<h4>Chapter 3591: Treasure Within Reach</h4>


    He was nothing more than amb right now. They could do whatever they wanted to him.


    Even the ancestors that promised to keep him safe forgot about their words. The golden egg became the only thing on their mind. It was perfectly fine to torture Li Qiye right now.


    “Young Noble Li, time waits for no one.” One expert urged the quiet Li Qiye.


    Li Qiye nced at them and saw the greed in their eyes, no exception.


    He smiled and repeated: “The egg is bloodthirsty and evil...”


    “You don’t need to repeat this again and again, we know. Please go talk to that world draconic king.” They had no patience to listen to his annoying warning again.


    However, he ignored them and continued: “The egg wishes to devour. If anything happens to you all, don’t me me for not saying it ahead of time. It’s not toote to leave now if you want to live.”


    “Leave? The egg is right there, there’s no way we’ll leave. Just shut up and stop annoying us.” One expert loudly said.


    “Be obediently and get that creature away or I won’t guarantee what will happen next.” Sir Shang’s grip tightened on Li Qiye’s shoulder. His eyes shed with murderous intent.


    He would be the first to break Li Qiye’s shoulder and move on with crueler methods in order to obtain the egg.


    “Fine, whatever happens next has nothing to do with me then.” Li Qiye chuckled and walked towards the draconic king.


    Meanwhile, the rest of the crowd readied their weapons for a sudden attack from the king.


    Fortunately, Li Qiye chatted a bit with the king. It actually didn’t attack and only red at them.


    Nheless, the re had an icy touch and made them feel as if des were flying near their faces.


    It moved far away from the stone tform. Li Qiye followed right behind.


    “Okay, my mission isplete. The egg is right there.” Li Qiye smiled at the experts.


    The threat was gone now and the group was ready to lunge forward. They only cared about the egg at this moment. Nothing else was on their mind.


    “Rumble!” The senior defender and the other top dogs channeled their energy.


    Chaos true energy billowed like the tides. Ancestors took out their best artifacts - floating mirrors, pagodas, banners...


    These big shots immediately rushed forward andnded on the tform, inches away from the egg.


    The weakerbatants didn’t push forward right away. Nheless, they also assumed their strongest state in preparation for battle.


    Battle spirit and bloodthirst surged across the valley. They looked around since anyone could be an enemy right now, even their current allies.


    The senior defender and the ancestors took it extremely seriously. They exercise the highest caution; their eyes shifted continuously.


    They thought about who would be the first to attack them and who they should attack first.


    This stopped them from making the first move. The one to grab the egg first would immediately be the main target.


    Other members of their faction waited patiently behind for an order from the seniors.


    The atmosphere became extremely tense like a bowstring drawn to the limit, on the verge of tearing.


    “The battle is starting.” The spectators noticed the bloodlust in the air.


    Inside the valley, an elder said: “We’re not kids anymore. Let’s test our energy. Whoeversts the longest will get the egg, how about it?”


    The others exchanged nces. Sir Shang nodded in agreement: “I agree.”


    “Same.” The other ancestors and high elders also nodded. This was a better idea than a battle royale.


    They then put their hands on the tform. Those waiting behind them watched nervously. Whoever pulled their hands back would lose the chance at grabbing the golden egg.


    “Start!” They shouted in unison and channeled their vitality and energy into the tform.


    “Rumble!” The entire valley quaked as a result after loud detonations.


    These big shots were quite powerful so this total release was quite frightening. However, the quakes onlysted for a moment and tranquility returned to the valley.


    The spectators saw thepetitors firmly cing their hands on the stone tform. Their face became red; no one wanted to give up.


    Everyone was cheering for their own seniors. As time went on, their redplexion turned to white and their body started trembling.


    Thepetition wassting a while so their energy was depleting.


    “Let’s help!” One disciple shouted in support of their sect master.


    “Yes!” His fellow disciples agreed. They lined up and ced their palm on the back of the person in front. The strongest disciple stood at the front and also ced his hand on the sect master.


    “Boom!” They channeled their energy and vitality through the line, eventually ending at the sect master.


    “Cheaters!” A member of the crowd protested.
