Initially, the great priest agreed that he would give Chen Xiaobei an opportunity to ask two questions. However, before Chen Xiaobei could finish asking the first question, all 12 priests put on an arrogant look. They seemed as though they were not going to bother answering Chen Xiaobei’s questions nor pay attention to him.
Suddenly, a bad feeling came rushing at him. He realized that he had just stepped into a trap. Judging from the 12 priests’ attitude, Luo Puti was smart enough to notice that there was something with them.
“Great priest! What do you mean by that?! I have already given you the Spiritual Item. All of you here are supposed to be respectable elders! Are you really going to lie to young people like us?!” asked Chen Xiaobei.
“Lie to you? No! I promised you that you will get to ask two questions after you hand us two Spiritual Items! Just ask away! I didn’t forbid you from asking any questions!” said the Great priest.
Upon hearing that, all the other 11 priests started to laugh at Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti in a mocking manner. They seemed to treat the two of them like idiots.
“You were not even paying attention to me when I asked the question! I don’t think it’s even necessary for me to ask those questions anymore!”
“Hehe… I did promise you that I’m letting you ask me two questions. However! I did not promise you that I’m going to answer your questions! Since we have no intentions to answer your questions, why should we even pay attention to them in the first place?”
“You…”
Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti frowned once they knew that the Great priest had just tricked them.
One can never judge a book by its cover!
From his outside, the Great priest looked like a peaceful and easy-going old man. And the way he talked and acted was quite gentle as well. Nobody would have thought that he had this despicable true nature within him. Because of his deceiving outlook, Chen Xiaobei had lost two important Spiritual Items without getting anything back in return! And Chen Xiaobei was too weak to go against them.
After realizing their cultivation, Chen Xiaobei knew that not even the nuclear bomb inside his Infinite Space Ring could be used to threaten them. This was unfortunately an unwritten rule in this word – the strong ones could always do whatever they wanted to the weaker ones.
“Hahaha! You two are the biggest idiots in this world! Do you really think that we will allow you to bargain with us?! This is really hilarious!”
“Never mess with someone that is more experienced than you! The two of them have just turned into a couple of idiots after the Great priests played them hard!”
“Of course! Our Great priest is the legendary wise man of Saint Duke Starfield! Dealing with two earthlings is no different than squashing two ants!”
While the other 11 priests laughed at Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti, they took the opportunity to lick the Great priest’s boots as well.
“Alright! Fine! This time, I’m willing to admit that I lost in this matter! Since all of you are not going to answer our questions, we will take our leave now! I hope that we will not see each other anymore!” said Chen Xiaobei in a calm manner.
Chen Xiaobei then wanted to take Luo Puti and leave this place. Facing such powerful opponents, Chen Xiaobei knew that getting away was the best decision he could make for now. It was crucial for them to live to see another day tomorrow.
“Fine. The two of you can leave now! But, before you leave! You have to give me your Infinite Space Ring!” said the Great priest with a hypocritical smile on his face.
“What?!”
Upon hearing that, Chen Xiaobei and Luo Puti were filled with anger.
“I’m not going to repeat the same thing twice! Either you hand us the Infinite Space Ring willingly or I will ask the Seventh Priest to come and take it from your dead body! It’s all up to you right now!”
“Hmph!”
Immediately, the Seventh Priest threw them a vicious glare with a murderous intent.
This was definitely a threat to them!
Chen Xiaobei had not received any threats from anyone for a while now. And he had no one to blame but himself. It was all because he was simply just not powerful enough! If he was as powerful as one of those priests, he would definitely have not hesitated to risk his life to fight with them. If he wanted to live, he had to hand them his Infinite Space Ring.
But all of Chen Xiaobei’s most prized possessions were being stored inside this Infinite Space Ring. Most importantly, the ring itself was a hotspot to the Three Realm Intranet! Losing it would mean Chen Xiaobei could no longer enter the Three Realms Red Evelope Group.
“Xiaobei… You have helped me a lot… I will not let you suffer anymore!”
Just when Chen Xiaobei was stuck in dilemma, Luo Puti made a decision on her own. Immediately, she out the Returning Bracelet into Chen Xiaobei’s palm.
“What are you doing?”
Chen Xiaobei was taken aback and he managed to snap out from his dilemma.
“You go! I will hold them off!”
Luo Puti then pushed Chen Xiaobei aside and charged at the 12 priests alone.
“Come back!!! I will not let you die here!!!”
Knowing that Luo Puti’s cultivation was powerful enough, he knew that charging at them would be a suicide mission for her.
“If I’m destined to die here… I can at least reunite with my parents! You should go now! If I’m given a choice in my next life, I will definitely choose to be together with you!” said Luo Puti, determined.
It was only a distance of ten meters from where they stood from the priests. Seconds later, Luo Puti had already stood in front of them.
“How rude! How dare you charge at the Great priest?! Die!”
The Seventh Priest frowned and he moved so fast that Chen Xiaobei could not even lay his eyes on him. Seconds later, he was standing in front of Luo Puti and extended his hand to grab Luo Puti’s throat.
“Seventh Priest! Please have mercy! I will give you my Infinite Space Ring right now! Don’t kill her!” said Chen Xiaobei.
Even with Chen Xiaobei’s begging, the Seventh Priest had no intention to let Luo Puti live.
“Ugh…”
Suffocated, Luo Puti could feel that her neck was going to break soon.
“Seventh Priest! Please have mercy! Here’s my Infinite Space Ring! Take it! Don’t hurt her!”
Chen Xiaobei immediately rushed to the Seventh Priest and offered the Infinite Space Ring to him with both of his hands.
“Hmph! Are you begging me or ordering me?! If I were you, I would kneel down and offer it to me with both hands! If not, you are not worthy to talk to me! You can just die there!”
“I…”
Looking at Chen Xiaobei, Luo Puti could not help but shed tears. She knew that Chen Xiaobei was a man with ego. No matter what, he would never kneel down in front of someone or beg someone. She also knew that Chen Xiaobei would break his principles for the sake of her. This was what she did not want to see the most.
“Xiaobei! Don’t kneel down! Don’t do it!”
“Well! If you still refuse to kneel down, she will die now!”
The Seventh Priest roared and formed five True Kang sharp claws on his hand. He then used it to penetrate Luo Puti’s flesh and prepared to penetrate her blood vessels and throat.
But!
Something big suddenly happened!
