146: Quasi-Saint Son of Liuli Holy Land
Wang Xiaopang chuckled, rubbing his hands, and said, "It's just... while they weren't paying attention, I played a little dirty. I used some of my exclusive secret 'Muscle Softening Powder' and set up a small illusion array... Hehe, you know."
He gestured, "Then, I... I knocked them out. I saw that guy was dressed so well, he must have had a lot of good stuff on him. I couldn't resist, so I... I just stripped him naked, didn't even leave his underwear! I took all his valuables, including his Storage Ring, jade pendant, and robes!"
Wang Xiaopang spoke with a triumphant air, as if he had accomplished something truly extraordinary.
"At the time, I was thinking, 'in for a penny, in for a pound,' just destroy the body and leave no trace, settle everything once and for all!"
A trace of lingering fear and annoyance appeared on his face.
"But just as I was about to make my move, I discovered, damn it! His Sea of Consciousness actually had an extremely powerful secret technique protecting it!
It was shimmering with golden light, clearly the work of a Holy Land big shot! My meager cultivation was no match for it at all! If I had forced my way through, it would definitely have alerted the big shot behind him!"
He spread his hands, a helpless expression on his face: "Couldn't kill him, couldn't let him go... I panicked at the time! In a moment of desperation, 'in for a penny, in for a pound'..."
Wang Xiaopang lowered his voice, with a hint of mischievous glee at his successful prank: "I found a secluded... uh, century-old latrine, and used a Restriction to pin him down in the bottom, soaking! I figured I'd suppress him for a few years, and by then, he wouldn't even know where to find me!"
He rubbed his nose, a little guilty: "Who knew... who knew he was actually the Blood Demon Sect Leader's nephew! And he could even use the Blood Demon Sect's secret channels! He was probably fished out not long after, and then he started chasing me like a madman! The way he looked, he wanted to grind me to dust!"
"I thought at the time, although the Blood Demon Sect is powerful, I still had some confidence in escaping. Who knew..."
His face instantly fell, and he said with a mournful expression, "Who knew I'd stir up a hornet's nest! He was actually a prospective Saint of the Glazed Holy Land!"
"At the time, I took his Storage Ring and spent a lot of effort breaking through the Restriction. In it, I found a jade token representing his identity—'Glazed Holy Land, Prospective Saint, Xue Wuhen'!"
"My dear mother!" Wang Xiaopang slapped his thigh, "My legs went soft at that moment! I actually stripped a prospective Saint of the Glazed Holy Land naked!"
He lowered his voice and continued, "He was a Genius secretly sent by the Blood Demon Sect to the Glazed Holy Land for cultivation in earlier years! Relying on the Holy Land's resources and the benefits secretly supplied by the Blood Demon Sect, he rose to the position of prospective Saint!"
Wang Xiaopang grew more and more agitated: "The Glazed Holy Land! The dignified leader of the Righteous Path, actually secretly supported an evil demonic Sect like the Blood Demon Sect, and even cultivated a Blood Demon Sect member into a prospective Saint!"
After Wang Xiaopang finished speaking, he looked pitifully at Xiao Ruobai and Fang Hanyu: "Brothers, do you understand now? I didn't intentionally cause trouble; this matter came looking for me!"
At this moment, Xiao Ruobai interjected, "Blood Demon Sect? What's their background? The name doesn't sound like a Sect from Xuan Province."
Wang Xiaopang immediately explained, "Brother, you don't know! This Blood Demon Sect is not a force from Xuan Province! They are an overlord-level Sect from Qing Province!
In terms of strength, they are second only to the neighboring Glazed Holy Land, and much stronger than top Sects in Xuan Province like the Myriad Law Pavilion and the Demon Heaven Sect! It is said that there are several King Realm Peak powerhouses guarding the Sect, and many Heavenly Human Realm Elders!"
A look of lingering fear appeared on his face: "I really stirred up big trouble this time! After Xue Wuhen was fished out of the latrine, he must have been furious. He immediately used his authority as a prospective Saint and the Blood Demon Sect's secret channels.
The Blood Demon Sect dispatched elites, chasing me all the way from Qing Province across borders to Xuan Province! If it weren't for Fat Master's unparalleled skill in escaping, I would have been chopped into mincemeat by them long ago!"
