The last sentence was directed at Shawnee. Shawnee was momentarily stunned: "Junior Sister, are you trying to rob me? I'm your Senior Brother."
"Senior Brother? Hmph. It's definitely you, no need to doubt it! What nonsense Senior Brother, when you got those Treasures, did you think of me, your Junior Sister? You only pretend to share when you need me. Bah! Hand everything over, or I will kill all of you immediately." Ransu's eyes were filled with rage and greed. She first looked at the Disciple from the Peak of the Human Realm and coldly said, "Hand it over, all of it. My patience is running thin."
The Peak of the Human Realm was also a girl. Seeing Ransu's predatory demeanor, she felt scared because she understood women well, so she quickly took out the Treasures she had obtained.
Ransu struck her with a palm, knocking her unconscious. Then she turned to Long Yang: "It's your turn now. Hurry up."
Long Yang truly had no strength left to fight; he could only hand over his Treasures. Fortunately, he hadn't obtained much. Ransu knocked him out with another punch.
Finally, Ransu coldly looked at Shawnee: "Senior Brother, it's your turn now. Hand it over. Out of respect for our sect relationship, I will spare your life."
"Fine, you have guts. Treating me like this will bring you retribution." Although Shawnee was tough, circumstances were stronger than him, especially against a woman; he felt the pain deeply and thus obediently handed over all his Treasures.
As he pulled out all the Treasures, Guan Yue stared wide-eyed at the sight. So many Treasures! No wonder others were greedy. Shawnee had obtained too much, which was why it sparked such resentment.
As Ransu collected all the Treasures one by one, Guan Yue had already set up her Composite Domain, surrounding all five of them. At that moment, Ransu felt something was off but it was already too late.
Guan Yue suddenly appeared before her, and Gao Yuxin began attacking her with Resonance. In Guan Yue's Composite Domain, attacks were effective. Without this Composite Domain, Guan Yue truly had no way to deal with a Guardian Realm Practitioner.
Seeing that Guan Yue was a Disciple from the Peak of the Human Realm made Ransu laugh involuntarily; she forced herself to endure the pain from Palace Sea and smiled broadly at Guan Yue: "Little Brother, what brings you here?"
"To seek justice." Guan Yue countered her with words from the Western Celestial Law Ancestor; he had just witnessed Ransu's entire robbery process and held disdain for her in his heart. Since the Western Celestial Law Ancestor said they had Wormwood on them, then he would have to offend Ransu.
"Justice? Am I not administering justice right now?" Ransu wanted to smile at Guan Yue, but the pain from Palace Sea under Gao Yuxin's control intensified, making her smile look worse than crying.
Guan Yue stepped forward and pointed at Shawnee: "He is your Senior Brother; why did you rob him?"
"Senior Brother, he doesn't even regard me as a junior sister. He selfishly hoards so much Treasure; it's truly unforgivable," Ransu glared at Shawnee, her eyes filled with resentment and no hint of remorse.
Guan Yue retorted, "Miss, didn't you all agree to rely on luck and not compete with each other? Now, do you not want to share and wish to keep it all for yourself?"
"Why should I share with you? We fought and bled for this; what have you done?" Ransu was furious, but deep down, she felt a strong fear towards Guan Yue because the inexplicable pain in her Palace Sea made her feel that Guan Yue had an air of mystery about her.
Gao Yuxin was desperately channeling Resonance to attack Ransu's Palace Sea, but as a Guardian Realm Practitioner, Ransu's powerful control allowed her to suppress the pain to a bearable level. The difference in strength was an undeniable reality.
Guan Yue said, "Hand everything over. Let me see what treasures you have. I only need one item; the rest can be evenly divided by you and this Shawnee. You will still be senior and junior siblings afterward. How does that sound?"
"Why should I trust you? No way," Ransu strongly opposed giving up what she had already obtained. However, she hesitated to act out of fear of Guan Yue's methods. She worried that if she made a move, Guan Yue would employ even stronger tactics against her; after all, she couldn't see through Guan Yue.
"Do you agree?" Guan Yue asked Shawnee again, who nodded in response.
Guan Yue was very pleased; hosting justice and gaining a friend in the Vast Empire was truly wonderful. From now on, I must preside over more such matters.
"Then let's have a match. As long as you can run beyond two thousand meters, I'll consider it a loss and won't trouble you anymore. What do you say?" Guan Yue confidently proposed to Ransu.
Ransu frowned slightly, "Really?"
"I never joke. Besides, I mean it. Let's begin." With that, Guan Yue waved her hands, and Gao Yuxin immediately coordinated; the Composite Domain truly surrounded Ransu.
Ransu felt herself enveloped in a thick fog, isolated from the world.
Guan Yue's voice echoed, "Let me ask you again: will you hand it over or not? Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Ransu sneered, "Stop pretending; if you're capable, come out and let's fight. If I lose, I'll hand it over."
