Chapter 1024 Brother Long, here to show your face again?
The outskirts of Tiandou City.
The sun hangs high in the sky.
The Tang Sect special team retracted their flying soul tool and landed.
As an elder of Shrek Academy, Gong Changlong easily passed through the main gate of Tiandou City with his pass token.
"Heavily guarded, things are much stricter now." Beibei glanced at a group of soldiers guarding the city gate.
Clad in heavy armor and wielding steel swords, the atmosphere was grim.
So much so that there were no servants or peddlers near the city gate.
"Since we're at war, we naturally need to work on our preparations, lest one day we can't even command the army anymore," Gong Changlong sneered.
In his perception, these heavily armored soldiers were all at the fifth level of cultivation, and there wasn't even a single sixth-level one.
His cultivation level was decent, but what he held in his hand was merely a refined steel blade, not a soul tool.
"That's strange. Princess Vina clearly ordered a large number of soul tools from us, so why aren't the soldiers here equipped with them?" Bei Bei said in a low voice so that the Tang Clan members could hear her.
"I'm afraid Tiandou City isn't as peaceful as it seems," He Caitou chuckled. He subconsciously reached out to touch his bald head, but instead touched a layer of stiff stubble.
difficult to handle.
Jiang Nannan reached out and grasped Ye Nanxiao's large hand, her brows furrowed with worry.
Ye Nanxiao patted the beauty's hand, indicating that she shouldn't panic and that he was there for her.
Two clones appeared silently in the group, then disappeared into the not-too-crowded crowd.
Princess Vina is probably in big trouble.
The soldiers guarding the city gate were very likely not her men.
As for those soldiers, they were most likely conservatives.
Only the conservatives refuse to accept the theory of soul guides to this day, believing it to be a distorted and unreliable external force.
"The wheels of time keep rolling in, and those who can't keep up are destined to be left behind or crushed," Tang Ya suddenly remarked.
The Tang Clan, too, struggled to integrate with soul tools, leading to its rapid decline.
"Why are there soldiers guarding the entrance to the Tiandou Hotel?" Xu Sanshi frowned, looking at the entrance of the hotel across the street.
A small team of five people stood at the entrance of the Tiandou Hotel, watching travelers entering and leaving the hotel. If they encountered any suspicious individuals, they would approach them for questioning.
"Let's visit the Tianlongmen branch in Tiandou City first. We can talk about the hotel later," Beibei said.
Gong Changlong had no objections; he was there simply to take sides and provide support.
These little guys are very opinionated, and his cultivation level is only at level 92, barely touching the threshold of level 93. Perhaps these little guys don't need his protection.
His beast spirit's intuition vaguely told him that Ye Nanxiao was hiding his strength and was actually very dangerous!
As a long-established aristocratic family, Tianlongmen's branch is located on the most bustling street, occupying the best location on the entire street and taking up a full third of the area.
"Tiger bone body-forging powder, Azure Flame Eagle Feather, Soul Master to Title Douluo body-forging manual, Golden Hammer, Tianlong Sect sells quite a lot of things, their business is quite extensive." Ye Nanxiao picked up the jar of tiger bone body-forging powder with interest.
"Manager, how much inventory do you have left?"
A middle-aged man dressed in a well-fitting purple-gold robe came forward to greet them.
"Sir, you have a good eye! This jar of tiger bone body-strengthening powder not only has the effect of body-strengthening and tempering, but also invigorates yang and replenishes qi! Strengthening the foundation and nourishing the source! However, this tiger bone powder is made from the fine bones of dozens of tiger-type soul beasts, so our establishment only has three jars! Each jar is worth 500,000 gold soul coins!" the middle-aged man in purple robes said with a smile.
Five hundred thousand gold soul coins, a blend of the essence bones of dozens of tiger-type soul beasts, is not expensive; in fact, it could be considered somewhat cheap.
For a long-established family like the Tianlong Sect, money is just a number. The goods placed here can be sold at a high price, at cost price, or even given away for free.
"How about this price, Your Majesty the Beast King?"
The middle-aged man in purple robes bowed to Gong Changlong.
"Yu Qiheng, Director of the Heavenly Dragon Sect, may I ask what brings Your Majesty the Beast King here?"
Gong Changlong had expected to be recognized, after all, he was once on the Tianlongmen blacklist.
Although time passed and the grudges gradually faded, and the Heavenly Dragon Sect removed his name from the blacklist out of respect for Shrek Academy, he remained famous.
"I'm just accompanying you this time. The person in charge is over there." Gong Changlong was straightforward and didn't like any behind-the-scenes dealings. He directly pointed out that Bei Bei was the one in charge.
Yu Qiheng was slightly taken aback, then looked at Beibei and Tang Ya and performed an equal greeting.
"Master of the Tang Clan, I am Yu Qiheng, a council member of the Tianlong Clan."
"Tang Ya, the sect leader of the Tang Clan, has come to request a meeting with the sect leader of the Tianlong Clan. The Tang Clan believes that we can cooperate," Tang Ya said, bowing respectfully.
Cooperation matters?
Yu Qiheng lowered his eyes slightly. The Tang Sect's rapid rise and immense power had also drawn the attention of the Tianlong Sect.
