Sword Emperor

After a good chat, both parties were basically happy with each other, or at least very satisfied with each other's prices.    

    

Finally, Lord of Sumeru City wanted to hold a banquet especially for Sun Bing, but he was rejected by Sun Bing. Seeing this, Lord of Sumeru City didn't continue to insist. He ordered the maidservant beside him to bring Sun Bing to the guest room of City Lord's Mansion.    

    

In the following time, Lord of Sumeru City attached great importance to Sun Bing. It was almost to the extent that he had to ask for something.    

    

For example, all kinds of rare delicacies and various kinds of treasures from heaven and earth were sent to Sun Bing. One should know that each and every treasure was extremely precious to a supreme being.    

    

However, Sun Bing had already known that there was a shocking plan hidden in Tree Realm. Even if he didn't see clearly what kind of danger these things posed, he wouldn't accept it so easily.    

    

Time slowly passed. During this period of time, Sun Bing had been sitting cross-legged in the huge guest room. His mind was thinking about what had happened when he entered Meru City to deduce the World Fruit.    

    

On the other side, in a very hidden spatial zone of City Lord's Mansion, two figures were carefully conversing with each other.    

    

"Dad, that man is very vigilant. He hasn't touched any place that we have sent him to for such a long time. He didn't even need to look at the pretty girl that we have kept in our residence."    

    

The one who said this was a young man, and the person opposite him was Lord of Sumeru City.    

    

Unexpectedly, the son that Lord of Sumeru City mentioned was still alive and kicking. Although his Qi was still a little weak, he wasn't affected by it too much.    

    

After hearing these words, the previously calm Lord of Sumeru City's face was filled with joy. He couldn't help but say:    

    

"Good, good, good. It seems like he has sensed something and hasn't absorbed the Innate Spiritual Qi. After waiting for so long, he finally met such a person. It's only a matter of time before he breaks free from his restraints."    

    

"What? He hasn't absorbed the Innate Spiritual Qi yet... If that's the case, our plan should be successful..."    

    

"Of course... I noticed it at first glance. Now, it seems like my guess is correct. You don't have to worry..."    

    

Obviously, Lord of Sumeru City had his own secret plan in the situation that Sun Bing didn't know about.    

    

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. Sun Bing was strolling in a huge garden. All he saw were precious spiritual flowers. He had never seen them in Jiuzhou before.    

    

Each flower was extremely beautiful. The entire garden was filled with colorful flowers, and those spiritual flowers were spitting out Innate Spiritual Qi. Such a scene was definitely the dream of countless people.    

    

Even though Sun Bing didn't absorb the Innate Spiritual Qi that was overflowing from the flowers, he was still amazed by the beautiful scenery in his heart. After that, his heart was filled with a hint of sadness. He wondered how Hua Qiyue would react when she saw this scene.    

    

However, at this moment, a soft sound of footsteps was heard. When he turned around, he saw a majestic figure slowly walking towards him. It was Lord of Sumeru City, whom he hadn't seen for a few days.    

    

In just a few days, Lord of Sumeru City's gloominess had disappeared without a trace. The momentum on his body had become much stronger. When he saw Sun Bing, a smile immediately emerged on his face.    

    

"Fellow Daoist, how's the rest of the seven days going? Are you satisfied with Han She? If you have any other requests, feel free to ask."    

    

"Thank you for your hospitality, Lord of Sumeru City. Since the time has come, I can't stay here any longer. I wonder where I should go."    

    

Sun Bing's face was indifferent. He slowly shook his head and asked softly.    

    

Lord of Sumeru City couldn't help but laugh when he heard him. "Since Fellow Daoist has finished resting, then follow me immediately."    

    

After saying that, he immediately led Sun Bing towards the depths of City Lord's Mansion. As they walked, he explained.    

    

"This World Fruit is a supreme treasure of our Tree Realm. It is extremely precious, and ordinary people have no idea where it grew. Only a few people are qualified to know about it."    

    

Sun Bing could clearly sense that the security around them was getting tighter and tighter. There was even a subtle fluctuation that swept across his body. This was clearly the sign of a supreme being.    

    

However, under Lord of Sumeru City's lead, Sun Bing wasn't stopped. In the end, he passed through the layers of shackles and numerous formations, and finally arrived at the ground of City Lord's Mansion.    

    

After passing through a very tight formation, a powerful wave of energy rushed towards him. Even though Sun Bing had already reached Supreme Stage, he felt like he was suffocating. When he raised his head, he could see a huge root appearing in front of him.    

    

Judging from the Qi that was spreading out, Sun Bing could tell that this was the root of the World Tree, and it was located in the surrounding space. There was also a very obscure spatial fluctuation.    

    

For a moment, Sun Bing's heart was filled with doubt. Could it be that the fight for the World Fruit was under this tree?    

    

If that was the case, it would be really strange.    

    

However, it was also at this moment that Lord of Sumeru City waved his hand. After that, Sun Bing was surprised to find that underneath the incomparably huge root, a blurry door had appeared. Spatial ripples were spreading in all directions.    

    

"Alright, Fellow Daoist. This is the secret of the Tree Realm. The fruit of the World Tree is completely in another spatial zone, or it should be said that it is in the World Tree's body. We only found it after an accident."    

    

Pointing at the blurry door in front of him, Lord of Sumeru City could not help but feel a little emotional. After which, he could not help but continue.    

    

"Although there are still seven days left, there is still a possibility of accidents happening. Therefore, we must enter ahead of time. I hope Fellow Daoist can forgive us."    

    

"It doesn't matter. The salary of the Lord of Food is divided into the worries of the Lord. As long as Daoist Brother doesn't go back on his word, it will be fine."    

    

At this point, the bad feeling in Sun Bing's heart became stronger and stronger. However, since the arrow was already on the bow, he had no choice but to shoot it. Even if he wanted to retreat now, it was impossible. Therefore, he could only helplessly say in the end.    

    

Finally, Lord of Sumeru City took a step forward and disappeared into the hazy door in the blink of an eye.    

    

As for Sun Bing, he let out a long sigh and slowly followed the figure in front of him.    

    

However, when Sun Bing moved, he didn't notice that when he saw Sun Bing's movement behind him, the corner of Lord of Sumeru City's mouth revealed an unnoticeable smile. Although it looked ordinary, it was filled with coldness.    

    

In an instant, just like the previous Lord of Sumeru City, Sun Bing had completely disappeared from where he stood and entered the hazy spatial zone.
