Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

With a warm smile on his face, Zuo Feng glanced casually, but when his sharp eyes looked at the handrail of the stairs, it seemed that a gleam of light flashed.

But this change was too rapid, and there was no sign before, even the young man could not notice it. In his eyes, Zuo Feng just paused for a moment, turned his head halfway, and then walked straight forward.

As Zuo Feng walked forward, the smile on his face had disappeared, but the pictures he had captured in an instant had already emerged in his mind. Zuo Feng had already made some speculations about several details in the pictures.

First of all, the stairs in front of him could only lead to the third floor and could not continue to the fourth floor. If it looked like this, the stairs in front of him were very likely to be specially prepared for the third floor, and the second floor had become a barrier to the third floor invisibly.

In addition, Zuo Feng could see through the gap in the handrail that the light above was very strong, which could be described as brightly lit. This means that there may be an important person on the third floor at this moment, and that important person is most likely the shopkeeper, or the boss of the trading house, Lin Zhi.

In a chamber of commerce that often owns several shops, the person in charge of one shop is called the shopkeeper, and the person who owns all the shops is called the boss. This Duobao Trading House may just be using the original name of its predecessor, Duobao Pavilion.

According to Zuo Feng's judgment, Lin Zhi attaches great importance to the monster Shan Ji. Since he will feel at ease if he arranges her by his side, Zuo Feng predicts that the most likely place for the monster Shan Ji to be imprisoned is the third floor of this trading building.

In the silent analysis, Zuo Feng's footsteps did not pause at all. In fact, when Zuo Feng came to the second floor, he did not need anyone to lead the way. He could clearly know where Mo Shangyou was.

In front of him was a long corridor. Every few meters, there would be a warrior standing by the wall, and near the end of the corridor, there were two warriors standing by the door. Seeing the two warriors, Zuo Feng already understood that Mo Shangyou was going to meet him in this room.

When Zuo Feng came to the door, two warriors stretched out their hands at the same time, blocking Zuo Feng's way, and had no intention of letting him in. Until the young man spoke, he said loudly: "Master, the young master of the Kang family is here."

In the room, Mo Shangyou calmly said "Please come in quickly", and the two warriors withdrew their arms and stepped aside to open the door for Zuo Feng, making way for him.

When Zuo Feng walked slowly, he didn't need to use his mind to detect, and he could sense the strength of the two people in front of him, at least at the peak level of the Sensing Qi Stage. And looking at the state of the two people's aura, it is obvious that they have stayed at this level for a while, and they may make another breakthrough at any time.

However, he had already seen two warriors in the late stage of cultivating Qi as guards, and it seemed that there was nothing surprising about having two gatekeepers at the peak of the Sensing Qi Stage in front of him.

After feeling the strength of the two warriors, Zuo Feng immediately understood another intention of Mo Shangyou. His strength was at the peak of the Sensing Qi Stage, and the other party deliberately found two warriors with the same cultivation level, which meant to tell Zuo Feng that his cultivation level was not reliable at all.

Zuo Feng could only smile secretly at Mo Shangyou's intentions. If it was against ordinary people, this move might have some deterrent effect. But for Zuo Feng, this was meaningless. After all, he, Zuo Feng, did not come with the purpose of trading, but just made a trading gesture.

This is an extremely spacious and luxurious room. It can be described as spacious because this room can accommodate fifty or sixty people, and it is not a problem to hold a small auction. As for luxury, it can be seen from the surrounding decorations that every item is absolutely valuable.

The huge chandelier made of dozens of crystal cups and medium-grade spiritual stones completely illuminates such a huge space. Looking up, you will feel a dazzling feeling of looking at the sun. The full set of furniture made of green iron wood can only be described as luxurious.

A huge jade slab is placed at the entrance. In addition to the decorative function, the jade also serves as a screen wall. Without Zuo Feng's keen observation, most of the situation in the room would not be visible if he just stood at the door.

Going around the huge jade screen wall, there is a special exquisite in the room. In the center of the room is a pool, in which you can see all kinds of rare species of fish swimming slowly.

At this time, the Ye Lin Empire is still in the late winter outside. The surface of ordinary lakes and rivers is frozen, but in this trading building, it is spring all year round.

On the right hand side is a huge screen, on which are depicted layers of high mountains. Zuo Feng only took a glance at the shape of these mountains and was able to determine that the painting was the Tianping Mountains. Even though he has traveled so many places, Zuo Feng has never seen a more precipitous peak than the Tianping Mountains.

After seeing this huge screen, Zuo Feng felt a little angry and disdainful. These people came to the Tianping Plain and established this new hunting county for the purpose of dealing with the monsters in the Tianping Mountains, but in their hearts, they also regarded the Tianping Mountains and those monsters as a symbol of the Ye Lin Empire.

