"We owed you a favor first, and now that we've returned it, we won't steal or rob in the future. You guys better be careful. Goodbye!"
The moment he finished speaking, the black-robed youth turned around and left with an arrogant smile. His gaze did not linger on Wu Que and Gu Xinyan.
"Brother, you seem to be injured. Do you want to come with us? Those people might come looking for you, and we might be able to take care of each other if we go together."
Du Shaofu spoke as he looked at the black-robed youth. Using his Mental Energy, Du Shaofu discovered that the profound energy within the black-robed youth's body was in a mess. There was something wrong with him.
"No, their target is you guys. It will be more dangerous if I stay with you guys."
The black-robed youth paused in his steps as he looked at Du Shaofu. Then, his gaze landed on Du Xiaoyao, who was on Du Shaofu's shoulder.
"That's true. You might be in more danger if you stay with us. Then be careful. We owe you a favor now. If you need any help in the future, you can find us at Tianwu Academy. My name is Du Shaofu, "Du Shaofu said straightforwardly. He felt that this black-robed youth's temper was quite compatible with his.
"Ye Piaoling."
The black-robed youth nodded slightly. Profound energy surged beneath his feet as he pushed off the ground. His figure soared into the air, and after a few flashes, he disappeared into the night sky.
"This person is very strong. I wonder where he came from," Li Yuxiao said.
Many cracks had appeared on his dark red robe, and his face was pale. It was obvious that he had used up most of his energy.
As the black-robed youth called Ye Piaoling left, Gu Xinyan's gaze landed on Du Shaofu and Du Xiaoyao, who was on his shoulder. However, she only glanced at them briefly before saying to the people around her, "Let's stay here for now. This place should be safe for now. The general and Ghost Child are also inside, but their condition isn't too good. They're both heavily injured!"
"The second on the Martial Ranking, Gu Xinyan, is quite pretty."
Du Shaofu looked at Gu Xinyan, sizing her up without any hesitation. Gu Xinyan was also a martial artist and talisman cultivator, and her strength was terrifying. Tianwu Academy was truly extraordinary. Those who ranked at the top of the Martial Ranking were all powerful, especially the top five....
. "Do you think Junior Xinyan is very pretty? Why are you looking at her like that? Little pervert, I'll tell Youruo," Ouyang Shuang's voice't, Du Shaofu's voice...
..... Shuang Shuang Lucas' 'Du Shaofu, Xiaoyao Luo's.... "Du Shaofu Du Shaofu's voice, Du Shaofu.
"Du Shaofu, you're shameless!"
Hearing this, Ouyang Shuang immediately glared at Du Shaofu and shouted. However, Du Shaofu had already taken a step forward and distanced himself from her. When she saw the surrounding people looking at her in confusion, Ouyang Shuang could only stomp her feet and give up. However, her gaze was filled with the desire to skin Du Shaofu alive.
"Why do you like looking at their breasts? That Gu Xinyan also has a talisman weapon on her body. I really want to eat it."
Du Xiaoyao whispered into Du Shaofu's ear. She really didn't know what could be more attractive than talisman weapons, talisman weapons, and spiritual herbs.
Du Shaofu rolled his eyes at Du Xiaoyao and said, "Nonsense, I didn't look at it on purpose. It's just that it's very obvious."
After a while, after walking through a few alleys, Du Shaofu arrived at a quiet courtyard. He saw the first ranked general on the Martial Ranking, "No Touch the Mountains and Rivers", and "Nine Nether Too Young", Ghost Child.
The general looked to be around twenty-one or twenty-two years old. His facial features were clear and deep, and his skin was slightly tanned. When one looked at him, one would feel as if he could dominate the sky and suppress the mountains and rivers.
What surprised Du Shaofu was that this general was the extraordinary young man he had met at the fifth level of the Combat Realm.
As for Nine Nether Too Young and Ghost Child's aura, Du Shaofu felt as if he was truly unapproachable. He wore a black robe that was as black as ink. However, his handsome face had a hint of wanton and unrestrained aura, which made him less approachable. However, there was still a faint sense of sharpness.
"I didn't expect you to come as well. I just heard that you broke a new record at the fifth level of the Combat Realm. You are indeed powerful."
In the small hall, the general nodded slightly at the crowd. However, when he saw Du Shaofu, he was a little surprised. At this moment, his face was pale and his robe was torn. It seemed like he had just experienced a fierce battle.
"Breaking a new record? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have broken it."
When the record was mentioned, Du Shaofu thought of the eight million points he had. He didn't feel good.
"So you're Du Shaofu. I heard that you beat up the people of the Divine Light Court. Not bad, you deserved it."
Ghost Child looked at Du Shaofu and said with a gentle voice. His gaze then fell on Du Xiaoyao's shoulder. He was curious. His face was as pale as the general's, and there was some blood at the corner of his mouth.
"You're injured. Is it serious?"
