Kill them all
Hearing Qin Yi's words, everyone was stunned, failing to react for a long time.
Li Xing's face flushed with anger as he was the first to snap out of it, questioning, "Patriarch Qin, isn't your ambition a bit too great? You want to hog all the treasures here for yourself."
The crowd also broke into a flurry of discussion.
"That's right, Patriarch Qin, you're being too selfish."
"Indeed, I don't agree. There are so many treasures here; aren't you afraid of biting off more than you can chew, Patriarch Qin?"
"Yes, I don't agree either. With so many of our forces combined, why should we fear a single Qin Yi?"
Qin Yi's expression turned cold, and a tangible killing intent radiated from him. "I'll ask one last time: do you all really disagree?"
Feeling the killing intent from Qin Yi, the crowd couldn't help but tremble, and their minds cleared instantly.
If they continued to disagree, they would inevitably offend Qin Yi. Thinking of Qin Yi's Martial Emperor Realm combat power, their forces wouldn't even survive a single palm strike from him.
The Sloppy Old Man from the Beast Taming Sect stepped forward and said, "My Beast Taming Sect will not participate in the fight for the treasures."
Then, with a forced smile on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "Patriarch Qin, it has been a long time."
His Beast Taming Sect absolutely had to give up on this struggle. If Qin Yi targeted them again, they would truly have no way to survive.
Qin Yi smiled slightly, thinking that this old man was quite tactful. Since Xiao Hei was indeed a mutated Yao Beast, there was no need to make things too difficult for him.
"Your Yao Beast egg was quite good. If you leave now, I won't go looking for trouble with your Beast Taming Sect."
The Sloppy Old Man breathed a sigh of relief, glad to have received Qin Yi's forgiveness. "Patriarch Qin, until we meet again."
After saying that, he turned and led the Disciples of the Beast Taming Sect out of the Yunmeng Treasury.
Staying here wouldn't get them any treasures anyway. It was better to take advantage of the fact that the ruins hadn't closed yet to check other places and see if they could find some other opportunities.
The Disciple behind him looked puzzled and asked, "Elder, what Yao Beast egg was Patriarch Qin talking about?"
Pfft!
The Sloppy Old Man almost slipped. This was truly bringing up the one thing that shouldn't be mentioned. He said crossly, "Don't ask too many questions about adult matters, kid."
The Elder of the Medicine King Valley also spoke up, "My Medicine King Valley will also not participate in the fight for the treasures this time."
After saying that, he cupped his hands to Qin Yi, then turned and led his Disciples away.
The Medicine King Valley was an Alchemy Sect and was naturally neutral. Moreover, they were the wealthiest Sect, so there was no need to offend Qin Yi over treasures.
With the departure of the two first-rate Sects, the people from the various forces present also began to have second thoughts.
Even if their force managed to snatch a treasure, would they be able to withstand Qin Yi's retaliation once they left?
Then, all the Martial Spirit level forces left, while some Martial King level forces hesitated... Seeing most of the forces leave, Li Xing became even more frustrated and said loudly, "So what if we don't agree? Does Qin Yi really dare to kill us all?"
Lan Ling also spoke up, "That's right. With so many of us from Martial King level forces, I don't believe Qin Yi truly dares to kill us."
The Qingyun Sect had already completely offended Qin Yi anyway, so they were like a dead pig not fearing boiling water.
With the support of Li Xing and Lan Ling, combined with their greed for the treasures, five Martial King level forces ultimately stayed behind.
Qin Yi sneered and said, "Since you are unwilling to leave, then stay here forever."
Spiritual Qi surged within him, and the surrounding Spiritual Qi swept toward him.
A giant palm slowly rose, and an aura of desolation and death enveloped the entire cave.
"Great Desolation Palm."
Fear showed on everyone's faces as an aura of death shrouded them. They couldn't help but recall the scene of Qin Yi slapping a Martial Emperor Yao Beast to death.
Li Xing shouted in terror, "Qin Yi, do you really dare to kill us?"
How could Qin Yi dare? These were all people from the Martial King forces of the Great Yan Kingdom. If they all died here, the entire Great Yan Kingdom would surely be thrown into turmoil.
The Qin Family would also not escape being besieged.
"Run!" someone shouted.
Everyone bolted toward the exit, no longer caring about the treasures. If they didn't run, they would be slapped to death.
Li Xing and the others were no exception. They felt extremely aggrieved; as the dignified Crown Prince of a kingdom, he was actually forced to flee in such a pathetic manner.
Qin Yi sneered, "You really think I'm joking? You still want to run?"
His hands rapidly circulated Spiritual Qi, and with a boom, a mass of Spiritual Qi was added to the giant palm.
The Desolate Giant Palm fell with extreme speed.
With a loud boom, the cave shook violently.
Everyone hit by the giant palm lost their breath.
Li Xing stood up shakily, his face filled with terror. "Qin Yi, as long as you don't kill me, I promise I won't retaliate against your Qin Family once we're out."
Qin Yi's eyes showed surprise; Li Xing actually hadn't been slapped to death. However, he soon understood.
As the Crown Prince of the Great Yan Kingdom, it wasn't surprising for him to have some treasures to ward off attacks.
Qin Yi walked over, his face cold as he said, "Sparing you is impossible. You should just go and die."
Li Xing's gaze turned fierce as he threatened, "Qin Yi, if you dare to kill me, the Imperial Family won't let you off! Don't think you're invincible just because you have Martial Emperor combat power."
"If I die, your entire Qin Family will be buried with me."
With a boom, a punch carrying Spiritual Qi smashed into Li Xing's body.
With a thud, his body fell to the ground, and his breath ceased.
"Hmph, still trying to threaten me. Even if your Old Ancestor comes, what can he do to the Qin Family?"
Then, Qin Yi turned and said, "Pack up all the treasures and resources here."
The Secret Guards moved quickly into action.
"Ding, it has been detected that the Host has offended the Qingyun Sect and the Imperial Family."
Option One: Take the initiative to attack and annihilate the Qingyun Sect and the Imperial Family.
Reward: The Host's cultivation will increase by three minor Realms, and the Host will receive the Heaven Rank High Grade Martial Skill, Nine Heavens Sword Art.
Option Two: Join the Imperial Family, offer the resources from the Yunmeng Treasury, and exchange them for a sliver of survival for the Qin Family.
Reward: The Host's cultivation will increase by one minor Realm, and the Host will receive three Earth Rank Low Grade Martial Skills.
"I choose Option One."
Qin Yi made his decision. Once he returned to the Qin Family after the ruins ended, his cultivation could Breakthrough to the Third Layer Martial Emperor.
By then, annihilating the Qingyun Sect and the Imperial Family would be a breeze.
Shortly after, Qin Shi ran over with an excited face and said excitedly, "Patriarch, this time we've collected a total of over ten million Medicinal Pills."
"The most important ones are three Emperor Breaking Pills."
"There are also thousands of Spiritual Artifacts, including one Earth-Grade High Grade Spiritual Artifact, three Earth-Grade Medium Grade Spiritual Artifacts, and ten Low Grade Spiritual Artifacts."
"As well as three hundred million Low-Grade Spirit Stones..."
Qin Yi nodded. With this wealth of resources, the Qin Family would experience a qualitative leap.
"Let's go. We're leaving the cave."
Outside the cave, some people from the various forces had not yet left, wanting to see the outcome of what happened inside.
Having heard an explosion earlier and now seeing only Qin Yi's group emerge, they already had their suspicions.
Qin Yi ignored them and walked toward the outside of the valley.
