481: Start running! (Seeking monthly tickets!)

“Sorry.”

“What’s there to be sorry about?”

Jiang Yuan chuckled, looking at Mu Qianshan, who had a somewhat dejected expression, and smiled.

“This was all part of the plan.”

As Jiang Yuan spoke, he quietly explained to Mu Qianshan.

“An S-Class Red Quality Skill Card is bait. If you don’t help me spread the word, how else will I lure them in?”

“What do you mean?”

Mu Qianshan was startled, looking at Jiang Yuan with some confusion.

“The meaning is simple: even if you hadn’t shouted this afternoon, I would have made you shout it later.”

“But this way, it’s more natural, isn’t it?”

Jiang Yuan smiled, his peripheral vision scanning the people of various clans around them who were paying attention.

Among them, there were also gazes from the Human Clan.

“Our plan starts tonight. Get ready.”

“Alright.”

Mu Qianshan nodded. After hearing Jiang Yuan’s explanation, the pressure in his heart disappeared, and his face relaxed.

Currently, battles of the Quail Tail Initial Stage were underway.

However, it seemed everyone’s attention wasn’t on the battlefield.

They were all curious about one question.

Now that Jiang Yuan’s battle was over, when would they make their escape?

Anyone with a brain wouldn’t choose to run after the Ten Thousand Clans Martial Arts Tournament ended.

They would definitely run away in advance.

But when exactly was this ‘in advance’?

Tonight?

Or…

As today’s Ten Thousand Clans Martial Arts Tournament concluded, Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan returned to their rooms.

However, it was certain that almost every clan among the Ten Thousand Clans had used special cards to fix their gaze on the entrance of Jiang Yuan’s room.

“Are you ready?”

“Ready.”

As Mu Qianshan’s voice fell, the red quality cards in their hands shone brightly.

Then, Jiang Yuan No. 2 and Mu Qianshan No.2 appeared.

After the four exchanged smiles, purple light once again shone from Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan’s hands.

But this time, it was the Seventy-Two Transformations - False Form.

Both transformed into strands of hair and landed on Jiang Yuan’s head.

The reason they didn’t use the invisibility ability was out of fear that among the gazes fixed on their doorway, there might be skills capable of seeing through invisibility.

While fighting was forbidden on Giant Stone Plains, various cards could be used freely.

“Then, let’s go.”

Jiang Yuan No. 2 smiled at Mu Qianshan No.2, then walked towards the door.

Mu Qianshan No.2 also showed a smile on his face and followed Jiang Yuan out the door.

After exiting, the two separated.

Mu Qianshan No.2 continued to find a spot to set up a stall, still selling A-Class red quality Skill Cards.

Jiang Yuan No. 2, on the other hand, just like the previous Jiang Yuan, wandered around various stalls, occasionally buying one or two cards or heavenly material and earthly treasure.

“So leisurely, are these two not planning to run away?”

“Who knows, but they look like it. They wouldn’t really be so foolish as to wait until the Ten Thousand Clans Martial Arts Tournament ends, would they?”

“How could that be? Although the Human Clan’s strength is quite good, and they are also a First Sequence Race, can they withstand the attacks of so many of our clans?”

A burly man from the Demon Clan had his pupils covered in pink light, his gaze following Jiang Yuan as he spoke to the person beside him.

“Perhaps he’s just waiting for the Human Clan’s rescue to arrive, then he’ll escape in the chaos when we fight.”

“Ha, if that’s really the case…”

The burly Demon Clan man spoke, then suddenly fell silent.

If it were anyone else who did such a thing, no matter which clan they belonged to, they would never be accepted back into their clan.

But if it was Jiang Yuan, then it might be different.

He challenged opponents across a major realm, and killed all of them.

The S-Class Red Quality Skill Card in his hand, those Summoning Cards, the invincible golden small tower, and so on and so forth.

Any one of them would be something many clans would contend for.

How could the Human Clan not accept him?

Even if they wanted to kill him quickly, it would be after accepting him.

Moreover, his combat power was indeed very strong, and his growth rate was equally fast.

It wasn’t impossible for the Human Clan to swallow their pride and accept him.

After all, a talent like Jiang Yuan, if the Human Clan publicly declared they wouldn’t accept him, he would immediately become a hot commodity.

Every clan would want him to come to their clan.

As for whether he would live or die after arriving, that would be uncertain.

