Chapter 488: 485: Unexpected Joy_1
No matter whether it was Wu Ming or the other Yuanshan Sect disciples, they all looked at each other with bitter smiles, their gazes falling on Yang Chen. At that time, Yang Chen took all the responsibility upon himself, so they instinctively thought that Yang Chen wanted to bear the matter alone.
However, they were all Yang Chen’s senior and junior brothers, and most of them were older than Yang Chen. How could they let Yang Chen bear this alone?
“What’s going on?”
“Yeah, what’s with your expressions?” A few Supreme Elders observed carefully and saw the pessimistic expressions of these Yuanshan Sect disciples. They furrowed their brows and asked.
Wu Ming stepped forward and said, “Elder, this is what happened…”
Just like that, Wu Ming quickly recounted the ins and outs of the situation.
After hearing the full story, the high-level Yuanshan Sect members were all filled with rage and anger.
“This Fu Shui Sect is simply…”
“This… Sect Leader, this is unbearable. At first, I thought the Fu Shui Sect was just trying to humiliate our Yuanshan Sect. Who knew they would chase and kill us from start to finish. They have more people, so they could split up to chase us while also gaining benefits. Our Yuanshan Sect has gained nothing from this Secret Realm Trip!”
“Not just barely, but really empty-handed!”
“You didn’t get anything?”
Even Mù Báishēng’s expression was embarrassing.
How much had their Yuanshan Sect sacrificed for this Secret Realm Trip?
But now, they had not even gained the slightest bit, wouldn’t they be in total loss?
“No, I can’t stand it. I have to fight Fu Shui Sect to the death!”
“We must seek justice for this matter. The Fu Shui Sect may be powerful in Luo Yun County, but in our North Mountain County, it’s not their turn to run wild!” A few hot-tempered Yuanshan Sect elders began to shout.
They were joking. Even a fierce dragon wouldn’t dare to oppress a local snake. Did the Fu Shui Sect really think that their Yuanshan Sect was an easy target?
Indeed, while the Fu Shui Sect’s overall strength was indeed stronger than the Yuanshan Sect, it was still unknown who would win or lose if they fought in North Mountain County. Giving them face didn’t mean they were afraid of them.
Seeing these elders about to seek retribution, Yang Chen, with a wry smile on his face, hurriedly said, “Everyone, calm down. Although it’s true that our fellow disciples have suffered losses and didn’t get much treasure, our Yuanshan Sect isn’t completely empty-handed from this Secret Realm Trip.”
“Yang Chen, what do you mean?”
“Yes, Yang Chen, what’s going on?”
In an instant, everyone’s eyes were on Yang Chen.
Wu Ming and the other disciples looked at each other in astonishment.
At first, they thought Yang Chen was putting the responsibility on himself to spare his senior and junior brothers from suffering and punishment. But now, it seemed that this was not the case. Was Yang Chen just bluffing, or did he really have a way?
Feeling the gazes on him, Yang Chen said, “Elders, Sect Leader, please hear me out. When I captured Han Haofeng and killed Chen Zi’an, I took their Storage Bags from their waists. These Storage Bags are in my hands, and they contain quite a few Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Please take a look.”
As he spoke, Yang Chen unhesitatingly opened all the Storage Bags and poured out all the contents with a crash.
Following that, the various treasures and materials piled up like a mountain, appearing before everyone’s eyes.
It was indeed a mountain of treasures, there were too many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
So many that people were shocked!
“This…”
“What on earth is going on?”
The Yuanshan Sect elders were somewhat unable to make sense of the sudden changes between great joy and great sorrow.
With so many treasures, it was more than they had expected their disciples to obtain when they entered the Secret Realm. Not only did it reach their expectations, but it also far exceeded them.
Similarly, they were curious how Yang Chen came to possess so many treasures while also feeling terrified, and quickly set up a Formation.
Everyone understood that wealth should not be flaunted. So many treasures should not be seen by other forces.
“Yang Chen, what’s going on?”
“With so many treasures, even Han Haofeng and Chen Zi’an, being Fu Shui Sect disciples, couldn’t possibly have so many.”
Yang Chen had already thought of an explanation: “I don’t know about that either. In fact, I was initially very surprised when I checked the number of treasures in these Storage Bags. But after thinking it through, it is likely that Han Haofeng and Chen Zi’an were in charge of all the treasures obtained by Fu Shui Sect. When I took these Storage Bags, perhaps…”
“If that’s the case? Did you take almost all of the treasures Fu Shui Sect obtained?”
“Not necessarily, but it’s clear that I’ve grabbed quite a few.”
“Hahaha, now it’s the Fu Shui Sect’s turn to be embarrassed.”
“Who cares about them? Our Yuanshan Sect is afraid of the Fu Shui Sect? Humph, this is called failing to steal a chicken and losing rice. The Fu Shui Sect deserves it!”
Whether it was the elders or Wu Ming and his fellow disciples, their expressions became more lively.
It was refreshing, incredibly refreshing. Seeing Yang Chen’s actions, they felt much more comfortable. They initially thought that their Yuanshan Sect had lost big, but now it seemed that the Fu Shui Sect had brought this humiliation upon themselves. Their Yuanshan Sect, on the other hand, had taken advantage of it.
“Haha, Young Sect Master, well done!”
“Yang Chen, you did a great job!”
“Hahaha, it’s so refreshing! I wonder how rich the expressions of the Fu Shui Sect would be when they find out they didn’t get anything significant this time, and we took advantage of them!”
“It’s what they deserve.”
“Humph, they truly deserve it!”
Yang Chen listened to the praise from his seniors and juniors, rubbing his nose innocently.
It was true that the Storage Bags were taken from Chen Zi’an and Han Haofeng, and there were indeed many treasures inside. However, it wasn’t to the extent of the current situation. Otherwise, the Fu Shui Sect would go crazy. The reason it piled up like a mountain was entirely because of him.
As the controller of the Secret Realm, he had a large amount of low-level materials, which he used to repay the Yuanshan Sect. Therefore, he took out many of his low-grade materials and put them in the Storage Bags.
Although they were low-level materials, the sheer quantity was still astonishing. If he said he had obtained them himself, people might be surprised and disbelieving.
So, Yang Chen used Chen Zi’an and Han Haofeng as a cover.
Now, it seemed that the effect was quite satisfactory.
