Wang Yi suddenly realized that he had asked such an idiotic question just now. Thus, he blushed, which was a rare sight.

He quickly changed the topic and said, “They’ve been out for so long. Wu Shuang and Jiang Zailang should be back soon, right?”

At the same time, Wang Yi sighed in his heart. He did not expect that the Langya Domain, which had endless territory, was only a small place. There was actually a vast world outside.

In the hall, the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Venerable Ning Jing seemed to be suppressing her laughter. Her expression was extremely strange as she echoed, “They should be back soon.”

Coincidentally, as soon as she finished speaking, Wu Shuang walked into the hall with Jiang Zailang.

The awkward atmosphere immediately disappeared, and Wang Yi and Venerable Ning Jing’s expressions became extremely serious.

After all, the item they were about to receive concerned a Connate Venerable. Anyone would have to be careful.

The card containing the recording was inserted into the playback device. It started to get a little noisy, and it was hard to hear what was being said in the recording.

As time passed, a clear voice finally sounded from the hall.

“Jiang Zailang greets the Venerable. Welcome to the Three Absolutes Auction House.”

It was obviously Jiang Zailang’s voice.

After a moment of silence, a very low and cold voice suddenly sounded. “There’s no need to be so polite. I came here today to ask you to do something.”

The moment this voice sounded, Wang Yi flashed a questioning gaze at Venerable Ning Jing.

Among everyone present, other than Jiang Zailang, only Venerable Ning Jing had come into contact with Venerable Lie Kong. Therefore, only Venerable Ning Jing could determine the authenticity of this recording.

Venerable Ning Jing naturally understood the meaning in Wang Yi’s gaze. She nodded slightly at him and said, “That’s right, it’s indeed Venerable Lie Kong’s voice.”

In fact, the moment that voice appeared, Venerable Ning Jing had already determined that the owner of the voice was undoubtedly Venerable Lie Kong.

After all, she was a Venerable, and her spiritual power was terrifyingly strong. It was definitely not difficult for her to remember everything.

Even if it was a year ago or even years ago, she could still remember it if she wanted to, let alone a voice she had heard six months ago.

Especially since the owner of the voice was a Venerable, it was even more impossible to forget or remember wrongly.

After receiving confirmation from Venerable Ning Jing, the killing intent in Wang Yi’s heart instantly became extremely violent, as if it was about to soar into the sky.

Wang Yi frowned tightly. He suppressed his violent killing intent and continued listening.

After all, this was only the beginning. He had yet to hear the rest.

Jiang Zailang’s respectful voice sounded again. “Please instruct us, Lord Venerable. It’s our honor to serve you!”

The coldness in Venerable Lie Kong’s voice disappeared, and he said indifferently, “It’s not difficult for you.”

“You just need to send a message to Zhao Tianlin. Tell him that the person who won the bid for the Body Restoring Flower that day was the head of the Su family in Cang City, Su Changlin.”

“However, there is one thing you must remember. You must not reveal my existence to anyone.”

Everyone heard Jiang Zailang’s breathing suddenly stop. They did not know what he was thinking at that time.

After only a slight pause, he said respectfully, “Don’t worry, Lord Venerable. I will definitely handle this matter beautifully. I will definitely not tell anyone.”

Venerable Lie Kong seemed to be very satisfied. He chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, I definitely won’t treat you badly for working for me. This will be your reward.”

Clack!

As soon as the voice fell, something was placed on the table. Then, there was the sound of footsteps.

However, only a few steps were taken before the footsteps suddenly stopped again. Then, Venerable Lie Kong’s warning voice sounded again.

“Remember my words. If you dare to reveal my existence, I will take your life and the treasure in front of you.”

That was about it for the main content of the recording. As for the rest, there was no longer any value to it. It was just some words like Jiang Zailang’s guarantee oath.

As the recording ended, it was completely confirmed that Venerable Lie Kong was the mastermind behind the Su family’s incident.

Wang Yi could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. Icy killing intent seeped out of his body, and it was as if a world-destroying weapon had broken through the sky and reached the heavens.

His spiritual energy and the power of the world intertwined and seemed to have transformed into a terrifying storm. With the Venerable Palace as the center, it swept in all directions, causing the world to change color.

At this moment, although Wang Yi was in a rage, he was still rational and did not affect anyone else.

Even so, Jiang Zailang was so frightened that his face turned pale. He hurriedly took out a palm-sized piece of black metal and presented it to Wang Yi respectfully with both hands.

Then, he said in fear and trepidation, “Lord Venerable, this item was left behind by Venerable Lie Kong. I’ve never used it.”

Wang Yi’s gaze swept across the black metal. True qi surged from his palm and directly sucked the black metal over.

Creak! Creak! Creak!

Wang Yi, who was already in a rage, did not take a closer look after obtaining the piece of black metal left behind by Venerable Lie Kong.

A dark golden luster instantly appeared on his palm. At the same time, it was as if a dragon was roaring.

Then, with a slight force of his fingers, accompanied by an unpleasant creaking sound, the black metal piece was directly crushed by him.

Hiss!

Apart from the confused Su Shiya, the others, including Venerable Ning Jing, couldn’t help but gasp.

Their eyes were filled with shock and disbelief. It was obvious that they had recognized the palm-sized piece of black metal in front of them.

It was the Dark Blood Heavenly Gold!

It was the strongest material for refining weapons below the Connate Realm. It could allow one to fight against Connate weapons without being at a disadvantage.

Even if a Rank-9 creature used all its strength, it could not leave a trace on it.

However, Wang Yi had easily crushed such a powerful and heavenly metal material. How could anyone not be shocked?

However, the person who was the most uneasy was Venerable Ning Jing. If it was just crushing the Dark Blood Heavenly Gold, she could easily do it. After all, as a Connate expert, she still had the confidence.

However, she realized that Wang Yi was acting strangely when he crushed the Dark Blood Heavenly Gold. He was completely relying on his physical strength.

If it were her, she probably wouldn’t be able to do this with just her physical strength.

Wang Yi had a look of disdain on his face. He casually threw away the residue in his hand and said indifferently, “Poor bastard!”

“He’s a Connate Venerable after all. How can he take out such trash? He’s really embarrassing all the Venerables.”