Princess Netherworld Wu Que came to Ghost Child's side. She took out a soft handkerchief and gently wiped the blood from the corner of Ghost Child's mouth. She forced a few healing pills into Ghost Child's mouth. Her expression became even more charming. It was obvious that the relationship between the two of them was not ordinary. People could only envy them.
"It's alright. We managed to survive. Ghost Claw's cultivation base had a breakthrough. Both the general and I had to use our trump cards to escape. We almost couldn't make it back," Ghost Child said with a serious look in his eyes.
"You found Ghost Claw?" Wu Que was surprised.
"Ghost Claw seems to know our whereabouts. He wanted to kill us." Ghost Child said.
"It seems like tonight's events are not normal. You were intercepted by the Ghost Claw, and we were intercepted by those mysterious people. This seems to be a plan that was prepared long ago." Guo Shaofeng said, he felt that things were very complicated, as if everything had been planned by someone.
"Our whereabouts should be under someone's control. Ghost Claw was already prepared and knew that we would come." Li Yuxiao said. There was a faint evil aura around him.
Hearing Li Yuxiao's words, everyone in the hall fell into silence.
Everyone present was currently ranked at the top of the Martial Ranking, especially the top five of the Martial Ranking. However, they were nearly wiped out in one fell swoop tonight. Everyone present was not stupid and could naturally figure out the reason behind this.
"Other than you guys, is there anyone else who knows about this place?"
Du Shaofu suddenly asked the general, Gu Xinyan, and the rest. Not many people knew that he had come to Dark City from Tianwu Academy. However, that mysterious black-clothed man knew his identity. Du Shaofu couldn't help but suspect that those mysterious people had spies in Tianwu Academy.
If someone else knew about this place, Du Shaofu was worried that it would be like the Four Seas Inn. Perhaps it would also be razed to the ground.
If they were struck by over a hundred Scarlet Astral Heavenly Lightning Bullets again, they wouldn't be as lucky as before. If they were struck by over a hundred Scarlet Astral Heavenly Lightning Bullets without any warning, an ordinary Martial Lord wouldn't be able to escape unscathed.
"This is a secret location of our Tianwu Academy in Darkness City. Initially, we intended to stay here, but due to the distance from the auction, we decided to stay at the Four Seas Tavern instead. There shouldn't be any outsiders who know about it," Guo Shaofeng said.
"Didn't people know about it at the Number Four Inn?" Du Shaofu asked.
"Let's go. We will leave the city immediately. Let's leave Dark City first!"
Hearing Su Yu's words, the general suddenly said with a grave expression.
"Sou sou..."
In a short moment, many figures left in the night. In a few flashes, they disappeared from the sky.
Dawn quietly caught up with the night and the curtain of night began to fade. A gray ray of light pierced through the hazy brown curtain of night. Unknowingly, it was already daybreak.
Under the hazy morning light, over a dozen figures flashed out from the forest outside Dark City and landed on a mountain peak. They were Du Shaofu, the general, Gu Xinyan, and the rest.
When the figures landed, a jade strip in the general's hand suddenly emitted a rune light before shattering.
"We were indeed discovered."
Looking at the shattered jade strip in his hand, the general's expression turned grave. When he left the courtyard, he had specially set up some small traps so that he would be able to detect anyone approaching. He didn't expect that they would really be discovered.
Seeing the situation, everyone's expression changed. If they hadn't left, there would be another fierce battle. The consequences would be even more severe than before.
Wu Que looked at Du Shaofu and asked doubtfully, "How did you know that it wasn't safe?"
Du Shaofu's clear eyes narrowed as he replied, "If I'm not wrong, Tianwu Academy has probably been monitored by those people. Naturally, they would know where we are."
"The academy had just obtained the Profound Spirit Heavenspan Vine and it was immediately snatched away. Ghost Claw broke through the restriction. Someone must have secretly helped and leaked the news. Ghost Child and I were ambushed, and you were surrounded in the Four Seas Inn. Even your final resting place was discovered. I'm afraid that the academy isn't being monitored. Instead, there's a traitor who leaked the information. "The general placed one hand behind his back and crushed the jade slip in his hand into powder, scattering it on the ground.
"Ghost Claw openly auctioned the Profound Spirit Heavenspan Vine in Dark City and we were ambushed. The strength of those people isn't ordinary. Their plan seems to be targeting Tianwu Academy. I suspect that someone is targeting Tianwu Academy. We have to inform the academy about this," Gu Xinyan said as ripples flickered in her beautiful eyes.
"There's not much time left. The auction for the Mysterious Spirit Heavenly Vine will begin in two days. If the Mysterious Spirit Heavenly Vine is successfully auctioned off and the Ghost Claw disappears, then it will be even more difficult to find him. If the Ghost Claw and the others are really here to deal with us, then they won't give up so easily. They will definitely find us again. We're all injured, so let's heal first. We'll think about what to do next."
