Upon hearing this voice, both Qing Ling and Lin Chen's expressions changed dramatically, and they imdiately turned to look.
They saw that outside the stone chamber, quite a few people were already standing there, among them an elderly man of the fourth stage of the Divine realm, just a glance made Lin Chen and Qing Ling both feel a bit uneasy.
Leading them was a young man, but the aura of this young man had also reached the first stage of the Divine realm.
This person, whether it was Lin Chen or Qing Ling, was not unfamiliar, it was the young leader of the Blood Refining rcenary group, Fan Li!
Fan Li stared intensely at the treasure chest in Lin Chen's hand and harshly said again:
"Kid, if you know what's good for you, hand over the chest obediently!"
At this mont, Lin Chen couldn't help but frown and then looked towards Qing Ling, his gaze not very friendly.
Qing Ling was initially taken aback but quickly understood what Lin Chen ant and imdiately said:
"Lin Chen, don't misunderstand, I truly did not inform them! I swear, only you and I know about this cave!"
It's no wonder Lin Chen suspected Qing Ling, after all, the secret about the Divine King's cave was all told to him by Qing Ling, and now, suddenly the people from the Blood Refining rcenary group appeared, Lin Chen had to think more.
Moreover, considering that Qing Ling's Black Mountain rcenary group and the Blood Refining rcenary group are equivalent forces, both are dominant rcenary groups in Nanping County City. If she had to choose, she might not have refused to choose Fan Li as an ally.
However, seeing Qing Ling's anxious expression, her delicate features looked sowhat aggrieved, Lin Chen chose to believe her, then nodded and said:
"Alright, I know, I believe you, but let's deal with the problem at hand first, this situation is quite tricky!"
Indeed, without knowing Lin Chen's combat power, Qing Ling truly didn't need to go through so much trouble, creating a trap for Lin Chen, a rcenary of the eighth stage Divine rank, it didn't make sense.
Moreover, knowing Lin Chen's strength, Qing Ling had even less reason to call in the Blood Refining rcenary group to corner Lin Chen. Because cooperating with Lin Chen, they divide the spoils equally, more favorable to Qing Ling, but with the Blood Refining rcenary group, it was uncertain!
And the Blood Refining rcenary group and the Black Mountain rcenary group are rivals, sharing treasures with their own enemy? Qing Ling is not foolish enough to do that.
However, Qing Ling looked at Lin Chen, seemingly wanting to explain further, but at this mont only heard a sharp sound of sothing breaking through the air, then a dark shadow like lightning attacked the two, both Lin Chen and Qing Ling instinctively dodged.
Then they saw that the dark shadow was actually a dagger, after the two dodged, it went straight to the treasure chest. However, the chest's material was extraordinary, not even sparks flew when the dagger bounced off, but coincidentally, it struck the keyhole, knocking the key out, which then fell to the ground nearby!
Lin Chen wanted to pick up the key, but the distance was not close, and he sensed the opposite party had already locked their aura on him, any movent would trigger an imdiate attack!
At this point, Lin Chen carefully observed and found there were five people, besides Fan Li at the first stage of the Divine realm, there were two at the second stage, one at the third stage, and that elder at the fourth stage!
Seeing such a lineup, Lin Chen couldn't help but frown, under these conditions, even using his soul skills, it might not be possible to escape, as there were five Divine Realm strongn.
Moreover, there was also Qing Ling present, although they were collaborators, the soul skill involved Lin Chen's great secret, he was not willing to use it in front of others.
At that mont, Qing Ling also knit her brows tightly and said to Fan Li:
"Young Master Fan, what do you an by this?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Li's gaze shifted from the treasure chest, looked at Qing Ling, with a trace of infatuation in his eyes, then said:
"Miss Qing, I an nothing else, I was just bored in the middle of the night, wanted to wander around, happened to run into you, so I followed along to see why Miss Qing wasn't resting at night. Haha, didn't expect, there is such a good place here, the Divine King's cave!"
Hearing Fan Li inadvertently reveal her secret, Qing Ling, who harbored a glimr of hope, completely gave up and coldly said:
"Young Master Fan, I discovered this cave, what I do here seems to have nothing to do with you, right?"
Hearing Qing Ling's unfriendly tone, a trace of malice flashed in Fan Li's eyes, but he hid it well, still laughingly said:
"Haha! What are you saying, Miss Qing, our Blood Refining rcenary group and your Black Mountain rcenary group have a very good relationship! So naturally, we should share the fortunes and adversities! How about this, Miss Qing, the treasures in this Divine King's cave, how about we each take half?"
Upon hearing this, Qing Ling did not speak yet, the elder standing behind Fan Li frowned and softly said:
"Young Master!"
But before he could finish, Fan Li waved his hand, signaling the elder not to speak further, and that he knew what he was doing.
Seeing this, the elder sighed softly and said no more.
Then, Qing Ling gave Fan Li a cold look, glanced unintentionally at Lin Chen, found that Lin Chen's face was expressionless, making it impossible to see what he was thinking, a thread of disappointnt flashed in her heart, then she said icily:
"Fan Li, you can forget it!"
Upon hearing these words, Fan Li's expression also turned sowhat unpleasant.
Actually, he had always been an admirer of Qing Ling, but Qing Ling never paid him any attention, which troubled him a lot, although he wasn't lacking won around him, it seed the more he couldn't get soone, the more he wanted them. So earlier, he proposed to split the treasures with Qing Ling to gain her favor, but now it seed Qing Ling wasn't interested.
At this mont, Fan Li's gaze inadvertently fell on Lin Chen, seeing Lin Chen's calm deanor, he couldn't help but vent his anger on Lin Chen, directly saying:
"Hey! You, kid, which rcenary group are you from? Why are you here too?"
But upon hearing this, Lin Chen rely gave Fan Li a glance and chose to ignore him.
