Chapter 1098: Chapter 1098: Didn’t You Say It Was Absolutely Safe? Chapter 1098: Chapter 1098: Didn’t You Say It Was Absolutely Safe? Boom~~ Boom~~~
Each stronghold shook violently, trembling incessantly.
The imprisoned cultivators, after their mana was restored, tried to directly blast the strongholds apart to break free. They had been pent up for far too long and didn’t want to stay a moment longer.
However, each stronghold was engraved with a Defensive Array, as impregnable as a fortress. For the time being, the cultivators couldn’t break out.
As for this, Huang Xiaolong simply smiled. His whole body suddenly erupted with splendid light, each beam filled with dense and intricate runes.
When these rays of light shone on the outer walls of the strongholds, the various formations engraved upon them immediately crumbled like snow melting under sunlight, dissolving away swiftly.
The next moment~~!
Bang~~! Bang~~! Bang~~!
One by one, the strongholds were torn apart by mana infused with towering rage, bursting and exploding into fragments.
Amidst the smoke of explosives, thousands of cultivators slowly walked out.
Huang Xiaolong saw pairs of eyes filled with hatred and bloodthirst.
At this time, thousands of cultivators all walked towards Huang Xiaolong. No longer invisible, he sat leisurely on a rock with his arms crossed, watching these cultivators calmly.
The thousands of cultivators also saw Huang Xiaolong.
“Little… young friend…” A middle-aged man with a beard, emanating a deep and beast-like presence, and at the mid-stage of Crossing Tribulation, looked at Huang Xiaolong and said, “It was you… it was you who helped us lift the seals, breaking the defenses of these prisons and saving us, right?”
The cultivators could all sense that it was Huang Xiaolong who had taken action.
“If not me, who else?” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.
Upon hearing this, thousands of cultivators all knelt on one knee, tears of gratitude streaming down as they exclaimed, “We thank you, benefactor, for saving our lives!”
These words of gratitude came from the heart.
Indeed, if it wasn’t for Huang Xiaolong who acted today, they would eventually have been killed by Luo Weixiong. Or perhaps they would have been sold off as slaves, an even greater humiliation.
Moreover, the ease with which Huang Xiaolong chanted the incantation to break the seals and effortlessly shattered the stronghold’s defensive formation showed that he possessed exceptional skills! He was a profound and unfathomable expert!
Therefore, these cultivators were genuinely respectful towards Huang Xiaolong.
“You need not be so formal,” Huang Xiaolong said with ease. “I assume you were all imprisoned here for a reason, right?”
“Young friend, we, the people here, do not know each other,” the bearded middle-aged cultivator in the mid-stage of Crossing Tribulation said with some anger. “The reason we are all prisoners under Baiyun City is because… that City Lord Luo Weixiong, is completely wicked! He led his troops to attack our homes, plundered our belongings, slaughtered our kin, and finally, captured us here, perhaps to sell us off like slaves, squeezing out our last bit of value!”
As he spoke, the rage in the eyes of the thousands of cultivators reignited, their murderous aura violent and uncontrollable!
A middle-aged man with a thin face wailed miserably. “My entire family was killed by Luo Weixiong himself~~ I am full of hatred! Every moment, I dream of revenge!”
Hearing these words, Huang Xiaolong nodded and smiled. “Alright, no need to complain any longer, I understand. Now, go settle your grudges and seek your revenge. But remember not to kill the innocent.”
“Young friend, rest assured! We will not kill innocents! We are not bloodthirsty maniacs or ruthless bandits~~ In fact, we… we are all good people, yet we’ve been brought to ruin…” The bearded middle-aged man spoke earnestly. “At the very least, everyone in Baiyun City, starting with Luo Weixiong at the top, has blood-stained hands. Killing them is without fault, they have more than earned their deaths! Slaying them is akin to removing a menace for the people!”
“In that case, go ahead and remove the menace now,” Huang Xiaolong smiled.
“Thank you, benefactor!” The thousands of cultivators shouted in unison once again, then stood up, activated their mana, and flew off in all directions.
Today, Baiyun City would be dominated by slaughter and vengeance!
Watching these furiously vengeful cultivators leave, Huang Xiaolong’s gaze, however, remotely turned towards the direction of the treasure vault.
…
The Treasure Vault!
Luo Weixiong, along with a group of core members from Baiyun City, accompanied by Zheng Miao from the Shushan Sword Sect, arrived at the treasure vault.
Outside the treasure vault, hundreds of elite personnel were standing by in strict formation, guarding it with their lives!
“Greetings, City Lord!” Hundreds of elites shouted in unison.
“There haven’t been any mishaps, right?” Luo Weixiong asked authoritatively.
“Reporting to the City Lord, last night, we increased the number of personnel and kept a close watch over the vault. There wasn’t any sign of disturbance throughout the night,” a leader respectfully reported. “Please rest assured, City Lord, not to mention a person, not even a fly could get into the vault!”
“Hehe~~” Luo Weixiong chuckled. “That’s good to hear.”
After a pause, he turned to Zheng Miao from the Shushan Sword Sect, “Brother Zheng, please, the precious materials that took so much time and effort to collect are all within the vault. They will definitely satisfy the Shushan Sword Sect. On the four walls of this vault, I have drawn defensive formations. From what we see now, these formations haven’t been damaged at all, which means the materials inside are absolutely safe.”
“Brother Luo, you’re indeed meticulous in your work. Good, I will take a look inside,” Zheng Miao responded with a smile.
The crowd made a beeline for the entrance of the treasure vault.
As Luo Weixiong recited a few incantations, the vault’s door made creaking sounds and slowly opened.
However—-
“Hm? Something’s not right!” Zheng Miao was the first to feel a sense of alarm in his heart!
The vault’s door was open, but not a single ray of treasure light leaked out from the inside!
With a thought, Zheng Miao flashed into the vault.
Upon looking inside—-
Empty.
The massive vault was void of anything but air, nothing was left, it was too clean, almost as if it had been plundered by tens of thousands of thieves!
“Absurd! It’s utterly ridiculous!” Zheng Miao was also starting to get angry.
He represented the Shushan Sect to bring back a batch of important natural treasures. It was supposed to be a meritorious deed.
But upon entering the vault, there was nothing!
“City Lord Luo!” Zheng Miao bellowed. “Come in and take a look at once! Hmph! What’s inside your vault? The defensive formation of the vault hasn’t been touched, but there’s nothing inside, could it be that you’re playing me for a fool?”
Footsteps sounded, and Luo Weixiong and the others rushed in as well.
They were dumbfounded upon entering!
“It’s… it’s gone… how… how could it be gone…” Luo Chazi uttered in a dreamlike voice.
After a silence of more than a dozen seconds, Luo Weixiong suddenly let out a heart-wrenching scream–“What happened? Who did it? My… my life savings! Who is it?!”
“Hmph! City Lord Luo, didn’t you say it was absolutely safe?” Zheng Miao was also at the end of his rope.
