Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Young Master Lu, where are we headed next? Back to Black Rock Village to find your little sweetheart?"

Having finally escaped with his life, Gu Canyang was in a good mood.

After all, Lu Feng has now formed a blood oath with the Treasure Basin. If the basin is trapped and dies in the Nameless Valley, his fate as a remnant spirit will not be much better.

"No."

Faced with Gu Canyang's suggestion, Lu Feng shook his head, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes. "Let's settle accounts with those stinking rats from the Tomb Raiders Sect first...!"

As a former disciple of the Tomb Raiders Sect, Lu Feng was extremely familiar with the sect's various branches and personnel deployments.

He used to be hunted down all over the world by the Tomb Raiders, and he almost lost his head several times. Now that his strength has greatly increased, he naturally wants to settle this blood debt properly!

After all, it is not gentlemanly to leave a grudge unavenged, especially since Lu Feng's feud with the Tomb Raiders was no ordinary one!

...

On the other side, the main hall of the Tomb Raiders' headquarters, the White Tiger Hall.

"Haha, you two are finally back...!"

Seeing that Cui Gu and Ji Rufeng had arrived late, a burly, bald man with a giant axe at his waist also stood up. At this moment, a smile appeared on his face covered with a thick beard, as if he had been waiting for the two for a long time.

"Brother Wu, it's you?"

Ji Rufeng glanced at the bald man as well, his brows furrowing, and asked, "Could it be that the Sect Master is still in seclusion...?"

According to the secret intelligence sent by his subordinates, today should be the day when Sha Wuqiu, the leader of the Tomb Raiders Sect, emerges from seclusion. However, there is no trace of him or his presence in the hall, which is undoubtedly suspicious.

As for the bald man opposite, he was Wu Dingguo, the last leader of the Mojinmen branch and the head of the Weapons Hall.

Compared to his mortal enemy Cui Gu, Ji Rufeng had little to no grudge against Wu Dingguo, so he was slightly more polite.

"Old Ji, Boss Sha left the pass five days ago, but he's not currently in Fancheng. It seems he's off on something big, which is why he specifically instructed me to keep it a secret..."

With his arms crossed, Wu Dingguo grinned again, seemingly having anticipated Ji Rufeng's reaction.

"What?"

"Sha Wuqiu left Fancheng five days ago...!"

As soon as the other person finished speaking, Ji Rufeng's heart sank, and a barely perceptible look of seriousness crossed his fair face.

After all, he boasted that his plans over the years were meticulous and flawless, and that he had even planted spies throughout the entire Tomb Raiders Sect. Logically speaking, even Sha Wuqiu's every move should be under his control.

However, Wu Dingguo's words shattered Ji Rufeng's arrogance. He may have underestimated the strength and methods of Sha Wuqiu, the leader of the Tomb Raiders Sect!

"Could it be that my plan has been exposed...?!"

"Impossible! If that were true, given Sha Wuqiu's character, he would never have kept me alive until now...!"

A bad thought suddenly arose in Ji Rufeng's mind, and his fists clenched tightly under his sleeves, but he still pretended to be calm, so that the two people next to him did not notice.

"Hmm, I see. Boss Sha's reputation is truly admirable..."

Ji Rufeng shook his head, a forced smile appearing on his lips.

"I didn't expect Boss Sha to emerge from seclusion ahead of schedule. It seems he must have gained a lot from this closed-door cultivation, and might even have broken through to the third level of the Qi Condensation Realm...!"

Compared to Ji Rufeng's chaotic state of mind, Cui Gu looked relaxed and laughed heartily.

After all, he was originally a favorite of Sha Wuqiu, and his status was even higher than that of Ji Rufeng and Wu Dingguo. Otherwise, the former would not have allowed him to control the Blood Oath Hall, the head of the three major halls of the Mojinmen.

"By the way, Boss Sha issued a wanted notice before, apparently for a traitor named Lu Feng. Has that villain been caught yet?"

As if remembering something, Wu Dingguo continued.

"Hmph! You'll probably have to ask our Hall Master Ji about that. If it weren't for his misdeeds, that little bastard named Lu Feng would probably have been captured alive by me long ago!"

Upon hearing this, Cui Gu merely gave a cold laugh, his fat bulging on his face, revealing a deep sense of mockery and disdain.

"Although we failed to retrieve the thief's body, he fell off a sheer cliff during our pursuit and is now certainly dead. Boss Sha's mission can be considered complete..."

Despite being greatly displeased by Cui Gu's sarcastic remarks, Ji Rufeng held back and said calmly.

"That kid fell off a cliff and died?"

Wu Dingguo was stunned for a moment.

"Hmm, but I've heard that this young man has a beautiful fiancée, I think her name is Ye Yun, and she currently lives in Black Rock Village..."

Before Ji Rufeng could finish speaking, Wu Dingguo interrupted him, his eyes flashing with lewdness and his tone becoming subtly excited.

"Don't bother with such a trivial matter. I'll head to Black Rock Village right now, capture that brat's fiancée, and give her a good 'interrogation' to see if she dares to oppose our Tomb Raiders Sect again...!"

After saying that, Wu Dingguo turned and hurriedly left the White Tiger Hall. He seemed to be driven by lust and couldn't wait to bring Ye Yun back. He had no time to pay attention to the two of them.

"Tch, looks like that little bastard's fiancée is in for a lot of trouble..."

"This is what happens when you offend the Tomb Raiders!"

Watching Wu Dingguo's hurried departure, Cui Gu's lips curled into a cold smile.

The other party was not only lecherous, but also had peculiar tastes, especially enjoying torturing young women. Over the years, every respectable woman who fell into Wu Dingguo's hands was raped to death, and their deaths were extremely gruesome!

...

Meanwhile, in a spacious room at the Green Wood branch of the Tomb Raiders Sect...

"Master Zhao, don't be so rough...! It's hurting me terribly...!"

"Oh dear...! Master Zhao, don't just dote on my sister, she wants to have some fun too..."

A series of soft, low moans came from inside the room, which made Lu Feng outside the door frown slightly. He then kicked the door open.

Bang!

The door shattered on the floor, and the next moment a furious roar and a woman's panicked cries suddenly came from inside.

"Damn it! Who is this bastard who dares to ruin my good time!"

A short, dark-skinned young man quickly rolled off the bed, then casually pulled out his personal dagger from beside the bedside. His face was now contorted with rage, his murderous intent palpable.

"W-what, it's you, kid...!"

However, upon seeing the newcomer's true appearance, the dark-skinned, thin young man's face froze, a look of utter disbelief appearing on his face. "Impossible!"

"You...you weren't dead already...!"

"Zhao Qingming, I didn't expect that after only a few months, you'd already become the leader of the Qingmu branch. Congratulations!"

Ignoring Zhao Qingming's shock and disbelief, Lu Feng merely raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a hint of mockery.

The other party was once a disciple of the Tomb Raiders Sect, just like him. However, Zhao Qingming often bullied Lu Feng without cause, relying on his cultivation level of the second stage of Body Refinement, and even robbed him of his property. He was no different from Liu Dahu and others back then.

Therefore, after escaping from the nameless valley, Lu Feng immediately sought out his opponent to avenge the past!
