Inside the bamboo forest, the elder in black's breathing hastened and he was extremely excited.
What could he do? The True Dragon Key was related to whether or not he could open the Ancestral Dragon's Treasure. Who wouldn't be excited?
At that moment, the elder in black swung his palm in an attempt to snatch the key.
His movements were extremely fast, especially when he was not far away. He was unbelievably fast.
However, Thieving the World was even faster.
The moment she stepped into the bamboo forest, she was on guard against the elder in black. Therefore, she reacted in time and dodged this palm with the Boundless Step.
"Your reaction is quite fast."
The elder in black squinted his eyes, "Give me the True Dragon Key."
"Remove the curse in my body first." Thieving the World's expression was cold. She was not an idiot, how could she give the key to the elder first?
"Give me the key first." The elder in black frowned as coldness flashed in his eyes.
"Do you think I am an idiot?"
Thieving the World snickered, "If I give you the key first, will you remove the curse in my body?"
"Little girl, you are quite smart. But do you have a choice?"
"In another ten days, your life force will be severed. Even the Immortal Medicine of Immortality will not be able to save you."
The elder in black sneered, "Other than submitting, you have no other choice."
"Since I am going to die anyway, why should I submit?"
Thieving the World's expression was cold, "If you want the Ancestral Dragon's Treasure, remove the curse in my body. Or else, I will leave with the key."
"You think you can leave?" The elder in black sneered. Many arrays appeared and rays of light shot into the sky.
"You think a few arrays can stop me?"
Thieving the World laughed. Though she did not obtain the true inheritance of the Thief Immortal, she obtained the Boundless Step that could break all seals.
At once, she took a step forward. With the Dao of Heaven and Earth, she instantly passed through the array.
The elder in black's expression darkened, "I have underestimated you."
"Stop talking nonsense. Rather than becoming your slave, I would rather die."
Thieving the World's expression was frosty, "If you don't remove the curse in my body first, I will leave with the key and you will never get the Ancestral Dragon's Treasure!"
"I didn't expect that you would have the courage to perish indiscriminately." The black-clothed old man's face sank as he fell into a dilemma.
After a moment of silence, he looked at Thieving World coldly and said: "Fine, I will first remove the curse in your body."
Hearing this, the Thief of the World smiled. Ling Xian, who was hiding in the clouds, smiled as well.
He had already expected the black-robed old man to agree because the Ancestral Dragon's treasure was too important. Even if the Thief of the World made a more excessive request, the black-robed old man would not reject it.
"Hurry up. I'll give you the True Dragon Key once the curse is removed."
Thieving World smiled faintly. She had to give the key to the black-robed old man because she needed him to find the Ancestral Dragon's treasure.
"Little girl, you better not lie to me. Otherwise, I will make you wish you were dead." The black-robed old man looked deeply at Thieving World as he formed a hand seal and chanted.
Immediately, the center of the Thieving World's brows lit up as black gas surged out and dissipated like smoke.
After a while, the space between her eyebrows no longer glowed, and the black Qi no longer surged out.
"It's finally gone …" Thieving World let out a breath of turbid air. He was in high spirits and his face was glowing.
Ling Xian no longer worried.
The curse on the Thief of the World had completely disappeared. After a few days of rest, he would be back to normal.
"You can make your move now."
The Dragon King grinned. He used his Qi to isolate this place. With the black-robed old man's cultivation level, there was no way he could detect it.
"Not yet."
Ling Xian shook his head. His plan was to follow the old man and find the Ancestral Dragon's treasure. If he makes a move now, the old man may die with him.
"Then you can tell me the location of the Ancestral Dragon's treasure now, right?" The Dragon King smiled gently.
"Sorry, I lied."
Ling Xian softly sighed, "I don't know the location of the Ancestral Dragon's treasure."
Hearing this, the Dragon King's smile disappeared, "You lied to me?"
"To increase my stakes and get the True Dragon Key, I had to lie."
Ling Xian bitterly smiled, "I am willing to shoulder the Dragon King's anger. Please don't blame me."
"Not bad acting. You even tricked me."
The Dragon King stared at Ling Xian and shook his head, "How many years has it been since someone dared to lie to me? I cannot believe I was tricked by a young man."
"I had no other choice. Please forgive me, Dragon King."
Ling Xian apologized, "Though I lied to you, you will for sure find the Ancestral Dragon's treasure."
Then, he shifted his gaze to the old man in black.
This person will for sure go and open the Ancestral Dragon's treasure. As long as he follows him, he will be able to see it.
"Nice plan. Oh well, I will forgive you for tricking me." The Dragon King chuckled. Though Ling Xian lied to him, the result won't change.
The Ancestral Dragon's treasure will be his for sure.
"Thank you, Dragon King." Ling Xian smiled. Not only did he thank the Dragon King for understanding, he also thanked the Dragon King for lending him the True Dragon Key.
"Now, can you give me the key?" The old man in black's eyes were deep and cold.
At the same time, he manipulated his Qi and waited.
"Take it." The Thief of the World said softly and threw the key to the old man.
This surprised the old man. He thought the Thief of the World would go back on his words. He didn't think he would be so happy.
However, he didn't think too much about it.
Not even in his dreams did he think that the Thief of the World would cooperate with the dragon kind and lure him into the abyss.
"I finally got you …"
Looking at the gold key in his hand, the old man in black's eyes were heated and he found it hard to control himself.
A few decades ago, he found out the location of the Ancestral Dragon's treasure but didn't have the key. Now that he finally got it, how could he not be excited?
"Remember, one day, I will send you on your way." The Thief of the World's gaze was cold. He knew that day was right before his eyes.
Once the old man in black gets to the Ancestral Dragon's treasure, he will lose his value. The Dragon King can kill him with one look.
"Haha, do you have the ability?"
"After I open the Ancestral Dragon's treasure, my capabilities will increase by leaps and bounds. If you want revenge, you can do it in your next life."
The old man in black laughed out loud, his face full of anticipation.
The Ancestral Dragon was a being comparable to the Undying Immortal King. The treasures he left behind in the world, even if one thought with their toes, would be shocking.
Even those close to the Dao would go crazy!
"Just you wait and see." The Thief of the World glared at the old man in black. Then, he stepped on the Limitless Godly Steps and disappeared.
"Sadly, I cannot make her stay."
The old man in black squinted his eyes. If it was possible, he didn't want the Thief of the World to leave. But he didn't have that ability.
"Oh well, if she wants to leave, then leave. The most important thing now is to get the Ancestral Dragon's treasure."
The old man in black mumbled to himself. Then, he began to fly towards the East.
Ling Xian and the Dragon King moved as well and followed behind this person.
However, they didn't see the Ancestral Dragon's treasure.
This person was very smart. He was afraid that the Thief of the World was following him, so he didn't go straight to the Ancestral Dragon's treasure.
If it was a normal cultivator, he would've noticed them. But how could an eighth level cultivator notice Ling Xian and the Dragon King?
