Xu Fang watched the fierce attack and quickly dodged to the side, breaking the magical link between himself and the Six Roots Pure Bamboo.
This caused the two spiritual treasures, the Heaven Measuring Ruler and the Six Roots Pure Bamboo, who were whispering, to be startled.
"What's going on? Which scoundrel dares to interfere with my business?"
The Heaven Measuring Ruler was furious. Could he not even properly recruit a subordinate spiritual treasure?
Back then, the Four Seas Bottle and the Misty Dew Universe Net were also about to be refined when Fuxi and Nuwa, siblings, jumped out.
Now it was the same again, endlessly. Did they really not take me, the Heaven Measuring Ruler, seriously?
Unlike the Heaven Measuring Ruler, the Six Roots Pure Bamboo, though also surprised, had a tone of expected sadness.
"I knew it, things that happen to me are never easy."
"My desire for stable happiness is probably just a fantasy!"
Seeing this, the Heaven Measuring Ruler quickly comforted it.
"Sister Six Roots Pure Bamboo, don't be so dejected. You don't need to worry about this, young fellow Xu will handle it. Quickly follow the method I taught you and feel the warmth of the big family."
Hearing this, Xu Fang felt displeased. It felt as if the Heaven Measuring Ruler was more of a master than he was, already bossing him around.
Why should I handle it while you're busy flirting?
However, Xu Fang couldn't afford to bother with such trivialities at the moment. He quickly looked around and shouted in a deep voice.
"What being dares to obstruct my treasure refining?"
He wanted to see which ignorant creature would come forward to stop him at this critical juncture.
"Fellow Daoist jokes. How can we be obstructing your treasure refining? It should be said that you are snatching my treasure?"
"Indeed, my junior brother Zhunti has a greater karmic connection with this treasure. If fellow Daoist is wise, you will retreat now, and we will not pursue this matter."
Two voices sounded, and two figures appeared opposite Xu Fang. Their eyes were fixed on the Six Roots Pure Bamboo between them, completely ignoring Xu Fang's existence.
"Zhunti Daoist?"
Hearing this, Xu Fang immediately understood. So, in the end, he couldn't avoid the Western duo and ran into them here!
"Oh? This fellow recognizes us?"
"I didn't expect the reputation of us Western brothers to be so famous in the Great Wilderness!"
Xu Fang's words caused the Western duo, who had initially disdained him, to look over, speaking with delight.
They hadn't expected their reputation to be so great that this person actually recognized them.
"Since fellow Daoist knows our names, you must also know our abilities."
Zhunti Daoist looked at Xu Fang and said.
"Therefore, please do not overestimate yourself, fellow Daoist, and quickly leave this place to avoid harming yourself!"
"Indeed, if fellow Daoist insists on going your own way, when we take action, it will be a burden your immortal life cannot bear!"
Jieyin Daoist also echoed. Since this person knew them, it would be easier. A warning and a threat, and he would surely be sensible and leave.
"Are you two talking to yourselves here meaningfully?"
Xu Fang scoffed. Fuxi and Nuwa had spoken kindly, and he had thought it over before reluctantly giving up the Four Seas Bottle and the Misty Dew Universe Net.
The Western duo, who had been threatening him from the start, meant that he didn't need to be polite to them at all.
The Western duo's faces darkened upon hearing this. It seemed their reputation wasn't enough to scare this person off, and they might have to resort to action.
"Fellow Daoist, if you are like this, I can only teach you what is called the immensity of heaven and earth."
"Indeed, this treasure has a greater karmic connection with us. If you are unwilling to hand over the treasure, you are asking for trouble!"
Zhunti Daoist and Jieyin Daoist, in a duet, quickly placed the hat of ignorance and deliberate provocation on Xu Fang.
This way, they would be in the right when they fought, and it wouldn't be their fault!
Xu Fang found it laughable and exasperating!
Although the Western duo was not well-known in the Great Wilderness at this time, their shameless style of conduct had already begun to form.
In a few words, they had shifted all the blame to him, and they were as if they had no choice but to act for the treasure destined for them!
Logically speaking, regardless of any connection between the Six Roots Pure Bamboo and Zhunti Daoist, since he had found the treasure before them, it was first come, first served.
The Western duo had resorted to threats from the start, so Xu Fang naturally wouldn't treat them the same way he treated Fuxi and Nuwa.
"Good! I'd like to see if your abilities are as formidable as your mouths!"
"Ruyi Jingu Bang, rise and work!"
Xu Fang reached into his ear and took out the Ruyi Jingu Bang, preparing to fight the Western duo.
Zhunti Daoist and Jieyin Daoist heard Xu Fang's words and thought he was going to produce some earth-shattering treasure. However, when they saw it, they burst into laughter.
"Oh? A needle for embroidery?"
"This? Haha, it's hilarious!"
Zhunti Daoist and Jieyin Daoist looked at the Ruyi Jingu Bang in Xu Fang's hand, which was the size of an embroidery needle. Although it exuded a powerful aura of a treasure, its appearance made them not nervous at all and even made them laugh uncontrollably.
What could such an embroidery needle accomplish?
Could this person possibly stab them to death with this embroidery needle treasure?
Or was he planning to make them laugh themselves to death like this?
"Alas, Ruyi Jingu Bang, look at yourself. At this appearance, people don't take you seriously. How dare you be melancholic like the Six Roots Pure Bamboo and not grow bigger?"
Xu Fang looked at the Ruyi Jingu Bang in his hand, frustrated by its lack of progress.
Stung by Xu Fang's words, the Ruyi Jingu Bang was also filled with indignation.
It was enough to be mocked by the chaotic innate spiritual treasures in the group, but now it had to endure the sarcastic remarks of these two bird-like Daoists. It was truly infuriating!
Under this surge of anger, and with Xu Fang's command, the Ruyi Jingu Bang emitted a burst of light and began to grow rapidly.
Soon, a pillar that reached the sky stood before Zhunti Daoist and Jieyin Daoist, emanating a powerful aura and shimmering brightly.
"This!"
Zhunti Daoist and Jieyin Daoist, looking at the embroidery needle, which had instantly transformed into a sky-reaching pillar, were both greatly shocked.
They had never imagined that this embroidery needle could become so enormous. The sheer weight alone could crush a large number of immortals!
"How about it, do you two still want to spar with me?"
Seeing that the Western duo had fallen silent, Xu Fang asked.
"At that time, don't blame my staff for being ruthless!"
To his surprise, Zhunti Daoist and Jieyin Daoist exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with unconcealed delight, and they both spoke.
"Haha! This item is marvelous. Although it's just an ordinary spiritual treasure, if used properly, it can be a good treasure."
"Junior Brother Jieyin is right. This bamboo has a karmic connection with us, and this staff also has a karmic connection with us!"
Xu Fang's face darkened. He had always found the West annoying, and the most annoying thing was this "everything has a karmic connection with the West" rhetoric!
