Chapter 2208 - Seen Through
Chu Bi said softly, “Vice Palace Master, Deacon Xiao acquired that good fortune. You...”
Huang Changting glared coldly at her. “No need for your input! I just want to have a look at it. It’s nothing as debased as you presume!”
He paused, then looked at Su Yi and laughed. “Besides, I’m sure you’ll entrust a treasure of this level to the sect sooner or later, so what’s the harm in letting me have a look?”
The group was stunned, but then, they quickly understood. The vice palace master is using ‘giving the treasure to the sect’ as a ruse to take Xiao Jian down a peg!
But then, Su Yi fiddled with the bronze lamp and smiled faintly. “And what if I don’t give it to the sect?”
Huang Changting’s brow furrowed. “Deacon Xiao, don’t let greed blind you. A Lesser God is in no way qualified to own an Undying treasure like that. The lamp can only display its true power if you entrust it to the sect.”
He took a step forward, his imposing aura bearing down on Su Yi. At the same time, he opened his right hand. “Go on. Let me have a look at it.”
His gaze was icy and calm. It seemed that if Su Yi dared refuse, he’d attack without hesitation!
“Xiao Jian! Hurry up and give it to him!” Qian Hu urged from the sidelines. “If the vice palace master hadn’t led us here, how could you have possibly gotten your hands on such a treasure?”
Su Yi sighed. “I’ve put up with you two this entire time. Why keep pushing?”
Huang Changting had obviously run out of patience. He suddenly reached for the lamp. “Just give it to me!”
A golden fire flower suddenly drifted out of the lamp and landed on Huang Changting’s hand.
