Chapter 2307: Chapter 2308: Crimson Flame Sect
"Who is spreading rumors here, hiding and not daring to show themselves!"
The Clan Leader was extremely angry, and after hearing this sentence, his face turned a mix of pale and blue.
But after that figure finished speaking, he suddenly disappeared, leaving no trace of his voice.
However, those words seemed to serve as a reminder to the people present. They pondered, and when they looked at the Clan Leader and the bearded man, there was a bit more suspicion.
"Instead of being entangled here, it’s better to just get out quickly."
A sudden loud, mocking laughter came from afar.
Before the sound completely faded, a few large figures emerged in the distance. These men were all wearing fiery red robes, with golden-edged cloud patterns embroidered on the sleeves.
"It’s the Crimson Flame Sect!"
Everyone’s hearts sank at the sight, and they gasped in astonishment.
Originally, they were just ordinary cultivators from Qingmu City. Facing a sect with a history of hundreds of years, their confidence wavered. To clans like the Fang family, they could still contend somewhat, but upon seeing the arrival of members from the Crimson Flame Sect, they dared not entertain even the slightest thought of resistance.
This was not only because of the unmasked aura of their Spirit Embryo stage, but also due to the formidable force behind these people.
The Crimson Flame Sect was extremely domineering; whatever they set their eyes on, they must acquire.
Coincidentally, this sect is also known for being highly protective. Regardless of a disciple’s strength, bullying within the sect is permissible, but outside? No way!
As such, the sect’s cohesion was incredibly strong, and ordinary people didn’t dare provoke them.
Now that they appeared here, it meant the treasure that had appeared was out of their reach.
"Ha, I told you to take action earlier, now see the result."
The same bearded man looked towards the approaching group and sneered. Those who were here earlier were not feared, but those of the Crimson Flame Sect were truly to be dreaded.
If they provoked these disciples of the Crimson Flame Sect, the consequences would not be easy to resolve.
The bearded man took a step back, his gaze lingering on a protruding object in greed, but no matter how great his obsession, now he absolutely couldn’t touch it.
He could only cast an unwilling glance toward it, snort lightly, and then leave.
They were thieves, skilled in agility but limited to that. Realizing things wouldn’t go their way, they were reluctant to linger here any longer.
"Clan Leader, what do we do now if we keep staying here..."
An elderly voice came from behind Jiang Wei, who appeared heavily apprehensive as he looked into the distance.
"Let’s wait and see. Even if we can’t get it, let’s at least find out what’s inside!"
Jiang Wei’s eyes flickered, showing much unwillingness.
Indeed, after racing here for so long, being ordered to leave by the Crimson Flame Sect left a bitter taste, and the dissatisfaction was understandable.
"Sigh, this area originally belonged to the Crimson Flame Sect’s borders. I didn’t expect them to arrive so quickly."
Tang Ming sighed lightly, but quickly returned to normal. He wasn’t as obsessed with the object as others were, considering his weak cultivation and holding only a shred of hope.
"Crimson Flame Sect, huh?"
Lin Chen’s lips slowly curled into a sneer. He wasn’t unfamiliar with the Crimson Flame Sect; when he first arrived in the mystical realm, he encountered them, witnessing their arrogance and dominance firsthand.
"Why are you all still here? Do you want to be personally seen off?"
These words were incredibly domineering, causing the expressions of everyone present to change and become pale.
It was an unmistakable threat, and as he completed his sentence, an intense aura radiated from him, spreading around.
The power of his Spirit Embryo stage cultivation unfurled completely at this moment, an overwhelming aura pressing upon them like a mountain, making it difficult for them to breathe.
Among them, the strongest had barely entered the early Spirit Embryo stage, and their strength was naturally inferior to this seasoned member of the Crimson Flame Sect.
As this aura spread, everyone’s faces changed, and their bodies retreated. Standing on the lake’s edge, they took several steps back, looking at the Crimson Flame Sect’s people walking in the air, their faces showed varying degrees of reluctance and anger.
Some even clenched their fists in dissatisfaction with the Crimson Flame Sect’s actions, the veins on their fists bulging in anger.
However, their anger never turned into action. After pondering for a moment, they loosened their clenched fists, bowed their heads, and shook them, turning dejectedly back the way they came.
The arm simply couldn’t overpower the thigh.
"That’s more like it." The leading member of the Crimson Flame Sect sneered disdainfully. With a slightly raised head, he exuded arrogance.
"Isn’t that Uncle Jiang?"
As the Crimson Flame Sect approached, a figure emerged from behind the leader.
It was a young man, looking no older than eighteen or nineteen, with a hint of childishness on his face. Yet, there seemed to be an innate superiority in his gaze, which landed on people uncomfortably.
That gaze swept up and down Jiang Wei’s group, causing Jiang Wei to furrow his brows slightly but then quickly return to normal.
His face formed a slight smile, nodding towards the young man and exclaiming, "I didn’t expect to run into you, Yuwen, my nephew."
This person was named Jin Yuwen, the one Jiang Wei had mentioned before, who was about to marry Jiang Ningyan.
With his appearance, Tang Ming’s expression turned sour.
Despite Jin Yuwen’s current demeanor, if something displeased him, he would mercilessly beat the offender, exhibiting extreme mood swings.
"Is Uncle Jiang also coveting this lake’s treasure?" Jin Yuwen looked at Jiang Ningyan, his gaze falling onto her chest, then asked an indifferent question.
This gaze made Jiang Ningyan slightly uncomfortable, but Jiang Wei seemed oblivious. He gazed at Jin Yuwen as a senior would his junior, smiling.
