"Brother!"
Wu Yuyao's sorrowful voice resounded through the forest just as Captain Wu and the others were escaping.
Wu Ju was dead.
He had only managed to hang on until now because of his determination to protect Wu Yuyao. Now that Qing Xu had intervened and saved Wu Yuyao, his wish had been fulfilled. Now that he had let go of his last breath, he would naturally die.
Tsing Hui didn't say anything about this.
He wasn't good at comforting people.
Wu Yuyao cried by herself for half an hour before she finally accepted the reality in front of her.
She was still afraid of Tsing Hui and didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of him. She had to dig the ground herself to bury Wu Ju's body.
Tsing Hui saw her slow down and unsheathed the Green Cloud Sword. Sword Qi overflowed. In an instant, a hole with a diameter of two meters and a depth of one meter was formed.
"Thank you …"
Wu Yuyao thanked him softly and then pushed Wu Ju into the hole and piled up the soil.
By the time she used a piece of wood to erect the torched tombstone, two hours had already passed.
Seeing that Wu Yuyao was almost done, Tsing Hui asked, "What valuable things do you have on you?"
"Valuable things …"
Wu Yuyao was still immersed in grief, but out of fear of Tsing Hui, she didn't dare to not answer his question. After a while, she took out a sparkling gem and asked softly, "Is this what Prince Tsing Hui is talking about?"
"Yes, it is."
Tsing Hui felt the slight movement of the Chaos Temple in his mind and nodded slightly.
As he held the gem in his hand, the Chaos Temple's prompt sounded again.
"Discovered Dao Carrying Object, Dao Aura value two. Do you want to integrate it?"
This number surprised Tsing Hui.
Moreover …
This gem seemed to be separated from a whole body, and there seemed to be other parts …
Tsing Hui looked at Wu Yuyao, "Do you know the origin of this object?"
"This was something my father obtained by chance the last time he went out of the Desolate Cloud Mountain Range to pursue a spirit beast. Because of its gorgeous color, my father kept it and passed it to me in the end …"
When Wu Yuyao said this, she seemed to think of her father, Wu Zhenyuan, and her expression couldn't help but turn gloomy.
"Last time … did anyone know where these gems came from?"
"Following my father to the Desolate Cloud Mountain Range, there are twelve members of the First Brigade led by Captain Xuan You. If Prince Tsing Hui wants to find this item, he will have to find the other members of the First Brigade to lead the way."
"Where are they? Take me to them."
"Other than the captain and vice-captain of the first brigade, only three of the ten people are left. The remaining nine … have all died …"
At this point, Wu Yuyao looked at Tsing Hui in fear. Obviously, those nine people were killed by Tsing Hui.
"Of the remaining three, Uncle Ning Shan died two days ago to help the two of us break out of the encirclement. Uncle Huang Shang lost an arm and was killed by an enemy. Only Uncle Zhou Buwei saw that the situation was bad and escaped from the Lorraine Kingdom. Currently, I don't know where Uncle Zhou is …"
"His whereabouts are unknown?!"
Tsing Hui's brows furrowed.
This world was different from Earth. There was a network everywhere. Looking for a person was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, if they could use thousands of people to do a carpet search, they might be able to find Zhou Buwei's whereabouts. It was just a matter of time.
"Manpower … the Lorraine royal family …"
If Tsing Hui owed Nalan Fei a favor, he might be able to let the Lorraine royal family find Zhou Buwei's whereabouts. However, this way, there was the risk of being exposed.
"How's the relationship between Zhou Buwei and your father?"
"Uncle Zhou is loyal to my father. The members of the First Demon Hunter Team are all my father's confidants. Uncle Zhou escaped because he knew that he had no other choice."
"Good! Where's the nearest branch of the Demon Hunters Guild? "
"This place is only three hundred kilometers away from the Lorraine royal capital. The largest branch is naturally the Lorraine royal capital branch. However, two hundred kilometers ahead, at the foot of the Cloud Wilderness Mountain Range, there's a Hundred Desolation City. The city isn't big, but because it's backed by the Cloud Wilderness Mountain Range, our Demon Hunters Guild has stationed many powerhouses there. It can be considered one of the top five branches in the Lorraine Kingdom."
"To the Hundred Desolation City!"
