"Qianxue Ancestor, you said you would not compete for this Brocade Cloud Heavenly Plant. Was that true?"
After a moment of silence, seeing the Brocade Clouds forming in the sky grow larger and the fragrance grow richer, someone finally could not hold back any longer and shouted.
The commotion caused by the Brocade Clouds was immense, and more and more powerful experts would be drawn here. If they delayed any longer, even if Qianxue Ancestor did not join the fight, it would only become harder for them.
They had to make a decision immediately.
"Hmph, of course..." Questioned by others, Qianxue Ancestor's face darkened. Just as he was about to say the words "of course," a shriek rang out.
"Oh no, the Brocade Cloud Heavenly Plant has been taken..."
Hearing this, everyone hurriedly looked toward the precious medicinal plant at the center, only to find empty space. There was not even the faintest trace of it.
Many people who had been staring fixedly at the Brocade Cloud Heavenly Plant only felt their vision blur. The medicinal plant had vanished into thin air, as though it had never appeared at all.
"How did it disappear?"
"Damn it, who made a move?"
"Despicable... who was it?"
With the target suddenly gone, the crowd immediately erupted.
"Qianxue Ancestor—it must have been him! Among us, the only one capable of silently snatching the Brocade Cloud Heavenly Plant without anyone noticing is him! Damn it, as a Ruler, he actually goes back on his word. His words are nothing but farts—he is utterly shameless! That so-called search for a fugitive earlier was a lie from the start; his goal was this medicinal plant..."
Before the crowd could recover from the shock of the medicinal plant's disappearance, a shout rang out, crystal clear to every ear.
