Shi Feng naturally understood what Yue Shaochong ant by the important news he spoke of.
Previously in the forest, that "dog couple" ntioned by Yue Shaochong had talked about an ancient relic map and a key.
"Little Shi Feng, we must find the White-haired Poisonous Woman at all costs. We can’t let anyone else beat us to it!" Yue Shaochong spoke again, addressing Shi Feng.
The key and map to the ancient relic! It was that sa couple who had pushed off the cliff years ago and then shared the secrets of that ancient tomb. Now, at such a young age, they both stepped into the Martial Venerable Realm, becoming figures like geniuses.
If... If I could find the White-haired Poisonous Woman, kill her, and get my hands on the key and map, then... perhaps when I find the ancient relic, maybe... maybe I could achieve even greater heights!
By that ti, this grudge of mine!
Yue Shaochong beca agitated just thinking about the ancient relic and then rembered the grudge from years past full of hatred.
"Wushuang, oh Wushuang, where are you, you poor girl?" Shi Feng murmured softly to himself as he followed Yue Shaochong in flight.
Now, the Dark Corpse Army’s search was expanding in all directions, but still, no trace had been found.
...
Beiyuan City, yesterday!
In a Beiyuan City antique market, the Young City Lord, Yuann Tong, happened upon a treasure map and a mysterious key. Being ostentatious by nature and considering himself high and above as the Young City Lord of Beiyuan, he believed no one would dare cross him.
Thus, Yuann Tong laughed heartily, wanting everyone to know his prowess, proudly boasting to the people around that he had obtained the map and key to an ancient relic.
This attracted sidelong glances from those around him. Naturally, it also drew several greedy gazes hidden among the crowd.
While Yuann Tong was sweeping his gaze over the crowd with arrogance, he suddenly noticed a woman with snow-white hair and dressed in white. The mont he saw her, his mind ran wild with indecent thoughts.
Imdiately, Yuann Tong disregarded the surrounding crowd, walked over, arms spread wide, attempting to embrace the woman. However, he hadn’t anticipated that before he could get close, he would let out a painful howl, with rot appearing on his face and then rapidly spreading to his entire body.
At the sa ti, the twelve guards behind Yuann Tong quickly suffered the sa fate, screaming in agony as their faces rotted and the decay spread rapidly throughout their bodies!
Ultimately, that generation’s Young City Lord of Beiyuan City and his twelve Martial King Realm guards rotted to death.
The white-haired sinister woman casually took the map and key still in Yuann Tong’s hand and vanished from the antique market in a space-breaking mont. Many people witnessed her via a space-breaking departure from Beiyuan City!
The murder of Beiyuan’s Young City Lord by the White-haired Poisonous Woman soon caused a sensation throughout the city. The City Lord then issued a bounty of ten million Primordial Stones. Suddenly, Beiyuan City was in an uproar, so driven by the ten million Primordial Stones, others by the news of the ancient relic map and key, and all set out in search of the ancient relic.
Seeking the White-haired Poisonous Woman!
...
Shi Feng continued to follow the "experienced" Yue Shaochong and kept searching for information about the White-haired Poisonous Woman.
And whatever his thoughts, Yue Shaochong would seriously analyze them for Shi Feng to hear.
At this mont, the two were faced with a graveyard, as far as the eye could see, it was packed with tombstones!
Pointing to the graveyard, Yue Shaochong analyzed for Shi Feng, "Places like this are likely hideouts for the White-haired Poisonous Woman."
"Oh? How so?" Shi Feng questioned Yue Shaochong.
"Man’s intuition!" Yue Shaochong replied, then continued to explain to Shi Feng, "When walking in the world, sotis, intuition is very important! It can even save your life. Stay close and keep your eyes peeled as you search."
"Oh!" Shi Feng acknowledged Yue Shaochong and then, under his lead, the two began searching above the graveyard, Yue Shaochong scanning ticulously while Shi Feng released his Soul Power, sensing in all directions.
"See, my intuition wasn’t wrong, was it!" Just at that mont, Yue Shaochong suddenly said to Shi Feng, pointing towards a new-looking, uneven hole behind a tombstone that plunged deeply into the unknown.
However, it was also quite possible that so demon beast had dug it out.
"Let’s go in and have a look! Sa warning, be careful, and don’t stray too far from ," Yue Shaochong instructed Shi Feng once more, and instantly his figure moved, diving down into the hole.
Shi Feng thought for a mont and then quickly followed suit, descending after him. But just as Yue Shaochong was about to enter the hole, suddenly, a Sword Qi streaked down from the sky like a shooting star.
Yue Shaochong sensed the energy fluctuations from above, imdiately looked up, and when he saw the Sword Qi thrusting towards him, his face changed drastically with terror, revealing a shocked expression. In an instant, the Sword Qi nearly slashed across Yue Shaochong’s neck.
Beneath this sword, Yue Shaochong would certainly have beco a new corpse in the graveyard!
"It’s over!" Under the formidable force of the Sword Qi, Yue Shaochong, in that mont, even began to accept his impending death.
But just then, Shi Feng, right behind Yue Shaochong, ford his right hand into a claw, and with a violent inhale, a powerful force pulled Yue Shaochong’s figure slightly backwards, narrowly and perilously avoiding the Sword Qi at his neck.
"Ah!" By the ti Yue Shaochong ca to his senses, he opened his mouth wide, watching the Sword Qi shoot into the dark, deep hole, slowly disappearing from his line of sight.
Looking at the vanishing Sword Qi, Yue Shaochong couldn’t help but touch his own neck, reflecting on the mont his life almost ended to the sudden attack.
Lucky! How fortunate he was to have escaped unconsciously.
However, at that mont, a young voice of surprise echoed from the sky, "Eh? So trash at the Three-star Martial Ancestor Realm actually avoided my attack? But no matter, failing to kill him just ans another dog to clear the way for ."
When Yue Shaochong heard that voice, he looked up furiously, but his face changed dramatically again as he recognized the figure above him and exclaid in astonishnt, "The genius of the Shaoyang Sword Sect, Yang Xin!"
At this mont, hovering above Shi Feng and Yue Shaochong, was a young man dressed in a black robe, appearing to be just seventeen or eighteen years old. Hearing Yue Shaochong’s words, his surprised expression faded, replaced by an arrogant deanor as he looked down at the two below.
