The moonlight was hiding within the thick clouds; it only revealed a slight trace of light, making it hard to see clearly.
In the shadows of the night, Su Luo, who was hiding behind the pillars could not see clearly, but she didn't dare impudently look. She could only use her peripheral vision to see a little.
Su Bowu coldly stared at Nangong Liuyun as a trace of murderous intent flashed across his eyes: "The Treasure Pavilion is sacred ground. Unauthorized people should turn around and leave immediately."
Nangong Liuyun laughed but his eyes were freezing cold. His manner was completely different from how he acted in front of Su Luo, "And if I insist on entering?"
"Kill without regard!" Su Bowu's voice was heartlessly grim and unfeeling. It faintly penetrated the dark night with a hair raising feeling of horror.
His voice revealed his self-assured confidence.
Over the years in the Su Manor, the Hidden Treasure Pavilion was always very safe because it was protected by this sixth step elder. Throughout the entire Eastern Ling Empire, there were very few who were stronger than a sixth step expert; they could all be counted on one hand.
This was why Su Bowu could have such confidence.
Prince Jin's entire body was hidden beneath a layer of black garments; the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile as his eyes flashed with an insolent fierceness: "Kill without regard? Then let's see who will kill whom."
"Such arrogance! Since you want to die so much, then this old man will grant your wish!" Su Bowu's mouth curled into an icy sneer, as his eyes now brimmed with murderous intent. A pair of eyes with a sinister gaze stared at Nangong Liuyun as if he was looking at a dead man.
After guarding the Hidden Treasure Pavilion for so many years, it was not as if he had never seen a thief before, but he had ever guarded against such an arrogant thief before.
Su Bowu had just barely finished speaking when a pair of scorching hot Iron Sand Palms was sent to attack Nangong Liuyun. The wind send by the palm carried a flaming blaze that was hot enough to roast a person.
Su Bowu was a fire attribute mage. As a young man, he travelled across the entire world and his Iron Sand Palms were famous throughout the entire Eastern Ling Empire.
He was obviously infuriated by Nangong Liuyun since his first move was a killing strike.
Each move was heartless and unfeeling with a strong intent to kill.
Nangong Liuyun did not panic; the corner of his mouth slightly smirked as his eyes coldly pressured. His entire body was covered in thick unyielding power and awe-inspiring dignity.
The Iron Sand Palm brought a flaming blaze that aggressively headed toward him with threatening heat.
Nangong Liuyun turned both of his hands and clasped them together. As soon as he separated them, a huge round ball of water was pulled from the center of his palm and ejected forward——
When the Iron Sand Palm meet the ball of water, it was immediately extinguished.
A touch of astonishment flashed across Su Bowu's eyes. He never thought that this thief would have such high martial skills; unexpectedly, the thief was able to break through his most famous move.
"Good, since you're wholeheartedly begging to die, then have a taste of my Hell Fire!" Su Bowu's voice barely ended before both his hands successfully agglomerated individual fireballs. One after another, the fireballs attacked Nangong Liuyun and completely surrounded him in all directions.
"Ah——" Nangong Liuyun was unable to suppress a sudden cry of pain. His right hand held onto his left arm as he fiercely glared at Su Bowu. "As long as the mountains stand and rivers flow, till we meet again!"
The sound of his voice had not dropped and he simply withdrew using a strange skill. But there was clearly a trace of shakyness to his stature, and he seem to be heavily injured.
"You want to come and go as you please? What kind of place do you think Su Manor is? Stay!" Su Bowu coldly snorted a few times and countless number of small fireballs shot towards Nangong Liuyun.
But it seemed as if Nangong Liuyun had eyes on the back of his head. He strangely dodged and side-stepped, and just couldn't get hit.
This time, he really angered Su Bowu!
He coldly snorted a few more times, and immediately moved his body to give chase!
But outside of his expectations, Nangong Liuyun's speed did not seem to slow down as he aimlessly fled all over Su Manor.
