Chapter 235: Not A Single Soulstone To Be Found, The Reckless Shang Han

“Go!”

“Let’s enter the ancient city!”

Shang Han was the first to rush into the enchanted boundary.

The others soon followed suit.

The cracks in the enchanted boundary slowly disappeared after Li Xiaoyun and the others rushed inside. The group of tormented souls could only wander around the area for a while before they left after a while.

Inside the ancient city’s enchanted boundary.

Li Xiaoyun and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

“I can’t believe we encountered the Tormented Saber Wielder. That’s too dangerous.”

“You’re right.”

“Take a headcount of everyone, and find out our losses and casualties.”

Only then did everyone begin to find out the number of casualties they had sustained and realized that the losses from this battle were higher than expected as more than half of the Yun Xiao Troop were either dead or injured.

Li Xiaoyun’s expression was extremely unpleasant. “D*mn it”

“The Lou Kingdom’s treasures are right in front of you and are now yours for the taking, so their deaths are not in vain,” Shang Han said at this moment.

At that, everyone’s eyes lit up with excitement and desire. They looked at the ancient city ahead of them and gulped.

The Lou Kingdom’s treasure!

Countless people had dreamt of finding the Lou Kingdom’s treasure just like that and I can’t believe no one knew why as well.” One of the troop members lamented.

“Who knows? Let’s focus on finding the treasures instead.”

“It should be inside the palace.”

Everyone immediately headed to the palace, and when they saw the palace treasury, everyone quickly rushed in with great excitement.

However, the next moment left them stunned.

“Where’s the treasure?”

“Why is there nothing here?”

“The Lou Kingdom’s treasure… Where’s the Lou Kingdom’s treasure?”

It seemed like everyone could not accept that fact.

They had been through much hardship and sacrificed many good men to get here all for the Lou Kingdom’s treasure.

Despite that, the treasures were now gone.

Those with a slightly weaker Daoist Core almost spewed blood.

“It can’t be. The foundation of the Lou Kingdom is far stronger than the likes of the Royal Azure Dynasty, how can there be nothing inside here? ”

Even Shang Han was dumbfounded.

“Wait… Everyone take a look over here… What’s that?”

Suddenly, someone exclaimed as they stared at a certain pillar.

Everyone then looked over and saw a line of characters on it. Although they could not see the words clearly, they could feel a surge of horrifying and razor-sharp Sword-based Daoist Rhyme gushing towards their faces.

Li Xiaoyun was a sword cultivator.

Moreover, he was ranked tenth in the Hundred Sword Spectrum as well!

Yet even he was taken aback when he felt that Sword-based Daoist Rhyme and his face hardened.

“What a terrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhyme!”

“The person that left those words here is no doubt a powerful sword cultivator!”

Li Xiaoyun stared at the words and read them out. “Chu Kuangren was here.”

Everyone suddenly turned silent.

The moment Chu Kuangren’s name was mentioned, it shocked everyone as if it was imbued with magical power. All of their expressions changed drastically.

“Chu Kuangren, how is that possible!”

“He’s the one who got the Lou Kingdom’s treasure in the end!”

“Godd*mn it, how did he even get in?”

After knowing who got the Lou Kingdom’s treasure, not only did everyone have no intention of stealing the treasure from him, but they were even more disappointed instead.

It was all because the one who took the treasure was named Chu Kuangren!

“Chu Kuangren is ranked first in the Hundred Sword Spectrum. No wonder he had such a terrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhyme. His reputation is no doubt well-deserved.” Li Xiaoyun murmured.

“F*ck this, f*ck this sh*t!”

Beside him, Shang Han’s face was red with anger. The spiritual power from his body raged uncontrollably and bombarded the surrounding walls.

He was on the brink of going mad with rage!

He had gone through countless ancient archives to look for the Lou clan’s ancient sword and took even greater lengths to find and get to the Lou Kingdom. Despite all of that, he never expected Chu Kuangren to be one step ahead.

“It’s you again! It’s you again!”

“Why are you one step ahead of me! God f*cking d*mn it!”

Everyone could not help but feel a hint of pity for Shang Han, who was venting his anger in a craze.

