Inheritance?
Feeling the abnormality of Mount Tai, Ye Cangtian's mouth twitched. He never expected that the shield he snatched later would also come with an inheritance.
The gazes of Hun Qi and others present also became strange. Their luck was too good, wasn't it?
Fortunately, it was an inheritance related to the shield; otherwise, they would have been consumed by jealousy!
"Bastard! Die for me!"
On the other side, facing the same situation, the Tiger-headed General was furious and punched fiercely at Ye Cangtian.
He thought his inheritance was very secret, as not many people used shields. He didn't expect the opponent to snatch his shield.
This truly made him furious.
Hmph!
Ye Cangtian snorted coldly and directly grabbed the opponent's fist.
With a slight exertion, a crisp crack echoed. The Tiger-headed General's wrist was broken, and a muffled groan escaped his lips.
However, the Tiger-headed General did not stop. His body suddenly lunged forward, headbutting directly.
"Overestimating yourself!"
Ye Cangtian's expression turned icy, and he threw a punch.
Instantly, the Tiger-headed General's body trembled, and he was pinned in place, his life force extinguished.
The next moment, Ye Cangtian searched the Tiger-headed General's body and found a Qiankun bag, finally returning to the team.
This...
Looking at the Qiankun bag in Ye Cangtian's hand, Hun Qi and Hu Ben's eyes revealed envy.
They had already searched the second-floor hall and only found some unremarkable treasures, which were completely dispensable to them.
Yet, Ye Cangtian had successively seized two Qiankun bags, and the items within were bound to be superior to what they had obtained!
Therefore, both of them were now contemplating whether to take action themselves in the remaining three floors.
If the treasures on the last floor were still within Qiankun bags, then taking action would undoubtedly be the best choice, maximizing their chances of acquiring the Qiankun bags.
But now, a serious problem lay before them.
The last floor was certainly occupied by the manor's lord, and the Leopard-headed General and Tiger-headed General on this floor had cultivation realms reaching the eighth and ninth heavens.
Therefore, the lord of the manor was very likely a Heavenly level expert.
With the current strength of their team, dealing with a Heavenly level expert would still be a bit difficult!
Upon thinking this, Hu Ben gritted his teeth and chose to give up.
His idea was to let the lord of the manor exhaust Ye Cangtian's strength, after which he could snatch the treasures from Ye Cangtian.
Hun Qi, after a moment of hesitation, looked at Ye Cangtian and said, "Wild Mountain, how about we make a deal? Let us, Flying Cloud Pavilion, deal with the final lord of the manor, alright?"
"This... this doesn't seem right, does it?"
Ye Cangtian hesitated slightly, understanding their intention – they simply wanted to seize the Qiankun bag first.
Following this, Ye Cangtian continued, "We agreed that we would handle this pavilion. If you insist on interfering, then we need to agree beforehand."
"What?" Hun Qi asked instinctively.
Ye Cangtian smiled and said, "Firstly, we can search for treasures. Secondly..."
As he spoke, Ye Cangtian rubbed his fingers together, his meaning clear – if they wanted to benefit, they had to offer something first.
This...
Seeing Ye Cangtian's gesture, Hun Qi's brow furrowed tightly.
The Flying Cloud Pavilion taking action would definitely reduce the losses for Wild Mountain. How could the other party, having gained an advantage, have the nerve to ask for benefits?
"Wild Mountain, this is not fair of you!"
Hun Qi looked at Ye Cangtian and continued, "We are risking our lives to fight for you, and we haven't even asked for benefits! Is it appropriate for you to let us pass and then ask us for benefits?"
Ye Cangtian glanced at Hun Qi and said indifferently, "Hun Qi, you need to understand that you are asking me for a favor. If you are unwilling, we can always handle it ourselves!"
This...
With that sentence, Hun Qi's face turned red. The other party had clearly grasped his weakness.
But he also knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch. Since he wanted to get the Qiankun bag first, he had to pay a certain price.
"Boss, the next floor is the final lord of the manor, who has great treasures. We absolutely cannot give it to them!"
