At the same time, all the communication jade tokens of the teams began to warm slightly, transmitting a message:
"Qi Xiao and his team have discovered a Golden Rat cave and a large number of jade tokens at the bottom of the northern entrance valley. They seek cooperation."
In the next moment, this message was immediately erased by someone, as if it had been a mere illusion.
Qi Xiao is the most cunning among them. If there’s any benefit to be gained, he will surely keep it all for himself—there’s no way we would get any of it. We can’t go; there must be some trick involved!
Hmph, what can we do if we don’t go?
All the jade tokens nearby have already been snatched up by that brat Qi Xiao!
If we don’t rob him, we’ll have to steal from other teams.
Are you sure that in the remaining time, we’ll encounter enough teams and still manage to defeat them?
This is an obvious trap. Right now, everyone lacks jade tokens, and those with poor scores can still rely on the arena matches to maintain their rankings.
But if someone really goes there and gains something, that would be a different story.
If you don’t go, someone else will!
The fact that Qi Xiao retracted the message so quickly raises the possibility that he accidentally sent it to everyone. If that’s the case, Qi Xiao’s situation must be dire.
Why are you all so worried? I have nothing right now; what difference does it make if I go? Does Qi Xiao really dare to kill us now?
Meanwhile, countless similar conversations echoed throughout various corners of the valley.
A round-faced female disciple hesitated before speaking up, "Sister Linglong, do you think we should go or not?"
Ji Linglong stood atop a rock and scanned her surroundings. Besides her own team, several other teams had gradually gathered here.
After discussing it, they felt that since they were going anyway, they might as well join forces to rob Qi Xiao’s team of their jade tokens and then distribute them among themselves.
Of course, they wouldn’t admit that they were scared off by Qi Xiao.
There are only a few people in Qi Xiao's team; how could he possibly deal with so many of us at once?
Exactly! Sister Linglong, Qi Xiao is too arrogant; we must teach him a lesson!
Yes! He managed to use poisonous bees against us once; how could he possibly pull off such a trick again?
However, it turned out he could.
As everyone marched into the cave in a grand procession, they were met with pairs of eerie green eyes staring back at them. The crowd couldn’t help but swallow hard.
They wanted to turn around, only to find that the entrance was blocked by an unending tide of golden mice.
One disciple couldn't help but cry out, "Qi Xiao has betrayed me!"
Was it not enough for him to die alone? Why did he have to drag us into this? What deep-seated grudge could we possibly have against him?
From deep within the cave, a voice echoed lazily.
"What are you talking about, my fellow disciple? This is called sharing blessings and bearing hardships together! If the rest of you are able, why not lend me a hand?"
"Pah! You must be dreaming!"
"Shameless!"
Qi Xiao shrugged helplessly. After all, once they were in here, if they didn't join him in exterminating these creatures, they wouldn't be getting out either.
He raised his voice again, "Have pity on us, my fellow brothers and sisters! You arrive only to face so many golden mice; your anger must be boiling over, right? Don't be mad! Once we finish off these pests, I'll take you all to loot the treasures of the golden mice."
"If that doesn't work, once we manage to retreat, we can call Elder Chang over."
"What?"
"You want to call the elder over because you can't handle them, and you still want to plunder their treasures?"
"Since that's the case, why not let this group of detestable human cultivators die here!"
The particularly arrogant golden mouse squeaked angrily twice, and the tide of mice surged even more violently. The group had no choice but to draw their weapons and fight back in frustration.
Ji Linglong was so furious that her teeth were clenched. They had thought they were well-prepared; how had they fallen into Qi Xiao's trap?
That Qi Xiao truly deserved to die!
She drew her whip and swung it fiercely, clearing a small area from the tide of mice. However, more golden mice quickly filled the gap, only to be swept away again.
Ji Linglong shouted loudly, "Once we kill this group of thieving mice, I will lead you all to take down Qi Xiao!"
Instantly, the morale of the group surged.
The golden mice stared with wide eyes.
"Listen! Is this even human speech?"
They had invaded their home and were trying to steal their treasures while calling them thieving mice.
This was intolerable!
It was essential to teach those thieves a lesson; otherwise, the frustration in their hearts would remain unresolved. Tong Liu felt like crying without tears. "Senior Brother Qi, why do I feel like staying here means death, and going out also leads to death?"
Qi Xiao patted her shoulder and quietly made a gesture before pulling out a string of firecrackers and handing them to her. Taking advantage of everyone's distraction, Tong Liu lit the firecrackers and threw them into the mouth of the cave where the Xuanbing Jiao resided.
In the next moment, the firecrackers exploded, sending water splashing everywhere. The Xuanbing Jiao leaped out of the river, expressing its displeasure by repeatedly crashing into the cave entrance. The ground shook violently, causing panic among everyone.
Not only did the disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect struggle to keep their footing, but even the golden mice clinging to the walls fell one after another due to the tremors. Qi Xiao and his group quietly slipped into one of the less crowded tunnels.
Just as everyone was about to react and prepare for another fight, someone suddenly screamed, "Qi Xiao ran away!"
Ji Linglong glanced back and saw the empty space, infuriated as she lashed her whip. Just as she was about to rush over, the Xuanbing Jiao lowered its head and bit something in the water before crashing into the cave again with great force.
In the next second, layers of golden symbols appeared on the stone wall, which soon began to crack and fall off. Everyone was alarmed.
"Run! This Xuanbing Jiao is about to break through to the Infant stage; it can no longer be contained by the Spirit Locking Array!"
In a small courtyard where two people were enjoying tea, their expressions changed simultaneously as they stood up abruptly. Elder Chang's face was serious. "You go call for help; I’ll head out first!"
Elder Huang knew that his combat abilities were inferior to those of other Infant stage elders, so he immediately turned and flew towards Qingyuan Peak.
"Master, it's bad! The Xuanbing Jiao in Thunderwind Valley has experienced a sudden surge in power and is about to break through to the Infant stage; it can no longer be contained by the Spirit Locking Array!"
Fan Wuyou's expression changed slightly as he stepped forward and spoke in a deep voice. "How could this happen?"
He had personally witnessed Elder Zhao from the Talismans Hall set up that Spirit Locking Array. When they trapped that Xuanbing Jiao, it had just broken through to the peak of Gold stage. How could it have suddenly surged a small realm in just over a month?
Recalling what happened last time in Insect Valley, Fan Wuyou's expression grew even darker. Could there be something strange behind this?
He looked at Elder Huang, who was anxious beyond measure, and softened his tone slightly. "Don't worry; I will bring people over right now."
Fan Wuyou came to the Talismans Hall to speak with Zhao Fengming. He had heard that Zhao had made a mistake while trapping the Xuanbing Jiao last time, and without hesitation, he stood up immediately.
The two of them didn't even have time to summon their flying boats and instead took to the skies on their magical tools.
Fan Wuyou let out a deep sigh; this situation was indeed strange. Had he known it would come to this, he wouldn't have allowed that group of disciples to go out.
