Noticing Fang Yuan curiously examining the Sky-Slaying Halberd, Jiang Che gave a knowing smile.

Just like he said earlier, this treasure was the source of his confidence.

Within the Sky-Slaying Halberd, there were Spatial Dao Patterns, making it an offensive Spirit Treasure capable of wielding the Power of Space.

If he were unprepared it would be one thing, but now that he knew in advance, Jiang Che already had a plan to counter Forbidden Weapons.

"Since you really have a way to deal with Forbidden Weapons, boss, I won't persuade you all to leave anymore.

I'm here just to inform you about this matter. Now that it's done, I'll take my leave."

Withdrawing his gaze from the Sky-Slaying Halberd, Fang Yuan bid farewell and turned to leave.

After all, the boss had a way to resist Forbidden Weapons, which he himself could not withstand.

"Hey, wait! Now that you're here, why not come inside and have a look!"

At that moment, Jiang Che suddenly spoke, inviting with a cheerful tone.

The second brother had come to deliver news out of goodwill, worried for their safety, and had even tried to persuade him to leave several times earlier.

Now, Jiang Che felt a bit more recognition for this brother who wasn't as heartless as he thought.

This guy wasn't as ungrateful as he had imagined.

And since the second brother had come all the way here, Jiang Che naturally couldn't let him leave empty-handed.

Coincidentally, the Bodhi Holy Tree had two ripe Bodhi Fruits, which could be given to the second brother.

The Bodhi Fruit was effective even for someone at Jiang Che's Fifth Stage, and its effect would be even greater for Fang Yuan, who was at the Third Stage.

This was evident from Nangong Luo's recent breakthrough.

If the second brother's strength improved, Jiang Che could naturally receive tenfold feedback and further his own cultivation, killing two birds with one stone.

Fang Yuan paused, turned around, and looked towards Peach Grove Valley behind the two tigers.

"Is there something in there...?"

He vaguely sensed that something extraordinary seemed to be within the valley.

Instantly, his curiosity was piqued, wondering what treasures might be hidden in this Spiritual Qi-filled valley.

"Alright then! But after I take a look, I really have to go."

After a moment of hesitation, Fang Yuan nodded in agreement.

"Hmph, it's not like anyone's begging you to stay! If you don't want to go in, no one will stop you."

Nangong Luo snorted, looking displeased at Fang Yuan.

"I'm going in today for a look. What's it to you?"

Fang Yuan was annoyed, as the third sister was endlessly provoking him.

"You can go in, but keep your hands to yourself, don't..."

Thinking of the Bodhi Holy Tree, Nangong Luo couldn't help but warn Fang Yuan.

Before she finished, Fang Yuan was furious, stepping forward and retorted, "What do you mean? You suspect this Demon Monarch... me…"

A dignified Demon Monarch, being suspected as a thief today, it was an utter humiliation that Fang Yuan couldn't endure.

If it weren't for the inappropriate circumstances, he would have fought to the death with Nangong Luo.

"Alright, alright, let's all go in!"

Jiang Che, speechless, quickly interrupted the budding argument between the two.

If these two got too heated, they might actually start fighting.

Hearing Jiang Che's words, the two tense tigers finally relaxed.

"In that case, let the second brother go first! After all, he is the guest!"

After the tension subsided, Nangong Luo's eyes shifted, quickly stepping back and becoming unusually courteous.

This Peach Grove Valley had her Cyan Mist Illusion Array. As long as Fang Yuan was tricked inside, she could activate the array to thoroughly tease the second brother.

Thinking of this, Nangong Luo's gaze on Fang Yuan showed a playful look beneath her warm demeanor.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yuan froze, immediately becoming vigilant.

"There's definitely something fishy going on!"

Just moments ago, she was mocking him, and now she's being so courteous. The change in attitude was too quick, wasn't it?

Anyone would find it strange.

With suspicion in his heart, Fang Yuan's gaze shifted between Nangong Luo and Peach Grove Valley, trying to spot any clues.

Unfortunately, no matter how much he looked, Fang Yuan couldn't find anything amiss.

Watching Fang Yuan's head turn back and forth, Nangong Luo felt triumphant, immediately using a disdainful look to provoke him: "What, are you scared? You don't even dare to enter a valley? Who was it that just said they had to go in and take a look?"

Nangong Luo didn't fear Fang Yuan discovering anything was wrong; this was her open scheme. If Fang Yuan backed out now, it meant he had lost and retreated.

Which would exactly suit her purpose.

Even knowing there was deceit, Fang Yuan didn't want to admit defeat just like that.

He couldn't believe that as a dignified Demon Monarch, he would be bested by the third sister, so he steeled his heart and confidently declared: "What's there to be afraid of in a little valley!

Hmph, I'll go. Let's see what you can do to me!"

With that, Fang Yuan strode towards Peach Grove Valley.

Standing beside him, Jiang Che could only smile bitterly.

He hadn't expected the third sister to not give up and wanted to use the Cyan Mist Illusion Array to toy with Fang Yuan.

And Fang Yuan couldn't refuse due to being in a tight spot, so he had no choice but to go ahead.

However, Jiang Che didn't stop him either; he also wanted to see if Fang Yuan, this Ancient Demon Monarch, could break Nangong Luo's array.

Watching Fang Yuan approach the Cyan Mist Illusion Array step by step, Nangong Luo's eyes were full of mischief, clearly waiting to see some fun.

At the entrance of Peach Grove Valley, Fang Yuan cautiously stepped in.

In an instant, it was as if he had entered another world; the once clearly visible Peach Grove had vanished entirely, leaving only endless blue mist ahead.

Fang Yuan was first startled, then quickly composed himself. After examining carefully, a look of disdain filled his eyes.

"I thought something terrifying awaited this Demon Monarch, yet it's merely a little array!

Ha, this simple Mist Array, the Demon Monarch had outgrown back in the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation!"

Fang Yuan sneered inwardly.

In a previous life, as a great Demon Monarch, he had extensive knowledge, including arrays.

If the third sister thought such an array could stump him, she was gravely mistaken.

Outside the valley, seeing Fang Yuan step into the array, Nangong Luo rejoiced, quickly moving closer to activate the Cyan Mist Illusion Array.

At the same time, the Illusion Array seemed to stir, with rolling mist surging from all directions, trying to obscure Fang Yuan's vision and mislead his judgment.

"Such a petty trick!"

Unfazed by the array's actions, Fang Yuan's expression remained unchanged, as his dark tiger eyes glowed faintly with a crimson hue.

Then, looking forward, he saw many flowing golden array patterns in his sight.

Following the flow of the golden array patterns, Fang Yuan moved back and forth in the blue mist space.

A moment later, he easily entered the Peach Grove without the slightest disturbance from the array.

"How is this possible!"

Controlling the array, Nangong Luo was utterly shocked.

She intended to embarrass Fang Yuan, but didn't expect him to understand arrays too!

A complete miscalculation!
