"Luo Cheng, you're just a bastard, what right do you have to compete with me? Do you have the ability and qualifications to do so? Can you compete with me? " Luo Yan replied coldly.
"If we don't fight, how do you know I will lose?" Luo Cheng roared back with bloodshot eyes.
The quarrel between the two sides attracted countless gazes from the surroundings. Some people who knew a little about the internal affairs also watched the fight from the sidelines coldly.
After taking a deep breath, Luo Yan calmed down.
There was no point in continuing to argue about it, as it was a waste of time to let others see him as a joke. After all, he wasn't some unskilled foppish young master with a lot of scheming.
Luo Yan ignored Luo Cheng and his gaze moved past him to the two foreign delegates.
"Gentlemen, have you considered your options?"
To openly rope in the helpers that Luo Cheng had hired in front of Luo Cheng was a great insult. However, it was not a big problem for him to do so with reason.
Although Old Di and Yu Fei were a little closer to Luo Cheng, in the end, they were still the foreign delegates of the Star Gauze Luo clan. It made sense for them to listen to Luo Yan's orders.
Luo Cheng gritted his teeth and clenched his fists until they turned purple. He was trying his best to endure.
The two Guest Warriors looked at each other and shook their heads. "Third Young Master must be joking."
"That's too bad."
This result was also within Luo Yan's expectations. He had never expected that he would be able to coax Luo Cheng's two great helpers with just a simple 'try to rope'. That would be unrealistic.
"This dragon palace relic is no small matter, it is extremely dangerous. Although you have two foreign delegates protecting you and you are safe, it is almost impossible for you to reap any rewards. This brother will give you a word of advice." Luo Yan lightly threatened.
"I won't trouble you to worry about this, third brother." Luo Cheng said forcefully.
Luo Yan reached out his hand and patted his shoulder, saying, "That's fine too, but big bro should be kind enough to remind you that a helper is more important than a helper. No matter how many bad guys there are, it won't be enough."
"You …"
Immediately, some people were displeased, but they did not dare to flare up.
What Luo Yan said was obviously referring to Chen Xiao and the other cultivators that followed Luo Cheng. The contempt and contempt in their words were simply beyond words.
Upon hearing this, Luo Cheng wasn't angered. Instead, he laughed and said, "I won't trouble third brother to worry about this. I know what I'm doing."
Chen Xiao's strength, as well as the fact that he might have comprehended the threshold of law, was a secret. He would not tell anyone about it.
From Luo Yan's words, he had also scolded Chen Xiao, so it was obvious that he didn't know the other party's background.
This way, Luo Cheng's heart was even more confident.
Previously, the reason why the two Guest Warriors were so eager to recruit Chen Xiao was not only because of their thirst for talent, but also because of Luo Yan.
What Luo Cheng was most worried about was that Chen Xiao, whom he valued the most, would be snatched away by Luo Yan.
After all, in the Stargaze family, his position was lower than Luo Yan's. Even though they were half brothers, the difference in treatment was visible to the naked eye.
This gap came from many sources, such as one's own talent or talent, as well as from others, such as the power and influence of one's mother.
But at this moment, Luo Yan's profligate words dispelled Luo Cheng's worry. At least for the time being, Luo Cheng was already secretly amused within his heart.
"Hmph, don't know what's good for you." After Luo Yan finished his sentence, she no longer paid any attention to him.
Luo Cheng didn't care too much about it. He led the others and found a place to sit down. He quietly waited for the moment the door to the secret warehouse would open.
Apart from Chen Xiao, all the other followers felt a little uncomfortable. Even the two Peak of Sage realm experts felt extremely displeased after hearing Luo Yan's ridicule.
"Brother Chen, what do you think of my third brother?" After resting for a while, Luo Cheng couldn't help but ask.
Chen Xiao smirked and said coldly, "He is very arrogant, but he does have the capital."
A madman without capital is called pretending. A madman with capital is not called crazy. It is a matter of course.
From Chen Xiao's point of view, Luo Yan was at the late Saint realm. His talent and strength were all above Luo Cheng's. Moreover, Luo Yan's follower's strength was also above his.
He was suppressed in every aspect.
Luo Cheng's expression darkened, and he said with extreme helplessness, "You're right. He actually managed to invite three guests. It seems like the Dragon Palace is determined to win this time."
Chen Xiao did not continue the conversation. It was unknown who was the victor of the fight between the deer and the humans. Other than the human race, the biggest threat was the Seafolk, who were eyeing the scene covetously like tigers stalking their prey.
After hesitating for a moment, Luo Cheng couldn't help but ask a question.
"Brother Chen, can you help me this time? If we have your help, along with Elder Di and Elder Yu, our chances of success in this trip will be even greater. "
Chen Xiao shook his head and said, "I won't help anyone. I will only help myself."
Hearing these words, Luo Cheng was not at all disappointed. Instead, he seemed to be deep in thought and was speechless for a moment.
Anyone would be selfish. This was definitely not a lie. Only someone who could speak openly and honestly was worthy of Luo Cheng's attention.
He knew what was going on, so he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he started to narrate to himself.
"Brother Chen, take a look. The old man sitting in front of the golden gate is known as the Iron Operator. His cultivation is average, but his mastery of the mysterious array formations makes him one of the top existences even among the Luo Family's many guests."
Looking at the other man, he is as strong as an ox. His skin is rough, and he is a water element expert who specializes in defense. On the other hand, he is a gloomy woman who is extremely proficient in long-range water techniques.
Anyone that Luo Cheng knew, regardless of whether they were human or marine tribe, would be able to tell Chen Xiao about them as though they were their own.
This information was extremely useful, and he kept it all in his heart.
The two sides remained at peace. Time flowed by, and another half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
The golden door was shaking more and more frequently these days. This meant that the critical moment of breaking through the formation had arrived, and it was getting closer and closer to the time when the secret warehouse would open.
All the cultivators were eager to give it a try.
"Iron-operator, how long until this door opens?" Luo Yan asked somewhat eagerly.
This was something he was extremely anxious about. Putting aside his direct competitor, Luo Cheng, there were other races as well as Sea Race experts. More and more cultivators rushed over, until there were nearly six hundred.
The longer this dragged on, the smaller his advantage would become.
"This formation is very strange, and is maintained and operated by two completely different forces. These two completely different forces not only do not interfere with each other's annihilation, but instead form a kind of mysterious complement, increasing their might. If it wasn't for the fact that the formation has been decaying for far too long, then there's no chance of breaking through the formation at all." The iron operator replied.
Luo Yan's face was full of impatience, "I don't care about that. Just tell me, how can I break the array so quickly?"
