Numb.
Everyone in the hall had gone numb!
The formidable Nine Dao Venerable had suddenly withdrawn his power and bowed to greet the newcomer—already beyond all expectation. Yet when the other man openly declared he was here to rob them, Nine Dao Venerable still smiled and offered up the treasure?
Wasn't that like getting slapped on the right cheek, then offering up the left?
If even Nine Dao Venerable could humble himself to such an extent, this man's cultivation was far beyond everyone's imagination!
Such a powerful man had actually come to Sunshine Island?
It was simply unbelievable!
Shock spread through the crowd. Including the sect masters of the Three Great Heavenly Sects, hundreds of people stood frozen and stared from afar. Though they were only several yards away, not one of them dared move a single step, as though the entire venue had been locked down by an invisible aura!
The people on the stage had turned pale with fright.
In Liu Yuantai's eyes, concealed reverence kept surfacing. Even as he looked only at that man's back, the terror in his heart grew ever thicker.
However.
The ruthless figure in their eyes was even more bewildered than they were!
Yi Feng was dumbfounded.
He had clearly just made a fierce declaration that he was here to rob them.
In theory, the rightful owner should have ordered his men to attack and kill him—the bandit openly robbing treasures in public.
But instead, the man showed no temper at all and even said he wanted to give him the treasure?
What happened to being beaten to death on the spot?
The examples he had heard in the rumors weren't like this!
Had he acted a little too hard and scared the old man stupid?
Please don't let that be the case...
