Chapter 138: Chapter 95: Gao Xuan, How Dare You (6k)

The mountains of Cyan Ox Ridge are vast and boundless, with steep cliffs that look as if they were cut by axes and knives, exuding a cold and severe aura.

Mist drifts like light gauze among the mountains, with occasional roaring sounds emanating from within.

Somewhere in the center, extensive damage can be seen, with many ancient trees standing charred all over. Around them, various pits and holes suggest an unimaginable battle took place here not long ago.

Bang!

A corpse fell from the sky, producing a dull sound that was particularly jarring amidst the silent mountains.

Furthermore, a masked figure appeared out of nowhere, standing atop a tree.

"Cyan Ox Stepping on Mist Shadow!"

At this moment, a middle-aged man leisurely walked out from the woods with his hands behind his back. He first glanced indifferently at the corpse on the ground, then slowly raised his head and spoke.

Gao Xuan then slowly removed his mask and said in a deep voice, "Moonlight on the Wilderness Ridge!"

The man immediately smiled, clasped his hands in greeting to Gao Xuan, and said, "You are too reckless, aren’t you afraid of being seen? You know, you are one of our Daoist Palace’s most important pawns, successfully inserted into the Taiqing Sect at great cost."

Immediately, he hurriedly flipped the cold and stiff corpse over, his eyes filled with excitement.

"Weren’t you saying it’s impossible? This is quite a surprise! Haha, great, great, Yuqing Peak’s Peak Master Tong Min has foiled our plans so many times over the years. I’ve been wanting to get rid of her. By the way, the Palace Master’s intention is..."

"The list!"

Before the man could finish his sentence, Gao Xuan coldly interrupted.

The man stood up, hesitating for a moment, then flicked his fingers, and a piece of paper shot out.

"This person’s credentials predate yours. He has been lurking around for many years but has never been activated. The original plan was for you to cooperate well with him..."

Pfff—

Before the man finished speaking, Tong Min, who everyone thought was dead, suddenly opened her eyes. A gray-gold long ribbon abruptly pierced through her abdomen.

The man reacted quickly, instantly unleashing spiritual power of the Divinity Transformation Realm, and retreated at high speed, barely avoiding a second attack from Tong Min.

Feeling the intense pain from his abdomen, he looked incredulously at Gao Xuan, who was still coldly watching from the treetop, and then glanced at Tong Min who was getting up from the ground. Without a word, he turned and ran.

"I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation later!"

Tong Min frowned, looking up at Gao Xuan in the tree and spoke, then quickly pursued.

Gao Xuan slowly unfolded the paper in his hand, and his pupils contracted upon seeing the name written on it.

He then looked at the figures ahead, one chasing, one fleeing, and lightly lifted his foot, instantly disappearing from where he stood...

Fine raindrops hit the thick trees, making a rustling sound, and the leaves became increasingly green under the wash of the rain.

A corpse lay in a pit, gradually being submerged by the rainwater.

At this moment, Tong Min was motionless, with Gao Xuan’s finger placed on her forehead.

Not long after, Tong Min’s body softened, and Gao Xuan timely supported her, then carried her on his shoulder and quickly left.

Soon after, he returned again, looking at the corpse in the water pit, he walked to the side, plucked a small red flower and tossed it onto the corpse.

"Next time, don’t trust others so easily!"

After speaking, Gao Xuan quickly cleaned up all traces around, then took out a Spirit Talisman and burned it, before leaving again.

After a long time, two figures hurriedly tore through the void and arrived.

They urgently inspected the corpse on the ground, their faces full of anger.

"Who is it, who on earth? A late-stage Divinity Transformation Realm expert just died like this!" One of them shouted furiously at the sky.

The other rapidly checked the wounds but couldn’t identify who made them.

"His divine soul is shattered, and his storage bag is missing. What do we do now?" The other person also said with a grim face.

The one roaring quickly transmitted the information back.

"Cang Lang has been lurking for years, he was one of our most important pawns. He was on a mission to assassinate Yuqing Peak’s Peak Master Tong Min, intending to create chaos within Taiqing Sect, causing panic, to facilitate our next plan."

"But his message said that once he succeeded, he couldn’t erase his own traces and feared suspicion, so we prepared to activate Night Owl, the list was brought over, this—"

Having sent the message, he was seething.

The other person said, "Now it’s a big trouble. According to Cang Lang’s urgent message, he saw fighting here before reaching the rendezvous point and left hastily for safety reasons."

"Forget about other things, Qu Shen was a late-stage Divinity Transformation expert, how did the opponent manage to kill him in a short time and leave no traces? He didn’t even have time to send a distress signal?"

They fell silent, then scattered to search for clues around.

But it was clearly all in vain.

Soon, one received a message and sighed, "The Palace Master orders us to rush to Taiqing Sect and bring Night Owl back. This pawn is wasted."

"What are we waiting for? Delay could cause changes, hurry up! Damn, who did this? It seems our Daoist Palace still hasn’t cleaned house thoroughly!"

They quickly collected Qu Shen’s corpse and hurried to Taiqing Sect.
