Saving everything will only end up hurting you!

Originally, when players went to the Wandering Spirit Dungeon to level up, they wouldn't carry many items on them.

For example, things like mount bells or Hideout keys.

Zhixian Ren was the same; before, he always kept these stored in a chest inside his Hideout.

But it brought some inconveniences.

For instance, without a mount bell, it would take over half an hour to travel to the Wandering Spirit Dungeon.

Or take the Hideout key. As the owner of a Hideout, one could perform related operations within the Hideout's range, but one could also forge a key; carrying it allowed one to operate the Hideout from the outside, or trade the key to others to transfer Hideout ownership…

Now… after learning that 'Shadow' had dealt with and taken away that Thief Saint, Zhixian Ren didn't need to worry about that anymore. For convenience, he brought all the useful items with him, including the 'Golden Magic Talisman'.

And so… he was swept up in one go by the players from the Shudao Mountain Guild!

"You… despicable!"

After Zhixian Ren realized what had happened, he immediately started cursing!

In the guild channel, he explained to his guild members: "The people from the Shudao Mountain Guild have no martial ethics! They used some sort of Thieving Saint Talisman and stole my mount bell, Hideout key, and Golden Magic Talisman!!"

In an instant, many players who had been forcibly kicked out of their Hideouts were filled with righteous indignation!

"Shudao Mountain Guild? Thieving Saint Talisman? How shameless can they be?"

"Damn it, come out! See if I don't smash you to death!"

"I was wondering what was going on; I was in my room, halfway through changing clothes, when I suddenly felt a chill! Give me back my innocence!"

"Return our items!!"

At this moment, on the courtyard wall of the Half-Mountain Taoist Temple, over twenty assassins from the Shudao Mountain Guild all revealed themselves.

Separated by the magic defensive barrier that now belonged to them, they all wore grinning faces.

Among them, the leader, 'Indian Turtledove', a middle-aged uncle, said with a chuckle: "We obtained these treasures with our own ability; how could we possibly return them to you?"

Hearing this, Zhixian Ren immediately spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Was this a boomerang hitting his own head?!

…

At this time, Qin Feng, along with Bamboo Girl, was riding Osirio, soaring high in the sky!

"Wow!"

"Riding this flying dragon is so damn comfortable."

Bamboo Girl looked excited, jumping up and down on Osirio's back.

Suddenly, Osirio made a confused sound: "What the heck is she saying?"

Clearly, this guy had been instilled with Chinese, but he couldn't understand dialects, only Mandarin.

And the girl 'I Don't Eat Bamboo' was startled by this guy: "Eh, it, it, it can talk?"

Osirio: "What, never seen a dragon that can talk? So ignorant."

Bamboo Girl laughed: "As expected of Big Brother Shadow, even your mount can talk! Hey, Brother Flying Dragon, what do you think of me?"

Osirio gave a disdainful laugh: "My assessment is, not as good as the original…"

Bamboo Girl: "Huh? You play Genshin too?"

Osirio was stunned: "What play Genshin? Don't interrupt me, bro. I'm saying you're not as good as those women from before! You look like you have no meat; by human standards, you're too thin!"

"Uh."

Bamboo Girl didn't seem unhappy at all; instead, she became even more interested in Osirio: "I just look like I have no meat, but you really have no meat, my little brother."

She patted the bone feathers on Osirio's back, as if she had found a fun toy.

Osirio looked disdainful: "A moment ago you called me Brother Flying Dragon, and in the blink of an eye, I've become your little brother?"

Bamboo Girl: "Oh my, this is the profoundness of our Chinese language. If you want to learn, I can teach you…"

"…"

Qin Feng was a bit surprised.

It seemed these two were actually quite 'compatible'?

At this moment, the girl seemed to receive some private messages, and she replied to handle them…

"Big Brother Shadow, thank you so much."

The girl looked at Qin Feng, her beautiful eyes filled with admiration: "We've solved the matter!"

Then she told Qin Feng about the situation. Qin Feng nodded, not paying much attention.

mount bells and Hideout keys, their value was just so-so.

After all, that was only a Gold-grade Hideout, about the size of a soccer field.

At the current stage, a guild like Zhixian Ren's, although it didn't have a Platinum-grade Hideout, generally had several Gold-grade Hideouts; otherwise, it couldn't accommodate so many members.

If you really calculated it, this move by the Shudao Mountain Guild, apart from the 'Golden Magic Talisman', basically just broke even.

The Thieving Saint Talisman needed to be used in the later stages, targetedly, to unleash its maximum effect!

Of course…

Now that Eight-Armed Thief Saint had already been repatriated to the Evil Spirit Academy by Qin Feng.

Guild NPCs belonging to him could only be repatriated to his Guild Hideout, which was the Evil Spirit Academy in the Magic City Ruins.

And without Qin Feng's consent, that NPC could not leave the Hideout.

"In the future, just sell the Thieving Saint Talismans directly to the Government."

Qin Feng wasn't worried about sales.

This item was very useful for the Government, and by giving it to the Government, there was no need to worry about causing Chaos or anything like that…

Besides, even if the Government used it and something went wrong, it had nothing to do with him.

Later, he could discuss it with the Government, and he would obtain a stable revenue channel…

Osirio flew while 'exchanging greetings' with Bamboo Girl.

Their destination was another mountain range over three hundred kilometers outside the Sichuan Ruins, where Knowledge Eye Aristotle was located.

Qin Feng had already prepared classic insults from various provinces, guaranteeing he wouldn't let that Big Eyes down…

He had originally planned to take that Big Eyes away and then return.

Suddenly, Qin Feng heard a disgusting 'quack, quack' sound coming from a forest below.

"Such a loud noise, could it be some kind of BOSS?"

Qin Feng glanced at his skill bar.

The newly learned 'Thieving Saint's Hand' skill hadn't evolved much yet, and it was exactly the time when he lacked Evolution Points.

Since he had encountered it, he couldn't miss it.

"Go down and take a look."

Qin Feng gave the instruction to Osirio.

Osirio quickly glided down, his giant Bone Sword Wyvern body bringing up a ghostly white stream of light as he dove downward!

Once closer, Qin Feng finally saw…

A giant ink-green Toad Man was chasing and killing a group of players!

— —

[Toad Demon · Guaji Leader (Lv20)!]

[Grade: Emerald-grade]

[Description: The leader of the Toad Man tribe in the Banana Forest!]

The Toad Demon was surrounded by black aura, stood over ten meters tall, and was actually standing upright on two legs, its pair of toad eyes locking onto a fleeing female player.

*Swoosh!*

The Toad Demon opened its mouth and shot out an ink-green tongue, wrapping it directly around the female player's waist, pulling her back to stuff her into its mouth.

Just at this moment, a Young Swordsman wearing Platinum-grade armor appeared.

"Courting death!"

Seeing the female player trapped, the Young Swordsman immediately attacked. As if he had greased the soles of his feet, he erupted with unparalleled speed, and the long sword in his hand released crescent-shaped sword energy!

Nine consecutive crescent sword energy strikes swept across, actually severing the Toad Demon's ink-green tongue!

Then, the Young Swordsman quickly stepped forward, taking the opportunity to carry the female player back.

"How did I run into this?"

Qin Feng was stunned when he saw this scene.

That female player… she was not worth saving!

He really wanted to say to that Young Swordsman, saving everything will only end up hurting you!
