#391 - And you said you didn't steal anyone!
"What?"
"Crap!"
Wang Shanlu was first stunned when he heard this, then he reacted.
Then he immediately quickened the movements in his hands and completely broke the restriction on the river mussel.
A flash of light was seen, and the river mussel shell opened wide on both sides, revealing a tree root inside.
There was a layer of water-like silver waves on the tree root.
In the water-patterned waves, there was a faint silver dragon.
He raised his hand and sent out a magic power, scattering the waves and the little dragon together.
At the moment the wave disappeared, the tree stump's size suddenly soared, and at the same time, a burst of exuberant spiritual energy erupted.
However, in the next instant, it was sealed again by Wang Shanlu with his own magic power.
"Interesting."
"It seems that Junior Brother Xu can't control his snake pet at all times."
Cheng Ji's movements were no slower than Wang Shanlu's.
He opened the selected river mussels in the same way, while secretly thinking in his heart.
His hands were also speeding up to refine a huge pearl in the mussel shell with magic power, dispersing the original divine sense imprint, resealing it, and putting it into his pocket.
He had to be quick!
These two are smart people.
They understood almost the moment Xu Chengxian spoke.
This Junior Brother Xu must have swallowed the river mussel into his belly and erased the divine sense imprint left on it by the White Dragon King Ao Sanqu.
So at this moment, Ao Sanqu must have sensed that a thief had entered his treasure house.
At this time, there was no more time to waste!
They must leave as soon as possible!
Even if Cheng Kong was one of them, knowing what they had done and participating in it, he would definitely say something to stop them for the sake of future cooperation.
"Damn it!"
"This stupid snake!"
Wang Shanlu became a little anxious.
He didn't want to reveal his whereabouts at this time.
This could easily lead to unnecessary speculation.
Most importantly, it could very likely arouse the vigilance of the White Dragon Clan of the South Sea!
But the treasure he chose was the main tree root of a ten-thousand-year-old spiritual wood.
It contained amazing spiritual energy, and the magic power required to seal it was conceivable.
He didn't want to expend too much magic power here in the first place, otherwise, he wouldn't have even asked Xu Chengxian to help him turn over the river mussel just now.
"Cheng Ji, do you think this snake can succeed?"
While he was busy collecting the treasure tree's large root, he did not forget to transmit a voice to Cheng Ji.
"I only feel fortunate," Cheng Ji replied.
Fortunately, he learned about this at this time.
If he waited until he entered the South Sea Little Dragon Palace and then discovered that this snake would cause a big problem, it would be too late for regrets.
"That's right," Wang Shanlu nodded.
He had to admit that Cheng Ji's words made sense.
The matter of stealing scriptures was extremely important to them, and they didn't want to give up halfway.
For a time, they couldn't find a more suitable helper than the Flower Snake.
Since this is the case, we must plan carefully.
Find out all possible oversights in advance and take precautions.
"I have to remind Junior Brother Xu that he must not let his Flower Snake make this mistake again!" Wang Shanlu thought to himself.
How could he possibly know that the one being stupid was Junior Brother Xu himself?
Xu Chengxian was currently in the treasure house, rushing in like a wild boar.
He wrapped all the river mussels nearby with blood energy and stuffed them into his mouth.
While stuffing them, he continued to look for the next place.
In the space of a breath, three or four river mussels had to be stuffed into his mouth.
In order to take away all the river mussels in the treasure house, he completely disregarded the consumption of blood energy.
This treasure house might only be visited once.
After loading so much, if he left a few behind, he would definitely think about it all the time, scratching his heart and wondering if there were incredible treasures hidden in the remaining river mussels!
After taking them back, if the treasures inside did not reach the expected value, regretting that he should not have taken the risk for this was one thing, but not taking them back was another.
The latter is more unbearable than the former.
Besides, the treasures that the White Dragon King can put in the treasure house must be more valuable than a little blood energy.
Since it's a sure profit without losing, why not rush?
