liu Wu''s words were forceful, and his eyes seemed to be spitting out mes. Obviously, his hatred towards Duke Hong Jian had reached its peak.


    "That''s why you''ve had a heart demon since that day. The reason why you''ve been staying by my side to assist me in bing a counselor must be to wait for today, right?"


    Swordmaster Hong put his hands behind his back, as if he recalled the memories from back then. The corner of his eyes couldn''t help but be a little wet. However, he didn''t exin too much. Things had already reached this point, and there was only one battle left!


    However, just as Duke Hong was about to make a move, Duke Hong Jian felt a slight sensationing from his skin. Duke Hong Jian''s eyes couldn''t help but tilt as a voice sounded in Duke Hong''s ears.


    "Sect Leader Hong, all you have to do now is stall these people. I am confident that I can rescue those people trapped on the side of the mountain."


    "Who are you? Why are you helping me?"


    "Haha, after this is done, I just want to borrow your Sword Sect''s original Sword Dao Secret Scripture to read."


    Hearing this, Duke Hong''s expression twitched. Originally, the Sword Dao Secret Scripture was the foundation of the Sword Sect. Logically speaking, no outsiders were allowed to observe it. However, the situation was critical, so he could not hesitate any longer.


    "Alright! I promise!"


    At this moment, Kong Yun was naturally the one who was involved in the Hong Jian Bus. With his powerful soul force sound transmission, Liu Wu and the others did not notice him.


    With Duke Hong''s assurance, Kong Yun''s lips curled into a smile. He asked Nangong Chenming to find a ce to hide first. Then, his figure shed to the side of the peak. He ced his figure in the air. Kong Yun began to carefully examine the huge trap array in front of him. It was like a giant golden rao that covered almost the entire side of the mountain. It looked exceptionally beautiful in the dark night.


    Kong Yun couldn''t help but frown. From this point of view, Kong Yun didn''t find any clues to break through the Golden Rao Trap Formation. Fortunately, he still had the artifact spirit in his body.


    "Tool spirit, it''s up to you." Kong Yun sent a voice transmission to the artifact spirit.


    There was no one around, and the artifact spirit directly revealed its true body. The Nine Dragons Radiant Heaven Cauldron appeared in front of Kong Yun, and the Nine Dragons Radiant Heaven Cauldron pounced towards Jin Rao as if it had an independent consciousness.


    Seeing this, Kong Yun was extremely nervous. Liu Wu was already on par with Swordmaster Hong. Adding on the enchanting woman beside him, he didn''t know how long Swordmaster Hong would be able to withstand it.


    Just as he thought of this, an explosion sounded from within the hall of the Thousand Secrets Peak. Two figures shed out of the hall at the same time. The seals on their hands continuously transformed into attacks, and they didn''t hold back at all.


    Kong Yun was helpless against this. At this moment, he was not able to easily join in a battle of this level. A single carelessness would result in an irreversible cmity. However, Kong Yun''s figure was still discovered by that beautiful figure.


    "Keke … Little brother, what are you doing here?" The enchanting woman slowlynded in front of Kong Yun, her hand covering her lips and smiling at Kong Yun.


    Kong Yun took a closer look. This woman''s facial features were exquisite, but her figure was unprecedentedly fierce. A strong desire to conquer couldn''t help but surge into his heart, but was strongly suppressed by Kong Yun. At the same time, he red fiercely at this enchanting woman.


    "What a powerful charm technique." Kong Yun thought to himself that if it weren''t for his firm will, he would have been lost in just a single sentence.


    Seeing Kong Yun''s silence, a surprised look shed across the corner of the enchanting woman''s eyes. She had full confidence in her charm technique, but today, she had actually lost her hand in front of a youth. She felt a little resentful in her heart.


    "Little brother … don''t be so angry. If there''s anything you need to say to big sister …"


    …


    A charming and numb voice rang out continuously, as if it was guiding Kong Yun into the charm trap he had set up. However, Kong Yun was not stupid. He knew that if this charming woman continued to speak, he would really be hanging in the wind.