This contradictory mentality actually reflects the twisted mentality of most people in the Ye Lin Empire from another aspect. On the one hand, the Tianping Mountains and the monster clan have a very high status in the hearts of the people of the Ye Lin Empire. On the other hand, people have a greedy heart for monsters, hoping to plunder more resources from monsters and the Tianping Mountains.

The greediest part of human nature led to the final rise of Xinxu County. At the same time, the Ye Lin Empire began to tilt the center of gravity of the empire towards here.

It can be said that the main development of the Ye Lin Empire is now completely dependent on the Tianping Mountains and completely depends on the plunder of the monster clan.

In Zuo Feng's view, the development mode of the Ye Lin Empire is completely a way to catch fish in a dry pond. When the plunder of the monster clan continues, there will be a day when the plunder will be clean.

On the contrary, the Xuanwu Empire has done better in this regard. They have a certain degree of control over the Spiritual Medicine Mountain Range of the Warcraft Clan, and never organize large-scale killings and plundering. They only allow small hunting teams and herb-collecting teams to move around in the Spiritual Medicine Mountain Range, and mainly collect medicinal materials and minerals, supplemented by hunting Warcraft.

The former Ye Lin Empire also reached a coexistence and symbiosis with the Tianping Mountain Range in this way. Until Zhentian and a large number of monsters were trapped in the Eight Gates Space, the strength of Tianping Mountain began to decline. The Ye Lin Empire could not bear the drive of greed and began to plunder unscrupulously.

"Mr. Kang noticed my screen as soon as he came here. Since you have been looking at it for so long, please give it a taste, okay?"

A voice sounded behind him. In fact, before the other party approached, Zuo Feng had already judged from his footsteps that the person was Mo Shangyou.

His eyes stayed on the screen. After a moment of hesitation, Zuo Feng slowly said, "I can't really say that I appreciate it, but I can say what I think. The author of this screen has a powerful and fluent brushstroke. It is obvious that the whole painting was already clear in his mind before he started to paint."

Nodding, anyone who knows a little about calligraphy and painting can say that. Since Zuo Feng is the son of the Kang family, it is not surprising that he has such insights.

Zuo Feng continued, "The painter of this painting not only has amazing observation skills, but also has admirable painting skills. He has integrated the mystery of the four seasons of the Tianping Mountains into this painting, which shows that he has put a lot of effort into it."

Slightly startled, Mo Shangyou was a little surprised that Zuo Feng could see these. Of course, he could see what Zuo Feng said, but that was a few months after he got the screen. Now Zuo Feng has only seen half a cup of tea, and his level can be seen from this.

In fact, Zuo Feng did not see it, but felt it. After all, he grew up in Tianping Mountains. Perhaps the most familiar scenery for Zuo Feng is nothing more than the changing seasons of Tianping Mountains.

However, in Mo Shangyou's opinion, Zuo Feng could see these because Mr. Kang came from a great family and had a good attainment in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so he could see the clues in a short time.

In his heart, he was even more convinced of Zuo Feng's identity as the son of the Kang family. He laughed and said, "It's been a long time since I met someone who understands the mystery of my screen. I'm really happy today. Mr. Kang's injury has just improved. It's inevitable that he will be tired after standing for a long time. Come and sit here."

As Mo Shangyou spoke, he took Zuo Feng around the long screen and came to a hall at the back. Two armchairs were placed together in the center, and ten chairs were neatly placed on each side. It seemed reasonable to say that this was a meeting hall.

But in fact, Zuo Feng understood that this was Mo Shangyou's private room, because a corner door could be seen on the wall. Although the corner door was half-closed, it was clear that it was his bedroom.

The two sat down as host and guest, and Zuo Feng spoke first, saying, "Thank you for your concern, Manager Mo. My injuries have improved after two days of treatment. Although it will take some time to fully recover, Doctor Feng said that after my injuries are cured, there will be no hidden dangers."

Mo Shangyou was not surprised by this, but he still pretended to be "surprised" and said, "Oh, if that's the case, it's really a cause for celebration. I'm usually busy with worldly affairs, otherwise I should have come to visit you, but I have to trouble you to make this trip."

Looking at Mo Shangyou in front of him, Zuo Feng sneered in his heart. 'Buoyed by worldly affairs? You look like you're going to be bored. The nightgown you wear under your coat is still faintly visible. I guess you were still sleeping before I came. ’

Although he saw through it, Zuo Feng couldn’t say it out loud. Instead, he smiled and said, “As a junior, I have been bothering you for many days. It is my duty to come and pay my respects to you. Manager Mo, please don’t be polite to me in the future.”

Mo Shangyou smiled and said, “Okay, let’s not be polite. Come, have some tea.”
