And Ye Cangtian was basically certain that this force was definitely related to Feiyun Pavilion.
First, Feiyun Pavilion had appeared in Jinling City before. Although many of them were destroyed by him, some combat power still remained.
Second, Jifeng Tower was a peak force, and no force dared to provoke it easily, unless the other party also had a peak force backing them.
In the ruins, there were five major peak forces. Excluding Jifeng Tower, Yulong Villa, and Liehuo Yuan, only Feiyun Pavilion and Yanyu Lou remained.
As for Yanyu Lou, they had never shown themselves from beginning to end, so their possibility of coming to Jifeng Tower was very low.
Besides, Ye Cangtian was unwilling to believe that Yanyu Lou would resort to such vicious methods.
This might be because the two sides had not had any dealings, and Ye Cangtian did not want to think the worst of others.
However, this was not important, because regardless of whether it was Yanyu Lou or Feiyun Pavilion, their purpose for coming here was the same: it was definitely for the Four Great Seals.
If that were the case, they would not want to see Ye Cangtian and the others defeated by Jifeng Tower. If that happened, the Four Great Seals would fall into the hands of Jifeng Tower.
And on Jifeng Tower's territory, for them to seize the Four Great Seals would undoubtedly be harder than ascending to heaven.
Therefore, in Ye Cangtian's opinion, if they were to be defeated one day, these people would definitely come to their aid.
At the very least, this way, the Four Great Seals would not remain in Jifeng Tower, and they could still make a move to snatch them from Ye Cangtian and the others in other regions…
Listening to Ye Cangtian's words, Yi Feipeng felt relieved.
Then he looked at Ye Cangtian again and said, "There is another question. Do you really have the Four Great Seals on you? Aren't you afraid of any accidents happening to you?"
"This is not important!"
"What's important is that as long as they think so!"
Ye Cangtian smiled slightly, not giving a definite answer.
This…
Yi Feipeng couldn't help but twitch his mouth at Ye Cangtian's answer. Since the other party was unwilling to say, he couldn't force him.
Tap, tap, tap…
A moment later, the sound of footsteps could be heard.
In the blink of an eye, a guard pushed open the door and entered.
He came directly in front of the three of them, bowed respectfully, and said, "Three sirs, Lord Wan Mingxuan invites you for a hearty drink. We hope you will give us an opportunity and grace us with your presence…"
As the voice fell, a faint smile appeared on Ye Cangtian's face, and he exchanged a glance with Yi Feipeng.
The meaning in their eyes was very simple: Wan Mingxuan had made his preparations, and now was the time for the real show to begin.
On the other side, seeing that neither Ye Cangtian nor the other had any intention of refusing, Ye ZhengHao directly said, "After we tidy ourselves up a bit, we will accompany you."
"Alright, then this humble one will wait outside!"
Hearing this, the guard quickly said, bowed, and respectfully withdrew.
Not long after, they walked out of the inn.
Outside the inn, three luxurious carriages were parked, looking very spacious and comfortable.
According to Yi Feipeng's whispered introduction, Jifeng Tower had only ten such carriages, which were specifically used to receive the most distinguished guests.
To this, Ye Cangtian merely smiled slightly.
Whether there was sincerity was not represented by the luxury of the carriages.
Soon, escorted by the guards, the three of them arrived at the grand hall on the third floor of Jifeng Tower.
Upon entering the hall, Ye Cangtian couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
On the way, using his powerful mental strength, he had detected many formidable auras.
These auras were extremely hidden, and they maintained just the right distance, basically at the limit of a Heavenly rank expert's perception.
This showed that Wan Mingxuan had meticulously planned this to prevent Ye Cangtian and the others from detecting these people.
…
Jifeng Grand Hall.
The hall was exceptionally magnificent, with one hundred and eight dragon-entwined pillars inside, exuding an imposing aura.
Currently, besides some ordinary guards, the only person in the hall was Wan Mingxuan, who was seated in the main position.
Seeing this situation, Ye Cangtian couldn't help but mutter to himself, thinking that Wan Mingxuan must have considered the position of Tower Lord to be within his grasp!
Otherwise, with the Tower Lord still alive, how could he dare to sit so casually in the main seat of the Jifeng Grand Hall!
On the other side, Wan Mingxuan's gaze swept over Ye Cangtian and the others one by one, and a very enthusiastic smile appeared on his face.
"It was quite awkward the last time we met, so this time, I am hosting this banquet to express my apologies and also to hope to reconnect with all of you…"
Hearing Wan Mingxuan's words, Ye ZhengHao cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness!"
Ye Cangtian, standing beside him, looked over and said, "If I remember correctly, you said you would give us an explanation. Have you caught the real culprit this time?"
This…
With just Ye Cangtian's sentence, a hint of anger flashed in Wan Mingxuan's eyes.
Was his intention not clear enough?
He hadn't said anything about giving them an explanation today, yet the other party was deliberately bringing up an uncomfortable topic. Was this intentional?
Thinking this in his heart, Wan Mingxuan forced a smile and said, "I am truly sorry, Jifeng Tower is still diligently investigating, and there are no clues at the moment…
However, please rest assured, sirs, that I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation as promised!"
Hearing the other party's words, Ye Cangtian's lips curved slightly, revealing a look of disdain.
Since the other party had said so, he couldn't say much more.
After all, they had an important objective for this visit, which was to see the Tower Lord.
If they angered the other party and he obstructed them, it would ruin their plans.
On the other side, seeing that Ye Cangtian was no longer looking for trouble, Wan Mingxuan's mood gradually calmed down.
The next moment, he looked at the other party and said, "Brother ZhengHao, I won't beat around the bush. I have always admired the actions of Liehuo Yuan, and it is my great fortune to get acquainted with you today! May I know if we can further our relationship?"
Hmm?
Ye ZhengHao looked at the other party with a puzzled expression and said, "May I know what you mean by 'further'?"
Upon hearing this, Wan Mingxuan smiled slightly and then clapped his hands.
As the sound fell, the sound of light footsteps could be heard.
Turning his head, he saw over ten alluring and stunningly beautiful women. These women were not ordinary people; they all possessed a certain aura.
The weakest among them had reached the Profound level.
As the ten women approached with spring-like smiles, Wan Mingxuan's face revealed a smug smile. These were all handpicked by him, and each of them was almost perfect in his eyes.
He looked at Ye ZhengHao and smiled, "Brother ZhengHao, let me introduce you. These are all famous beauties from our Jifeng Tower. What do you think of them?" m..oΓg
Uh…
This is the honey trap!
As the words fell, Ye Cangtian's mouth twitched instantly as he understood Wan Mingxuan's trick.
He was actually a little worried, as Ye ZhengHao was still young and unmarried. Whether he could resist the allure was still an unknown factor for him.
Yi Feipeng, who was thinking the same things, also had a change in expression.
His face immediately darkened. Wan Mingxuan was willing to resort to seduction using beauty to facilitate this cooperation; he was truly unscrupulous and had disgraced Jifeng Tower!
However, neither Ye Cangtian nor he said anything more, leaving the decision entirely to Ye ZhengHao.
On the other side, Ye ZhengHao's gaze swept over the ten or so women. Perhaps he compared these women to Dongfang Mingyue in his heart and found them lacking.
Or perhaps it was because he was a martial arts fanatic, and he remained unmoved by these women.
The next moment, he looked at Wan Mingxuan and said, "Indeed, these women are truly worthy of their reputation…"
