Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws Chapter 232 The Yun Xiao Troop, The Rumored Lou Kingdoms Treasure

Chapter 232: The Yun Xiao Troop, The Rumored Lou Kingdom’s Treasure
“Brother Chu, I know I can’t talk you out of this, but I should still remind you that the Core Area of the Ancient Battlefield is an extremely terrifying area where even the Sages fear to go. Please, Brother Chu, I hope you’ll consider my advice.”
“Alright, I understand.”
Chu Kuangren nodded gently.
After that, he looked at Leng Changkong’s sword and chuckled. “Brother Leng, can you hand over that sword in your hand?”
Although Leng Changkong was confused, he still took out his sword.
Chu Kuangren then took that sword and made a sword hand sign before he gently traced it over that blade, imbuing a surge of his Daoist Rhyme and sword qi within the sword.
“This sword now contains a trace of my sword qi. Brother Leng, if you encounter any dangers on your journey back, please activate it and save everyone.” Chu Kuangren smiled.
“Many thanks,” Brother Leng replied solemnly.
Both parties then left separately.
Along with Lan Yu, Chu Kuangren headed towards the Inner Zone and explored its depths.
With his Treasure Locating Skill, Chu Kuangren found quite a few treasures on the Ancient Battlefield. Although most of them were in a bad condition, taking them back to Black Heaven Sect and handing them over to Elder Ruyan for their disposal would serve as another valuable source of income as well.
These items could then be used as the sect’s daily expenses.
…
“Not bad, a broken Sage weapon. Selling this will gain us around a million and eight hundred thousand Top-tier soulstones I suppose.”
Chu Kuangren said as he held a broken armor in his hand.
He had just taken that armor from a skeleton.
That skeleton had been dead for many years, but its bones were still incredibly rigid and tough, and it glowed with a tint of gold and iron color. It was a sign that the skeleton used to be a prominent figure during its lifetime.
It had the cultivation of an Honorable Supreme at least.
Seeing that even an Honorable Supreme had perished here, one could only imagine the number of violent wars that the Ancient Battlefield had gone through during all these years.
If the Inner Zone was as such, let alone the Core Area.
Chu Kuangren kept the broken armor inside his Yin and Yang ring and was just about to leave.
However, a violent burst of Daoist Rhyme suddenly erupted and was attacking them from not far away. Chu Kuangren frowned, and before he could even do anything, Lan Yu had already dispersed that surge of Daoist Rhyme.
Her cold gaze shot into the void as she yelled, “Reveal yourself!”
A circle of ripples then appeared in the void.
A man clad in black leather armor with a scar on his face looked at both of them and chuckled. “That’s quite some strength you have there.”
“Killing and pillaging the treasures of others?”
Chu Kuangren suddenly looked interested.
Although the matter of killing and pillaging were not uncommon in the world of cultivation, that was Chu Kuangren’s first time encountering such a thing.
“Boy, hand over the broken Sage weapon to me, and I might consider sparing your life. Otherwise…”
“Otherwise what?”
Without waiting for the man with a scar on his face to finish his sentence, Chu Kuangren interrupted him and said, “You’re going to kill me until there’s nothing left, or until I wish I was never born?”
Scarface’s brows furrowed, and as he looked at the calm Chu Kuangren, his heart could not help but beat violently. ‘There’s something weird about this boy!’
He then glanced at Lan Yu.
Seeing that the young lady easily broke through his attack, it was obvious that her strength should not be underestimated. Besides, there was also a Chu Kuangren, whose strength was still unknown to him.
If a fight were to start, it might not end well for him.
He thought about it carefully, going through it over and over again in his mind before Scarface grunted. He then turned his head and ran away towards the distance without saying anything.
Both Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu were slightly taken aback.
‘That’s it?’
“What the hell did he want? He left just like that?”
Chu Kuangren wondered.
It turned out different than what he expected.
Lan Yu shook her head as well. “Beats me.”
“Alright, forget about him. Let’s carry on.”
…
Scarface kept on running before he eventually came across a troop of people.
There were many people in that troop, and each of them possessed a fierce temperament as well — a sign that they were not ordinary people.
If someone from Sunsoil City was there, they would surely recognize that troop.
