"My condolences, fellow Daoists."
The girl in pink arrived beside Wu Xiangming and the other man and said, "Just Now, that person attacked us without asking for a reason and killed two of us. He might be someone from the fiend sects."
Wu Xiangming and the other man nodded bitterly.
"Sigh, it's all my fault."
The girl in pink had a sorrowful expression as she sighed gently. "If not for me, you two wouldn't have been buried here. That person from the fiend sects is so strong that I'm sure we're not a match for him. "
When he heard that, Wu Xiangming said hurriedly, "Yan 'er, it's not your fault."
The girl in pink pursed her red lips and a glint flashed through her eyes. As though she had made a decision, she said gently, "Brother Wu, you guys should leave! I've decided to head out alone. Don't follow me. If you guys get injured because of me, I'll … "
As she said that, the girl in pink sobbed pitifully with tears welling in her eyes.
At that moment, Su Zimo was almost moved by the girl in pink's heartfelt expression.
However, Su Zimo's eyes regained clarity the next moment and his expression was cold.
Wu Xiangming was a little flustered. He wanted to reach out and wipe away the girl in pink's tears but he seemed a little timid as he said hurriedly, "Don't cry, Yan 'er. Don't worry, I'll be by your side till the end!"
The other Southern Mountains Sect cultivator chimed in as well.
Yan Fei stood at the side, clearly touched as well. However, he looked at the girl in pink strangely with a hint of lust in the depths of his eyes.
"Yan 'er, listen to me,"
Wu Xiangming said in a deep voice, "Just Now, although that person's attacks are swift and decisive, he might not be a match for me in a head-on fight."
The girl in pink stopped sobbing and nodded, seemingly understanding.
Su Zimo lamented internally, "Although that person has lost his mind because of the girl in pink, he still has some brains and knows how to analyze the situation."
In Su Zimo's eyes, the 'corpse' Just Now was like the assassins recorded in history books who would flee immediately after missing their target.
Assassins might not be very strong, but their methods were superior in terms of camouflage, concealment, and appearing and disappearing unpredictably like shadows. Their comprehensive strength was terrifying and extremely difficult to deal with.
Of course, even though Wu Xiangming was aware of this, Su Zimo did not have high hopes for him.
Not to mention him, even Su Zimo could not guarantee that he would be able to escape unscathed from the assassin if he lost his spiritual sense.
That assassin was terrifying!
From the process of Just Now's attack and the various details, this person's true strength was also quite powerful, and his physical fitness was extremely strong!
Of course, Su Zimo, with his spiritual sense, was not afraid of this person.
If this person dared to appear again, Su Zimo would immediately kill him!
Such a person was too dangerous.
Perhaps sensing something, the assassin who had left earlier did not appear again.
Wu Xiangming and the other two escorted the girl in pink forward through the crack while Su Zimo followed behind. His eyes were like torches and his ears were twitching. Nothing could escape his notice.
This time round, it was clear that Wu Xiangming and the other two were more cautious and took every step with caution.
When they encountered the corpse again, the three of them did not head forward recklessly. Instead, they chose one of them to guard beside the girl in pink while the other two flanked her left and right. They closed in in a pincer formation and stabbed the corpse a few times.
Before long, they arrived at another fork in the road.
Wu Xiangming turned back to look at Su Zimo who had been following behind silently the entire time. For some reason, he felt frustrated and hollered, "Hey! Su something, you'd better stop following us. The sight of you makes me frustrated. "
In Wu Xiangming's eyes, Su Zimo was almost non-existent and he did not even remember the latter's name.
"That's right. That person has never helped us and is as timid as a mouse. He doesn't even dare to walk in front and is always following behind us!" Another Southern Mountains Sect cultivator complained as well.
Su Zimo did not reply and his gaze was calm with a hint of mockery.
Along the way, Su Zimo did not attack at all. Most of the time, he watched coldly from the sidelines and strolled leisurely.
There was no other reason other than the fact that there was no need for it.
In Wu Xiangming's eyes, Su Zimo had merely shouted for them to stop and shot two arrows.
The girl in pink was the only one who knew how powerful those two arrows were when Su Zimo shouted for them to stop!
That was because given the methods of the thousand-faced assassin, everyone present apart from her would have died if not for the fact that they were wary!
Standing at the fork in the road, Wu Xiangming looked at Su Zimo with a look of disdain and questioned, "Su something, tell me, what's the use of you, hmm?"
"Brother Wu, don't make things difficult for him," At the side, the girl in pink persuaded hurriedly.
"Humph!"
Harrumphing coldly, Wu Xiangming turned and walked towards the fork in the road on the right while mumbling viciously, "Bloody Misty Peak disciple? Seems like that's all there is to it!"
Right then, Su Zimo stood on the spot and his eyes flashed coldly, as though he sensed something.
"You're asking me what's the use of me, fu."
Suddenly, Su Zimo laughed and said leisurely, "Actually, my use is very simple. At the very least, I can remind some people that it's best not to step onto a path of no return."
"Stop trying to be mysterious and spouting nonsense!"
Wu Xiangming turned around and sneered, "Cut to the chase. There's no need to beat around the bush."
Su Zimo pointed to the fork in the road behind Wu Xiangming and said indifferently, "If I were you, I wouldn't take that path."
"Hahahaha!"
Wu Xiangming burst into laughter. "What a joke! Do I need the guidance of an early-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator like you to tell me which path I want to take? Are you even worthy? "
"Suit yourself," Su Zimo raised his brow.
Wu Xiangming retracted his smile and said coldly, "Su something, let me give you a piece of advice for a courageous cultivator like you. Go home and farm as soon as possible instead of coming out to embarrass yourself! You want to cultivate to become an immortal with that guts of yours? Dream on! "
"Fufu, you're right, Senior Brother Wu," Another Southern Mountains Sect cultivator agreed.
"Yan 'er, let's go! There's no need to listen to this lad's nonsense. With me, Wu Xiangming, around, even if there's an evil cultivator in front, he'll have to make way! "
As he said that, Wu Xiangming and the other Southern Mountains Sect cultivator entered the fork in the road.
The girl in pink hesitated and glanced at Su Zimo before following them.
Yan Fei glared at the girl in pink's voluptuous figure with a fiery gaze and followed closely behind.
Su Zimo watched as the four of them entered the fork in the road and did not follow them.
Due to the existence of the ancient spirit lock formation, everyone's storage bags could not be opened and they had already taken out the items they needed before entering.
Su Zimo chose the Cold Moon Saber, Sanguine Crystal Bow and ten arrows.
Standing on the spot, he removed the Sanguine Crystal Bow from his back and gripped three arrows in his hands. With a cold gaze, he muttered to himself, "In the end … a battle is unavoidable."
Su Zimo's hearing was shocking.
Earlier on, he could vaguely hear footsteps coming from the depths of the fork in the road – there were many people.
Furthermore, there was a fresh stench of blood coming from the fork in the road.
That group of people had ill intentions!
That was the reason why Su Zimo advised Wu Xiangming and the others not to take the fork in the road. Unfortunately, they did not listen.
