Calculating

"Oh, shouldn't everything have a first come, first served policy? Why should I hand over what I gained from this trip?"

Yang Qingyun gave the other party a deep look, and said calmly.

"Why? Hahahaha!"

Zhao Qing threw his head back and laughed, seeing something incredibly funny.

"Because under the heavens, all land belongs to the king, and because we of the Six Doors are ordered by His Majesty to collect rare treasures from across the land. Everything under heaven belongs to His Majesty!"

"And because if you don't hand it over, you will die!"

Zhao Qing's face was full of cold mockery.

"Enough with the nonsense. What did you find inside! Hand it all over to this squad leader!"

"Otherwise, don't blame this squad leader for being impolite!"

Zhao Qing snorted coldly.

As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

This was his plan!

As a member of the Six Doors, he knew one thing very well from years of searching for rare treasures across the land: where there are treasures, there must be danger!

In the past, several subordinates had died in the dangers of exploring strange and exotic places!

It was precisely because of this, that when he discovered Wang Zhu's tracks, he didn't act immediately.

He wanted to see, in this remote corner of the mountains, who had the audacity to dare to spy on the people of the Six Doors!

At the same time, he had a plan in mind.

If the other party's target was also the legend of the Mountain God in Green Stone Village, then he could hide and observe the other party's strength.

If the other party was powerful, he would directly call for reinforcements from above.

If their strength was not great, then he could let the other party go first, to trigger the dangers of the rare treasures, while he would sit back and wait for the harvest.

At that time, he would not only gain merit for free.

If the rare treasure was extremely valuable, he could even pocket it for himself to improve his strength. As for the Six Doors, this damned organization had long been rotten, only suppressing talented individuals. He had long had thoughts of leaving!

If he gained enough, he wouldn't mind betraying them and leaving!

Therefore, Zhao Qing played along with the plan, deliberately leaking some of the Six Doors' internal secrets about collecting rare treasures during their conversation. The next day, he staged a scene, finding the so-called hunter as a guide and entering the mountains.

Wang Zhu thought he had succeeded, but in reality, as soon as they entered the mountains, the hunter was controlled. Under coercion and enticement, he revealed everything about being bribed.

He even revealed the Spirit Ginseng that the other party had obtained from the Mountain God's area.

This further convinced Zhao Qing that there must be a great treasure here!

So they hid in the shadows and monitored, until Wang Xiaoshi brought Yang Qingyun and they quickly headed to the location where the "Mountain God" had descended years ago, preparing to seize the treasure within ahead of time.

Everything was seen by him.

With his eyesight, he could naturally tell that Yang Qingyun, hidden behind, was merely an insignificant cultivator at the Entering the Realm stage.

Zhao Qing felt that he had it all under control!

Everything would be in his grasp!

He just needed to sit back and wait for those people to explore and clear out all the dangers.

Whether the other party succeeded or failed, he would ultimately be the final winner!

And in fact, things went as he expected.

Until he controlled Wang Zhu and his son Wang Xiaoshi, and waited outside for an hour. Seeing no movement from inside, he wondered if that kid had died in there.

So he decided to test the waters.

Which led to the scene before them.

He hadn't expected the other party to still be alive.

But it didn't matter.

A mere kid who had just Entered the Realm.

He could kill him with one hand!

"Kid, I advise you to be sensible. If you offend the Six Doors, there will be no place for you in this world from now on!"

Zhao Qing's face was filled with the confidence of having everything under control.

A moment of silence followed.

Yang Qingyun sighed.

"I was wrong to misjudge. That's right, no matter how clever Wang Zhu was, he was just a farmer not long ago. How could he possibly monitor a Six Doors squad leader, especially you!"

"It was my oversight!"

Yang Qingyun gave Zhao Qing a deep look.

Previously, he had only felt a sense of familiarity, but now he was certain.

Although Zhao Qing in front of him only appeared to be in the Body Tempering Realm, he would not be an insignificant figure in the future.

About ten years later, he would comprehend Innate Divine Intent with his Primordial Extreme Overlord Saber and officially advance to the Innate realm.

Then, for some unknown reason, he was wanted by the Six Doors, engaged in a fierce battle with them, and ultimately escaped capture by fighting three opponents alone, becoming the thirteenth ranked individual on the Six Doors' Black List!

At that time, Yang Qingyun had never met him.

But as a rising star in the martial world, he had naturally garnered much discussion everywhere, Even someone like Yang Qingyun, who was just an unremarkable passerby diligently striving in the martial world back then, had heard of his deeds.

According to rumors in the martial world, Zhao Qing was originally an inconspicuous squad leader in the Six Doors, in the Body Tempering Realm. However, his past achievements were often stolen by his superiors, and his future was suppressed.

Enraged, he defected from the Six Doors and took a treasure with him.

Afterward, he went into hiding, changed his identity, and joined the Night Roaming Tower, a top assassin organization in the Chu Kingdom's martial world.

With that treasure, Zhao Qing underwent Marrow Cleansing and Tendon Changing in the following years, significantly improving his aptitude. He then honed his skills through the platform of the Night Roaming Tower, his strength advancing by leaps and bounds!

When he fled back then, he was almost thirty years old, but his strength was only at the middle stage of Body Tempering. He should have been someone whose potential was exhausted and had little hope of future achievement.

Yet, in the following decade, he consecutively broke through to Blood Changing, Viscera Refining, and finally Innate!

Such a transformation and late blooming experience naturally caused a sensation in the martial world.

Especially the treasure he stole from the Six Doors, which could allow a martial artist to defy fate and change their destiny, sparked much discussion.

Many people speculated about the origin of the treasure, imagining what achievements they might accomplish if they were to obtain such a treasure one day.

Many even took action for it.

At that time, Yang Qingyun naturally had similar thoughts.

However, by then, the other party was already a high and mighty Innate expert, while he was merely a second-rate Blood Changing realm cultivator.

Given the vast difference in strength, Yang Qingyun had no intention of seeking death.

Until the future Spiritual Qi Resurgence, Zhao Qing even advanced to the Grandmaster realm.

Later, he seemed to have died in a terrible upheaval, and his whereabouts in the martial world were no longer known.

"After all, he was a future Grandmaster. Even before his rise, he must have possessed extraordinary qualities!"

A thought flashed through Yang Qingyun's mind.

However, he didn't feel much fear.

Even if he was a future Grandmaster, At this moment, He was merely an ordinary martial artist in the Body Tempering Realm.

He took out the jade bottle containing the Jade Dew from his embrace, held the mouth of the bottle, and displayed it in front of him.

"This is what I obtained inside. But how can I be sure that if you get what you want, you will let me go?"

Yang Qingyun's voice was leisurely, his face showing no discernible expression.

And at this moment, Zhao Qing's

gaze was no longer on him.

At this moment, his vision was fixed on the jade bottle, which emitted a faint jade-green light from within, and through the semi-transparent jade bottle, a ball of crystal-clear liquid could be vaguely seen.

His pupils constricted to the size of needle tips!

"Spiritual essence manifesting, this is a Grade Three rare treasure!"
