A chase ensues in the North.
However, all of this had nothing to do with Shen Gongbao anymore, because from the moment the Snow Wolf Clan fled, everyone from the Four Seas Treasure Pavilion had already concluded that the Snow Wolf Clan had fled out of fear of punishment.
At this point, the Snow Wolf Clan couldn't possibly stop to explain to the people of the Four Seas Treasure Pavilion.
Therefore, the final answer may only be clear once all the Snow Wolf Clan members are captured.
But would those snow wolf tribesmen be foolish enough to just wait to be captured?
Even if they are caught, given their previous ambush of the Sihai Tongbao Pavilion caravan, would the people of Sihai Tongbao Pavilion believe them?
Shen Gongbao's lips curled up slightly.
Anyway, all of this has nothing to do with him anymore.
Just then, a wave of water descended from the sky, and the next moment, a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals appeared in front of Shen Gongbao.
Shen Gongbao looked at the shrimp soldiers and crab generals in front of him with some doubt.
"Could it be that these people discovered they took those dragon blood corals themselves?"
"But that shouldn't be the case. After killing Frost, I used the fragments of the Chaos Pearl to obscure all the secrets of that area. Even if a sage personally intervened, let alone a dragon cultivator, it would be impossible to uncover the true situation at that time."
Thinking of this, Shen Gongbao took the initiative to ask:
"I wonder what business this dragon general has with me?"
General Crab sized up Shen Gongbao, sensing the demonic aura emanating from him, and rolled his crab eyes:
"Are you a disciple of the Jie Sect, cultivator?"
Shen Gongbao didn't know why this crab general would ask such a question, but he still shook his head and said:
"No, I have no connection with Golden Turtle Island in the East China Sea."
Upon hearing this, General Crab instantly relaxed considerably:
"So you're also from Beiju Luzhou?"
Shen Gongbao shook his head again:
"No, I am just a rogue cultivator and have no connection with the demon race of Beiju Luzhou."
Upon hearing this answer, General Xie's expression immediately turned serious:
"In that case, come with me!"
Shen Gongbao raised an eyebrow:
What do you mean by that?
A hint of impatience flashed across General Crab's face:
"What else could this mean? Don't you know that the Snow Wolf Clan killed people from our Four Seas Treasure Pavilion?"
"I just checked, and you actually have the cultivation of a Golden Immortal. Since you have this strength, shouldn't you contribute to our Four Seas Treasure Pavilion?"
Shen Gongbao frowned slightly:
"The Snow Wolf Clan killed people from your Four Seas Treasure Pavilion. That's a matter between your Four Seas Treasure Pavilion and the Snow Wolf Clan. You expect me to take action? That's asking the impossible."
"Making things difficult for someone?"
General Crab suddenly looked up, his gaze turning menacing as he looked at Shen Gongbao:
"You dare say I'm making things difficult for you? The vast majority of the resources that enabled you rogue cultivators to advance to the Golden Immortal realm were obtained through our Four Seas Treasure Pavilion, right? And most of the spiritual treasures you possess were also purchased from our Four Seas Treasure Pavilion, weren't they?"
"When you needed our Sihai Tongbao Pavilion, you were full of gratitude. Now that we need your help, you're telling me I'm making unreasonable demands?"
General Crab spoke with righteous indignation, but in reality, from his earlier question to Shen Gongbao about whether he came from the Jie Sect and Beiju Luzhou, Shen Gongbao already understood that he was completely selective in his approach, specifically targeting rogue cultivators to conscript men.
If Shen Gongbao were an ordinary rogue cultivator, he might have been fooled by him at this point.
But in reality, what about independent cultivators?
So what if their supplies and magical artifacts were purchased from the Four Seas Treasure Pavilion?
They weren't hired by the Four Seas Treasure Pavilion's Hua Lingshi.
Those items were purchased with spirit stones, not given away for free by the Four Seas Treasure Pavilion. Why shouldn't they refuse?
Despite having the title of a disciple of the Chan Sect and a direct disciple of a sage, Shen Gongbao was unwilling to be used by others for no reason.
Not to mention that these lowly soldiers and generals are now trying to get him to work for free under the guise of some grand cause.
Shen Gongbao could only say, you're dreaming!
As Shen Gongbao's expression changed, General Crab became enraged:
"how?"
"You really don't want to help?"
"Could it be that you are an accomplice of the Snow Wolf clan?"
"If not, I really can't think of any reason why you wouldn't help!"
General Crab raised his curved blade, the Water-Splitting Blade, and the surrounding shrimp soldiers rushed up from both sides of Shen Gongbao.
Looking at the armed and armored soldiers surrounding him, Shen Gongbao remained calm, letting them surround him, and said in a flat tone:
"Now that you know I am a Golden Immortal, you should know that you shrimp soldiers and crab generals are no match for me at all."
General Crab sneered:
"Don't use the combat strength of you rogue cultivators to assess the strength of our Four Seas Dragon Palace. A mere Golden Immortal is not uncommon for me!"
"Kid, I'm giving you one last chance. Are you going to cooperate with us unconditionally or not?"
Shen Gongbao sighed softly.
It seems there's no way to negotiate.
He didn't take these shrimp soldiers and crab generals in front of him seriously at all.
Shen Gongbao was afraid that if he killed these shrimp soldiers and crab generals himself, it would attract the pursuit of the entire Dragon Palace of the Four Seas, which would be a real problem.
But Shen Gongbao couldn't possibly keep compromising himself for a crisis that might not even happen.
"I'll try to be as decisive as possible in the future, so as not to leave any traces that the Four Seas Dragon Clan can find!"
"Huh?"
Just as Shen Gongbao was about to make his move, he suddenly sensed a powerful figure approaching from not far away. The Thunder Whip that had appeared in his hand immediately stopped, and he said with a helpless expression:
“General Crab, I am merely a rogue cultivator, so I do not wish to get involved in the feud between your Four Seas Dragon Palace and the Snow Wolf Clan. However, I can assure you that I have absolutely no connection with the Snow Wolf Clan. You can rest assured about that.”
General Crab sneered:
"You think you have no connection with the Snow Wolf Clan? I'm telling you right now, you either agree to join us in capturing the Snow Wolf Clan, or we'll take you down as an accomplice. It's your choice—life or death."
Upon hearing this, Shen Gongbao felt extremely aggrieved:
"As a member of the Four Seas Treasure Pavilion, is this how you force rogue cultivators?"
"How are you any different from the snow wolf clan in your actions?"
"Aren't you really afraid of breaking the rules of the Four Seas Treasure Pavilion with what you've done today?"
General Crab sneered:
"You don't need to waste your breath on me. No matter how eloquent you are, you must choose between my Four Seas Treasure Pavilion and the Snow Wolf Clan. Since you haven't made up your mind, I'll make the decision for you!"
As he spoke, General Crab pressed his curved-blade water-splitting blade forward, his voice cold and sharp:
"Let's do it!"
