The grade four spirit sword Duan Lingtian used to exchange for the Void Fuse Fruit was precisely the sword the Darkhan Dynasty's Milky Way City's Treasure Gathering Pavilion's Pavilion Master gave him.
"King Yong, this is?"
Duan Lingtian's group of ten followed behind King Yong and arrived before the pavilion ahead, and someone couldn't refrain from asking.
"This is the treasure vault of our Darkstone Empire's Imperial Family. Various rare materials, medicinal pills, and spirit weapons are stored within it …"
King Yong spoke slowly.
"Spirit weapon?"
The eyes of many lit up. "Are there grade four spirit weapons?"
King Yong shook his head. "Only grade five spirit weapons."
Instantly, the interest of everyone present waned.
But there were a few people that were extremely interested.
Even though they possessed grade five spirit weapons in their possession, they were temporarily lent to them by the powers they belonged to.
Once they were eliminated in the Dynasty Martial Competition, they would have to hand it over when they returned.
If they were able to obtain a grade five spirit weapon now, it would undoubtedly be a good thing to them.
Of course, there were also people like Duan Lingtian and Su Li that possessed a grade five spirit weapon of their own.
These people weren't interested in grade five spirit weapons.
"The treasure vault of the Darkstone Empire has some good things in the end."
In next to no time, their gazes couldn't help but light up and were filled with anticipation.
"All of you remember, every single one of you can only choose a single treasure from within … If anyone is greedy, then blood will splatter!"
An old man behind King Yong swept Duan Lingtian's group of ten with a fierce gaze as he spoke with a low voice.
Duan Lingtian's group of ten nodded.
What a joke!
Stealing treasures under the eyes of King Yong and these two old fellows that were suspected to be at the seventh level of the Void Initiation Stage or above, wasn't that courting death?
Rumble! Rumble!
…
Finally, the door to the Darkstone Empire's treasure vault was opened.
The scene that entered their eyes was a dazzling sight, and it caused Duan Lingtian and the others to be dazzled.
Right when King Yong intended to bring Duan Lingtian and the others in.
"Wait!"
A voice that was pleasant like an oriole suddenly sounded out from the horizon.
Instantly, Duan Lingtian and the others couldn't help but turn around.
A yellow figure, as fast as lightning, descended from the sky and landed in front of Duan Lingtian and the others in the blink of an eye.
A beautiful yellow-clothed girl appeared in front of the group of people.
Even the guards who had heard the commotion were stunned.
The person who fell from the sky was actually a young girl?
Judging from her appearance, she was at most fifteen or sixteen years old …
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old Emptiness Realm Martial Artist?
The group of guards felt their scalps go numb.
Actually, it wasn't just them. Even the Prince of Yong, the two old men behind the Prince of Yong, and the group of young geniuses were all dumbfounded.
Compared to the yellow-clothed girl in front of them, they felt that they had lived like dogs all these years.
When they were at their age, it was already not bad to have a cultivation at the Origin Core Stage.
"Be careful!"
Right at this moment, Prince Yong seemed to have noticed something, and his face went pale as he shouted out in surprise.
At the same time.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Two bolts of lightning, one black and one white, shot towards Duan Lingtian with the fastest speed possible.
Amongst the people present, only Prince Yong, the two old men behind the Prince of Yong, and Mo Xuan and He Long were able to clearly see the trajectory of these two bolts of lightning.
"Hiss hiss ~"
In next to no time, they saw a scene that caused them to be astounded.
They saw that a little python had appeared on each side of Duan Lingtian's shoulders …
The two little pythons, one black and one white, they were utterly unable to discern what type of snake they were.
Presently, the two little pythons were flicking their tongues as they excitedly licked Duan Lingtian's face.
"Little Black, Little White."
Whereas Duan Lingtian had recovered from the shock of the yellow clothed young girl's appearance, and he stretched out his hand to grab the two little pythons before sizing them up with a light smile.
"Hehe … Big Brother Ling Tian."
Meanwhile, the yellow clothed young girl looked at Duan Lingtian.
"Xue Nai."
Duan Lingtian looked at the young girl and was slightly pleasantly surprised. "How did all of you know I was here?"
The yellow clothed young girl before him wasn't someone else.
It was precisely Han Xuenai that took the two little pythons away that day.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, Little Black, Little White, and I originally returned to that cave to look for you, but unexpectedly, you'd already left … So we came all the way here to look for you."
Han Xuenai said with a light smile, "I heard you came to the Darkstone Empire to participate in the Young Genius Competition?"
"It has already ended."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"It's ended?"
Han Xuenai drooped her little head and was slightly listless.
After that, she seemed to have thought of something and asked. "Then what are all of you doing now?"
"This is the treasure vault of the Darkstone Empire's Imperial Palace. We intend to go in and receive the rewards of the Young Genius Competition this time, and each of us will choose a treasure."
Duan Lingtian said.
"Treasure? Can I go in and choose with you? "
Han Xuenai's eyes glowed as her interest was aroused.
"This … You'll have to ask King Yong."
Duan Lingtian looked at King Yong with embarrassment, and he said via voice transmission with a slightly perturbed expression. "King Yong, this little girl is insensible, don't …"
Duan Lingtian hadn't finished speaking to remedy the situation.
Han Xuenai had already walked before King Yong, and she wasn't afraid in the slightest when facing King Yong who had a serious expression.
Whoosh!
