"What?"
Green-robed Saint Emperor's eyes narrowed as he put up his guard.
Someone had stolen a pile of crystals right under his nose without him noticing. This was a complete slap to his face.
The person with such skills must be a powerful senior. Who was this person?
"I wonder which senior has graced the Niuke Empire with his presence. Please show yourself!"
Green-robed Saint Emperor said respectfully.
At the same time, he scanned the place with his divine consciousness, not letting go of a single gap.
Everyone else also realized that the crystals had disappeared right under the nose of thousands of people. This was hard to imagine, and they all felt a chill in their hearts.
Upon hearing the Saint Emperor's voice, the entire place fell silent, waiting for the so-called senior to appear.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths … Until six breaths later, there was no movement at all.
Things had become a little strange. Green-robed Saint Emperor's mind was spinning rapidly. In these six breaths, he thought of countless possibilities, but they were all rejected.
The final conclusion was that it couldn't be a senior. Such a powerful figure wouldn't play such a childish joke with them.
Even if he was after the crystals, as long as he showed himself and expressed his intentions, who would dare to not give it to him?
If it wasn't a senior, it had to be Zhang Xing!
When he came to this conclusion, he was shocked.
However, all the signs at the scene indicated that all of this was related to Zhang Xing.
Firstly, he died too easily. He didn't even have any means to resist.
Secondly, after he died, the items that should have been dropped all disappeared into thin air. This didn't make sense.
Zhang Xing must have used some mysterious method to hide himself. If he wasn't greedy, he wouldn't have been discovered.
But now? Hmph!
He was still hiding here. He couldn't even protect his life, yet he was still thinking about those useless crystals. I'll wait for you to come out. If one day isn't enough, two days. If two days aren't enough, two years!
I don't believe you can hide forever.
Green-robed Saint Emperor closed his eyes and sat cross-legged.
"It's getting late. You all should go back."
No one disobeyed the Saint Emperor's order. They all got up and left the place in an orderly manner.
The State Preceptor, Ta He, and a dozen other big shots didn't go back. Instead, they waited outside the venue, waiting for orders.
In the blink of an eye, one night had passed. The Green-robed Saint Emperor sat cross-legged without moving, as if he was a towering tree in the venue …
Just as the first ray of sunlight shone into the venue and onto the face of the Green-robed Saint Emperor, he opened his eyes.
At the same time, the figures of more than a dozen big shots outside the arena flashed into the arena.
At the same time, their gazes landed on … the extra person in the middle of the hall.
"Zhang Xing?"
The Imperial Advisor exclaimed in surprise.
The other dozen or so people were also shocked.
What … what was going on?
How could Zhang Xing not be dead?
Last night, the Sage Emperor had ordered all of them to leave. No one dared to ask why, and the Imperial Preceptor did not dare to mention the Spirit Awakening Pill recipe again. Even though he was extremely anxious, he did not dare to ask.
The Sage Emperor sat there with his eyes closed, his face expressionless, as if waiting for something.
The Imperial Preceptor, Ta He, and the others vaguely felt that it was related to the disappearance of the crystals, but they couldn't guess the reason.
"That's right, it's me. You guys haven't slept at all. If you're tired, go back and sleep. I had a good night's sleep."
Zhang Xing bared his teeth and smiled.
"How did you do it?"
Green-robed Saint Emperor narrowed his eyes and stared fixedly at Zhang Xing.
At the same time, monstrous waves surged in his heart.
After not seeing him for a night, this child's aura had undergone a tremendous change.
He had actually broken through from the King Realm to the Monarch Realm in just one night. Moreover, he had broken through right under his nose.
