After the monarchs followed Ao Seng into the treasury, they hurriedly looked around, not wanting to miss a single corner.
Although the treasury was big, there were still many things inside. Everyone couldn't see everything at a glance.
After walking for nearly a hundred meters from the entrance of the hall, they still didn't see the shadow of the treasure. This made the monarchs' hearts sink to the bottom of the valley.
At this moment, the most complacent person was none other than Ao Seng. As long as he could prove that there was no trace of the treasure in the treasury, then the life and death of the Wind Origin Country would be completely at his mercy. Thinking of this, he felt a burst of joy.
Luo Ping had already noticed the change in Ao Seng's expression. He knew what he was planning, but he didn't care. He would let him be complacent for a moment. After a while, he wouldn't be so happy anymore.
Luo Ping finally made his move. With a flick of his right hand, a green light wrapped around a yellow Qi ball shot towards a remote corner of the treasury without anyone noticing.
When he was making his move, Luo Ping had been using his spiritual sense to closely monitor the movements of the people around him. However, they were all focused on looking for the treasure, so no one paid attention to him.
After walking half the distance, Ao Seng finally couldn't help but open his mouth.
"It seems that some people's conspiracy won't succeed. It's better to admit it as soon as possible so as to avoid embarrassment and save everyone the trouble of looking for the treasure."
"Haha, is Ao Seng threatening us? Or are you saying that you don't dare to continue looking for the treasure? "
Luo Ping retorted with equal harshness.
"Humph, do you think this monarch is afraid? As long as everyone is not afraid of the trouble, then let's continue looking. "
Ao Seng didn't intend to say anything. Now that he saw this brat in front of him, he wanted to kill him. Only by killing him could he dispel the hatred in his heart.
The monarchs didn't care about their quarrel and continued to look for the treasure in the treasury.
"Hey, there are so many boxes here, and they are sealed so tightly. Could it be that they are the treasure?"
A monarch of a small country found a row of boxes in a remote corner. All of them were sealed. Moreover, there were some scattered pieces of soil on the ground around the boxes. This immediately made him think of the treasure.
"Everyone, come and take a look. Don't these boxes look suspicious?"
The monarch immediately asked the others to check it out because he knew that the monarchs of Xiang State and Jinshui State were the ones who could make the decisions.
After the various kings and their followers gathered around, they all had the same thought as the king of the small country. This should be the treasure.
When Ao Sen saw these chests, his entire face turned green. He clearly remembered that this place was originally empty. Although it had been used to store treasures, it had never been put to use.
Now that so many sealed boxes had appeared out of nowhere, Ao Sen immediately realized that the situation was not good.
He immediately winked at a general behind him. The general behind him was indeed someone who had followed him for many years. He immediately understood Ao Sen's meaning. After nodding, he quietly bypassed the crowd and left the treasury.
However, they did not realize that a pair of eyes had already seen through their secret movements.
"Men, open all these boxes."
Sure enough, it was Ba Tianhai who gave the order to open the chests.
Immediately, a few people walked out from the crowd and tore open the seals on the chests. Then, they opened the sealed boxes.
As soon as the chests were opened, they emitted a golden light that was blinding to the eyes. Only then did the crowd realize that the chests were filled with gold pieces. All of them were of high quality and extremely pure.
The value of a chest of gold pieces was equivalent to one-third of the wealth of a state. However, there were more than a hundred chests of gold pieces here. The total value was immeasurable.
Even a country as strong as Elephant Country only had eighteen states. The treasures and wealth here were almost twice the wealth of their entire country.
At this moment, more than ten chests had already been opened. The golden light shone on everyone's face, and all of them revealed greedy expressions.
Even though these monarchs had seen countless riches, their greed was limitless. Their greed could not be extinguished. Now that they were faced with such a huge temptation, they believed that not many people in the world could resist it.
"Monarch Ao Sen, do you still want to explain?"
Luo Ping's words instantly broke the silence. Everyone looked at Ao Sen.
"At this point, what's the use of explaining? Although I don't know how you did it, what's done can't be undone. Let's just make the best of it. "
Monarch Ao Sen looked at the chests of gold pieces with shining eyes.
He never dreamed that the treasures that he had painstakingly searched for would all be in his Great Ao State's treasury. Even if he was framed, he would accept it.
As long as he obtained this batch of treasures, what would he be afraid of? At that time, his wealth would reach the heavens and he would have a strong army. In the future, it would not be a problem for him to unify the northern region, or even the entire Hong Tian Continent.
The temptation of the treasures had completely lost his mind and aroused his ambition.
"Ao Sen, what do you mean?"