That troop was one of the most elite ones in Sunsoil City as their captain was a top-tier swordsman, ranked tenth in the Hundred Sword Spectrum.
That group was known as the Yun Xiao Troop!
“What’s the matter, Old Seventh?” Seeing how Scarface rushed back, a spear-wielding cultivator asked.
Scarface replied, “Fourth Brother, get a few strong cultivators to follow me. We’re going to find two people who have a broken Sage weapon in their possession.”
“Huh? Broken Sage weapon?”
Fourth Brother’s eyes lit up with excitement.
A broken Sage weapon was a valuable treasure indeed.
“How strong are those two?”
“I don’t know.” Scarface shook his head.
Fourth Brother almost spew blood upon hearing that. He then glared at Scarface with disbelief, as if he thought Scarface was messing with him. “What’s the point of coming back if you don’t even know how powerful they are?”
Scarface continued, “Although we didn’t fight, I have a feeling that those two are very powerful. I alone will not be a match for both of them, hence I’ve come back to seek help from you, hoping that we can go and steal their items together.”
Fourth Brother’s face turned grim at Scarface’s words.
Having lived a life of looting and pillaging in the Ancient Battlefield for so many years, all of them had long developed a keen sense of danger.
Since Scarface had put it that way, it meant that the other party was probably not to be trifled with. However, a broken Sage weapon was very tempting indeed.
“Old Seventh, since you’ve returned, let’s continue our journey.”
At that moment, Li Xiaoyun, the Yun Xiao Troop leader, ranked ninth in the Hundred Sword Spectrum, walked over and said lightly.
Both Scarface and Fourth Brother glanced at each other when they heard his words.
They then told him about the broken Sage weapon.
Li Xiaoyun frowned slightly as he replied, “Forget about it, it’s just a broken Sage weapon. We should complete our employer’s job for now.”
He glanced at the young man behind him.
The young man was sitting on a rock with his eyes slightly closed. Although he did not seem powerful, everyone looked at him with fear in their eyes.
Even Li Yunxian was very cautious and fearful of that person.
This was because the young man was one of the top sky-prides in the world, the Shang clan’s Young Emperor of the Scarlet Phoenix Domain… Shang Han!
Shang Han slowly opened his eyes and said towards Li Xiaoyun who was nearby, “Can we continue our journey now?”
“Yes, of course.”
Li Xiaoyun nodded and then asked, “We’ve been searching for seven days now. Young Emperor, are you sure this is the correct direction?”
“There’s no mistake.”
Shang Han took out an ancient bronze short sword. “I can clearly feel that the resonance between the Lou clan’s ancient sword and that Ancient Lou Kingdom is getting increasingly stronger. We can surely find the ancient city in this direction!”
Everyone’s eyes lit up with excitement.
The Lou Kingdom was a dynasty that once existed tens of thousands of years ago. It was said that the strength and foundation of that kingdom were far greater than that of the Royal Azure Dynasty today.
However, such a kingdom was instantly destroyed in a great battle tens of thousands of years ago. The capital city of that dynasty had since been buried in the sand among the strong winds and sandstorms.
People had been searching for the Ancient Lou Kingdom for many years, hoping to find its treasure that was rumored to be even more terrifying than the sage orthodoxies.
The only thing was that no one had succeeded as of now.
However, that troop might succeed this time.
Even an Honorable Supreme like Li Xiaoyun was already extremely excited at that thought, let alone the rest of the team.
“If I can get my hands on the Lou Kingdom’s treasures, I’ll never have to worry about anything else for the rest of my life. Haha, I will leave here once and for all when the time comes.”
“Tsk tsk, I bet just the Lou Kingdom’s treasures alone will contain a vast supply of resources like supreme weapons and supreme elixirs as well.”
“No one has managed to find it for so many years. In the end, it was us from the Yun Xiao Troop that succeeded…”
Shang Han glanced at the team members and grinned. After all, those people were just a tool for him to find the treasures.
Yet they still dared to think about sharing the riches with him? What a joke!
“As long as I get that item from the Lou Kingdom, who else can ever go against me among the younger generation?!”
“Even if it’s Chu Kuangren, I can still fight and compete against him!”
