Seeing that his former 'good brothers' were ignoring him, Xu Qing was extremely disappointed. "They're terminally ill, terminally ill! Even the power of love can't save your cold hearts. It seems there's no cure."

"Forget it, if they can't be saved, then so be it. They're all hopeless cases anyway, unworthy of being my family. From today onwards, you're all expelled. There's no place for you in my Love Home."

Xu Qing pointed at the Alien Race experts and said, with an expression that was both heartbroken and utterly disappointed, yet also relieved.

"..."

Upon hearing this, the faces of those Alien Race experts flushed red and then turned pale. This guy... he's utterly shameless!

They used all sorts of underhanded methods to extort money from them before, calling them "good brothers" all the time. Now, they've completely abandoned them, turning their backs on them without any pretense.

"Pfft..." Luo Feng and many others burst out laughing.

"Alas, I didn't want it to be like this either, but there's nothing I can do. I've done everything I could. This is fate, fate indeed," Xu Qing sighed.

The Alien Race experts looked at Xu Qing as if they wanted to devour him, yet they dared not say anything.

"Tsk tsk, your eyes are all red. Do you really like my Love Home that much? It seems you're not beyond redemption. Alright then, I can give you another chance. As long as you sincerely repent, I can let you become family again," Xu Qing immediately changed his tune.

Hearing this, the Alien Race experts were almost laughing in anger. They thought, "Trying to extort us again? What do they take us for?"

"If you are willing to kneel before my palace gates for ten days and ten nights, I will acknowledge your sincerity and accept you back as members of the Love Home. How about that? It's simple, isn't it? Go and do it!" Xu Qing continued.

"You're dreaming!" one of the Immortal from the Monster Race couldn't help but shout.

The Zerg, the Monster Race, and the Automaton Race all glared at Xu Qing, as if he were treating them like slaves.

Xu Qing glanced at them, shook his head, and said, "They're hopeless after all. God, may lightning strike them dead; there's no saving them."

"It seems that firing them was the right thing to do. As wise as I am, I can't let these rotten apples ruin my Love Home."

Rat droppings!

The Alien Race were furious, but none of them had Xu Qing's sharp tongue, able to insult without using foul language.

"Get out of here, you bunch of rotten apples! Don't get so close to me, you stink and spread infectious diseases!" Xu Qing waved his hand, shooing them away.

"This person is really domineering, but such a young Universe Overlord is indeed not a problem at all," the administrators of the Ancestral God Sect and those Special Lifeform all thought so.

Rumble!

Just then, an invisible pressure descended, enveloping the entire Bauhinia Island.

Countless people looked up at the sky, where endless lightning manifested, like a vast sea of lightning descending, obscuring even the Five-Colored Aurora Lake.

A colossal figure emerged from the sea of lightning, its body covered in blue fur, with three hooves and a pair of wings on its back. Its head was held high, and its eyes reflected endless lightning.

Thunder Beast God!

These are the eight strongest beings below the Three Ancestral Gods of the Ancestral God Sect, Universe Master inherited the position of Beast God.

Under this oppressive force, even the Immortal and Venerable on Bauhinia Island could only bow their heads.

"The aura of the Origin Land of the Universe... Could it be that the Ancestral God Sect is truly the spokesperson for the will of the universe?" Xu Qing was surprised; he had only heard of it before.

"I am the Thunder Beast God," the Beast God declared, his voice booming like thunder, shaking Heaven and Earth.

"Successors Blade River Venerable and Rainbow Venerable," the large eyes looked at the two, carrying a hint of goodwill and friendliness.

"Um, that's right, Rainbow Venerable is my Clone, I am Azure Dragon Venerable," Xu Qing corrected.

Immediately following, Luo Feng added, "I am the Galaxy Venerable."

The Beast God was taken aback. Why didn't you say so earlier? Wasn't this making it a little embarrassed?

The people around were stunned. To be so casual in front of the Beast God, wasn't he afraid of being struck by lightning? After all, this was the Thunder Beast God.

However, the Beast God clearly wouldn't mind. "Galaxy, Azure Dragon, you two are excellent. On behalf of the Ancestral God Sect, I will bestow upon you both a treasure."

Upon hearing this, the people on the island were shocked. A Beast God had personally descended to bestow a treasure upon them; this showed how highly the two of them were regarded.

"The Beast God himself has appeared, so it must be Supreme Treasure. Both the Galaxy Venerable and the Azure Dragon Venerable possess Supreme Treasure, and now they're about to obtain Supreme Treasure. Their luck is simply off the charts!"

The inheritors on Bauhinia Island were extremely envious; even Universe Venerable might not possess a single Supreme Treasure.

