“What’s there to fear about the black market? We’re not inside it; there’s still some distance from the black market. If these guys enter it, we might have a hard time taking action, but outside the black market…”
The one who spoke earlier urged anxiously.
“Right, Boss, don’t hesitate. Earlier, Lord Mo Yun Tian from the Mo Tian Ghost Tribe wanted to obtain the treasures on them. They’re just a small Wala Insect Tribe; being a minor race among the insect tribes, it’s unlikely anyone will stand up for them.”
The others echoed, their faces revealing greedy expressions.
“Since that’s the case, let’s go, follow them.”
This group quickly followed behind Qin Chen’s party.
“Hmm?”
In the distance, heading towards the black market, Qin Chen furrowed his brows instantly. “Be careful, we’re being watched.”
As soon as he finished speaking, whoosh whoosh whoosh, several streaks of light swiftly swooped down, abruptly blocking their path.
“What does this mean?”
Ci Tianqiong’s face darkened as he scanned the few people before him, all of whom were Venerable. Among them, the leader exuded an aura that was not inferior to his own, indicating he was a master close to the Human Venerable peak.
“You should be friends of the Wala Tribe, right? We are members of the Thousand Eyes Tribe. We’ve long admired you; seeing you today, you are indeed extraordinary.”
The leading expert smiled, and the many eyes on his face shimmered as if they could see through everything.
“Lord, they are from the Thousand Eyes Tribe. The Thousand Eyes Tribe is a medium race in the universe, extremely powerful. What’s most terrifying about them is their soul secret methods. When the Thousand Eyes Secret Technique is unleashed, it can trap people in an endless illusion, which is exceedingly frightening.”
Ci Tianqiong quickly explained.
In the universe, there were countless races, and the Thousand Eyes Tribe did not actually have a thousand eyes; it simply meant they had an abundance of eyes. Under normal circumstances, having more than a hundred eyes indicated a Venerable master.
The more eyes one had, the stronger their power.
The combat strength of the Thousand Eyes Tribe was generally average; what truly made them powerful were their innate supernatural abilities, the Thousand Eyes Secret Technique. Once unleashed, it could create a unique illusionary world that warriors of the same level could hardly resist.
“Gentlemen, we of the Wala Tribe have never had dealings with you. We have urgent matters to attend to, so we bid you farewell.”
Ci Tianqiong cupped his hands and intended to lead Qin Chen and the others away.
The gnome elder beside him was also extremely anxious.
As soon as the Thousand Eyes Tribe approached, they blocked their path, and the positions several of them occupied sealed off this space and void, stirring restlessly, causing him to feel immense dread.
Any single expert among them could easily eliminate him.
“Hmm? Friend, are you refusing to give my Thousand Eyes Tribe face?”
The Thousand Eyes expert's tone instantly turned grim. The Thousand Eyes Tribe was not considered a big tribe in the universe; they were inferior to the insect tribes and could only be classified as medium. However, compared to small races like the Wala Insect Tribe, they were indeed much stronger.
Ci Tianqiong's heart sank. “Gentlemen, we truly have urgent matters. If you wish to befriend us, after we finish our business at the black market, our Wala Tribe will host a banquet for you. I hope you will honor us with your presence. As for now, please step aside.”
“Haha, honor us with your presence? You Wala Tribe think you are worthy of inviting us?”
One of the Venerables from the Thousand Eyes Tribe coldly laughed.
Ci Tianqiong’s expression darkened as he coldly said, “Then what do you gentlemen intend to do?”
If they were in the camp of the Wala Insect Tribe, he would have charged directly at them. But here, at the black market, and facing experts from the Thousand Eyes Tribe, he naturally felt apprehensive. If they unleashed their innate supernatural abilities, they were rumored to be unmatched at the same level.