"Fine, I'll grant your request." At that moment, Guan Yue reappeared.
Guan Yue was very satisfied with this Composite Domain, managing to trap Ransu, the Boundary Keeper, and her Great Power inside. It truly was a miracle!
Of course, Guan Yue's actions had an even greater impact on Ransu and Shawnee. They couldn't comprehend how a kid at the Peak of the Human Realm could take down Ransu, the Boundary Keeper!
Guan Yue slowly threw a punch at Ransu, executing the first move of the Li Zu Divine Fist: Rescue in the Wind.
What? This kid thinks he can hit me with the Li Zu Divine Fist? Before Ransu could finish her mocking thought, she realized something was wrong. She had completely lost her power; now Ransu felt like an ordinary person without any Origin Energy to draw upon. Only a trace of Inner Strength remained to protect her, but that Inner Strength was insufficient to withstand Guan Yue's punch. She could already hear the overwhelming force behind that punch. The sound of Origin Energy slicing through the air was deafening!
Just as Ransu attempted to dodge, that punch struck her head mercilessly, and she instantly lost consciousness.
Guan Yue rummaged through Ransu's Storage Ring and dumped everything out.
This was a windfall, and a significant one at that. Ransu's ring contained all sorts of treasures: Vermilion Jade, gold, clothing, weapons, and even all the Treasures she had just acquired from the secret place.
Guan Yue called upon the Western Ancestor to identify everything and finally found Wormwood. It turned out that Wormwood was a yellow-black withered branch, but it had several fresh leaves on it that were vibrant and striking, looking quite peculiar. The Western Celestial Law Ancestor carefully collected that precious withered branch while barely glancing at anything else.
Guan Yue was also clever; seeing all this made him realize that this Red-Furred Monkey actually had a Storage Ring as well, which must contain many Treasures even more valuable than those discovered in this secret place.
With that in mind, Guan Yue didn't think too much about it. After all, whatever belonged to the Western Celestial Law Ancestor was his property; there was no need for him to "administer justice."
Feeling excited about everything before him, Guan Yue stepped out of the Composite Domain and walked over to Shawnee. He said to him, "Shawnee, I admire you as a person, so I'll only take a few items for myself; the rest are yours."
Guan Yue only took two beautiful-looking weapons that he planned to give to Ouyang Shaohua and handed everything else over to Shawnee. Shawnee couldn't believe that Guan Yue only chose two seemingly worthless items while leaving everything else for him, including what belonged to the other four people.
Shawnee was thrilled: "No, no! I mean, you're still at the Peak of the Human Realm and need some medicine to help you break through to the Guardian Realm. You should take these." As he spoke, Shawnee carefully selected over ten types of medicine and handed them to Guan Yue. Guan Yue thought about it; since Ouyang Shaohua was also at the Peak of the Human Realm and needed these medicines too, he decided to keep them. These were rare ancient medicines!
Then Guan Yue asked Shawnee, "Do you know Du Diwei from Your Country? He is of royal descent."
"From the Du Family? Of course I know him... Du Diwei...? He wouldn't be the second son of the Du Family, would he? Didn't he go to the Southern Source Empire?" Shawnee's response made Guan Yue realize he had asked the right person.
"Du Diwei is my friend, and he has returned to the Vast Empire. Where is the Du Family? Is it in the Wandering City?" Guan Yue asked again.
"The Du Family is located on the west side outside the Wandering City, in a large city. The Du Family is one of the prominent families in our Vast Empire. My brother told me that Du Diwei might be getting engaged to the Second Princess," Shawnee said, having heard that Guan Yue was a friend of Du Diwei, and thus felt more inclined to talk, as it was always beneficial to communicate with friends of Du Diwei.
"Is your brother close to Du Diwei?" Guan Yue asked cautiously.
"My brother is also at the Peak of the Human Realm. Before Du Diwei went to the Southern Source Empire, he often practiced with my brother," Shawnee explained.
"In that case, your Xiao Family is also a prominent family."
"Our Xiao Family ranks third in the Vast Empire, while their Du Family ranks fifth," Shawnee said with a hint of pride. "May I ask which empire you are from?"
"I am from the Southern Source Empire and studied alongside Du Diwei at Qilin Academy. My name is Guan Yue," Guan Yue introduced himself directly and then asked, "What about Ransu and Long Yang?"
Shawnee was in a good mood at that moment and replied lightly, "Let them go; I don't think they can cause much trouble. However, while they can escape death, they can't escape punishment. Leave it to me; I'll take care of them."
Shawnee praised Guan Yue's combat power.
Guan Yue and Shawnee hit it off immediately, feeling as if they had known each other for a long time. They chatted for quite a while until Ransu woke up. Only then did Guan Yue take his leave, and they exchanged contact information before parting ways.
Now that he knew Du Diwei's address, it would be easier for Guan Yue to find him in the future, which lifted his spirits considerably.
