Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 733 - 371: Sect Treasure Vault
"Of course, it's true!"
Li Yunjing smiled, looked around at the crowd, and solemnly said: "At this moment! I am not speaking to you as an individual! I am now speaking to you as a true disciple of the Shenxiao Dao Sect, promising you that if you surrender sincerely, you will receive favorable treatment!"
With these words, the crowd quieted down, each person feeling relieved.
"Alright! Li Daoyou has guaranteed it! Let's hand over our belongings!"
Following these words, Zeng Jin shouted as well. With a pained expression, he handed over everything except the magic robe he was wearing, piling the items in front.
Among the over two thousand people, Zeng Jin was the strongest. Since he yielded, the others had no choice but to comply with Li Yunjing and Liao Wanqing.
Soon, the cultivators followed suit, stepping out from the ranks and placing their belongings in front of the group.
After everyone had handed over their items, the area in front of Li Yunjing was piled high with storage-type magical treasures.
Most were storage bags, a small portion were Hundred Treasures Pouches; as for other high-level storage magical treasures, there were scarcely more than twenty.
Li Yunjing and Liao Wanqing exchanged glances, feeling quite satisfied.
As for any treasures these people might have hidden, Li Yunjing and Liao Wanqing did not plan to search them thoroughly.
They aimed to show a bit of respect, not forcing anyone into absolute despair.
"Alright! All of you sit here and wait!"
Li Yunjing then looked at Zeng Jin and said: "'Qiuye Sword Sect' treasure vault, where is it? Guide me, and if the reward is good, I can elevate your status; your future will not be worse than before!"
"Okay! I will lead the way for Li Daoyou!"
Upon hearing this, Zeng Jin felt a surge of joy. Securing his status meant even without his treasures, he could earn them back in the future.
With hopes for a comeback, Zeng Jin became more enthusiastic.
Before leaving, Li Yunjing smiled at Liao Wanqing: "Liao Fairy, take your share."
"Hmm? Not going to have a look?"
Liao Wanqing was taken aback, asking in confusion.
"With so many storage magical treasures, how can we check each one individually? Let's just divide by their quantity!"
Li Yunjing waved his hand generously.
"This... alright!"
Seeing Li Yunjing's sincerity, Liao Wanqing stopped hesitating. She swept her gaze and separated out a fifth from the large pile of storage magical treasures!
With Liao Wanqing's Dao practice, she naturally estimated accurately, with minimal errors.
This minor gain or loss mattered little to Li Yunjing and Liao Wanqing.
Neither more nor fewer by a few, no one cared. Liao Wanqing didn't aim to take advantage of Li Yunjing. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
After Liao Wanqing collected her share, Li Yunjing swept his long sleeve, and a gust of wind gathered the remaining storage magical treasures into his possession.
These storage magical treasures likely didn't contain anything substantial that could catch Li Yunjing's eye.
Inside were basic items, though even a storage bag with three to five hundred Low Grade Spirit Stones combined with other Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators' wealth could total a million Spirit Stones.
Such an impressive amount of income would suffice for Li Yunjing for quite some time.
After securing the resources, Li Yunjing wasn't worried about the rest of the two thousand people fleeing; after squeezing out the benefits, a few escapes wouldn't matter to him.
Of course, the main reason was Li Yunjing and Liao Wanqing were just two people, unable to control so many.
They intended to find the 'Qiuye Sword Sect' treasure vault and couldn't possibly take all two thousand people with them!
Untrustworthy demonic cultivators might steal treasures first and then genuinely massacre others—that's something Li Yunjing absolutely couldn't stoop to.
He'd rather let the two thousand people flee entirely than make such a choice.
The 'Qiuye Sword Sect' mountain gate was situated at the center of a pentagonal maple shape, with a small mountain there.
The entire mountain was the spiritual vein of 'Qiuye Island.'
The mountain gate established there had spiritual energy more concentrated than elsewhere on the island.
The 'Qiuye Sword Sect' mountain gate was remarkably beautiful, with flaming maple leaves overlapping, swaying in the wind, resembling a burning ocean.
"Your Sect's scenery is truly unique and stunning!"
Standing outside the mountain gate, Li Yunjing marveled at the fiery maple leaves everywhere.
Even Liao Wanqing couldn't help nodding in admiration; who wouldn't love such scenery?
"Sigh!"
Listening to the conquerors' praise, Zeng Jin felt no joy but sighed deeply.
Such commendation from enemies was indeed ironic!
The three of them entered the gate, arriving at a plaza paved with red jade, where they spotted two stone statues, one on each side, both standing with swords.
The swordsmen's robes seemed to flutter in the wind, with even strands of hair depicted in striking detail.
The statues were lifelike, seemingly sculpted to honor predecessors of the 'Qiuye Sword Sect.'
Li Yunjing and Liao Wanqing were deeply mesmerized by the statues, walking closer to examine every detail.
Li Yunjing gently touched the sword hilt of the statue, reflecting: "To carve such intricate statues, your Sect's predecessors were not only masters of swordsmanship but also of sculpting!"
Zeng Jin's face grew darker, averting his gaze from these symbols of the 'Qiuye Sword Sect's' glory.
