Chapter 294: A Thief Trying to Catch the Thief and Took Possession of the Treasure

Boom!

As soon as the golden electrical light showed up in the air as if it had been ready for a long time.

Giant lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled.

The lightning struck Mo Guting’s heart from his back.

“Ah!”

Mo Guting was shocked that something had intruded into the secret room where he was practicing in seclusion.

Caught off guard, he screamed tragically immediately.

His body got burned right away. He smelt like roasted meat.

That lightning killed him in his secret room in a second.

Then the golden electrical light flew across the air and took away the box and the Beast Ring that Mo Guting had on him.

Boom!

It did not linger there when it had completed all this.

It suddenly created another flash of lightning and another rumble of thunder. The lightning struck the door of Mo Guting’s secret room and bombed it open right away.

The golden electrical light disappeared from the room all of a sudden after staying there quietly for 0.2 seconds.

“Who is there?”

Someone in the distance hurried to run over after hearing the noise.

On the other side, Jiu Zhigao from the Sacred Fire Clan, who was in a heated conversation with Ye Xuan, frowned at the noise.

“Anything wrong?”

Ye Xuan asked out of curiosity.

And he looked into the distance at the same time.

“No idea. But that is Mo Guting’s place. We can ignore it.”

Jiu Zhigao looked into the distance, too. Then he snorted coldly and stopped paying more attention to the noise.

Ye Xuan remained in silence due to Jiu Zhigao’s response. He did not bring this up again. Then he asked, “Star Son Jiu Zhigao, about the Challenger-level Secret Treasure you mentioned earlier, how many fragments of it have we collected?”

“Not many. We’ve only collected about one-third of them.”

Jiu Zhigao shook his head. “The periphery of the ruins where those fragments are is in a black water area at the center of the Blue Water Lake.”

“The farthest you can see when you get into that black water area is between three and six feet away. It’s impossible to see farther.”

“It’s the same for your beasts. And the black water there is very thick. Even sea beasts cannot advance fast in the water.”

“That’s why we have only collected one-third of the fragments, although we have devoted a lot of time to the search. And the one-third is only a number that I estimate.”

“But anyways, Mo Guting has all of the fragments now.”

“Well, I see.”

Ye Xuan nodded. He got to know the situation here better from Jiu Zhigao’s explanation.

Whoosh!

While the two were talking, a man flew over in a hurry from far away.

He said to Jiu Zhigao as soon as he landed, “Star Son, bad news. His future Highness Mo Guting got killed in a surprise attack in his secret room.”

“What?”

Jiu Zhigao panicked.

Mo Guting had been with them, and he had parted with them only not long ago. How come he was suddenly dead?

And it was quite shocking that he got killed in a surprise attack. Did any Beast Tamer from the Silver Blood Clan intrude into this place? But how was that possible?

This place was so heavily guarded, so if some Beast Tamer had really intruded in here, this person must be powerful.

Ye Xuan also looked astonished and frightened.

But since he had neither eyes nor a nose.

All he could do to show his emotion was to twist his face.

Fang Luotian was also astonished and shocked. However, when he looked at Ye Xuan, the twist of the latter’s face seemed to smile somehow.

Seeing that, he could not help but assume that even seemed quite unlikely to himself.

But it can’t be true! He thought.

If that is what is happening, this dude must be crazy.

“Come on, let’s go and see what happened!”

Jiu Zhigao led a group to Mo Guting’s secret room as soon as he came to himself from the shock.

He was actually happy to see Mo Guting dead. However, Mo Guting died at their base camp, and his death was so suspicious.

He could not help but feel worried, too.

Seeing Jiu Zhigao leaving, Ye Xuan hurried to follow him.

They arrived at Mo Guting’s secret room very quickly.

And they saw Mo Guting’s scorched dead body that had been carried out of the secret room as soon as they arrived there.

“How... How... How is it possible?” Looking at Mo Guting’s dead body, Ye Xuan was extremely shocked. “His Highness Guting was really assassinated. Didn’t he part with us only just now? Who the hell did this?”

Then he glanced at the several men who had left with Mo Guting together.

Jiu Zhigao looked at them, too.

“His Highness, Star Son.” Ye Xuan and Jiu Zhigao’s gazes frightened those people to death. They explained immediately, “His Highness Mo Guting went back to his secret room as soon as we parted with him.”

“We saw his Highness go back to his secret room with our own eyes. But in less than three seconds, we heard a blare come from his secret room.”

“We ran over here right away and saw his Highness lying on the ground when we arrived, and the secret room is in a mess.”

“The door is broken, and everything in there was damaged. The Beast Ring and other things his Highness always had on him were all gone!”

“You mean someone that had been hiding in the secret room killed his Highness Mo Guting upon his coming back?”

Ye Xuan flew into a rage before Jiu Zhigao said anything. He said, “Where were you? If it was only three seconds, you couldn’t have gone very far away! How long would it take you to move your asses here after you heard the noise? Even if you were slow indeed, it wouldn’t have taken you more than one second, would it?”

