Chapter 2611: Chapter 2631: Senior, have you taken a fancy to some treasure?

In the dark, foreboding clouds, two figures were concealed like phantoms.

One of them was a middle-aged man with a short stature and a round face, who seemed to always carry a smile. The other was a tall and handsome man—unexpectedly, it was Bai Yunfei from the Shenkong Sect!

What was Bai Yunfei doing here?

Lin Chen suddenly remembered that Bai Yunfei had mentioned he was going to Western Hell when they had parted ways before.

To have encountered him here?

Then who was the person beside him?

An elder from his sect?

Three Quasi-Saints in the midst of battle, and yet they were secretly observing from the side. What were they planning to do?

Weren’t they afraid of getting caught up in it?

If people like Sidao Wang discovered them, a casual wipe-out would be such a loss, wouldn’t it?

No, that’s not right!

They couldn’t possibly fail to recognize that the combatants were Quasi-Saints, yet they still dared to lurk here. That meant they had confidence, at least the confidence to save their own lives.

Lin Chen’s eyes suddenly widened, and his gaze brightened in an instant.

Could this middle-aged man be the Saint of Thieves?

If he was truly the Saint of Thieves, then everything made sense.

Although the Saint of Thieves was weaker than many other Quasi-Saints in terms of strength, his Stealing Technique and mastery of the Law of Space were unparalleled in the Immortal Realm. Naturally, he had surefire life-saving tricks up his sleeve, so daring to watch here made sense. He might even be planning to take advantage when the opportunity arose—who knows, perhaps the Sky-Swallowing Altar or the Qingyun Cauldron.

Thinking this, Lin Chen suddenly came up with a bold idea.

He moved toward the two men silently, while sending a telepathic message to Bai Yunfei.

"Brother Bai, long time no see!"

Bai Yunfei, who was excitedly watching the battlefield below, suddenly heard a voice in his head and jumped in fright. When he turned around, he saw Lin Chen creeping over from a distance like a little thief. His pace wasn’t fast, but there was not a single fluctuation in his Breath—as if he was a lifeless stone.

Bai Yunfei widened his eyes: "Lin Chen! What are you doing here?"

The middle-aged man also took notice and turned to look at Lin Chen with a guarded expression.

Lin Chen quickly spoke up: "Senior, I am Bai Yunfei’s friend, Lin Chen!"

The middle-aged man’s eyes flickered with a hint of surprise. You, a kid of what level, actually dare to hide here and watch the battle of Quasi-Saints?

Bai Yunfei, looking at Lin Chen approaching, asked in surprise, "How did you get here? It’s very dangerous!"

Lin Chen ignored Bai Yunfei and instead respectfully clasped his fists toward the middle-aged man and transmitted his voice: "Senior, might you be the renowned Saint of Thieves?"

The middle-aged man’s gaze turned probing: "You know me?"

The Saint of Thieves!

It was truly him, the Saint of Thieves!

Lin Chen pointed toward the scene below: "I’ve heard Senior Zhen speak highly of the Saint of Thieves before..."

The middle-aged man, now known to be the Saint of Thieves, looked at Lin Chen in astonishment. "Are you with that woman?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, Senior. Although it may be presumptuous, I still hope that Senior can extend a helping hand and help Senior Zhen escape from death. If Senior doesn’t act, I fear Senior Zhen might indeed meet her end here."

The Saint of Thieves chuckled: "But that’s Sidao Wang, the Hall Master of the Myriad Immortals Hall. If I save someone, wouldn’t that offend him?"

Lin Chen blinked: "Did Senior have his eye on any Magical Treasure? The Sky-Swallowing Altar, the Qingyun Cauldron, or something else?"

The Saint of Thieves’s complexion stiffened for a moment before returning to normal. That split second of a reaction confirmed Lin Chen’s speculation.

This Saint of Thieves was truly audacious, actually thinking of stealing another’s Magical Treasure!

Lin Chen’s eyes sparkled: "Senior, how about I draw their attention, and while I do that, you could take action and steal the treasure... maybe save someone along the way?"

The Saint of Thieves looked amused: "You want to draw their attention? You’d be as good as dead then."

Lin Chen spread his hands and laughed offhandedly: "Don’t worry, I am only an Avatar at the moment; my True body isn’t here."

"An Avatar?"

The Saint of Thieves looked at Lin Chen with amazement: "So lifelike, this is a Bloodline Divine Power, isn’t it? Xiao Fei, you know him?"

Bai Yunfei nodded: "Yes, I’ve traveled with him for a while. He’s a really good friend—fearless and daring. I was actually considering recommending him to join the Shenkong Sect."

In the short span of a few sentences, the situation below had deteriorated even further.

The Time Domain could no longer hold and began to crumble inch by inch. The retaliatory strikes from Pang Yuanzhen and Sidao Wang caused Zhen Liuxue to continually spew blood, and her face began to age again from her previously youthful appearance.

Zhen Liuxue couldn’t hold on any longer!

Lin Chen wasted no more words, clasping his fists again: "Senior, please take action to save her, or it will be too late."

The Saint of Thieves stroked his chin, hesitated for a moment, then decisively spoke up: "Alright, let’s do it. Opportunities like this are rare. You draw their attention, and I’ll make my move!"

"Good!"

Lin Chen was elated in his heart and swiftly moved forward through the dark clouds.

Since the Saint of Thieves was eyeing the Magical Treasures, the best moment to act was naturally when they were attacking at full strength and unguarded.

As the Time Domain completely shattered, Pang Yuanzhen sneered and pointed a finger toward the midair Sky-Swallowing Altar.

The mouth of the Sky-Swallowing Altar instantly aimed at Zhen Liuxue, and just as it was about to suck in the critically injured and dying Zhen Liuxue, Lin Chen’s figure flashed out from the black cloud.

"Stop!"