“Perhaps those two are fakes, keep a close eye on the room!”

After a moment of silence, the burly Demon Clan man suddenly spoke.

There were quite a few people who shared the same thought as this burly Demon Clan man.

If they were divided into two camps now, it would be Jiang Yuan, Mu Qianshan, and the other clans.

Clearly, Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan of the Human Clan definitely couldn’t compare to the other camp.

There were too many people.

Even if divided into three, hundreds of gazes could fall on every single spot.

Truly, staring intently at them!

Time flowed, and two strands of hair unexpectedly fell from the top of Jiang Yuan’s head as he strolled, landing on the Demon Clan stall owner.

Under the cover of night, no one noticed, and even if they did, no one cared.

It was normal to lose two strands of hair.

If it were them in Jiang Yuan’s current situation, going bald would be expected.

As night fully descended, “Jiang Yuan” and “Mu Qianshan” also returned home.

But even so, the gazes of the various clans still monitored Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan’s house from every angle, 360 degrees.

It was only because the house had special isolation, otherwise Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan probably wouldn’t sleep peacefully, constantly being monitored.

A night passed quickly, but the monitoring gazes still hadn’t disappeared.

However, as the battles began, Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan still hadn’t emerged from their room.

“It’s not their battle, there’s no point in them coming out.”

“It’s impossible for them to run. So many of us are monitoring them 24/7 with no blind spots and no gaps. Invisibility is impossible, and there are no spatial fluctuations.”

“They must still be in the room.”

The people of various clans still hadn’t given up, their eyes fixed on Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan’s house.

At the same time, from two houses on the edge of the Demon Clan’s gathering place, two Demon Clan individuals leisurely emerged.

The two Demon Clan individuals passed through the edges of the various clan gathering places, taking a path that had clearly been trodden, heading towards an exit on the south side of the Giant Stone Plains.

At the same time, the door to Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan’s room opened.

The people of various clans who were monitoring their every move instantly perked up.

Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan exchanged glances, looked up at the sky, then re-entered the room.

The room door closed, and the people of various clans who were monitoring were somewhat disappointed.

But the next second, some of the monitors couldn’t help but laugh.

“Do you really think invisibility can help you escape?”

“My Heaven’s Eye Spirit Pupils can see through invisibility.”

“Haha, invisibility? It’s already been overused. You don’t really think you can successfully escape by relying on that, do you?”

The people of various clans couldn’t help but laugh, then immediately relayed the message to their own clan members.

“They’ve already come out invisibly. It seems the escape will be today.”

Although the messages conveyed by various clans differed, the general meaning was the same.

Upon receiving the news, the various clans instantly perked up.

At the same time, at the southern exit, the two Demon Clan individuals were also intercepted.

“What are you two doing?”

“We are merchants here. It’s time for us to go out and restock. We’re taking advantage of the remaining half a month to make another trip.”

A pot-bellied middle-aged man cautiously spoke to the Angel Clan middle-aged man in front of him.

“Demon Clan?”

The Angel Clan middle-aged man’s pupils turned purple as he scrutinized the two, but he didn’t detect any traces of transformation.

“Show me your strength.”

After the Angel Clan middle-aged man spoke, the two Demon Clan individuals displayed their strength.

One was at the Eighth Realm Quail Fire Late Stage, and the other was at the Sixth Realm Shi Shen Late Stage.

“Uh, my strength is too weak, so we came together.”

The Shi Shen Late Stage Demon Clan member seemed a bit embarrassed and explained himself.

The Angel Clan middle-aged man nodded, just about to check again, when he received a message.

“Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan just left their room, currently invisible. Please guard the exit.”

Upon receiving the message, the Angel Clan middle-aged man’s eyes instantly lit up.

Looking at the two Demon Clan individuals in front of him, the Angel Clan middle-aged man waved his hand, signaling them to leave.

Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan had already come out and were heading this way under the surveillance of various clans.

There was no need to bother with these two modules; he had already conducted an initial check and found no issues.

There were no signs of transformation on their bodies, nor any fluctuations indicating their realm was concealed.

This was their true appearance, and this was their true realm.

However, to be safe, after passing through this gate, there would be further checks using various card abilities.

Whether it was transformation, clone, shadow, or invisibility, all could be detected!

After the Angel Clan middle-aged man waved his hand, the two also walked outside.

As soon as they exited the passage, they were stopped again.

The way they were checked by the Angel Clan inside was also visible from the outside.