While Hun Qi was still calculating, Yao Bao'er's voice came through.
In her opinion, this was like enduring eighty-one trials and tribulations, only to have the opportunity to obtain the true scriptures snatched away by others.
It was truly not worth it!
"Don't worry, let's see what Hun Qi can offer first. If it's just some junk, then forget it."
Hearing Yao Bao'er's words, Ye Cangtian couldn't help but smile.
Hun Qi was still hesitating and weighing his options. At this moment, Yao Bao'er's words would both pressure Hun Qi into a deal and give him an opportunity to raise the price.
It was truly timely.
This...
Hearing their conversation, Hun Qi's eyes darted around.
After a short while, he gritted his teeth, took out a Qiankun bag, and threw it directly to Ye Cangtian, saying, "These are all yours!"
Hun Qi's heart ached. Although the Qiankun bag was not a treasure, it was all that the Flying Cloud Pavilion had obtained through desperate efforts, and he truly couldn't bear to hand it over.
After receiving the Qiankun bag, Ye Cangtian searched through it.
Most of it consisted of the corpses of demonic beasts, some treasures discovered in the secret realm, and the rest were various rare flowers and exotic herbs.
It could be said that most of it was useless. Only the rare flowers and exotic herbs might have value, but the problem was that he didn't know how to determine the age of these plants.
Therefore, Ye Cangtian directly threw the Qiankun bag to Yao Bao'er and said, "Bao'er, see if any of the rare flowers and exotic herbs inside have value?"
Upon receiving the Qiankun bag, Yao Bao'er briefly investigated it and then shook her head at Ye Cangtian, saying, "The medicinal herbs inside are not rare, and their years are insufficient!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian's gaze fell upon Hun Qi, and he said indifferently, "Hun Qi, since you're trying to fob us off with some junk, I think we should cancel our deal!"
After a pause, Ye Cangtian continued, "I believe the lord of the manor on the third floor will definitely have considerable treasures!"
As he spoke, Ye Cangtian took the Qiankun bag back from Yao Bao'er and then threw it directly back to Hun Qi.
Seeing Ye Cangtian turn to ascend the stairs leading to the third floor, Hun Qi became anxious.
He quickly stepped forward to block Ye Cangtian, then took out another Qiankun bag and handed it over, saying, "This is our general harvest since entering the rainforest. Is this enough?"
Ye Cangtian turned and handed the Qiankun bag to Yao Bao'er.
The next moment, Yao Bao'er smiled and nodded at Ye Cangtian, saying, "This is not bad. There are some heavenly and earthly treasures, which are barely acceptable."
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian made a gesture of invitation.
Seeing this, Hun Qi snorted coldly and directly led the people of Flying Cloud Pavilion up the stairs. Hu Ben, seeing this, followed closely.
"Boss, why do I feel like you're intentionally facilitating this deal?"
After the Flying Cloud Pavilion and Tiger King Sect people went upstairs, Yao Bao'er came to Ye Cangtian's side and asked in a low voice.
Ye Cangtian smiled faintly and replied, "The expert upstairs will definitely be at or above the Heavenly level. Do you think they are easy to deal with?"
In Ye Cangtian's view, if the Flying Cloud Pavilion was defeated, they would definitely ask him to act, and the final Qiankun bag would fall into his hands.
As a fallback, even if the Flying Cloud Pavilion defeated the lord of the manor, it wouldn't matter. The Flying Cloud Pavilion would likely suffer heavy losses.
In that case, the Tiger King Sect would likely reveal their true intentions.
"Boss, you're too cunning! I'm truly impressed!"
Listening to Ye Cangtian's explanation, Yao Bao'er gave him a thumbs-up and said with a smile.
Ye Cangtian snorted indifferently and said grumpily, "You can't blame me for this. They strongly requested the trade; I was just doing them a favor!"
"Heh, you're right."
Yao Bao'er rolled her eyes at Ye Cangtian and then directly walked upstairs.
On the other side, Ye Cangtian left Rose and the others behind, as Mount Tai was still undergoing inheritance and needed someone to protect him.
