Sleeping for a second increases my blood energy. I become the strongest sky-swallowing snake

Cheng Kong spoke a load of crap.

Everyone knew this crap he was spouting.

But some crap, everyone knows, saying it is like farting; not only is it useless, but it's also annoying.

But if you say that's wrong, then you might become a fart.

The outcome is very likely to be kneeling down and begging people to let you go like a fart.

Whether it's the orthodox Xuan Sect or eminent monks of the Buddhist School, they address each other as fellow disciples upon meeting, revealing the thoughts of both forces.

Therefore, even White Dragon King Ao Sanqu didn't dare to say whether Cheng Kong's words were right or wrong.

He could only avoid talking about it and instead said, "Master Cheng Kong, this Xu Chengxian has an unknown origin. The theft of my treasure vault is very likely related to this person!"

"Please, Master Cheng Kong, do not interfere and hand him over to me for disposal."

Ao Sanqu wanted to use the situation to escalate the matter.

The bigger the commotion, the better.

Dealing with Xu Chengxian was his primary goal.

The reason he forced his way out despite Ao Xingchi's obstruction was because he judged from the thief's swift action and the silent opening of the treasure vault that the other party had been planning this for a long time.

By the time he rushed over, the person would have already fled far away.

Most importantly, if these things were lost, the White Dragon clan wouldn't compensate him, and might not even help him find them!

And if he relied solely on himself to retrieve the treasures, the hope was渺茫.

One of the reasons the Yellow Dragon clan tolerated his presence in the Two Realms River was that his own strength was not considered strong, only at the peak of the Demon General realm.

Half of his water soldiers were river demons who cultivated locally in the Two Realms River, and half came from the South Sea.

Some were loyal to the Yellow Dragon clan, and some were loyal to the White Dragon clan. The White Dragon King usually wouldn't interfere. His biggest goal in sitting in this position was to earn cultivation resources for himself and his children and grandchildren.

The Eighth Prince of the South Sea searching his Two Realms River would inevitably损耗the White Dragon King's property, as well as his reputation and prestige.

He was resigned to this loss.

But these were, after all, only minor losses and wouldn't hurt his foundation.

From the day he was arranged in this Two Realms River by the South Sea Little Dragon Palace and the Buddhist School, he became a thorn in the side of the South Sea Yellow Dragon clan.

As long as they closed their eyes, they would feel uncomfortable, and they would try to drive him away at any opportunity.

Compared to this, suffering some small losses was nothing.

This was also expected, and he would earn it back from the White Dragon clan in the future.

But the treasures in his treasure vault, sealed with divine sense imprints, were all valuable and truly belonged to him.

Being stolen was no different from having his heart and liver dug out!

Moreover, until this moment, he sensed that the number of treasures whose divine senses had been erased had reached as many as twenty!

More than half of his hard-earned savings were gone!

Could he just let these treasures be stolen?

No way.

So he attacked Xu Chengxian.

Originally, he was secretly pleased that Cheng Kong didn't immediately take action, but he didn't expect Ling Xiao to ruin things!

Now that he saw Cheng Kong also intervening, he had no choice but to reveal what he was thinking.

He hoped that the monk Cheng Kong would be merciful and help him this once.

"White Dragon King, this statement is rather arbitrary," Cheng Kong said with lowered eyes. "Junior Brother Xu has been by my side all along. How could he have gone to your treasure vault to steal?"

The White Dragon King was, after all, an old demon who had accumulated years of experience. He quickly thought of such a way to break the situation.

He actually decided to capture Xu Chengxian immediately without hesitation.

This move was to drag others into the water and help him find the treasures back together.

Any larger force would care about face and would not want their successor to be associated with theft.

At that time, he would be able to force the cultivators of the Bodhi Institute lineage, as well as the South Sea Little Dragon Palace, to help his White Dragon King solve the treasure vault theft case, catch the thief, and clear Xu Chengxian's name.

Unfortunately, Cheng Kong would definitely not let him have his way.

Because he was also one of the thieves!

Moreover, he couldn't let Xu Chengxian stay in the Two Realms River, otherwise, it would also affect their next plan.

Of course, he had to make his words clearer. Cheng Kong didn't want to completely offend the White Dragon King either.

So he continued, "White Dragon King, Junior Brother Xu has signs of breaking through. If you move against him at this time, I'm afraid something big will happen."

These words were to tell Ao Sanqu, 'I know you want to grab a hostage, but I can't let you do that.'

The reason was that the hostage's situation was special, and once disturbed, he could easily go crazy.

Ao Sanqu's face was ugly.

He had seen that Xu Chengxian had signs of breaking through, so he had acted without hesitation.

Only in this way would the other party not resist, and it would be effortless to capture him.

Unfortunately, he didn't succeed.

At this time, it was a bit difficult to do.

The monk Cheng Kong's cultivation was weaker than his, but the other party was carrying a Buddhist treasure.

If he attacked, he wouldn't gain any advantage.

If he didn't attack, the lost treasures would probably not be found!

Moreover, speaking of which, this Daoist Xu Chengxian had some old grudges with him, and he did indeed have the suspicion of being a thief.

In addition, capturing the other party could also make the Eighth Prince hesitant.

The White Dragon King was faintly worried that the disappearance of the White family's son was a frame-up.

Just at this time, Ao Xingchi opened his mouth and said, "Ao Sanqu, are you really not putting my South Sea Dragon Palace in your eyes by attacking Xu Chengxian?"

"... Second Prince, what are you talking about?" Ao Sanqu asked, suppressing his anger and squinting his eyes.

This Second Prince was really annoying. His cultivation was a great realm lower than his own, and his own brother wasn't here, yet he dared to be so rude. Wasn't he just relying on his birth bloodline!

If he could find a secluded place to...

"Xu Chengxian came to your place with us," Ao Xingchi said. "If he is captured by you, where will the face of my South Sea Yellow Dragon clan be put?"

He didn't see through the White Dragon King's plan to capture Xu Chengxian, and he was completely unaware of the old dragon king's malice.

His opening at this time was just to follow his heart and maintain the face of the South Sea, which was a lucky coincidence.

"Second Prince!" Ao Sanqu's face turned cold. "And Master Cheng Kong, more than twenty treasures have already been lost in my treasure vault! This matter..."

"Hmph! This matter, you can't blame it on our South Sea Dragon Palace!"

Suddenly, the sound of wind and thunder came from mid-air, and a figure suddenly appeared above and said loudly.

Everyone looked up and saw that it was the Eighth Prince Ao Xingzhou, who had just left not long ago.

"Ao Sanqu, how many treasures you lost has nothing to do with us!" Ao Xingzhou put away his Wind Manipulation Technique and landed in front of Ao Sanqu, saying, "But there is one thing you have to give me an explanation for!"

"Eighth Prince, what is this?" Ao Sanqu frowned tightly when he saw him holding a Water-Repelling Pearl in one hand and a old turtle in the other, and his heart jumped, sensing something bad.

"This is your old turtle. You can ask him where he went during my search," Ao Xingzhou sneered. "And this Water-Repelling Pearl, the young one inside is Bai Chengyou. You can also ask your old turtle where I found him!"

"If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation for this, we're not done!"
