Should I Give You an Award?!
"Stop talking nonsense and just do it!"
Qian Xi scolded, she wanted to curse.
You guys don't know anything!
Given how treacherous Su Muxue Demoness, she definitely wants to leave everyone else behind as scapegoats!
Qian Xi didn't even need to think to know that Su Muxue had definitely laid some traps outside the exit.
What if we just rush out without paying attention?
That would be exactly what they're looking for!
While they wouldn't be killed, Su Muxue didn't need to kill them all, right? Just holding off the five of them for a moment or two, until the Auction House guards arrived...
Wouldn't that be the end of the world?!
Fight our way out?
Once their identities are exposed, it will bring ruin to the entire Supreme Unity Holy Land!
"Kill!"
Seeing Qian Xi's anger, the four had no choice but to comply, each launching an attack towards the exit before rushing out...
Rumble!!!
The moment they rushed out, a massive explosion occurred outside, along with countless Array Pattern that appeared and various materials collapsed!
They could tell at a glance that those were materials for various formations.
"Hiss!"
"There's a formation set up outside this exit?"
"That person from just now, his skill in array formations is extremely high!"
"Qian Shijie is truly a prophet! If we hadn't acted in advance, we would probably have already fallen into her trap!"
The four were filled with surprise and doubt.
"Snort!"
Qian Xi snorted coldly, "Leave immediately!"
A prophetic genius?!
If I didn't know Su Muxue very well, why would I have been assigned to be the 'team leader'?
At this moment, she felt very troubled.
With such a few naive and innocent teammates, keeping an eye on Su Muxue, especially when there's a possibility of having to take action... the difficulty is just too high.
It was entirely a case of "one god leading four pigs"!
Ugh, this is awful!
Fortunately, this time I have seen through everything and will not be...
"Um!?"
Before she could even feel smug, having just rushed out of the exit and less than a few dozen meters away, Qian Xi suddenly spotted a green figure spraying green liquid and running away at a faster speed than herself.
Immediately afterwards, another ' Scholar ' left even faster than himself.
but...
He had clearly already 'run away,' but then suddenly turned back, gave himself a deep look, and then...
Boom!!!!
The Scholar suddenly threw a punch at their group of five?!
Just one punch!
The heavens are shaken, the sea is cold!
Surrounded by endless laws, the Order Divine Chains crumbled in pieces, and the terrifying fist imprint was as if the heavens and earth had been turned upside down.
"Not good!!!"
Qian Xi's face was deathly pale, as if every cell in her body was screaming!
"Retreat!!!!"
She was terrified and shouted angrily.
That punch was incredibly powerful!
It was so powerful that even she, the previous generation's Eldest Senior Sister of Taiyi, dared not meet it. She could only retreat frantically while using every means to defend herself.
Puff puff puff...
Rumble!!!
The fist imprint was incredibly terrifying, crushing everything in its path. Qian Xi and the other four tried their best, but their methods were as fragile as paper, exploding and shattering one after another under the fist imprint...
They were caught off guard and were eventually blasted back into the Treasure Vault.
even...
The fist imprint landed.
Even the Treasure Vault, protected by multiple terrifying arrays, collapsed in half!
Qian Xi and her group of five, along with hundreds of others who hadn't yet managed to escape, were all caught in the crossfire, sustaining injuries and being buried in the rubble...
Before they could rush out, Dongfang Jianyuan and a large number of 'flowing lights' descended from the sky and surrounded the place.
"My Treasure Vault!!!"
This scene left Dongfang Jianyuan completely dumbfounded and panicked. Especially after he scanned the area with his Divine Sense and discovered that most of the treasures, even those hidden in the 'secret chamber,' had been swept away, his vision went black and he almost collapsed to the ground!
"No, that can't be!"
"Those treasures must be on those people..."
"They certainly wouldn't have time to take it with them."
Dongfang Jianyuan panicked and dared not think any further. He roared, "Surround them all! Don't let a single one escape!"
"Those who disobey will be killed without exception!!!"
The guards of the Three Saints Auction House are all elite cultivators. Although not every one of them is a great power, when they work together, they are invincible below the Immortal Platform!
Rumble!
The ruins exploded one after another.
The buried people jumped out, and the sight of Dongfang Jianyuan and his men made them turn pale...
Qian Xi and his group of five were in particularly dire straits.
Their masks were completely shattered, and their black clothing had vanished without a trace, leaving them almost entirely in their inner armor...
Fortunately, they weren't stupid, and they didn't wear the Daoist robes of the Supreme Unity Holy Land inside, so they weren't recognized at a glance.
but...
At this point, it's no longer a question of whether or not they will be recognized.
Qian Xi was shocked, especially when she felt the extent of her injuries, she almost spat out a mouthful of Essence Blood!
"Who is it?!"
She couldn't believe it.
That's incredible!
That ' Scholar ' is really too strong.
A completely unfamiliar face, which, upon closer inspection, seemed to be only at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, three major realms below him!
Qian Xi's first instinct was that this person was a Rogue Cultivator.
But that punch instantly overturned her understanding!
