”Oh, Brother Tian, why can’t we find the way out? I remember it was here, right at the cave entrance.”

At the bottom of Tiger Roar Lake, Liu Fei’er looked around with a curious gaze. In this mysterious world, after they had killed the Blood Demon Elder, the three of them were prepared to leave. However, when the sky darkened, they couldn’t find the exit.

The situation was very strange, Qin Tian had noticed it as well.

Fei Hong was injured at this time, her face pale, and she remained silent.

”Strange, when we came here before, this was the entrance, but now, there’s nothing here. Could it be that this mysterious underwater world is capable of shifting?”

Qin Tian looked up and glanced around at the sky, saying, ”Where there is light, there is always an exit. If we follow the light source over there, we might find a way out.”

The three of them walked toward the place emitting dim light in the distance. At this moment, Qin Tian tightly gripped the Red Sword in his hand, and occasionally glanced down at his little companion, feeling a bit more confident inside.

After the Red Sword absorbed the True Qi energy of the Blood Demon Elder and directly fused with the Bloodthirsty Pearl, Qin Tian had a constant sense that the Red Sword harbored immense energy. However, he felt he had only just begun to tap into its potential.

”Gone, the red light is gone.”

”Yes, we tracked all the way here, couldn’t have imagined it would be at the bottom of Tiger Roar Lake. Ha, how could it be gone?”

”The red light was coming from that direction. The treasure must also be in that direction. Let’s hurry over and take a look. Someone must have beaten us to it.”

As Qin Tian and the others headed toward the source of white light, two groups of people were also approaching from not far away.

Faintly hearing what those people were saying, Qin Tian prepared to have Liu Fei’er and the others stop and then change direction to avoid these two groups.

But it was too late; both groups had already seen Qin Tian and his companions.

”Hey, you three, did you come from over there?”

The two groups of people numbered sixteen in total, with four standing together and another twelve standing together. Among the four, a middle-aged man with a moustache shouted at Qin Tian.

”Brother Tian, what should we do? These people are treasure hunters, could they be...?”

Liu Fei’er was already feeling a bit anxious. These two groups seemed like skilled warriors from the West State and the Demon Clan, joining forces, each with a strong presence.

And among the three of them, Fei Hong was severely injured. Qin Tian had sustained internal injuries after his Four Dragon Power was broken by the Blood Demon Elder. Only she was in slightly better shape, but facing so many experts, needing to protect Fei Hong while confronting them, she felt she couldn’t manage it.

The two groups, without further ado, began to walk toward Qin Tian and the others.

”Hey, kid, we’re talking to you.”

The moustached man stared at Qin Tian, saying, ”How long have you been here? Did you see that red light? Do you know how it disappeared?”

Firing off several questions at Qin Tian, he stood there, thought for a moment, and said, ”We were also attracted here by the red light. Then we encountered ghosts in front and barely escaped from a graveyard alive. As for the red light... we just discovered it’s gone.”

A mix of truth and lies makes it hardest for people to discern.

”Heh heh, kid, you can lie without flinching, I truly admire you.”

Behind the moustached man, an elderly man with white hair stepped out slowly. In his hand was a crystal-clear Bright Pearl, emitting a soft silver light.

”Why would I lie? I don’t know you; no need to lie, right?”

Qin Tian chuckled softly.

However, as he spoke, he noticed the white-haired man’s gaze fixed on the Red Sword in his hand. His heart skipped a beat, sensing something was wrong.

Sure enough, the white-haired man sneered, ”Trying to play dumb in front of me? Humph, that red light disappeared because of you!”

As soon as the elder spoke, everyone was shocked.

The next moment, the elder chanted a Mnemonic, pointing directly at the Red Sword in Qin Tian’s hand!

”The treasure that emitted the red light is this sword of his! Everyone, look!”

With the elder’s Mnemonic, the silver pearl in his hand emitted an eerie light, which drilled toward the Red Sword in Qin Tian’s hand...

Buzz!

A strange sound rang out.

Then, the Red Sword seemed to be awakened by the light, suddenly emanating a red glow uncontrollably...

The red glow that appeared was exactly the same as the one Qin Tian had seen before.

Evidently, Qin Tian’s lie was immediately exposed by the white-haired elder.

Qin Tian looked at the white pearl in the elder’s hand, mentally shaken. He wondered what this pearl was, being capable of awakening the Red Sword?

As he was in shock, those sixteen people had already, almost simultaneously, approached them, directly encircling Qin Tian and his friends.

”What are you doing?”

Liu Fei’er and Fei Hong both looked serious.

The moustached man said, ”Humph, I never expected to be tricked. I hate being deceived the most!”

The leader of the twelve was a tall, thin middle-aged man, who also stepped forward, saying with a smile:

”It’s like searching high and low only to find it effortlessly. Ha, I didn’t expect the supreme treasure we’ve been searching for to be a sword. Well, not bad. The legendary supreme treasure, the Phoenix Immortal Sword from the East State, was said to be taken by the Dragon Clan. Today, our luck seems to be exceptionally good. Brother Bai, your Spiritual Treasure Pearl has indeed excelled.”

The white-haired elder nodded, saying, ”I observe that this sword radiates a bloodthirsty glow all over and should be an Ancient Divine Artifact, a weapon for killing. If deployed on a battlefield and properly controlled, its full power could, conservatively speaking, rival the combat strength of a hundred thousand soldiers.”

Wow!

As soon as the white-haired elder finished speaking, everyone was stunned, their eyes all fixed on the Red Sword in Qin Tian’s hand!

Even Liu Fei’er and Fei Hong were dumbfounded, looking at the Red Sword, thinking, could this sword really have such immense power? A hundred thousand soldiers?

Only Qin Tian felt a bit speechless and smiled wryly.

Damn, this treasure was obviously the Bloodthirsty Pearl, and his Bloodthirsty Sword was unjustly caught in it...

Nothing he said now would matter, these guys already had their eyes on the combined powers of the Bloodthirsty Sword and Bloodthirsty Pearl, this Divine Sword.

”What, are you thinking of seizing it by force?”

Qin Tian knew very well that saying anything more was pointless. These people were now staring at his Red Sword with greedy eyes. Letting the three of them leave was basically impossible.

”Come on, how could it be called seizing? We’re all civilized people.”

The white-haired elder stepped forward with a gentle smile, saying, ”Borrowing, it should be called borrowing. Young brother, may I borrow the sword in your hand for a closer study?”