However, the Tang Clan specializes in soul tools and shouldn't have much business dealings with the Tianlong Clan.
What kind of collaboration?
However, with the Shrek Beast King in front of him, he couldn't very well have someone waiting outside.
"Distinguished guests, please come in. Please allow me to inform the head of the family."
The group was ushered into the VIP room of the Tianlongmen main hall.
Yu Qiheng hurriedly sent someone to inform the sect leader, while he went ahead to entertain the Tang Clan members.
"Beast King, I have already sent someone to inform the sect leader. Please wait a moment. May I ask what important matter this time?" Yu Qiheng asked.
As a director of the main hall of the Tianlongmen, he actually wielded considerable power. Furthermore, he was of the same generation as the Tianlongmen leader, though not from the main branch.
However, in name, Shrek Academy is visiting the Heavenly Dragon Sect, so the sect leader must be present.
Gong Changlong picked up his teacup, took a big gulp, and said to Bei Bei, "Actually, talking to him is fine. He's much younger than that old Tianlong. Although they're the same generation, he's not rigid or inflexible!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Qiheng's lips twitched slightly. Was this a compliment or not?
Bei Bei bowed respectfully and got straight to the point: "Senior Yu, we have come here because the Tang Clan's branch in Tian Dou City suffered a significant attack from some force. We hope you can find out the truth."
"Oh?" Yu Qiheng reached out, picked up the teacup, and took a sip.
He had heard some things about what was happening in Tiandou City.
He also knew that the Tang Clan's branch was being secretly "taken care of."
"I'm not very clear about this matter." Yu Qiheng glanced at Gong Changlong, who was biting his cup and struggling, then dipped his finger in the teacup and wrote a word on the table.
The latest novel is first published here!
Beibei glanced over and immediately understood.
That was the character "天" (tian, meaning sky).
The unspeakable "Heaven" refers to the royal family.
It seems that someone from the Heavenly Soul Royal Family or a certain interest group has been taking care of the Tang Sect.
"To be honest, senior, I'd like to know which noble families were behind this," Bei Bei said, getting straight to the point.
As long as the mastermind behind the scenes remains hidden, the Tang Clan's branch offices cannot be opened.
Besides, these disgusting flies are always hiding in the shadows, which is very annoying.
Yu Qiheng picked up his teacup again and took a sip.

He was weighing the pros and cons.
It's not impossible to tell Beibei directly. Although these words won't come from the mouths of the group, the Shrek group is currently guests at the Heavenly Dragon Gate. If they go out to deal with those flies and rats later, some people will inevitably associate it with the Heavenly Dragon Gate.
Even though Tianlongmen is an old aristocratic family with a rich heritage, it doesn't want to become the target of public criticism. After all, over the years, Tianlongmen has not been prosperous and has even been gradually declining.
Yu Qiheng had to consider the issue of the exchange of interests involved.
Ye Nanxiao leaned back in his chair, bored, holding Jiang Nannan's small hand, as if he were resting with his eyes closed.
In fact, his mind was connected to Xiao Ye No. 2.
"Third brother, where do you think we might meet some important people?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
"The news of our entry into the city has already spread. Long Aotian should come looking for us on his own. We just need to wait at the Tang Clan branch," said Xiao Ye No. 3.
"We might run into some clueless guys."
The two pretended to be ordinary people and walked all the way to Third Street.
Regardless of the empire's capital, the order of the streets always reflects the status of the various noble families.
Those who could open shops on First Avenue were basically relatives of the emperor or the emperor himself; those further down the line were the empire's top nobles.
The arrangement of these families in order reflects their respective status.
The fact that Tang Clan was able to open a shop on Third Street was due to a deal between Ye Nanxiao and Princess Vina.
This is also why a group of established families and sects regard the Tang Clan as a thorn in their side.
Because the Tang Clan appeared out of nowhere, they managed to squeeze into Third Street and take a slice of the pie.
Although most noble families knew that the Tang Sect was the reason for Shrek Academy's resurgence, they relied on their status as nobles of the Heavenly Soul Empire to ostracize the Tang Sect.
When Ye Nanxiao arrived at the Tang Clan branch, three groups of people were already gathered outside the Tang Clan's store.
Since the decoration style of Tangmen was based on the design drawings given by Ye Nanxiao, the rows of display windows showed soul tools and the large soul tool screen played the benefits of charging soul tools in a loop, plus the beautiful female shop assistants with long legs wearing fitted cheongsams.
On Third Street, the Tang Clan is definitely the most eye-catching place.
But now, most people can only stay far away.
"See? I told you we'd run into some blind fools trying to cause trouble," said Xiao Ye No. 3.
"They knew we were coming, and they wanted to give us a hard time."
Ye Nanxiao spotted a familiar face among the three groups of people: Long Aotian.
Long Aotian had signed a cooperation agreement with Ye Nanxiao, and after receiving news that the Tang Sect branch was surrounded, he immediately led his men over.
This group not only slapped the Tang Clan in the face, but also showed contempt for Princess Vina's dignity.
As Princess Vina's fiancé, Long Aotian naturally wouldn't give these people a friendly look.
Just as the atmosphere was about to become tense, a familiar voice entered Long Aotian's ears.
"Brother Long, here to show off your connections again?"