“However, none of you saw the murderer?”

“I just arrived here. And his Highness Mo Guting was killed upon my arrival. How can I explain to the Alliance when I go back?”

Ye Xuan hit the ceiling.

Spits flew far away from between his lips. The Beast Tamers who had been with Mo Guting had to lower their heads to avoid his spits.

There were two Beast Tamers on the peak Gold level among them.

And both of them were the most trusted followers of Mo Guting.

However, facing Ye Xuan’s blame, they could not refute it.

This whole thing was just too weird.

“Your Highness, Cold Ice, calm down. Calm down, please.”

Jiu Zhigao understood how Ye Xuan was feeling at the moment.

He was in a terrible mood, too.

Mo Guting died under his nose. Although his parents were powerful, he was afraid he would be punished severely when he went back.

After all, Mo Guting was in a high position. He was a future Sacred Son of the Alliance.

Not to mention that Mo Guting’s father was the mad man Mo Polun.

Even few people in the Holy-Eyed Clan had the nerve to provoke that mad man. Let alone the Sacred Fire Clan.

“Star Son Jiu Zhigao, I can’t calm down. Although I am a future Sacred Son of the Alliance, my clan...”

Ye Xuan took a deep breath, trying hard to stop spitting.

The spitting was kind of an emotional release for him, so he was feeling a lot better.

“I know. I know. But we should find the murderer as soon as possible. That is what matters most now. Otherwise, all of us will probably lose our lives.”

Jiu Zhigao could really empathize with Ye Xuan.

Mo Guting died here. Even he would be affected.

Let alone Ye Xuan, a clansman of the Faceless Clan.

Ye Xuan was a future Sacred Son of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets. However, a person in a high position could still lose everything anytime if he did not have influential supports backing him up.

In that case, all the high position would bring him was a good reputation but not real power.

Boom!

A blare came from far away when Jiu Zhigao had just finished speaking.

“Ah!”

And a scream came along with the blare.

“What...”

The crowd there was struck dumb by the noise.

“The nerve! Did the murderer kill our men again? How dare he! Bastard, if I can’t catch you today, I, Cold Ice, swear I will quit from the Faceless Clan!”

However, Ye Xuan reacted immediately.

He waved his hand to call the Spiritual Oceanic White Jiao out.

He told it to enlarge itself to about one hundred and twenty feet long and fly with him into the distance.

The Spiritual Oceanic White Jiao was super fast. It arrived at the source of the noise in the blink of an eye.

Ye Xuan looked around upon arrival and saw a scorched dead body of an Ox Horn Beast Tamer lying on the ground.

Except for that, he did not see anyone else. He did not even see the shadow of the murderer.

He twisted his face again immediately.

He was disguised as a Faceless at the moment, and no one could tell what expression a Faceless was wearing since all of them were faceless.

However, seeing a face twisting to such an extent, people would usually assume he was furious.

“Damn it!”

While Ye Xuan was twisting his face, Jiu Zhigao and others also arrived.

They were shocked by how fast Ye Xuan had reacted.

And they were also shocked by how fast the Spiritual Oceanic White Jiao could fly.

But despite the shock, their faces immediately fell when they had seen the dead body of the Ox Horn Beast Tamer on the ground, whose wound looked the same as the wound of Mo Guting.

Another man died.

And the crime scene was less than one foot away from them.

They failed to catch the murderer despite their proximity to the crime scene.

“Give my order. Everyone must stay on guard. This is probably a scheme of the Silver Blood Clan. They probably will attack us very soon.”

Ye Xuan ordered when Jiu Zhigao and others were still in shock.

Ye Xuan was the current person in charge because Jiu Zhiduo, Jiu Zhigao’s bigger brother, was cultivating in seclusion.

Only Jiu Zhigao could take advantage of the power of his clan to hold Ye Xuan down slightly.

“Have you heard that? Pass on the order. Everyone must send their beasts out, including you guys!”

Jiu Zhigao shouted when he had heard Ye Xuan’s order, although others were still hesitating.

Awesome!

Ye Xuan gave Jiu Zhigao a thumbs-up in his head.

“Eh?”

However, Ye Xuan whispered as soon as Jiu Zhigao gave the order. Looking at Jiu Zhigao, he said, “Star Son, something is not right. Look, isn’t this the direction to the ruins you told me about just now?”

As he spoke, he pointed at Mo Guting’s death scene first and then drew an invisible line with his hand from it to the Ox Horn’s death scene.

“Shoot!”

Seeing the line Ye Xuan had drawn, Jiu Zhigao turned pale right away. “I see. The real target of the murderer is the ruins!”

He headed for the ruins in the distance right away.

“Come on. What are you waiting for?”

Ye Xuan tapped Fang Luotian, perplexed in the whole process, and followed Jiu Zhigao immediately.
