Who Let Him Cultivate?!-Chapter 779 - 778 Juxuan Island Four Thieves: Why Is There a Person in the Coffin?

```

The two Dragon Clan members conducting the covert surveillance felt their scalps tingle with numbness, having initially suspected an outsider was the culprit, they hadn’t expected an inside job involving an Elder.

The one bold enough to commit such an outrageous act was an Elder whose strength should not be underestimated.

"What do we do now, do we catch them all?"

The composed Dragon Clan member looked at his companion with surprise, "Are you out of your mind? There are eight of them, four at the Spirit Transformation Stage, and four at the Nascent Soul Stage, and those four at the Nascent Soul Stage seem as if they could match the ones at the Spirit Transformation Stage in battle. Just the two of us, catch them?"

"Then what do we do?"

"Here’s the plan, you go and notify the Elders, and I’ll stay here to keep watch. Those four at the Nascent Soul Stage who got the Dragon Ball will definitely hand it over to the Elder involved in the crime. We’ll catch them red-handed, and we’ll both be greatly credited!"

"You’re the clever one!" Realizing the urgency, his companion promptly set off to alert the Elders.

Lu Yang and the four from Juxuan Island completed their trade and successfully obtained the Ancestral Dragon Grass.

The leader of the Juxuan Island thieves sent a secret message, "There’s been a change of plans, move out quickly!"

The three underlings were puzzled, "Has our theft of the Dragon Ball been exposed?"

The leader looked at his three underlings with an air of frustration, as if to say, if it weren’t for me, Juxuan Island would be nothing; you three would have been caught long ago.

"Didn’t you hear what those four at the Nascent Soul Stage said? The grass belonged to an Elder of the Dragon Clan. We stole his grass, do you think he would leave us a way out?"

"Once the four at the Nascent Soul Stage report back to the Dragon Clan Elder, we’re all done for!"

If they were still at the Body Integration Realm, there might have been room for maneuvering, but against an Elder of the Dragon Clan, even four at the Spirit Transformation Stage wouldn’t last a single claw swipe!

"So what do we do?"

With gritted teeth, the leader made his decision, "No time to worry about that, let’s quickly get to the guild and move the Dragon Ball."

Meanwhile, Lu Yang and his group decided to find the black-robed Dragon Clan Elder.

Seeing the two groups split into different directions, the composed Dragon Clan member observing from the shadows followed Lu Yang’s group without hesitation.

As for the four thieves from Juxuan Island, once the Elder arrived, even if they managed to escape Sea City, the Dragon Clan could capture them again!

Such was the confidence of the East Sea’s Dragon Clan!

The Juxuan Island thieves hurried back to their guild, where it was already the third day, and Manager Liu had long been waiting at the front reception.

The leader urgently sent a message, "Old Liu, quickly bring out the coffin!"

"What happened, has it been exposed?" Manager Liu could tell from the leader’s tone that something was amiss.

You look different today?

You four did not look like this three days ago when you stored the coffin, very cautious of you.

"Not yet, just retrieve it, and if the Dragon Clan questions you, just play it cool, they won’t suspect you!" The leader didn’t forget to reassure Manager Liu, otherwise if Manager Liu thought they were unreliable and decided to report them to claim merits, that would be troublesome.

"OK."

Manager Liu entered the storeroom, passed the coffin covered with Su Yu’s black cloth, and retrieved the coffin that he had personally stored three days ago.

"Here, be careful with it." Manager Liu carried out the coffin.

"We shall meet again." The Juxuan Island thieves took the coffin and hurriedly left.

While transporting the coffin, they did not forget to put on a mournful façade, pretending as if they had lost a dear brother.

To be a great thief, one needed not only high cultivation but also a sharp mind and good acting skills. Passersby believed that the coffin indeed contained a dead person.

The four thieves, crying their eyes out, tricked the guards and left Sea City with the coffin.

Having left Sea City and traveled about two miles, the four took out Godspeed Talismans, affixed them to their legs, and sped up their pace to distance themselves from this place of trouble as fast as possible.

They raced along, changing their course numerous times, sometimes flying through the sky, sometimes swimming through water, until they finally arrived at the predetermined island.

