"Shh, keep your voice down. We just need to wait here. Don't get too close."

The guard led the crowd, walked ten feet forward, and then stopped.

Xu Dong raised his head and looked forward.

I found that in a main hall, there were many high-level officials of the Heavenly Artifact Alliance, and the leader of the alliance was sitting at the top.

His temples are all white, his eyes are piercing, and not a trace of true energy is exposed on his body.

But sitting there, he seemed to be in harmony with heaven and earth, and no one could ignore his presence.

And next to him was Zhang Xuling.

Zhang Xuling is dressed in white, sitting upright, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes. He has the air of a young man in troubled times.

On Zhang Xuling's side, there is the Ziyun Fairy, who is peerless and charming, with an unparalleled moon face. She is dressed in a lavender water-patterned cloud robe, which makes her temperament even more ethereal.

The two of them didn't notice the movement here and were talking with the alliance leader.

"Mr. Zhang, our Heavenly Weapon Alliance and the Zhang family have always been on good terms. If you have any questions, just tell us!" the alliance leader said with a smile on his face.

"I am here to ask you, the leader of the alliance, to help Fairy Ziyun with something." Zhang Xuling said in a sincere tone.

"Help Ziyun do something?"

The alliance leader was stunned for a moment, then he laughed dumbly and said, "Ziyun is my direct disciple. If she has any difficulties, just talk to me directly. I will do my best, why do I need to invite Mr. Zhang here?"

"Because this matter is not trivial, Fairy Ziyun brought me here." Zhang Xuling said with a smile.

"Oh? Mr. Zhang might as well come and listen."

The alliance leader touched his chin, a little more curious.

"It's like this. Fairy Ziyun is going to refine a spiritual treasure and needs to find a monk who has mastered the law of devouring to assist, so I would like to ask the alliance leader if there is a suitable candidate." Zhang Xuling said straight to the point.

"The Law of Devouring?"

The alliance leader originally had some confidence.

After all, he is the talker of the Heavenly Artifact Alliance and has countless resources at his disposal, far beyond what ordinary people imagine.

But how

I never expected that he would actually make such a request...

The Law of Devouring... This is one of the extremely rare high-level laws!

He had never even encountered such a monk.

"Mr. Zhang, it's not that I won't help you, it's just that this matter... is as difficult as going to heaven." The alliance leader frowned tightly and said.

"With the alliance leader's vision and experience, he has never seen a monk who controls the law of devouring?"

Zhang Xuling's eyes darkened.

"No."

The leader shook his head.

Zhang Xuling and Ziyun looked at each other, with a look of embarrassment flashing across their faces.

Even the leader of the alliance doesn't have such connections. With just the two of them, they probably won't be able to find one for another seven or eight years.

"Ahem..."

Zhang Xuling suddenly coughed slightly and winked at Fairy Ziyun.

Fairy Ziyun bit her lip, remained silent for a moment, and then nodded slightly.

The two seemed to have reached some kind of agreement.

Then, Zhang Xuling spoke directly and said, "Well... Mr. Alliance Leader, to tell you the truth, I know someone who controls the Devouring Law."

"oh?"

The alliance leader narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who is it?"

"It is Xu Fei who joined the Heavenly Artifact Alliance and won fourth place in this assessment."

The leader fell silent immediately.

He still has some impressions of this Xu Fei.

The basics of weapon refining are pretty good, and the application of various techniques is very smooth.

"Since Mr. Zhang knows that this person has the Devouring Law..."

The alliance leader couldn't help but wonder, "Why don't you go talk to him? With the reputations of you and Ziyun, it shouldn't be difficult to convince him, right?"

"This this……"

Zhang Xuling smiled bitterly, "To be honest with you, Alliance Leader, we have also talked to Xu Fei, but no matter how much we begged, Xu Fei seemed helpless."

"This person is not good at sociability and is a bit lazy, so..."

He paused before he finished speaking, but the meaning he wanted to express was already very obvious.

"Why?" .??.

The leader frowned.

Other senior officials of the Heavenly Artifact Alliance were also puzzled.

Logically speaking, using laws to help others refine weapons is a very common thing.

You know, they have also hired some monks with special laws.

Apart from losing some real energy, those monks did not suffer any substantial damage.

So, this Xu Fei, there is no reason not to agree?

Moreover, these two are extraordinary people. One is the young master of the Zhang family, and the other is Fairy Ziyun, a heavenly weapon master.

If you can make friends with him, you will definitely benefit from it.

"Master Zhang is right."

At this time, Fairy Ziyun suddenly spoke and gave a wry smile, "I have invited Xu Fei several times, and even promised that I will be rewarded generously when things are done, but he... still refused, and seemed not to care about me.

Any doubts."

As soon as this statement came out, many senior officials of the Heavenly Artifact Alliance frowned and felt a little displeased.

"This Xu Fei doesn't know how to praise him!"

"Yes, it's just a piece of cake. Why doesn't he agree?"

"Perhaps I am jealous of Fairy Ziyun's talent and worried that she will refine a higher-level spiritual treasure, so I deliberately refused to agree."

"Then this man is really a man of small means!"

Their impression of Xu Dong couldn't help but be extremely bad.

And now, not far away.

"Pfft", there was a chuckle.

Everyone is talking attentively,

I didn't notice Xu Dong and others standing in the distance. When I looked at them, I was stunned for a moment.

And Fairy Ziyun also changed her face.

Zhang Xuling also felt guilty, as if he had been caught doing something bad, but he soon returned to normal.

"Wu Qing, you guys are here!" The alliance leader waved to Wu Qing and said with a smile.

"I've met the leader!"

Wu Qing walked over and bowed respectfully to the alliance leader.

Xu Dong and Yan Chun also followed closely behind.

Xu Dong still had a smile on his face, as if he was sarcastically.

"what are you laughing at?"

Seeing Xu Dong's smile, Zhang Xuling felt unhappy and thought again of the incident that happened when he was disturbed in the purple bamboo forest that day.

"Ahem..."

Xu Dong coughed twice, looked at Zhang Xuling with a half-smile, and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, didn't I disturb your tryst with Fairy Ziyun when we were in the Purple Bamboo Forest? Are you guilty of speaking ill of me behind my back like this?"

"What a tryst, what bad words are said about you, it's all nonsense!"

Zhang Xuling snorted coldly and said with a serious expression, "What I said is the truth!"

"Moreover, you did reject Fairy Ziyun's proposals several times."

Xu Dong turned his eyes and ignored Zhang Xuling, but looked at Fairy Ziyun and said, "Fairy Ziyun, I have rejected you, but the Devouring Law is mine. I can refuse if I want to. Is there a problem with this?

"

Fairy Ziyun hesitated for a moment, bit her red lips and said, "There is no problem."

After a pause, she added, "However, as members of the Heavenly Weapon Alliance, we should help each other, so that we can go further."

"Instead of being like you, just because you are worried that other people's skill in weapon refining exceeds yours..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Dong suddenly sneered, "More than you? Fairy Ziyun, you think too highly of yourself, and you underestimate me, Xu Fei!"
