In the world of h he was the young lord of Sacred Peafowl Mountain, proions, he could not let that slip here Pillfire City was extremely hostile to Veluriyam Capital at present It was better to leave his identity unrevealed rather than risk spoiling the proceedings That hy he’d said that he was from Myriad Abyss Island instead

Myriad Abyss Island was ure out who he was shrank a few degrees fro someone else’s reputation as his own, he couldn’t avoid some petty deceit if he wanted to carry out business here It was a co that it was difficult for heroes to triu Chen was sufficiently heroic, he had to yield before the critical mass of local villains here in Pillfire City He knehen to lay low and when to rise up There isdo one’s responses When he’d first come to Veluriyareat waves without House Wei as a bridge Proceeding without information or support could only end in failure In the worst of circu the events at Veluriyam Capital, his Taiyuan Toouldn’t have been able to open without the Coiling Dragon Clan’s help The Majestic Clan certainly hadChen knew these truths well He’d exhaustively considered the details and possible probleestion was admittedly risky, it was also the best for his current situation If he didn’t participate in the Bounty Arena, he et a chance later to participate in the auction The Star Harvesters’ race aside, he had no authority of speech without a proolden opportunity

“When does the Bounty Arena begin, Yanyu?” Jiang Chen asked

Lin Yanyu actually really wanted hisChen to spread his name far and wide across Pillfire City as a show of do after it made him quite happy “Master, the selection process for the Bounty Arena’s arena lords has already begun,” he answered hastily “The actual event begins a week fron up I can take care if it, if you’d like”

“Wandering cultivators have a hard ti Chen sighed

“Heh, not necessarily” Lin Yanyu’s smile did not abate “The Bounty Arena attracts the attention ofcultivators as well There’s no shortage of past arena lords not tied to a specific faction They’ve chosen assistants for the h their main criterion in this case is individual ability Moreover, any bounties that an assistant collects are split fifty-fifty with the actual arena lord”
