Follow in the Dark
However, these were traces from a month ago. Ye Fei couldn't be sure of Zhao Yu's current situation. The only thing he could do was to follow the blood lines on the compass and continue deeper.
Another ten days passed like this. Just as Ye Fei entered the deepest part of the canyon, he suddenly heard the roar of a beast in the distance. However, it quickly disappeared.
"There's someone. Zhao Yu or the three strongest Kings. They must be over there!" Ye Fei's spirit was roused as he hurriedly rushed toward the small forest.
… …
Beside a cave in the small forest, a bonfire was blazing. The owner of the cave, a Heaven Ascension Realm demonic bear, was being skinned by two people.
"Hahaha, Clear Wind King, we're in for a treat this time. The demonic bear's flesh is a great supplement. After eating it, we won't even need spirit stones to recover our True Yuan!"
The one who spoke was a youth in white clothes. His body was as light as a swallow, his legs were long and his arms were short. He looked somewhat comical. However, Ye Fei didn't dare to lower his guard.
He knew that the two people in the small forest should be the strongest Kings under the West Sword Emperor. Their strength should be on par with his.
It was also because of this reason that Ye Fei decisively gave up on the idea of assassinating them. "Strongest Kings aren't that easy to deal with. Before I find Zhao Yu, I must not act rashly and alert them!"
After secretly making up his mind, Ye Fei carefully concealed his aura and continued approaching the cave. Since it was night time and there were traces of the battle between the two people and the demonic bear, Ye Fei smoothly climbed to the back of a large bluestone.
A thousand meters away from him, the two strongest Kings were talking. At this time, Ye Fei could clearly see the appearance of the Clear Wind King. This person had an extraordinary temperament, and there was a golden dragon Qi revolving behind him.
"Dragon Qi, this person actually has the appearance of an emperor!" Ye Fei was very shocked. If such a person was placed in a large empire, he would definitely become the emperor of a country in the future.
In fact, the Light Wind King's secular identity was the Crown Prince of the Light Wind Empire, a first-class empire in the Central Province. However, in the Central Province, martial arts were revered. Even the Emperor of an empire was inferior to an ordinary Martial Emperor.
The Crown Prince of the Light Wind Kingdom resolutely gave up the throne and focused on martial arts. Because he had the Son of Heaven's Aspect, he was born with the ability to condense the nation's fate and dragon qi. Thus, Crown Prince Light Wind's cultivation path was very smooth. In a short ten years, he went from a Crown Prince to a Strongest King. After entering the Buried Gods Ground, he chose to follow the West Sword Emperor and became a capable subordinate of the West Sword Emperor.
Secretly eavesdropping on their conversation, Ye Fei quickly figured out the identity of the young man with long legs and short hands. This person was called Blood Killing King.
He wasn't born with short arms. He had once offended an enemy, and that person had purposely chopped off both of his arms. That person had then reattached his severed arms as a form of humiliation. However, the enemy did not expect that the Blood Kill King would benefit from the disaster and awaken a special bloodline.
Although the bloodline grade wasn't high, it allowed the Blood Kill King to break through to the Strongest King realm in a dozen years.
However, due to the humiliation of having his arms severed, the Blood Kill King's temperament had become twisted. Ye Fei discovered a large number of Vicious Beasts being cruelly killed along the way.
"Strange. Didn't the West Sword Emperor send three subordinates to kill Zhao Yu? Why are there only two people here?" Ye Fei suddenly felt that something was strange.
Just as he was pondering, a black-clothed arrogant young man silently stood on top of the bluestone he was hiding on.
Ye Fei's heart shook. He thought that he had been discovered. Just as he was considering whether he should flee or fight, the Crown Prince of the Light Wind Kingdom discovered the black-clothed young man. He immediately stood up and greeted, "Ximen Zun, you're finally back. How was it? Did you find any clues about that woman?"
"So the person standing above me is called Ximen Zun. Coincidentally, I know that the West Sword Emperor's name is Ximen Zhi. Adding these two names together, wouldn't it be Ximen Zhi?"
