310 Haunting

Hearing the captain’s words, Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed.

He looked at the statue in the temple. Only now did he know that this temple had such a background.

Recalling that saber strike back then, Xu Qing gained even more insights.

The captain sighed inwardly. He also knew that this kind of fortune wasn’t as simple as taking a bite. Not only did it require comprehension, but it also required fate. Most importantly, this statue no longer had the spiritual charm. He couldn’t possibly kill Xu Qing in exchange for an opportunity to comprehend it…

Moreover, he felt that he might not be able to defeat Xu Qing anyway. This kid had hidden his strength deeply.

!!

Therefore, although he was extremely interested in this Extreme Heaven Saber, there was nothing he could do.

It was dawn. Xu Qing didn’t continue into the depths of the forbidden zone. Even with his current cultivation, he could still sense the malicious divine sense locked onto him.

Hence, after Xu Qing stared at it a few times, he decisively chose to leave.

“The places with the Extreme Heaven Dao Temple are usually sealed with some great ferocious beasts and bizarre entities. Xu Qing, this forbidden zone near your house isn’t simple.”

The captain also sensed the divine sense lock from the depths of the forbidden zone. He looked into the distance meaningfully, his body emitting some cold air.

Xu Qing didn’t say anything and soared into the air. He didn’t plan to walk back. The captain smiled and also rose into the air. However, when he was in the air, he looked back many times at the Dao temple and then at the depths of the forbidden zone.

In the sky deep in the forbidden zone, the fog was slowly flowing. It looked like a woman’s black hair was fluttering in the sky. A dense resentment kept rising from the depths of the forbidden zone and fused into the clouds, causing her long hair to be even denser. From afar, it was as though this entire forbidden zone was a woman’s head.

“I wonder what bizarre entity is sealed here. I really want to take a look…” The captain mumbled. He hesitated for a moment before turning and flying toward Xu Qing.

“Xu Qing, where are you going next? Don’t tell me you’re returning to the sect just like that.” When he arrived beside Xu Qing, the captain stretched his back and took out an apple to eat as he spoke.

“I plan to find a black market to sell something.” Xu Qing calmly spoke.

“Selling things on the black market? Stolen goods?” The captain’s eyes lit up.

Xu Qing glanced at the captain and nodded.

“Let me take a look. Why don’t you sell them to me? I love stolen goods the most.” The captain’s interest was piqued. Xu Qing hesitated for a moment. He felt that it wasn’t good to sell them to an acquaintance. Once it was discovered that the magic artifacts only had their shells left and would shatter with a little force, the other party would immediately find him.

“These items are suitable for the black market.” Xu Qing refused politely.

“Little Qing, you can’t be so stingy. Isn’t it the same whoever you sell the goods to? Are you looking down on me? I have money!” The captain glared.

Xu Qing’s expression was strange. He coughed and decided not to trick the captain. Hence, he didn’t answer the other party’s words and sped up, heading straight for Antler City’s teleportation array.

As for the black market he chose, he had already inquired from the Diamond Sect’s ancestor before he came.

In a place called the Lingyou City that was close to the Litu Sect’s territory, the surrounding desolation was even worse than in the Red Plains. Hence, that place was also not valued by the various forces but it gathered ferocious people and gradually became a the black market trading center.

As for the items he wanted to sell, the Diamond Sect’s ancestor had absorbed most of their energy before using some method to make them look like there was no issue. Originally, Xu Qing didn’t think of selling them either, but the expenditure to refine the little black bugs was really too large.

Right now, he didn’t have many spirit stones left, so Xu Qing thought of his magic artifacts…

“I’ll return to the sect after selling them.” Xu Qing made up his mind. As he sped, he got closer and closer to Antler City and would reach it in another seven to eight minutes. However, Xu Qing suddenly stopped in mid-air and looked at the ground.

On the ground, there was a convoy heading to Antler City.

There were more than 30 completely black carriages in the convoy. Even the people sitting on the carriages and the guards in the surroundings were wearing black robes.

The feeling the convoy gave off was gloom and killing intent. In this area, not many forces dared to provoke such a force.

This was especially so since there was clearly a high-level Qi Condensation cultivator inside whose aura carried an extraordinary pressure. In addition, on a carriage in the middle, Xu Qing saw an old man.

This old man’s cultivation was at the Foundation Building realm but it hadn’t reached the level of igniting his life fire to activate the Mystic Brilliance Form. In Xu Qing’s eyes, the magic power fluctuations on the other party’s body looked to be about 15 to 16 opened magic apertures.

As for the other carriages, outsiders might not be able to sense them but they were clearly visible in Xu Qing’s eyes. Every carriage was a cage that imprisoned scavengers.

There were men and women, and most of them were children. All of them were unconscious. There were some adults who were awake but their expressions were dispirited and their bodies were without strength. They lay in the cage with despair in their eyes.

