Chapter 1206: Chapter 1206: Wang Tong’s Despicableness
Wang Tong and Hong Cheng took Xu Nian and Lin Ruolan directly out of Ghost City.
They flew all the way towards the east, covering nearly a thousand miles.
Finally, they stopped in front of a gigantic mountain range.
This mountain range was immensely large, standing a full seven thousand zhang tall, like a colossal wall in front of Xu Nian and the others.
"This is Dragon King Mountain, the Taihao Stones you mentioned are all mined from here," Hong Cheng pointed to the enormous mountain range ahead and said.
Xu Nian and Lin Ruolan both looked towards this Dragon King Mountain Range.
Xu Nian directly utilized the Gray Dragon Eye, and soon discovered that beneath the Dragon King Mountain Range were a large number of Taihao Stones.
"It really is a Taihao Stone Mountain Range, it seems the Taihao Mother Qi is deep within this range," Xu Nian transmitted to Lin Ruolan.
"Lucky indeed, I didn’t expect to find Taihao Mother Qi in this Small World, but this range looks extremely tough, it might not be easy to mine Taihao Mother Qi," Lin Ruolan said.
Xu Nian nodded.
The rocky ground of this mountain is very similar to the palace rocks in Ghost City, some of the rock components are these gray stones.
Mining Taihao Mother Qi is indeed a very difficult task.
"How about it, is there a large amount of Taihao Stones?" Hong Cheng asked excitedly.
"Yes, there is indeed a large amount of Taihao Stones inside. It’s a massive Taihao Stone Mountain Range, but the mountain body is extremely tough, it seems difficult to mine," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"Indeed, it’s not easy to mine. Otherwise, these stones would have spread across the Three Great Alliances long ago. People mine these stones because they find them peculiar, but haven’t found a way to use them. Had it not been for Brother Xu’s enlightenment, we wouldn’t have known these stones have such marvelous uses," Hong Cheng said with a smile.
"Brother Hong, what are your plans on mining? If it’s dug little by little, it might take hundreds or thousands of years and by then, the other two alliances will inevitably know about this. Then the secret of the Taihao Stone will no longer be kept," Xu Nian said.
"Haha, don’t worry about that, Brother Xu. My second brother has a treasure that can easily break through the mountain rocks, speeding up the mining," Hong Cheng said with a smile.
"Huh? Such a treasure exists?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.
"Yes, my second brother’s Heavenly Dragon Cone is quite formidable. With one strike, it can shatter a large part of the mountain, making digging easy. Second Brother, take out your Heavenly Dragon Cone and show them," Hong Cheng turned to Wang Tong and said with a smile.
Xu Nian also turned to Wang Tong.
To have one strike shatter a large part of the mountain, such an item must be an Immortal Artifact, of likely high Grade.
"Hmph, third brother, don’t be tricked by them. I highly suspect he’s a spy from another alliance," Wang Tong said coldly.
"Impossible, second brother, they’re from outside, look at their eyes if you don’t believe," Hong Cheng quickly explained.
Wang Tong sneered: "Appearances can change, can you really be sure they’re not from another alliance?"
Upon hearing this, Hong Cheng also didn’t know what to say.
He really had no evidence to prove Xu Nian and Lin Ruolan were outsiders.
"But brother, if they were spies sent by another alliance, why would they tell us the secret of Taihao Stones? It doesn’t make sense!" Hong Cheng said.
"Are you truly foolish or pretending? Taihao Stones are extremely difficult to mine, only my Heavenly Dragon Cone can shatter this Dragon King Range. They want to use us to mine Taihao Stones and might have already ambushed people from other alliances," Wang Tong said.
Upon hearing this, Hong Cheng’s face showed suspicion.
Xu Nian and Lin Ruolan exchanged mocking glances.
This Wang Tong is truly cunning.
Although knowing they were outsiders, he claimed they were spies to justify attacking them.
"Brother, what do you plan to do?" Hong Cheng asked with a frown.
"Kill the man, capture the woman and torture her to reveal her identity," Wang Tong said.
"But what if they’re innocent?" Hong Cheng quickly asked.
"Hmph, even if they’re innocent, they must die. This is too crucial; they might reveal it. The best way to ensure silence is to kill. Moreover, this woman is quite attractive, if she isn’t, she can warm my bed," Wang Tong said with a cold smile.
"Second brother! Is this alright?" Hong Cheng quickly frowned.
"Hmph, nothing’s wrong, they entered our world with agendas. If they die, so be it. Don’t forget, they have zero Power of Insight here," Wang Tong said with a sneer.
Hong Cheng’s expression wavered; he wished to stop Wang Tong but felt helpless.
"A beauty is a curse, seems I’ve fallen for your trap again. This guy wants to make you his spoil," Xu Nian transmitted to Lin Ruolan beside him with a smile.
"Hmph, he dares! It’s a good excuse to kill him and get his Heavenly Dragon Cone for the Taihao Mother Qi," Lin Ruolan sneered contemptuously.
Xu Nian smiled wryly.
He truly had no solution if a fight broke out.
Unable to use Profound Argumentation, whereas they could.
Only by using the Star Axe could he challenge Wang Tong.
Even against Hong Cheng, he wasn’t sure he’d win.
"Boy, you’ve heard our conversation. Anything to say?" Wang Tong coldly asked Xu Nian.
In his view, a youth at Earth Immortal Realm Middle Stage is worth killing.
If this youth belongs to another alliance, killing him brings merit.
If from outside, it’s even better. Killing him poses no threat of revenge.
So, from the start, he intended to slay the young man, capture the woman as a slave.
Such beauty isn’t found in their alliance.
This outstanding beauty cannot be easily let go.
He lured them here specifically to make his move.
"I have nothing to say, but a reminder: not all women are weak; some are fiercer than men. Hope you won’t regret your decision," Xu Nian said with a smile.
"Regret? Never. Since you have nothing to say, I’ll send you to see King Yan," Wang Tong said coldly, intending to strike Xu Nian next.
Xu Nian turned to Lin Ruolan beside him; she stayed indifferent: "He plans to kill you, not me."
Xu Nian’s face turned dark.
This woman is unwilling to act?
