Chapter 484 This little brat doesn't even respect me anymore.
Chen Tianba looked at Xingchen Daoist with resentment: "Master, can't you do something about Junior Sister? It's so dangerous for her to be out there all alone?"
Daoist Xingchen was even angrier: "Mind? How could I possibly mind?! That girl is already at the Golden Core stage! Her mastery of formations is even higher than mine!"
"Not to mention her combat strength. Last time, she was at the peak of Foundation Establishment and could fight a Nascent Soul cultivator. Now that she's reached the Golden Core stage, even I might not be able to beat her. How am I supposed to manage her?"
Xiao Qiushui suddenly remembered something and pointed at Xingchen Daoist's nose, saying, "Master! When Junior Sister went out last time, did you know but not tell us, and deliberately keep it from us?!"
Master Xingchen blushed and said, "What nonsense are you talking about! I... I was only thinking about Ruge's safety!"
"You just want to eat it all by yourself!"
Chen Tianba also realized what was happening, his eyes widening in disbelief. "Master, you're so unfair! We've all been completely open with you, trusting you so much, and yet you don't think about us disciples when it comes to your own benefit!"
"Bullshit! Do you think I'm that kind of person?!"
"You are!"
"Rebel!"
Just as the six disciples were arguing, another streak of light flew in from afar. Qinghe Daoist landed on the peak and looked at the empty Jade Maiden Peak cave with a resentful expression: "That little ancestor Ruge has gone out again?"
Master Xingchen said irritably, "Uncle-Master, what brings you here too?"
Qinghe Daoist sighed, "I'm not worried that she might make a mistake while practicing, after all, she's so young and her cultivation speed is too fast."
The concern is beyond words.
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions grew even more resentful.
Xiao Qiushui squatted on the ground and drew circles: "Junior Sister is so unfair, she always goes out to play alone."
Chen Tianba gritted his teeth: "Next time she comes back, I'm going to pester her to take me with her!"
Ye Xinghe silently turned around: "I'm going to cultivate. My strength isn't enough; my junior sister won't take a liking to me."
Lu Haoran immediately followed: "I'll go too."
Xiao Changkong looked at his junior brothers and shook his head with a wry smile.
He was actually most worried about Shen Rugo's safety. Wanbaoge was no benevolent organization, and his junior sister's constant "robbery" would inevitably lead to big trouble sooner or later.
But he also wanted to go out and see the world with his junior sister!
Daoist Xingchen gazed northwards and murmured, "Where has this girl gone to make her fortune this time?"
Seven days later, in the western part of the Northern Region, in Blackrock City, the largest city in the Northern Region closest to the Star Palace.
Shen Rugo stood on the second floor of the teahouse opposite the Wanbaoge branch, observing quietly.
Zhao Cai tucked into her sleeve and whispered, "Your Highness, this city isn't very big, but I sensed several fire-attribute magic treasures in the storeroom, and they're of pretty good quality."
"You gluttonous, smelly lucky charm, all you know is your fire-attribute treasure."
Shen Rugo took a sip of tea and complained.
At 11:45 AM, in the backyard of the Wanbaoge branch.
The guards on patrol suddenly swayed, and before they could react, everything went black, and they all collapsed to the ground.
Shen Rugo appeared like a ghost, raising her hand and tapping the warehouse door seven times.
The protective array on the gate flickered a few times and then quietly dissipated.
She pushed open the door, and Zhao Cai immediately rushed in, heading straight for the fire-attribute treasure.
Shen Rugo was not idle either. She cast out runes that transformed into nets like giant hands, grabbing all the treasures in the warehouse and throwing them into her huge storage bag.
The whole process took no more than ten breaths. By the time Shen Rugo left with Zhaocai, the warehouse was completely empty, not even a shelf remained.
The second city, the third city, the fourth city...
Shen Rugo swept through like a hurricane, seizing the Wanbaoge branches in four major cities in just five days.
No matter which city it was, once she succeeded, she immediately rode her light shuttle and fled far away, traveling 30,000 miles a day, giving her opponent no time to react.
The Northern Treasure Pavilion is in complete chaos.
