Xiang Beifei did not leave the guest hall of the Crane Dao Courtyard; he remained standing in the corner, disguising himself as air using his powerful Yin and Yang primal energy. As long as he didn’t make a move, no one could detect him. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs noveⅼfire.net
His gaze flickered with black and white light, immediately revealing the system interface of the person before him:
[Dao Keeper: Ge Hengzi]
[Dao embryo: Divine Sense Dao]
[Dao technique: Inquiry Dao Initial Stage]
[Dao embryo description: Cultivates intuition, perception, hearing, smell, vision... and other Divine Sense powers, being a hundred times more powerful in perception than ordinary people!]
"This guy is actually in the Inquiry Dao Realm."
Xiang Beifei thoughtfully regarded the other’s system interface, gaining a detailed understanding of Ge Hengzi’s Dao embryo information.
He didn’t show anything; he just quietly pondered.
Meanwhile, He Yunfang, upon seeing Ge Hengzi, felt quite surprised and became distinctly wary.
The Crane Dao Courtyard had very strong defensive methods, but for this person to suddenly enter quietly, ignoring the outside formation without alerting anyone, meant—
This person’s strength was extremely terrifying!
He Yunfang remembered what Xiang Beifei said earlier. Although he didn’t know how Xiang Beifei discovered it, he was clear in his mind, calmed himself, and cupped his hands, saying, "May I ask, who are you?"
"I am from Dao Palace."
Ge Hengzi presented the Dao envoy order.
As the current Clan Leader of the crane race, He Yunfang was naturally familiar with this token, and his heart skipped a beat.
For someone from Dao Palace to visit personally, this was definitely not a good thing.
He Yunfang couldn’t help but think of Xiang Beifei.
Xiang Beifei belonged to the Human Race, which was a race wanted by Dao Palace! Dao Palace had issued a kill-on-sight order throughout the Edge Corner Airspace; any sighting of the Human Race must be met with annihilation!
Could Xiang Beifei’s identity have been discovered?
He Yunfang felt anxious.
If people from Dao Palace knew that they had harbored a member of the Human Race, then the trouble would be immense! The wrath of Dao Palace was definitely something they couldn’t withstand.
He Yunfang forcibly calmed himself and said, "So it is the Honorable Dao Envoy. May I ask what service I can provide for the Honorable Dao Envoy visiting my humble abode?"
Ge Hengzi looked around. Before coming, he had already searched here using his immense perception, but everything seemed normal.
"I am here today to investigate some matters and hope that Chief He will cooperate," Ge Hengzi said.
He Yunfang immediately said, "Honorable Dao Envoy, please feel free to say anything. I will certainly cooperate if I can assist."
Ge Hengzi said straightforwardly, "Chief He, regarding the auctioning of Dao Stones at the Divine Feather Commercial Tower, is this true?"
Ge Hengzi stared at He Yunfang.
His cultivation was a powerful Divine Sense Dao; he could discern if someone was lying simply through intuition. No matter how calm or how well one disguised oneself, it was impossible to deceive him!
The Divine Sense Race was a powerful upper-class race in the Edge Corner Airspace, deeply valued by the upper echelons of Dao Palace. With their strong perception abilities, they could locate the clues to events, which was why Ge Hengzi could fulfill the position of Dao Envoy.
Neither He Yunfang’s cultivation nor his Dao embryo was a match for him. In front of Ge Hengzi’s Divine Sense Dao, if He Yunfang were to lie, he would see through it in an instant!
He Yunfang’s gaze wavered. By rights, a buyer’s identity should be confidential, but since the other party was from Dao Palace, it was understandable that he knew of this matter; he just didn’t know why they were seeking them.
"That’s right, we spent three hundred lengths of soil to auction a Dao Stone," He Yunfang said.
This Dao Stone was acquired openly and was nothing that couldn’t be mentioned.
But regarding the other Dao Stone, he would never admit its existence, because the "Dao Stone" obtained from Cai Kun was of major significance, and he couldn’t explain its origin.
"But as I know, the Divine Feather Commercial Tower auctioned two Dao Stones; the second Dao Stone is said to share the same source as the first. About this second Dao Stone, do you have any thoughts?" Ge Hengzi asked.
He Yunfang chuckled dryly twice and said, "Think, of course, I thought! But even if I thought, so what? Can we go snatch it? We don’t even know who won the first Dao Stone."
He Yunfang was a clever person; saying something uncertain instead of covering it up was less suspicious, so he spoke ambiguously.
He continued, "To be frank, the Dao intent contained in that Dao Stone is probably something the Honorable Dao Envoy has heard of. For us, obtaining one Dao Stone is enough for us to meditate on for a long time."
"The second Dao Stone was purchased by Tang Yingxin," Ge Hengzi said impassively.
"Tang Yingxin? He bought it?" He Yunfang feigned surprise and asked.
"He’s dead." Ge Hengzi continued.
He Yunfang was taken aback.
His mind involuntarily recalled the battle over two months ago.
The powerful Avian Clan genius Tang Yingxin was full of momentum, enough to kill him, but at the precarious moment, Xiang Beifei raised his hand and directly extinguished the genius!
The image of that scene was deeply engraved in his mind to this day.
He Yunfang composed himself and asked, "Was he killed by that Broken Dao Race genius?"
"You should be the one telling me."
"Me?" He Yunfang’s heart constricted, saying, "Honorable Dao Envoy, don’t joke, what does this have to do with me?"
Ge Hengzi said indifferently, "Tang Yingxin obtained the first Dao Stone, but this Dao Stone also belonged to Cai Kun. As I know Cai Kun, after acquiring a Dao Stone, he certainly wouldn’t let the second Dao Stone go, so Cai Kun will definitely come to find you all."
