The faces of both the Zhenwu and Heiyun Main City factions were filled with a hint of greed. As they blocked the Green Lotus Sect’s way, the high-level officials of the Heiyun Main City spoke with an eerie tone: “Sect Leader Li, what’s the hurry in leaving? You haven’t even greeted us from Heiyun Main City and Zhenwu Main City yet.”

Li Ruoxiang looked at the two factions blocking their path, not surprised at all. She calmly stood with her hands behind her back: “Oh, so now I need to greet you before I leave? Since when did this rule exist?”

“Hehe, there’s no need to greet us; we’ve come to you now. That being the case, there’s no need to hide what we have to say. Sect Leader Li, won’t you let us have a look at the treasure you obtained?” A high-ranking official from Zhenwu Main City smiled slightly, his words laced with a hint of threat.

Yang Chen glanced at both parties, then at Li Ruoxiang, and realized that she remained calm and composed, her expression unshaken, with no intention of backing down at all.

It appeared that Li Ruoxiang’s appointment as the Sect Leader of Green Lotus Sect was not purely coincidental.

Facing the inquiries from both factions, Li Ruoxiang still remained very calm and utterly indifferent: “So, am I obliged to tell you about this?”

“We’re simply curious.” The high-level officials of Heiyun Main City spoke darkly: “Sect Leader Li, sometimes it’s necessary to satisfy others’ curiosity. If you don’t satisfy our two factions, we might take some extreme actions.”

Li Ruoxiang scoffed: “What a joke! What, because Li Ruoxiang doesn’t show you, you dare to take action against my Green Lotus Sect? Zhenwu Main City, you’ve already obtained the Silver Dragon Scissors and still covet more treasures. Do you think you can deal with my Green Lotus Sect by joining forces with Heiyun Main City? If you really want to play, give it a try!”

Li Ruoxiang’s words were full of confidence.

Even facing a two-on-one situation, she remained so.

Frankly, Li Ruoxiang had no intention of taking out the treasure.

She knew very well that, as long as it remained a mystery, these two factions wouldn’t seriously fight over it even if they were curious. But once the treasure was taken out, things would be different.

Furthermore, would these two factions believe it if she took the treasure out? Yang Chen had obtained the Strange Fire, not the agreed-upon Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure.

Yang Chen was surprised by Li Ruoxiang’s attitude. Her words were filled with confidence, and with a cold glance, she managed to scare both Heiyun Main City and Zhenwu Main City.

Their arrogance had clearly diminished a lot, for they knew their individual strength was not equal to that of the Green Lotus Sect.

“So, is there anything else to say? I think my intentions should be clear enough; if you want to see the treasure, there’s no way. If you don’t accept it, you can try to rob it. Otherwise, we’ll just fight it out here. If you don’t have the nerve, best make way.” Li Ruoxiang was unyielding in her tone.

“What a domineering woman.” Yang Chen muttered to himself.

He had witnessed negotiations before, but none like this unusual one.

Moreover, both Heiyun Main City and Zhenwu Main City were truly scared.

Especially Zhenwu Main City, which surprisingly made way for them. The group moved aside, their intentions more than clear.

“Let’s go.” Li Ruoxiang gestured, leading her disciples through the path that had been opened with a swaggering walk.

Heiyun Main City’s officials watched with a dark expression. As soon as Li Ruoxiang and the Green Lotus Sect’s people left, they whispered angrily: “Zhenwu Main City, what do you think you’re doing? Weren’t we supposed to force the Green Lotus Sect together to hand over the treasure?”

“Heh, in the end, that was just an idea from your Heiyun Main City. As the Green Lotus Sect said, we have already obtained the Silver Dragon Scissors, so there’s no need for a life-or-death struggle with them. Instead, we need to worry about someone who hasn’t obtained a powerful Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Treasure pulling dirty tricks!” A high-level official from Zhenwu Main City sneered.

There was a reason for them to make way.

After being scolded by Li Ruoxiang just now, they had come to their senses.

What advantage would they gain from victory over the Green Lotus Sect if the alliance between Zhenwu Main City and Heiyun Main City held no promises?

In truth, Zhenwu Main City already had the Silver Dragon Scissors, and Green Lotus Sect’s obtaining another treasure would only balance the scales. There was no need for them to worry, but rather it was the Heiyun Main City that rightly had concerns. Yet, why should they care?

“You people are unreliable!” The men of the Heiyun Main City clenched their teeth.

Of course, they were unwilling to accept this, as they were the sole faction of the three major forces that hadn’t obtained any treasure in this operation.

“Heh, think what you want!” The people from Zhenwu Main City didn’t say much more, and instead rose and left.

The people of Heiyun Main City gnashed their teeth in anger but ultimately couldn’t say anything else.

…

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, twenty days had gone by.

For the past twenty days, under Li Ruoxiang’s leadership, the Green Lotus Sect had hurried onward, finally arriving in a place called Haohai County.

Although Haohai County also had a Haohai Main City, it held little presence, as the headquarters of the Green Lotus Sect was located within Haohai County. Naturally, the Haohai Main City would be overshadowed by the great power of the Green Lotus Sect. In fact, Haohai Main City hadn’t even been invited to attend the Black Dragon Sect’s event.

Yang Chen and the Green Lotus Sect disciples had learned a lot about Haohai Main City on the journey. It was a frontier power, but unlike North Mountain County, Haohai Main City bordered the Western 42 Regions!

Green Lotus Sect was also one of the strongest forces in the area bordering the Western 42 Regions.

However, the reason for being the strongest was due to its proximity to the Western 42 Regions.

According to the Green Lotus Sect disciples, the overall strength of the Western 42 Regions was a level higher than the Eastern 36 Regions. What they were uncertain about was the exact difference, as they had only encountered those from the frontier of the Western 42 Regions.

And those forces from the Western 42 Regions’ frontier were merely the weakest lot!

These female disciples clearly felt helpless about this.

Because, when compared with the Green Lotus Sect, those weakest forces in the border areas of the Western 42 Regions seemed to be barely weaker, if at all.

Yang Chen now had some understanding of the Eastern 36 Regions and the Western 42 Regions.
