Xiahou Hongxiang said, "I wouldn't dare. Your Highness is the princess of the kingdom. All the treasures of the kingdom belong to the royal family of Xuanwu. How could he steal the spirit stones from the vault?"
Zhao Xingyue said, "Then why did you bring him here?"
Xiahou Hongxiang said, "Mr. Qin was not there when the vault was stolen just now. I think he is very suspicious, so I want to ask Mr. Qin for confirmation."
The little witch cried, "Nonsense, the little brother has been with us all the time. How could he steal your spirit stones?"
Zhao Xingyue also said with a sullen face, "General Xiahou, Mr. Qin is my friend. It is impossible for him to steal your spirit stones."
Xiahou Hongxiang could give in to other things, but now it was about the millions of spirit stones in the vault, so he naturally would not give in.
He said, "Your Highness, when the vault was stolen, Mr. Qin was missing, so I think we should search it and help your friend clear the suspicion."
After hearing this, Zhao Xingyue also thought that Qin Haodong was not there at that time. Did he really steal the vault of Pegasus City?
But the more it was like this, the more determined she was to protect Qin Haodong. Not to mention the vault of Pegasus City, she would stand by Qin Haodong even if the vault of the entire Xuanwu Kingdom was robbed.
"General Xiahou, it is your dereliction of duty that the vault was stolen. You should catch the thief as soon as possible, instead of coming here to slander my friend.
As long as I am here today, no one is allowed to touch Brother Qin. "
Then she stood up and stood in front of Qin Haodong.
"Yes, no one is allowed to slander Brother Qin …"
"Senior brother must have been wronged …"
The other girls also gathered and protected Qin Haodong in the middle. They stared at Xiahou Hongxiang fiercely, as if they were ready to attack if there was any disagreement.
Their thoughts were the same as Zhao Xingyue's. They all thought that Qin Haodong might have stolen the vault, but the more it was like this, the more they wanted to protect him.
Seeing the girls' reaction, Xiahou Hongxiang was even more certain of his guess, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
"Your Highness, if you insist on protecting him, then don't blame me for offending you."
Zhao Xingyue shouted sternly, "How dare you! Do you want to attack this Queen?"
"This subordinate does not dare to disrespect the princess, but this concerns the wealth of the kingdom. This subordinate must fulfill his duty, or else I will not be able to answer to His Majesty the King."
Xiahou Hongxiang spoke righteously and put on a posture of loyalty to the kingdom. He then waved his hand at Jiang Bin behind him. "Search this place."
"Understood!"
Jiang Bin agreed and immediately commanded his men to surround Zhao Xingyue and the others.
Tu Jiaojiao, Murong Jinghong, and the others also unsheathed their swords. A great battle was about to break out.
"Everyone, calm down."
Qin Haodong stepped forward and walked to Zhao Xingyue's side. "Your Highness, a clear conscience is not afraid of a crooked shadow. Since General Xiahou wants to search, let him search."
"This …" Zhao Xingyue hesitated and said, "But I will never allow anyone to slander my friend."
As she spoke, she looked at Qin Haodong in confusion, her eyes full of inquiry.
That meant that if Qin Haodong really stole from the vault, he couldn't let him search it no matter what.
"Your Highness, don't worry. Whatever is missing from the vault has nothing to do with me." Qin Haodong said as he looked at Xiahou Hongxiang and Jiang Bin. "You two actually suspect that I stole from the vault. You can search it if you want, but you can't doubt my innocence for no reason."
Xiahou Hongxiang said, "What do you want?"
Qin Haodong said indifferently, "If I don't let you two search it, you must suspect that I stole from the vault. If I let you search it like this, I will be a little unwilling. How about we make a bet?"
Xiahou Hongxiang said, "What do you want to bet, Mr. Qin?"
Qin Haodong said, "If you two find the Spirit Stones you are looking for on me, I will immediately surrender and my life will be yours. You can kill me or cut me up.
If you can't find it, you can take out 20,000 top-grade Spirit Stones as compensation for my reputation. What does General Xiahou think? "
"This …"
Seeing Qin Haodong's confident look, Xiahou Hongxiang was also a little hesitant. Could it be that the Spirit Stones in the vault were really not stolen by this guy?
Jiang Bin stepped forward and whispered, "General Xiahou, this guy is bluffing. It's obvious that he is bluffing. The Spirit Stones in the vault are 100% stolen by him."
Xiahou Hongxiang gritted his teeth. He really didn't want to have a head-on conflict with Zhao Xingyue unless it was absolutely necessary. Finally, he said, "Since Mr. Qin wants to bet, then I'll bet with you."
Qin Haodong said, "Well, General Xiahou, please take out 20,000 top-grade Spirit Stones and put them with the princess first. Please be our witness."
"Okay!"
After saying that, Xiahou Hongxiang took out 20,000 top-grade Spirit Stones from his Storage Ring and gave them to Zhao Xingyue.
"Your Highness, this is a fair agreement between Mr. Qin and me. If we really find something later, please don't embarrass me."
Zhao Xingyue glanced at Qin Haodong and saw him nodding to her, so she said, "Well, I'll be fair to you."
Xiahou Hongxiang turned to look at Qin Haodong and said, "Mr. Qin, it's your turn."
There were millions of top-grade Spirit Stones in the vault, like a small mountain. He naturally didn't think that Qin Haodong would take them with him, so they must be in the Storage Ring.
