Black Cloud Earth Venerable let out a cold snort and said, “Considering the faces of the friends present, I can reluctantly agree to this method.”
Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts let out a sigh of relief and turned to Qin Chen, saying, “Friend from the True Dragon Tribe, since Black Cloud Earth Venerable has agreed, why don’t you show your storage space to Black Cloud Earth Venerable? With so many people watching, if he fails to find treasures from his own tribe, we will naturally seek justice for you. What do you think? This also proves your innocence.”
“What does everyone think?” Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts asked the other venerables present.
Behind Qin Chen, the other venerables by the Soul Lake squinted their eyes, remaining silent as they pondered, their lips curling into cold smiles.
In fact, several venerables beside Black Cloud Earth Venerable chimed in, agreeing that this idea was not bad.
“Friend, with everyone watching, you don’t have to worry about Black Cloud Earth Venerable coveting the treasures in your storage space. This is indeed the most suitable method,” Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts smiled as he encouraged Qin Chen.
“Are you done with your little performance?
It was well done.”
Clap, clap, clap! Qin Chen smiled and began to applaud, “If this is all just a show, you can step aside. I’ve finished watching and it’s time for me to leave.”
“You…” Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts’ face suddenly soured, “Friend, I am trying to help you!”
Black Cloud Earth Venerable’s expression also turned grim.
As for the other venerables around the Soul Lake who were watching this scene, they wore strange expressions; they all knew what the Shadow Demon Clan and Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts were trying to do. No one would believe this nonsense about stealing treasures; it was clear they were trying to frame this True Dragon Tribe person. However, they didn’t expect Qin Chen to speak so decisively, clearly not afraid of offending the Shadow Demon Clan.
“Friend…” Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts wanted to say something, but Qin Chen directly waved his hand, cutting him off. He smiled calmly, but it was also very cold. Lazily glancing at Black Cloud Earth Venerable and the others, he slowly said, “What do you want to do? I know, and I’m giving you two choices: either leave immediately or I will personally kill you and kick your heads away. Which do you prefer?”
Qin Chen’s words left everyone around stunned. Wasn’t this too domineering and arrogant?
Even some earth venerables present furrowed their brows. Although they didn’t particularly like Black Cloud Earth Venerable, they understood he was a venerable of the Shadow Demon Clan. In terms of status and strength, very few here could compete with him, and he was undeniably a major figure. Although Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts was slightly weaker than Black Cloud Earth Venerable, he was not an ordinary person either.
For the other venerables present, whether it was Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts or Black Cloud Earth Venerable, neither was someone to be easily provoked. They represented not just themselves but also a powerful clan behind them.
Although the True Dragon Tribe’s status was transcendent, they could never confront a top-tier clan like the Demon Tribe.
“You… you are courting death.”
Black Cloud Earth Venerable’s face darkened completely, and a chilling light erupted from his eyes. He believed he had shown enough courtesy to Qin Chen and had given him a way out, but unexpectedly, this guy was so ungrateful.
“Friend, Black Cloud Earth Venerable has already agreed to my proposal. You are only seeking your own demise…” Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts was about to say something, but before he could finish, Qin Chen suddenly let out a cold laugh.
Boom! Before the other’s words could finish, Qin Chen’s palm shot out like a bolt of lightning.
Roar! Instantly, a shocking dragon roar echoed across the heavens and the earth. Qin Chen’s claw, covered in sharp armor, transformed into a towering dragon claw and appeared right in front of Spirit of the Wind and Ghosts.
