Chapter: Another Year
Yin City is different from Yin-Yang City, as it is a place of rampant slavery. In Yin City, almost every Dungeon has regulations regarding the number of slaves allowed.
For instance, the Eighteen Layers of Hell can only accommodate one slave, while the Year Beast Secret Realm differs from that in Yin-Yang City; here, only one person can participate and they can bring two slaves.
Essentially, this means there can only be three combatants present.
Yan and Le are considered one entity, and Su Fang's Nine Ghost Children are regarded as her true form. Along with Yang Zai Xing, Lian Yun's participation in the Year Beast Secret Realm in Yin City grants him thirteen combatants, all of whom possess Emperor-Level Combat Power.
This advantage is unprecedentedly strong.
Although there is only one ranking list with a thousand names and no tier divisions, it essentially means that any ghost below the top Demon Emperor has no chance of making the list.
In Yin City, Lian Yun does not care about the rankings; he is primarily focused on obtaining as many treasure boxes as possible, despite the significant rewards for the top ten, which he dares not think about for now.
However, things are different in Yin-Yang City.
Ever since Le left with the Ghost Slaves, Lian Yun began working with Cheng to forge Silver Dragon Armor. Having gained experience from crafting two sets in Dream of the Ancient Times, creating them in reality was naturally easier than the first time.
However, sensing the Spirituality of the materials still took considerable time.
It took nearly three weeks to complete both sets of armor.
Once the armor was ready, Cheng crafted a Soul Sword since most of the previous Superior Soul Swords had been taken by Le to Yin City.
Meanwhile, Lian Yun started participating in various Beast Tide battles.
Wherever there were Emperor-Level Beast Tides, Lian Yun could be found. In areas without Emperor-Level Beast Tides, he would take Sovereign Quests in Handan City to hunt outside the city.
His Honor Points had already surpassed ten billion, yet Lian Yun did not immediately purchase a Duke Title. He wanted to see if defeating the Year Beast BSS would grant him an imperial reward instead, saving those ten billion Honor Points.
Before the Annual Meeting began, Lian Yun had already contacted Insect Emperor and Xiao Jun.
Lian Yun extended the invitation, and naturally, Xiao Jun had no objections. However, Insect Emperor remarked, "Hmph, if you find someone else, I won't let this go."
If Lian Yun were of the same generation as him, he might have said something like cutting ties and never speaking again.
Lian Yun, of course, did not take this to heart, as he possessed the Silver Dragon Armor, which was specifically tailored for Insect Emperor.
However, the effect of Insect Emperor's set was slightly inferior, only covering a radius of about ninety meters. In contrast, Lian Yun's own set had a doubled effect, reaching around a radius of two hundred meters.
This wasn't something Lian Yun did intentionally; he simply focused on forging without considering the effects, resulting in this situation.
Due to issues with the Treasure Alliance's auction, the three met in Chang'an City. Upon meeting, Insect Emperor immediately asked Lian Yun for the Silver Dragon Armor.
As soon as he donned a slightly more flamboyant version of the Silver Dragon Armor, he couldn't contain his joy and looked at Lian Yun with bright eyes, saying, "This is for me, right? Tailored just for me!"
His attitude was such that even if it weren't true, it might as well be.
Lian Yun nodded but replied, "However, all treasures obtained from the secret realm belong to me."
Insect Emperor reined in his excitement a bit and nodded in agreement but added, "Give me five hundred Mental Potions."
For Insect Emperor, during the High Emperor Beast Tide, the over two hundred thousand Diamond Spirit Coins Lian Yun provided him and his own second-place reward combined were enough for him to use for over a year. He didn't care much about other possessions; he only lacked Mental Potions.
To this, Lian Yun smiled and said, "How about I give you a thousand instead?"
Insect Emperor's eyes widened for a moment before he nodded without further comment.
Truth be told, if it weren't for the time constraints on Yan's side preventing him from bringing over the Mental Potions, Lian Yun would have had no problem giving all his Mental Potions to Insect Emperor.
He certainly would not be stingy.
As for Lian Yun, wanting more treasure boxes was simply to obtain more ores.
At this auction, many people requested Meng Yixuan to perform, but instead, Azure Drift took the stage, which left many feeling disappointed.
However, the competition for purchasing seats was still very fierce because Azure Drift's realm was one of tranquility, calming the restlessness of the mind and offering a chance for enlightenment.
In terms of thought, mindset, or martial arts, there were significant improvements to be gained.
Lian Yun, Xiao Jun, and the Insect Emperor each had a Meditation Cushion.
Perhaps it was due to his status as a general or perhaps out of gratitude for Azure Pavilion's assistance over the past year; the Insect Emperor generously put down three thousand Diamond Spirit Coins to secure a seat in support.
After a performance, both Lian Yun and Xiao Jun appeared more composed, while the Insect Emperor's wild nature had been somewhat tempered and refined.
During the subsequent auction, the three paid little attention until the final hundred Mental Potions came up for bid. The Insect Emperor claimed them all in one go with three thousand Diamond Spirit Coins.
Such extravagance made it seem like he could easily burn through hundreds of thousands of Diamond Spirit Coins in less than a year.
However, Lian Yun felt indifferent about it. The Insect Emperor's behavior—being frugal when broke and lavish when wealthy—was simply a way of living freely and comfortably.
As long as he lived well and did not harm others, there was nothing wrong with that.
After the auction, they entered the Year Beast Secret Realm within Chang'an City. The Qin Emperor was also present during the auction and remained nearby now, but he said nothing further; his gaze towards Lian Yun openly revealed a murderous intent.
Many around them donned Silver Dragon Armor, but compared to Lian Yun and his companions, their gear was significantly inferior and likely less effective.
This prompted some Monarchs to ask, "Insect Emperor, Cloud Sovereign Marquis, Lord Jun, are you planning to hunt that Year Beast BSS this time?"
Compared to the previous year's quiet arrival, today in Yin Yang City, Twelve Cities, and even among the Three Major Troops, it is hard to find anyone who does not know the name Lian Yun.
Moreover, many believe that with the strength of Bai Yun and Xiao Jun not yet breaking through to Monarch, their goal must be to slay the Year Beast BSS. Now that the three of them possess three sets of Supreme Dragon Set, this belief has only grown stronger.
"Hey~~ who knows, after we kill it, maybe the Emperor will make me a Prince."
Although reluctant to speak, the Qin Emperor beside him let out a cold snort, his eyes filled with sarcasm.
The Insect Emperor, however, did not hide his mockery: "Oh~~ a dying man is still so arrogant?"
"You~~" The Qin Emperor was furious but managed to restrain himself in the end, unable to voice his anger.
Now that he had fallen from grace, he naturally had to keep a low profile. The Insect Emperor was not weak himself and was a solitary figure with the Supreme Dragon Set. Previously, he had chosen to show some deference just to avoid trouble.
Now, he truly did not dare to act arrogantly in front of the Insect Emperor.
The Insect Emperor merely sneered and said no more. Instead, he fell silent for a moment before leading Lian Yun and Xiao Jun into the secret realm as it opened.