He sighed, with an expression of "I didn't want this either": "I, Wang Xiaopang, just wanted to quietly make a small fortune, how did I end up with such a life-threatening situation..."
Wang Xiaopang looked at Xiao Ruobai and Fang Hanyu, his face filled with a "sincere" smile, and began to pull things out of his Storage Ring.
With a clanging sound, a small pile of treasures appeared on the ground: several Storage Rings of good quality, several Magic Treasures shimmering with spiritual light, some bottles and jars of Medicinal Pills, and a pile of Spirit Stones.
"Two brothers!"
Wang Xiaopang patted his chest, looking righteous.
"We are now ants on the same rope! We share blessings and misfortunes! These were taken from those guys from the Blood Demon Sect, let's divide them now! I, Wang Xiaopang, am the most principled!"
As he spoke, he looked eagerly at Xiao Ruobai, hoping to use this "sincerity" to build a closer relationship.
Xiao Ruobai glanced at the things on the ground and spoke in a calm tone: "Xiao Pangzi, you can't just say anything. We are not ants on the same rope as you."
Wang Xiaopang's smile instantly froze.
Xiao Ruobai continued slowly, "The people they want to catch are you, and the things they want are in your hands. We just passed by and were forced to defend ourselves. It's not too late to leave now."
Wang Xiaopang immediately panicked when he heard this, stamping his feet and saying, "Brother! You can't do this! You killed their people! That demonic cult, the Blood Demon Sect, has very strange methods! They definitely have secret techniques that can sense the aura of their disciples before death or the killer!
You must have been marked now! We are truly in the same boat now!"
He was sweating profusely, fearing that these two powerful allies would leave.
Xiao Ruobai's heart stirred upon hearing this.
He secretly circulated the secret technique Cannot See Through Me taught by his Revered Master, sensing himself.
Indeed, an extremely faint and hidden mark, carrying the Qi of blood fiends, had unknowingly attached itself to the corners of his and Fang Hanyu's clothes.
If it weren't for his special Cultivation Technique and his Divine Sense far exceeding others of the same rank, he would not have noticed it at all. This Blood Demon Sect indeed had some tricks.
However, this mark, in front of the Cannot See Through Me Cultivation Technique, was like a drop of water entering the sea, instantly assimilated and obscured, disappearing without a trace.
As long as he wished, even if the Blood Demon Sect had heaven-defying means, they could not hope to find him by this means.
But he showed no emotion on his face, instead following Wang Xiaopang's words and turning his gaze to his Storage Ring.
"Oh? Even so."
Xiao Ruobai's tone remained calm, "Then shouldn't you also show some real sincerity? For example... the things you got from that prospective Saint?
A prospective Saint of a Holy Land, and a Genius cultivated with all the might of a top great School, his wealth should be more than what you just said, right?"
Wang Xiaopang's expression changed, and his eyes began to dart around. He stammered, "This... brother, the prospective Saint's things... most of them are hot potatoes! I'm afraid they'll cause you trouble!"
Xiao Ruobai didn't speak, just quietly looked at him, his eyes seemingly able to see through everything.
Wang Xiaopang felt uncomfortable under his gaze, gritted his teeth, and then reluctantly pulled out a few more items from his embrace.
A short sword shimmering with cold light, an anti-poison bead the size of a Dragon's eye, and several hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones rich in Spiritual Qi.
"That's... that's all! Really!
" He said with a pained expression, "Most of that kid's belongings were probably left in the Holy Land; he only carried these practical items with him!"
Xiao Ruobai remained unmoved, his gaze calm.
Wang Xiaopang's forehead began to sweat. He stomped his foot and pulled out a soft armor shimmering with iridescent light: "Add this too! The 'Golden Silkworm Wing Armor'! A Heaven-Grade High Grade treasure, with astonishing defensive power! There's really nothing left!"
Xiao Ruobai and Fang Hanyu remained unmoved, still quietly watching him.
Wang Xiaopang was almost in tears, saying with a choked voice, "Brother! Big brother! My dear brother! There's really nothing left! I swear! That Xue Wuhen was just for show! He was very poor!"
Xiao Ruobai finally spoke slowly, his tone carrying a hint of playfulness: "Is that so? A prospective Saint of the Glazed Holy Land, no matter how useless he is, would at least have a... King-tier Magic Treasure for self-defense, right?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaopang's pupils suddenly contracted, and his expression instantly became incredibly colorful.
