Han Rong realized that even if he resisted and tried to conceal it, he couldn't protect the Nine-Colored Celestial Crystal Mountain.
Moreover, the entire Snow Spirit Sect would surely be wiped out by the Sea Race.
Rather than letting that happen, it would be better to voluntarily surrender the treasure and strike a good deal.
That way, there might still be a glimmer of hope to survive...
"Hmm? Supreme Treasure?"
"Yes, we've recently acquired a Nine-Colored Celestial Crystal Mountain and were planning to present it to you. We didn't expect you to arrive; isn't it a perfect coincidence?"
Han Rong quickly said, "Who would have thought that the Jisheng Sect also got wind of it and even tried to stop us."
"So we had no choice but to kill them..."
"Everything we've done is to present a treasure to the Sea Race!"
His explanation made Guan Ao frown deeply.
He was indeed planning to annihilate the Snow Spirit Sect as well.
