Chapter 14762 Adding Fuel to the Fire
To keep it all for myself!
These two words exploded in everyone's ears like thunder. Long Sanhuan, Jian Miaozi, Shen Wansan, and Xia Laozi all changed their expressions and turned their eyes to Huang Heibao and Huang Jifeng.
His gaze instantly turned hostile, and his aura grew increasingly fierce. An invisible pressure intertwined, causing the entire space to freeze.
Huang Jifeng felt a pang of anxiety under the gazes of the crowd, but he forced himself to remain calm. He stepped forward, his tone laced with a hint of defiance, and said sternly:
"Long Xingtian, stop making false accusations! I ask you, did you contribute even a little bit to obtaining this Demon Lord Black Heaven Sword?"
"From beginning to end, I was the one who orchestrated everything. I was the one who risked everything to lure Ling Xiao out. You were just chasing after him. Why should you get a share?"
Upon hearing this, Long Xingtian sneered and retorted with a hint of sarcasm: "So, did you put in any effort? If Ling Xiao hadn't handed over the sword willingly, do you think you could have gotten it?"
These words struck Huang Jifeng like a thunderbolt, leaving him stunned and speechless for a moment, his expression of rebuttal frozen.
He really didn't do anything!
Forget about fighting to the death, there wasn't even any decent maneuvering. The whole thing was just relaying a message as Huang Jifeng instructed. Before Ling Xiao could even make a move, the other party simply handed over the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword.
He himself hadn't expected that Ling Xiao would hand over such a precious treasure so readily and easily; this was completely beyond his expectations.
Seeing this, Long Xingtian's lips curled into a disdainful smile, and he continued to sneer:
"Huang Jifeng, you know in your heart that if the six of us weren't there to deter you, would Ling Xiao be afraid of an unknown nobody like you? Would he have so easily handed over the divine artifact to you? Don't flatter yourself!"
This Demon Lord Black Sky Sword was obtained through our collective efforts; it should belong to everyone, not just you, and certainly not something your Black Sword Hall can monopolize! Your desire to take it all for yourself is simply a pipe dream!
Huang Jifeng's face turned pale and then red, filled with anger and anxiety. Just as he was about to retort, Huang Heibao suddenly raised his hand to stop him, a sinister smile appearing on his face. He glanced at Long Sanhuan and the others and slowly said:
"Gentlemen, let's not argue here. Since ancient times, the world's treasures have always belonged to the capable, haven't they? If you have the ability, come and take it; if you don't, just watch quietly and stop making a fuss!"
Long Xingtian chuckled lightly, his tone tinged with sarcasm. He looked directly at Huang Heibao and slowly said, "What, Huang Heibao, are you implying that you are stronger than all of us and have the right to possess this treasure?"
Huang Heibao laughed heartily, his tone laced with arrogance, yet deliberately leaving room for maneuver:
"No, no, who in the world doesn't know that the Seventh Master of the Three Serpent Palace possesses extraordinary skills and unfathomable strength? And there's also Fairy Jian Miaozi, Elder Shen, and Elder Blind—all top-tier experts. How could I dare to be arrogant? However…"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly opened his palm, and a yellow talisman that shimmered with brilliant spiritual light quietly appeared. The talisman was covered with complex spatial runes and emitted a strong spatial fluctuation.
The next moment, the space around him and Huang Jifeng began to distort and become illusory, with spatial ripples spreading continuously, clearly indicating that they were trying to escape using the power of the talisman.
"Great Teleportation Talisman!"
Long Sanhuan's eyes narrowed suddenly, a flash of anger crossing them. He shouted sharply, "Trying to leave? Dream on! Leave the Demon Lord Black Heaven Sword behind, or don't even think about stepping out of this space today!"
The moment the voice fell, Long Sanhuan flashed out like an arrow, his black robe with python patterns fluttering in the wind.
The dense serpentine aura condensed into a huge serpentine claw, carrying unparalleled power, and slammed into the illusory space where Huang Heibao and Huang Jifeng were located!
boom……
A deafening roar suddenly erupted, and immense power swept in all directions, causing the entire space to tremble violently. Grotesque spatial cracks continued to spread, as if the space would collapse completely at any moment.
However, Huang Heibao and Huang Jifeng, who were in the illusory space, were becoming increasingly faint and illusory, and it seemed that they were about to completely disappear from this space.
At this critical moment, Jian Miaozi of the Heavenly Sword Hall suddenly raised her hand and flicked her finger. A pure white talisman flew out and appeared above the heads of Huang Heibao and the other man in an instant, emitting a faint binding power.
Upon seeing the talisman, the yellow leopard's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in alarm, "It's a Spirit Cage Talisman! Oh no!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the spirit cage talisman suddenly burst forth with spiritual light, and invisible spatial chains extended from the talisman, wrapping around Huang Heibao and Huang Jifeng.
The surrounding space began to shrink layer by layer, trapping the two figures firmly. Their teleportation trajectory was instantly interrupted, and their figures stopped being illusory and became clearer again.
However, at this moment, a mysterious and unpredictable power suddenly descended upon this space. This power was formless and intangible, yet it contained immense spatial power. In an instant, it broke through the confinement of the spirit cage talisman and calmed the tremors of the space.
In the blink of an eye, the figures of Huang Heibao and Huang Jifeng vanished without a trace, leaving not even a trace of energy fluctuation.
Long Sanhuan, Jian Miaozhi, and the others were instantly stunned, their faces filled with astonishment and disbelief... Just what was the origin of this mysterious power?
The fact that they could easily break the confinement of the Spirit Cage Talisman and take away Huang Heibao and the other person right under their noses shows how terrifying their strength is!
Jian Miaozi whirled her head, her gaze like a sharp blade shooting towards the void to her right. Her eyes were icy and piercing as she shouted, "Who attacked from the shadows! Show yourself if you dare!"
The moment the voice fell, she swung her right hand violently, her energy surged wildly, and the ancient sword on her back hummed. A sharp sword aura, a hundred feet long, suddenly erupted and slammed into the void a hundred feet away!
boom……
The void suddenly shattered, sending countless fragments of rock and space flying, and a powerful shockwave swept in all directions.
But after the explosion, the void was empty, with no one in sight, no trace of anyone, and no lingering presence, as if the person who had just made the move had never existed.
Seeing this, Jian Miaozhi frowned deeply, a hint of seriousness and doubt flashing in her eyes...
She clearly sensed the presence of that mysterious aura, but the other party's concealment technique was too strange. The aura vanished in an instant, making it impossible to track, and leaving not even a trace.
Long Xingtian also glanced coldly at the shattered void, a hint of resentment and wariness flashing in his eyes...
He had just clearly sensed someone making a move in the shadows. The aura was extremely subtle, yet it carried a powerful pressure, indicating that the person was no ordinary individual.
But the opponent was too fast and their concealment techniques were too sophisticated, giving them no chance to investigate.