Ye Fei was secretly shocked. He was curious about the relationship between Ximen Zun and the West Sword Emperor. Ximen Zun didn't discover that Ye Fei was hiding under the bluestone.
This was also related to his lack of experience. Ximen Zun had been cultivating in his family since young. He only walked out of his family when the Heaven and Earth Supreme ranking competition started.
Moreover, the Crown Prince of the Light Wind Kingdom and the Blood Kill King were guarding this place. Outside the canyon, there were more than ten young Kings watching. Who would be so daring as to barge in and eavesdrop on their conversation?
Ximen Zun's feet lightly tapped on the bluestone. Saber and sword lights suddenly appeared under his feet. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the bonfire in the distance.
Ye Fei's heart shook again. "Saber and sword in one body! This Ximen Zun is actually the same as Senior Brother Jing Wushou. They both have the unique physique of a saber and sword in one body! This means that this person is an absolute genius who cultivates the sword dao and saber dao! The Central Region is indeed a land of outstanding heroes. Geniuses are everywhere! "
Thinking about Jing Wushou and the others who were still cultivating in the Chaotic Ocean and his brother Luo Xi, who was still out at sea, Ye Fei couldn't help but sigh.
Compared to the Central Region, the northern region was simply too weak.
"Ximen Zun, how was it? Did you find out the whereabouts of that woman?" Seeing Ximen Zun come over, even the Blood Kill King with a twisted personality quickly stood up.
This was out of respect for Ximen Zun's strength. At the same time, it was also out of respect for Ximen Zun's identity. After all, Ximen Zun's elder brother was the West Sword Emperor.
Facing the Blood Kill King and the Crown Prince of the Light Wind Kingdom, Ximen Zun's expression was as cold and arrogant as before. He slightly shook his head and said, "That woman is extraordinary. I followed her for fifteen kilometers and exhausted all my strength, but I still couldn't stop her from leaving!"
"Why should we stop her? If it were up to me, we should just kill her the next time we see her! I really don't understand why the Lord Sword Emperor wants us to capture her alive. Could it be that he saw her beauty? "The Blood Kill King's eyes faintly revealed an ominous glint.
Similarly, Ye Fei revealed an ominous glint. One had to know that although Zhao Yu looked pretty, her nature was extremely savage. Even so, the West Sword Emperor still dared to lay his hands on her.
"Very well, West Sword Emperor. We will settle this score sooner or later!" Ye Fei suddenly felt a little angry.
Ximen Zun did not reply to the Blood Kill King's suggestion. Instead, he minded his own business and sat down to eat the roasted demonic bear meat.
The Crown Prince of the Light Wind Kingdom quickly stopped the Blood Kill King and said in a deep voice, "Blood Kill King, we can't be rash. She has a treasure that can activate her special bloodline! If we have the intention to kill her, she will be driven into a corner and destroy the treasure. That will be our greatest loss! "
"That's right! My elder brother has his own reasons for not killing her. Whether it's because he's worried about the treasure or because he has his eyes on her, it's not something we should worry about. We only have one thing to do, and that is to capture her within ten days and take back the Blood Spiritual Fruit! "Ximen Zun finally spoke. His face was brimming with confidence.
The Blood Kill King and the Crown Prince of the Light Wind Kingdom looked at Ximen Zun in surprise. "Ximen Zun, do you have the confidence to deal with her?"
"Of course, the Blood Spiritual Fruit alone won't be able to activate her special bloodline. We still need the Immortal Crystal in our hands! Ten days later, I will personally lay down a killing array and wait for her to take the bait! Right now, we only need to conserve our energy and try our best to recover the True Yuan that we have consumed. "
Ximen Zun's words instantly made the Blood Kill King and the Crown Prince of the Light Wind Kingdom excited. Then, they no longer spoke. They ate the meat in big mouthfuls and worked hard to cultivate in silence.
"Ten days? The Blood Spiritual Fruit that can activate a special bloodline actually has an Immortal Crystal? No wonder the West Sword Emperor sent so many experts to deal with Zhao Yu … "
