Yan Yang spoke up. “I agree as well.”
From his point of view, a third wasn’t that much more than a fourth.
However, Nie Li didn’t believe them in the least. If there really turned out to be any treasures, then those three would fight it out!
In reality, Nie Li had made the request to test their characters. It was also designed to make them place more importance on himself as a bargaining chip. The Holy Son Li Huo and Venerable Godthunder truly had good judgement; they knew Nie Li was necessary, if they wanted their treasures!
In the meantime, Nie Li had other plans for Yan Yang.
Venerable Godthunder looked down through the tunnel, then at the other two and asked, “Who’s first?”
The Holy Son Li Huo made a decisive decision. “Each of us will send ten people down!”
“Sounds good!” Venerable Godthunder and Yan Yang agreed.
Thirty people quickly entered the path.
A brief moment later, a series of miserable screams floated through the tunnel. Three people climbed back out, all covered with injuries.
One subordinate cupped his hands and reported to Li Huo. “Report to the Holy Son! There are many traps inside. Almost all of us died after proceeding for five hundred meters!”
Li Huo replied, “Send another thirty men to investigate!”
To these major sects, lives weren’t even worth money. Were they trying to fill the traps with bodies?
Nie Li was absolutely certain that he could break the traps; however, he didn’t say so. First, he had to use up all of Li Huo’s and Godthunder’s forces!
Wave after wave descended into the tunnel. At last, someone returned to report that they’d discovered a massive underground palace filled with treasures concealed in there.
“Let’s go!” Li Huo barked as he led a group of people and charged in.
Nie Li lifted himself up and landed on the secret path as well.
Xiao Yu followed without the slightest hesitation. Wu Yazi followed behind them.
