Chapter 133: The Chatterbox’s Another Great Accomplishment
Everything unfolded just as the chatterbox Jia Tianhao had predicted. Lou Pingfan indeed harbored a vendetta against the Liu family, specifically against Liu Feikong, due to a deep-seated hatred rooted in a bloody feud.
Lou Pingfan’s wife and daughter had been brutally murdered by Liu Feikong. In his quest for vengeance, he had spared no effort in aiding Liu Feijue to solidify his status, hoping that Liu Feijue would help eliminate Liu Feikong. However, Liu Feijue, prioritizing his own safety, refrained from killing Liu Feikong and merely suppressed him.
This act left Lou Pingfan with lingering resentment toward Liu Feijue.
He had contemplated taking matters into his own hands, but ever since Liu Feikong arrived in Mo City, he had been under the constant protection of Great Boundless fighters, except during the recent raid by Zhang Yang and his group on the Liu family’s residence.
In the past, Lou Pingfan would have readily killed Liu Feikong without hesitation, but now he had responsibilities—including a godson and a secret organization he had established to find opportunities to deal with Liu Feikong. Consequently, he found himself restrained.
Zhang Yang’s appearance offered him a glimmer of hope.
Lou Pingfan had encountered countless geniuses, eccentrics, and formidable individuals, but none quite like Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang dared to challenge the rules of the Southern Region and stand against powerful Saint-level forces, all while living life to the fullest.
In his excitement, Lou Pingfan had sent a message to guide him.
Later, recalling his chat with the chatterbox Jia Tianhao, he surmised that Zhang Yang had likely deduced it was him, prompting him to arrange a direct meeting.
He intended to showcase his strength—he was the Seventh Prince of the Great Boundless rank, just two steps away from the complete Great Boundless rank at nine lives.
Additionally, his current status within the Liu family was quite high, granting him significant influence.
Thus, he was confident that Zhang Yang would be more than willing to accept him, provided that Liu Feikong was dealt with.
“The auction will proceed as planned, right?” Zhang Yang suddenly inquired.
Lou Pingfan replied, “Yes, this concerns the reputation of the Five Elements Commerce Association. The association is composed of five families that compete fiercely, each attempting to undermine the others’ interests. The other four families will undoubtedly seize this opportunity to strike a blow against the Liu family.”
“Furthermore, what you did to Liu Feijue was essentially a breach of trust. Eliminating him entirely is nearly impossible. Even if someone within the Liu family causes trouble, or if an external force intervenes, it will still be difficult. The real factor that will make Liu Feijue lose power is the other four families leveraging the reputation of the Five Elements Commerce Association to their advantage.”
“Therefore, the Liu family must not only continue the auction but will also need to enhance it. This time, the final auction item has been changed to the Golden Dragon Shield.”
“Liu Feijue is effectively out of power and has already returned; Liu Feikong will now take charge of the auction.”
Zhang Yang nodded.
He now understood that in a force that had existed for over ten thousand years, intricate internal relationships could easily turn significant matters into trivial ones and trivial matters into nothing. Yet, at any moment, small issues could escalate into colossal problems.
“I will handle Liu Feikong during this auction and deliver him to you,” Zhang Yang declared.
Lou Pingfan felt a surge of excitement but quickly restrained himself. He knew that Liu Feikong was currently surrounded by nine Great Boundless fighters, making him a formidable target.
Moreover, other Great Boundless fighters were also keeping a close watch on Zhang Yang.
If Zhang Yang truly managed to accomplish this, Lou Pingfan would genuinely respect him—not merely for revenge but for his capabilities.
He said, “Alright, if you need anything, I will do my utmost to assist.”
After their conversation, he hurriedly departed.
The Liu family’s residence was in a highly sensitive period, and he dared not be away for too long, even in the middle of the night.
Once he left, Jia Tianhao couldn’t resist either and wanted to rush out.
“What are you going to do?”
“Looking for someone to chat with?”
“It’s almost dawn. Who could you find at this hour? You just got the Six-Turn Golden Pill but aren’t rushing to break through. Why do you want to run off again?”
Jia Tianhao appeared troubled.
Just because Zhang Yang had told him to find someone to chat with, it felt like a dam had burst within him, and he was overwhelmed with excitement, unable to stay still for even a moment.
“Maybe I should just skip the Six-Turn Golden Pill.”
Zhang Yang was speechless. Had this guy lost his mind? He was willing to give up a breakthrough opportunity just for a conversation.
The chatterbox had gone many days without someone to talk to, and finally being released felt indescribably exhilarating.
In the end, Zhang Yang let him go but reminded him to be extra careful during this sensitive time.
Jia Tianhao raced off excitedly, disappearing in an instant.
Now, all that was left was to wait for the auction.
The auction was still ten days away.
Zhang Yang settled down to cultivate.
This time, he naturally gained some Spirit Stones.
He easily made another breakthrough, reaching the eighth level of the Touching Heaven realm.
He had originally planned to push through to the ninth level of the Touching Heaven realm or even reach the Ascending to Heaven realm to soar freely in the sky. However, he didn’t expect to run out of Spirit Stones so soon.
The main reason was that he discovered that as his realm increased, starting from the third level of the Touching Heaven realm, the amount of Spirit Stones required for each breakthrough kept increasing.
He suspected that once he entered the Ascending to Heaven realm, he might need even higher-grade and rarer Spirit Saint Stones for cultivation.
It was well known that Spirit Saint Stone veins were controlled by major Saint-level forces, as they were essential for Saints’ cultivation.
Later, he tried using other so-called auxiliary treasures for cultivation, but none worked.
The more Nine Extremes True Essence he accumulated, the greater his needs became, and the more stringent the requirements grew.
Strength came at a cost!
Zhang Yang truly experienced this firsthand. It wasn’t a matter of cultivating too slowly; rather, it was about having enough external resources.
He also understood why experts continued to grow stronger.
If he had an adequate supply of resources in the Holy Land, who knew if he could reach the Small Boundless level in a year—or perhaps even achieve a higher rank?
At that moment, he realized how crucial it was for the Vast Forest to rise to the level of a major force, and eventually, even a Saint-level power.
Unable to cultivate, he secretly contacted Yi Ren Zui, hoping to purchase some Spirit Stones through her.
However, Yi Ren Zui took a long time to respond.
“I’ve been targeted by various major forces; do not contact me. Otherwise, you might expose yourself.”
This message immediately extinguished Zhang Yang’s hopes.
He could only wait patiently for the auction to begin.
Yet, surprises always arrived unexpectedly.
The chatterbox, Jia Tianhao, returned after conversing with someone and was so excited that he nearly rolled into the room.
"I chatted with someone, someone, someone…"
He was stammering so much that it was clear just how excited he was.
Zhang Yang said, "Calm down and speak slowly."
Jia Tianhe gave him a light smack on the head and scolded, "Stupid kid! You are the number one chatterbox of our Golden Armored Giant Clan. Have some dignity, will you? Speak clearly!"
Yuluan stepped forward gracefully, now incredibly wealthy. She had three golden hairpins in her hair, all immeasurable divine treasures. The necklace around her neck was also an immeasurable divine treasure, as were her clothes. Even the ten rings on her fingers and the six bracelets on her wrists were all treasures. She smiled and said, "Chatterbox, don’t get so excited; speak properly."
But Jia Tianhao was too exhilarated to form a coherent sentence.
Everyone watching found it amusing.
In the end, Jia Tianhe poured himself a glass of water, and finally, he managed to squeeze out a sentence.
"I chatted with a… Saint!"
