"Please, brother, can you shut up. I would rather let you be the boss, okay? Don't we look like gods for those who are looking at us from down there?" Ye Xiao made a long sigh, "I finally see your true face now. The only thing you are good at is being pretentious. Nothing more. Who on earth was so stupid to give you that title? It is such a waste. It ruins the words…"
Han Bingxue was annoyed and felt awkward, but couldn't think of any words to argue. He was speechless.
At this moment, below the words, the rolling purple qi slowly formed a platform, which seemed to be quite solid.
In the center of the platform, there was an obvious handprint.
'Operate the martial art on the hand and put it on the handprint perfectly. Operate the energy in dantian in the number of nine and open the door!'
More words showed up one after another.
"That's easy." Han Bingxue smiled and stepped ahead in a big step. "Let me do it, Boss!"
He wanted to do it, not because he wanted to take the profit it might bring to them, but in fact, he did it in case it was a trap that would challenge Ye Xiao's cultivation capability or something. Ye Xiao was weak. He would very like fail if it was a trap.
Han Bingxue had no idea whether he could pass the challenge or not, but he was surely much tougher than Ye Xiao at the moment.
It was definitely a right thing for him to do after all.
Before Ye Xiao answered, Han Bingxue's hand was already covered by frost. Cold flowing qi was around his hand and he slowly put the hand onto the handprint.
Technically, his hand was a bit bigger than the handprint, but he could still put his hand on it. "In the number of nine. Well, that must be running it for nine cycles. That's short…"
He started to push the circulation of his inner spiritual power.
The next moment, the cold qi was running wildly inside his body.
However…
"Holy hell!"
Han Bingxue exclaimed.
The platform suddenly glared dazzling purple light that shined the entire world. Ye Xiao felt like he was blind and couldn't see anything anymore. After a while, he heard Han Bingxue exclaim in a terrified voice and then it became silent.
The purple light was twisting as if it met something special…
When he opened his eyes, he found…
Han Bingxue was gone!
Han Bingxue actually disappeared!
[What the hell?]
He was frightened, so he hurriedly looked around to look for Han Bingxue. For him, no matter how mysterious, valuable, and marvelous the platform was, it could never be compared to his brother!
Maybe the platform knew what Ye Xiao was thinking, so the purple qi started to move again and showed a few more words.
'Who pretends to be with qualifications will be banished by heavens!'
Ye Xiao was shocked.
That was obvious… Han Bingxue wasn't qualified, but he did it anyway, so he got banished!
However, no matter how he was banished, it was a good news for Ye Xiao. At least Han Bingxue was only banished, not killed. He was alive.
That was a good news as long as he was still alive!
Where was he banished to?
That was not important to Ye Xiao, not at this moment at least!
Other than that… Ye Xiao had an idea that was so shocking in his heart… [Is this platform… conscious?]
[Maybe… it can communicate through mind connection to me? It receives my mind?]
[Otherwise, how is this possible?]
After a short time of thought, he turned around and wanted to check if Han Bingxue was banished to the outside of this layer. When he just turned around, he found that the door that he had just opened, the entrance of the fourth layer… had been closed!
In other words, he was locked inside this place alone!
He was stunned. After a while, he took a deep breath and murmured, "According to what Ye Shangxin said, once the door is closed, it will take at least two hours before it will open again. I wonder if it is the same in the fourth layer. Anyway, I will have at least two hours here. Let me bet with my fate! Let's see… whether I am who you have been waiting for… the monarch you await!"
Although he saw it as a bet, he didn't dare to be reckless. He quietly operated the East-rising Purple Qi. The purple qi suddenly rolled up from inside his dantian. Within just a moment, it had run for one circle.
Ye Xiao slowly reached his hand out.
The rolling purple qi covered his entire hand. His hand looked like a crystal purple jade at this moment!
He slowly moved his hand to the purple handprint and put his hand on the handprint little by little…
Outside the mountain.
Ye Clan and Li Clan each took one side.
Ye Tianchen looked worried, with his hands behind the back. Li Clan's senior elder was also nervous.
It was their first time to explore the third layer of Heaven Treasure Mountain. It was something that concerned both of their futures.
The two of them both expected their own disciples could collect more than the other…
While they were waiting with anxiety, they didn't even want to have any row. They just kept waiting quietly.
They were waiting for the result…
Suddenly!
A few figures showed up from the mountain, moving down in frustration.
Four men.
All were Li Clan's men!
The others all looked at the four men.
Ye Tianchen frowned. Li Clan elder raised up his eyebrows.
"What's wrong? Why do you four come out so soon? Did anything happen?" Li Clan elder stood up and asked with a frown.
The four men spoke with a frustrated face, "Yes, you can say that. The young man did open the third layer… But… When the door was just opened, a huge crowd of spiritual beasts raged up inside."
"Beasts crowd? How come?" Ye Tianchen and Li Clan elder both asked.
"Yes. It is. Countless spiritual beasts ran over to the entrance of the third layer. The beast of lowest level is level six. There were lots of supreme spiritual beasts beyond level eight and level nine. It was difficult for Dao Origin Stage cultivators to defend, not to mention us." Li Clan people was still in fear. This man's face was pale and he said, "We were at the back of the group… We saw how terrible things became, so we quit… Otherwise…"
"What about the others?" Li Clan elder asked.
"I am afraid…" The man answered, "I am afraid… they are gone…"
Ye Tianchen humphed. Li Clan elder humphed too.
They both had the same thought in mind. [How is this possible? Did we just lose the great opportunity?]
On the other side, Xuan Bing, who was wearing all black, blandly said, "What about that white clothed man who stands beside Master Ye?"
She was asking about Han Bingxue.
