On the third floor of the Sky Tower, Daoist Duobao's mind was blank. He really could not understand how his treasure ended up in Ling Xian's hands in the blink of an eye.
Everyone present could not understand either.
There was no lack of powerhouses among them, but no one noticed that Daoist Duobao's treasure had run into Ling Xian's hands.
"Return my treasure!" Daoist Duobao's face was ashen, and his entire body was trembling with anger.
"Call it. If it agrees, I'll return it to you."
Ling Xian smiled faintly and played with the fiery red ruler that was surrounded by divine flames. He revealed a hint of mockery.
"Dammit, there's no fluctuation of spiritual energy, and there's no aura of supernatural powers. What kind of demonic technique did you use?" Daoist Duobao's face was as dark as water. Other than grief and anger, he also shuddered.
Everyone else was the same.
It was too strange. Anyone would feel uneasy if they were to silently take away Daoist Duobao's treasure.
"If you could sense it, I wouldn't have used it."
Ling Xian smiled. The Heaven Stealing Hand was an unparalleled and mysterious technique. Even if it was only at the beginner level, it was not something that Daoist Duobao could sense.
"Kid, just you wait."
Daoist Duobao gritted his teeth. He was already extremely angry, but other than speaking ruthlessly, there was nothing he could do.
Ling Xian's methods were too strange. Whether it was breaking treasures or stealing treasures, he was helpless.
"Why didn't you listen to my advice? Isn't it good to leave in silence? "
Ling Xian laughed and shook his head, causing Daoist Duobao to realize something. He hurriedly moved and wanted to leave this place.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
A golden seal flew out of his storage bag and landed in Ling Xian's hand.
This seal was extraordinary. It was engraved with the Four Spirits Pattern. It was vivid and lifelike.
"My Four Spiritual Seal!"
With a pig-like scream, Daoist Duobao was filled with grief, anger, and shock.
Everyone was also shocked.
They had already focused 120% and even locked onto Ling Xian with the power of their souls. However, they still did not notice it.
There was no fluctuation of spiritual energy or the aura of supernatural powers. It was as if Daoist Duobao's treasure really flew into Ling Xian's hands.
"Return my Four Spiritual Seal!" Daoist Duobao stared at Ling Xian. His eyes seemed to be spitting fire.
"What's in my hands is mine. How can I return it?"
Ling Xian softly grinned, "Plus, you are threatening me. If you talk nicely, maybe I will give it back to you."
Hearing this, the Daoist of Duo Bao's anger reached an extreme point. He wanted nothing more than to cut Ling Xian into eight pieces.
However, he didn't dare to.
Ling Xian's methods were far too eerie. Ling Xian stole his treasures at the slightest disagreement. How could he still be so arrogant?
"I won't make things difficult for you. Just apologize."
Ling Xian softly grinned, "If you apologize, then I will return the ruler and the seal to you. Don't even think about the gourd. I will keep it for my liquor."
"You!" Daoist Duobao gritted his teeth in hatred. He did not want to apologize, but he could not bear to part with the two treasures.
"Hesitating, huh … Fine, I'll help you make up your mind."
Ling Xian chuckled. The Heaven Stealing Heavenly Hand reappeared. Then, a palm sized incense burner appeared in his hand.
Everyone's eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets. One by one, they all stood up and took two steps back.
This was simply too frightening. Stealthily stealing treasures, anyone would be terrified of such a thing.
"You are going too far!" The Daoist of Duo Bao was so angry he was about to cry.
How was Ling Xian helping him make a decision? He was obviously forcing him to apologize!
Yet, the Daoist of Duo Bao was helpless.
He finally understood that Ling Xian wanted him to apologize. If he didn't agree, his storage pouch would most likely be emptied by him!
"Have you made up your mind? If not, I can help you again. "
Ling Xian chuckled. The ruler, the seal, and the incense burner — three extraordinary treasures — circled around him, making him look mysterious and strange like a demon.
This made the Daoist of Duo Bao want to cry but no tears came out.
He's seen bullies, but he's never seen bullies like this. But, who could he blame?
Ling Xian had told him to stop time and time again. If he didn't say those harsh words, why would Ling Xian use the Heaven Stealing Heavenly Hand?
"No need, I don't need your help."
The Daoist of Duo Bao was about to cry. He finally realized that he couldn't do anything to Ling Xian. Other than apologizing, he had no other choice.
At that moment, he said with a sobbing tone, "I was wrong. Please forgive me and return my treasures to me."
Hearing this, everyone had a look of disbelief. They didn't think that the arrogant Daoist of Duo Bao would admit defeat.
But after thinking about it, they understood.
If it was them, they would be helpless against Ling Xian, who would steal their treasures at the slightest disagreement!
"I'll keep the gourd to store my wine. I'll return these three treasures to you."
Ling Xian said softly and threw the ruler, seal, and cauldron to the Daoist of Duo Bao.
"No, no, no. As long as you promise not to steal my treasures again." The Daoist of Duo Bao shook his head. He didn't dare to take it.
"Take it. If you don't provoke me, I won't steal your treasures again."
Ling Xian's expression was calm. Though the ruler, seal, and cauldron were extraordinary, they were nothing in his eyes.
"Thank you."
The Daoist of Duo Bao carefully glanced at Ling Xian. Seeing that his expression didn't seem fake, he put away his treasures.
Then, he had the urge to burst into tears.
What was going on? He was obviously bullied by Ling Xian, yet he had to thank him. Who wouldn't be angry?
"You are welcome to cause trouble for me at any time. But before that, you better be mentally prepared." Ling Xian glared at the Daoist of Duo Bao.
"I won't dare, I won't dare." The Daoist of Duo Bao shook his head like a rattle drum.
He finally understood that he couldn't afford to provoke Ling Xian. If he didn't want to be poor, it was best not to provoke him.
Everyone thought so too.
Ling Xian's methods were too strange. His ability to steal treasures without a sound was enough to make them shudder.
"It's good that you don't dare. Come and sit." Ling Xian smiled.
"How am I worthy of sharing a table with you?"
The Daoist of Duo Bao squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "I think I should leave."
"If I ask you to sit, then sit down. Why are you talking so much?"
Ling Xian glared at the Daoist of Duo Bao, scaring him out of his wits. He quickly moved a chair over and sat across from him.
"You must be a local tyrant of the City of Zhi Ge."
Ling Xian wiped off his smile. The reason why he asked the Daoist of Duo Bao to sit down was because he wanted to find out about the lost inheritance.
"I don't dare call myself a local tyrant. I can only say that I understand the City of Zhi Ge better." The Daoist of Duo Bao considered his words and said carefully.
"It's good that you understand. I want to know, has any land in the City of Zhi Ge disappeared?" Ling Xian asked in a low voice.
"Disappeared land?" The Daoist of Duo Bao froze, not understanding.
"It's the kind of place that has existed for a long time but suddenly disappeared." Ling Xian explained. He knew that this was a difficult question and he didn't have much hope.
After all, the City of Zhi Ge was vast and after so many years, even if some land mysteriously disappeared, it wouldn't be a big deal.
"You are not joking, are you? Every day, there are powerful people moving mountains and filling seas, changing the landscape. Who would pay attention to such a small matter?" The Daoist of Duo Bao smiled bitterly, thinking that Ling Xian was playing with him.
"There are powerful people changing the landscape every day …" Ling Xian frowned, feeling even more troubled.
If only a small amount of land had disappeared, they might have been able to find some clues. However, the landscape was changing every day, so it was very difficult to do so.
