The treasures present, reminded by the Measuring Heaven Ruler, noticed the change in Zhunti Daoren's demeanor and cried out in alarm.
"Wait, there's something wrong with this guy's eyes, I feel like he's leering!"
"Exactly, this guy's gaze is truly disgusting, I wonder what he's up to?"
"Oh no, could it be that we haven't managed to subdue this guy?"
The treasures chattered amongst themselves and soon realized that Zhunti Daoren might have seen through their disguise, which was why he was acting this way.
Indeed, the treasures' guess was correct. Zhunti Daoren had seen through their disguise.
Initially, Zhunti Daoren was terrified upon seeing Xu Fang's treasures appearing within the protective formation, circling the Enlightenment Tea Tree. If Xu Fang's treasures were here, then their master, Xu Fang, must surely be nearby, just like these treasures!
However, Zhunti Daoren scanned his surroundings but found no trace of Xu Fang. He extended his divine sense, and within a thousand-mile radius, there was no sign of Xu Fang!
Zhunti Daoren finally confirmed that Xu Fang was not present, and only his treasures had appeared here!
Even though he couldn't fathom why such a situation had occurred, Zhunti Daoren was relieved knowing that the great demon Xu Fang was not here.
"That's truly wonderful! If Xu Fang isn't here, can't I take all his treasures into my possession? Haha!"
Zhunti Daoren laughed heartily, gazing at the treasures within the protective formation, his greed no longer concealed in his eyes. Xu Fang had humiliated him repeatedly. Now that his treasures were here, why would he show any mercy!
Upon hearing Zhunti Daoren's words, Xu Fang's treasures cursed him.
"Damn it! This Zhunti Daoren is truly suicidal!"
"Son of a bitch! Was our display not grand enough to scare Zhunti Daoren away immediately?"
"Alas, our worst fear has come true. What shall we do!"
The treasures spoke one after another, cursing Zhunti Daoren while lamenting their fate. Their arrival here, separated from their master Xu Fang, was merely a bluff. If they couldn't scare Zhunti Daoren away immediately and make him realize the truth, the situation had instantly reversed. Now, Zhunti Daoren was coveting them!
Zhunti Daoren, of course, couldn't hear the treasures' words. He was staring intently at the treasures within the formation, his face beaming with joy.
"How many years has it been, Xu Fang, the humiliation you once inflicted upon my Western realm, I will now return it to you with interest!"
Regardless of the reason why Xu Fang's treasures had separated from him and appeared here, since Xu Fang was not present, any treasure here was destined to be connected with the West! If he could collect all these treasures, it would be a tremendous loss for Xu Fang. Then, let's see how he would deal with the West in the future!
In the chat group, seeing this scene, the treasures also chimed in.
[Creation Jade Butterfly: Haha! Measuring Heaven Ruler, you bunch of guys, you tried to steal a chicken and ended up losing the rice, didn't you?]
[Jieyin Exquisite Flower Lantern: That's right, did you really think my Western realm was so easy to provoke? A bluff, to scare away the dignified future Saint?]
[Creation Jade Butterfly: Alas, I must say, you were indeed outmaneuvered!]
[Chaos Bell: Although this is a sad event, why do I feel like laughing so much?]
[Measuring Heaven Ruler: Laugh if you want. We were truly impulsive this time.]
[Enlightenment Tea Tree: Alas, blame me. If I had acted sooner, Zhunti Daoren probably wouldn't have been attracted here, right?]
Xu Fang had no intention of replying to the treasures' messages. He stared intently at the live broadcast, pondering how to resolve this situation.
"Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, when you mentioned teleportation in the treasure realm, does it truly only teleport treasures and not living beings?" Xu Fang asked, and soon received a reply from the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
"Yes, please master, hurry and think of a solution, otherwise, Measuring Heaven Ruler and the other treasures will be in grave danger and fall into the Western realm." The Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda certainly didn't want to see its fellow treasures' rescue team wiped out, and urged Xu Fang to find a way. However, it also mused inwardly: In this situation, with the great distance, master Xu Fang would certainly not be able to arrive in time. And without Xu Fang, how could the treasures, relying solely on their instincts, resist Zhunti Daoren and wait for Xu Fang's rescue?
Xu Fang also became agitated. He had thought too much, believing that the treasures' arrival would make Zhunti Daoren flee in terror. This time, he had truly miscalculated. Not only could the Enlightenment Tea Tree not be saved, but a group of treasures had also been lost.
At that moment, in the live feed, Zhunti Daoren, with a trembling hand and an excited heart, reached towards the formation's barrier, preparing to break it and seize the treasures.
"Wait! Zhunti, aren't you afraid that Senior Xu Fang will hold you accountable later?" Duobao Daoren shouted. Xu Fang's treasures appearing here, yet not being able to find Senior Xu Fang, made him feel incredibly incredulous. But seeing Zhunti Daoren about to break the formation and take the treasures, he couldn't think of anything else. Senior Xu Fang had shown him great kindness; how could he stand by and watch Zhunti Daoren take all of Senior Xu Fang's treasures? To make Zhunti Daoren desist, Duobao Daoren directly hit a sore spot.
"Zhunti, by doing this, do you want to be rolled away again like before?" The Zhunti Daoren and Jieyin Daoren of the West had always ended up shamefully retreating whenever they encountered Senior Xu Fang. They truly "rolled away". Duobao Daoren naturally wanted to scare Zhunti Daoren into abandoning his idea.
These words, falling into Zhunti Daoren's ears, made him pause as he looked back at Duobao. He clearly remembered those unbearable experiences. However, after looking around and probing with his divine sense again, Zhunti Daoren's expression turned fierce once more, and he let out a cold snort.
"Humph! Xu Fang is not here. If I take his treasures, I'd like to see how he will contend with our Western realm in the future!" "These treasures appearing here means they are fated to be with our Western realm!" Zhunti Daoren's words expressed his resentment and also bolstered his courage as he stared intently at Duobao Daoren.
"As for you, having offended me repeatedly, do you really think I will be polite to you?" Zhunti Daoren said, unleashing several sharp attacks directly at Duobao Daoren. Duobao Daoren, already injured, could not resist and was immediately sent flying, crashing into a small mountain nearby. Rolling stones buried Duobao Daoren, raising dust and smoke. His survival was unknown.
After dealing with the troublesome Duobao Daoren, Zhunti Daoren snorted and ignored his fate, his gaze returning to the protective formation.
"Xu Fang, oh Xu Fang, say goodbye to your treasures!" Zhunti Daoren laughed. With his words, he decisively attacked to break the formation. Xu Fang's treasures are fated to be with our Western realm, so I shall accept them. I'd like to see Xu Fang's expression later, haha!