"Who is it? With such terrifying strength, they must not be an unknown nobody..."
"No, that's not right!"
After mentally reviewing all those with such power, her face turned deathly pale.
"He is by no means just some unknown nobody. With just one punch, he possesses such power. As far as I know, there are no more than ten people like him in the entire Cultivation World!"
"Among them, seven are the ' Holy Master ' of the Seven Great Holy Lands!"
"Who... is this?!"
Qian Xi was completely terrified.
That punch was amazing!
If they hadn't retreated into the formation at the last moment, allowing the Treasure Vault's formation to absorb most of the 'damage,' the five of them, along with the hundreds behind them, would have been instantly killed!
Those few hundred people were nothing to worry about; none of them had even reached the Sendai level, so they couldn't be considered true masters.
But those five were elders of the Supreme Unity Holy Land, all of whom were on the Immortal Platform!
What kind of person could possess such strength?
Could it be that some Holy Master has suddenly appeared?!
"That shouldn't be possible, right?"
The more I think about it, the more scared I get!
Qian Xi felt a chill in her heart. "If they are the Holy Master of the various holy lands, why would they need to hide their heads and conceal their whereabouts?"
Before she could even form a suspect in her mind, Dongfang Jianyuan's angry roar rang in her ears again.
"Take them all down!"
"You have truly eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard, daring to rob my Treasure Vault! Today, I will surely skin you alive, tear out your tendons, and burn you to the ground!"
Dongfang Jianyuan was so angry he felt like he was about to explode; in fact, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar...
The losses are enormous!!!
The entire Treasure Vault was almost completely looted!
It should be noted that as a city for cultivating immortality, the Auction House in the Three Saints City auctions only the treasures needed by cultivators, and these treasures are the finest of the fine!
Furthermore, because cultivators have long lifespans, the auction is only held once every ten years.
Now, there are only six months left until the next auction.
In other words...
Inside the Treasure Vault are almost all the treasures for the next auction!
But now, almost all the treasures have been stolen?!
There were even a few items that the city lord had entrusted to him for auction...
If something goes wrong, how can I bear the responsibility?!
Boom boom boom!
Hundreds of guards unleashed their full power, charging forward menacingly.
Dongfang Jianyuan also unleashed his power, standing there with his terrifying cultivation at the Celestial Platform Third Order suppressing the entire scene. "Take away all their storage equipment, seal their True Essence, and extract the treasures nurtured within their Dantian and divine soul!"
"Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy by our master!"
What else can we do?!
The hundreds of cultivators' expressions changed drastically, filled with regret. Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets!
Among them, the five people, including Qian Xi, were the most distressed...
They are from the Supreme Unity Holy Land!
If they are apprehended, especially after their identities are revealed... that would be a very serious matter.
At this moment, Qian Xi even wanted to lead her junior brothers and sisters to fight their way out.
But we can't break through!
If she hadn't been injured, she would have been no weaker than Dongfang Jianyuan and could have even defeated him, but... there are no ifs!
Moreover, it's not just the Auction House that's been alerted; it's highly likely that the City Lord's Mansion of the Three Saints City has also been alarmed.
Want to break out now?
That would truly be humiliating.
but...
Is Qian Xi a fool?
That's definitely not the case!
At this point, there was no other way. He had already been "begged," so how could he possibly take the blame for Su Muxue?!
She immediately spoke up, "Fellow Daoist, we have merely stumbled into the Treasure Vault by mistake. The real thieves are someone else. They have run off in this direction. Please take men and pursue them immediately..."
"Shut up!"
"You still dare to spout nonsense? Are you trying to lure us away from our base and escape?!"
Dongfang Jianyuan angrily shouted, "Do you think I, the guild master, am a fool?!"
Qian Xi: "??? Everything I said is true..."
"The boss here told you to shut up!!!"
Dongfang Jianyuan took immediate action, suppressing the injured Qian Xi and rendering her unable to speak again...
The other four also suffered the same fate!
After doing all this, Dongfang Jianyuan's face was as cold as ice.
I know everything you said is true, so what? Should I give you an award?!
Someone ran away?
Nonsense!
Do you think I'm stupid?
You lot think you can break through the formation silently and sneak into the Treasure Vault? Who do you think you are?!
Besides, do you think I couldn't see that someone had run away?!
Putting everything else aside, the green herbal extract alone speaks volumes! Not only did someone run away, but there was more than one.
But someone who can shatter multiple formations and destroy most of my Treasure Vault with a single punch—that's no ordinary person!
Should I go after them?
Should we chase after them and get ourselves killed?
The only way now is to capture you all, take back all the treasures you stole, and then...
Let's confiscate all your treasures and see if that makes up for our losses!
If it can't be made up for...
Well!!!
Dongfang Jianyuan sighed inwardly, feeling powerless.
Why bother?!
Why bother?
With such power, what can one ask for is simply a matter of a word.
Who would dare refuse?
Why bother stealing from my small Auction House's Treasure Vault...
I...
Well!
Did they know there was someone else involved, and that this person was the mastermind?
I know, so what?
I dare not investigate further, much less pursue it!
