Chapter 4202 They're not in the same group.
Li Chao was a little confused after I talked him out of it. He scratched his head and looked at me: "What you said seems to make a lot of sense, but I still feel like something is not quite right."
"Alright, Brother Chao, stop thinking about it. Think about how many people have been ruined by the Lingxiu Cult, their families destroyed, their wives and children torn apart. Take Huang Meng, that celebrity, for example. They even made her sell her house because of them. They also tricked her into raising a bone china doll. If I hadn't intervened, Huang Meng would have died at their hands sooner or later. Even the local Lion Hunting Team is hunting them down. We just helped the Lion Hunting Team deal with them."
With that, I turned around and followed Kassan toward the cave he had mentioned.
When we left, I had Little Fatty carry Bai Yuling, who was on the verge of death, on his back; she was still useful.
We hurried along and soon arrived near the cave. Kasang pointed to a dark cave entrance ahead and said, "Brother Angkor, it's just ahead."
"Brothers, our chance to make a fortune has arrived! Charge with me!" the slovenly Taoist priest shouted.
However, at that moment, a fluctuation of Qi came from behind us. When I turned around, I saw that the Lion Hunting Team members had suddenly appeared not far behind us, and more and more people were gathering in this direction.
"Trying to run? Do you think you can escape?" Director Chang, accompanied by several skilled members of the Lion Hunting Team, strode towards us.
As soon as I saw them arrive, I turned around and winked at Li Banxian, signaling him to get ready to set up the magic array at any time.
There's a cave behind it. As long as Li Banxian sets up a magic array at the cave entrance, they definitely won't be able to get in.
Then I walked over to Director Chang and said with a smile, "Director Chang, we are all serving our respective official positions. There's no need to make things so difficult for us and keep pursuing us like this."
"Enough with the nonsense. You dare to attack our Lion Hunting Team? I think you really don't want to live anymore." Director Chang sneered.
"No, I was just joking. I wanted to see how skilled your Lion Hunting Team is. You want Bai Yuling? Well, we'll give her back to you. After that, we'll be even. We can go our separate ways, how about that?"
As I was speaking, I turned around and looked at Little Fatty. Little Fatty immediately carried the dying Bai Yuling over, put her down, and threw her towards them.
Immediately, two members of the Lion Hunting Team stepped forward and took Bai Yuling away.
At this point, Bai Yuling was no longer of any use. The magic weapon was in our hands, and her cultivation had been completely drained.
Since they want to take Bai Yuling back to claim credit, we'll grant their wish.
After Bai Yuling's cultivation was completely drained, her body was extremely weak and she could no longer speak.
After the two men took Bai Yuling away, they quickly realized something was wrong. One of them said, "Chief, Bai Yuling has lost all her cultivation. I don't know what methods they used to drain her of her power..."
Director Chang was taken aback, then turned to look at me again: "We've returned the person to us, but what about her magical artifact, the Star Banner?"
"I don't know," I said, feigning innocence.
"It was clearly your people who stole it, and you're trying to deny it? Hand over the Star Banner right now!" Director Chang said angrily.
"I really didn't know. The person who just stole the Star Banner isn't with us. If you're looking for the Star Banner, just go find him." I decided to play the rogue.
"Arrest them all. Don't let a single one escape until they hand over the Star Banner," Director Chang said again.
Just as Director Chang and his men were chasing after us, I called out, and everyone retreated and ran towards the cave entrance.
Li Banxian stood at the cave entrance, waiting for Director Chang and his lion hunting team to catch up. With a wave of his hand, Li Banxian set up a magic array at the cave entrance, creating several barriers that blocked the lion hunting team's path.
"You guys have fun here. We're leaving now. Goodbye." Li Banxian was quite polite. After saying goodbye to them, he slowly turned around and walked into the cave.
The lion hunters rushed forward angrily, trying to break the magic array set up by Li Banxian. They tried all sorts of methods, but to no avail.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Li Banxian set up the magic array so casually; it was set up by the King of Arrays of China, and it's not so easy to open.
Ignoring the lion hunting team, I continued deeper into the cave. As I walked, I tapped the Heavenly Seal to release the Enchantress.
"Spirit Spirit, go and find out where the treasure is hidden in this cave, and come back quickly."
The spirit responded, transformed into a beam of white light, and flew towards the depths of the cave.
Seeing the spirit float away, Li Chao leaned closer again and whispered, "Little Jie, why do I feel like you guys are so professional? Murder, arson, devouring cultivation, and robbing—it's practically a one-stop shop. Now you don't even respect the Lion City officials anymore?"
“Brother Chao, you’ll get used to it after doing a few big deals with us. This is nothing. Stay calm, things will work themselves out. Everything can be resolved. We’ve been to several countries and been hunted down by their officials, but we’re still doing fine now,” the slovenly Taoist priest said casually.
“Li Chao, you’ve been in the big sects for too long and don’t know the hardships of the world. These evil cultivators kill people and make a lot of ill-gotten gains. It’s no problem for you to take them. To deal with evil people, you have to fight violence with violence and give them a taste of their own medicine. Otherwise, they won’t learn their lesson. Back in the day, we brothers did a lot of this kind of thing.” Hei Xiaose added.
As we walked forward, talking, we discovered that there were quite a few rooms inside the cave, which must be the stronghold of the Lingxiu Sect.
We walked forward for a few minutes, and then Meiling turned back and told us that she had found it.
Upon hearing her say this, the slovenly Taoist priest quickly urged, "Good spirit, lead the way quickly."
The spirit floated forward for a distance, made two turns in Shandong, and reached the deepest part, where a stone gate appeared before it.
"The treasure is behind the stone gate," Meiling said, pointing to the stone gate in front of her.
"I'll smash it open!" Little Fatty immediately brandished his eight-sided purple-gold hammer and was about to rush over to smash the door.
Li Banxian stopped him, saying, "Little Fatty, don't just start hitting and smashing things all the time. It's not very skillful. I'll open it for you."
As he spoke, Li Banxian walked to the stone door and circled it. Finally, I discovered that there was a mechanism on the stone door. Li Banxian patted around the stone door a few times, and I don't know what mechanism he triggered, but with a rumbling sound, the stone door opened by itself.
