"Search carefully and see if you can find more Profound Spirit Sand Crystals. I only need to collect five more pieces, and I'll be able to repair the Illusionary God Soul-Stealing Mirror." A beautiful woman in a palace gown ordered the group behind her with a frown.
Her name was Dong Ruyi, and she was an elder of the Illusory God Sect. Her strength had already reached the sixth level of the Great Void Realm. She had damaged her weapon during her battle with a five-star Soul King, and then she encountered a sandstorm. She was in a bad mood, but she did not expect to find the Profound Spirit Sand Crystals in this place. She immediately asked the people of the Illusory God Sect to help her find the Profound Spirit Sand Crystals so that she could repair her weapon.
"Master, there are some people ahead who seem to be looking for Profound Spirit Sand Crystals. They must have found something. Why don't we ask them to hand it over? We'll definitely be able to gather five pieces," a woman suggested. The Illusionary God Sect was most proficient in illusory techniques, so there were many women in the sect.
"That's right, Master. We've only found a few pieces after searching for so long. With Master's status and strength, who would dare to disrespect you?" A male disciple echoed.
Dong Ruyi's gaze swept across Lu Xuan, Zheng Qiwei, and the others. She was rather tempted. Although there seemed to be a lot of Profound Spirit Sand Crystals in the desert, most of them were in the middle. She did not dare to risk the strange devouring power to pick them up.
With that thought, Dong Ruyi immediately walked toward Zheng Qiwei and the others. At the same time, she called out, "Are you people from the Octagonal Sacred Palace?"
Zheng Qiwei was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Dong Ruyi and revealed a trace of joy, "Are you Senior Sister Dong from the Illusionary God Sect?"
"That's right. You're … Zheng Qiwei?" Dong Ruyi stared at Zheng Qiwei and asked.
Hearing Dong Ruyi call out his name, Zheng Qiwei immediately said, "That's right. I didn't expect Senior Sister Dong to remember me. It's great to meet you here."
Zheng Qiwei cultivated the Illusory Sword Dao. In order to gain a deeper understanding of the Illusory Sword Dao, he had entered the Illusory God Sect to cultivate. Naturally, he knew Dong Ruyi. Of course, Dong Ruyi was a Level Six Grand Void Realm expert, which was far beyond Zheng Qiwei's capabilities.
Hearing the conversation between Zheng Qiwei and Dong Ruyi, Lu Xuan couldn't help but frown. He didn't expect that Zheng Qiwei and this woman were old acquaintances. He felt a little uneasy in his heart. This woman's aura was so strong that Zheng Qiwei couldn't compare to her. Even he might not be a match for her. Lu Xuan immediately distanced himself from them and walked to the other side.
"So it's you." Dong Ruyi nodded and said, "Did you pick up this Profound Spirit Sand Crystal? I need this thing to repair my Illusionary God Soul Seizing Mirror. Give it to me first, I will definitely repay you in the future."
The joy on Zheng Qiwei's face suddenly froze. He thought that it would be safer to follow Dong Ruyi. Who knew that when they met, he did not get any benefits. Instead, Dong Ruyi asked for the Xuanling Sand Crystal.
"This, I picked up a piece. If Senior Sister Dong needs it, you can take it." Zheng Qiwei felt very distressed as he took out a piece of Xuanling Sand Crystal and handed it to Dong Ruyi, but he still had to put on a smile on his face.
Unexpectedly, seeing that there was only one piece of Xuanling Sand Crystal, Dong Ruyi's face sank and she said unhappily, "Junior Brother Zheng, I am in urgent need of Xuanling Sand Crystals. If you have more on you and don't give it to me, if I find out in the future, it will hurt our friendship."
Although Dong Ruyi's words were pleasant to hear, the threat in her tone was self-evident. Zheng Qiwei's heart skipped a beat. Although Dong Ruyi looked good, she was not a kind person. People gave her the nickname Phantom Rakshasa, which showed that she was cruel and merciless.
Although the Xuanling Sand Crystal was indeed precious, Zheng Qiwei still felt that it was not worthwhile to offend Dong Ruyi for this little thing. After weighing in his heart, Zheng Qiwei suddenly laughed and said, "Senior Sister Dong must be joking. I originally wanted to keep two pieces to find someone to forge a long sword. Since Senior Sister Dong is in urgent need, then take them all."
Seeing Zheng Qiwei handed out two more pieces of Xuanling Sand Crystal, Dong Ruyi's expression eased and she nodded in satisfaction. She had obtained five pieces of Xuanling Sand Crystal. Zheng Qiwei could take out three pieces, so he did not hide anything. However, it was still a little short. She couldn't help but look at Lu Xuan who was alone.
Originally, she thought that Lu Xuan was with Zheng Qiwei, but now it seemed that it was obviously not the case.
"The kid in front, stop." Dong Ruyi shouted at Lu Xuan, and then walked towards Lu Xuan.
Zheng Qiwei couldn't help but rejoice in his heart. This female rakshasa robbed him of three pieces of Xuanling Sand Crystal, and Lu Xuan could not escape. Previously, he suffered a loss in the hands of Lu Xuan, and he had always held a grudge. However, he was not strong enough and could not do anything, but Dong Ruyi's strength was not comparable to his.
Hearing Dong Ruyi's words, Lu Xuan frowned even more. He was still targeted by this woman. He immediately stopped and turned back, saying, "Your Excellency, what can I do for you?"
Dong Ruyi couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, and a trace of displeasure flashed in her eyes. She shouted, "Which sect are you from? How can you not know the rules? You don't even know to call me 'Senior'?"
Hearing Dong Ruyi berate him, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel annoyed. When did she have the right to order him around? He immediately said, "I am a disciple of the Profound Ice Pavilion. Senior is an honorific. I don't know you, and I don't seem to have anything to ask of you. I don't even know who you are. Don't you think you're a bit too much?"
Seeing that Lu Xuan dared to refute her, Dong Ruyi's eyes flashed with anger. "So you're from the Jiuhua Alliance. No wonder you don't know the rules. Hand over the Xuanling Sand Crystals."
"I don't," Lu Xuan replied without even thinking.
Dong Ruyi's face darkened, and she said coldly, "So you're not going to hand them over? I am an elder of the Phantom God Sect. Think carefully, don't throw your life away for this little thing. "
Dong Ruyi wasn't as polite to Lu Xuan as she was to Zheng Qiwei. She directly threatened him.
Lu Xuan couldn't help but chuckle. "This is the first time I've seen someone as shameless as you. You directly demand treasures, and if I don't give them, you'll kill me. Did the Phantom God Sect send you here to kill people and take their treasures?"
"What a sharp-tongued brat. Do I need you to teach me what to do?" Dong Ruyi shouted angrily. "I'll give you two choices. Hand over your storage ring, or let me kill you and take it myself."
Seeing Dong Ruyi's overbearing attitude, Zheng Qiwei was secretly pleased. He immediately added fuel to the fire. "Senior apprentice-sister Dong, this brat spoke rudely before, slandering me for having disloyal intentions towards the Zheng family. Unfortunately, his strength is extraordinary, and even I am no match for him. I can see that he has some great treasures on him. If senior apprentice-sister Dong is willing to avenge me, I am willing to lend you a hand, and all the treasures I obtain will belong to you."
Lu Xuan's heart sank. This Zheng Qiwei really wasn't a good guy. He had inexplicably accused Lu Xuan of possessing treasures, and this only increased Dong Ruyi's killing intent. Lu Xuan didn't want to kill, so he spared Zheng Qiwei's life. He didn't expect to leave behind a scourge. If he had known this would happen, he would have killed Zheng Qiwei.
