Chapter 1421: Scavenging for Treasures

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, the expressions of Lianyin, Jiayue, and Lie Kong all became grave.

Even Mingchen was no exception.

Although he was very unconvinced by Tianyu's luck, he had to admit that Tianyu's current strength was significantly greater than his own.

Since even Tianyu felt such emotion, it meant that the strength of Shan Qingqing and the others was certainly not trivial.

"They have arrived."

Just at this moment, Tianyu's voice entered their ears once again.

They subconsciously looked up.

In the distant sky, eleven faint, flickering figures were rapidly approaching, and the eleven people, who had been very blurry, were quickly becoming clear.

Among these eleven cultivators, there were a full eight Great Clan Prodigy-level Talents.

Although the remaining three were not Great Clan Prodigy-level Talents, their cultivation had all reached the Integration Stage Perfection level.

"How shall we fight?"

"Should we activate the Array to exhaust them first, or strike first to exhaust them, and then use the Array to defeat them?"

Lie Kong subconsciously looked toward Wang Jianqiang, revealing a look of consultation.

Throughout the journey, Wang Jianqiang's performance had completely conquered him.

Of course.

The main reason was that he had already seen clearly that Jiayue was very convinced by Tianyu, and even if he asked Jiayue, Jiayue would still consult Tianyu for his opinion.

Hearing Lie Kong's inquiry, Wang Jianqiang smiled, "The Array is for emergencies; although the strength of Shan Qingqing's team is quite good, it is not yet enough to make us directly expose the Array."

"Does Daoist Friend Tianyu mean... to strike out directly?"

Lie Kong's expression shifted.

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "Wait a moment, listen to my command."

Lie Kong was startled and nodded.

While the two were speaking, the eleven figures had already arrived outside the entrance of Xuan Valley.

The very moment the eleven people landed on the ground.

Wang Jianqiang pointed his finger, and a streak of Spirit Light suddenly submerged into the void.

The next moment.

A layer of light curtain suddenly emerged, shrouding the entire entrance of Xuan Valley.

Shan Qingqing and the others were greatly alarmed.

"Charge!"

At the same time, Wang Jianqiang gave a low shout and was the first to rush out of the Concealment Array.

Seeing this, the others followed without hesitation.

Before Shan Qingqing and the others could recover from the shock of the Array's sudden appearance, six figures suddenly flew out from the void in front of them.

Like six streaks of light, they instantly charged into the ranks of Shan Qingqing's team.

"Careful!"

"Enemy attack!"

Shan Qingqing was shocked and hurriedly spoke to warn them.

But clearly.

Her warning was still a bit too late.

Wang Jianqiang, Lianyin, Jiayue, Biyan'er, Lie Kong, and Mingchen had already discussed their strategy; after charging into Shan Qingqing's team, they immediately dispersed, each attacking one person.

Under such a surprise offensive, Wang Jianqiang, Jiayue, Lianyin, and Biyan'er were like tigers entering a flock of sheep.

The four Great Clan Prodigy-level Talents they targeted were directly heavily injured and fell to the ground like meteors.

Instantly losing the power to resist.

Although Mingchen and Lie Kong were the two weakest among Wang Jianqiang's group.

They were only weaker than Wang Jianqiang, Lianyin, Jiayue, and Biyan'er; compared to ordinary Great Clan Prodigies, the two were not only not weak, but actually quite powerful.

Coupled with the advantage of a sneak attack.

The two Great Clan Prodigy-level Talents they targeted, while not directly crushed like the targets of Wang Jianqiang's group of four, still suffered significant injuries, their strength greatly diminished.

"Biyan'er, it's you!"

Only then did Shan Qingqing clearly see the appearance of the enemies.

A look of shock and anger appeared on her face, and she charged straight at Biyan'er.

Biyan'er's expression remained unchanged; with a wave of her palm, the Ninth Generation Clan Leader's clam shell appeared, transforming into a Curved Blade, and slashed toward the attacking Shan Qingqing.

Shan Qingqing was already inferior to Biyan'er, and now Biyan'er had the Ninth Generation Clan Leader's clam shell in hand.