After all, the five exits of Giant Stone Plains, while called exits, were merely the only five places one could leave from.

There were no walls blocking the middle.

It was more like a prohibition on passage by the World’s Will.

“You two stand here for a check, then you can go.”

Compared to the five or six people inside, there were many more people outside.

They alone saw no less than a hundred.

Not to mention those hidden in the dark, those who hadn’t appeared, those preparing ambushes at a greater distance, and so on.

The two stood in the middle of a circle, quietly waiting for the golden light within the circle to shine upon them.

This was something they specially used to target various disguises.

As long as there were traces of disguise, whether in appearance or cultivation, this card would reveal their true appearance and cultivation.

As the two were being checked, the Angel Clan middle-aged man inside suddenly took a step to the right, blocking the exit.

Instantly, everyone outside, including the two Demon Clan merchants who were being checked, looked over.

“Do you think I can’t see through your invisibility?”

The Angel Clan middle-aged man sneered, the purple light in his pupils reflecting Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan.

Instantly, their invisibility was broken.

Jiang Yuan’s expression was grim, while Mu Qianshan quickly stepped forward.

“I have an S-Class Red Quality Skill Card in my hand. As long as you let us pass and protect us for this distance, this S-Class Red Quality Skill Card is yours!”

A hint of surprise flashed in the Angel Clan middle-aged man’s eyes.

Last night, he had even sent a junior from his Angel Clan to inquire with Mu Qianshan, who was selling cards.

However, the reply he received was that this card was useful and not for sale.

Everyone thought they intended to use it themselves, never expecting it was for bribery.

The Angel Clan middle-aged man smiled. Clearly, he was tempted.

But he also knew in his heart that although his strength was very strong, reaching the Tenth Realm Longevity Star Late Stage.

However, taking them and protecting them through this path was clearly impossible.

But…

Since they hadn’t used it yet…

The Angel Clan middle-aged man’s eyes darted around.

Originally, they planned to guard this intersection and prevent Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan from passing.

After all, they wanted to wipe out the other Human Clan members here as well.

But now that he thought about it, what if they went back and directly used this S-Class Red Quality Skill Card?

Moreover, there’s always a thief for a thousand days, but no one can guard against a thief for a thousand days. Wouldn’t it be better to just eliminate them here?

The Angel Clan middle-aged man’s heart stirred, and he nodded in agreement.

Under the gazes of the various clan powerhouses, he nodded in agreement.

Instantly, the powerhouses of various clans looked at the Angel Clan middle-aged man with some ill will.

“It is indeed an S-Class Red Quality Skill Card.”

The Angel Clan middle-aged man checked the authenticity of the card, then nodded: “Alright, give me the card, and I’ll take you out.”

“This card is only yours after you take us out,” Mu Qianshan was also very cautious and didn’t agree directly.

“Then, please.”

A flicker of displeasure flashed in the Angel Clan middle-aged man’s eyes, then he took a step back.

This step just happened to take him out of Giant Stone Plains.

This retreat meant he could use martial arts!

Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan exchanged glances, breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly exited Giant Stone Plains.

But just as they left Giant Stone Plains, a large hand reached out towards them.

“How dare you!”

“Betrayal!”

Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan looked at the large hand reaching out from the Angel Clan middle-aged man, preparing to turn back into Giant Stone Plains, but saw that the path back was already blocked by the remaining people of other clans inside.

Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan gritted their teeth, and red light flashed in their hands. Nezha, Zhao Gongming, Shi Ji, and two Golden Crows instantly appeared.

Nezha and Zhao Gongming directly met the Angel Clan middle-aged man’s large hand.

Meanwhile, Shi Ji, Zhao Gongming, Jiang Yuan, and Mu Qianshan directly turned and rushed back into Giant Stone Plains.

Seeing the battle begin, all the people of the clans outside instantly converged, preparing to directly kill or capture Jiang Yuan.

The two Demon Clan individuals who had already finished their check were trembling. After a Tenth Realm Demon Clan powerhouse waved his hand at them, they quickly prepared to leave.

And that Demon Clan powerhouse also rushed towards the other side.

“Break!”

Various powerful attacks were launched, but their attacks were not even considered tickles to the powerhouses blocking the Giant Stone Plains entrance.

Mu Qianshan gritted his teeth and directly threw the card in his hand to the right.

It was precisely the S-Class Red Quality Skill Card they had just used for bribery!
