On the fifth floor of the treasury!
Every time Thaling exclaimed the origin of a precious material, the confusion on Yu Haoran's face would increase.
When Thaling picked out more than twenty precious refining materials in a very short time, his frown had already formed a very obvious' Chuan 'character.
"Yu Haoran, what's wrong?"
Thaling, who had been immersed in selecting precious materials, suddenly felt that the atmosphere was too quiet. He couldn't help but glance at Yu Haoran and hurriedly asked when he saw the frown on Yu Haoran's forehead.
"Thaling, don't you feel that something is wrong?!" Yu Haoran reminded him.
"No, these artifacts and refining materials are all real."
Thaling scanned the entire fifth floor of the treasury with his divine sense, but he didn't find anything unusual.
"Thaling, whether it's in terms of quantity or grade, the artifacts and refining materials in the treasury are not inferior to those of a first-rate sect."
"The treasury of a mere second-rate sect has artifacts and refining materials that are not inferior to those of a first-rate sect. Don't you think there's something wrong with this?!"
Yu Haoran continued to remind him as he pointed at the dozen or so top-grade emperor artifacts in the depths of the treasury.
"That's true!"
Yu Haoran's reminder calmed Thaling down from his surprise. He thought about it carefully and also realized that something was wrong.
"If the Four Symbols Sect has secretly pledged allegiance to a powerful faction, under normal circumstances, the faction supporting them wouldn't just provide artifacts and refining materials. They would also need a large amount of top-grade spirit stones and pills."
"Unless they've accidentally obtained …!"
Without waiting for Thaling to voice his speculation, Yu Haoran immediately turned his head and shouted in the direction of the stairs leading to the fourth floor.
"Guangbei!"
"Holy son-in-law!"
After hearing Yu Haoran's call, Han Guangbei hurriedly put down the Mystic level nine mental cultivation method he had just picked and quickly entered the fifth floor of the treasury.
Although he was also shocked by the dazzling magic tool in front of him, his gratitude towards Yu Haoran made him quickly suppress the greed in his heart and kneel down on one knee.
"Bring the Sect Leader of the Four Symbols Sect, Hong Shitian, Vice Sect Leader Xia, and the Second Elder here immediately," Yu Haoran ordered in a hurried tone.
"This subordinate obeys!"
After getting up, Han Guangbei immediately used a movement technique and quickly left the treasury.
Yu Haoran sucked in a deep breath as he watched Han Guangbei quickly leave the treasury. He gestured for Thaling to continue choosing the materials he wanted. He closed his eyes and began to recall the experiences of his previous life. He wanted to see if he could find any ruins or cave abodes that he had seen or heard of in the territory of the Four Symbols Sect.
Not much time passed. Just as Thaling finished choosing the fifth material, Han Guangbei carried Hong Shitian and the other two into the fifth floor of the treasury.
"Guangbei, continue to the fourth floor and choose a cultivation method. As long as it's something you like, you can take as many as you want." Seeing that Hong Shitian and the other two were still unconscious, Yu Haoran squeezed out a smile and instructed Han Guangbei, "Let's go.
"Holy son-in-law, I'll take my leave first!"
Han Guangbei, who had already guessed what Yu Haoran wanted to do, not only immediately got up and returned to the fourth floor of the treasury, but he also immediately immersed himself in choosing a cultivation method. He wanted to avoid the greed that welled up in his heart and planned to spy on the fifth floor of the treasury.
Seeing that Han Guangbei was so tactful, Yu Haoran nodded his head in satisfaction and gestured for Thaling to start searching the memories of Hong Shitian and the other two.
Half an hour later, Thaling raised his head and looked at Yu Haoran with a serious expression.
"Yu Haoran, tell me the truth. What is your true purpose in entering the Four Symbols Sect?"
"For a magic weapon, a magic weapon of the demonic path that is recovering, a demonic treasure that might have been born naturally!"
Actually, when Yu Haoran asked Thaling to search the memories of Hong Shitian and the other two, Yu Haoran knew that Thaling would definitely discover his true purpose in helping the northern army break through the Four Symbols Concentration Formation and exterminate the Four Symbols Sect.
Therefore, he did not hide anything and answered truthfully.
"At least you know your place!"
Seeing that Yu Haoran obediently answered his true purpose in entering the Four Symbols Sect, Thaling's grave expression gradually eased a little.
"Thaling, let's not talk about that magic weapon of the demonic path for now. Have you found out the true origins of these magic weapons and materials?"
Seeing that Thaling was no longer pursuing the fact that he had deliberately concealed his true purpose in entering the Four Symbols Sect, Yu Haoran hurriedly asked after heaving a sigh of relief.
"Found it!"
Nodding, Thaling said with a slightly disappointed expression.
"But the results are different from our earlier speculation."
"Because these magic weapons and materials came from the Green Hill Foxes. They were part of the reward for exchanging that magic weapon of the demonic path."
Thaling's explanation had finally solved a question that had been accumulating in his heart for a long time.
In his previous life, when he was captured and tortured in the Four Symbols Sect, that magic weapon of the demonic path was almost fully recovered.
With the terrifying power of the magic weapon of the demonic path, even Emperor Qin, a peerless powerhouse who had become a Martial Venerable, would definitely not dare to provoke the Four Symbols Sect.
However, in less than half a year after he had escaped from the Four Symbols Sect, the Four Symbols Sect had been easily conquered by the northern army. This had always made him wonder why Hong Shitian and the others had not used that magic weapon of the demonic path to threaten Emperor Qin.
Now, it seemed that the Green Hill Foxes had taken away the magic weapon of the demonic path as soon as the Four Symbols Sect had repaired it.
At the same time, Yu Haoran finally understood.
In his previous life, the reason why the Four Symbols Sect had been able to hold out for so many years under the siege of a hundred thousand elite soldiers of Emperor Qin's Kingdom was probably related to the secret assistance of the Green Hill Foxes.
After all, the true strength of the Green Hill Foxes was not much weaker than that of Emperor Qin's Kingdom.
The origins of the magic weapons and materials on the fifth floor of the treasury were not as he had guessed. Perhaps they were a cave left behind by a master refiner. Having lost all hope, Yu Haoran signaled Thaling to erase Hong Shitian and the other two's memories about the magic weapon of the demonic path. Then, he began to choose the magic weapons before him.
"Yu Haoran, according to the search of Hong Shitian's memories just now, apart from the three before us, the other people in the Four Symbols Sect who know about the secret of the magic weapon of the demonic path are Vice Sect Master Qian, who escaped, and the Grand Elder who went out to search for the blood essence of exotic beasts with the bloodline of divine beasts."
Seeing that Yu Haoran had already noticed the importance of keeping the magic weapon of the demonic path a secret, Thaling hurriedly reminded him.
"Thaling, don't worry."
Yu Haoran smiled and comforted Thaling when he heard that Thaling was worried that the news of the demonic path's treasure would be leaked.
"With General Qi's strength and speed, I believe that he will definitely be able to capture Vice Sect Master Qian alive. When that happens, just erase his memories about the magic weapon of the demonic path. "
"As for the Grand Elder of the Four Symbols Sect, you don't have to worry about him either."
