Su Mu held the list in his hand, a smile on his face.
"Kid, hand over the list!"
The moment Su Mu received the list, someone's expression turned cold, and they stared directly at Su Mu.
This is a list formed from the very essence of heaven and earth; who knows if it has any other functions?
In short, such a treasure could not possibly fall into the hands of an unknown nobody. If they were to obtain such a treasure, they would undoubtedly reap countless benefits.
Upon hearing this, Su Mu ignored the speaker and instead began to carefully perceive the extraordinary nature of the ranking list.
Just then, a cultivator dressed in sword robes stepped forward; judging from his appearance, he seemed to be a disciple of the Immortal Hidden Sect.
"I am Ji Xin, a disciple of the Immortal Hidden Sect. When the Hundred Flowers Fairy Ranking was announced, it went astray and was not meant for you. Please hand it over, and my Immortal Hidden Sect will be indebted to you in the future."
Disciple of the Immortal Hidden Sect?
Su Mu ignored the other person and continued to carefully sense the strangeness within.
Upon seeing this, Ji Xin's face immediately turned cold, and her expression became somewhat impatient.
"You are merely a scholar, while this is a priceless treasure, not something you can lay a finger on. This belongs to our righteous sects; if you hand it over now, you will be rewarded handsomely."
Don't you like Spirit Stone? Here are ten thousand Spirit Stone; consider it a reward for your hard work."
As she spoke, Ji Xin took out her Storage Bag and casually waved her hand, and a small pile of Spirit Stone immediately floated in front of her.
Su Mu couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, thinking about how much calligraphy he had just used to attract this treasure of heaven and earth to his hands.
And now, this guy actually wants 10,000 Spirit Stone to take this treasure away.
Su Mu couldn't help but sneer, "Who do you think you are, to deserve this Hundred Flowers Ranking?"
Having sensed the extraordinary nature of the Hundred Flowers Ranking, Su Mu had no intention of handing it over.
At that moment, they didn't take what the other person said seriously at all.
"Speaking such nonsense! Judging from your appearance, you're asking for death!"
Ji Xin hadn't expected that even after she brought up the Immortal Hidden Sect, Su Mu would still dare to treat her so casually, and her face immediately turned icy cold.
"Boy, I think you'd better think carefully before you speak. The Immortal Hidden Sect has stood here for countless years, and you dare to look down on it like this? Aren't you afraid of ending up on the Wanted Pillar!"
The Wanted Pillar is a bounty list issued by the Immortal Hidden Sect, and Su Mu is at the top of the list.
Every so often, disciples with extremely high cultivation levels would step forward and target those cultivators whose names had not yet been erased from the list.
Generally speaking, few cultivators who are listed on the Wanted Pillar survive for more than a year.
"Just obediently hand over the Hundred Flowers Fairy Ranking. This is not something you can lay a finger on. Give it to my Green Bamboo Sect and I'll guarantee you safety from now on."
Another cultivator blocked Su Mu's path, and with a flick of his wrist, a long sword appeared in his hand.
It seemed as if they would kill Su Mu at the slightest disagreement.
However, they didn't rush to make a move. The Hundred Flowers Fairy Ranking was right there, Su Mu naturally couldn't take it away.
What they were concerned about was how to get their hands on the goods after Su Mu handed them over.
This is a very important issue.
After all, even among those from the same sect, there is competition, let alone those who are not from the same sect as these cultivators.
"Making him hand it over is correct, but why should we give it to your Green Bamboo Sect?"
Ji Xin frowned and looked coldly at the Green Bamboo Sect disciple.
"That's not for your Immortal Hidden Sect."
Just as Ji Xin finished speaking, a voice rang out. Everyone looked over and saw a monk with six ordination scars on his head appear beside them.
The monk had a shaved head, his hands clasped together, and he chanted a Buddhist mantra.
With a compassionate expression, he said, "All of you benefactors have been aroused by greed and anger because of this Hundred Flowers Fairy Ranking. This will easily disturb your spiritual practice. It would be better to leave this item in the temple for our Buddhist Sect to guard, thus avoiding any bloodshed among you."
"Even that old bald monk has succumbed to greed, and he still claims to be detached from all worldly desires?"
Seeing this, Mi Hongling sneered, her voice full of disdain.
"Amitabha Buddha, it is not that I have been driven by greed, but this humble monk truly does not wish to see you all commit murder because of this. The Buddha is compassionate, and thus this is to deliver all sentient beings."
This guy is utterly shameless!
Upon hearing this, everyone cursed under their breath.
I knew that bald monks were shameless, but I never imagined that they could be this shameless when it comes to stealing treasure.
Su Mu's eyes narrowed slightly. These guys still had their treasures in his hands, yet they were treating them like unclaimed property and starting to distribute them arbitrarily?
"Gentlemen, please stop arguing. Let this young man put down the treasure first. I've noticed he's been holding it for a while, as if he's trying to understand it."
Seeing so many people eyeing this treasure, Ji Xin glanced at Ruan Wenyou and felt slightly more at ease.
No matter what, with the Holy Maiden here, the Immortal Hidden Sect should not suffer any losses.
But when his eyes flickered slightly and he saw Su Mu seemingly comprehending a supreme treasure, he couldn't help but speak up.
This treasure is beyond Su Mu's reach!
Seeing that Su Mu was still clinging to the treasure, he was getting impatient.
Doesn't this kid have any sense of responsibility? Does he really think that just because this treasure is in his hands, it's his? How naive!
Upon hearing this, everyone else turned to look at Su Mu, and their expressions turned cold upon seeing him.
Su Mu does seem to be comprehending a priceless treasure right now. But this thing doesn't belong to Su Mu. What is he trying to comprehend? Does he want to claim it for himself?
"Boy, put down your treasure and get out of here right now, or don't blame me for killing you right here!"
The cultivators nearby frowned, their anger already rising.
Su Mu now understood some of the effects of the Hundred Flowers Fairy Ranking, and raised his head.
"How laughable! This treasure was bestowed upon you because of me. When did it become yours? You call yourselves a righteous sect, but you are nothing but hypocrites."
"Is this kid looking for death?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Xin's face turned cold, already showing her impatience.
"Enough, send this brat to his death. How dare a mere scholar speak to us like this? Does he truly not know the hierarchy among cultivators?"
The hierarchy among cultivators is extremely strict. Someone like Su Mu, who dares to provoke a high-level cultivator, would certainly be killed.
The others nodded, their eyes devoid of any emotion.
At this moment, countless female cultivators also flew over, their eyes all fixed on the Hundred Flowers Fairy Ranking in Su Mu's hand.
They showed no reaction to the others' words about killing Su Mu; Su Mu's death was his death, and it had little to do with them.