They knew that Shang Han was a Young Emperor and one of the most remarkable sky-prides in the world at that.

However, who would dare call themselves a sky-pride before Chu Kuangren?

Every so-called sky-pride was not worth mentioning before the likes of him!

“Captain, what should we do now?”

One of the Yun Xiao Troop members asked unwillingly.

They had overcome many hardships just to get here. Were they going to return empty-handed because of this?

No one would ever feel satisfied at the thought of that.

“What else can we do then? Do you wish to seek Chu Kuangren and fight him until your very death?” Li Xiaoyun replied.

“Why would I ever dare to do that?” That troop member quickly shook his head.

Seek Chu Kuangren to fight him until their very deaths?

Stop joking.

That was the same as seeking death instead.

Among all the people in this world, how many of them would dare to find and fight Chu Kuangren?

Even a Sage would have to reconsider that notion.

“Sigh, I can’t believe that the treasure was taken by Chu Kuangren. What a waste of our effort.”

Everyone was depressed and listless.

Relying on their last glimmer of hope, everyone searched through the treasury one more time in hopes that there were some treasures left.

Treasures that were left behind or missed by Chu Kuangren for instance.

However, not even a soulstone was to be found. Chu Kuangren’s looting was too thorough!

“Captain, we’ve discovered something new here.”

At that time, Li Xiaoyun received a message from some of the other troop members.

Everyone soon came to the palace main hall hopefully.

Inside the main hall, they saw the countless runes and also the Lou Kingdom’s Ruler standing in the palace with the Heaven’s Halberd in his hands.

The moment he saw the Heaven’s Halberd, Shang Han’s expression changed from slight disbelief to great delight.

“The Heaven’s Halberd. It’s the Heaven’s Halberd!”

“Hold on a minute, are you kidding me? Did Chu Kuangren just leave behind the most valuable treasure here? Did he not take it away with him?”

“He’s not that stupid, right?”

Deep down, Shang Han was extremely delighted.

That Heaven’s Halberd was his biggest goal for this trip.

After seeing Chu Kuangren’s words earlier, he initially lost all hope of obtaining the Heaven’s Halberd.

Yet never did he expect that Chu Kuangren would leave this most valuable Boundary-Emperor weapon in the Lou Kingdom!

Shang Han could not wait to enter the palace.

Then, the body of the Lou Kingdom’s Ruler trembled slightly, and a golden light shot out to reveal an image of what he looked like when he was alive. The recorded video began to play before them.

“Explorer from the future!”

“I’m the Ruler of this Lou Kingdom…”

The Lou Kingdom’s Ruler started to talk about the past. He told everyone about the million-unit Tormented Army that was sealed beneath the palace and warned them not to take the Heaven’s Halberd away.

Everyone was extremely shocked when they heard this.

No one expected such a terrifying thing to be right under their very feet.

“Captain, what should we do now?”

“Let’s leave. This is not something we should mess with.”

Li Xiaoyun simply said.

Everyone took a reluctant look at that Heaven’s Halberd.

However, at that time.

Everyone witnessed Shang Han walking towards Heaven’s Halberd with a crazed look on his face despite the Lou Kingdom’s Ruler’s warning.

“This Boundary-Emperor weapon belongs to me. How can I possibly give up on it?”

“If Chu Kuangren did not dare to take it, then all the more reason for me to do so!”

“If Chu Kuangren is benevolent, righteous, and takes into account the wellbeing of the people in this world, then I shall follow my heart and take this Boundary-Emperor weapon away!”

“I shall let the whole world know that Chu Kuangren is weaker than me!”

He gripped the Heaven’s Halberd strongly and a surge of spiritual power erupted from his body before he yanked the Heaven’s Halberd away from Lou Kingdom’s hand.

Suddenly, the entire palace and even the entire city trembled like crazy. Many cracks soon began to appear on the ground.

It was as if something horrifying was about to emerge from within.

Inside the palace, the pieces of golden runes started to shatter one by one!

“That’s not good, let’s get the hell out of here!”

Extremely terrified, Li Xiaoyun rushed outside the palace with the rest of the troop members in a panic.
