"As expected!"
He was overjoyed and hurriedly moved to the corner.
"Xiao He, look where I am."
Xiao He, who was lost in her thoughts, got up when she heard Zhou Yang's voice. However, she found that she was alone in the room.
"Young Master … where … where did you go?"
"You really can't see me?"
Zhou Yang said happily. He was less than ten feet away from Xiao He, but he was standing in a corner where the candlelight was dimmer. Under normal circumstances, even a child would be able to discover his existence. After all, it was dim and not pitch-black.
Now, he basically understood that the so-called Phantom Star Soul was to fuse oneself with darkness, or to turn oneself into a shadow. In the dark night, even if there was light, as long as he hid in the shadows, no one would be able to see him.
"Update M (New U = Fastest) Z27 ● 0,3 & .7 & ◎ 5 & 9
Even if it was just a person's shadow, he could still hide.
This was the reason why no one had been able to kill the Specter even though he had the Fatal Flying Dagger.
"Although I don't have a Phantom Star Soul, I have the ability to hide in the darkness. This ability is called Dark Escape."
Dark Escape combined with the Fatal Flying Dagger would be his killer move in the future.
"Xiao He, remember not to tell anyone about what happened today, especially your experience in the grotto."
After appearing, Zhou Yang said seriously.
"Young Master, although Xiao He doesn't know what the Extreme Yin Body is, I don't care. I only hope that I can always accompany you. As long as you don't ask me to say it, Xiao He will always keep it in my heart."
Xiao He hugged the quilt and said firmly.
Zhou Yang nodded. The Extreme Yin Body was not a good thing for Xiao He. If it was spread out, it would only attract countless troubles and dangers. It was best to keep it a secret.
"Here are 500,000 star jades. In the future, if you need anything, you can buy it yourself."
Xiao He was startled. After hesitating for a while, she accepted it.
"Let's sleep here tonight. I need to meditate. My injuries are more serious."
After saying that, Zhou Yang began to regulate his breathing.
Xiao He looked at Zhou Yang who sat down quietly and couldn't help but smile. She had never thought that there would be someone in this world who would treat her so well except for her father.
This man gave her hope again after her father's death, and he didn't ask for anything in return.
As the night grew darker, Xiao He fell asleep after a while. Zhou Yang also entered into meditation. The whole world seemed to be quiet.
It wasn't until the next day that Zhou Yang woke up from his meditation when he heard the bustling sounds of conversation coming from outside the house.
"I didn't expect such a big thing to happen. That Poison King Zhao Si is so daring. He even dared to capture Zhou Shaoyu, who is ranked fourth on the Rising Star List …"
"Fortunately, Deacon Hao of Herb Town discovered it in time and rescued everyone. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
"You can't say that. If Liu Xing hadn't killed Zhao Si, Deacon Hao probably wouldn't have been able to save them."
Zhou Yang got up and quietly opened the window. He saw groups of three to five people gathered on the street, watching a group of people slowly walking towards the City Lord's Mansion.
This group was none other than Zhou Shaoyu and the others. At this moment, they looked a little disheveled, and every one of them had a strong murderous intent in their eyes.
They had always been proud, but they were all wiped out by the Poison King Zhao Si. This was a huge blow to them.
"Hao Sheng is here too."
Zhou Yang smiled faintly. He immediately left the inn and rushed towards the City Lord's Mansion.
The incident in Herb Town had obviously alarmed the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord of Border City, He Lanshan, personally opened the main gate of the City Lord's Mansion and welcomed Zhou Shaoyu and the others in. Xiao Lin also accompanied them.
When Zhou Yang arrived, the others had already left. Only one person was still outside the door. This person was the Young Princess, Tang Yuewu.
At this moment, Tang Yuewu had a worried look on her face. She kept looking at the road as if she was waiting for something.
"Are you waiting for me?"
Zhou Yang asked with a smile as he walked over from the other side.
"You … you're still alive …"
Tang Yuewu was stunned when she turned around. After coming to her senses, she said, "Who's waiting for you? I'm just here to enjoy the scenery."
"Oh, then I'm going in," Zhou Yang said as he walked towards the City Lord's Mansion.
"Hey, wait for me." Tang Yuewu immediately followed him and kept asking questions.
"They all said you were dead. How are you still alive? Did Liu Xing save you?"
"What does Liu Xing look like? Is he handsome?"
Zhou Yang pretended not to hear Tang Yuewu's questions. When they were outside the City Lord's Mansion's meeting hall, he gestured for Tang Yuewu to keep quiet.
Tang Yuewu nodded and eavesdropped with Zhou Yang.
"City Lord He, this is the whole story. If Zhou Yang hadn't suddenly made a move, I think I would've been able to see through Xu Fu's trick …" The voice came from Zhou Shaoyu.
"What is this?" He Lanshan, who was sitting at the top, frowned and asked.
"City Lord, have you found Zhou Yang's corpse?" Zhou Shaoyu asked.
"I haven't found it. After receiving the news from Deacon Hao last night, I sent people to Herb Town, but only found Zhao Si's headless corpse and some traces of a fight," He Lanshan said.
"That's right. If I'm not mistaken, Zhou Yang is probably in cahoots with Zhao Si. Otherwise, why would Zhao Si and Xu Fu take him away after locking us up?"
"That's right. I also think there's something fishy about this."
A moment later, Zhou Shaoyu, Li Moling, and even Ren Wuxing couldn't help but nod after hearing this. The rest of the people who had returned from Herb Town echoed loudly.
"Zhou Yang is really in cahoots with the Bloodthirst Group …" He Lanshan frowned.
"Father, I think this is true. We must inform General Wan as soon as possible, and then put a bounty on Zhou Yang like we did for the Bloodthirst Group," He Yunfeng stepped forward and said.
Put a bounty on Zhou Yang!
"If I'm really in cahoots with Zhao Si, then you won't have a chance to live."
The voice came from outside the hall, and everyone stood up.
"Zhou Yang, it's Zhou Yang, the traitor."
"Zhou Yang, you dare to come back?"
The crowd in the hall was agitated. Only Xiong Ziyi and a few others remained calm.
"Why wouldn't I dare to come back?"
Zhou Yang and Tang Yuewu walked into the hall and looked around. Finally, their eyes fell on Zhou Shaoyu.
"Zhou Shaoyu, you said that I colluded with the Bloodthirst Group to kill you. Then let me ask you, where did you get the antidote?" Zhou Yang asked with a smile.
"Hmph, my antidote was given to me by Deacon Hao of the Elixir Alliance," Zhou Shaoyu said proudly.
Zhou Yang nodded and looked at Deacon Hao, "Deacon Hao, may I ask where you got the elixir?"
Hao Sheng stood up and said with a smile, "During the Xu family's birthday celebration in Herb Town, I didn't go because I was on duty. At night, I suddenly heard the sound of fighting in the forest outside the town, so I hurried over and found Zhao Si's corpse and the antidote."
