What the eldest senior brother said was indeed true. The scene outside the mountain gate was simply jaw-dropping - the treasures that were seen everywhere were scattered all over the ground.

Xu Jie looked at the scene in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel confused. How could so many treasures appear here for no reason?

Could it be that someone accidentally left it here? As soon as this thought came to his mind, he quickly rejected it.

Are you kidding? One can imagine how much the monks value their treasures. How could they lose them so easily?

Even if it was accidentally lost, it is impossible to lose so much at once.

But who exactly is Xu Jie? He is the kind of person who would pluck a few feathers from a passing goose and kick a passing dog.

Although this matter was full of weirdness, for Xu Jie, it was enough to confirm one key point.

That is - these treasures are absolutely genuine.

As for why they appear here... huh, why bother about it.

Anyway, he had picked them up, so they belonged to him. Thinking of this, Xu Jie happily hugged all the treasures into his arms, and then walked towards the sect with a swagger and satisfaction.

In the darkness not far away, several figures were silently watching Xu Jie's series of smooth movements.

The expressions on their faces were varied, some were extremely surprised, while others looked at each other in amusement and tears.

Just now, the boy had no reaction to the treasures in front of him, as if these priceless treasures were just stones on the roadside to him.

However, this boy was completely different at this moment. When he saw the treasure, his eyes instantly flashed with greed, as if he wanted to swallow all the treasure.

Not only that, this kid's decisiveness and swiftness were astonishing, and the whole process was done in one go without any hesitation or dragging.

The difference between these two people is so huge, it's like one is as cold and ruthless as an iceberg, while the other is as passionate as a raging fire.

We are both disciples of the Daoyixian Sect, so how different are our ways of dealing with people?

This strong contrast made everyone present feel extremely uncomfortable. They opened their eyes wide, opened their mouths, and were unable to recover for a long time.

After a long time, they slowly regained their composure and took a deep breath, trying to calm their shock.

One of them muttered to himself.

“Fortunately, it succeeded in the end.”

Another person nodded in agreement.

"Yes, now that the treasure has been pocketed by Daoyi Xianzong, they have nothing to say now."

Then someone suggested.

"Let's go back first."

After today's contact with the disciples of Daoyi Xianzong, these people felt that the Daoyi Xianzong seemed a little weird and exuded an evil aura.

But they did not think too much about this matter. After all, the plan had been successfully accomplished, and for them, this was enough.

On the other side, Xu Jie, who had returned to the cave, was staring with joy at the pile of treasures he had picked up from outside the mountain gate.

The dazzling array of rare treasures exuded an alluring glow, making Xu Jie so happy that his mouth almost stretched to his ears.

He was so excited that he danced and muttered to himself.

"Haha, there are so many treasures. Is this overwhelming wealth finally going to befall me, Old Third Xu?"

At this moment, Xu Jie was completely immersed in joy and had no idea that he had actually fallen into a trap carefully designed by others.

The town on the other side was bustling with people coming and going, each busy with their own affairs.

In the backyard of the canteen located in the center of the town, Ye Changqing had no time to pay attention to the hustle and bustle of the outside world. He was concentrating on cooking delicious meals in the fire room.

Although Ye Changqing successfully broke through to the Immortal King realm not long ago, he did not become complacent or slack off because of it.

Because he knew very well that compared with top monsters like Tianlin, there was still a certain gap between him and himself. Only by continuous hard work and cultivation can he truly stand at the top of the fairy world.

Ye Changqing moved around in the kitchen, skillfully displaying various cooking techniques. Pots, pans, and bowls collided with each other, making crisp and pleasant sounds. The blazing fire reflected the red of his focused face. After most of the day's hard work, one dish after another, delicious and beautiful, finally came out of the pot.

When night fell quietly, Ye Changqing let out a long sigh of relief and walked out of the kitchen, dragging his slightly tired body.

At this time, Ye Changqing's forehead was slightly sweaty, but his face was filled with a satisfied smile.

He walked to a lounge chair in the middle of the yard, sat down slowly, and prepared to take a rest.

Just as I closed my eyes and wanted to enjoy this moment of tranquility, a hurried sound of footsteps came from afar.

Then, Li Chengshan walked quickly up to him, bowed, and spoke.

"Master Ye, there are several guests outside the door who want to see you. They claim to be here to talk about the robbery."

"The thief's door?"

Hearing this word, Ye Changqing suddenly opened his eyes, and a sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.

For some reason, now whenever the word "thieves" was mentioned, his heart would tremble involuntarily, as if some bad memories came to his mind.

Just like those people today and yesterday, although they said nice things, they were really fierce when it came to ordering dishes, otherwise I wouldn’t be so busy until now.

But there's nothing I can do about it since I owe them money.

Besides, hadn't the previous trouble with the "thieves' door" been completely solved? Why did these people come to the door again? Could there be another hidden story? Thinking of this, Ye Changqing frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Li Chengshan on the side asked cautiously.

"Master Ye, do you want me to turn them away?"

Ye Changqing thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Forget it. Since they have come to visit specially, they must have something important to tell you. Let them in first."

Li Chengshan took the order and left. Not long after, the few people who had been hiding outside Daoyi Xianzong during the day came in one after another and walked into the yard.

Several people saw Ye Changqing sitting on the recliner at a glance, grinned, and greeted him enthusiastically.

"Mr. Ye, I apologize for disturbing you so late at night."

"Yes, if it wasn't urgent, we wouldn't be doing this."

After some polite exchanges, Ye Changqing invited everyone to take a seat and then went straight to the point.

"You elders just said that the Thieves' Sect robbed your treasure house. What does that mean?"

As he spoke, Ye Changqing glanced at the few people with a strange look on his face.
