Chapter 2525

Watching another Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredient vanish on the spot, everyone present was completely dumbfounded.

Originally there were seven Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients, now only five remain.

And the remaining three Heavenly Officials, seeing the other two act like that, were also startled, and hurriedly came to their senses.

Good fellow, if we don't act now, the ingredients will be gone.

Immediately, the three also didn't care about anything else, and immediately wanted to move to seize the ingredients.

And that Immortal Ancestor realm expert also immediately noticed the change in the three, and hastily shouted.

"Sir, wait a moment."

Unfortunately, those three Heavenly Officials didn't hear what he said at all, without the slightest hesitation, they swung their blades and directly took the remaining three Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients into their bags.

Afterwards, each acted as if nothing had happened, turning their heads, feigning suspicion as they looked at him and said.

"What did you just say?"

"Yeah, what 'wait'? I haven't done anything."

"I can't even understand what you're saying."

"Huh???"

He was so angry his body trembled uncontrollably; he had never seen such shameless people, and they were one more shameless than the next.

Zhao Lao was already outrageous enough; with so many Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients, he alone took more than half.

Originally only seven ingredients were given, and everyone already felt extremely aggrieved.

But unexpectedly, after Zhao Lao left, the five Heavenly Officials went even further—without stopping, each took another Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredient.

Moreover, this series of actions took place openly under the bright sky, in broad daylight, before everyone's eyes.

Everyone saw it, yet they could still keep a straight face and lie without blushing at all.

Dark, these big shots' hearts are truly dark.

So, originally there were eighteen Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients, and in the end only two were left for everyone else?

That Immortal Venerable realm expert was completely dumbfounded, and finally truly experienced the darkness of this world.

He muttered, having served diligently in the Heavenly Palace for so many years, how come he hadn't gotten much good stuff? It seems he must have been swallowed by these damned things before.

Facing the Immortal Venerable expert's stunned gaze, the five Heavenly Officials, having achieved their goal, didn't linger any longer.

Likewise, they muttered to themselves as they left the deck and returned to their own Heavenly Outside Immortal Vessel.

"Sigh, only two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients—never mind, I won't argue with you; you guys figure out how to split them yourselves."

"Not bad—since we're Heavenly Officials, we take the danger and leave the benefits for our brothers."

"You guys divide them."

Saying that, the five departed, leaving only the crowd on the deck, who remained silent for a long time.

They waited until the Immortal Venerable expert came to his senses, looking at the remaining two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients, and he also made up his mind.

"I'll take these two ingredients for now; when I find a chance I'll have Young Master Ye prepare them, so everyone on our Immortal Vessel gets a share. As for those on the other Immortal Vessels…"

While speaking, the Immortal Ancestor realm expert's gaze slowly swept over the crowd on the deck.

The quick-witted ones soon reacted and took up the conversation.

"Sir, there was no attack today."

"Right, right, and there were certainly no ingredients showing up; we didn't see any."

"Exactly, which bastard is spouting nonsense and giving false military reports?"

Hearing the crowd's words, the Immortal Ancestor realm expert finally nodded in satisfaction.

There was no choice; he was forced to do this, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to keep those remaining two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients.

By then they wouldn't even have a sip of broth.

The people present also understood this reasoning, so they all spoke up in agreement.

They swallowed their other grievances, but they would drink that broth no matter what.

As for sharing it with people on the other Immortal Vessels, that's absolutely impossible—there are over thirty vessels' worth of people; if we divided it, we wouldn't even get a bite, and by then we might not even be able to smell it properly.

The final two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients were then collected.

And just then, other Immortal Vessels arrived one after another, and immediately several people leapt onto the deck.

With excited faces, they said.

"Where are the ingredients? The Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients that were just delivered?"

"Yeah, my mouth's been bland as bird feed these past two days—I need a good meal."

"Did you collect those Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients?"

The people on the other Immortal Vessels had apparently also received the news of the earlier Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon attack.

Upon learning that the ingredients had come to them on their own, they were thrilled, thinking they could finally enjoy some meat again.

Even if the amount is small, it's still good for a tooth‑sacrifice—better than having nothing show up at all.

So, having just arrived, they couldn't wait to jump onto the deck, wanting to see where the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients were.

But as they spoke, their eyes scanned the deck and they didn't see a single Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredient.

"What about the ingredients? Weren't we supposed to have encountered an ingredient attack?"

Faced with these people's doubtful questions, the Immortal Ancestor realm expert of this Immortal Vessel replied in a bewildered manner.

"What attack? We haven't encountered any attack from start to finish—where did you hear that news?"

"No attack?"

As soon as those words were spoken, the people who had just leapt onto the deck were instantly dumbfounded, standing there stunned.

"No, you yourselves sent the message saying you'd encountered an Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredient attack, and you even requested reinforcements, didn't you?"

"How could there possibly be no attack?"

Someone frowned and spoke.

"You old fool, you sent the distress call yourselves, forgot?"

"Did we send it? We didn't send anything."

Upon hearing this, the Immortal Ancestor realm expert shook his head, looking like he had no idea what attack, you guys are the ones gone crazy.

And the others present, upon hearing this, also chimed in agreement.

"Yeah, we haven't encountered any attack."

"Along this journey it's been calm, we haven't even seen a living thing, where would an attack come from?"

"Seniors, what are you talking about, when were we attacked?"

"Huh???"

Faced with everyone saying that, even these people themselves became doubtful, feeling somewhat lacking confidence.

Could it really be no attack? Did they misremember? Impossible, we just clearly heard the news.

They said the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients actively came to our door, how could it be wrong?

For a moment, these people all frowned, looking toward the crowd on the deck, as if trying to discern something from their reactions.

However, in order to preserve these last two Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon ingredients, the people on the deck each gave their all.

They all brought out their best acting skills of their lives.

So, facing the scrutiny of these people's gazes, the crowd's eyes held only deep doubt and incomprehension.

Really just a look of 'what are you saying, I can't understand at all'.

Now, it made them even less confident, could it be an illusion?

But that shouldn't be, I'm already an Immortal Ancestor realm expert, could I still have hallucinations? You're not joking, are you.
