While seers were one of the most unique occupations in the world, due to their unique abilities and esteemed standing, even master teachers dared not force them to do so. It was one thing for Zhang Xuan to frame him without any concrete evidence, but to think that he would even want to conduct a search on him!
It was simply unbearable!
"It's true that I don't have the right to search the area, but considering that the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe and the artifacts of the Sanctum of Sages are involved, it's hard for me to not be suspicious!"
Zhang Xuan glanced at Zhang Xuan and said, "Seers have always been aloof from worldly affairs, and they don't want to get involved in worldly affairs either. After all, whether I report this to the headquarters of Mingshi Tang or the headquarters of your association, you will be in trouble. "
"Are you threatening me?" The old man clenched his fists.
"Threaten? As the sanctum head of the Sanctum of Sages, there's no way I would do such a thing. However, if the Otherworldly Demons who stole Sage Kui's sculpture were to sneak into the Seer Guild, for the sake of the safety of mankind, I will personally investigate the matter. Even if I were to bring this matter to Mingshi Tang's headquarters, I don't think anyone would say anything about it! "
Zhang Xuan said calmly.
"The head of the Sanctum of Sages sure is impressive!"
Before the old man could say anything, a cold snort sounded. Then, two old men walked in from the side door.
Looking at these two people, Zhang Xuan immediately narrowed his eyes.
He actually couldn't see through the strength of the two with just a glance!
He was currently at Saint 9-dan pinnacle, but the fact that he was unable to see through it meant that the other party had at least reached Great Sage realm.
In a small place like Harvest Valley City, Saint 8-dan pinnacle was the limit. Yet, two Great Sages had suddenly popped out of nowhere …
Previously, they were just suspicious. But now, they all felt that there was definitely a problem.
"Not at all. May I know who the two of you are? I am currently speaking with the leader of the Seer Guild, so please shut your mouth! "
Zhang Xuan.
Great Sages of other occupations might still have to fear them if they didn't draw on Kong Shi's blood, but seers …
As long as he wanted to teach Zhang Xuan a lesson, it would only take a single thought.
"I am the vice leader of the Seer Guild headquarters, Qi Zhen. This is Elder Mo Qin! " The elder who had just arrived, Qi Zhen, flung his sleeves and harrumphed coldly. "There are no Otherworldly Demons hiding here, and no one has stolen the treasures of your Sanctum of Sages. Are you satisfied with my answer?"
"Not satisfied!" Zhang Xuan stood up and placed his hands behind his back. "Unless you let me search, I'm not leaving today …"
"You …"
Qi Zhen did not expect the other party to still say such words even after revealing his identity. Narrowing his eyes, he was just about to make a move when someone seemed to have said something to him. Suppressing his rage, he flung his sleeves and said, "Very well, you can search the area. However, I'll only give you three minutes. Regardless of whether you manage to find anything or not, I'll have to ask you to leave. We still have a huge ritual to perform, and the implications of divining are too great.
"Three minutes, okay!"
Zhang Xuan nodded. He stood up, and with a thought, he took out the golden page once more.
"Vicious, check to see if you can find the aura of the sternum!"
"Yes!" "Master, there's something amiss here. The aura is in chaos, and there's a sense of extreme danger!" Vicious replied as he began investigating the area. But just as he was about to do so, his body suddenly jolted, and he said with an anxious tone, "Master, there's something amiss here.
"Danger?" Zhang Xuan frowned.
What was it that made him feel so threatened?
"Hmm? The feeling has disappeared … I might have sensed it wrongly … My senses aren't as sharp as before after my cultivation has been severely damaged … "
Vicious said awkwardly.
He had clearly sensed the sternum earlier, but it had vanished without a trace in an instant. While he was perplexed, it was also possible that the sternum had been severely damaged, causing his senses to be inaccurate.
"Forget about the chaotic aura for now. Look for your sternum and see if it's here …"
Zhang Xuan sighed helplessly.
The Library of Heaven's Path had become unreliable, and Vicious was starting to become unreliable as well. What was going on?
Could it be that everyone around him had been afflicted with the Unreliable Curse?
But it was fortunate that he was still a reliable person, or else he would have really been in deep trouble.
"Yes!" Vicious replied before turning his attention back to Zhang Xuan. After a moment of scanning, his voice suddenly sounded, "Master, I can sense it. Your sternum … is indeed here! However … "
"However what?"
Not expecting it to really be here, Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes.
To collude with the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe to steal Sage Kui's sculpture from the Sanctum of Sages, what in the world was the Seer Guild up to?
"However, the aura is extremely bizarre. Previously, it was suppressed by Sage Kui's sculpture, so I couldn't sense it clearly. However, it's extremely clear now. It seems like … they have already destroyed the sculpture!"
Vicious said.
"Destroyed? It seems like it's indeed for the sternum … "Zhang Xuan took in a deep breath.
If it was only a guess previously, he had already confirmed it.
It was already bizarre for a vice guild leader and an elder to appear in such a remote Seer Guild. On top of that, they had even destroyed the sculpture and taken out its sternum … There was no way he would believe that they had nothing to do with the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe!
"Where is it?"
Unable to hold himself back any longer, Zhang Xuan asked.
Even if the sternum was taken out, he wouldn't be able to sense it.
"It's at the back of the hall!"
Vicious said.
"Un." Zhang Xuan nodded. He turned his gaze to the back of the hall and saw a massive, pitch-black door.
Just as he was about to walk over to take a closer look, Qi Zhen's voice sounded. "Alright, three minutes are up. Sanctum Head Zhang, you should return!"
"Return?"
Zhang Xuan sneered coldly. "I have already confirmed that the missing Sage Kui's sculpture is at the back of the hall. What do you mean by asking me to leave?"
"You are certain? How can you be so sure? "
Qi Zhen's face warped in shock.
"The Seer Guild is capable of divining the secrets of the heavens, and naturally, our Sanctum of Sages has our own means as well. If we can't even find the missing Sage Kui's sculpture … wouldn't I be a little too useless as the sanctum head?"
Zhang Xuan harrumphed coldly.
"You … Sanctum Head Zhang, our guild is about to begin the ritual, and we don't have the time to bicker with you. Please leave, or else don't blame us for getting nasty!"
Qi Zhen said with a wave of his hand.
"Get nasty? You dare to make a move on me? "
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes.
He didn't think that the Seer Guild would be so brazen as to collude with the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe to steal Sage Kui's sculpture and even threaten him.
"If you don't leave, I guess I'll have no choice but to do so!"
Qi Zhen nodded. His blood essence burst into flames, and his zhenqi surged into the heavens.
The other party was a Saint 2-dan Aureate Body realm expert!
Even though his strength was still far from matching up to the Xingmeng Sword Saints, it was more than enough to deal with a Saint 9-dan pinnacle cultivator like him.
Huala!
Seeing that Qi Zhen was about to make a move, Zhang Xuan was just about to take out his Dragonbone Divine Spear when a deafening explosion suddenly sounded. The tortoiseshell-shaped roof split open, and a figure dashed in through the opening.
"Wu Chen?"
It was none other than Lozosy's adolescent boy, Wu Chen!
After leaving Ancient Sage Ran Qiu's ancient domain, the adolescent boy had said that he had something to attend to before leaving. Why would he suddenly appear here?