Hong Tai, the monarch of Jinshui Country, asked in a deep voice. He heard something unusual from Ao Sen's words.
"What do I mean? Do you still need to ask? Isn't this kid's scheme to prove that his country has embezzled the treasures? Not only did he bring out witnesses and evidence, but he even found the treasures in his country's treasury. I am truly convinced. However … "
Ao Sen suddenly changed the topic and revealed an evil smile.
"Since the treasures have already entered my country's treasury, no matter how they got in, don't even think about transporting them out. I don't want to explain and I'm too lazy to explain. Just take it that I have embezzled the treasures. So what? "
At this moment, Ao Sen no longer had any scruples. He no longer put the people in front of him in his eyes. Now that he had the treasures, he no longer cared about these people.
"Ao Sen, you better think clearly. Don't lose your life because of a moment of greed. Don't ruin the Great Ao State's empire."
Ba Tianhai, the monarch of Xiang Country, advised. On the surface, he was thinking for Ao Sen, but in fact, he was thinking for his own safety. He did not want Ao Sen to do something crazy in a moment of anger.
However, the more one feared something, the more it would happen.
"Don't think about it. Today, none of you will leave. All of you will die. Aren't you greedy? If you aren't, why start a war? Why come to your country's treasury? Isn't it for the treasures? Since that's the case, then leave your lives and accompany the treasures forever! Men! "
With Ao Sen's order, countless generals immediately rushed in from outside the treasury. They were all high-level cultivators. Just the Martial Lords alone numbered close to a hundred. It was almost three times the number of other countries.
As for the other levels, there were even over two hundred. It seemed that Ao Sen was determined to catch all the monarchs in one net.
When the high-level cultivators appeared, they immediately surrounded them. However, they did not immediately attack. They were waiting for Ao Sen's orders.
"Ao Sen, don't go too far. Be careful of retribution and a horrible death."
The monarch of the Wu Country was not afraid at all and started to curse.
"Hahaha, I truly couldn't tell that you, Ji Chen, also had such a stubborn side. Fine, I'll start with you."
Just as Ao Sen finished speaking, a Martial Lord immediately attacked. His target was the monarch of the Wu Country, Ji Chen, who just spoke.
The Martial Lord's speed was extremely quick. With a flash, he appeared in front of Ji Chen. Without any hesitation, he threw out a palm, planning to end his life.
Ji Chen was the monarch of a country, so naturally, he was a person who had seen many storms. His cultivation also reached the Great General level, so his mental strength was not ordinary.
Although he knew the attack of a Martial Lord was very difficult to dodge, he still tried to use a bodily technique, planning to take a gamble. After all, sitting and waiting for death was not his style.
However, just as he moved, he discovered a person blocking in front of him.
Looking closely, it was actually that young man. He was tall, had a strong physique, and his back was like a towering mountain as he stood there proudly.
Not bad. The speed of a Martial Lord was very quick. However, there was a person who was even faster than him.
Luo Ping had already released his Spiritual Awareness and was monitoring every single movement of everyone in the treasury. When the Martial Lord made his move, he already detected it.
Without thinking too much, he immediately moved to block the attack. When the Martial Lord's palm strike hit the air, he suddenly appeared in front of the Rooster Nation's ruler.
Although the Martial Lord was shocked, his descending palm did not stop. It still solidly landed on Luo Ping's body.
Without any sound, without any movement, it was as if that palm hit cotton. It did not make any sound.
However, the Martial Lord realized the situation was bad. He quickly planned to pull back his palm, but he discovered that he could not, as if he was sucked in.
Luo Ping revolved the true energy in his entire body and tightly sucked him in. He was simply unable to leave.
The Martial Lord immediately extended his other hand, clenched it into a fist, and fiercely punched towards Luo Ping's face. However, the situation was the same as before. Although his fist touched the skin of Luo Ping's face, it could not advance in the slightest. He could not even pull it back.
Only at that moment did he truly realize the strength of the person in front of him. He no longer cared about anything else and started to call for help.
"This person knows some crooked sorcery and sucked my hands. Quickly come and help!"
Those words immediately caused the surrounding people to react. Everything that just happened happened in a blink. The high-level cultivators that came in from the Great Proud Nation even thought that their companions already subdued the ignorant young man who dared to block their path. They never would have thought that it was a situation like that.
Immediately, two more Martial Lords arrived next to Luo Ping with a flash. They were going to attack, but they were stunned by a warning and didn't dare to act rashly.
In a moment of carelessness, Ao Seng actually forgot Luo Ping's strength. Only when Luo Ping attacked did he suddenly wake up.
"Careful. This young man can compress his true energy and release it."
