Jiu Long and Xi Yan never expected that Chu Liuyue would do that.
She directly admitted that the two music scores were with her and even used it to threaten them, causing them not to dare kill her!
She did it so swiftly and directly, not even giving time for them to think. The most annoying part was that after some detailed thinking, they realized that Chu Liuyue’s arrogant behavior made sense.
After knowing of the incident… Although they hated her to the core, they really could not do anything to her.
“Since you’re going to find the music score and so am I, it’s just nice. Why don’t we just work together?” asked Chu Liuyue with a smile on her face.
Jiu Long was enraged. “What is ‘just nice!?’ Shangguan Yue, do you think that everyone is a fool?”
The music scores have already acknowledged her as their owner. Thus, even if we find the last one, it will most likely end up with her! She holds the absolute advantage in this aspect. Even if we work together and find the third music score in the end, we’ll be working hard to give her a dowry!
Now, we don’t even have time to guard against her. How could we take action with her?
Chu Liuyue revealed her pity and spread her hands. “It seems like you’re unwilling to do it. Since this is so, then… Let’s stay in our own lanes and do things with our own skills. How does that sound? Whoever finds the music score first, whoever it shall belong to.”
Jiu Long and Xi Yan exchanged a glance.
Of course, they did not want to agree to Chu Liuyue’s suggestion. She was originally the owner of the music scores, and she had more advantages in finding it.
However, if they disagreed… It seemed like she was going to cause a bigger scene.
Yet, they could not do anything to her!
After a while, Xi Yan made a face at Jiu Long. Then, he looked at Chu Liuyue and said, “Since you insist, it’s not that we can’t agree. However, we have our own conditions.”
“Deity, go ahead.”
“Everyone will use their own abilities to find the music score. However, the person who can ultimately bring it back to Fantasy Divine Palace is the true winner! At that time, no matter the result, the other party can’t continue fighting!”
Chu Liuyue’s red lips curled up slightly. I knew that it wouldn’t be easy to convince the two of them. So that’s what they were planning.
One has to know that this place is quite a distance away from Fantasy Divine Palace. Who can expect what will happen in the middle? Even if I find it first, they can snatch it halfway and finally obtain it for themselves forcefully. In this situation, they can still attain their goals in the end.
Chu Liuyue was a legendary warrior, and Qi Han and Lu Feng standing behind her were true gods.
Facing Jiu Long and Xi Yan, who had cultivation bases above that of a legendary warrior. Weren’t they clearly bullying others?
Once they took action, Chu Liuyue could do her best, but it was impossible for her to beat them. They were clearly snatching it.
But after Chu Liuyue thought about it seriously, she actually nodded happily—she agreed! “Okay.”
Chu Liuyue’s agreement came too suddenly, and both Jiu Long and Xi Yan were stunned.
“However, there’s something I want to say clearly. When you say ‘return to Fantasy Divine Palace,’ do you mean pass the Heaven Gate or… If you say that it’s considered when we enter the Fantasy Divine Hall, won’t I lose from the very beginning?” Chu Liuyue shrugged.
“Of course, it is once you pass the Heaven Gate!” added Xi Yan.
Although they did not know why Chu Liuyue would agree to it, this condition was clearly beneficial for them, so it would be a waste if they did not use it.
If the two of them could directly find the last music score, it would be for the best. If Chu Liuyue accidentally took the first step, they could just snatch it over.
As long as it didn’t risk her life, couldn’t they control everything else?
Jiu Long finally calmed down. “Since we’re done discussing, then—”
Boom!
A loud noise was heard from afar.
Jiu Long and Xi Yan immediately turned around to look.
This voice came from the depths of the legendary warrior tombstone area—someone had already entered!
The two of them looked at each other.
Jiu Long immediately noticed something, and he angrily gazed at Chu Liuyue. “You even secretly brought someone with you?!”
Chu Liuyue smiled, and her eyes curved up. “I never said that I came here alone.”
“You—” Jiu Long was so angry that his teeth were itchy! So she said so much just to stall for time!
Xi Yan knitted his brows tightly. “Forget it. Now isn’t the time to argue with her about these things! Let’s go in first and see what’s going on!”
This noise came suddenly, and it was definitely not something an average cultivator could cause. Something must’ve happened to the legendary warrior tomb area. Perhaps… it was related to the last music score!
Jiu Long glanced at Chu Liuyue harshly. “Shangguan Yue, don’t be too happy! Whoever can laugh at the end is the winner!”
However, Chu Liuyue couldn’t be bothered to deal with them as she turned around to look at Qi Han and Lu Feng. “Go!”
Once she said that, she went on her toes.
Her thin and agile figure rapidly disappeared from the spot, going straight for the group of tombs.
Qi Han and Lu Feng followed closely!
Luckily, their injuries weren’t too serious. Additionally, as Chu Liuyue had talked to Jiu Long duo for some time, they had recuperated during that period. Due to this, they quickly followed her.
Jiu Long cursed silently and immediately went forward with Xi Yan.
…
Xi Yan and Jiu Long’s cultivation levels were higher than Chu Liuyue and the rest’s after all. In no time, they had already overtaken her.
The two of them didn’t pause at all as they rapidly rushed in the direction of the sound.
After about ten minutes or so, they saw a figure from afar.
It was a young man who had his back facing them. He was decked in white and was very tall.
He stood with one hand behind his back, and the space before him had started collapsing and distorting as he rapidly absorbed the surrounding force.
Even if it was just a figure, his cold and elegant aura could not be concealed at all.
Jiu Long knitted his brows. “This is the person who came with Shangguan Yue?”
Why does it seem… amiss?
He could not pinpoint exactly what was wrong, but he felt uneasy for some reason. However, he quickly pushed this feeling to the back of his mind.
“Who are you!? How dare you work with Shangguan Yue and lie to us!” Jiu Long boomed and questioned.
Hearing his voice, that man turned around.
His demonically handsome face was covered with a thin layer of frost. His phoenix eyes were deep and peerless! “Jiu Long, Xi Yan, you’ve become increasingly daring.”
