There were too many people, not just one or two, but thousands. They were so densely packed that they could not see the end of them. They surrounded them tightly.
Hong Jun and Patriarch Yang Mei could no longer describe their feelings. They were completely dumbfounded. They had carefully checked the main hall of Wanjie Lou. There was not a single living creature.
Before entering Wanjie Lou, they had searched the Myriad World Mall and did not find any living creatures, not even a "Life Puppet."
How did so many people appear in the blink of an eye? And they did not know how long they had been here.
What surprised and calmed him was that Donghuang Taiyi was among the crowd.
He was surprised that Donghuang Taiyi was a customer of Wanjie Lou. At the same time, he was relieved that Donghuang Taiyi was a customer of Wanjie Lou.
During the Great Trial of the Demonic Dao, Donghuang Taiyi, a cultivator who was unknown in Untainted Land, actually displayed an aura that surpassed him and Demon Ancestor Luo Hou.
Hong Jun knew very well that he and Demon Ancestor Luo Hou were the two strongest people in Untainted Land during the Great Trial of the Demonic Dao.
How could he not be surprised when a strange Donghuang Taiyi suddenly appeared?
Now, seeing Donghuang Taiyi among the customers of Wanjie Lou, his eyelids trembling and his face distorted, Hong Jun understood everything.
The reason why Donghuang Taiyi had so many strange tricks was that he had become a customer of Wanjie Lou.
"Why am I thinking about these things?"
Hong Jun could not help but shiver. He felt that his brain had rusted. Why was he still thinking about what had happened to Donghuang Taiyi at this time?
They had just wanted to control Wanjie Lou and inherit all the goods of Wanjie Lou. Now that the real controller of Wanjie Lou had come, what should he do?
"Gulp ~"
Patriarch Yang Mei scanned the surroundings with his empty eyes. He could not help but swallow and feel a chill on his back.
Although he did not want to admit it, he understood one thing. There were at least hundreds of people standing around him who could suppress him.
Moreover, the controller of Wanjie Lou had returned to Wanjie Lou.
Previously, the Myriad World Tavern could easily shift them from the Purple Cloud Palace to this place. Hence, it could also easily suppress them.
Before entering Wanjie Lou's main hall, he wasn't very clear about Wanjie Lou's actual strength.
However, he and Hongjun visited the fifth and sixth floors of Wanjie Lou and chose a lot of high-end goods. They had a certain understanding of the level of the treasures owned by Wanjie Lou.
Putting aside the Dharma treasures and elixirs, many of the experts in the Wanjie Lou were far stronger than them.
They used to be the strongest in the world, but now they had become Wanjie Lou's merchandise. Would he and Hongjun also become Wanjie Lou's merchandise?
"What are you two doing?"
Zhou Yang stepped forward with a mocking smile on his face.
With a flicker of his mind, he knew what had happened in Wanjie Lou. He also knew what Hong Jun and Old Ancestor Yang Mei had done and thought.
"We …"
Hong Jun and Old Ancestor Yang Mei felt as if the air around them had solidified. An invisible force enveloped their bodies, making them unable to move. They wanted to escape back to their original world, but they couldn't connect to the world where they were.
Even though they couldn't sense Zhou Yang's aura, the two of them felt their souls trembling. Because when they tried to use their magic power to escape, a cold aura locked onto the two of them, chilling them to the bone.
They even had an illusion that if they dared to use any magic, they would be turned into ashes.
"How can he be so strong?"
Old Ancestor Yang Mei's body trembled subconsciously. It wasn't because he was afraid, but out of instinct.
Just like during the Great Heaven-Opening Tribulation, he might have admired Pangu's strength, but he wasn't afraid of Pangu.
However, when Pangu split the heavens and earth, he still felt a strong sense of crisis. He instinctively wanted to escape from the area where Pangu split the heavens and earth.
The feeling he had now was many times stronger than during the Great Heaven-Opening Tribulation. He could clearly feel the danger of death looming over him. If there was any abnormal movement, he wouldn't have a chance to survive.
Hong Jun didn't say anything. His face was slightly pale, and cold sweat was dripping down his forehead. A powerful aura that seemed to be there yet not was looking down on him. It was as if when he was still weak, he had encountered some living beings that were reincarnated from Chaos Demon Gods. The realms of strength of both parties weren't on the same level.
He didn't expect that he would encounter such a terrifying feeling when he had grown to his current realm.
"Since you're not talking, does that mean you're admitting to stealing?"
Zhou Yang's expression turned cold. The smile on his face disappeared, and he spoke in an indifferent voice.
Strictly speaking, Hong Jun and Old Ancestor Yang Mei didn't violate the rules of Wanjie Lou when they moved the goods from the fifth and sixth floors to the first floor of Wanjie Lou.
Although they had such thoughts in their minds, their actions didn't violate the rules of Wanjie Lou.
Whether it was holding the goods on the sixth floor of Wanjie Lou in their arms or walking around with the goods on the fifth floor of Wanjie Lou, these actions didn't violate the rules of Wanjie Lou.
Wanjie Lou allowed its customers to touch the physical goods. As long as they didn't take these physical goods out of the main hall of Wanjie Lou and put them back where they were, it was within the scope of Wanjie Lou's rules.
However, under normal circumstances, when the customers of Wanjie Lou touched the physical goods, they would at most touch them in front of the counter and look at them for a minute or two before putting them back on the crystal counter. Moreover, they would only take one physical item to look at at most.
This was the first time that someone carried a large pile of high-end goods of Wanjie Lou and 'specially went to a specific place'. They sat on the ground and carefully looked at them one by one. They even wanted to remember the runes and formations on those magic treasures.
This last rule was indeed against the rules of Wanjie Lou.
"Stealing?"
Upon hearing this, Hong Jun and Yang Mei's hearts skipped a beat. It was such a strange and familiar word. Experts like them had actually committed the crime of stealing.
However, could a cultivator's business be called stealing?
A cultivator's business was called an opportunity. This time, their opportunity hadn't come, and they didn't have enough luck to suppress it.
The two of them were also a little frightened. According to the rules of Wanjie Lou in their minds, using any magic in Wanjie Lou was a capital offense, and Wanjie Lou could obliterate them.
Although they didn't use any magic, they wanted to control Wanjie Lou. This crime was ten times, no, a hundred times more serious than using magic in Wanjie Lou.
If they accidentally used magic in Wanjie Lou, they might be able to redeem their lives by spending some value points.
However, was what they did something that could be solved with value points?
"Shopkeeper, I didn't know anything at all. I thought that I entered the inheritance left by a Great Divine Power, so I did something extreme."
"I owe the Primitive Heavenly Dao karma, and I have three children who are crying piteously for food. Please forgive me, Shopkeeper."
Ancestor Yang Mei bowed deeply and pleaded.
The people of Wanjie Lou, "…"
Zhou Yang, "…"
