Chapter 222 Never underestimate human greed
Chapter 222 Never underestimate human greed
Facing the ridicule from a group of old monsters, Bai Yuan smiled contemptuously.
You old guys know shit. If you knew how powerful Master Shen is, you would probably kneel more obediently than him!
Shen Sangning chuckled and said, "Bai Yuan, please get up first. I have something to talk to you about..."
Hearing this, Bai Yuan stood up from the snow and said with a flattering smile: "Master Shen, if you have anything to say, just tell me! Even if I have to go through fire and water, I am willing to die!"
"It's not that serious." Shen Sangning blinked: "I just want a space crystal. I wonder if you can get it."
When Bai Yuan heard Shen Sangning's words, the flattering smile on his face froze instantly, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
"This... Master Shen, to be honest, something as precious as the Space Crystal is really hard to come by." Bai Yuan said hesitantly, with beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
Shen Sangning narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Bai Yuan with a smile, her eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, making Bai Yuan feel uneasy.
"Bai Yuan, do you have it or not?" Shen Sangning's voice was still gentle, but with a hint of playful smile.
Bai Yuan's expression became extremely tangled, and he was in a fierce struggle inside.
On the one hand, he was well aware of Shen Sangning's strength and had no intention of resisting.
But on the other hand, this space crystal was obtained by him after going through untold hardships, and it will be of great help to his future practice.
He bit his lips tightly, clenched his hands into fists in his sleeves, and kept weighing the pros and cons in his heart. Time seemed to freeze. After a long time, Bai Yuan sighed, like a deflated ball.
"Forget it, Master Shen, since you have asked, this space crystal is for you!" Bai Yuan gritted his teeth, took out the space crystal that was emitting a mysterious light, and handed it to Shen Sangning.
At this moment, the eyes of the monks around them suddenly widened, and greed was clearly visible. They were just watching the fun, but now they could no longer suppress their desires.
"How could such a treasure fall into her hands!" A sharp voice rang out, and then a monk in a black robe suddenly flew out, the magic sword in his hand flashing with cold light, and pierced Shen Sangning's back.
Shen Sangning reacted extremely quickly, dodging the attack perfectly by moving sideways.
"Stop!" Gu Zhengping shouted, "Are you all crazy?!"
"How dare you attack Master Shen?" Bai Yuan quickly stood on Shen Sangning and said with a gloomy look, "If anyone dares to take another step forward, don't blame me, Bai Yuan, for being rude!"
"Old Monster Bai, don't think we don't know. After you went crazy, your injuries haven't recovered yet, right?"
"We were afraid of you before, but now you alone are still our opponent?"
"Since you have already given the space crystal to this little girl, it has nothing to do with you. Get out of here!"
"And you, Gu Zhengping, if you don't get out of the way, don't blame us for being blind with swords."
Shen Sangning's expression turned stern, and he sneered, "Don't show mercy, let me see how capable you old bastards are."
She made hand gestures, and a gorgeous shield instantly unfolded, covering herself, Gu Zhengping, and Bai Yuan!
"Humph, I admit that you are a strong little girl. But we have more people!" The black-robed monk who had just failed in the sneak attack stood up and said, "I advise you to hand over the space crystal obediently, otherwise you will never be able to leave Kunlun alive!"
There is a covenant in Kunlun, so many cultivators know that Bai Yuan has an extremely precious space crystal, but no one dares to snatch it.
First, everyone's strength is not much different, and second, it has not come to a life-and-death fight.
It’s different now. In the eyes of these cultivators, Shen Sangning is an outsider.
The aura she exudes is indeed somewhat terrifying. If you fight her alone, no one can guarantee that they will be her opponent.
But a lone tiger cannot fight against a pack of wolves, and something as precious as the Space Crystal must not be allowed to be taken away by her!
"Let's all attack together. Whoever grabs the space crystal first gets it!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the lights of various magic weapons and spells intertwined and all hit the shield.
Bai Yuan's face was pale, and he was very upset. He really didn't expect that these old guys would actually dare to do it.
"I still underestimated the greed of human nature..." Bai Yuan thought to himself.
He now only prayed that the shield would not be broken, otherwise, facing these attacks, he would be blown to pieces.
However, no matter how frantically they attacked, the shield remained motionless. Gradually, these old guys showed shock on their faces.
"How is this possible? Such a dense and powerful attack can't break this shield!" One of the old men with long beards widened his eyes and shouted in disbelief.
"What is the origin of this woman? She actually has such powerful defensive means!" Another burly monk panted, and his hand holding the magic weapon trembled slightly.
"Why don't we just give up?" Some people began to think about backing out, their faces full of hesitation and unwillingness.
They looked at each other, the greed in their eyes gradually replaced by shock and fear. They originally thought it would be an easy snatch, but they didn't expect to encounter such a hard nail.
At this moment, Shen Sangning's cold voice came from the shield: "Tickle?"
Not very harmful, but extremely insulting!
These old guys exchanged glances with each other and hesitated a little in their attacking movements.
But greed eventually prevailed. One of the old men in a gray robe shouted, "Don't be scared by her. Let's increase our attack strength together. I don't believe we can't break this shield!"
Upon hearing this, everyone gathered their strength again and continuously injected their own spiritual power into the magic weapon. The light became more dazzling and the attack became more fierce.
But as time passed, the shield remained as solid as a rock, with no sign of breaking.
At this moment, their faces were covered with beads of sweat and their breathing became disordered.
"What kind of shield is this? It's so powerful!" Someone began to panic, his voice trembling.
The gray-robed old man who had shouted earlier was now pale. He looked at the intact shield and muttered to himself: "Impossible, absolutely impossible..."
"She must have a top-level protective magic weapon, or maybe even a magical weapon!"
"Immortal weapon?"
When everyone heard the word "immortal weapon", their eyes widened and their breathing became more rapid. In their minds, the immortal weapon was a legendary existence with the power to destroy the world.
"If it is really a magical weapon, aren't we just trying to hit a rock with an egg?"
"Humph, even if it is a magical weapon, with so many of us working together, we may be able to take it down!"
"Don't be so wishful thinking. Don't you see that even if so many of us attack together, it's useless? If we continue to fight, I'm afraid we'll lose our lives here!"
Everyone was caught up in a heated debate and entanglement, and at this time Shen Sangning had a cold expression inside the shield, with a strong murderous intent in his eyes.
"Now that you have finished your attacks, is it my turn to attack?" Shen Sangning shouted tenderly. The shield flashed with light and instantly turned into countless rays of light that shot towards everyone.
Wherever the light went, the air seemed to be cut apart, making a sizzling sound.
Upon seeing this, the monks were frightened and fled in all directions, but they were too slow. They screamed and fell to the ground one after another.