Northern Region Branch Headquarters, Skyfrost City.
Branch President Han Shuang Zhenren's face was ashen, and he crushed the teacup in his hand into powder.
The eight Nascent Soul elders below dared not breathe and all bowed their heads.
"Four cities! Five days! The warehouses were completely looted! All the guards were drugged and don't even know what the thieves look like!"
Frost Immortal's voice was icy cold, "What are you all good for?!"
An elder, steeling himself, said, "President, that thief's methods are unpredictable; he specializes in breaking formations and moves like the wind. We..."
I don't want to hear excuses!
Master Han Shuang interrupted him, "Orders have just come from headquarters that five cities in the Western Regions have been robbed and the thieves have not yet been caught. Now it's our Northern Regions' turn!"
If that thief succeeds again, I might as well give up being the branch manager!
Another elder said, "President, that thief is extremely vicious and cunning. We must strengthen our defenses, and we must focus on protecting him!"
"Focus on protection? You mean concentrate all the treasures?"
Frost Immortal sneered.
"That's impossible. There are so many cities in the Northern Region, and they are far apart. How could they all be gathered together in such a short time?"
What I mean is, let's concentrate our efforts on defending the largest cities!
The man shook his head.
"You mean, transfer all the Nascent Soul experts to the branches in the major cities of Cangnan City, Xuanbing City, and Yanyang City, so we can wait for them to attack?"
"Master Han Shuang's eyes lit up."
As soon as he finished speaking, an elder hesitated: "Wouldn't that leave the branches in other small towns completely unprotected and vulnerable to being slaughtered?"
"You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub." A ruthless glint flashed in Frost Immortal's eyes. "This is the only way now! As long as that thief dares to come to Cangnan City and Xuanbing City, eight Nascent Soul cultivators and forty level-five talismans will ensure he doesn't leave alive!"
"In addition," he added, "all the warehouse arrays have been upgraded to the Nine Palaces Spirit Locking Array. This array has no fixed array core and is constantly changing. Unless you are a master of arrays, it is extremely difficult to break."
Everyone took the order and left.
Frost Immortal looked out the window and muttered, "You scoundrel, I'd like to see if you dare to come."
When news from the Northern Region reached the headquarters of Wanbaoge, Patriarch Lingxiao was once again enraged.
"The Northern Region has also been robbed?"
Frost is useless too!
"Send reinforcements to the Northern Region to assist Frost in setting up an ambush. That thief must be captured!"
An elder cautiously asked, "Grand Master, what about the Northwest Region..."
"do it according to plan."
A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of Ancestor Lingxiao. "Xuanming has already set off. Star Pavilion Chamber of Commerce, humph, no matter who their backers are, we must find them and kill them this time, and at the same time annihilate the entire Star Pavilion Chamber of Commerce!"
"On the Tianyuan Continent, only our Wanbao Pavilion can exist!"
Shen Rugo stood atop a mountain outside Cangnan City, gazing at the brightly lit metropolis.
Having seized four cities, the spoils are enough to last until the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm; logically, it's time to stop.
But Zhao Cai (a person seeking wealth) will not agree.
"Your Highness! Take one more! Just one more!"
Zhao Cai jumped around on Shen Rugo's shoulder, its voice urgent, "I sensed that there are top-grade fire spirit crystals in the Cangnan City warehouse! At least three! And a Crimson Sun Fire Lotus! It will be of great help to my breakthrough to the late Golden Core stage!"
Shen Rugo frowned: "Cangnan City is the center of the Northern Region, only ten thousand miles away from the Wanbaoge branch. There must be heavy troops guarding it."
"What are you afraid of!"
Zhao Cai puffed out his sparsely haired chest, "I'm now in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm! One breath of fire can burn to the early-stage Nascent Soul realm! Your Highness, you're also in the Golden Core realm, your combat power is comparable to the late-stage Nascent Soul realm! If we join forces, we'll be invincible below the Deity Transformation realm!"
Shen Rugo looked at the greedy, bald chicken and felt both annoyed and amused.
But to be honest, she also wanted to test her current true combat strength.
"Alright, let's grab this last one. But you must follow my instructions and not act rashly."