For a long time, Su Bowu could not chase him down. His heart become even more furious as he fiercely vowed to capture this shameless little thief and give him some serious punishment.
But how could he possibly know that Nangong Liuyun was not wounded, and was merely just initiating the stratagem of moving the tiger from the mountain.
The two person in pursuit were not quiet, and attracted a lot of people's attention.
Poor Su Bowu closely pursued without letting go, so he did not know that Su Luo on the other corner began to move.
Su Luo saw that all around her was quiet. There was not even a trace of a human shadow, and the corner of her mouth slowly raised into a sly smiling expression.
Indeed, this was the great Nangong Liuyun; his use of moving the tiger from the mountain was really entertaining.
At first Su Luo thought that Nangong Liuyun really did get hurt, but after seeing him having the relaxed frame of mind to throw her flirtatious glances while running away, she was reassured.
The mysterious iron lock was made by the number one cleverest craftsman in Eastern Ling; the lock's core was complicated and hard to solve, but this was merely to resist and unnerve others.
Having opened a variety of complex modern locks, Su Luo could not be stumped by this lock.
She retrieved a small thin hairpin and use it to fiddle around within the keyhole, both eyes vigilantly watched her surroundings, ears listening for movements in all directions.
Caution and prudence was her entire body's instinct.
She wholeheartedly used all three of her senses; her hand movement did not seem to slow down for she was quite familiar with this fiddling movement.
"Click…." in less than ten seconds, the legendary unconquerable mysterious iron lock fell into ruin in Su Luo's hand.
Thus, Su Luo quietly opened the lock, then hung it back on the door, and entered the room. Then she quietly closed the door with an movement that resembled moving clouds and flowing water, and smoothly completed in one go.
This lock was said to be made by the world's number one cleverest craftsman, but under Su Luo's omnipotent ability to open all locks, it collapsed at the first blow, and it was quickly cracked.
Entering the first floor of the Hidden Treasure Pavilion, Su Luo would not dare to light a lamp, because once a lamp gets lit in the room, assuredly, it was telling people: thieves are here, quickly catch them!
Fortunately Su Luo's vision was superb; to others this scene was pitch-dark, but for her, the line of sight was only slightly blurred.
The first floor lobby contains lots of shelves made out of pear tree wood. Every nook was also lined with small iron boxes and trunks.
Su Luo looked at it one by one. She discovered that they just common gold, silver, and pearl jewelry, while the iron boxes were full of gold and silver bars.
Although this stuff was very useful, she was only one person, and essentially cannot take them away.
Su Luo sighed with some regret and several reluctant-to-part backward glances at the valuable gold and silver treasure. Finally, she firmly turned around and nimbly stepped on the staircase, walking up step by step.
The stuff on the second floor was a little better than those on the first floor. It was full of rare medicinal herbs; Ginseng as thick as the back of one's hand, thousand year old Lingzhi Mushroom, Sky Mountain Snow Lotus and other types of very old medicinal herbs.
The air permeated with a dense herbal aroma.
Su Luo felt around for a long time at that place, but still did not find the Celestial Spirit water that she need.
She secretly become anxious; she did not know where this treasure is hidden.
After much contemplation, the possibility that it was on the third floor was the greatest.
Su Luo's foot briefly touched the ground. With lithe agility, she reached for the staircase and after one sweeping movement, her figure flashed pass and arrived at the entrance to the third floor staircase.
She knew that now she needed to increase her pace.
Don't know how much longer Nangong Liuyun can stall Su Bowu.
If Su Bowu were to mentally recover, he would clearly see through this stratagem of moving the tiger from the mountain and return. She would then bump into him head on and this good-for-nothing would not be able to beat him.
Or if her father Su Zian heard the movements inside Su Manor, with meticulous care would come and inspect the Hidden Treasure Pavilion. Then she really will be exposed, at that time she won't even know how to cry.
