270: Slowly settle the accounts

"Senior, Senior, please stop! I have a Storage Pouch here, I'll give it to you right now!" Seeing Chen Xuan being wronged, Qinglan Jade quickly took out her Storage Pouch and handed it to Lin Rou.

Lin Rou had no choice but to give up when she saw this.

"Don't worry, as long as you cooperate obediently, I won't hurt you," Lin Rou said indifferently, while also beginning to count the treasures inside these Storage Pouches.

These were all her spoils of war, and she couldn't easily give them to Chen Xuan! If he didn't beg her, he could forget about these treasures! Hmph!

"Hmm?! This, this is..." Suddenly, Lin Rou discovered some familiar items, which were some of her and her Disciples' former treasures.

Memories instantly flooded her mind.

"How did these broken Emperor Weapons end up in your hands?" Lin Rou's tone carried a hint of emotion.

"Senior, these treasures were discovered by us in the ruins of a Sect. It is said that they were relics left behind by a Senior, and we stumbled upon them by chance," Tang Sirui answered truthfully.

"So that's how it is." Lin Rou suddenly understood, and at the same time felt a pang of sadness. These Emperor Weapons were originally refined by her and given to her Disciples for the Heaven-Slaying Campaign. She had thought these items would be destroyed with the Heaven-Slaying Campaign, but she never expected them to return to her hands in this way now.

"Then we..."

"You can scram." Lin Rou put down Chen Xuan, waved her hand, and motioned for Tang Sirui and the others to leave.

Tang Sirui and the others felt as if they had received a great pardon and quickly left the area, fearing that Lin Rou would go back on her word.

Seeing that his objective was complete and that this 'aunt' was not in a good state, Chen Xuan put her away after they had walked a good distance.

"I didn't expect that bandit Lin Batian to be an old immortal; no wonder he has such strength!" After leaving, Ma Ji exclaimed.

Although he still harbored immense hatred in his heart, he no longer had any thought of revenge.

"Alright, we've been here for so long, we've already exceeded the trial time. Let's quickly figure out how to leave!" Tang Sirui frowned.

"That's right, let's leave quickly. This damned place has a strange person like Lin Batian; it's too unstable!" Dai Dabai also echoed.

Although he had been robbed once before, he had still collected quite a few good treasures afterward, but then Lin Batian directly swooped in like a mantis stalking a cicada, leaving him with nothing here!

"But... how do we get out?" Chen Xuan asked.

"According to my guess, it should still be behind that unopenable stone door on the mountaintop!"

"An unopenable stone door?" Qinglan Jade asked in surprise.

"You and Chen Xuan just arrived, so you haven't seen it yet. You'll know when we get up ahead!" Yan Xi came over to curry favor.

A simp is always a simp, no matter where he is, even if he is facing the veiled Qinglan Jade at this moment.

"Then what are we waiting for? Today has been so frustrating, I want to leave this unlucky place quickly!" Chen Xuan said angrily, but in reality, he was beaming with joy inside.

Subsequently, the main group continued forward and soon arrived in front of a huge and dilapidated palace.

"This is..." Qinglan Jade asked in confusion.

"Azure, Mountain, Sect! Perhaps it's some ancient Sect!" Chen Xuan saw the palace's plaque.

"Don't worry about this. All the good things here have long been taken by others. Although they were later robbed again, that's no longer the point!"

"Oh, they were robbed, then never mind."

"The stone door is up ahead, Young Miss Qinglan, please follow me!" Yan Xi said.

Qinglan Jade first glanced at Chen Xuan, and after seeing him nod, she also nodded slightly.

Then, she actively took Chen Xuan's hand and went forward with him.

Yan Xi: "..."

'You darn Chen Xuan, a mere country bumpkin waste from the Lower Realm, you dare to spiritually control the noble Young Miss Qinglan? Just you wait until I get out; I'll expose your evil deeds publicly!'

...

At the end, there was a huge stone door.

The stone door was carved with countless complex runes, and on it was an exquisite small pair of scissors, emitting a mysterious power that made Chen Xuan's heart palpitate.

However, the moment he saw the scissors, he relaxed.

I have Yin'er backing me up!

"This stone door should be the deepest Restriction in the Tian Yuan Valley Small World, right?" Chen Xuan carefully examined the stone door, guessing in his heart.

He tried to push the stone door, but found that it remained motionless, as if it were integrated with the entire mountain wall.

"It won't work. We've tried all sorts of methods, but it just won't budge. Young Miss Qinglan understands Formations, and we're all specifically waiting for her!" At this moment, a student from the academy came out and said.

"Jue'er, go take a look."

"Mm-hmm!" Qinglan Jade nodded obediently, then came to the stone door and began to examine the Formation.

"This is still an energy Formation; it requires a large amount of energy to activate!" Qinglan Jade immediately saw the clue.

"That's impossible! We just tried putting Spirit Stones in, but it didn't work!"

"This time is different. This time, it requires instantaneous energy, which is... the purest energy!"

"Ah? Then what should we do? We don't have anything in our hands now!"

Just as Qinglan Jade was about to explain, Tang Sirui spoke directly:

"I think Young Miss Qinglan isn't talking about that kind of energy, but rather... this!"

Tang Sirui gathered all the Spiritual Qi in his body, condensed it into a ball, and struck it into the stone door.

The stone door remained motionless.

'Oh no, did I guess wrong? This is bad, I've become the clown on stage!' Tang Sirui's heart was extremely anxious.

However, Qinglan Jade spoke up.

"His energy alone isn't enough. Everyone, let's work together!" After speaking, she also surged the Spiritual Qi within her body, gathering it in her palm and striking it out.

As everyone's Spiritual Qi poured in, the stone door immediately let out a buzzing sound. Immediately after, the small pair of scissors emitted an even more brilliant light, and then the stone door slowly opened, revealing a huge passage.

"We can finally get out!"

Everyone cheered and rushed into the passage.

"Is that all it takes?" Chen Xuan couldn't help but complain.

"Simple my ass! Without you coming here, no one could open this stone door; it only recognizes your Spiritual Qi. Alright, stop dawdling and hurry in to seize your Opportunity!" The voice of Bi Xiao Fairy came from Chen Xuan's mind again.

To be honest, Bi Xiao was completely numb. She had told him to go up the mountain very early, but she didn't expect this damned brat to dare to fool around with this married woman right in front of her. It truly infuriated her!

She would slowly settle this score with Chen Xuan!
