Chapter 498: Exposed in Public

Yuan Ming looked around at everyone, then turned his wrist and took out a white jade book, which was the jade book of recording images that he had obtained from Wu Yue Sect's Lu Da.

"This is a magic weapon of recording images, which can record images within a period of time. I believe you are all familiar with it. Unfortunately, the scene of Daoist Fellow Qingtong's sneak attack on Brother Long was recorded in it." Yuan Ming held the jade book and smiled at Qingtong, saying slowly.

Qingtong's face was stiff, and cold sweat oozed from his back.

After Yuan Ming said this, he cast a spell to activate the jade book of recording images, showing a video in front of everyone.

From Qingtong lurking close to Long Chong and attacking him, to leaving in stealth, a series of actions, even the subtle changes in Qingtong's expression after he succeeded, are very clear and cannot be explained at all.

Yuan Ming actually escaped from the magma lake a long time ago. The two bastards, Xueying and Hongling, did not capture the fire crocodile quietly as they said, but were earth-shattering and almost everyone knew it.

To avoid suspicion, Yuan Ming had to hide in the dark. He saw Qingtong attacking Long Chong from afar and recorded it with the Jade Book.

When everyone saw the picture, they fell silent. Those who supported Qingtong before were embarrassed.

Hou Santong's face turned redder. He was upright and hated deception and lying. He just defended Qingtong. He didn't expect that Qingtong was the one who lied.

Xue Jiao frowned and said nothing.

As for the others, they looked at Qingtong with disdain.

They were all the best in the major islands of the East China Sea. Although they could not be said to be righteous gentlemen, they had their own pride. Even if they really killed people and robbed treasures, they dared to do it and dared to take responsibility. They were quite disgusted with this kind of frame-up.

More importantly, Qingtong could attack Long Chong today, and he might attack them tomorrow!

The eyes of the people were like invisible slaps, slapping Qingtong's face fiercely, causing a burning pain.

However, it was hard to offend the public anger, and Qingtong did not quibble.

"I believe you have seen the facts of this matter clearly, so there is no need for Long to say anything more." Long Chong looked at Yuan Ming gratefully, and then said in a deep voice.

"Qingtong, what else do you have to say?" Qianbao Taoist stared at Qingtong with sharp eyes.

Qingtong looked at the people around him, and no one argued for him. Hou Santong and Xue Jiao also turned their heads and looked elsewhere, ignoring him.

For others, there was no difference between dividing Long Chong's treasures and dividing Qingtong's treasures, both of which were good things.

Qingtong snorted coldly with a gloomy face, took out the storage bag and shook it.

Crash...

A pile of spiritual materials, ores, and monster materials fell to the ground.

"As mentioned before, you leave on your own and are not allowed to team up with anyone again!" Qianbao Taoist drove him away unceremoniously.

Qingtong's eyes swept over Qianbao Taoist, Long Chong, and Yuan Ming, with deep resentment in them, and then turned around without saying a word and flew away.

Long Chong was very satisfied with the result. He nodded to Taoist Qianbao to express his gratitude and put the cold dragon back into the spirit beast bag.

Yuan Ming also took back the jade book of the photo album and stepped aside.

"Qing Tong plotted against Fellow Daoist Long, causing your spirit beast to be seriously injured. Fellow Daoist Long should take half of his gains as compensation. Everyone should have no objection, right?" said Taoist Qianbao.

This was reasonable. Although the others were dissatisfied, they did not show it.

Long Chong was not polite and took half of the gains.

"The rest of the things will be divided equally among us. Fellow Daoist Yuan used the photo artifact to reveal Qing Tong's true identity and made a contribution. You should give priority to picking two items." Taoist Qianbao said.

Yuan Ming nodded to Taoist Qianbao and was about to step forward.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan did make a great contribution this time, and the photo artifact was also quite mysterious. However, I don't agree with Fellow Daoist Yuan's behavior of secretly recording other people's privacy." Huan Lingzi said sarcastically.

"Fellow Daoist Huan Lingzi is not very old, but his memory is so bad? Why did Yuan use this jade book? Others may not know, but you don't know?" Yuan Ming glanced at Huan Lingzi and said lightly.

"What do I know?" Huan Lingzi didn't understand what Yuan Ming meant for a moment, and said in surprise.

"You and I fought before, and Yuan accidentally used heavy hands and killed Daoist's spirit beast, and even beat Daoist to flee with its tail between its legs. Now that we meet again, I am afraid that Daoist will be unable to think clearly and use some means to deal with me, so I am cautious and alert. I didn't expect to record Qingtong's mean means by accident. Now it seems that Yuan is narrow-minded, and Daoist Huan Lingzi's character is much nobler than Qingtong." Yuan Ming said with a smile.

After everyone gathered, he didn't want to attract other people's attention, so he has been quite low-key. This Huan Lingzi has repeatedly found fault with him, so he naturally won't be polite.

"Huan Lingzi was defeated by this man? His spirit beast was also killed?"

"The illusion of Kong Ling Island is amazing. With the help of the Huan Fox Clan, they are almost invincible at the same level. How could they lose!"

"Huan Lingzi's spirit beast, I remember, was a three-tailed demon fox. Without the help of the spirit beast, Huan Lingzi's strength was greatly reduced."

When the others heard this, they were surprised and whispered.

