From Shrouding the Heavens, Stealing Heavenly Secrets - Section 728

"Crack!"

As the Vine Net tightened, the Thatched Hut was instantly bound securely. However, the scene they had expected—where the Treasure Technique crushed the hut, the people inside were restrained by vines, and Lin Cang finally shot Li Zhi dead—did not occur.

Instead, the vines seemed to have encountered a sturdy fortress. Wrapped around the Thatched Hut, they simply went taut.

"Friends outside, have you come to take this king's life?" At that moment, Li Zhi's calm voice came from inside the hut.

"Brother Cang, he's a Marquis." One young man was not very proficient in the Green Vine Treasure Technique of the Hundred Forest Clan. After activating it, he could not maintain it for long. When he heard Li Zhi's voice, which sounded like the judgment of the Human race's ruler, he was instantly startled, and the Treasure Technique in his hand collapsed.

"What Marquis? It's all fake. Don't let his voice confuse you. The materials used to build this hut are merely rather sturdy. Switch to the Spirit Devouring Flower Treasure Technique and swallow this hut." Lin Cang seemed unaffected by Li Zhi and continued calmly directing the others to surround and bind the hut.

"We have no enmity with you, yet you intend to hunt this king down. Such a crime deserves death." Hearing that they intended to use the Spirit Devouring Flower Treasure Technique against him, Li Zhi spoke again.

The Spiritual Flower was a carnivorous plant in the Great Wilderness. It grew by devouring the flesh and blood of various creatures and was skilled at disguising itself, making it a killer hidden within the Great Wilderness. Although the Spirit Devouring Flower Treasure Technique was not powerful, it had little trouble killing creatures below the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"Brother Cang, could he really be a Marquis?"
