NOVPUBTherefore, Su Changkong decided to quit while he was ahead. Noticing signs of overextending the Spirit Vein of Heavenly Dragon Cave Sky, he chose to stop.
50 drops of Mysterious Turtle True Essence, more than triple what he originally possessed, this gain was already enormously substantial!
Greed is the root of all misfortunes!
"It’s time to leave…"
Su Changkong took a deep breath. The Blade Soul, through the metamorphosis induced by the Transforming Dragon Gate, had refined Innate Qi to cultivate the Turtle Breath Technique, increasing the total amount of Mysterious Turtle True Essence. His strength had now reached the current limit attainable.
Staying any longer in the Heavenly Dragon Cave Sky had no further significance, and if he waited too long, the Ancestor of the Yan family might personally visit the Heavenly Dragon Cave Sky. He needed to leave!
"If they want to try and take my treasures, let them come…"
Su Changkong rose to his feet and headed towards the exit of the Heavenly Dragon Cave Sky. His eyes flickered with a cold glint. Mo Junling and the others were most likely still waiting outside, just for him to emerge. What Su Changkong could do was to kill! To exterminate all enemies who wished to seize the Transforming Dragon Gate!
Outside the Heavenly Dragon Cave Sky, inside Heavenly Dragon Mountain, at this moment, everyone was waiting, including the Heavenly Corpse Old Man, Ba Yi, Ba Chen, among others—who hadn’t left.
"Two months and Dao Wufeng still hasn’t come out?"
Yan Ru whispered, glancing at a shadowed area where Mo Junling sat cross-legged.
Not only Mo Junling, but a Heavenly Ship from the Heavenly God Imperial Dynasty hadn’t departed either. The Thirteenth Prince, the Gold-armored God General Gu Lie, they were all waiting—clearly aiming for the Transforming Dragon Gate, unwilling to give it up.
"Isn’t the Ancestor really going to make a move? That’s a Divine Artifact we’re talking about!"
Yan Zhong couldn’t help but communicate via sound transmission to Nie Wu, who was like an old farmer from the Silver Moon Empire. 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
A Divine Artifact, more valuable than a Divine Seed, and here in the Silver Moon Empire, the Ancestor of the Yan family was the absolute ruler. If he made his move, he could easily take the Transforming Dragon Gate into his possession; the others would not have the power to resist.
Nie Wu casually said, "As a Martial Saint who stands high above all, the Ancestor is not one to go back on his words like a petty character, maintaining steadfastness to one’s heart is of utmost importance to such beings."
Each Martial Saint was different in character. If it were a Martial Saint from the Demon Sect, they would act without any concern, slaughtering millions without remorse or guilt.
The Ancestor of the Yan family, however, was quite honorable and trustworthy. Once he gave his word, it was as if water thrown out—never taken back lightly. Otherwise, it would go against his very nature and only become a heart demon, hindering his path of cultivation!
"Of course… if Dao Wufeng willingly offered up the Transforming Dragon Gate to seek the Ancestor’s protection, that would be a different matter."
Nie Wu then smiled.
These words made both Yan Zhong’s and Yan Ru’s eyes light up.
Indeed, if Dao Wufeng voluntarily surrendered the Transforming Dragon Gate, it wouldn’t be considered betrayal!
Most people here were waiting for Dao Wufeng, to snatch his Transforming Dragon Gate, even to kill him.
Under such circumstances, voluntarily offering the Transforming Dragon Gate and seeking the protection of the Yan family, was indeed the smartest move!
As for Dao Wufeng being able to fend off powerful enemies? Not a chance.
Mo Junling, a descendant of a Martial Saint and a Demon Sect heavyweight, was among the very top in strength even among those with Innate abilities. There was no need to say more about Gu Lie; as a God General of the Heavenly God Imperial Dynasty, he had a not so small chance of becoming a Martial Saint in the future.
Any one of them was more than enough for Dao Wufeng to deal with, not to mention other powerhouses who also wanted a share of the spoils. Dao Wufeng was entirely alone, with no help—how could he clap with one hand?
"Buzz buzz!"
At this moment, at the center of Heavenly Dragon Mountain, the void twisted slightly, and a gateway emerged, which was the door to the Heavenly Dragon Cave Sky. It was gradually opening.
"He’s finally coming out!"
Simultaneously, everyone stood up, their gazes fixed intently on that door, their eyes revealed different motives, each harboring their own schemes.
Out from the doorway, clad in black robes with a saber at his waist, Su Changkong stepped out. He surveyed his surroundings and, seeing pairs of greedy eyes, said calmly, "It seems I’ve kept you all waiting…"
