Chapter 27

The moment he struck, it was a fierce killing move.

Ye Xuan's face darkened: "What a fine Demon Sect Saintess. Master, help me."

The next second, Ling Zunzhe's soul possessed his body, his strength surged, and he began to clash with Duanmu Xin.

Before long, Duanmu Xin fell into a disadvantage.

Just as Ye Xuan was about to send Duanmu Xin flying with a palm strike, a silver needle flew over.

Ye Xuan's pupils shrank slightly, and he dodged with a flash of his body.

Taking advantage of that moment, Duanmu Xin hurriedly fled.

Ye Xuan snorted coldly: "Who is it?"

He had just wanted to forcibly subdue Duanmu Xin, but unfortunately someone had interrupted.

A few seconds later, no one responded.

He was about to pick the Wind Chime Grass, then discovered with a dumbfounded face that the Wind Chime Grass was gone.

"Damn it!"

At this moment, Ye Xuan couldn't help but curse.

For some reason, he hadn't found a single Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure along the entire way.

It was truly absurd!

Now seeing this Wind Chime Grass, it had actually been snatched away by someone too.

It was simply baffling.

Damn it, who the hell did this!!!

……

PS: 8 updates!!! Exhausted to death, begging for data!!!

Ye Xuan's face was terribly ugly: "Master, didn't you say the surroundings were full of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures?"

Ling Zunzhe frowned: "Earlier my Divine Sense clearly sensed them. The Wind Chime Grass was only one of them."

Ye Xuan gritted his teeth: "Could it be that someone knew of the Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures in advance and took them first?"

Ling Zunzhe agreed: "That possibility can't be ruled out."

Ye Xuan said dejectedly: "If I have no Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures, how can I advance quickly?"

Ling Zunzhe said: "Don't panic. If there are none on the outer perimeter, then enter the inner perimeter. Though you may have to suffer a bit."

Ye Xuan's face darkened: "What's a little suffering? I'm going in. I must grow stronger and beat Xu Chen senseless."

At this moment, Xu Chen was almost becoming his inner demon. He had to suppress Xu Chen from now on, otherwise this knot in his heart would be hard to untie.

"Then let's go."

Ling Zunzhe said lightly.

"Whoosh!"

After speaking, Ye Xuan shot out like an arrow, heading straight for the inner perimeter.

……

"The inner perimeter does have good stuff, it's just that…"

Seeing this scene, Xu Chen shrugged and said.

The inner perimeter was extremely dangerous; one could encounter a Sixth Grade spirit beast at any time.

When that time came, even Ling Zunzhe without a physical body might run into trouble.

"Speaking of which, in his previous life Ye Xuan found Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures as easily as drinking water. Now the plot is a bit off."

"I don't know who's causing trouble in this life, but it actually made Ye Xuan not get a single Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure. Absurd."

Xu Chen said with a headache.

This was making him feel an impulse to send Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures to Ye Xuan, just to stabilize the plot.

After thinking for a moment, Xu Chen continued to wander around leisurely, continuing to dig for treasures.

During this time, Xu Chen also got three Yaoshou Hehe in hand, and his Storage Ring was already full of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures.

Every single one was no lower than Third Grade, about thirty-four plants in total, worth at least three hundred thousand taels.

Although it felt great, Xu Chen still had some worries.

After all, the protagonist had no good stuff, yet he as the villain was loaded. Nothing would go wrong, right?

"System, is there no problem with me doing this?"

Xu Chen inquired.

The System said: "No problem. As long as the host doesn't actively snatch the protagonist's fortune or belongings, it seems there's no problem."

Seems?

Go to hell!

He continued: "What if I beat the protagonist up once? Still no problem?"

The System responded: "As long as you don't actively beat him up, there should be no problem."

Xu Chen: "???"

Come on, come on, tell me, how do I beat up an enemy without being active about it?

He said irritably: "If I see Ye Xuan later, I just won't fight back."

The next second after speaking, Xu Chen froze.

He saw Ye Xuan, covered in bruises, walking out from the inner perimeter, killing intent in his eyes.

The instant he saw Xu Chen, a ghastly white smile crept onto Ye Xuan's lips: "Xu Chen!"

Xu Chen inwardly thought, good, finally meeting up according to the plot.

Mimicking a villain's tone, he sneered, "Idiot, you've entered the inner perimeter?"

Ye Xuan said coldly, "Too bad I'm not dead, the mission is complete, and I even got extra gains — three Fifth Grade spirit herbs.

These are almost nonexistent in the outer perimeter, and you've probably never seen them in your entire life."

Xu Chen said dismissively, "Is that a lot?"

After saying that, Xu Chen took out five Fifth Grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures from his Storage Ring and waved them vigorously in front of Ye Xuan.

"See that? I just ate three, and there are still five left."

"No vision at all — you can't find them, and you think no one else can?"

Xu Chen sneered repeatedly, looking just like a villain at this moment.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan's body instantly stiffened, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Y-you got every single Fifth Grade spirit herb in the outer perimeter?"

Ye Xuan was dumbfounded on the spot.

Fifth Grade Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures were already rare in the outer perimeter, yet Xu Chen had collected eight of them!

If this wasn't the result of digging up every spirit herb nearby, how could it reach this extent!

Xu Chen nodded and said, "Yeah, only an idiot like you would need to enter the inner perimeter to find treasures — what a joke."

Ye Xuan flew into a rage: "I was being targeted!"

Damn it, so many Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasures, all gone — that's absurd!

Xu Chen said cheerfully, "Can't find them, just say so — lying and making excuses, truly a degenerate character."

Ye Xuan was struck at his sore spot and instantly flew into a fury: "Damn it, I'll kill you!"

Xu Chen sneered, "Kill me? Are you worthy?"

Ye Xuan said coldly, "Whether I'm worthy or not, you'll know soon enough."

"Whoosh!"

After saying that, Ye Xuan deployed the Heaven-Binding Hand, simultaneously erupting with the aura of Third Grade Mid-Stage, and charged straight at Xu Chen.

In the blink of an eye, he was in front of Xu Chen and struck down with a palm.

Xu Chen paid no attention, letting Ye Xuan's palm slam onto his shoulder.

Just when both he and Ye Xuan thought he would be sent flying, a crisp crack suddenly rang out.

Very clear, and very crisp.

Ye Xuan followed the sound and lowered his head, then stared blankly as he saw his palm had broken.

Not for any other reason, but because the force of Xu Chen's physical body rebounded and shattered his palm.
