Chapter 1339 - 1315: Conflict!

"Quick!"

Elder Mu Han and the others sounded extremely anxious as they rushed toward the second floor together with the rest.

Upon reaching the second floor, Elder Mu Han immediately scanned the surroundings. Shortly after, his eyes lit up when he spotted several wooden bookshelves not far away, loaded with numerous bamboo scrolls.

Sima Nan's eyes also brightened; another room on the second floor was filled with various musical instruments as well as swords, spears, and staffs.

In the eastern room, there were ink paintings, calligraphy sets, and other miscellaneous items.

As they rushed to the second floor, countless expert fighters dashed into different rooms, greedily eyeing the items they had marked in their minds.

A group ran straight toward the room of paintings. Upon entering the room and seeing it full of artworks, their eyes gleamed as each reached out to snatch the paintings.

Others, with sharper eyes, immediately grabbed the long brushes displayed there, and a melee quickly ensued.

One expert from Dragon Domain also seized a brush, but when another tried to take it, he suddenly swung the brush, releasing a terrifying Qi Force from its tip that rippled across the ceiling.

A brush comparable to a supreme Magical Artifact?

Everyone around was dumbstruck, and once they recovered, a mad scramble ensued for the rest of the calligraphy sets on the table.

Inkstones, pen rests, anything that could be grabbed was taken away; even the cabinet in the room was not spared, with all its miscellaneous items and decorations seized.

Someone grabbed a painting, but the other end was immediately held by another, and in a moment of force, it tore with a ripping sound.

In mere moments, a room that was once filled with elegant tranquility turned into a scene of chaos.

The other rooms fared no better; people swarmed in, emptying them of all weapons!

Others targeted the musical instruments, taking everything — bells, neatly arranged zithers and lutes, flutes and pipes, nothing was left untouched.

Some even resorted to outright fighting over a single instrument, disregarding any courtesy.

Around them, others ignored the scuffle, consumed in their frenzied grabbing.

In another room, all the clothing was seized along with household items like teacups, plates, boxes, and peculiar herbs; nothing remained!

In the last study, Elder Mu Han and others grabbed plenty of jade scrolls, shrunk them, and stored them directly in their storage pouches.

Sima Nan and others snagged some weapons and musical instruments, while other experts took items such as incenses.

After about five minutes, the chaos on the second floor finally subsided, and all items were divided up with everyone having grabbed something.

After the grabbing was over, they suddenly realized: Where was Ren Feng, who had entered first?

He was the first to come up and should have gotten a lot of good stuff, but why hadn't they seen him?

Some furrowed their brows, immediately considering whether Ren Feng had gotten something better.

Then someone realized: "He's on the third floor!"

As soon as they spoke, those who caught on quickly rushed to the third floor!

The stairway to the third floor didn't have an Array like the second, and upon reaching, they found it largely empty, with only two items present!

One was a statue of a woman in the center, so lifelike it seemed alive, breathtakingly beautiful; behind it was a painting, in front of which stood Ren Feng, appearing entranced as if lost in madness, unmoving.

Beyond that, there was nothing else!

The whole room was empty!

These experts were dumbfounded; something wasn't right — it made no sense for the second floor to have so much and the third floor to have almost nothing!

Long Yue and others also arrived on the third floor, seeing Ren Feng stand there dazed, their expressions filled with confusion.

"Why are there so few things on the third floor?"

One expert frowned, speaking up.

"Impossible!"

"Yes, impossible, the third floor surely has many items." Another expert said.

"Where did the items go?"

"That's something he should answer!" One expert pointed at the immobile Ren Feng, eyes gleaming with coldness: "Of everyone on the second floor, he was the first to come up and the first to reach the third floor! Besides him, I can't think of any other reason explaining this!"

"Yes, hand it over!"

One expert coldly spoke.

"Hand it over!"

All the experts' eyes turned towards Ren Feng, standing with his back to them, their voices resonant with intensifying murderous intent!

Long Yue's face showed anger and surprise; she stepped out and called loudly, "Did you all forget that it was Ren Feng who broke the Array when we first came in? If he hadn't broken the Array, could you have even entered?"

Seeing Long Yue step forward, the other Dragon Domain guards felt uneasy, and Long Su and others also stepped out to stand beside Long Yue.

Elder Mu Han looked serious, and Sima Nan and others also sensed trouble, stepping out to position themselves behind Ren Feng.

"Array?" One person sneered. "You might be getting things mixed up, that was an agreement — he broke the Array, we let him choose three items; it's just a transaction, nothing else involved."

"Yes, selecting three items, that's the transaction, unrelated to other matters; he got what he wanted." Another chimed in.

"Matters concerning transactions are naturally part of the transaction; should feelings be considered?"

Several experts' eyes gleamed with cold and murderous intent; when it comes to interests, what place is there for feelings?

Originally, everyone was strangers; now Ren Feng occupying the entire third floor single-handedly is leaving no room for others, blocking financial paths like killing a parent, and Ren Feng's action now is akin to a vendetta!

Long Yue looked at these people, genuinely both angry and anxious, her face even colder: "What about the second floor? On the second floor, if he hadn't broken the Array, you wouldn't have gotten up here either!"
