Chapter 32: This is… a Saint Grade Formation

"City Lord, please come in." Li Yun extended his hand to invite. He had a long-standing friendship with the Great Wilderness City Lord. Even before they met, this City Lord had already sent a Heavenly Grade treasure as a gift. His generosity was boundless. If he could sell some things today, he might make a big profit!

"I dare not, I dare not." The Great Wilderness City Lord shook his head repeatedly, bowing respectfully. "Senior, please go ahead."

"Hehe." Li Yun chuckled lightly without saying much, turning around and returning to the Heavenly Secret Pavilion. The Great Wilderness City Lord followed closely behind.

As they entered the hall, Liu Chengxue had already prepared two cups of tea and walked over. Seeing this scene, the Great Wilderness City Lord felt a chill. Sure enough, Han Feng didn't lie to him. The core disciple of the Great Luo Sword Sect, being a maid here, and the fact that the Great Luo Sect Master had visited without showing any objection—what did this represent? It meant that the Great Luo Sect Master had also tacitly approved of this matter.

"Senior, please have some tea." Liu Chengxue walked to Li Yun's side and said respectfully.

"Thank you." Li Yun took the tea and expressed his thanks.

Although Liu Chengxue temporarily resided here, he had never treated her as a servant. Besides, Heavenly Secret Pavilion did not need servants. Everything could be done with just a thought. In Heavenly Secret Pavilion, he was like a creator, not saying that his wishes would come true, but absolutely no one could match him.

"Senior is so polite," Liu Chengxue felt extremely joyful. Not many people could make the senior express gratitude, and she seemed to be the first since she knew him.

Then, Liu Chengxue approached the Great Wilderness City Lord. Before she could get close, the City Lord hastily stood up and said in a panic, "Fairy, there's no need for this. I can do it by myself."

The Pavilion Master of Heavenly Secret Pavilion could ignore Liu Chengxue, but he dared not ignore her. After all, she was a core disciple of the Great Luo Sword Sect, with an incredibly noble status. Moreover, the Great Luo Sect Master supported her, making her much stronger than a mere City Lord.

Liu Chengxue smiled and didn't take it seriously. After placing the tea cup down, she turned and left. Once she left, Li Yun opened the Great Wilderness City Lord's interface. Glancing over it, he instantly understood what the City Lord was thinking.

With a sigh, he softly spoke, "I already know the purpose of the City Lord's visit. If you want Heavenly Secret Pavilion to shelter Great Wilderness City, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."

"What?" The Great Wilderness City Lord was shocked, his face turning pale. His hand holding the tea cup trembled, causing tea to spill. How did the senior already know before he spoke?

"This…" The Great Wilderness City Lord forced an ugly smile and weakly asked, "Could it be that the senior looks down on this impoverished and remote Great Wilderness City?"

"Not at all," Li Yun shook his head.

Great Wilderness City was where he lived and depended on. To be honest, he wanted to agree to the City Lord's request. He didn't want Great Wilderness City to be destroyed by others someday. However, his current strength was insufficient, and Heavenly Secret Pavilion could only protect itself. It was impossible to take this step.

Rather than waiting for the Great Wilderness City Lord to ask, he decided to reject him in advance. So that when Great Wilderness City faced destruction one day, he wouldn't be willing but powerless.

"Why then?" The Great Wilderness City Lord stood up, extremely excited, and said, "To be honest, Senior, I came prepared this time with a substantial gift, a family heirloom. I brought it to personally present to the senior… As long as senior…"

"The Ten Thousand Years Old Eternal Wood?" Li Yun spoke again.

"Gah…?" The previously talkative Great Wilderness City Lord seemed to have been choked. His face turned red, not knowing what to say. Whatever he wanted to say or do, the senior in front of him had accurately guessed the next step, one step ahead of him. What kind of situation was this? Even after living for hundreds of years, the Great Wilderness City Lord encountered such a thing for the first time.

"Senior, the Ten Thousand Years Old Eternal Wood is…"

"I know. It's a material for refining Saint Grade Weapons, right?" Li Yun smiled.

He had just checked the system. The value of the Ten Thousand Years Old Eternal Wood was not low, totaling nine thousand eight hundred Secret Points, even more expensive than a Holy Lord Grade weapon. This indicated its value.

"This… It seems...it was just a wishful thinking." The Great Wilderness City Lord's heart turned cold.

Saint Grade materials were indeed rare and tempting for many Saints, but in the current situation, it was evident that the Pavilion Master of Heavenly Secret Pavilion was not moved. He had overestimated the value of Saint Grade materials and underestimated the Pavilion Master of Heavenly Secret Pavilion.

Just as the Great Wilderness City Lord was about to excuse himself with a bitter smile, Li Yun spoke again.

"City Lord, you may have misunderstood. I only said that I won't shelter Great Wilderness City, but I didn't say we can't make a deal. Currently, I have something for sale. Would the City Lord be interested?"

"Hmm?" The Great Wilderness City Lord, who had already taken a step back, forcefully halted, his eyes lighting up with surprise. "May I ask, senior, what is it?"

"It's just a formation," Li Yun chuckled, lifted his palm, and a piece of cloth appeared with intricate symbols and various circuits. As soon as it appeared, Li Yun casually tossed it to the Great Wilderness City Lord.

The Great Wilderness City Lord took the cloth, examined it carefully, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He raised his head, struggling to say, "Senior, is this… a Saint Grade formation?"
