Chapter 759: The Crime of Stealing
Chapter 759 – The Sin of Stealing
“The other party is a Harmonization Stage cultivator, really fight, I may not be able to take advantage, while he is trapped by the formation, hurry to run is the right way.”
Xu Chuniang didn’t think that she would be able to outwit Meng Yunzhou just because she had gotten away with killing the early Harmonization stage Li Ren cultivator.
Every Harmonization Stage cultivator comprehended different Law Forces, and their divine abilities and means of sparring were each high or low, so there was no need to risk life and death to cross over to face the enemy if it wasn’t a situation of last resort.
Especially now that she was regarded as a thorn in the side of the seven great families, there was even less need to waste time.
The Heaven Watching Harvest was originally a casual remark, hearing her explanation, naturally did not say anything more.
Only in his heart, and secretly to the seven great families recorded a, and so on the future of his cultivation recovery, must come back to find their trouble can not!
While Xu Chuniang was running away, Meng Yunzhou was trapped by the Three Talents Formation.
Clearly nothing around him, but he felt an invisible force of confinement between heaven and earth, sealing him in one side.
What made Meng Yunzhou even more annoyed was that this confining force was not strong, but it was inscrutable, and he couldn’t find the root cause of it.
I heard that the person he was chasing today was good at formations, and earlier he had been unimpressed, thinking that in the face of absolute strength and realm suppression, even the strongest formations would not be able to withstand a single blow.
But now, Meng Yunzhou realized that he had been careless and underestimated the other party’s strength.
His face darkened a bit as he took out a heavy axe and swung it in all directions.
Since this heaven and earth had trapped him, he would break this heaven and earth!
I don’t know how many times he swung the axe, but Meng Yunzhou suddenly felt that the feeling of bondage on his body disappeared.
His face was joyful, he had finally broken this formation!
It was just that a little over half a day had passed since he was trapped, and looking at the other party’s escape route, he was afraid that he had already left on the teleportation array.
Meng Yunzhou’s face condensed as he unleashed his Shrinking Ground divine ability and rushed towards the nearest small town.
But when he arrived, he was still a step too late, and just happened to meet the city lord who had learned the news and rushed to deal with the matter.
Seeing Meng Yunzhou’s arrival, the City Lord hurriedly greeted him.
“Sage Monarch Meng’s presence here is truly magnificent!”
Meng Yunzhou waved his hand to dispense with his salute and swept over the messy Teleportation Hall, frowning as he saw that all the teleportation arrays leading to the west had been destroyed.
The City Lord was afraid that he would blame him and hurriedly explained.
“Just now I received news that some thieves broke into the city and went straight to the teleportation hall, also injuring several people and destroying several teleportation formations.
I rushed here after I got the news, but I still couldn’t stop the thieves!”
Speaking of this, the City Lord couldn’t help but have some speculations in his heart, that thief had just left on the front foot, and Sage Sovereign Meng had chased after him on the back foot, could it be that that thief was acquainted with Sage Sovereign Meng?
Meng Yunzhou retracted his gaze, a flash of coldness in his eyes.
“Where did that thief go?”
“Back to Saint Sovereign Meng, that thief went towards Cloudborder City.”
Cloud Border City was a small city with only Void Refining Stage cultivators, and it was also the westernmost place that this place could be teleported to, so she had indeed gone towards Cloud Border City.
Seeing that he was silent, the city lord bravely said, “Dare I ask Lord Saint Sovereign, does that thief have a problem with you?”
Meng Yunzhou said indifferently, “That thief was originally a ground level scholar in the Heavenly God Academy named Xu Chuniang, who had also been rewarded by the Mountain Chief and befriended my seven great clans.”
The city lord was slightly startled, although he was the lord of a city, when it came to status, he was only slightly higher than the Xuan ranked academy officials in the Heavenly God Academy, and was slightly inferior to the Earth ranked academy officials.