"Thank you, Beast God," Luo Feng replied.

"Thanks!" Xu Qing echoed.

The Beast God felt something was off when it heard Xu Qing's "thank you," but it didn't pay it any mind and instead summoned two enormous lightning orbs.

The ball of lightning was tens of thousands of kilometers in size, falling downwards, and the lightning slowly dissipated.

Before Xu Qing and Luo Feng, the two large thunderballs had disappeared, replaced by two different treasures.

In front of Luo Feng was a mirror hundreds of kilometers in size, entirely golden, while in front of Xu Qing were two large, teardrop-shaped emeralds.

These two teardrop-shaped emerald gems shimmered with light and exuded a rich aura of the fundamental Law of Wood.

"This is... an earring, isn't it?" Luo Feng was initially a little confused when he saw his reflection in the mirror, but he almost burst out laughing when he saw the oversized earring in front of Xu Qing.

Xu Qing looked at the pair of oversized green earrings and immediately turned into an old man. Why did she have to give him earrings of all things? Did she expect him to wear them out in the future?

However, these earrings seem to be a Supreme Treasure, or even a genuine one.

"Pfft... a pair of earrings!" Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw the pair of earrings in front of Xu Qing.

"That primordial aura... it's Supreme Treasure, and a primordial Supreme Treasure at that!" some powerful beings at the level of Universe Overlord exclaimed, their faces filled with shock.

They couldn't see anything from Luo Feng's mirror, but the primal aura emanating from those earrings was very easy to identify.

They never expected that the Ancestral God Sect would bestow upon the Azure Dragon Venerable a Supreme Treasure of the origin.

Among the many Supreme Treasure, Supreme Treasure of the primordial type are definitely Supreme Treasure the most popular and extremely rare.

Battles between powerful beings can easily burn divine power and damage their divine bodies. However, primordial Supreme Treasure can connect with the Origin Land of the Universe and restore the divine body at an extremely fast speed. Having a primordial Supreme Treasure in hand is of great help in battle.

"Although it is the lowest-grade Law of Wood Origin Supreme Treasure, which can only be used to quickly restore the body's energy and cannot be directly used in battle, Origin Supreme Treasure are rare to begin with, and the Azure Dragon Venerable is extremely lucky," those Universe Overlord exclaimed.

Moreover, even the lowest-grade primordial Supreme Treasure can increase the recovery speed of the divine body by thousands of times, and if it is a high-grade primordial Supreme Treasure, it can even reach as many as 100,000 times.

This means that one can freely burn one's own divine power to fight; burning even a tenth or twentyth of it is nothing.

Primal Supreme Treasure, which allow powerful individuals to confidently unleash their divine power, are of unimaginable value.

These kinds of Supreme Treasure are more effective on those with greater strength; even Universe Overlord and Universe Master desperately need them.

"This is the most suitable treasure for you. Accept it; it will be of great use to you," the Beast God said slowly.

"Yes," Luo Feng nodded.

"Hmm," Xu Qing nodded, then put the oversized earrings away.

After delivering the treasure to Xu Qing and Luo Feng, the Thunder Beast God left, and the sea of thunder quickly dissipated, allowing the Five-Colored Aurora Lake to be seen again.

"Xiao Qing, it seems you got a primordial Supreme Treasure. You've struck gold!" Luo Feng laughed.

"It's just the most common kind. I still have a spatial Origin of Laws Supreme Treasure in my possession," Xu Qing said, pursing his lips. He remembered that he obtained it when he was doing a mission at the Void Cliff.

At the time, he didn't know it was a Supreme Treasure; he only found out later.

"A supreme Supreme Treasure of the Origin of Laws of space?!" Luo Feng's eyes widened. He also possessed a high-level Supreme Treasure of the fundamental laws!

Seeing his curiosity, Xu Qing offered a brief explanation.

"It seems I really shouldn't have dragged you along back then," Luo Feng sighed. Luckily, Xu Qing went a second time, otherwise they would have missed out on a high-grade primordial Supreme Treasure.

"Brother-in-law, would you like one of these earrings?" Xu Qing asked.

Luo Feng refused without hesitation. Although the Origin Supreme Treasure was very appealing, he had the Nether Sea Clone, a perpetual motion machine of divine power, so he had no need for it. Besides, earrings and the like were not suitable for him.

"Alright, I'm going back to familiarize myself with that treasure," Luo Feng said before flying away, eager to figure out what type of treasure the mirror was.

Watching Luo Feng fly away, Xu Qing thought for a moment, then turned and flew towards the Treasure Land of the Ancestral God Sect.

"Look, where did the Azure Dragon Venerable go?"

"That direction should be the treasure trove. It seems the Azure Dragon Venerable wants to obtain another treasure!"

