Chapter 306

Following the conclusion of the Mountain and River Secret Realm, the news that the Mountain and River Seal had been snatched away by a person in black quickly spread throughout the entire Nine Provinces.

People everywhere were discussing the identity of the mysterious person.

They often used the fact that Li Shimin had allowed the Heaven and Earth treasure, the Mountain and River Seal, to be taken away by someone else within the Great Tang borders as a topic of conversation after drinking.

After this Mountain and River Seal incident, people discovered that the items capable of appearing on the Heaven List were not all owned by someone, and many people and factions began to fantasize that if they could obtain a treasure on the Heaven List, they would surely soar to the clouds from then on and become one of the overlords overlooking the Nine Provinces.

Consequently, the Nine Provinces were now stirred up again with speculation about what the next divine weapons on the Divine Weapon List would be.

Whether they would be items already owned or if they could be obtained by a fated person just like the Mountain and River Seal.

"What treasure do you think will be on the Divine Weapon List next?"

"And in which country will it appear?"

Inside an inn, a young boy of about ten years old opened his large eyes and asked the burly men at the wine table.

Before anyone could answer, a woman wearing an apron appeared behind the boy.

The woman extended her right hand, grabbed the boy's ear fiercely, and said loudly:

"You little monkey, what Divine Weapon List, what does it have to do with you? Hurry up and go serve the other guests!"

"Ouch, ouch, it hurts, Auntie, do you know that you are currently pulling the ear of a generation's great hero?!"

"Be careful or I'll poke you with my 30 Mad Demon Sword Art!"

The woman wearing the apron increased the force of her grip on his ear after hearing the words of this little monkey.

"Ouch, it's going to fall off, it's going to fall off."

"Auntie, I was wrong, I'll go serve the dishes right now, please let go!"

After the little boy pretended to be in great pain, the woman indeed let go of her hand.

Seeing his scheme succeed, the little boy immediately rolled on the ground to put some distance between himself and the woman, made a face at her, and childishly muttered:

"This hero will definitely take revenge!"

Then he went off to serve dishes to the guests in a well-behaved manner.

The woman wearing the apron saw the little boy acting so silly and touched her forehead lightly before going back to her own work.

And the group of Jianghu heroes at the wine table where the little boy had just been could not help but burst into loud laughter upon seeing this scene.

"However, who do you think that black-clad person who snatched the Mountain and River Seal really is? To be able to successfully take the supreme treasure from so many experts."

"I heard that Li Shimin of Great Tang is furious, and Yuan Tiangang has also dispatched all the Bad Ren to search for the traces of the Mountain and River Seal."

"Is this something you should be concerned about? Hurry up and drink, drink!"

"With your three-legged cat kung fu, why are you thinking about this? You'd be better off finding a way to enter some sect and become an outer disciple!"

"That's true, that's true, haha, drink!"

At this moment, scenes like this were everywhere in the Nine Provinces.

Great Tang, Chang'an.

After Li Shimin heard Yuan Tiangang say that the Mountain and River Seal had been snatched away by a mysterious person, the fire of anger in his heart could not be controlled and began to burn outward.

He lowered his head, trying his best to control his emotions, but his face was still extremely ferocious, especially his eyes.

At this moment, he was like an evil ghost from hell, ready to choose someone to devour.

After a short while, once Li Shimin was able to control his facial expressions, he looked up at Yuan Tiangang, cracked a very forced smile at the corner of his mouth, and said:

"Yuan Shi, have the Bad Ren found the whereabouts of the person who snatched the Mountain and River Seal?"

"Have you discovered the identity of this person?"

Although Li Shimin considered himself to have controlled his emotions well, his right hand gripping the corner of the table was trembling, and the corner of the table he was holding had even been scratched with faint marks.

Although Yuan Tiangang knew that Li Shimin was extremely angry at this moment, he still chose to tell Li Shimin his intelligence truthfully.

Yuan Tiangang looked at Li Shimin's face and shook his head, saying:

"Since I entered the world, I have never seen this person."

"Furthermore, during this period, I have dispatched all my subordinates in the Bad Ren to search for the traces of this person, but I have also gained nothing."

Hearing that there were still no traces of the black-robed person, Li Shimin widened his eyes, grabbed Yuan Tiangang's hands, and asked very urgently:

"Could it be someone from Great Sui?"

"Could it be someone from Li Jiancheng's side?"

The reason Li Shimin would reveal such an ugly state was because he was truly afraid.

He was too afraid that Great Sui or Li Jiancheng would obtain the Mountain and River Seal.

Because if these two factions were allowed to obtain the Mountain and River Seal, it would completely threaten Great Tang.

Actually, saying it threatened Great Tang is not as accurate as saying that if Great Sui or Li Jiancheng obtained the Mountain and River Seal, his, Li Shimin's, status would be threatened.

At this moment, Li Shimin was afraid.

Seeing that Li Shimin's state of mind had developed a problem, Yuan Tiangang gripped Li Shimin's hands tightly and silently transmitted strands of gentle power to Li Shimin through his hands to help him calm down.

Subsequently, Yuan Tiangang shook his head and spoke with great certainty:

"Your Majesty, the black-robed person who obtained the Mountain and River Seal is absolutely not a faction from Great Sui or a faction from Li Jiancheng's side."

"On this point, I dare to stake my life!"

"After these years of the Bad Ren infiltrating Great Sui."

"I know the factions of Great Sui like the back of my hand; this person absolutely did not come from Great Sui."

"As for Li Jiancheng's side, it is even more impossible."

"Although it was said that the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Sect helped Li Jiancheng and saved him at a critical moment."

"But the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Sect has always been very mysterious and would absolutely not expose its whereabouts for the sake of a Li Jiancheng!"

After Yuan Tiangang's internal power soothing and verbal affirmation, Li Shimin finally felt slightly relieved.

"As long as it is not a faction from Great Sui or Li Jiancheng, that is fine."

Li Shimin thought to himself.

Subsequently, Li Shimin sighed deeply.

"It is I who failed to control my emotions, making a fool of myself in front of Yuan Shi."

Li Shimin said with great regret:

"Such a supreme treasure of heaven and earth, a supreme treasure that can lock the national destiny! It was originally within the borders of Great Tang."

"It is truly a pity to have missed such a good opportunity in vain."

"Yuan Shi, although this treasure has now been snatched away by someone, the Mountain and River Seal is truly beneficial to our Great Tang."

"Please, Yuan Shi, you must do your utmost to search for the whereabouts of the Mountain and River Seal."
