Divine God Against The Heavens

"Umm, Manager Ma, can you tell me who brought me here while I was unconscious?"

After hearing his question, Manager Ma and the Grandmaster Alchemist, both looked at him strangely.

"Eh! It was the First Elder of the Wang Family and the younger brother of the Wang Family's current patriarch, the Second Elder of the Ma Family and Ma Bao who is also a known genius of our Southwood City, and the second sister and third brother of the patriarch of the Zhang Family who brought you here while you were still unconscious." Manager Ma gave him a brief note and then he spoke something to the Grandmaster Alchemist in a low voice and left.

When he arrived here, he immediately felt that the spirit energy here was much denser than what it was previously. He looked at the Spirit Gathering Array and found that there were some spirit stones embedded in this formation. He also noticed that the Spirit Gathering Array looked somewhat different from before.

He guessed that maybe Ye Xiao was the one who did something with the Spirit Gathering Array, causing it to gather many times more spirit energy from before.

He himself was shocked with his own guess but after seeing the spirit stones embedded in the array, he was sure that it was Ye Xiao who did this.

After all, the attendant told him previously that Ye Xiao has lots of spirit stones. And anyway, spirit stones are so rare, who would like to waste them.

He guessed that maybe, Ye Xiao really has many spirit stones so he did not take it to heart, using some spirit stones to perfect the Spirit Gathering Array.

So it is them who brought me here!

In Ye Xiao's mind, six Martial Emperor Realm martial artist figures appeared. He shook his head then looked at the Grandmaster Alchemist.

Both of them sat down on the bed and started talking with each other.

After the time it takes an incense stick to burn, Ye Xiao heard many footsteps which was coming toward the room he was in. He immediately understood that the experts from the three big families are here.

He did not have to wait long. The experts from the Zhang Family, the Wang Family, and the Ma Family soon entered the room.

"Hahaha, so this little brother has finally woken up!" The First Elder of the Wang Family laughed loudly and said, "May I know who this little brother is?"

Ye Xiao looked at the First Elder of the Wang Family then he looked at other experts behind him. Except for the six Martial Emperor Realm martial artists from the three big families whom Ye Xiao knows, there were other three Martial Emperor Realm martial artists present here at this moment.

He took a long breath, calmed his mind and heart, and then said, "Ye Xiao!"

He only said his name and did not plan to say anything further.

Hearing him, all of the people in this room looked at each other for a moment. Ye Xiao understood that they were talking something with each other via sound transmission.

"Little brother, it is important for us to know exactly how you were able to find that place of the birth of the treasure? That treasure went missing and we suspect that someone has stolen it. If Little brother is the one who took it then I hope little brother can return the treasure to us!"

A few moments later, the First Elder of the Wang Family began his investigation. Ye Xiao was already ready for their questions so the moment he heard the First Elder of the Wang Family, Ye Xiao replied to him casually as he wanted to show them that the Golden Brick was not related to him in the slightest.

"Oh, that! When I arrived here in the Southwood City, I heard many people talking about the birth of a treasure so I thought to take a look. So I went to the Cloudsmoke Forest. I was first disappointed as I did not find anything but just as I was about to come back, I saw two people talking with each other about the treasure and followed them. Soon, I saw them arriving in front of a mountain beside a river in the Cloudsmoke Forest and saw them pushing a big round rock. After the big round rock was pushed, a dark tunnel appeared in that place. Those two people entered there."

"Since I already saw this, it was naturally not a problem for me to enter there. I also entered and followed the path of the dark tunnel. Soon I saw light and when I walked out of the dark tunnel, I saw many experts fighting with each other. As you all can see, my cultivation is weak so I did not want to meddle in other people's stuff. Hence, I turned back, and just as I was about to leave, a burly man stopped me. Eh! Yes, that burly man said that he was from the Zhang Family."

"Not long after that, this guy also appeared and started attacking me. Because of his attacks, I lost my consciousness."

Ye Xiao pointed at Ma Bao and explained everything which was entirely true.

"Bullshit! It was clearly you who was using some sort of secret technique because of which even I was sent flying and fainted on the spot." Ma Bao immediately retorted Ye Xiao.

Humph!

Ye Xiao only snorted and did not look at Ma Bao. He continues to say, "As for the treasure that you are talking about, I did not even saw what that treasure is let alone stealing the treasure!"

All the experts present here started to look at each other once again. They did not found any fault in what Ye Xiao said. As for the matter of losing his consciousness, these experts thought that Ye Xiao used a secret technique at that time to counterattack Ma Bao. He does not want to expose the matter of the Secret Technique so he simply blamed Ma Bao.

They already checked Ye Xiao's body and even his spatial ring. They didn't find anything and knew that it is almost impossible for Ye Xiao to steal the Golden Brick and it is even under the nose of six Martial Emperor Realm martial artists.

And Ye Xiao also answered their questions instantly and very casually causing them not to suspect him.

They were here for two reasons. One was to ask Ye Xiao about the matter related to the Golden Brick and another was to form some sort of relationship with Ye Xiao as they thought that Ye Xiao was a descendent of some big family from a First Grade Country or the Imperial City of the Grand Xia Empire.

"Oh! Little brother, don't mind us after all the matter related to the treasure is very important!" The First Elder of the Wang Family laughed and tried to erase any misconception that might appear in Ye Xiao's mind after being treated as a suspect of theft.

"I don't mind. I also understand how important a matter that is related to a natural-born treasure is." Ye Xiao nodded his head and then stood up and said, "I think I've been unconscious for a very long time so I plan to walk outside for a while. Please excuse me!"

After saying this, he left the room and walked out of the Phoenix Restaurant.

No one tried to stop him as they thought it was natural. And anyway, there was already someone from the three big families following Ye Xiao in secret.

Ye Xiao did not know that someone was following him but he knew that the three big families will not leave him alone so he casually started to walk. Soon, he arrived in a crowded area. He took four or five turns on the street here and left this place. Not long after he left, three men appeared.

"Where is he?"

"This place is so crowded, I lost him!"

"Don't worry, We will find him soon, let's search in a different direction."

These three men talked and then disappeared from where they were standing.

.....

Ye Xiao walked out of the Southwood City and ran toward the Cloudsmoke Forest once again.

He was still not sure if someone was following him or not. He did not want to stay in the Southwood City any longer so he hurriedly exited the city.

"It is already almost two months since I left the Azure Dragon Country and yet my strength did not increase much instead it even fell down. I need to increase my strength as soon as possible."

Ye Xiao now only has one thing in his mind. He wanted to increase his strength as soon as possible. There were many things he planned to do after increasing his strength and the first thing he has to do was to devour the corpses of the four Fifth Garde Magical Beasts.
