Ye Tian: "With Zhu Tianjun's cultivation so high, he must have long transcended worldly affairs, right?"
Lei Bowei: "This person's influence is pervasive. Little Ye, do you know about the Ji Xian Pavilion? He founded it. With the Ji Xian Pavilion, most of the officials and nobles in the world have benefited from him."
Ye Tian: "He controls the Ji Xian Pavilion? With his cultivation realm, it wouldn't be difficult to achieve that."
"Little Ye, don't inquire about him anymore. When one's cultivation reaches his level, with the ability to see and hear everything, he can easily sense you."
Ye Tian nodded: "I have no karma with him, so it doesn't matter."
After a few pleasantries, Ye Tian took his leave.
Next, he went to visit Yang Dongfo.
Yang Dongfo was home that day and was very happy to learn of Ye Tian's visit. He specifically brought out the good wine he had saved.
As soon as Ye Tian arrived, he had a table of dishes prepared and drank with Ye Tian.
After a few cups of wine, Yang Dongfo said: "Sir, you are here for the Long family, aren't you?"
Ye Tian was surprised: "Old Yang, you know?"
Yang Dongfo smiled: "I have some dealings with the Five Dragons and Nine Phoenixes. They have all mentioned you, so it's not hard to deduce."
Ye Tian nodded: "I plan to subdue the Five Dragons and Nine Phoenixes, and then dismantle the Long family."
Yang Dongfo: "The Long family is not the main concern; the key is the strategist. Do you know his identity?"
Ye Tian's heart stirred: "Everyone says his identity is mysterious. Do you know, Old Yang?"
Yang Dongfo: "He is from the Ji Xian Pavilion. If you intend to deal with the strategist, it's equivalent to making an enemy of the Ji Xian Pavilion."
Ye Tian smiled: "The Ji Xian Pavilion scattered the Heavenly Alliance back then. I am now reorganizing the Heavenly Alliance, so I have already offended them."
Yang Dongfo: "Yes, that's why I must remind you to be cautious of the Ji Xian Pavilion."
Ye Tian: "Is that Zhu Tianjun still at the Ji Xian Pavilion?"
Yang Dongfo's expression changed, and his voice lowered slightly: "That one, it is said, has been in seclusion for several years, so he cannot manage external affairs. The one currently in charge of the Ji Xian Pavilion is an Earth Immortal in the Yin-Yang realm, who calls himself Yin Fu Xian Jun."
Ye Tian: "Yin-Yang realm? That is indeed high cultivation."
Yang Dongfo: "Yes, so the Ji Xian Pavilion is not to be trifled with. However, regarding the Long family matter, I can provide some intelligence assistance."
Ye Tian: "Then I thank you, Old Yang."
After finishing their drinks, as it was getting late, Yang Dongfo returned to Jiuhua Mountain Villa.
Upon his return, he found Black Dragon, Red Dragon, and Yellow Dragon present. Yellow Dragon was Long San, Ye Jinlong, whom Ye Tian knew. Among the Nine Phoenixes, besides Ice Phoenix, there were two other women, equally young and beautiful: Blue Phoenix and Spirit Phoenix.
Black Dragon said: "Leader, allow me to introduce my second brother, Red Dragon, and third brother, Yellow Dragon."
Red Dragon was a man around forty, with kind eyes and a smile on his face. He was dressed in casual white attire. He quickly stood up and said, "Red Dragon greets the Leader!"
Ye Tian: "I have heard of you. Meeting you is better than hearing about you."
Red Dragon was very humble: "You flatter me. My third and fourth brothers have both mentioned you, Leader. It is I who have heard your name like thunder."
Ye Jinlong smiled: "Leader, we meet again."
Ye Tian: "Third Brother Long. How was the effect of the Golden Jade Refining Pill?"
"Excellent!" Ye Jinlong said with a smile, then turned to the others: "You don't know yet, do you? The Leader is a very skilled alchemist!"
Hearing that he was an alchemist, everyone was surprised. Alchemists had become extremely rare in this world.
Li Qingmei: "Leader, allow me to introduce my sisters. This is Blue Phoenix, who is in charge of European affairs."
Blue Phoenix wore a blue qipao, her skin like snow, with a melon-seed face and clear, cold eyes, clearly a stunning beauty. She gave Ye Tian a slight bow and said, "Leader, I am Blue Phoenix Mu Yun."
Ye Tian: "Miss Mu is in charge of Europe. How are things there?"
Mu Yun: "I have established a 'Baili Chamber of Commerce' in Europe, with tens of thousands of members. It is currently in its early stages of development. However, we have already gained some influence in Europe."
Li Qingmei continued to introduce another person: "Leader, this is Spirit Phoenix from Dongying, Li Lengmei."
