As everyone looked on eagerly, it was clear they were all prepared and ready.
"Miss, are we really not going in?"
Not far away, Yang Mu frowned as he watched the crowd cracking their knuckles impatiently. His face was full of dissatisfaction and urgency.
The treasure was right before their eyes, which made him very uncomfortable.
"Yes miss, the mechanisms inside the tomb have already been completely triggered. Putting aside other elixirs and martial arts, just the three unclaimed saint artifacts are worth fighting for!"
Beside him, Yang Sen, who rarely spoke, also voiced out, "With our combined strength, we can easily obtain one artifact, if not all three. This is a great opportunity that has fallen onto our laps. Why are you so stubbornly listening to Lu Qingshan's nonsense?"
The two had angry expressions, unable to understand why Yun Xianque was so unlucky.
Upon hearing this, Yun Xianque bit her red lips tightly, her face filled with struggle and hesitation.
Judging by the current situation, what Yang Mu said was reasonable.
In the entire Nansha, Martial Venerables were the top combat strength. With two Martial Venerables present, they could at least obtain one of the three saint artifacts.
But...
Was this tomb really as simple as it seemed on the surface?
Was Lu Qingshan really exaggerating?
It didn't seem so at all!
Because she could sense the gravity in Lu Qingshan's warning. As a local power, he would not have ignored this tomb if he didn't receive definite information.
After all...
No one in this world could resist such an opportunity.
Moreover, there was the previous incident as a lesson.
"We're not going in!"
Yun Xianque gave a firm reply.
"You..."
"Sigh!"
The two elders heaved heavy sighs, their expressions showing their disappointment. But there was nothing they could do to change Yun Xianque's mind.
"Lu Qingshan, I hope things are really as you said."
Watching more and more people arrive, Yun Xianque murmured while looking at the ancient tomb.
Clearly...
Although she appeared firm on the surface, making this decision still took great courage.
She was also under tremendous pressure.
At this moment, more silhouettes flashed through the air.
It was the people from Blowing Snow Mountain Villa and Heavenly Sword Sect.
"Everyone sure arrived quickly!" Fifth Sky landed and fanned out his feather fan, laughing leisurely.
Behind him were not only the fifth group, but also an elder Yun Xianque had never seen before. He was clearly a reinforcement sent by Blowing Snow Mountain Villa.
"Arriving quickly is useless. We'll see who luck favors in the end." Behind her veil, Peng Xianer scoffed coldly.
Beside her were also two Martial Venerables. Of course, Yu Wujie was with her as well.
Fifth Sky narrowed his eyes but did not speak. He was clearly wary of Peng Xianer, Heavenly Sword Sect's once-in-a-century genius.
However, his gaze soon fell upon Yu Wujie.
"Oh, isn't this the brother who snuck into the Earth Gate and opened the Heaven Gate last time?" Fifth Sky said in surprise. "Truly admirable. Not only did you open the Earth Gate, but also escaped unharmed. I'm impressed!"
"Oh?"
"The one who opened the Earth Gate last time?"
Hearing Fifth Sky's words, many people looked over and sized up Yu Wujie.
Even Yun Xianque, who had no plans to enter the tomb, glanced over.
Clearly...
News of the previous incident had already spread.
Although there were unexpected dangers in the ancient tomb last time, being able to sneak into the Earth Gate alone was still a valiant feat.
After all, not everyone could accomplish it.
"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you."
"Reputation is no match for seeing you in person!"
"Although your strength is somewhat lacking, your courage and valor are admirable!"
"Brother, are you interested in joining my Heavenly Tyrant Sect?"
"Brother, consider my Ling Tian Gate as well!"
In a moment, many people greeted Yu Wujie and voiced their admiration. At the same time, some extended olive branches to him.
Clearly...
Talents like him were welcome anywhere. His strength might be lacking, but his capabilities were invaluable!
"Huh?"
Hearing these voices, Yu Wujie was first stunned. Then, comprehending the situation, he immediately became elated.
These people were at least at the Martial King realm. Some who greeted him were even Martial Emperors and Martial Sovereigns.
In his entire life, Yu Wujie had never received such treatment!
He couldn't help but smile smugly, standing taller as he laughed, "Gentlemen, Yu Wujie at your service. A pleasure meeting you all!"
"So it's Brother Yu."
"Brother Yu, well met."
Another round of flattery ensued.
Fifth Sky also spoke, "Brother Yu, exceptional talents like you are also welcome at my Blowing Snow Mountain Villa!"
"That's right, talents like Junior Brother Yu are needed at my Wind and Cloud Valley. Feel free to join us directly if you are interested!" Yun Xianque chimed in. Although she gave up on the treasures, bringing back a top expert would be an unexpected joy.
Hearing this, Yu Wujie became even more excited. He never expected that major powers like Wind and Cloud Valley and Blowing Snow Mountain Villa would extend olive branches to him.
This was the pinnacle of his life!
In that moment, he felt like he was floating, the corners of his mouth raised to the heavens.
"Hmph, do you have my Heavenly Sword Sect's consent to try and recruit him?" Just then, Peng Xianer's icy voice sounded from beneath her veil.
The elated Yu Wujie immediately sobered up. He smiled smugly and waved his hand, "My apologies everyone. I already belong to Xian'er. My apologies!"
"No offense taken, Brother Yu."
"Since Heavenly Sword Sect has staked first claim, we shall not steal their joy!"
Everyone indicated they took no offense, but their faces still showed regret.
After that...
Everyone's attention returned to the open stone door of the ancient tomb.
It was clear that there was no more movement within the door. The permeating black fog and illusions from before seemed to have already dispersed.
At this moment, the crowd was strangely silent.
Suddenly...
Someone made a move.
And with that one action, everything was triggered.
Innumerable figures shot up into the sky, charging towards the stone door.

ave】 Shen Qingling was a man with peerless looks, a cunning mind, and the ability to play both the aloof noble and the innocent sweetheart—a master of seduction who could outplay any player. But after an untimely death, he found himself bound to a system and transmigrated into the tragic "true young master" of a melodramatic novel. In the original story, his childhood sweetheart treated him as a backup plan, his fiancée swore to break off their engagement for the sake of the "fake young master," and his own sister saw him as the family's disgrace. He was nothing more than a rat everyone wanted to stomp on. System 077: "Your mission is to change the original fate and conquer the goddesses." Shen Qingling: "Thanks for the invite. If seduction had tiers, I’d be max level." His childhood sweetheart knelt, begging for forgiveness: "Qingling, I was wrong. Please give me another chance." His ex-fiancée refused to marry anyone else: "Shen Qingling, I was blind before. In this life, I’ll marry no one but you." A yandere CEO went mad for love: "Shen Qingling, you can only like me. I’ll stop at nothing to make you mine!" His green-tea sister clung to him daily: "Brother, look at me, won’t you? I’m more obedient than them—I love you the most~" At first, they scorned and trampled on him. Later, they burned themselves like moths to a flame, all for his sake. His looks were his weapon, his sweet words the bait—heroines obsessed over him, villains turned to madness for him. Shen Qingling became a true male siren, igniting battlefield after battlefield of women fighting for his affection. Years later, when System 077—now one of the elites—was asked how to become as outstanding as it, it lazily exhaled a smoke ring and replied: "Just know how to cheer ‘666’ at the right time."
