39: Chapter 39 What do you mean by being robbed? It's just that they weren't strong enough.

"Liang Zhang, do you believe I'll slice off that little bird of yours down there for what you said to my father today?"

A woman's voice came from beneath the black robe.

Upon hearing this voice, the youth in white said in surprise, "Wang Quanwu, you... you... how are you here?"

As the black robe fell away, Wang Quanwu appeared, dressed in a tight-fitting battle suit that perfectly outlined her slender figure.

She was like a rose on the battlefield, heroic and spirited.

"Hmph, watch my sword!" Wang Quanwu didn't offer him an explanation, instead controlling the Profound-grade treasure sword in her hand to slash at Liang Zhang.

Seeing the aggressive Wang Quanwu, Liang Zhang did not face her head-on, but instead kept dodging her attacks.

"Wang Quanwu, are you crazy? I only went to find the Villa Master to say I wanted to marry you, why do you have to make such a big fuss?"

"Is it not okay for me to like you? You're so beautiful, are you not allowed to be pursued?"

Liang Zhang said while dodging.

The power of the Profound-grade treasure sword instantly split the teahouse into several pieces.

Seeing Wang Quanwu pressing forward aggressively, Liang Zhang did not intend to remain passive any longer.

"Thousand Illusions Technique!" Liang Zhang shouted softly.

His eyes gradually turned brownish-cyan.

The next moment, Wang Quanwu's eyes became vacant, her consciousness began to blur, and her body froze in place.

"Brother Liang, is she the apple of the Divine Sword Villa's eye, Wang Quanwu?"

"Mhm!!" Liang Zhang replied.

"Brother Liang, why don't you just take her now? Once the raw rice is cooked into porridge, you'll definitely be able to enter the Divine Sword Villa."

"By then, wouldn't any peerless immortal sword be within your grasp?" the fat man said with a lecherous smile.

However, these words seemed to touch Liang Zhang's reverse scale, and he looked at the fat man with fierce eyes.

"If you say such things again, don't blame me for being heartless."

Seeing Liang Zhang get angry, the fat man quickly apologized.

"Brother Liang, I was wrong, I won't say such things again."

"Alright, now send Wang Quanwu back, then we'll go to that pleasure district."

The fat man didn't understand; the beauty was right in front of them, why was Liang Zhang still pretending to be a gentleman?

Chu Chen observed all of this from the shadows, not expecting this woman to be the apple of the Divine Sword Villa's eye.

She must have many good things on her.

Thinking of this, Chu Chen wore an evil expression. "It's time for me to make an appearance."

"Fellow Daoist, hand over the things on you, and I might spare your life."

Abruptly, a voice reached the ears of Liang Zhang and the fat man, instantly startling them.

"Who is it? Sneaking around, get out here!" Liang Zhang scolded.

The next second, another figure draped in a black robe walked out.

Why was his luck so bad today? First, he was chased by Wang Quanwu with a sword, and now another black-robed person had appeared.

Liang Zhang's anger flared up, and he looked at the black-robed person with fury in his eyes.

"Sneaking around in the middle of the night, you'd better explain yourself clearly, or you'll have a hard time."

Facing Liang Zhang's threat, Chu Chen smiled faintly. "Fellow Daoist, you wouldn't want this matter to be known by the Divine Sword Villa, right!"

Chu Chen took out a recording stone. "Fellow Daoist, this not only records what you just did, but also the conversation between you and that damn fat man."

Liang Zhang's eyes were cold. "What exactly do you want!"

"Simple, hand over your spatial ring, and also give me her spatial ring, and this recording stone will naturally be returned to you."

"I can give you my spatial ring, but I cannot make decisions for hers," Liang Zhang replied.

Upon hearing this, Chu Chen said unhurriedly, "I think you have no choice. This is your last chance; otherwise, I'm leaving."

"You... shameless! A dignified cultivator actually using such low-class methods to threaten others, aren't you afraid of being ridiculed if word gets out?" Liang Zhang said angrily.

"Oh! Then you don't need me to leave." After saying that, Chu Chen turned around as if to leave.

"Wait!!" Liang Zhang shouted, then took off the spatial ring from his hand.

He also gently removed Wang Quanwu's spatial ring and threw them both to Chu Chen.

After receiving the spatial rings, Chu Chen crushed the recording stone in his hand.

"Fellow Daoist, actually I was lying to you; there was no recording at all."

As the words fell, before Liang Zhang could react, Chu Chen's figure disappeared.

Liang Zhang didn't even know how he had disappeared.

"Brother Liang, it seems you've been played, and Miss Wang Quanwu's spatial ring has also been taken!!"

"By then, Miss Wang Quanwu might really eliminate Brother Liang."

The fat man added from the side, striking a blow.

"Ahhh!!! You damn liar, don't let me run into you, or I'll dig up your ancestors for eighteen generations."

Liang Zhang said in a rage.

At this moment, Wang Quanwu's consciousness recovered, and she discovered that the spatial ring on her finger was gone.

She immediately said angrily, "Liang Zhang, return this young lady's spatial ring, or I will split you in two today."

At this moment, even with several mouths, Liang Zhang couldn't explain it clearly.

"Wang Quanwu, it really wasn't me, forget it, I can't be bothered to explain to you." Liang Zhang imitated Chu Chen and ran away in a flash.

This night was destined to be sleepless.

Afterwards, Chu Chen found a few more fat sheep, but for these ones, he used force to suppress them and snatched all of their spatial rings.

Returning to the inn, Chu Chen began to count his spoils and practiced his Thunder Extreme Intent.

The soul imprints left on these spatial rings were easily broken.

There was a dazzling array of spirit stones piled up like a mountain, but there were no demon sealing stones in any of these spatial rings.

Over the next three days, Chu Chen marked high-cultivation prodigy cultivators during the day and began seizing treasures at night.

However, for three consecutive days, Chu Chen did not find any demon sealing stones, making him suspect that perhaps only by robbing disciples of sacred lands could he obtain them.

And today was the day the Divine Sword Villa was holding the Divine Sword Assembly.

"Have you heard? A black-robed thief has been appearing these past few days, specializing in robbing cultivators' spatial rings."

"And this black-robed thief doesn't know what cultivation technique he practices, but he runs extremely fast, and there's simply no catching up to him."

"Really? Then I won't dare to go out at night; what if I get robbed?"

"Forget it, the black-robed thief wouldn't even bother robbing you for your meager belongings; the ones suffering are the prodigies from major factions."

"Even if you gave me those few spirit stones of yours, I wouldn't want them, let alone the black-robed thief."

Upon hearing this, Hua Xuan looked at Chu Chen suspiciously.

"Brother Chu, you've been running out every night these past few days; that black-robed thief wouldn't be you, would he?"

Chu Chen laughed, "What black-robed thief? It's just that my strength is greater than theirs."

"If they get robbed, they can only blame their own lack of strength."

"That's true, but why does it feel strange?" Hua Xuan looked at Chu Chen, thinking that it was most likely Brother Chu who did it.

"Alright, the Divine Sword Assembly has started, let's go join in the fun."

Chu Chen didn't know the rules either, so he followed behind these cultivators all the way to the Divine Sword Villa.

"Swish!!"

A huge shadow covered everyone below in the sky.

Looking up, it was a massive wine gourd floating in the sky.

Then the wine gourd rapidly shrank, and several figures jumped down.
