The Almighty Ring - Chapter 3018:
“Hehe, you guys are really good at hiding. However, I have plenty of ways to get you to hand it over yourself!”Just as the elders were having a secret discussion, they did not expect Jiang Fei to be listening to them.
Although Jiang Fei’s spiritual power had been suppressed in the black hole, his own strength was still there. With his strength that surpassed the Dragon Emperor’s.., it was impossible for Jiang Fei to be discovered in front of these celestial elders who had less than 40 million combat power.
After confirming that the key to the treasure vault was not with one of the elders, Jiang Fei left quietly and returned to the palace.
“Where’s Su Rui?”Jiang Fei called a guard from the palace.
“His Highness is discussing something with his majesty.”At this time, the guards in the palace had already known Jiang Fei. They knew that His Majesty the Celestial King trusted him very much, so none of them dared to be the slightest bit negligent.
“Go and call him over for me,”Jiang Fei said to the guard.
“Yes! Sir, I will inform His Highness right away!”Although Jiang Fei said to call him over, the guard did not dare to be so rude.
“Okay!”Jiang Fei nodded. He did not mind how the guard phrased it. As long as he called Su Rui over, it would be fine.
About ten minutes later, Su Rui ran all the way to Jiang Fei with the guard.
“How’s it going?”Su Rui knew that Jiang Fei had gone to find out what was going on, so he asked immediately.
“There’s a little bit of trouble. What you’re going to do next…”Jiang Fei whispered into Su Rui’s ear.
“Is that okay?”Su Rui was confused.
“Just do as I say!”Jiang Fei smiled.
“Okay! If you think it’s reliable, I’ll do it!”Su Rui nodded and left the side hall where Jiang Fei lived.
After Su Rui came out, he was ready to return to his official residence in the capital. However, before he could leave the palace, he was stopped by Su Zhe. Previously, Su Zhe was chatting with Su Rui. Therefore, Su Rui was called away by Jiang Fei, he knew about it.
However, because Jiang Fei did not call him, Su Zhe did not follow him. Now that he saw that Su Rui was about to leave, he rushed out.
“Su Rui, come here.”Su Zhe gestured at Su Rui.
“What is it, brother?”Su Rui walked up to Su Zhe in a few steps.
“What did Jiang Fei say to you?”Su Zhe asked.
“He asked me to do something,”Su Rui said.
“Do what?”Su Zhe asked curiously.
“I can’t tell you…”Su Rui said with some difficulty.
“You can’t tell me?”Su Zhe glared at him. Su Rui was really a little afraid.
“Alright then, all of You Leave!”Su Rui waved his hand, and all of the guards around Su Zhe retreated far away.
After the guards and attendants left, Su Rui whispered to su zhe, “He asked me to send people to spread the news that we have the key.”
“We Have It?”Su Zhe was stunned.
“How would I know?”Su Rui curled his lips.
“That’s not right. If we really have it, he should secretly look for us and open the treasure house! Isn’t it asking for trouble if we alert those elders?”Su Zhe frowned and asked.
“How would I know?”Su Rui shrugged.
“What does this guy want?”Su Zhe frowned.
“Why are you thinking so much? Since the prophecy says that he is the savior and that he can help us, he must have a way,”Su Rui said very casually.
“Do you really believe that prophecy?”Su Zhe frowned. He did not have that much confidence in Jiang Fei. Perhaps because of the prophecy, Su Rui’s trust in Jiang Fei was already blind.
“Of course! Why wouldn’t I believe it?”Su Rui said with a matter-of-fact expression.
“Sigh! It doesn’t make sense to you!”Su Zhe shook his head and returned to the palace.
“This is ridiculous!”Su Rui shrugged and left the palace.
Two days later, the entire capital was in an uproar. Everyone was talking about the theft of the Elders Guild’s key. Moreover, they were describing it as if it was something out of the ordinary.
Under such an atmosphere, the elders only endured for half a day before they gathered together again.
“I heard that the key was stolen!”
“Impossible! That place is so hidden, and he doesn’t have a keepsake. How could he possibly open the door!”
“It’s hard to say. The description outside is pretty accurate.”
“Yeah, especially the description of the shape of the key. There’s really nothing wrong with it!”
“Could it really have been stolen?”
“They can’t open the door. Even if they found the place, how could they have stolen the key?”
“Who told you that you have to open the door to steal the key? There’s a rumor outside saying that they dug a tunnel and bypassed the main door!”
“DAMN! Is that true?”
“It sounds like it’s true. I don’t think it’s groundless!”
“Then what should we do?”
“Go and take a look!”
“Un! We have to go and take a look. Otherwise, we won’t be able to rest assured!”
“That’s right! If we don’t go and take a look, we won’t be able to sleep soundly in the future.”
“Sleep soundly? If it’s really lost, we have to go to the Treasury to block it. We Can’t Let His Majesty and the others open the Treasury!”
“That’s right! Even if we have to use our lives, we have to stop them!”
..
Soon, the elders reached an agreement. Although they did not know if the key had really been stolen, they had to go and confirm it.
“We’ve finally taken the bait!”Jiang Fei, who was listening from the window outside, smiled.
Soon, the elders returned home. After they took their commander’s keepsakes, they gathered together again and quietly headed to a remote valley outside the city.
“They are really well hidden. If they did not lead the way, I really would not have been able to find them!”Jiang Fei followed them from afar. As he could not release his spiritual power, he could not search a large area. Therefore, he could only rely on his strategy, he let these people lead the way.
An invisibility followed behind these people. Jiang Fei entered the valley. At that moment, he was almost flying close to the ground. Although he was about the same height as he was walking, his feet never touched the ground.
The reason why Jiang Fei did this was very simple. He was afraid that he would step on some dead branches or stones. The sound would make the elders in front excited. If these people knew that someone was following him.., then, not to mention that Jiang Fei’s plan had failed, the elders would definitely not fall for it again.
After entering the valley, the elders went around in circles. Finally, they came to a cliff. If one were to observe with their eyes, the cliff here was plain. It was not even very steep, it looked very inconspicuous.
“Come On!”The leader of the elders called out to the group. After some operations, the ground cracked open and a platform rose up.
Immediately after, the other elders went forward and took out their keepsakes one by one. Then, they placed them at the designated gap on the stone platform. Soon, all the gaps were mended. Then, with a slight sound of a mechanism, the cliff cracked open!