Xu Chengxian knows how to calculate this account!
As for the fact that he caused this situation himself, it's not that he doesn't feel annoyed.
But after thinking about it, he felt relieved.
"After all, this is only the second time I've entered someone else's treasure house to 'take things'," Xu Chengxian thought to himself, "Mistakes are normal!"
The first time, he went straight to one target, took it and left.
This is different from this time.
This also shows that I don't have the talent for stealing things, I'm a good snake!
… … In fact, when he was refining the treasures in the river mussels, he sensed the existence of the White Dragon King's divine sense imprint.
But after a wave of blood energy washed over, they were all refined cleanly.
He didn't take it to heart.
This is the same as many ordinary people looking for things, clearly seeing them with their eyes, but not registering them in their brains.
But this is indeed not appropriate for a cultivator with a divine soul dharma form and a divine sense power so strong that he can instantly generate thousands of divine thoughts.
"Next time!"
"Next time, I will never make this mistake again!"
Xu Chengxian gritted his teeth and thought to himself.
However, his heart to empty this treasure house was too urgent.
This urgency caused his movements to almost produce afterimages.
Twenty breaths later.
He managed to catch up with Wang Shanlu and Cheng Ji, one after the other, and at the moment they put the things from their chosen river mussels into their storage magic tools, he simultaneously stuffed the last river mussel into his belly!
"Junior Brother Xu!" Wang Shanlu called out.
As he spoke, he completed the sealing of the ten-thousand-year-old spiritual wood root.
"Coming!" Xu Chengxian replied.
In the next breath, his figure flashed.
Then, with a tap of Wang Shanlu's finger, he put the re-sealed tree root into the storage bag at his waist, and when he raised his head again, he had already appeared in front of the other party.
"Huh?" Wang Shanlu was stunned, "So fast?"
"Yeah!" Xu Chengxian nodded, "Of course I have to be fast!"
"Senior Brother Cheng Ji?" He tilted his head and looked at Cheng Ji.
"I'm done too," Cheng Ji thought he was asking himself if he had taken the treasure.
"No," Xu Chengxian shook his head, "Do you two still want these mussel shells?"
"… …"
"… …"
… …
One breath later.
The two people and one flower snake left the treasure house.
Wang Shanlu and Cheng Ji waved their hands to disperse the two formation-breaking talismans in front of the treasure house door, and the opened portal also turned into countless light spots and dissipated in the dark water flow.
"Do you want us to see you off?" Wang Shanlu asked.
"There's no need, you go first," Xu Chengxian shook his head, "I'm going to meet up with the Eighth Prince."
Wang Shanlu and Cheng Ji looked at his snake body, which had returned to half a foot thick and ten feet long, and didn't say much.
They each left.
Xu Chengxian flicked his tail and quickly left the treasure house.
He approached the place with the most movement, and the next moment, he floated to the surface of the river.
Then he opened his mouth and spat out a ball of light.
The ball of light left the snake's mouth and instantly became larger, large enough to hold a person.
And inside, there really was a person—it was the lost Bai Chengyou.
It was also the Bai Chengyou that the Eighth Prince of the South Sea was looking for after smashing the Dragon Palace at the bottom of the river!
"Hehe!" Xu Chengxian smiled.
Since he wanted to frame someone, of course he had to make it look real.
This ball of light is also a treasure, it is a high-grade magic weapon, a water-avoiding pearl!
The Dragon Clan of the Four Seas all have this kind of magic weapon that can bring mortals to the bottom of the sea.
But this one just happens to have the mark of the White Dragon Clan!
"Alright, my part is finished!" He turned around and burrowed into the water-avoiding pearl, hiding in the sleeve of the unconscious Bai Chengyou.
As soon as he hid, a water column suddenly rushed out of the water.
Splash!
Ao Xingzhou has arrived.
When he saw the water-avoiding pearl floating on the river, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
Then he became furious and roared: "Good! Good White Dragon King! Good Ao Sanqu! You still say you didn't steal someone!"
