Although Bro's strength wasn't much, his running speed was incredibly fast, and Xia Jian chased him for three minutes but still couldn't catch up.

"That bastard, no wonder he's still alive."

As Xia Jian watched Bro's retreating figure, he couldn't help but mutter to himself, wondering whether he should activate the forbidden Soul Absorption Technique.

After all, most of the first-tier wizards are dead now, and it's not easy to recover in such a desolate place.

and……

Xia Jian turned to look behind him. The sounds of fierce fighting continued and seemed to be getting closer.

That big rock we just saw was caused by the fight over there; big rocks keep flying over along the way.

Suddenly, Xia Jian turned around and looked at Bro, a strange look in his eyes.

"Hey, you didn't take something you weren't supposed to take again, did you?"

Summer shouted loudly at Bro in front of him.

Bro turned his head and smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Hehe, well, these are all unclaimed items. What do you mean by whether or not to take them? Whoever sees them owns them."

Upon hearing this, Xia Jian was speechless.

I have to say, this guy is a real talent!

I can't speak for anything else, but his ability to steal, cheat, and cause trouble is top-notch. Even Xia Jian would want to give Bro a big thumbs up.

Xia Jian's eyes darted around slightly, a glint of greed flashing in them.

The item in Bro's possession was coveted even by fourth-tier wizards, so it was definitely not something ordinary.

"Stop and give me the stuff, and I'll let you go this time."

Seeing Bro still running wildly, Xia Jian pretended to speak, waiting for Bro to stop before activating the Soul Absorption Forbidden Technique to kill him instantly.

"I can give you the things, but there's no way I'll stop now, so just give up on that idea."

Bro took out a square box from his spatial bag and waved it in front of Natsumi.

The box is about 30 centimeters wide and is engraved with openwork patterns. A spherical object can be vaguely seen in the center.

Xia Jian narrowed his eyes, trying to discern whether Bro was telling the truth or not.

The main issue is that while the box looks exquisite, it lacks any elemental variation, making it appear more like a decorative item.

"Are you sure you don't want to stop so I can check it out?"

Seeing that Bro refused to stop, a cold glint flashed in Natsume's eyes, and he said in a cold voice.

This can't go on forever. If Bro insists on going his own way, he doesn't mind expending more energy.

As the elemental power around Xia Jian began to gather, Bro also sensed that something was wrong.

"Wait, wait! I have the key to get out. If you dare lay a hand on me, I'll crush it!"

Bro took out a white jade hollowed-out sphere from his pocket, looked at Xia Jian who was preparing to unleash a powerful attack, and pretended to crush it.

"Hey, hey, just kidding, just kidding."

Seeing this, Xia Jian waved his hands repeatedly, fearing that Hakimi might do something inappropriate.

"This is the treasure we retrieved from inside; it's yours now."

As Bro ran, he used telekinesis to gently place the box on the ground.

Looking at the box on the ground, Xia Jian was completely confused by Bro. Why did he give it to him so easily?

Xia Jian's eyes were full of vigilance. Could this be a trap?

But just then, Bro's voice came again: "I forgot to tell you, your teacher stole this."

"I was originally going to take it with me, but since you want it, here you go. If you lose it, it's not my problem."

Upon hearing this, Xia Jian instantly lost interest. After all, what good could be related to Mu Shuang?

Of course, he didn't know whether Bro was lying or not.

However, thinking about what might happen if he encountered Mu Shuang later, Xia Jian pondered for a moment and then used telekinesis to put the box into a separate spatial bag.

Bro, on the other hand, sighed with regret.

Mu Shuang did indeed snatch the item, but she accidentally knocked the box away during the fight.

He sneaked into the ruins hoping to find something of value, but all he found were a pile of useless books.

By sheer coincidence, the box fell right in front of him.

He then received a telepathic message from Heramons, instructing him to take the key to the ruins and leave.

Perhaps it was greed that got the better of them; they had originally planned to hide it away secretly.

But after running for so long, he calmed down and was afraid that Xia Jian might actually kill him in a fit of rage.

There's also something related to my uncle.

After all, this thing is likely the most precious item in the entire ruins, and his uncle, who has just been promoted to the fourth rank, probably can't handle it.

If anything happens, the entire family will suffer.

Unless Mu Shuang doesn't survive, but that's impossible...

…………

And so, Bro ran ahead while Natsumi chased after him, and the two of them, chasing and fleeing, soon arrived near the entrance to the ruins.

Just as Bro was about to use the key to open the gate, he saw that there was another entrance not far away.

At this moment, Bro and Natsume were filled with questions, not understanding who had opened the entrance to the ruins.

Moreover, Heramons said there was only one key, otherwise other factions would never have allowed the wizards of Nilbella to enter the ruins.

Furthermore, the footprints they left when they entered were still there, but the location of the entrance was clearly different from before.

But after only a moment's thought, the look of doubt in Xia Jian's eyes turned ruthless.

Now that the entrance has been opened, it means that Bro is no longer of any use!

Sensing Xia Jian's murderous intent, Bro turned his head stiffly: "Brother, how about we talk this over? I'll give you the key, and you won't kill me, okay?"

What do you think?

Xia Jian's lips curled up slightly, revealing a cruel smile.

"Look! Someone's there!"

Suddenly, Bro pointed to the gray fog to the left of the entrance and shouted.

Xia Jian thought Bro was making a last-ditch effort, and smiled disdainfully, his expression becoming increasingly excited.

He would soon be free from Mu Shuang's control; how could he not be excited?

"Laughable, you think I'm with you..."

Before Xia Jian could finish speaking, a bolt of lightning pierced through the mist and struck Xia Jian directly into the ground.

Bro stopped and looked at the large crater behind him, muttering under his breath, "I told you, but you just didn't believe me."

Turning to look at the person using magic to attack at the entrance, their black robe was adorned with blood-red patterns.

Bro connected this to the black witch who appeared in the ruins, and the other party's identity was obvious.

"Hehehe... I didn't expect there would still be two fish that slipped through the net."

The man in the black robe let out a strange laugh, his indifferent gaze as if he were looking at an ant.

Suddenly, Bro raised his hand and spoke like a schoolchild: "Um, can I ask why villains always laugh like that?"

"Is that the point?! Shouldn't you be afraid?!"

The man in black robes shrieked like a rat whose tail had been stepped on.
