Just as Qin Xin left, Gu Beichen arrived at the scene with several disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect.

Looking at the collapsed area in the crater, Gu Beichen was also somewhat puzzled.

After entering the collapsed area, Gu Beichen and several disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect emerged shortly afterward, covered in dust and looking rather grim.

"It seems that the thing Qin Haotian mentioned has been taken away!"

There was also some anger in Gu Beichen's eyes.

He and Qin Haotian came to this iron ore mine together and unexpectedly discovered the Heavenly Spirit Crystal, which was a huge gain for them.

Given the Qin clan's powerful influence in Zhongzhou, Gu Beichen's family dared not provoke them easily. Moreover, Qin Haotian was likely to become the next head of the Qin clan and had been favored by the dean of the Xuantian Sword Sect, which meant that his future was limitless. Therefore, in order to curry favor with Qin Haotian, Gu Beichen was willing to become his right-hand man and tried his best to comply with Qin Haotian's orders in order to please him.

Therefore, most of the Heavenly Spirit Crystals obtained by the disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect in this iron mine, apart from a portion being handed over to the sect, mostly ended up in Qin Haotian's pocket.

Previously, after Qin Haotian entered this magma passage, Gu Beichen followed his orders and directly blocked the passage, which was why he was able to confront the people of Tianxuan Sect. As for the good things here, they were taken away by Qin Haotian.

However, as Qin Haotian left the lava passage, Gu Beichen noticed some blood at the corner of his mouth, suggesting he had suffered a serious injury and needed to recuperate as soon as possible.

Qin Haotian also gave Gu Beichen an order: there was a huge Heavenly Spirit Crystal in the crater. Because he had suffered some internal injuries and the Heavenly Spirit Crystal was so large that he could not put it into his spatial ring for the time being, he directly told Gu Beichen the location of the item and asked him to take the disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect to bring it out.

With the large number of disciples in the Xuantian Sword Sect, even if the Tianxuan Sect and other sects wanted to join forces, they would not be able to stop them for a while.

Therefore, the moment Gu Beichen ended the standoff with Tianxuan Sect, he led all the disciples of Xuantian Sword Sect into the passage and found the location directly based on the information left by Qin Haotian.

But now this place is completely empty.

If they were to return empty-handed, Gu Beichen knew the stakes involved. If Qin Haotian set his sights on something and failed to obtain it for him, the consequences would be extremely severe.

"That's it! That kid, it must be that kid!"

Gu Beichen suddenly remembered that disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect had rushed into this passage earlier.

The memory of a martial artist at the Core Formation Realm is also extremely powerful. Gu Beichen then glanced around at the Xuan Tian Sword Sect disciples and found that the person from before was not there. He immediately realized who it was.

"Looks like we've been scammed!"

After realizing what was happening, Gu Beichen immediately ordered all the disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect to turn back. "I still remember that person's aura. Immediately seal off this passage. Once that person's aura appears, intercept them immediately!"

"If he dares to run, kill him!"

Upon hearing the order, the other disciples immediately flew towards the outside of the lava passage and reported the news directly to the sect. For a time, all the disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect headed towards the lava passage.

After discovering the actions of the Xuantian Sword Sect, the other four sects also believed that the Xuantian Sword Sect had found something valuable here. In a short time, many disciples from the other four sects gathered around the outer perimeter of the passage.

The disciples who had entered with the Xuantian Sword Sect and the Tianxuan Sect did not find anything good after the search. When they were about to leave, they were all questioned by the disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect.

Some minor conflicts broke out here, but seeing the fierce and menacing appearance of the Xuantian Sword Sect members, some disciples from other sects could only back down and let them inspect the area directly. After all, there were so many disciples from other sects outside, and even if the Xuantian Sword Sect was domineering, they dared not do anything too outrageous.

Standing at the entrance of the passage, Gu Beichen's face darkened, because the Xuan Tian Sword Sect disciple who had left earlier had returned, but not from inside the passage.

Gu Beichen also confirmed that someone had impersonated a Xuan Tian disciple and infiltrated the passage, so he was extremely angry.

However, some were happy while others were sad. The happiest of all was the Tianxuan Sect. They were overjoyed to learn that something from the Xuantian Sword Sect had been snatched away.

Previously, this group of Xuantian Sword Sect disciples, relying on their numbers, directly blocked the passage. Even so, the contents were still intercepted. No matter where this story is told, it clearly conveys one meaning: the Xuantian Sword Sect is incompetent.

As for Fen Laoliu, when he led several disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect out through this passage, he was also blocked by Gu Beichen and others.

Fen Lao Liu had initially thought there was something good behind the passage, but after searching inside, he found nothing. He was already somewhat angry, and when the Xuan Tian Sword Sect disciple blocked him, his anger flared up even more.

They immediately attacked Gu Beichen, and if it weren't for the arrival of more disciples from the Xuantian Sword Sect, Fen Laoliu probably wouldn't have stopped.

Gu Beichen, along with Fen Laoliu and the other Tianxuan Sect disciples who entered the sect, was aware of this. If things really escalated, he might face some punishment upon returning to the Xuantian Sword Sect.

Although there was discord between the disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect and the Tianxuan Sect, the fact that the Xuantian Sword Sect openly surrounded the disciples of the Tianxuan Sect in public, relying on their superior numbers, would likely cause the sects to back down. If this were to provoke a sect war, Gu Beichen could not bear the responsibility, so he could only step back and let the disciples of the Tianxuan Sect leave.

Of course, after Fen Laoliu and the others left, Gu Beichen remained at the entrance of the passage. By observing the number of people entering the passage, he knew that the person had not yet come out.

Qin Xin, the person involved, immediately found a secluded place to hide after discovering the presence of a martial artist.

He was completely unaware of what was happening outside at that time.

With a thought, Qin Xin directly entered the mysterious fragmented map space. After glancing at Danqing, who was still sleeping under the big tree, he sat cross-legged in front of the Heavenly Spirit Crystal and slowly mobilized his martial spirit to cultivate.