“Night Dove is really annoying. It’s like a lingering ghost which can’t be killed no matter what you do.” The captain also saw the convoy on the ground and said in disgust.

“Is it because the demand for treasure-nurturers is very high that we can’t kill them completely?” Xu Qing coldly looked at the convoy below and asked.

“That’s right. The Nanhuang Continent’s demand for treasure-nurturers mainly comes from Purple Earth and the Litu Sect. However, in overseas… especially the Wanggu Continent, their demand for treasure-nurturers is even greater.”

“After all, not only do magic treasures need treasure-nurturers to absorb anomalous substances, but also some magic treasure fragments and high-level magic artifacts. Similarly, they also need people’s lives to clean them. There are many transactions done secretly even in the Seven Sects Alliance.”

“Moreover, using the lives of many treasure-nurturers will have an even better effect in nurturing the treasures, so all the races are involved in their transactions. The human race in the Nanhuang Continent more or less has some traces of bloodline of Purple Green Kingdom, so using them to nurture treasures has outstanding results.”

“Therefore, Night Dove is extremely active in the Nanhuang Continent,” the captain said gloomily.

Xu Qing fell silent and looked at the convoy below. At the next instant, the black iron stick whistled out from the shadow behind him.

As thunder rumbled, the black iron stick descended like a bolt of black lightning and passed through the necks of the black-robed Night Dove members.

These Qi Condensation Night Doves couldn’t dodge at all. In fact, they couldn’t even see it clearly before they met their ends.

From afar, one could only see a black line swimming between the carriages, and blood spurting out of bodies. Even the Foundation Building old man couldn’t react in time and was instantly pierced.

However, the Diamond Sect’s ancestor didn’t kill him. He brought the old man’s body before Xu Qing.

The old man was shivering, his eyes revealing unprecedented horror.

In his eyes, Xu Qing and the captain, who had changed their appearances, emitted terrifying fluctuations that affected the surroundings and distorted his vision. In his perception, the two people in front of him could destroy his body and soul with a finger.

After all, although they were all at the Foundation Building realm, the difference was too great.

“Seniors, I…”

“Where is your convoy going?” Xu Qing coldly asked.

The old man hesitated for a moment and impatience appeared on Xu Qing’s face. Just as he was about to interrogate him, the captain smiled.

“Let me do it.” With that, he lifted his right hand and grabbed at the air. Immediately, countless cold air gathered into a needle. Under the horror of the old man, it pierced into his body and slowly circulated through it.

The pain brought about by this wandering didn’t last long before the old man collapsed and told them everything he knew truthfully.

They weren’t the only ones dispatched by Night Dove this time. All the Night Dove members in the Nanhuang Continent had received orders from their superiors to secretly send the goods in their hands to the Seven Blood Eyes.

He also told them that it wouldn’t be long before the major client came to the Seven Blood Eyes from afar. The other party wanted a large number of goods.

There were many such convoys in the entire Nanhuang Continent, and they were all thinking of ways to head to the Seven Blood Eyes.

When Xu Qing heard this news, a ferocious glint flashed in his eyes.

He was disgusted. The captain also narrowed his eyes. With a wave of his hand, the old man’s entire body trembled and exploded, turning into blocks of ice that landed on the ground, his body and soul destroyed.

“Looks like the Homicide Department will have some work to do. However, I’m curious. Who is the big client he mentioned? Does coming from afar mean he is an outsider?” The captain fell silent and looked at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing didn’t speak but the ferocity in his eyes was intense. He waved his hand and the cages in the carriages below opened. Everyone inside woke up and regained their freedom.

Xu Qing didn’t bother too much. They had only met by chance, and he had only made a move because he hated Night Dove. He continued onward to Antler City with the captain. The two of them quickly teleported away and headed for Lingyou City.

Lingyou City, which was located at the edge of the Litu Sect’s territory, was the opposite of the desolate environment in the surroundings. This small city was quite lively and had no order. Hence, it was often a place that wanted criminals and desperadoes liked.

This caused this city to be filled with chaos, and there were many Foundation Building cultivators here. Even Golden Cores appeared occasionally. Most of them were here to trade shady items.

Generally speaking, those who dared to come here to trade were usually people with some confidence in themselves. In addition, although this city was chaotic, it didn’t mean that it was filled with endless killings. As long as the visitors didn’t reveal their wealth, they could still move without problems here.

This abnormal prosperity also caused the Lingyou City to be quite famous in the Nanhuang Continent, and various forces lived here.

The survival of the fittest was the only rule here.

Hence, when Xu Qing and the captain walked out of the teleportation array, what greeted them was many malicious gazes from the cultivators who were assessing their strength and value.

Among them, there were also some children who lived in Lingyou City. They were also observing and waiting for cultivators who had come to Lingyou City for the first time. Such people would usually hire a native as a guide.