Qin Haodong smiled slightly, took off the Storage Ring from his hand, raised his hand, and threw it to him.
When he had finished looting the treasury, he had already predicted that this would happen. Not only had he placed all the spirit stones into the Seventh Tier Pagoda, but he had also transferred all the items in his Storage Ring into the pagoda.
At this time, there was nothing in his Storage Ring except for a few hundred top-grade Spirit Stones.
Xiahou Hongxiang took the Storage Ring, glanced at Qin Haodong first, and then scanned the ring with his Divine Sense.
When he saw the result, his expression suddenly changed. There was nothing in it. Could it be that Qin Haodong really didn't steal it?
Seeing Xiahou Hongxiang's expression, Jiang Bin already knew the result, and his expression also became extremely ugly.
Qin Haodong smiled and said, "General Xiahou, if you still don't believe me, you can search my body."
As he spoke, he shook his sleeves and patted his pockets.
Jiang Bin said, "You must have stolen the vault. You must have hidden the things!"
Qin Haodong looked at him and said, "General Jiang, what you said is not very appropriate. You said that I stole it without any evidence. I also said that you stole it! "
"You …"
Jiang Bin's face turned red with anger, and he was about to fight. Zhao Xingyue shouted sternly, "Jiang Bin, what are you doing? We just agreed on a bet. Do you think that I, the notary, is just a decoration here? "
Originally, she was on Qin Haodong's side, and now she was even more confident.
Xiahou Hongxiang stopped Jiang Bin, stepped forward, and said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness. We misunderstood just now, and now we apologize to Mr. Qin."
He returned the Storage Ring to Qin Haodong and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin. I've disturbed you. I admit that I lost the bet, and the 20,000 top-grade Spirit Stones are yours."
After that, he bowed to Zhao Xingyue again, and then left the courtyard with his people.
After returning to the General's Mansion, Jiang Bin said, "General Xiahou, are we just going to let it go? In my opinion, the vault was stolen by that guy, but he hid the Spirit Stones. Maybe they are in Zhao Xingyue's ring. "
Xiahou Hongxiang said with a gloomy expression, "That guy is indeed suspicious, but have you ever thought that this may also be done by the people of the Ghost King Sect?"
"This …"
Jiang Bin's expression froze. The Ghost King Sect was powerful, and if they wanted to do it, they did have the ability to do so.
He said, "General Xiahou, what should we do now? Are we going to let that guy go?"
Xiahou Hongxiang said, "Of course we won't let him go so easily. According to my estimation, someone from King City should come to pick up Zhao Xingyue tomorrow. As soon as they leave the range of Pegasus City, we will immediately take action.
"Not only will we kill Qin Haodong, but we will also take all their Storage Rings. At that time, whether they stole our Spirit Stones or their Spirit Stones, they will all be ours."
Jiang Bin immediately gave a thumbs up and said with a flattering face, "General Xiahou is really talented and bold. I admire you very much."
Xiahou Hongxiang said, "Immediately arrange for people to seal the city. Everyone can only enter, but not leave. We can't let Qin Haodong escape.
"At the same time, strictly investigate the people of the Ghost King Sect. If they really did it, we must take back our Spirit Stones no matter what."
Jiang Bin nodded and said, "Yes, General. I will arrange it now."
In the yard, after Xiahou Hongxiang left, everyone gathered together to discuss for a while, and then they all went back to their rooms to rest.
There were many rooms in the yard, so Qin Haodong went back to the room he had arranged for him.
First, he found a skeleton warrior from the army of white bones, put his clothes on it, and let it lie on the bed to sleep. Then, he entered the Seventh Pagoda alone.
All the materials he had brought from Earth were placed on the sixth floor, and the looted top-grade Spirit Stones were placed on the seventh floor, which made the Spiritual Qi here more and more intense.
Now, Xiahou Hongxiang and the others were eyeing him covetously, and the people of the Ghost King Sect could appear at any time. His top priority was to improve his cultivation.
He sat cross-legged in the middle of the pagoda and began to run his Qi to break through to the Peak of Void Training Realm.
According to his current cultivation method, it was indeed dozens or even hundreds of times faster than ordinary people. Once he succeeded, his power would be unparalleled and he would be invincible among his peers. However, the consumption of Spirit Stones was also extremely huge.
When he opened his eyes again, the Genuine Qi in his body was surging, and he had reached the Peak of Void Training Realm.
But when he looked around, there were only a few thousand top-grade Spirit Stones left from the original millions of them.
Qin Haodong felt a headache. He had just reached the Peak of Void Training Realm, and he had used so many top-grade Spirit Stones. What about the Form Synthesis Realm? It seemed that he could only pin his hopes on the Spirit Spring in Xuanwu Kingdom.
After finishing his cultivation, he returned to his room.
The next morning, after breakfast, the little she-devil said, "It's so boring here. We're in Pegasus City, but we can't go anywhere. What's the difference between us and criminals?"
Zhao Xingyue said, "There's nothing we can do. Xiahou Hongxiang is afraid that we'll run away. This place is heavily guarded, and we can't get out even if we want to."
The other girls also had a look of regret on their faces. Obviously, no one wanted to stay here motionlessly.
Qin Haodong said, "If you want to get out, I have a way."
The little she-devil cried excitedly, "What good idea do you have, little brother? Tell us quickly."
Qin Haodong smiled slightly, "They won't let us out, but we can sneak out!"
