"How about exchanging this Earth-Shaking Golden Dragon Armor for a treasure from Yiyang Mountain?" Yi Chentian looked towards ’Yiyang Mountain’.

Exchanging such golden armor for a treasure from the third brother?

Yiyang Yie listened on the side, his heart shaken.

What kind of treasure does the third brother possess that could be exchanged for a defensive golden armor equivalent to a second-class spiritual treasure?

𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The brothers from Yi Yang Kingdom are close; they generally know what treasures each other has.

Yiyang Yie couldn’t think of any treasure on ’Yiyang Mountain’ worth exchanging for a tier six middle-grade golden armor.

"Third brother..." Yiyang Yie secretly transmitted a message, "I know all the tier six treasures you have, apart from the Yiyang Golden Bow, it’s probably only the White Bamboo Bottle you just used to kill the young man in black, right?"

Although he appeared to transmit this message straightforwardly, he was urgently curious to know what treasure Yiyang Mountain had that was worth exchanging for that Earth-Shaking Golden Dragon Armor.

Disguised as Yiyang Mountain, Chu Ming feigned greed and bitterness on his face, but his heart was filled with joy.

The Sword Gourd Spirit locked onto the two from Heavenly Inquiry Tower, especially the one with the strong aura.

If his guess was correct, this person carried a treasure that resonated with ’Tanghulu’.

’An aura strong enough to touch the Seventh Realm, far exceeding Sixth Realm Perfection...’

’To want to kill him might require using some trump card methods.’

Chu Ming calculated in his heart the methods that could threaten powerhouses of such a level.

Mutated Black Flame, several optimized Primordial Techniques like Thirty-Three Extreme Star Rings, Moonfalling Stars, two True Intents augmenting the Moon Killing Saber, Elemental Shield Shuttle...

However, to ensure nothing goes wrong and to avoid alarming the enemy prematurely, he decided to probe a bit more.

It would be best to genuinely draw out the treasure that ’Tanghulu’ resonates with.

With this thought, Chu Ming feigned taking out the White Bamboo Bottle, pretending to know nothing, saying: "Are you two looking to exchange for this?"

Exchanging the White Bamboo Bottle for the Earth-Shaking Golden Dragon Armor?

Yiyang Yie cast an eager look.

However.

"Yiyang Mountain, that item on you is hardly a treasure, barely reaching tier five; surely you’ve researched it, why play dumb." Yi Chentian’s tone subtly shifted.

Meanwhile, Wu Dai, who had been silent all along, raised an eyebrow, apparently a bit impatient.

Tier five treasure?

Upon hearing this, Yiyang Yie grew even more doubtful, more so than before.

Exchanging an Earth-Shaking Golden Dragon Armor equivalent to a second-class middle-grade spiritual treasure for a tier five treasure?

Impossible!

"Third brother, what exactly is the treasure?" Yiyang Yie transmitted another message secretly.

"To be honest with you, second brother, I have quite a few tier five treasures; I truly don’t know which tier five treasure they are referring to." Chu Ming continued pretending ignorance.

Yi Chentian seemed to notice Yiyang Yie and Yiyang Mountain’s secret communication and also sensed his senior brother Wu Dai’s impatience; he continued:

"Yiyang Mountain, that item is merely my senior brother’s old acquaintance’s possession; it is useless for you, but the Earth-Shaking Golden Dragon Armor is different, as it will greatly enhance your survival capability."

"..."

As the two sides pulled and tugged, Xing Rong from Seven-Star Kingdom, trapped in the Golden Wheel, sneered coldly.

Initially, the two from Heavenly Inquiry Tower concealed their aura, leaving him uncertain of their identity, but upon hearing their statements, he was very sure the two were from Heavenly Inquiry Tower.

Heavenly Inquiry Tower holds a True Intent Soldier Embryo, which superficially resembles a tier five treasure.

If not for the True Intent Soldier Embryo, who would actually exchange a tier six middle-grade golden armor for a so-called acquaintance’s possession in the name of trading?

Moreover, the strength of one of them clearly matches that of his elder brother Xing Hong; if he wanted a treasure, why bother with such nonsense? Just grab it directly.

Only Heavenly Inquiry Tower, due to its reputation, would go to such great lengths to create this so-called exchange.

But the longer it drags on, the greater the chance his elder brother arrives.

With his elder brother’s strength, even if unable to defeat Heavenly Inquiry Tower’s mysterious powerhouse, he could certainly position Seven-Star Kingdom favorably in this treasure competition.

Outside the Golden Wheel.

"Third brother, if it is as you say, are they really here for an acquaintance’s possession?" Yiyang Yie seemed a bit tempted.

A tier five treasure that only gathers dust in their Storage Space, exchanged for a tier six middle-grade defensive golden armor, is hard not to be tempted.

’Yiyang Mountain’ however appeared troubled: "Second brother, I fear it’s a trap."

"..." Yiyang Yie paused, seemingly thinking, after about two breaths, transmitted again: "Third brother, I think it’s worth a try."

"Big brother went to Celestial Veil Kingdom, the fourth brother is injured, even if Golden Sun Annihilation is activated, it might not threaten the other person."

"A treasure of uncertain use exchanged for immediately enhancing survival capabilities with golden armor; any calculation shows it’s worthwhile."

"Besides, Xing Rong’s brother from Seven-Star Kingdom is also coming, the situation will become more chaotic; for Yi Yang Kingdom, you and I need to quickly conclude matters here and return to the capital."

Yiyang Yie suggested secretly.

Yi Yang Kingdom is the old nest of Yiyang Yie and others; besides Golden Sun Annihilation, they have multiple covert measures, solid as a fortress.

Holding Yi Yang Kingdom’s capital, in the absence of their eldest brother, they have the confidence to deal with Qi Sea Realm Perfection powerhouses like Xing Hong.

"..." Yiyang Mountain remained silent.

While the two were discussing.

In Heavenly Inquiry Tower, Wu Dai’s brow furrowed slightly, his Qi Blood stirred, clearly not wanting to wait further.

"Senior brother, for Heavenly Inquiry Tower’s reputation, I’ll try persuading one last time; if Yiyang Mountain continues playing dumb, feel free to act."

Striking down Yiyang Yie and Yiyang Mountain would indeed damage Heavenly Inquiry Tower’s reputation, but the most impacted would be the sub-branch within Yi Yang Kingdom.

Yi Chentian, as the Tower Master of the Yiyang Sub-Branch, having managed it for a hundred years, naturally would not want his efforts destroyed.
