Chapter 2946
As soon as the Golden Furies made their presence known, Yuan Bao quickly grasped the situation and swiftly handed over the jade token he had in his possession!
If he complied, he would have a chance to live; however, if he allowed them to rob him, it would mean certain death!
Observing Yuan Bao’s prompt surrender of the jade token, the Golden Fury chose not to make things difficult for him. Instead, they accepted the token and gently inserted it into the opening of the gate!
The jade token slid in perfectly, and as the ground trembled, the treasure gate began to radiate a brilliant golden light!
No one could tell if there were traps or concealed weapons waiting beyond the gate!
After a brief tremor, the gates creaked open, releasing a wave of warmth from the treasure trove!
This extreme northern region was typically frigid, requiring cultivators to shield their bodies with spiritual energy to endure the harsh climate!
An ordinary person would likely succumb to the cold in no time!
As the warmth enveloped them, everyone’s expressions turned to astonishment, and they felt an incredible comfort wash over their bodies!
“There must be something inside this treasure land that is generating heat,” one of the Golden Furies remarked, gazing deep into the Land of Treasures without rushing to enter!
“Whatever lies ahead, let’s venture in and see. An ancient body refining treasure can’t be that perilous,” declared the Wood Fury, boldly stepping forward!
Before long, several members of the Five Elemental Heavenly Furies followed suit, and the other cultivators, encouraged by their confidence, also stepped through the gate without opposition from the Five Elemental Heavenly Furies!
Yuan Bao hesitated momentarily but ultimately steeled himself and ventured into the treasure area!
Just as Yuan Bao crossed the threshold, a dozen individuals with concealed auras appeared at the entrance to the Treasure Land!
After a quick glance at the entrance, they too decided to follow suit!
………………
The Gao family!
Gao Qisheng rushed back, panting heavily.
Noticing Gao Qisheng’s distressed demeanor, Gao Qiang inquired, “Why do you look so upset? What happened?”
“Big brother, we’ve discovered the treasure site!” Gao Qisheng replied, catching his breath.
“Oh?” Gao Qiang nodded, not overly excited, and asked, “If you found it, why did you return?”
“The people from the Demon Sealing Alliance demanded the treasure key from us before entering the trove,” Gao Qisheng explained. “We had a disagreement, and despite our efforts, we were overpowered and forced to retreat.”
“Brother, where is the Grand Elder? I need to gather more men and deal with the Demon Sealing Alliance. This is our Gao family’s territory; they have no right to act so brazenly here!”
Gao Qisheng was adamant about reclaiming their dignity!
Gao Qiang shot a cold glance at him, frowning slightly as he advised, “Do you ever think things through? You can’t spend all your time fighting and chasing women…”
“You need to stay put and wait for Mr. Chen to recover before you go off on another adventure.”
“Mr. Chen? Who is Mr. Chen?”
Gao Qisheng was taken aback; he had never seen his brother speak of someone with such reverence!
“The two girls you were interested in are friends of Mr. Chen. If Xiaolan hadn’t intervened, you would have put our Gao family in serious jeopardy.”
“When Mr. Chen wakes up from his training, you need to sincerely apologize and admit your mistakes,” Gao Qiang instructed firmly.
“At your age, you should be more observant—look at others and compare!”
Gao Qiang chastised Gao Qisheng for his reckless behavior!
Despite his dissatisfaction, Gao Qisheng kept his feelings in check, nodding and saying, “I understand…”
“Go on, focus on your training. Look at your current abilities; your progress is slower than a snail’s crawl. You’re squandering so many resources,” Gao Qiang waved him off.
Gao Qisheng remained silent as he left, his face contorted in displeasure!
