Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled-Chapter 383 - 379: Four Clans and Loose Cultivators in Chaos

Chapter 383: Chapter 379: Four Clans and Loose Cultivators in Chaos

Ximen Qing’s expression carried a hint of impatience, "Let’s just hope he doesn’t come."

He seemed somewhat agitated, glancing around at the surroundings, and then it was as if something had jolted him.

"The older one has a very high attainment in the Great Dao of Space, could he be hiding in some corner we’re unaware of?"

"It’s simply so annoying, where on earth did these two come from?"

"I’ve never heard of their names before, not just in the Infinite Divine Domain but in any other Divine Domain either. Such outstanding talent is unheard of."

"To know they’re holding an Ancient Divine Artifact, in any Divine Domain, that would be enough to make them famous."

He irritably squeezed his wrist, "I’ve even recently heard a funny rumor."

Nangong Lian looked puzzled, "What rumor? It’s even funny to you?"

Ximen Qing, with a faint smile, began to say, "Someone said these two came up from the Lower Realm."

At first, Nangong Lian thought there might be some insider information, but after hearing Ximen Qing’s words, she was completely taken aback.

"Who spread such a ridiculous rumor... it’s utterly hysterical..."

"The Lower Realm?"

"Even if they said these two were reincarnations of Ancient Gods, that would be more believable than crawling up from the Lower Realm, such nonsense!"

Ximen Qing shrugged, his faint smile inadvertently resting on Beiming Ye.

"Who knows what the person spreading this was thinking."

His expression carried a hint of suspicion and humor as it landed on Beiming Ye, who had remained silent since entering the Secret Realm, seeming very doubtful of his actions.

Beiming Ye raised his brow, maintaining his usual demeanor, not engaging with their words, but instead focusing his gaze on the golden light in mid-air.

"It seems this Secret Treasure doesn’t quite match my attributes either."

Nangong Lian and Ximen Qing’s attention was pulled back to the Secret Treasure. They both frowned and then simultaneously sighed.

"No matter what, let’s first get it before discussing the distribution."

"Perhaps it’s just the Secret Treasure’s attributes, and in actual use, there may be no attribute distinction?"

At these words, the three of them inadvertently showed a hint of disdain on their faces.

Although cultivators of other Great Daos can use Secret Treasures of different Daos, it doesn’t significantly enhance themselves, it’s just purely...

While the three of them harbored their own thoughts, the golden light in mid-air suddenly began to condense, and the surrounding temperature became increasingly scorching.

Someone suddenly called out: "The Secret Treasure has emerged, everyone spread out, the people from the Four Great Clans are coming."

Around them, the expressions of the loose cultivators changed in an instant.

Even though they knew they had little chance of obtaining this Secret Treasure, the fact that all the Treasures had been monopolized by the Four Great Clans during this period was enough to make these people exasperated.

Now, with a brand-new Secret Treasure appearing, seemingly of no low grade, they were genuinely unwilling to give up.

Someone exchanged glances, gritting their teeth inwardly.

If they could seize this Secret Treasure, could they possibly, like those two loose cultivators with the Ancient Divine Artifacts, launch an attack on the Four Great Clans?

Nobody knows the answer to this.

But the cost of verifying this answer might be unbearable for some.

Nangong Lian noticed the strange atmosphere around her, it was clear what was happening.

Her expression changed slightly, and she ordered the Nangong Clan’s guards behind her harshly, "Stay vigilant! Don’t let the loose cultivators get close!"

Nangong Lian wouldn’t have said anything if she hadn’t, but as soon as she did, the loose cultivators, who had only been slightly wary, tore apart the façade of peace.

Whether it was the loose cultivators who attacked first or the Four Great Clans started it, a flame suddenly appeared among the crowd.

The flame seemed to be transmitted here by someone and then, aided by some of the golden light above, contracted for a moment before abruptly exploding in the crowd.

The core disciples of the Four Great Clans vaguely felt something was wrong, but the loose cultivators around them were already set ablaze.

They couldn’t determine where the flame originated and could only instinctively attack everyone they could see around them.

Meanwhile, in the void, Xia Feng was watching with interest as these people tangled in mishmash, rubbing his chin and preparing to add fuel to the fire.

The hostile atmosphere just now was so apparent, yet neither side had acted first.

Xia Feng wanted to help them speed things up.

It needed to get chaotic, it needed to be a fight to be interesting, and only then could he fish in troubled waters.

Beside him, Xia Tianming frowned, glancing toward Nangong Lian’s direction, clicking his tongue lightly.

"These few aren’t fools, they’ve clearly noticed something’s off."

Xia Feng whistled, his expression mixing a smile, "So what if they notice, can they still attempt to control the situation now?"

Forget about anything else, just right now, loose cultivators and the Four Great Clans people have completely mixed together.

The two sides would love nothing more than to crush each other’s skulls.

Not to mention, even among the Four Great Clan’s own members, there’s no mutual understanding, lots of backstabbing, and dishonorable tricks, making their own entanglement horribly messy.

Now unless someone with cultivation surpassing everyone intervenes to forcibly separate these people, this chaos cannot be stopped.

And at this moment, the tremors that had been shaking the surrounding peaks suddenly came to a halt.

The golden light in mid-air suddenly burst, and the flame Xia Feng had ignited at the start was directly swallowed up by the golden light.

The Secret Treasure has emerged.

For an instant, everyone dropped their enmity and madly charged towards the mountain, hoping to be the first to reach the Secret Treasure.

Looking at the celestial phenomenon and commotion lasting for so long, it seemed more formidable than the Sword Spirit Xia Feng had; if one could seize it...

"Ah!"

As everyone’s thoughts were in turmoil, a loose cultivator at the forefront suddenly began to self-combust.

Without anyone attacking him, just by getting slightly close to that golden light, his body started to burn by itself.

The people behind abruptly halted, seeing this bizarre situation, and no one dared step forward to test that range.

The Sword Spirit in the Heaven-Burying Sword suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Hmm? Why did it appear so early?"

Xia Feng grasped the Heaven-Burying Sword, asking in confusion, "What is it?"

"Is it the cause of that cultivator’s self-combustion?"

The Sword Spirit slightly curled its lip, "I really don’t know if you’re lucky or unlucky; this Upper Grade Secret Treasure hasn’t appeared for several turns, and now it’s emerging just over ten days."
