Chapter 383: 383
The people who had been expecting a simple robbery were suddenly stunned . They were experienced and knew that the inscription that Xue Wei had thrown out was meant to lock space and make it impossible for one to escape and enter the area for approximately as long as it took for an incense stick to burn .
The people who had planned the robbery were filled with despair . They hoped that they could last long enough for one or two of them to escape, but it was a naive thought .
Their resistance was futile, and their hearts were filled with despair . Where birds died for food, man died for treasure . Although they were aware that it was risky to rob another group, they still did it, and the result was very different from what they had expected .
As the billowing of energies ceased, the corpses were strewn across the ground . This time they had lost no one . However, a few had a varying degree of injuries .
It was still a short while before the space inscriptions would lift, and Xue Wei went out to share the medication he had, while he ordered the healthy to gather the spoils .
Not long after the two leaders met and split it up, although they were not one group, the share was not causing anyone to feel cheated, they were both satisfied with how it was shared, and both Xue Wei and the other guy began sharing it with their people .
Soon all the treasures had been split . The people who had tried to rob them had encountered a stroke of quite amazing luck throughout their time in the Ascended's Realm, and now this fortunate luck belonged to Xue Wei and the others .
"Guys, I think it will be best for us to find a place to settle down now," Xue Wei said with a sigh to the others . "We have already gotten a lot of treasures, and everyone should have arrived in Summer . If we continue to move on like this, we will, at some point, lose our luck and become the corpses that are lying on the ground, never to leave the realm again," Xue Wei said .
The person who was listening in stopped in his tracks and looked at Xue Wei .
"Do you know why everyone is heading for Summer?" he asked, clearly aware of something that Xue Wei did not know, but due to the fact that Xue Wei had saved his life, he decided to share the news with him .
"Isn't it because the treasures here are more numerous?" Xue Wei frowned .
"Well yes and no," the other leader said . "There is a mansion hidden within the depths of Summer . It is said to be the residence of the entity that built the realm .
He should have made two residences within the realm, one is underground, and one is above ground .
Xue Wei paused . He had already taken every treasure that was within the underground palace, but if there was one with as many treasures, should he not try and get them too?
However, if everyone were heading for it, the danger would be immense . With their small group, they stood no chance .
"Why don't we take a month to strengthen ourselves . If our team manages to take a qualitative leap upwards, then we will head for the manor, but if we cannot a breakthrough, then it is fate telling us to be satisfied with what we have . "
The treasures did not blind Xue Wei . Although he wanted them, he was not in a rush to take them at all costs .
One had to remember that the realm had been open so many times, but the manor was still there, untouched . It proved that it was in no way a simple thing to go there and get their hands on the treasures .
"Can you tell me some more about this manor?" Xue Wei asked .
Considering they had saved their lives, the leader was not stingy with his words as he nodded his head .
"The manor is known as the Blue Phoenix Manor . As to whether or not it was set up by the same guy who sat up, the realm is unsure, but it was an expert who lived here for some time .
"The manor is currently being protected by various inscriptions and beasts .
"The inscriptions has been faltering the last many times that the realm has been open, and it should collapse this time .
"As to what is inside the manor, no one knows with certainty, but it is a place where danger and chances lurk around every corner . "
Xue Wei was silent for some time . A Blue Phoenix? They were immensely rare . But this realm was created by a Vermilion Bird . Could the blue phoenix that had made the manor be a descendant?
"Well, let us see how much strength we can gain in the next month's time," Xue Wei said finally with a sigh . "If we can't even guarantee our own lives, then it is stupid to dream about it . "
"Can we stay with you?" The other leader asked . He felt that working with Xue Wei would be a much better solution than going alone .
Considering it for some time, Xue Wei nodded his head . It would be beneficial to have a bigger team . And although there was no trust between the two of them, they had worked well together up until now .
Although they were teaming up, Xue Wei did not trust them . It was the same with the people from the Vermilion Bird Clan and a few of the people from the Chang'an continent .
They had been brought together because of profits, not because of loyalty .
Seeing that the inscription was tuning into nothingness, Xue Wei took out a vessel, and all of them boarded it before it sped off into the distance .