I didn’t expect that the thief who just escaped, actually had such a status, no wonder the guards in the temple, none of them were her enemy. “She is both the academy school official, but also with the various family friendship, and how to fall into the thief?”
“Ultimately, it’s because I don’t know people well.”
Meng Yunzhou sighed softly, “I’m ashamed to say that I saw her lack of strength at such a young age, so I looked at her differently, but I didn’t know that I was actually leading the wolf into the house.
A few days ago, she stole my Meng family’s innate treasure, the Xuanhuang Pagoda, I originally did not want to publicize this matter, and thought of recovering the treasure privately, but the matter has come to this point, it is impossible to explain to the clan.”
“It was actually the Xuanhuang Pagoda that was stolen when it lost its guard!”
The city lord’s face changed, the Xuanhuang Tower is an innate treasure, second only to the existence of Immortal Artifact Qi and Half Immortal Artifacts, the other party dared to steal this thing, the guts are too big.
Stealing the Meng Clan’s most precious treasure, even if she had the Harmonization Stage cultivation, she would no longer have a foothold in the Human Race.
Meng Yunzhou nodded with a helpless expression on his face.
“If she stole other treasures, for the sake of the Heavenly God Academy, it would be fine for my Meng family to suffer this loss.
But the Xuan Huang Pagoda cannot be lost, this item must be recovered, otherwise when the clan’s honored ones ask about it in the future, Mister Meng will lose face.”
The City Lord shook his head in disapproval, “The seven great families have great merit in my human race, and the venerables are the backbone of my human race, holding up millions of miles of mountains and rivers of my human race.
Not to mention that she stole the Xuan Huang Pagoda, even if she only stole a grade 5 spirit object, such a villain will definitely be disallowed by my Human Race, I still ask Sage Monarch Meng to issue a wanted notice to recover the Xuan Huang Pagoda at an early date.”
Meng Yunzhou nodded slightly, “It can only be so, if she learns from her mistake and hands over the Xuanhuang Pagoda in time, my Meng Clan is willing to forget about it.”
“Sage Monarch Meng is highly righteous, it’s just that the thief who stole the Xuanhuang Pagoda may not be willing to hand this item back since he made this move.”
The Meng Family was very fast, almost as soon as Meng Yunzhou returned to Xian City, the wanted notice was sent out.
After hearing about this, the cultivators in the city were shocked.
“It’s fine that the Xuanhuang Pagoda is an innate treasure, but Scholar Xu is a young man who has become a ground level scholar in the Heavenly God Academy, and can be considered to have a promising future, isn’t it self-destructive for her to act in such a manner?”
“Having said that, there is a hurdle between the Refined Void Stage and the Harmonization Stage, a hurdle that will sift through to drop ninety-nine percent of the cultivators, and only a very few will be able to break through the shackles and cultivate to the Harmonization Stage.”
“That’s true, it wouldn’t be hard to understand if School Master Xu, realizing that he wouldn’t be able to break through the Harmonization Stage for the rest of his life, made such a move.”
In the crowd, many people’s eyes flickered.
The Xuanhuang Pagoda was an innate treasure, and it was rare for ordinary people to come into contact with treasures of this level.
If they could find Xu Chuniang and kill her before the Meng Clan did, wouldn’t they be able to obtain the Xuanhuang Pagoda?
For a time, people’s hearts were stirring, and some people immediately spied on Xu Chuniang’s whereabouts, trying to grab the Xuanhuang Pagoda before anyone else.
At the time when the news was spreading widely, Xu Chuniang, who had fled to Yunbian City, once again injured the guards of the teleportation hall in Yunbian City, and went to the western side of Musha City.
As soon as she entered Musha City, she sensed that something was wrong, and that formations had been set up around the teleportation hall, and all the teleportation arrays could only go in, not out.
I’m afraid that this formation, was aimed at her!
Skywatcher also sensed the gravity of the atmosphere and cursed.
“These lineages are moving really fast, it seems that after fleeing this city, we can’t go near either town anymore.”
