Chapter 297: The Turmoil Caused by the Baby
As soon as the mysterious voice finished speaking, the light inside the treasure chest suddenly became incredibly intense, instantly becoming like a small sun, so bright that everyone couldn't open their eyes.
As the light gradually dimmed, Liu Yu and the others were finally able to see the dazzling array of treasures inside the chest.
"Wow, what kind of treasures are these?" Xiaoqing's eyes widened, and she couldn't wait to get closer, staring intently as if she wanted to see right through the treasures.
Liu Yu picked up an ancient and mysterious-looking manual, flipped through it gently, and said, "This seems to be a peerless martial arts manual. Maybe if I learn it, I will be invincible."
Bai Suzhen picked up a jade pendant that emitted a warm glow. The pendant shimmered with a strange light, like stars twinkling in the night sky: "This jade pendant doesn't look simple either. It might have some mysterious power."
Pigsy, oblivious to everything else, hugged the pile of gold and silver treasures, his eyes narrowed into slits with laughter, and he shouted from ear to ear, "I, Pigsy, am rich! Now I'll never have to worry about food or drink again!"
Xu Xian carefully picked up a small, exquisite gourd and examined it closely, saying, "This gourd might have magical properties; perhaps it can hold all things in the world."
Just as everyone was excited and immersed in the joy of obtaining the treasure, a sudden commotion and noise came from outside.
"This is bad. The commotion may have attracted other people." Liu Yu instantly became alert, his brows furrowed, and he gripped his sword tightly.
Everyone hurriedly stuffed the treasures into their arms and then rushed out of the cave.
A group of martial arts figures surrounded the cave entrance with menacing air. The leader was a burly man with a full beard, named Hu Batian.
"Hmph, I heard there's treasure here. Hand it over and I'll spare your lives!" Hu Batian glared with his large, copper-bell-like eyes and shouted at the top of his lungs, his voice like thunder.
Liu Yu stood tall and said fearlessly, “Why should we give it to you? This is something we earned through hard work and risking our lives.”
Hu Batian sneered, his face full of disdain: "With my fists!"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly swung his fist, which was as hard as an iron hammer, and fiercely punched Liu Yu.
Liu Yu reacted quickly, nimbly dodging to the side, and then thrusting his sword sharply in a backhand motion.
Seeing this, the people behind Hu Batian rushed forward like wolves, and an extremely fierce battle instantly unfolded.
Xiao Qing shouted and unleashed her lightning magic. Instantly, lightning crackled across the sky, striking the people who were being electrocuted. They screamed and their hair stood on end, making them look like a group of charred monkeys.
Bai Suzhen gracefully moved her hands, and ice magic roared out from her hands, instantly freezing several enemies into crystal-clear ice sculptures that shimmered with an eerie light in the sunlight.
Pigsy brandished his rake, which whirred like a windmill, striking the people until they staggered and cried out for their parents.
Xu Xian was also busy using talismans to help, and although his magic was not very powerful, he was able to cause some minor interference to the enemy from time to time.
Seeing that his men were gaining no advantage, Hu Batian's face grew increasingly grim. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he pulled out a dark magic weapon from his robes—the terrifying Soul-Devouring Pearl.
"Behold my Soul-Devouring Pearl!" Hu Batian shouted hoarsely, and the Soul-Devouring Pearl instantly emitted a sinister and terrifying black light, like a demon's claw, mercilessly enveloping Liu Yu and the others.
Liu Yu and the others felt an incredibly powerful suction force coming towards them like a tidal wave, and their bodies involuntarily moved closer to the Soul-Devouring Pearl like falling leaves, no matter how much they struggled, it was all in vain.
"Oh no, this magic weapon is powerful!" Liu Yu's expression changed drastically, and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Bai Suzhen shouted, "Everyone, concentrate your strength to resist this suction force!"
Everyone gritted their teeth and unleashed their strongest spells, bursting forth with multicolored light from their hands, stubbornly resisting the dark suction of the Soul-Devouring Pearl.
Just as everyone was struggling and almost exhausted, a wild and unrestrained laugh suddenly came from the sky.
"Hahaha, a bunch of petty thieves, daring to fight over treasure!"
Everyone looked up at the sound and saw a woman dressed in white riding a flying sword, descending from the sky like a fairy.
The woman's name was Ling Xue, and she was a highly skilled cultivator.
When Hu Batian saw Ling Xue, his face turned deathly pale, and his body trembled uncontrollably: "Fairy, spare us! We'll leave now and never dare to do it again."
After saying that, he led his horde of shrimp soldiers and crab generals and ran away faster than rabbits, disappearing in an instant.
Ling Xue looked at Liu Yu and the others with disdain and said coldly, "This treasure is not something you can possess. Hand it over."
Liu Yu did not back down and looked directly at Ling Xue, saying, "Fairy, this is something we obtained after going through countless hardships and almost risking our lives. Why should we give it to you?"
Ling Xue's lips curled up into a contemptuous smile: "Because I'm stronger than you! If you know what's good for you, hand it over now, or don't blame me for being impolite."
As she spoke, she made to grab it.
Xiaoqing stepped forward and said, "Hmph, trying to steal the treasure? Not so easy! If you're so capable, come and take it yourself."
Ling Xue glanced at Xiao Qing with disdain: "Little girl, you don't know your place. Today I'll show you what I'm capable of."
An even more intense and thrilling battle is about to erupt...
