Seeing Xu Yan’s gaze turn towards him, Shen Haizhou hurriedly put on a smile. “This bastard Dai Jun, he actually dared to threaten you, my brother, using the prestige of our family’s Refining God Ancestor. It’s simply outrageous.”
“I can’t just stand by and watch. I must teach him a lesson.”
Xu Yan’s mouth twitched at the corner and he turned his head to continue studying martial arts.
After this incident, all the prodigies in the Black Marsh Swamp started to secretly observe Xu Yan, this mysterious youth.
His power was unquestionable, he was very strong.
Guessing, was he the prodigy of a powerful Spirit Sect or just a Loose Cultivator?
It’s not that Loose Cultivators don’t have prodigies.
However, in Yuzhou it was unheard of for such a young prodigy to emerge.
Could it be that he is a prodigy who is a loose cultivator from another state?
Such a prodigious Loose Cultivator was usually sought after by powerful forces.
Apart from a small number of very proud Loose Cultivators, most would join the powerful forces based on their talent. After all, it’s good to lean on a big tree for shade.
And then they would be able to jump from the bottom martial artist rank and achieve a rise in status in one fell swoop.
The prodigies present began to suspect whether Xu Yan was one of these prodigies. Because of his outstanding talent, he was recruited by a powerful force.
Only that, there was still some pride in his bones, which might be why even in such a grand event, he didn’t wear the signifying clothes of his sect.
Otherwise, even the proudest Loose Cultivator would not dare to be fearless in the face of the might of a first-class family’s Refining God Heavenly Man.
Shen Haizhou sat on the ground, looking at Xu Yan on the boulder with a face full of unease and conflict, occasionally showing a pain in his heart.
The loss this time was quite big!
His treasures, accumulated over a long period of time, were all gone!
With Shen Haizhou’s retreat, the tumult ended and he occupied Dai Jun’s spot. The other prodigies of powerful forces felt Shen Haizhou was humiliated, but after all, it was not their faces that were lost.
Moreover, Xu Yan was powerful and seemed to be a top-tier Spirit Sect disciple. Therefore, until it was confirmed that he was indeed a Loose Cultivator, none of the prodigies would take rash action.
Dai Jun watched Shen Haizhou with a dark face, gnashing his teeth, secretly vowing to reclaim this spot once his Dai Family established a relationship with the Transcendent Spirit Sect.
Then he thought of his sister, how come she hasn’t arrived yet?
The entrance Wuhan Mausoleum is only three to five days away.
“Could it be, they have given up on entering the Wuhan Mausoleum?” Dai Jun wondered.
Three days later, the toxic miasma in the Black Cloud Swamp became fainter, and the Black Rock Mountain in the center of the marsh became clearly visible.
Everyone was shaken and prepared to enter Wuhan Mausoleum and compete for the treasures inside.
Xu Yan finished studying martial arts and furrowed his brows slightly. Shen Haizhou kept looking at him, his face was full of conflict and pain.
Something told him he had suffered a great loss.
“Did his storage pouch contain rare treasures?” Xu Yan thought.
He was overjoyed and immediately took out Shen Haizhou’s storage pouch.
When he opened it and looked inside, he couldn’t help feeling surprised. True to his status as the young master of a first-class family, he probably had over a hundred thousand Spirit Crystals. There were several stacks of something that looked like Spirit Bills.
There were dozens of five-rank Spiritual Medicine plants, hundreds of six-rank ones.
Four-rank Spiritual Medicine plants were also gained, alongside numerous bottles and jars. In two of the jars were what should be the Gathering Spirit Pills he mentioned.
Seeing these bottles and jars, Xu Yan felt a pain. How many Spiritual Medicine plants had been wasted!
Besides, in the storage bag there was also a long knife, a set of armor, both of high quality, which seemed to have exceeded the rank of treasures.
What specially drew Xu Yan’s attention, was a purple wooden box inside. It seemed the item inside was particularly precious.
Xu Yan’s spirits lifted. Was this the item that caused Shen Haizhou to feel pain?
He couldn’t help but grow curious.
He took out the purple box.
The purple wooden box, made of some unknown wood, had a faint, delicate fragrance, and was carved with pictures of two seductive dancing women.
He lifted the lid of the box slightly and was taken aback.
The first thing he saw were purple, pink, white, semi-transparent… female intimate clothing?
His face gradually grew strange. He opened the box fully and moved aside the colorful little clothes, and underneath, he found booklets and scrolls of pictures.
He picked up a booklet and opened it. What he saw was a picture of a man and a woman closely entwined together, each moment described next to it.
He put it down and picked up another one. Xu Yan’s expression became even stranger.
The booklets were all erotic literature with accompanying pictures.
He unrolled a scroll, and there were pictures of naked women, elegantly beautiful, with every hair meticulously detailed. Each scroll depicted several different women in an array of postures.
He opened another scroll, and once again there were pictures of women in all manners of poses. Every woman was beautiful and enchanting, some were charming, some were adorable, some were innocent…
Xu Yan’s face looked strange. He did not continue to look further, but closed the box and look towards Shen Haizhou, who had a pained and conflicted expression. Xu Yan fell into contemplation.
What pained him was probably not the Spirit Crystals or the Spiritual Medicines, but the items in this box!
Seeing Xu Yan look over, Shen Haizhou hastily put on a smile. His slightly chubby face made as much effort as possible to look honest.
Xu Yan lifted the wood box and said, “What on earth is in here?”
Feigning to throw it into the Black Cloud Swamp, Shen Haizhou was instantly alarmed, springing up and saying, “Brother, wait, wait! These are my treasures!”
Ignoring the danger, he hurriedly approached the huge rock, rubbing his hands and putting on an obsequious smile and said, “Brother, if you don’t want it, give it back to me. It took me a lot of time to get these things..”
