The other party has already revealed his title as the Third Prince and even took out his badge, so he still has to show the most basic courtesy.
Cheng Yun opened the barrier and let a group of people in.
"I'm Cheng Yun from the Nineteenth Princess's Mansion, and this is Piao Miao."
Cheng Yun clasped his fists and asked the leader, "What's your name, sir?"
"My name is Hu Xia!"
The young man with a goatee pointed at the gnawed sapling and said, "Those are the signs of the monster we're tracking, gnawing on it."
"This is very important to us."
"Can we take a closer look?"
Cheng Yun nodded: "Of course."
"Thank you very much."
As Hu Xia spoke, he waved his hand, and a large dog covered in golden hair appeared behind him.
The dog came up, sniffed, and then started barking loudly at Cheng Yun.
A group of people carefully checked the damaged area.
Hu Xia also noticed Gou Zi's reaction. The group of people were communicating with each other through eye contact, but they didn't speak when they saw Cheng Yun nearby.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yun spoke first, "Hu Xia, are you sure this is what the monster you're tracking is eating?"
Hu Xia nodded: "Yes, it can be confirmed that it is that beast."
"He must have sneaked over here while we were searching the mountain."
"I wonder if you've ever met Cheng Yun?"
Cheng Yun nodded and said, "Yes, I have seen it. Is this monster yours?"
Hu Xia was overjoyed: "Of course it's ours."
"Otherwise, how could we have used so many people and searched here for a full half month?"
Cheng Yun nodded: "That's good."
Hu Xia quickly clasped his fists and asked, "But you, Cheng Yun, caught it. Please return it to us. Don't worry, we will definitely give you a generous gift."
Cheng Yun immediately said, "I did see the monster and tried to catch it, but unfortunately I underestimated its ability."
"It slipped away."
Hu Xia and others immediately sighed and said, "That's such a pity."
In fact, they also felt that it was unlikely to fall into Cheng Yun's hands.
After all, they had been catching it for half a month, and they knew best what the treasure-hunting rat was capable of.
At this moment, Hu Xia spoke again: "Since that little beast likes to eat this sapling, why not do this? We can use it to fish out the little beast."
Cheng Yun smiled and said, "Since I planted it, I will sell it."
“It doesn’t matter who you sell it to.”
"Please first pay the bill for the ten Heavenly Demon Subduing Trees that were destroyed by your demonic beasts."
"How much?"
"Not expensive, a total of 10 million immortal spirit stones?"
Hu Xia, who was about to pay, was stunned when he heard this. He then looked at Cheng Yun and said with narrowed eyes, "We are doing serious business, little brother, don't mess with us!"
The subtext is, are you blackmailing us?
Cheng Yun smiled and said, "In that case, why don't you send someone to Sihai Tower to find out what the price of the Heavenly Subduing Demon Tree is?"
"This is a spiritual seed we bought from the demon world at great expense. It's millions of miles around the entire Immortal King City. You can't even find it if you try."
"It can be planted on my sacred mountain, that's because I planted it in a good way."
"Okay, if you have nothing else, please leave first."
"I'll wait for you here."
Piaomiao had already secretly informed Princess Nineteen.
Hu Xia and his companions originally wanted to rely on their numbers to bully others, forcibly occupy the sacred mountain, and temporarily detain Cheng Yun.
Once the treasure-hunting rat is caught, the problem will be passed on to the third prince.
By then, even the Nineteenth Princess would not dare to cause trouble for the Third Prince easily.
After all, she is the only one among all the princesses and princes who has become an immortal.
She is also the one most beloved by the Immortal King Canglan and the most doted on by the First and Second Ladies.
Unexpectedly, Tan Tai Feng Ling arrived so quickly.
"Who are you all?"
"Why did you come to Cheng Yun's Lingshan?"
Tan Tai Feng Ling descended from the sky, his phoenix eyes turned upside down, and he shouted loudly.
When Hu Xia saw this, he immediately gave up the idea of taking action.
Dealing with Cheng Yun is one thing, dealing with Princess Nineteen is another.
Hu Xia bowed and clasped his fists, saying, "Greetings, Princess Nineteen. We are only here to look for the lost demon beast. We will be leaving now."
Although a group of people left Lingshan, they did not leave the mountain and stationed in the surrounding areas separately, while sending people to Sihai Tower.
Cheng Yun took out the array plate and snapped his fingers. Suddenly the color of the barrier changed, and the situation inside could not be seen from the outside.
Seeing this, Hu Xia immediately said to the people around him: "If we are not allowed to see it, it will make it even more suspicious. The treasure-hunting rat is probably in that kid's hands."
Someone shouted, "With the Nineteenth Princess here, it's not easy for us to take action directly. Why don't we let the Third Prince do it?"
Hu Xia shook his head: "Unless it's absolutely certain, if the Third Prince really comes and the Treasure Hunting Rat is not here, should we still stay in the Prince's Mansion?!"
When Cheng Yun heard that it was about the third prince, the murderous intent that had just been hidden among these people could no longer be concealed.
He knew that this treasure-hunting rat could not be saved for the time being.
Because the other party has already locked the suspicion on him.
As for the Third Prince's Mansion, not to mention him, even Tan Tai Feng Ling might not be able to afford to offend it.
Tan Tai Feng Ling asked, "What are those people doing?"
Cheng Yun said, "Looking for the treasure rat."
"This is a species that was almost extinct in ancient times. It can help people find treasures."
Tan Tai Feng Ling's eyes suddenly lit up: "That sounds interesting."
Cheng Yun nodded: "It's a pity, the Third Prince has set his eyes on this thing and wants to give it to the First Madam as a birthday gift."
"That group of people just now have been searching here for half a month."