Huan Lingzi's face was gloomy, as if covered with a layer of frost, but he didn't say anything else.

Yuan Ming killed his spirit beast and took away his life magic weapon. Huan Lingzi has always been hostile to Yuan Ming. After everyone gathered here, Yuan Ming has been silent. Huan Lingzi wanted to suppress Yuan Ming with words, but he never thought that Yuan Ming would be so ruthless and directly expose his past.

"Fellow Daoist Huan Lingzi was just joking. Fellow Daoist Yuan doesn't need to take it seriously. Let's choose the spiritual materials quickly." Taoist Qianbao suddenly felt a little overwhelmed and tried to smooth things over.

Yuan Ming ignored Huan Lingzi and went forward to take away a brown-red third-level demon pill and a dark purple spiritual fruit.

Taoist Qianbao saw this scene and a strange look flashed across his eyes.

Yuan Ming returned safely from the magma lake and didn't seem to be injured much, which surprised Taoist Qianbao. He asked Yuan Ming to choose the spiritual materials first, on the one hand to show goodwill and make friends, and on the other hand to test Yuan Ming's background.

These two spiritual materials look like highly poisonous things. In addition to the magical powers that Yuan Ming showed before, he is also proficient in poison?

Others also came forward to take the treasures, and soon the spiritual materials on the ground were divided up.

"The trivial matters are dealt with. Next, let's start distributing the earth's core fire lotus." Taoist Qianbao said.

Everyone was refreshed when they heard this.

Yuan Ming, Taoist Qianbao, and Fairy Jinyun took out the earth-core fire lotuses they had picked, a total of 26.

"Except Qingtong, there are still 14 people. According to the previous discussion, each person can get a fire lotus first, and the remaining 12 will be discussed later." Taoist Qianbao waved his sleeves, and 14 earth-core fire lotuses floated up and stopped on everyone.

The people present took the fire lotuses and smiled, feeling that the trip was worthwhile.

"As for these 12 fire lotuses, everyone can take one, Fairy Jinyun and I will not need them." Taoist Qianbao said.

Fairy Jinyun looked calm, and obviously had no objection to this.

The others were very surprised when they heard this.

"In this case, Taoist Qianbao and Fairy Jinyun are at a disadvantage. We will each take out some spiritual materials to make up for your losses." Long Chong said.

"That's not necessary. We two are willing to give up this Earth Core Fire Lotus. On the contrary, Fairy Jinyun and I have something to ask of you." Taoist Qianbao shook his head.

"I wonder what fellow Taoist Qianbao is doing?" Qiongyun asked.

"To be honest, Fairy Jinyun and I came to this secret realm to find these two spiritual materials. If you encounter them while treasure hunting, please use this communication talisman to let us know. Thank you very much." Taoist Qianbao summoned a water curtain with a spiritual grass on it.

A fiery red spiritual grass with a very strange shape, like a flying fire phoenix.

The other is a emerald green spiritual vine with round leaves and many pearl-like purple-red fruits.

The names of the two spiritual herbs are written next to them, namely Fengming Grass and Ziyu Teng.

"Fengming Grass, Ziyu Teng? Xiying, do you know these two things? They actually made Taoist Qianbao and others give up the Earth Core Fire Lotus." Yuan Ming carefully looked at the water curtain and communicated with Xiying through voice transmission.

"Never heard of it." Xiying shook her head.

Yuan Ming was quite surprised. Xiying had a very broad knowledge, but she didn't recognize these two spiritual herbs. It seemed that they were two very rare spiritual materials.

"It turned out to be just such a small matter. Don't worry, Taoist Qianbao. If you encounter the two herbs, Long will definitely pick them and give them to you." Long Chong said.

"These two spiritual herbs are quite delicate and it is very troublesome to pick them. If you are not careful, they will lose their medicinal properties. If you encounter them, you can use the communication talisman to contact the two of us. We will pick them ourselves." Taoist Qianbao said.

"Okay." Long Chong nodded.

Taoist Qianbao took out twelve communication talismans and distributed them to everyone. Everyone also collected the Earth Core Fire Lotus and was very happy.

The matter of the Earth Core Fire Lotus was over, and everyone did not continue to travel together.

Huan Lingzi lost face and was exposed by Yuan Ming. He took Yun Jiuxiao and Bingxin and left first, and the others also dispersed.

Yuan Ming, Long Chong, Qiong Yun, and Wu Lu were about to leave when they were stopped by Taoist Qian Bao.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, the magma lake erupted earlier. We left first to protect ourselves. Please don't blame us. Fortunately, you are safe." Taoist Qian Bao smiled.

"Fellow Daoist Qian Bao, you are too serious. If we were in the same situation, I would do the same thing." Yuan Ming said.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, when you were picking fire lotus in the magma lake, did you see a blood shadow?" Fairy Jin Yun asked.

Taoist Qian Bao also looked over, with a scrutinizing look.

Yuan Ming suddenly realized that Taoist Qian Bao kept him to find out about Xue Ying and Hong Ling.

"Fairy Jin Yun, you mean the blood light that swallowed the fourth-level fire crocodile? I saw it too. It was terrible." Yuan Ming cursed Xue Ying and Hong Ling inwardly, but his face showed a solemn look, as if he was afraid.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan was also in the magma lake at that time. I wonder if you saw anything unusual?" Fairy Jinyun stared into Yuan Ming's eyes and continued to ask.
