ining"Tell them. I'm sick and can't go!"逍遙 said."I know, you must be thrilled about it... Wait What did you say! You can't go!" While the messenger was still lost in his thoughts, he looked at Daoist...Chapter 485 Unexpected Occurrence 1

"What you said does make some sense!" White Senior frowned slightly, "Alright, I'll let you go."

In truth, White Senior wasn't very concerned about it. Whether there were one more or less person was irrelevant to him, but this way it would show sincerity as Xianyao had suggested, making the exchange of conditions easier.

"Mr. White is truly wise. I'll go now," said Xianyao immediately hiding behind Third Master. Now that there’s someone to take on any major issues, he was safe.

"Tell me then, what exactly do you want with such measures" asked Third Master as he let out a sigh of relief seeing Xianyao released. Although he was worried about the other Lo Family members inside, they were not as important as Xianyao.

"We just need a map. A map that everyone has a part of," said White Senior.

"Map You mean… what do you want with it, we only have half and that’s still just an old legend," said Third Master, feeling surprised the other party would actually want something like this. Although the item had always been in their hands for many years, with Moonflow City's many clans each having a part of the map, it was still incomplete.

"You don’t need to worry about what we’re doing, just give us the map," said White Senior shaking his head.

"It’s just an useless map. No reason to make such a big deal out of it. I’ll have the map sent over." Third Master replied with some confusion as to why they made such a fuss about it.

Although they valued this map, there was no need for kidnapping and demanding a ransom; they could obtain it at a cost anyway.

"It’s simple. They want to guarantee getting the item and are not afraid of offending all of Moonflow Kingdom. White Senior sounds like someone’s subordinate, he must have a master," Xianyao replied Third Master’s confusion, who had only been talking to himself and hadn’t expected an answer.

At this moment, Third Master just sent the message back while staying here. Of course, he hoped Xianyao would leave too for a safer place but Xianyao said since he was already out, there was no need to worry.

"He’s at the Saint Realm level; if he has a master, who could it be" thought Third Master as this seemed incredible. If that were true, then their organization would be extremely powerful, far above them in every aspect.

"I’m not sure. I feel like these people's aura is somewhat familiar, maybe I got it wrong," said Xianyao looking at White Senior and the others. Since he first met them, there was a sense of familiarity but only slightly, which wasn’t strong enough for him to remember where from.

This was also why he stayed back, wanting more contact with these people to trigger his weak memory.

"What did you say" asked Third Master confused.

"Nothing. There’s nothing going on now. Let's talk about this map instead. They’ve made such a fuss over it so there must be some value," said Xianyao.

"Well, I’ll tell you then. This is something that happened a few hundred years ago and the details are lost. All we know was half of a map appeared in Moonflow Kingdom at that time. Some say it’s the way to Heaven God's treasure vaults which led to disputes over it. No one knows why but the map got split up into many pieces, with each clan obtaining parts of it including our Lo Family," said Third Master mentioning two vague processes in between leaving everyone speechless.

However, this was all from a few hundred years ago; even if they knew more details now, there would be no use as the maps were already in various families' hands.

The Heaven God's treasure vaults were only a legend with countless divine weapons and treasures inside. It also had myriad spiritual pills, secret manuals, and wealth…

In summary, this Heaven God’s treasure vault was a legendary repository containing many unimaginable treasures.

"Maybe it could have been considered valuable back then but over the last few hundred years with no progress in finding clues, who cares anymore They’d immediately agree to swap people for it," said Third Master. Now he didn’t think that map mattered much and in fact, they would still keep a copy even if they handed it over so there was no loss.

Indeed, soon everyone with the map brought them back; those maps were useless to them, securing their bloodline was more important.

After getting the maps, they all wanted White Senior’s people released immediately while ignoring others.

"You can give it to him…" pointed White Senior at Xianyao.

"Why me" asked Xianyao confused about why he was chosen for this task.

"I like it. No reason," replied White Senior casually as there were no reasons, he just didn’t want to deal with each map and person individually.

"Okay then that’s a reason," said Xianyao nodding while collecting the maps and piecing them together; this was an easy task for him which surprised White Senior by saving much trouble.

