Several Wild Peak disciples began snickering as they heard Zhenyu's ridiculing words.
Zhenyu continued. "Unless, of course, these cursed artifacts of yours have developed legs and decided to go for a walk."
High Elder Shatter Peak burst into another fit of laughter. "HAHAHA! Senior, perhaps Taegong was chasing after them!"
Zhenyu nodded thoughtfully. "Ah! That could explain it." He looked toward the High Elder. "Is that what happened? Did your cursed artifacts escape, and Taegong went running after them?"
The High Elder's face twitched. "Senior, please..."
"Or perhaps the artifacts were so dangerous that Taegong decided to take them sightseeing?"
The Wild Peak disciples laughed even louder while Daoist Bone Ruler pressed his lips together.
He was deeply displeased by the Vault Division's apparent deception, but Zhenyu's increasingly ridiculous suggestions were making it difficult to maintain his usual stern expression.
