Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty-Three: There is a price to pay for taking things
"I have no objection. After all, my old man said that among these ruins, some are strong and some are weak. The more difficult the ruins are to open, the greater the opportunities hidden in them. At the same time, the greater the dangers.
If you enter rashly, you may not even know how you died."
"The hearts of the people are not enough. Snake swallows the elephant. With these strange beasts as trophies, this trip is not in vain. The news about the ruins can be handed over to the higher ups."
"Moreover, even if we don't say it and want to guard this place, does Elder Zhao think we can bear it?"
"Is it true that only the four of us know about the ruins?"
"Don't forget, there was a strong man in the Xiantian realm who left before. A senior who doesn't know the enemy or is lurking in the dark. He doesn't know his intentions, nor his good and evil. The news that we have left the ruins is also a hidden danger, but it's a hidden danger.
It’s better to hand over the information about this ruins to the authorities.”
"When the time comes, we will take action in an official capacity to find the key to the ruins."
"If we really find it, Elder Zhao, you can use your achievements at this time to ask your Zhao family to get more places to enter the ruins, right?"
"Some benefits may seem attractive, but in fact they are illusory. It is not as comfortable as some benefits that are small but tangible."
While Wang Xuan was talking, he glanced sideways at Lu Chengan.
Lu Chengan was startled, and he immediately reacted, but he couldn't help but feel a little scared in his heart.
He really ignored something just now.
That is, the strong man in the innate realm.
Innateness is the current ceiling for ancient warriors. It is not that easy to break through the ceiling.
It is even more impossible to steal the relics for oneself without telling that Xiantian realm expert.
so……
After Zhao Anmin thought about it for a while, he felt that what Wang Xuan said was very reasonable. He nodded repeatedly, settled the matter, and reluctantly agreed to Xiao Wen's proposal.
Seeing Zhao Anmin, Lu Chengan had no objection. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he glanced at Xiao Wen with gratitude, expressing his gratitude to Xiao Wen.
After all, he is still an official.
There are some things that he can't control whether others do it or not, but as an official, he should proceed from Kyushu and the level of national justice.
However, even if there were some things he wanted to say, because he was the weakest among the three, he did not dare to say them out, so he could only bury these words in his heart.
Fortunately, Xiao Wen helped him say what he said.
For this, Lu Chengan felt grateful and thought about giving the only energy crystals he had to Xiao Wen.
After all, in Lu Chengan's opinion, the reason why Xiao Wen didn't want the energy crystals of those alien beasts was probably because he set his target in the ruins.
However, the door of the ruins it targeted could not even be opened.
In this way, wouldn’t Xiao Wen return empty-handed?
In addition, this guy has something to say, even if he regrets it in his heart, he still can’t bear to ask for his face again, right?
The thought flashed through his mind, and then Lu Chengan made up his mind and decided to give all the energy crystals of the alien beasts in his hand to Xiao Wen.
As for himself, the news of those corpses and this ruins was enough.
If he informs his superiors of this information, his future path will definitely become broader, so he doesn't have to worry about these things.
However, when Lu Chengan took out these things and handed them to Xiao Wen, Xiao Wen was obviously stunned for a moment, and then stared at Lu Chengan with a strange expression, vaguely guessing what this person was planning.
"Team Leader Lu, are you going to give me your trophy?" Xiao Wen raised his eyebrows and asked in a slightly surprised tone.
Lu Chengan nodded without denying: "You deserve this."
"No need, I'm not interested in these things. Unless they are fifth-order or higher-level energy crystals, they won't be of much use to me."
"So, you should keep these things by yourself. With your current cultivation level at the quasi-grandmaster level, and with the help of these energy crystals, you can probably reach the grandmaster level in a short time."
"By the way, there is one more thing I forgot to remind you. I seem to have read in an ancient book that there are restrictions in some relatively advanced ruins. If you take the things in the ruins, you must complete one thing required by the owner of the ruins.
"
"This seems to be called cause and effect! However, there is no need to consider this thing now. After all, this is something that only those who have reached the innate realm and broken through to the martial arts supreme need to consider."
At this point, Xiao Wen couldn't help but add something aloud.
As soon as these words were spoken, all three of them, except Xiao Wen, stopped in their tracks.
Lu Chengan and Zhao Anmin stared at Xiao Wen with puzzled faces, and the latter even wondered whether Xiao Wen was being alarmist.
Only Wang Xuan, with a serious look on his face, looked down at the energy crystals in his pocket and thought about whether to throw them away.
Those two guys didn't believe Xiao Wen simply because they had never encountered such a thing before.
But Wang Xuan is different. Even if he has never encountered it, he still knows some similar news.
Moreover, these news are also found in the many classics passed down in Shushan.
"According to the records in the classics, the tomb that can exert the power of cause and effect must be at least a martial arts saint or above, right?" Wang Xuan's mouth twitched and he stared at Xiao Wen and asked.
"Otherwise?" Xiao Wen nodded and asked.
The Supreme Saint of Martial Arts, also known as the Martial Saint, is a level above the Supreme Saint of Martial Arts.
One step further up this realm is the Martial Arts Emperor, also known as the Martial Emperor.
And between the sage of martial arts and the great emperor of martial arts, there is another artificially divided realm, which is the quasi-emperor.
The realm of quasi-emperor is the realm that Xiao Wen reached in the previous life.
Faced with Xiao Wen's honest answer, Wang Xuan fell into silence. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, but he didn't say a word. He just widened his eyes silently, stared at Xiao Wen, and then looked at the energy crystal in his hand.
Then he silently collected the crystal in his hand.
"It's just some cause and effect, but it doesn't matter. If you want to know the cause and effect, you have to reach the peak state of innateness."
"With the presence of fourth-level energy crystals, your realm can quickly break through to the grand master realm."
"Every peck and every drink has its own destiny, isn't it?" Xiao Wen said with a smile, which made Wang Xuan feel a little at ease in his heart.
However, after Xiao Wen said these words, Wang Xuan stared at Xiao Wen with his eyes, and then asked coldly.
"Since you said it so nicely, why don't you get a few energy crystals yourself?"
Xiao Wen:……
This guy is very suitable for development at the construction site.
Apart from anything else, his ability to argue is top-notch.
"The things are of no use to me, so I didn't take them." Xiao Wen spread his hands and said honestly.
However, when these words came out of his mouth, several people did not believe them at all.