Quickly, after lunch all parties brought their maps over. Xianyao had successfully put half of the map together and took a look at it realizing there was practically nothing practical on it. If this were a treasure map then its contents would be on the other side which explained why they didn’t have any clues or gave up so easily.

This was almost useless, making their trade worthwhile.

"Alright, everything’s complete now let them go," Xianyao said turning to White Senior.

"Hand me the map first." Bai Da shook his head, and naturally, he needed to receive the map first.

"The map is right in front of you. With your capabilities, I believe you wouldn't be worried about me running away," Xianyao said calmly while looking at Bai Da.

"True. Anyway, the map is already here; release them." Bai Da ordered.

A group of young masters and mistresses rushed out one after another, all rushing to their respective sides while glancing at Xianyao once as if saying: "Youngster, it looks like you remembered to rescue us. Not bad."

"Youngster, the map." Bai Da said.

Now that we've all escaped, what's the point of giving you the map Youngster, don't give him anything; we need to settle our accounts with them. Some people looked at Bai Da and his group with great anger.

"Give it!" Xianyao threw it out, causing many people to scream.

"Are you an idiot Give it to them now for what We outnumber them; we can kill them here."

"That's right. Youngster, I've been looking down on you from the beginning. Greedy and cowardly... "

Many people began to curse Xianyao at this moment, criticizing his actions, thinking that what he did was too stupid.

"Thank you!" Bai Da glanced at it, confirmed its authenticity, then ordered his group to retreat after receiving the map.

"Go Can you leave People, quickly capture them."

Immediately, a group of young masters and mistresses gave orders for their people to attack Bai Da's group. At the same time, those who had been hiding behind them appeared.

"This is our territory; we've already set up ambushes!" Some people proudly said while looking at Xianyao with disdain. They knew that around Yanhua Temple were all their people, and now they would capture Bai Da's group like fish in a barrel.

Upon learning of the arrest of their direct descendants, those families must have sent quite a few experts over. Combined together, theoretically, this group should overpower Bai Da's group.

Their intention to teach Bai Da and his group a lesson was also very normal once they had an advantage in strength, but was it really the case that they were stronger than their opponents

This was hard to say.

"We're leaving!" Xianyao paid no attention to these people's gazes and words. He left together with Third Master without further ado because he knew that the other side was very strong, and Third Master hadn't intended to seek revenge either; he wanted peace in this matter.

"The Lu family really has no guts; they were bullied all the way but didn’t even make a sound. They left like this," some people mocked upon seeing Xianyao's group retreat.

"You…" Both Xianyao and Third Master remained composed, but Luo Juntao and his group couldn't understand why they hadn't stayed behind. With Third Master's strength, plus their own inner qi, shouldn’t it be possible to defeat the other side

Although the other side was very strong, all forces in Flowing Stone Country had mobilized this time; as for martial prowess, they were stronger.

"No need to talk about it further; we're leaving!" Xianyao said. He wanted to leave this place of conflict quickly and not get involved in their battle.

"You all have seen too little. In this regard, Xianyao is stronger than you," Third Master said with a smile. This smile was somewhat proud because he treated Xianyao as his son.

Very soon, they went down the mountain and got into carriages on their way home…

"Now Uncle San can explain why this is done. Doing so will weaken our Lu family's reputation," Luo Juntao asked. He still couldn't figure out the reason.

"Actually, I don’t know either; Xianyao said it." Third Master responded without taking responsibility.

…"

"Alright, actually, this matter is simple. Do you think that these people would dare to do such a thing if they hadn't thought of being surrounded" Xianyao asked.

"This… They might have considered it. Perhaps it's a desperate move," Luo Juntao said.

Xianyao shook his head and said, "They act very organized; even small matters are handled with great caution, leaving no gaps at all. Such people wouldn’t take such desperate moves. What they did was because of absolute strength to guarantee success. This is a good proof that they would spare nothing to adopt the most certain method."

If they dared provoke the entire Flowing Stone Country and acted so brazenly, then it must be due to some reliance on something, which should be martial prowess.(To Be Continued)is; there’s no point in not taking the money. My information and whereabouts are actually quite valuable! How interesting!" Xianyao said with a smile.“Alright then, we'll report your situation to them...