In a short moment, she was heavily injured by Biyan'er and fell to the ground, unable to rise.

At the same time.

Wang Jianqiang, Lianyin, and Jiayue had already swept away the remaining people like a gale scattering clouds, heavily injuring them all.

Not long after Wang Jianqiang, Lianyin, and Jiayue finished off their respective enemies.

The opponents of Lie Kong and Mingchen also lost their combat effectiveness under the two's fierce attacks and fell toward the ground.

Seeing that their side had won completely, Biyan'er breathed a sigh of relief.

Her figure flashed, appearing before the fallen Shan Qingqing, and she pointed a finger.

The Curved Blade transformed from the clam shell pressed against Shan Qingqing, "Admit defeat immediately and leave the Secret Realm, otherwise, die!"

The prodigies of various clans were of great importance, so they could not easily kill them directly.

But a Saintess Candidate was different.

Once a Saintess Candidate fails, there are only two paths: one is to die within the Secret Realm, and the other is to concede and become a slave to the final Saintess.

In other words.

Biyan'er is capable of killing Shan Qingqing.

Shan Qingqing is naturally also aware of this point.

Death, or becoming a subordinate under the Saintess!

After her expression shifted for a moment, she ultimately sighed in dejection and chose the latter.

She took out the Secret Realm Key, preparing to inject Spiritual Power into it to teleport out of the Secret Realm.

"Wait~"

A voice suddenly came.

The next moment, Shan Qingqing felt her hand lighten; the Secret Realm Key had already been snatched away by someone.

Shan Qingqing was startled and looked at the Mermaid Clan youth who had suddenly appeared before her, frowning as she said, "What else does Daoist Friend want?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Why, as the defeated party, do you not even have the self-awareness of a loser?"

A look of bewilderment appeared on Shan Qingqing's face.

Wang Jianqiang sighed, "Since that is the case, then Tianyu can only offend you."

Having said that, Wang Jianqiang stepped forward.

A round of searching.

He found a Space Ring and several pieces of Jewelry-type Magical Treasure on Shan Qingqing, then put them away with satisfaction.

"You!"

"You shameless scoundrel!"

Shan Qingqing was suppressed by Wang Jianqiang the entire time and unable to resist, so she could only glare at Wang Jianqiang in a mix of shame and anger.

Wang Jianqiang frowned, "Fairy, you and I are enemies; do you expect me to treat you with courtesy? Ask yourself, if you were the victor, could you do it?"

Shan Qingqing was stunned; she opened her mouth but could not say a word.

Originally, seeing Tianyu's actions that did not fit his persona, Biyan'er had already opened her mouth wide, but upon hearing Tianyu's subsequent words.

A sudden realization dawned in her heart.

That's right.

It is true that Daoist Friend Tianyu is upright, sincere, and kind, but that does not mean he is a fool.

When treating enemies, one must have the attitude one treats enemies with.

Seeing Shan Qingqing speechless, Wang Jianqiang sneered and looked at the others.

Sensing Wang Jianqiang's gaze,

Everyone's heart trembled, and then they all gritted their teeth, glaring angrily at Wang Jianqiang.

What they carried on them was their accumulation of many years; how could it not be precious?

How could they be willing to hand it over so easily?

Seeing this, Wang Jianqiang sighed and walked toward two female cultivators with outstanding temperaments that fit Human Race aesthetics, searched them, and then looked at a stout female cultivator with a crooked mouth and squinted eyes.

He frowned and said coldly, "You, take out all your treasures."

The stout female cultivator turned her head to the side.

She snorted coldly, acting very tough.

She appeared as if she did not take Wang Jianqiang seriously at all.

A fierce look flashed in Wang Jianqiang's eyes, and he struck out with a palm.

The stout female cultivator was instantly torn to pieces, and her Nascent Soul did not even have time to escape before it shattered.

Wang Jianqiang beckoned with his palm.

A ring and several accessories flew out from the splashing flesh and blood, landing in his palm.

He backhanded the treasures away and looked coldly at the remaining male cultivators, "Everyone, hand over the treasures on your bodies; if anyone else disobeys, they will end up like this person!"
