"No, I wouldn't dare."
Yan Feng responded, but inside he was filled with immense fear and extreme tension.
Taking Ye Xuan to the treasure vault like this was still a great risk for him.
Once exposed, given his strength, it will be difficult for him to escape the Blood Baleful Intent Sect.
However, things had already come to this point, and there was no turning back for him.
As the two continued their journey, they encountered many disciples of the Blood Baleful Intent Sect.
Apart from a very small number of disciples who greeted Yan Feng, the rest completely Yan Feng.
As for Ye Xuan, nobody cared about him at all.
With Yan Feng leading the way, they all treated Ye Xuan as a newly initiated disciple and couldn't be bothered to pay him any attention.
Soon, the two arrived in front of a huge pavilion.
This pavilion has nine stories, and the plaque in the very center bears three powerful characters: Treasure Pavilion.
Inside a small room in the Cangbao Pavilion, an old man sat upright with his head bowed and eyes lowered, as if he were asleep.
Yan Feng looked at the old man and immediately became even more nervous.
"This is the treasure vault. The resources inside should be on the underground level, and there aren't many powerful guards."
"He is the guardian elder of this place, and also the strongest guardian here, with Emperor Realm First Layer."
Yan Feng looked at the drowsy elder and nervously transmitted his voice, sweat beading on his body.
He was only at the Mid-Stage Half-Emperor; how could he not be afraid when facing an elder at the Emperor Realm?
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but curse inwardly.
This isn't an elder at the Emperor Realm First Layer, it's clearly at the Emperor Realm Third Layer!
His spiritual sense had already discerned the other party's cultivation level. Moreover, to confirm this, he also inquired with the one in the divine palace.
A powerful expert at the Emperor Realm Third Layer is pretending to be at the Emperor Realm First Layer while guarding this place. I have to say, this old guy is cunning.
"Ahem, Yan Feng, is this a newly initiated disciple?"
Just as Ye Xuan was internally complaining, Elder Hao opened his eyes, his murky gaze falling on Hao Jun and Ye Xuan.
"Yes, yes, disciple Yan Feng greets Elder Hao. This is a good friend of mine who has just joined the Blood Baleful Intent Sect. I would like to take him to see the treasure pavilion."
Yan Feng felt Elder Hao's gaze and was immediately startled. He quickly lowered his head and said respectfully.
"Oh, I see." Elder Hao nodded, his spiritual sense instantly landing on Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan sensed Elder Hao's spiritual sense probing and sneered inwardly.
On the surface, he adopted a look of utmost trepidation, quickly bowing his head, clasping his hands in a respectful greeting, and saying, "Greetings, Hao—"
However, before his voice could even finish, he concealed his aura, unleashed the Soaring Wandering Dragon Steps, and with a thunderous boom, vanished from his spot.
Elder Hao had initially relaxed upon seeing Ye Xuan bow, and given that this was the Blood Baleful Intent Sect, he was already on his guard.
But when he realized that Ye Xuan had disappeared, his expression changed.
His spiritual sense swept across the surroundings, trying to lock onto Ye Xuan in an instant, but he was horrified to find that Ye Xuan had vanished.
Just then, Ye Xuan appeared behind him, his power erupting instantly. The Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword unleashed a dazzling light and slashed down directly.
Slay an Immortal with One Sword!
"You--"
Elder Hao sensed the danger and was terrified, but it was too late to escape.
He had barely uttered the word "you" when, with a soft "pfft," the Seven Star Dragon Source Sword had already struck him.
Boom!
A loud bang.
My soul exploded!
"Wait here for a bit, I'll be right back."
Ye Xuan's voice came, and the next moment, Yan Feng was shocked to find himself in the spot where Elder Hao had been, and quickly transformed into his appearance.
Ye Xuan, however, had vanished in an instant.
Ye Xuan had already explored the treasure pavilion and knew where the resources were, so after entering, he began a frenzied sweep.
The disciples guarding the treasure pavilion, as well as the cultivators inside, were all somewhat astonished upon seeing Ye Xuan.
However, Ye Xuan didn't give them any chance at all. Almost the instant those people saw Ye Xuan, they were instantly killed by Ye Xuan.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Ye Xuan had already walked out of the treasure pavilion, and then, with Yan Feng, they quickly disappeared from the spot.
Deep within the Blood Baleful Intent Sect.
Inside a magnificent palace, a cultivator who had been meditating with his eyes closed opened them.
This person was none other than the Seventh Level of the Emperor Realm expert left behind by the Blood Baleful Intent Sect, the Elder Gong Yan Feng.