"Phew, we’re safe now."

Their hearts had been pounding with fear on the journey there, worried that the Long Clan would discover their actions and thwart their efforts at the last moment.

"We did it, quickly take out the Dragon Ball!" The second brother exclaimed with excitement, hardly believing they had been successful. Though there had been unexpected incidents along the way, their eldest brother’s wise decisions had turned danger into safety.

The eldest brother was also thrilled. He pushed open the coffin and exchanged a glance with Xiao Xinghai who lay inside, then froze.

In silence, he closed the coffin lid, and when he opened it again, Xiao Xinghai was still lying inside.

Xiao Xinghai yawned, "Have I been out for three days already? Did you get the Dragon’s Blood?"

"Did you change your appearances again to avoid recognition?"

Xiao Xinghai had heard that the Long Clan didn’t have good relations with both the Dao Seeking Sect Master and the Grand Elder, so it made sense to be cautious.

The four thieves of Juxuan Island looked at Xiao Xinghai with uncertainty. As cultivators who had lived for more than a thousand years, they were in tune with the movements of those in the Body Integration Realm, and were not familiar with Xiao Xinghai, a young Kun Peng who had only been practicing for three years.

"Elder brother, what’s happening? Has the Dragon Ball become sentient?" the youngest brother asked telepathically.

The eldest brother nodded secretly, sharing the same thought, "It’s very possible. I’ve heard that some exquisitely crafted Immortal Artifacts and Semi-Immortal Artifacts can develop spiritual intelligence and transform into human form."

"And did you hear him? He said ’have I been out for three days,’ referring to us stealing him from the Dragon Palace three days ago. It seems like he’s quite happy to be out of the Dragon Palace."

"While he’s at the Nascent Soul Stage, he could tell at a glance our appearances were disguised, which isn’t something a Nascent Soul Stage could normally do!"

"What did he mean by Dragon’s Blood then?"

"Unclear, could it be that the Dragon Ball needs to absorb Dragon’s Blood to exhibit its true effects?" the second brother speculated.

Being at the Integration Stage, they did have some Dragon’s Blood on hand, though it wasn’t very fresh.

"Is this what you need?" The eldest brother took out a small jar of Dragon’s Blood from his Storage Ring, his tone involuntarily respectful.

"This isn’t very fresh." Xiao Xinghai felt that the Long Clan really wasn’t righteous, bullying Lu Yang and his friends from afar, and for a completed mission, they provided old blood.

"Please make do with it," the eldest brother said with an apologetic smile.

"Pour it in here," Xiao Xinghai said, lying flat in the coffin, currently in a severely injured state.

Xiao Xinghai sighed, "If not for the constraints of the rules, I wouldn’t have to rely on absorbing Dragon’s Blood to recover."

The hearts of the four thieves jolted; indeed, the Dragon Ball had come alive and, after transforming into a human, its strength had diminished significantly, necessitating the absorption of Dragon’s Blood to recover.

As for the rules he mentioned, they must be the result of conflicts between those at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage or even Semi-Immortal great powers.

The eldest brother reverently poured the Dragon’s Blood into the coffin, while Xiao Xinghai didn’t mind if his clothes got stained with blood; he lay there comfortably, absorbing the Dragon’s Blood, practicing the Dragon Transformation Manual.

As they heard the dragon’s roar coming from Xiao Xinghai’s body, the four thieves dared not slack off.

The eldest brother stood nearby, offering an apologetic smile, carefully choosing his words for fear of offending what they believed was the essence of the Dragon Ball.

"Brother Zhu, do you have any plans for what to do next?"

Xiao Xinghai was startled, "Brother Zhu? Who’s that, a nickname you’ve given me?"

"Isn’t your true form the Dragon Ball? If you don’t like that title, we can change it," they replied.

Xiao Xinghai was even more puzzled, "Have you lost your memories? I am Xiao Xinghai."

Xiao Xinghai and the four thieves of Juxuan Island looked at each other, their gazes filled with bafflement.

Then, the realization struck the four thieves, and they erupted in fury so loudly that their roars could be heard throughout the entire island.

"Where is the Dragon Ball?!"
