Only, he said angrily, "Hmph, that sounds nice, but when all was said and done, wasn't it still about seizing the treasure!"
"Since that's the case, why bother spouting so much high-sounding nonsense!"
"This Half-Immortal Artifact Treasure Umbrella is already the property of my Blood Sea Pavilion. If you want it... then let our hands decide the truth!"
As he spoke, Daoist Zeshan's aura surged once more, murderous intent boiling around him.
Profound Clarity Cave Master's words had invisibly given the others still watching from the sidelines an excuse to make their move.
How could he fail to see such sinister intentions?
But he reacted swiftly as well. Enduring his injuries, he decisively gathered his True Yuan, intending to define this struggle over the treasure as a contest solely between the two of them.
Profound Clarity Cave Master's expression did not change as she calmly continued, "High-sounding nonsense? Only an Evil Cultivator like you would think that way."
"This old woman is not as filthy-minded as you imagine. This old woman fights for this treasure only to return it to the Ancient Immortal Sect, so that the thousands of years of sacrifice made by the Ancient Immortal Sect will not have been in vain."
"If I betray this intention, may Heavenly Tribulation descend upon me one day and take my life!"
At the end of her words, Profound Clarity Cave Master suddenly grew solemn and raised her head toward the sky.
She was actually making a Heavenly Tribulation oath before everyone!
This reaction left everyone present stunned, their faces filled with astonishment.
No one had expected Profound Clarity Cave Master to pull such a move.
Making a Heavenly Tribulation oath in public was practically the same as giving up the fight over this Half-Immortal Artifact Treasure Umbrella!
Could it be...
