Chapter 903: Chapter 903: The Remnants of Su Old Demon
Old He smiled faintly and replied, “? Of course, I’m soone from one of the forces that obtained a piece of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map.”
He stopped there, not making it clear.
Grandma Kui’s brow furrowed deeply. Back then, Su Old Demon divided the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map into eight pieces. Apart from the Overlord Comrce getting two pieces, the other forces each got one piece, aning seven forces obtained it.
Excluding their Sacred Canggu Peak and Overlord Comrce, there were still five forces left.
Old He’s ambiguous answer left Grandma Kui unable to determine which force he belonged to.
“My goal is the sa as yours, to find that hidden figure in Minglong Village and have him decipher and deduce our piece of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map.”
“I thought the one-ard boy from Overlord Comrce was the disciple of that hidden figure.”
“It turns out we were all wrong.”
Old He sighed lightly at this point.
In fact, he was not part of any force that obtained a piece of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map.
He had just gotten too excited after seeing Sikong Jing’s Soldier Killing Chess which contained the aura of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map, leading to him impulsively striking Yang Li and the others who were making a ruckus.
As a result, Grandma Kui had her eyes on him, and everything he said was to redy the impulsiveness earlier.
Grandma Kui stared at him intently, but Old He remained composed. Eventually, she smirked slightly and said, “Farewell.”
With that said, she flashed away and disappeared.
But Old He hadn’t left yet. After a while, he laughed heartily and said, “Grandma Kui, how long are you going to keep watching ? Do you want to team up with to find that hidden figure?”
The surroundings remained silent, and only after an elderly cold snort did Grandma Kui completely vanish from the area.
Since she had been discovered, staying further wouldn’t yield Old He’s true identity.
A dozen breaths later, two figures quietly erged, none other than the chubby old man and Old Xiu.
The three of them exchanged glances several tis by the lakeside before all letting out long sighs.
“Although he isn’t our leader’s inheritor, he barely counts as one,” the chubby old man said helplessly.
They had learned from Yang Li that Sikong Jing, after seeing Su Old Demon strengthen the sword array, had comprehended so aspects of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map’s illusion, barely qualifying him as…
The leader they referred to was, of course, Su Old Demon.
Old Xiu, the hidden figure Grandma Kui sought, was once a confidant under Su Old Demon and had cultivated Su Old Demon’s Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map, becoming famous for it.
Decades ago, Su Old Demon was suppressed by terrifying Holy Martial Stage demon beasts, and they were massacred by countless forces.
At that ti, Su Old Demon’s subordinates were almost completely slaughtered, and even Su Old Demon didn’t know a group had survived. They were the three elders now, along with so remaining soldiers.
Upon hearing Su Old Demon recently broke free from the Holy Martial Stage demon beast’s suppression and ca to the East Plain, they hurried over.
But by the ti they arrived, it was already too late…
They had gone to the Canglong Small Domain earlier and witnessed the terrifying sword array left by their leader.
But none of them were below the Spirit Martial Stage, so they couldn’t enter!
In the end, they had to send others inside and discovered the scene of Su Old Demon’s sword array tomb, where he perished with Lady Ye Wuyan in his arms. Their leader had left them forever.
The three of them were reluctant to leave and chose to stay in Minglong Village, wanting to remain by their leader’s side.
After a long silence, the chubby old man suddenly said, “We should leave Minglong Village too. How did the Sacred Canggu Peak know about us? We can’t stay, or more forces will co looking for Old Xiu.”
Seven forces obtained one corner of the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map, and they all wanted Old Xiu to deduce the complete Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map.
Staying here would an huge trouble.
They had no idea if only the Sacred Canggu Peak knew about Old Xiu or if other forces had found out too.
Moreover, Old Xiu still carried untreated wounds from decades ago, constantly at risk.
“Where can we go?” Old He asked, eyes filled with confusion.
They were subordinates of Su Old Demon, and with their leader gone, they were like rootless driftwood.
Just then, Old Xiu rasped, “Chubby Old Man, go to Willow Leaf City where Willow Leaf Saint Manor is located. I just received clear news that our leader’s son is alive and has been taken by the Willow Leaf Saint Manor.”
As soon as he said this, the chubby old man and Old He were shocked to the core, eyes widening.
“Old Xiu, is what you say true?” the chubby old man asked excitedly.
Old Xiu smiled and nodded, “Of course it’s true. I always had people infiltrating the Willow Leaf Saint Manor. To obtain our leader’s Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map, the people of Willow Leaf Saint Manor captured our leader’s son and granddaughter, forcing him to show himself.”
Then Old Xiu shared the information he had gathered…
Old He and the chubby old man clenched their fists tightly, with the latter cursing vehently, “The Willow Leaf Saint Manor has always been so shaless.”
Old He asked, “Why would the Willow Leaf Saint Manor keep our leader’s descendants alive?”
Logically, they would be disposed of once no longer useful. The Willow Leaf Saint Manor has never been so kind.
To this, Old Xiu squinted his eyes and replied, “Because our leader’s granddaughter is a Sixth Grade Jade Leaf Battle Body, so chubby old man, you must protect our leader’s descendants in secret on this trip. They must not be hard.”
“Otherwise, we would be shad before our leader’s spirit above.”
At this point, Old Xiu’s old tears flowed down.
anwhile, the chubby old man trembled violently all over, nodding heavily in agreent.
“Old Xiu, what about the two of us?” Old He asked.
Old Xiu looked toward the direction of East Plain Overlord Comrce and said, “We will go to Hanluan City in the east and wait for Sikong Jing.”
Open mouth, Old He and the chubby old man were full of confusion, not understanding Old Xiu’s intentions…
Sikong Jing had already proven he wasn’t their leader’s inheritor.
“We have built a new force over the decades and need a new leader.”
“This Sikong Jing has a strong talent in Soldier Killing Arrays and a partial understanding and insight into the Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map.”
“If his character is decent, coupled with further testing of his talent, I will take him as a disciple.”
Upon hearing this, the two elders imdiately understood, their minds flashing with the various performances of Sikong Jing, indeed he seed a good choice.
“I’m just afraid his Martial Arts Talent is weak. I didn’t sense he was a War Body,” Old He frowned.
However, Old Xiu smiled calmly and said, “Was our leader a War Body? Are we War Bodies? Do we need War Bodies?”
Three rhetorical questions sent a slight tremor through the two, and they said no more.
…
On the other side, Grandma Kui arrived at an inn within Minglong Village, finding a little girl and explaining everything she heard from Yang Li, finally saying, “Holy Daughter, this is the situation about Sikong Jing.”
“So ordinary?” Tie Ti’er lifted her fine eyebrows, full of surprise.
Grandma Kui inwardly smiled bitterly; he was not just ordinary. This background was utterly rotten. Aside from Su Old Demon’s sword array standing in his hotown’s Small Domain, it was utterly insignificant.
