"Kid, you've got a pretty good plan. You actually want us to be your coolies."
"Did you really think we didn't notice you hiding in the back?"
"We haven't made a move yet mainly because it's inconvenient to make a move on the way. We might trigger some formation restrictions."
"Hand over Su Heng's key and we'll give you a quick death."
…
Looking at Mo Qingyun in front of them, they sneered.
Hearing their words, the corners of Mo Qingyun's mouth curled up slightly. With a calm expression, he said, "All five of you want the key. Who should we give it to?"
"Stinking brat, you're still trying to sow discord in our current situation."
Hearing Mo Qingyun's words, a dark-faced brawny man among them immediately shouted at Mo Qingyun.
Then, without saying anything more to Mo Qingyun, he immediately made a move on Mo Qingyun.
Seeing the brawny man's actions, a middle-aged scholar holding a fire pen said unhurriedly, "Jia Mo, don't be in a hurry to make a move. This kid is quite interesting. Let's hear what he has to say."
"Hmph!"
The brawny man snorted coldly and stopped what he was doing.
Then, the few of them stared coldly at Mo Qingyun. They wanted to see what Mo Qingyun was going to do.
Under their gazes, the corners of Mo Qingyun's mouth curled up slightly. He had guessed their concerns.
Tossing the key in his hand, Mo Qingyun said calmly, "If I'm not wrong, you didn't make a move on me because you were afraid that I would destroy the key, right?"
The few of them were silent, but their expressions showed that they were moved.
From the looks of it, Mo Qingyun had found out what they were thinking.
Knowing the thoughts of these people, Mo Qingyun's expression became even more indifferent. He smiled faintly and said, "My share is not high either. The treasures inside the cave, the two of us will each take a share."
Upon hearing Mo Qingyun's words, the expression of a young man with purple lips and a white face immediately became unsightly. He shouted, "Kid, don't go too far. Although the key in your hand is precious, we only have eight pieces in total. We can't open the final treasury."
"So it's for the final treasury!"
Hearing this person's words, Mo Qingyun nodded in understanding. The doubts in his heart had been resolved.
Understanding their intentions, the corners of Mo Qingyun's mouth curled up slightly. He took out another key and asked, "With this key, there shouldn't be any problems with my request, right?"
"He actually has a key as well. No wonder he explored all the danger zones."
Seeing the key in Mo Qingyun's hand, Zhu Lin's beautiful eyes trembled, and the doubt in her heart was answered.
In contrast to Zhu Lin's astonishment, Jia Mo and the others' faces were filled with excitement.
"I didn't think that even Zarong's key would be in this kid's hands."
"Now that all nine keys have been gathered, we can finally open the final treasury."
"After so many years, we can finally obtain the things that the old fellow has collected."
…
Fan Yue and the others had excited expressions as they spoke one sentence after another.
Seeing their expressions, the smile on Mo Qingyun's face immediately became even more pronounced.
He could see that although these people had come together, they were outwardly united but inwardly divided.
"Little brother, we have offended you just now. We accept your suggestion."
Fan Yue and the others exchanged glances. They revealed warm smiles and hurriedly greeted Mo Qingyun warmly.
Mo Qingyun did not pay attention to their polite greetings. His gaze flickered to the palace, and he said, "The treasures in this palace are not only in the final main hall, but also in the other side halls. I want to first obtain the treasures in two of the side halls before we can go to the final main hall."
Hearing Mo Qingyun's thoughts, Fan Yue and the others looked at each other, hesitating whether to agree to Mo Qingyun's request.
In their view, if they agreed to Mo Qingyun's request, wouldn't Mo Qingyun gain a great advantage?
A moment later.
Fan Yue and the others exchanged glances and reached a consensus. Fan Yue continued, "Little brother, we accept your suggestion, but only one of you can go to retrieve the treasures."
Hearing Fan Yue's request, Mo Qingyun pursed his lips, and a hesitant expression appeared on his face.
Seeing Mo Qingyun's expression, Zhu Lin knew what he was thinking. She immediately said gently to him, "You go, I'll stay behind as a hostage. When you've obtained the treasures, come and take me away."
"Alright!"
Mo Qingyun did not reject Zhu Lin's suggestion. He said to her sternly, "Wait here patiently, I'll be back soon."
"Mm!"
Zhu Lin nodded.
After giving Zhu Lin a few more instructions, Mo Qingyun entered a passage and headed to the side hall where the Su Heng Key led to.
Not long after, Mo Qingyun arrived at a side hall and saw a huge stone door.
There was a small groove on the door, which was where the key was placed.
Seeing the groove, Mo Qingyun immediately took out the key and placed it in the groove.
Following this, a mystical force was emitted from the stone door.
As the force appeared, the stone door began to shake and slowly moved to the sides.
Soon, the stone door opened, revealing a path leading to the side hall.
Seeing the stone door open, Mo Qingyun waved his hand and retrieved the key.
Then, Mo Qingyun walked out of the side hall, feeling a sense of anticipation. He said, "I hope I can find the Sacred Eternal Stone in this side hall."
Mo Qingyun entered the side hall and began to search everywhere for the various treasures hidden in the side hall.
Under Mo Qingyun's search, rare treasures appeared before his eyes one after another.
Among these treasures, there were rare materials for forging weapons, rare materials for refining pills, and all kinds of weapons.
What disappointed Mo Qingyun was that the Sacred Eternal Stone that he wanted was not among the many treasures.
"It looks like it'll be very difficult to find the Sacred Eternal Stone in this side hall."
Mo Qingyun could not help but sigh after searching the entire side hall and not finding the Sacred Eternal Stone.
Then, he did not stay any longer and headed to the side hall of the Zaron Key.
He also found many treasures in the side hall of the Zaron Key, but he still did not find the Sacred Eternal Stone.
Such an outcome made him feel helpless and a little disappointed.
"It looks like I can only see if there are any Sacred Eternal Stones in the main hall."
Mo Qingyun sighed inside when he emerged from the side hall of the Zaron Key. He went to meet up with Zhu Lin.
It didn't take long for Mo Qingyun to arrive in front of everyone. He passed a storage ring to Zhu Lin and said, "I obtained some cultivation resources from the two branch halls. I'll give them to you. Take them and leave immediately."
"Then what about you?"
Zhu Lin's expression changed when she saw Mo Qingyun's actions. She was rather moved.