Everyone was astonished to have guessed Xu Qing's thoughts. As expected of that person, he was indeed greedy.

"Could he really find another Supreme Treasure in the treasure trove?" Many people, especially those from the three major factions, did not want to see this outcome.

Seeing Xu Qing obtain the treasure was more painful than killing them.

"Let's go see. If the Azure Dragon Venerable really gets another treasure, that would be amazing!" Many people followed, intending to watch the spectacle.

The treasure trove is a mountain range that stretches as far as the eye can see.

There are 108 of the highest peaks here, each containing 108 of the most precious treasures. Forty-three of the peaks have already been opened, and the treasures inside have been taken.

The last person to unlock the highest peak was Luo Feng, who obtained the silver ancient ship, a Top-Tier Heavy Treasure.

Xu Qing arrived here and headed straight for the dozens of highest peaks.

"Sure enough, he's after the most precious treasure," everyone was even more certain after seeing Xu Qing's actions.

"May God protect him from getting a second treasure," the Alien Race experts cursed inwardly.

At this moment, Xu Qing landed on the first mountain peak.

"Open Sesame!" Xu Qing shouted into the air.

Silence.

The onlookers were somewhat bewildered. "Open Sesame?" What did that mean?

"Hahaha... that's hilarious! Does he really think that just shouting something will open the treasure?" the Alien Race laughed loudly.

"Exactly, if he can get the treasure like this, I'll eat that mountain," a Zerg Universe Venerable sneered.

"Alright, Iron Armor Venerable, if Azure Dragon Venerable gets the treasure, you'd better eat that mountain. Don't go back on your word," many people, eager for a good show, chimed in.

Caught off guard by this cajoling, the Iron Armor Venerable found himself in a difficult position. If he backed down, he would lose face terribly.

"Alright, if he can get the treasure, I'll eat it," the Iron Armor Venerable steeled his heart and agreed.

In his heart, he was frantically cursing Xu Qing for not getting the treasure, otherwise he would have eaten the mountain in front of so many people.

At this point, seeing that the first mountain peak did not react, Xu Qing continued to the second mountain peak.

"Open Sesame!" Xu Qing shouted again, but the second mountain peak still didn't respond.

Next, the third, the fourth... and so on, the twenty-sixth.

Xu Qing visited more than twenty mountain peaks but found nothing; every single peak reacted.

Seeing this, the Iron Armor Venerable breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed he probably wouldn't have to eat this mountain after all.

"It seems that Azure Dragon Venerable is going to return disappointed this time," many people thought.

The most amusing sights of Xu Qing getting his comeuppance were those of the Zerg, Monster Race, and Automaton Race.

However, Xu Qing didn't think much of it. He could refine even the most precious and Supreme Treasure himself, so they were dispensable. He was just here to experience the treasure hunt, try his luck, and have some fun.

So Xu Qing continued to the next mountain peak.

When Xu Qing arrived at the eighty-eighth peak, he shouted again, "Open Sesame!"

Rumble!

Suddenly, the entire mountain peak trembled.

This left everyone stunned. "No way, there really is a treasure to be unearthed!"

"Impossible! How could this be!" The Iron Armor Venerable's eyes widened in disbelief. If Xu Qing had really obtained the treasure, he would be ready to devour the mountain.

"Haha, Iron Armor Venerable, it seems you shouldn't speak too confidently, or you might suffer retribution," the onlookers laughed, mocking him.

The Iron Armor Venerable's face turned ashen, and he couldn't even utter a word.

The other Alien Race experts were glad they hadn't spoken carelessly, otherwise there might have been more than just one Iron Armor Venerable among those who ate the mountain.

"It might not be him yet. There are other people searching for Treasure Land as well," the Iron Armor Venerable retorted stubbornly.

"Then let's wait and see," the others said, not in a hurry, waiting to see the joke.

Above the Treasure Land, the Five-Colored Aurora Lake glowed, and streaks of five-colored Aurora descended, sealing off the mountain peak beneath Xu Qing's feet.

The others could only stay outside and were unable to approach the mountain peak.

"It really is him!" The Iron Armor Venerable's teeth were practically ground to powder; now he was certain he'd devour the mountain.

Everyone was even more shocked to see that it was Xu Qing who triggered the treasure. The Beast God had just bestowed a treasure upon him, and now he had triggered another treasure in the treasure trove. His luck was simply beyond words.

"Unfortunately, every time someone obtains a treasure, the Five-Colored Aurora Lake seals off the area, so outsiders can't know what treasure the person inside has obtained. Only when the person reveals it can outsiders find out," the Ancestral God Sect's administrator said regretfully.