Han Xuenai soared into the sky and stretched out her white wrist to lightly pat King Yong on the shoulder. "Uncle Red Mole, I want to go in and choose a treasure with Big Brother Ling Tian. Is that alright?"
"Xue Nai!"
Duan Lingtian never imagined that Han Xuenai would make such an insane action, and he instantly felt his scalp go numb.
Uncle Red Mole?
The others were dumbstruck when they heard Han Xuenai.
Including the two old men behind King Yong.
Subsequently, the group of people looked at Han Xuenai with pitiful expressions.
As far as they were concerned.
Even though this young woman was beautiful and possessed extraordinary natural talent in the Martial Dao.
But joking with the number one expert of the Darkstone Empire, King Yong, like this bode ill for her.
"King Yong …"
Duan Lingtian took a deep breath and wanted to plead for mercy for Han Xuenai.
"Of course."
King Yong spoke out and interrupted Duan Lingtian, causing Duan Lingtian to be dumbstruck.
King Yong looked at Han Xuenai with a kind expression and said with a smile, "Little Girl, since you're interested in the treasure vault of our Darkstone Empire's Imperial Family, then go in with them … You can choose the treasures within and take whatever you want."
"Thank you, Uncle Red Mole."
Han Xuenai's eyes glowed as her figure flashed, and she seemed to have transformed into a gust of wind that charged into the treasure vault.
At this moment, she'd tossed Duan Lingtian to the back of her mind.
Outside the treasure vault, everyone including Duan Lingtian were dumbstruck, and all of them looked at King Yong with disbelief.
"King Yong is so easy to talk to?"
Duan Lingtian and some people that weren't familiar with King Yong thought in their hearts.
Only some people that had heard of King Yong's deeds had expressions of disbelief. "King Yong is actually so courteous to that young woman … Could it be that the young woman has some great background?"
At this moment, even the two old men that followed behind King Yong thought like this.
"All of you go in."
The smile on King Yong's face was restrained, and he recovered his old-fashioned expression as he spoke indifferently to Duan Lingtian and the others.
Duan Lingtian and the others instantly entered the treasure vault.
"King Yong …"
Meanwhile, the two old men behind King Yong looked at King Yong at the same time with bewildered expressions.
"Revered Elders, I know what both of you want to ask … We can't afford to offend this young woman."
King Yong sighed, and there was slight fear in the depths of his gaze.
The two old men were instantly petrified when they heard this.
Can't afford to offend?
These words were spoken by King Yong?
In next to no time, they thought of the accomplishments the young woman had obtained at such an age, and they couldn't help but come to a sudden understanding. "Perhaps, this young woman is the beloved daughter of the higher-ups of those top powers in the Darkhan Dynasty!"
Duan Lingtian followed the crowd to walk into the treasure vault.
But traces of bewilderment were mixed within his heart from the beginning until the end.
The change in King Yong's attitude was too strange.
"Could it be that Xue Nai sent a voice transmission to King Yong earlier and told him of her background?"
In the end, Duan Lingtian could only think like this.
According to his knowledge, the yellow clothed young woman, Han Xuenai, was from the Foreign Lands.
According to his guess, there was an enormous power behind Han Xuenai.
Otherwise, how could it help her possess her cultivation at such an age?
"Wait!"
Suddenly, Duan Lingtian seemed to have thought of something, and his face went slightly pale. "Why didn't I notice earlier … Xue Nai's current appearance seems to be no different from all those years ago, and there's utterly no change!"
"According to convention, she ought to be at least a little over 20 this year … But her appearance is still like a 15 or 16 year old young woman, like a child that hasn't grown up."
Duan Lingtian's heart trembled when he thought up to here.
The Heavenly Mountain Maiden!
At the first possible moment, a terrifying thought emerged in Duan Lingtian's heart.
He still remembered.
In his previous life on Earth, there was a famous Wuxia novel where there was an existence known as the 'Heavenly Mountain Maiden'.
The Heavenly Mountain Maiden was over 100 years old, yet looked to only have the appearance of a young woman.
"Could it be that Han Xuenai is an old witch that's over 100 years old as well? An old freak? "
Duan Lingtian's heart trembled, and he felt a chill run down his spine.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian looked at Han Xuenai who was looking around in the treasure vault, and his Spiritual Force silently stretched out with the intention of detecting Han Xuenai's strength.
But unfortunately, his Spiritual Force had only just touched a meter away from Han Xuenai's body when it sunk into the sea and didn't move again.
"It's as if there's some sort of energy that's preventing me from detecting Han Xuenai … This feeling is completely different from when I'm detecting a Void Interpretation Stage expert like King Yong."
Duan Lingtian suddenly felt that the identity of this yellow clothed young woman of unknown origins was becoming more and more mysterious.
"Hiss hiss ~"
Right at this moment, the sounds of the two little pythons flicking their tongues sounded out by Duan Lingtian's ears.
"Right, how could I have forgotten about you two?"
Duan Lingtian looked at the two little pythons and sent a voice transmission into their ears. "Little Black, Little White … Both of you ought to be able to communicate with me via voice transmission now, right? If you're unable, then both of you are even inferior to Little Gold. "
Instantly.
"Big Brother, we're much more formidable than it! When we were at the Void Prying Stage, we were already able to communicate with Big Sister Han Xuenai via voice transmission. "
"Yeah, yeah … Big Brother, we're very formidable!"
Two hurried and immature voice transmissions entered into Duan Lingtian's ears at the same time.
The former sounded like the voice of a young boy.
