When Xu Que walked out of the cave, he found there were numerous cultivators waiting outside. In the past,when people entered the cave, very few managed to get out alive, which made lots of people believe that there were many treasures inside. Those who managed to get out never got deep inside, and people thought they were either lucky or extremely powerful. Some even had the idea of killing the survivors to take their treasures away.
Therefore, Xu Que had drawn lots of attention when he came out alive.
Seeing him coming out, people started a heated discussion.
“Look! Someone is coming out alive!”
“I don’t think I have seen him before, or seen him getting inside.”
“My goodness! It’s him!”
“You know him?!”
“Of course, I know him! Seven days ago, he spoke up for a rather ugly woman. My, my, I thought he would be dead by now.”
“Where is the young woman who went inside together with him?”
“I think she must be dead now!”
“Wait a minute, you just said that he went into the cave seven days ago?”
“No one ever stays inside for that long!”
“In the past, those who came out alive only stayed inside for half a day or a day. He stayed inside for seven days and still comes out alive!”
“I wonder if he might have already got the inheritance?”
Hearing this, all of a sudden, people all stared at Xu Que.
Xu Que was very happy and came out with a big smile.
I got the Ancient Life and Death Wheel, made the Zixia Fairy fall in love with me, and even got the inheritance. I am so lucky.
“He must have gotten lots of treasures!”
“He is just in the Golden Core Stage and managed to come out alive. I do envy him!”
“Are you joking? You envy him?! I think he is about to get killed!”
“Why?”
“Even you are guessing that he has probably got lots of treasures. Everyone else at present must have also guessed. With so many people staring at him and wanting to rob him, I am sure he will not see the sun tomorrow.”
“After all, he is too young to know the importance of being modest.”
“You are right. If I were him, I would pretend that I am badly injured, so I would not be targeted by others.”
Many people shook their heads and looked at Xu Que sympathetically.
A young cultivator of the Golden Core Strength, alone, and now he was being targeted by so many people. Basically, he was like a sheep surrounded by a herd of wolves.
However, Xu Que did not care about this at all. He was thinking about how to get tons of incantations and how to cultivate the former three incantations of the Heaven and Earth Seal. So he could learn the Gautama Buddha Seal and act tough by throwing the Five Elements Mountain across the world. Thinking of all this, Xu Que’s smile was getting brighter.
After leaving the cave, he looked around to find the way that led to Snow City and was about to leave. However, as soon as he took a few steps, some people quickly followed him.
“Young man, please wait!” A man said abruptly, while smiling.
Hearing this, Xu Que stopped and looked back, with a big question mark on his face. It was a young man who spoke to him. There were around ten people standing next to him. Judging by this, Xu Que could tell that they came from a certain faction.
“Excuse me?!” Xu Que blinked his eyes and faked a smile. Obviously, he had guessed their intentions.
Seeing this, people all shook their heads and sighed.
“This young man is doomed.”
“Is he insane? He is still smiling?”
“These people come from the Grey Ebb Faction!”
“My goodness! The Grey Ebb Faction! Is this the faction that was established by the Female Thief and Male Thief, Cang Feng and Mo Lan?!”
“I have been told that these two people are really tough figures! Cang Feng was already in the Infant Transformation Stage ten years ago, and he is really cruel! As for Mo Lan, she is extremely beautiful but rather slutty at the same time. In the past, she distracted other cultivators with her beauty and then killed them.”
“After they established the Grey Ebb Faction, they recruited countless cultivators with ill reputations. Now the Grey Ebb Faction is even more powerful than many Influential Factions.”
“I never thought they were also here today! I am afraid they would not let that young man go!”
“Quite right. Besides, no one at present dares to get in their way, I think!”
“Like I said, he is like a sheep surrounded by a herd of wolves!”
People were discussing all this and they all thought Xu Que was destined to be killed this time.
However, Xu Que was still smiling.
“Hey, man, I wonder if you got some powerful incantations inside the cave? Anyway, we of the Grey Ebb Faction would be very happy to buy anything from you for a good price!” Cang Feng said, trying to intimidate Xu Que.
But Xu Que had never heard of the Grey Ebb Faction, so he was not bothered by it at all. Xu Que nodded and said with great excitement, “Yes, I went to the deepest place and got some powerful incantations, as well as a powerful Celestial Artifact!”
“Powerful incantations and a Celestial Artifact?” Hearing this, many people all asked in surprise together, “Really?!”
A Celestial Artifact?! That would be sensational! No one has ever found a Celestial Artifact here in the Five Elements Mountain. Even a Magic Weapon of Nine Stars would stir a huge conflict among many factions. Now the young man says he has got a Celestial Artifact, I don’t believe the Grey Ebb Faction is entitled to own it, since it is too powerful.
All of a sudden, everyone from the Grey Ebb Faction could not help suppressing their excitement. Cang Feng stopped smiling and said with a deep voice, “Young man, please don’t play jokes with me. How can there be a Celestial Artifact here in the Water Nation?!”
“I am not lying! If you don’t believe it, I can take it out and show it to you! Never mind, I don’t think you guys can really appreciate it. I think I’d better go back home and finish my diary.” Xu Que said, while getting Cang Feng out of his way. He was about to walk away.
Both Cang Feng and the rest of people were surprised by Xu Que’s action.
Going home?
You think you can go home like this?! What did you say?! You want to go back to finish your diary?!
“Stop!” Cang Feng said abruptly and coldly. “How dare you underestimate the Grey Ebb Faction?! I have said we of the Grey Ebb Faction would be willing to buy everything you got from the inside the cave.”
“Oh, really?!” Xu Que stopped and turned around to look at Cang Feng. “Tell me how many Spiritual Stones you have got?!”
“Spiritual Stones? You can have as many as you want!” Cang Feng smiled.
You are really too naive! We from the Grey Ebb Faction never buy things with Spiritual Stones!
Xu Que’s eyes sparkled with excitement and he exclaimed, “Really?! Then how many incantations have you got?”
“You can have as many as you want!” Cang Feng laughed.
Hearing this, Xu Que waved his hand and strode forward, “Good! Take me to your Faction.We will do business.”
