“Well done.”
Shangguan Sheng nodded in satisfaction.
“Next, we just have to wait.”
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and the others looked at the teleportation arrays that were temporarily closed to the public with a frown.
Was there really such a coincidence in this world?
Just as they were about to return to Liang Nation through the teleportation array, they were told that the teleportation array to other nations was temporarily closed to the public.
Was this an excuse or a method to deal with them?
At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan concealed themselves.
After waiting for a while, they saw other cultivators wanting to take the teleportation array.
Just a moment ago, they were told that the teleportation array to other nations was temporarily closed, but now, it was opened for others…
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan narrowed their eyes.
At this point, even a fool would know that they were targeted.
The only thing they could not be sure of was who was targeting them.
Daoist Tong Hai?
Or was it the Young Marquis?
Or was it someone else?
They had never had a grudge against anyone or made any enemies in the Zheng Nation.
The only possibility left was that someone wanted to kill them for the possessions.
It was really unexpected that a mere Cave Vermillion Fruit was enough to bring out the worst in people.
At the same time, this also showed that the cultivation world of the Zheng Nation was much more chaotic than the Liang, Yun, and Yan Nations.
The law of the jungle where the strong preyed on the weak was vividly reflected.
“Brother Jiang, Sister Shen, what should we do now?”
Liu Linglong clearly realized their difficult situation.
Her expression was troubled.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan looked at each other.
Jiang Chengxuan said, “Since they don’t want us to leave this place, we might as well do as they wish.
At most, we’ll go to the Shu Nation first and take the teleportation array back to Liang Nation therein.
Anyway, the Shu Nation was not far from the Zheng Nation.
1 don’t believe that they can exert influence in the territory of the Shu Nation.”
In fact.
Jiang Chengxuan left something unsaid.
That was, he wanted to see who the person hiding behind the scenes was.
With his and Shen Ruyan’s current strength, they had nothing to be afraid of unless it was a Golden Core.
Moreover, even if they were really unlucky to encounter a Golden Core, with their methods and trump cards, it was not completely impossible for them to escape unscathed.
Soon, Jiang Chengxuan and the others arrived at the exit of the market.
Then, Jiang Chengxuan took out a low-grade Level 3 treasure ship from his body.
After they all boarded the treasure ship, they quickly left the Hundred Treasure Market.
Not long after Jiang Chengxuan and the others left, four late-stage Violet Palace spiritual pressures disappeared from the Hundred Treasure Market.
They were Shangguan Sheng, Elder Wang, Ouyang Xuan, and Alchemist Lu Ming.
About twenty minutes later,
Jiang Chengxuan and the others, who were driving the Level 3 treasure ship, suddenly sensed something and could not help but turn around.
There, four streaks of light were rapidly approaching their treasure ship.
This made Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan narrow their eyes.
Liu Linglong’s expression changed drastically as she said,
“It’s them!”
“Yes.”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were not particularly surprised to see Shangguan Sheng, but the appearance of Elder Wang caught them off guard.
However, they quickly reacted.
From the looks of it, he should be a cultivator or a guest elder nurtured by the Shangguan family.
It seemed that Shangguan Sheng was well prepared.
A trace of coldness flashed across Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes.
He and Shen Ruyan looked at each other and made up their minds.
At the same time.
Shangguan Sheng, Elder Wang, Ouyang Xuan, and Alchemist Lu Ming were already approaching the treasure ship that Jiang Chengxuan and the others were on.
Shangguan Sheng was the first to speak.
“Since you have come to the Zheng Nation, why are you in such a hurry to leave?
I still have something to ask of you. Please help me.”
As he spoke, Shangguan Sheng and the other three had already caught up to Jiang Chengxuan’s treasure ship.
Moreover, the four of them surrounded the treasure ship from four directions.
Upon seeing this, Liu Linglong’s beautiful eyes immediately revealed a hint of anger.
She looked at Shangguan Sheng and said coldly,
“Young Marquis, is this attitude you are supposed to have when you are asking for help?
Aren’t you going overboard?”
Well…’
Shangguan Sheng sized up Liu Linglong. He smiled faintly and said,
“Hehe, I think you have misunderstood me.
Whether 1 go overboard or not now is actually not up to me, but up to you.”
Before Liu Linglong or Jiang Chengxuan could speak, Shangguan Sheng continued,
“When we were at the Trade Fair just now, I saw that you seemed to have many treasures on you.
Coincidentally, I lack a batch of cultivation resources recently.
Especially ones that can strengthen the soul.
If you are willing to part with your treasures and give them to me, 1 will apologize for my impudent behavior. What do you think?”
To put it bluntly, he, Shangguan Sheng, wanted to take what Jiang Chengxuan and the others had for free.
Jiang Chengxuan sneered.
“What if we don’t have the things you want?”
Jiang Chengxuan suddenly said.
Hearing his words, Shangguan Sheng’s eyes narrowed slightly before he smiled.
“Is that so?
Then, we will have to trouble you to hand over the storage rings in your hands to us for inspection.
If there’s nothing on you that we need, we’ll let you leave. How about that?”
Handing over my storage ring for inspection?
He actually has the cheeks to say that!
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were no longer in the mood to talk nonsense with these guys. Their expressions turned cold as they slowly spat out two words.
“Get lost!”
“What did you say?”
These words put a frown on Shangguan Sheng and the others’ faces.
Shangguan Sheng could no longer be bothered to keep up his disguise and looked at Jiang Chengxuan and the others coldly.
“You wanted to treat you nicely but you wouldn’t appreciate it.
In that case, don’t blame us for being rude!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he made a move.
He raised his hand and waved.
A spear with an orange surface suddenly charged towards Jiang Chengxuan and the others!
Elder Wang, Ouyang Xuan, and Alchemist Lu Ming, who were with him, did not stay idle and attacked at the same time.
Elder Wang extended his hand.
A long saber wrapped in lightning instantly slashed towards the Level 3 treasure ship.
Clearly, he had the intention to destroy the treasure shop first.
As for Ouyang Xuan and Alchemist Lu Ming…
The former opened his mouth and spat.
A flag with countless beautiful women drawn on it appeared in the air.
The phantoms of enchanting women and men kept disturbing Jiang Chengxuan and the others, causing Liu Linglong’s fair face to slowly turn red. Her breathing also became a little heavy.
“Linglong, wake up!”
Crack—
Suddenly, a thunderous sound appeared in Liu Linglong’s ear, pulling her back to reality with a start..
