Upon seeing this, Daoist Qianhe and Daoist Simu exchanged glances, then stroked their beards and laughed a few times.

I initially thought Chen Xiu was up to no good.

Seeing how he treated Zi Qingyue, Daoist Qianhe and Daoist Simu both breathed a sigh of relief. Then they said to Chen Xiu, "Now we understand that you are sincerely good to Qingyue. We had some prejudice against you before, so we hope you won't take it to heart!"

"In the future, I hope you can continue to assist Qingyue. The future of the Celestial Master's Mansion rests on you young people!"

"Your contribution to discovering the Celestial Master's Mansion's treasure vault this time is truly remarkable!"

"Please accept our bow, two old Taoist priests!"

After speaking, both Daoist Qianhe and Daoist Simu bowed to Chen Xiuxing.

"No, no, no!"

Chen Xiu hurriedly helped the two Taoist priests up and then said, "How dare I take credit? Actually, the location of this treasure pavilion was discovered by my master Zhang Jiuying by chance, who guessed it... It's just that I'm a bit bold, so I dared to try it out!"

"It is even more commendable that a young person does not seek personal credit!"

Both Daoist Qianhe and Daoist Simu looked at Chen Xiu with approval, growing increasingly fond of this young man.

"hehe……"

Seeing that the two old Taoist priests were staring at him, Chen Xiu felt embarrassed to take anything more secretly. He grinned and said, "Let's go up first. Our fellow disciples upstairs must be getting impatient. As for these magical treasures, we can study them later!"

"Alright."

Master Qianhe nodded.

"etc……"

Master Four Eyes suddenly said, "Don't let too many people know about the Treasure Pavilion for now. Once this gets out, it will surely bring countless disasters! We only need to show the Celestial Master's Seal! Qingyue, put the Male and Female Demon-Slaying Swords, the Five Thunder Flags, and some spell manuals into your ring! Take a few that will be useful for your cultivation first, and we can deal with the other magic treasures later!"

"That's right, better safe than sorry!"

Master Qianhe nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Uncle-Master!"

On Zi Qingyue's left thumb, she wore a jade-green thumb ring, a treasure of the Celestial Master's Mansion, which also had storage space.

Following the instructions of her two senior uncles, Zi Qingyue put these items away.

"A storage ring?"

Chen Xiu deliberately spoke up.

Upon hearing this, both Daoist Qianhe and Daoist Simu looked towards Chen Xiu's hands.

His fingers were bare; there was no ring at all.

In other words, Chen Xiu has no spatial magic treasures, so it's impossible for him to steal anything from here.

"let's go."

Seeing that Zi Qingyue had already put away the items, Daoist Qianhe and the others went out and then personally pulled the ring to close the stone door again.

The group quickly returned to the ground.

"Sect Leader!"

"Senior Brother Qianhe, Senior Brother Simu, what's the situation inside?"

"Grandmaster Qianhe! Grandmaster Simu!"

Because of their different seniority, the Taoist priests addressed Master Qianhe and Master Simu differently.

Upon seeing that everyone had returned, they quickly asked how things were going inside.

"Thanks to Chen Xiu!"

Both Master Qianhe and Master Simu expressed their approval.

"Huh? What exactly happened? Grandmaster Uncles, please tell me in detail!"

"Sect Leader, have you really found the Celestial Master's Seal?"

The Taoist priests were all very curious.

"yes."

Zi Qingyue took out the Celestial Master's Seal and the Male and Female Demon-Slaying Swords, and said, "Thanks to Ashu, our Celestial Master's Mansion has finally found our ancestor's magic treasures!"

"They really found it?"

"This really is the Celestial Master's Seal!"

"The Male and Female Demon-Slaying Swords are real too!"

The Taoist priests exclaimed in surprise. When they looked at Chen Xiu again, there was no longer any hostility in their eyes. Instead, they looked at him with admiration!

Then, as the sect leader, Zi Qingyue left only a few elder-level Taoist priests behind and dismissed everyone else.

Chen Xiu knew they had something to say, so he withdrew.

"Ashu, you don't need to."

Zi Qingyue spoke.

After all, it was Chen Xiu who led everyone to discover the treasure pavilion, which contained countless magical treasures, and Chen Xiu also knew this.

"I'd better step aside. Senior Sister, come find me when you're done with your work!"

Knowing that he had gained the trust of his senior sister and even the entire Celestial Master's Mansion, Chen Xiu left first.

Back at my lodgings.

Chen Xiu closed the door and then began to examine the magical artifacts he had secretly taken.

"This is the Soul-Capturing Bell... This thing is a mental attack, it's useless against me!"

"This is the Ghost-Controlling Bone Flute... This is a bone flute carved from the bones of the Demon Lord. It is a priceless treasure for ghost cultivators and evil cultivators!"

"This is a spirit-binding jade... Having this on me makes cultivation twice as effective. This thing is useful to me!"

"This is millennium-old cold iron... This stuff is incredibly hard, it's a pity there are only a few hundred pounds of it, but it's enough to forge a sword!"

"These are Dragon Balls! Holy crap, the Celestial Master's Mansion actually has Dragon Balls!!"

Chen Xiu was shocked; he had unintentionally stolen a dragon ball.

Dragons are legendary creatures; there's absolutely no chance of seeing one in the human world.

Even in the Immortal Realm, to slay a dragon, one needs at least a thousand years of cultivation, and at the very least, the strength of a Golden Immortal!

But the Celestial Master's Mansion actually possesses a dragon pearl!

In his previous life, Chen Xiu only heard his senior sister mention that there were all sorts of magical treasures in the treasure pavilion, but she never mentioned the Dragon Ball.

It seems that neither the senior sister nor the old Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain, with their mortal eyes, recognized that this was the Dragon Pearl!

"Luckily I found it, otherwise it would have been a waste to let such a gem go to waste..."
