The footsteps got closer.
Soon, the people walked into the Sunset Shrine. Standing there, Alex looked over, only to realize that
he knew the people who came.
They were people who had entered the Infernal Realm after receiving Phaselessâ invitation earlier.
There were nine people in total. Meanwhile, Lucille and Emmerich, who had a good talk with Alex
earlier, were surprisingly listed among the people.
He could see traces of battles to some extent on their bodies, and there were several injured people.
They must have encountered Puppet Immortals on the way.
The people were astonished when they saw Alex alone, standing indifferently in the middle of the
shrine, with the tall seat that Athena once sat behind him. Soon, the woman called Lucille yawned and
came forward. âOh my, itâs you, Brother. So, you have been here long ago. How long have you been
here?â
Alex stretched out his hand. âStop! Iâm not acquainted with you. I canât afford to speak the word
âbrotherâ.â
Lucilleâs expression stiffened. âBrother, what are you talking about? Hadnât we talked all the way when
we came in? Could it be that youâre still upset about what we did to you before? Phaseless forced us to
do so. I was just pretending.â
Alex did not reply. His eyes turned cold.
Since Alex had Neela in his hand, he dared to take the bull by the horns and confront people like
Donovan and Phaseless. He even chose to fight Athena and Artemis head-on, so he showed no regard
for these few Imminent Immortal people.
However, the other people did not think so.
It was a cultivator in a traditional robe. Alex seemed to have heard the introduction before, saying that
this person was named Reine Swallow, a demon-catching cultivator from the Profound Sect. At this
moment, he glanced at the surroundings of the Sunset Shrine and said, âHaha, whatâs the point of
talking nonsense to this kind of ant-like being? This huge shrine looks very mysterious and ancient with
totally different styles. Thereâs definitely something good. Everyone, split up and find it. It will belong to
the one who finds it.â
As soon as he said that, the group of nine scattered in all directions like wolves, to look for it.
Unfortunately, this was a shrine that Athena had built. Previously, it specifically provided a place for
Athena to rest inside.
Other than the Goddess of Victory suit that Athena possessed, there was nothing else. From another
perspective, this shrine was illusory. It was a shrine that could only be seen and touched after sunset.
The shrine would disappear on the horizon when the sun rose, so what people saw would still be
dilapidated ruins.
Hence, this group of people did not find anything. As for the Law Stones whatsoever, Alex had long
taken them away.
On the other hand, the forbidden area of Rashomon that Athena had activated attracted all the Puppet
Immortals. Then, it wiped out all of them in one fell swoop. Finally, even the blood and flesh were also
digested and thrown into the spell formation. Now the interior of the shrine was clean without anything.
Even the set-up of the divine steel and cage inside the forbidden area of Rashomon was gone.
âHow can there be nothing at all?â
âImpossible. Itâs absolutely impossible. This shrine is so majestic and exquisite. The owner is definitely
a terrific big shot. Even if the owner simply left something behind, it will be more than enough for us.
Hmph, I think someone has beaten us to the punch!â
Such words were clearly directed at Alex.
In an instant, all the nine peopleâs gazes targeted Alex.
Reine came forward and said, âBrat, quickly take out the items that youâve acquired from this shrine,
otherwise you wonât end up well. I can send you to meet Hades with one sword slash.â
Alex said indifferently, âLet me advise you to be kind, Otherwise you will regret it.â
âAre you f*cking threatening me?â
Lucille came over to play good cop. âBrother, donât be a fool. Just as the saying goes, the wages of
avarice is death. You shouldnât lose your life without any reason just for some unjust fortune. Hurry up
and take them out. Otherwise, you will really die.â
Alex swept a glance at the crowd and said, âIf I say I didnât take them, will you believe me?â
âOnly dumb*ss will believe you!â
âTake them out immediately!â
âWhat nonsense are you talking about? Just find the magical treasure storage on him. Erase the seal
and pour out all of them to take a look. Wonât that be all clear?â
âGood idea, I agree!â
The one who spoke the last words was Lucilleâs senior, Emmerich.
âGo!â
Two people out of the nine people took the lead and rushed out.