Tsing Hui said and leaped onto the horse.
After a moment, he glanced at Wu Yuyao, who was in a sorry state because she had been fleeing for the past few days. He had no choice but to extend his hand. "Get on the horse."
Wu Yuyao bit her lips. Riding on the same horse as a stranger … This was something that she had never experienced before.
However, due to her fear of Tsing Hui, she did not dare to refuse. She could only extend her hand and let Tsing Hui pull her into his embrace.
"Sit tight."
Tsing Hui said and did not have any other thoughts.
There was a person living in his heart, and he had a promise to her. His promise to her had already filled his heart, and he would not give up any space for anyone else.
A distance of two hundred kilometers would take five to six hours for an ordinary horse, not to mention two people riding on it.
When night fell, Tsing Hui and Wu Yuyao appeared outside the Hundred Desolation City.
The Hundred Desolation City was similar to the Cloud Wilderness Mountain Range. It was a war fortress that defended against the attacks of the Ferocious Beasts in the Cloud Wilderness Mountain Range. It was built very tall and was guarded by an army.
Due to its proximity to the Desolate Cloud Mountain Range, most of the passersby in Hundred Desolation City were Martial Artists. Even if there were some ordinary residents who weren't Martial Artists, they more or less had some foundation in cultivation, causing the people here to be swift and fierce, and powerhouses to emerge in an endless stream.
"Prince Tsing Hui, may I know why we came to the Hundred Desolation City?"
"Zhou Buwei is being hunted down, so he must be hiding very well and will not show up easily. However, once the Demon Hunters Guild stops persecuting you, and the news that you are in the Hundred Desolation City spreads, he will take the initiative to come to you."
Tsing Hui said.
"But … Mister Qing Xu, if you're here too, the people of the Union of Demon Hunters won't let you go easily once they learn about your whereabouts."
"I understand."
Tsing Hui said.
Although the Demon Hunters' Union had many powerhouses, Nalan Fei probably wouldn't just stand by and watch if they really didn't give up. A powerhouse who had cultivated Qi into Aura with a bright future, anyone who wanted to offend him would have to think twice.
Furthermore, the people who stood at the pinnacle of the Demon Hunters Guild were only at Immortal-Level Two. With the Green Firmament Sword, he was confident that he would not be weaker than any of the Immortal-Level Two powerhouses. Other than the Green Firmament Sword, he also had a fourth-order flying sword. With this sword, he could advance and retreat as he pleased, coming and going as he pleased.
This method was somewhat dangerous, and he needed to owe Nalan Fei a favor and take advantage of her power to act.
However, it was the best method he could think of at the moment.
"It seems that I have to write a letter to Nalan Fei."
Tsing Hui thought to himself, but he had already arrived in front of the Demon Hunters Guild.
"That is …"
When the two guards of the Demon Hunters Guild saw Wu Yu Yao, their eyes lit up slightly. Then one of them winked and immediately sent someone to report. The other person quickly greeted with a smile, "Miss, you're back? How did Miss become like this? Please come in. "
Tsing Hui glanced at the guard and did not speak. He followed Wu Yuyao into the Demon Hunters Guild.
Not long after they stepped into the Demon Hunters Guild, a group of dozens of people quickly surrounded them. Then, a man with the cultivation of the Blood Transformation Realm laughed out loud, "Hahaha, I can wear out iron shoes in a fruitless search, only to find it without any effort. I didn't think that Young Master Long Quan's reward would be mine in the end …"
"President Tong Fei."
Wu Yuyao looked at the man who had obviously turned to the new president, and her eyes dimmed slightly.
In the past, when her father was still alive, these people were all courteous to her and doted on her. But today, people were gone, and the tea was cold. This made her truly see through the fickleness of human nature.
"Haha, since Young Miss Yu Yao has delivered herself to me, I presume you've thought it through. I, Tong Fei, will not treat you unfairly. Before Young Master Long Quan sends people to take you away, I'll definitely provide you with good food and drink until …"
Tong Fei laughed loudly, his face full of pride.
However, before he finished laughing, he glanced at Tsing Hui from the corner of his eyes. Suddenly, as if his neck was suddenly grabbed, his laughter stopped abruptly …
"Qing … Prince Tsing Hui!?"
