Chapter 332

When he revealed his small success marrow-cleansing cultivation and entered the Top Ten Geniuses list, Zhao Qing had also sent a congratulatory gift.

Besides Zhou Jiang and Zhao Qing, there were two other outer sect disciples with them, whom he had seen in the outer sect, but he wasn't familiar with them.

He strode over, cupped his hands, and said: "So it was Senior Brother Zhao Qing who came to take over the mine’s affairs. That’s really great."

Zhao Qing smiled and cupped his hands: "For me, this is not a good thing. Junior Brother Xu, I ask for your care in the future. Senior Brother will definitely listen to you."

Two deacons died in more than two months, and Guan Du, a perfected marrow-cleansing expert, and three disciples with perfected gang qi also died. None of the outer sect deacons wanted to take this bitter job, all fearing they would die at Moon Lake.

He had no background and was arranged to come here.

Fortunately, he had established a relationship with Xu Yang early on. As long as he listened to Xu Yang, there shouldn't be any problems.

Xu Yang shook his head: "Senior Brother Zhao is joking. You are the mine manager; I should be the one listening to you."

Zhao Qing’s words were somewhat teasing, so he didn't dwell on this matter and said: "Junior Brother Xu, can we talk in private?"

Xu Yang nodded and entered his courtyard with Zhao Qing.

Zhao Qing first took a jade box from his luggage and handed it to Xu Yang, saying: "This was entrusted to me by Gao Lin to give to you."

Xu Yang opened it and saw it was a Dragon-Tiger Great Golden Pill. He knew this was the subsidy Elder Huoyun gave him every three months and immediately put it away.

"Did my Senior Brother Gao have any words for Senior Brother Zhao to convey?"

Although he had done the Liu Xunjiang and Song Wenxuan matter without any flaws, Liu Qingyuan was always an elder of the Heaven Authority Peak. He also wasn't sure if Elder Huoyun would still stand on his side after he offended an elder.

Logically, at this time, the best way was to let him return to the Purple Sun Sect to avoid the limelight.

"Yes!"

Zhao Qing nodded: "Gao Lin wants me to tell you that the sect didn't pursue Liu Xunjiang’s death, and Liu Qingyuan hasn't made any moves, but the Song family’s eldest son, Song Wenshan, has brought experts to the Yunling Mountain Range. You should be careful.

Elder Huoyun can only ensure that Heaven Origin experts won't take action against you; you have to deal with others yourself."

After speaking, he was full of depression. Coming to Moon Lake at this time was like running into a battlefield, and he could be implicated at any time.

Heaven Origin experts wouldn't take action, so Xu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed that Elder Huoyun didn't ignore him, but wanted to use this matter to temper him.

Carefully calculating, there was only about two and a half years left until the second ascending of the dragon. Elder Huoyun had invested so much in him, naturally hoping he could ascend the dragon a second time.

To speak of emotion, there wasn't much.

Elder Huoyun hoped more for a disciple who could ascend the dragon a second time, so he could say he cared about life and death, or he could say he didn't care.

If he cared, Elder Huoyun hoped he could ascend the dragon a second time, so naturally, he didn't want him to die.

But if he cared about his life and death, he wouldn't let him face a behemoth like the Song family alone. If he hadn't always kept a hand hidden, facing a great family like the Song family would be a life of nine deaths.

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Zhao Qing soon left to familiarize himself with the mine’s affairs.

"Song Wenshan!"

According to Zhao Qing, the Song family patriarch Song Shirong’s eldest son, Song Wenshan, had perfected marrow-cleansing cultivation, and his combat power was among the best in perfected marrow-cleansing. On the surface, he brought a group of Song family experts into the Yunling Mountain Range to search for the Four Evils of Fog Mountain, but no one dared to guarantee that they wouldn't come to kill Xu Yang.

As for how many experts the Song family brought, Gao Lin hadn't found out, but they shouldn't take action against him for the time being.

After all, Song Wenxuan had just died. If he died immediately after, it wouldn't be easy to explain to the Purple Sun Sect.

In the following days, Xu Yang cultivated according to the plan, and without realizing it, a month passed, and the Song family people didn't come to the mine.

In a mountain somewhere in the Yunling Mountain Range, Song Wenshan had been searching for the Four Evils of Fog Mountain in the Yunling Mountain Range with Song family experts for more than a month, but he hadn't found the Four Evils of Fog Mountain.

The Yunling Mountain Range was too vast. Not to mention that they were just a few people, even if there were ten or a hundred times more people, finding a few people in the Yunling Mountain Range was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

If the Four Evils of Fog Mountain were so easy to find, they wouldn't have been rampant in the Yunling Mountain Range for so many years.

"Eldest Young Master, should we continue?" Song Shizhao said.

He was one of the Song family’s perfected marrow-cleansing experts and had also followed to find the Four Evils of Fog Mountain this time.

For a month, there was no trace of the Four Evils of Fog Mountain. He understood that continuing to search would just be a waste of time.

However, he wasn't the one in charge, so whether to continue depended on the instructions of the Eldest Young Master, Song Wenshan.

"Let’s stop here." Song Wenshan sighed.

For more than a month, his hatred had been worn away, and no matter how monstrous his hatred was, he couldn't do anything if he couldn't find the enemy.

It was impossible for them to do nothing and keep searching in the Yunling Mountain Range.

"Rest for a while, go to Moon Lake to kill Xu Yang, and then go back. Bringing his head back will at least be an explanation to the family." Killing intent surged in Song Wenshan’s eyes.

Unable to find the Four Evils of Fog Mountain, his killing intent could only be vented on Xu Yang.

Night, the moon was like a jade plate!

The Yunling Mountain Range at night was not peaceful. Between the towering mountains and ridges, huge beast roars sounded from time to time.

"It’s truly wonderful!"

Xu Yang’s mind covered the mine and spread out. He saw Zhou Jiang and the others who had already fallen asleep, saw the disciples patrolling in secret, and felt the wind and grass movement in the mine.

Before reaching perfected marrow-cleansing, when he released his mind, although he could see these things, he didn't have any perception; it was just seeing them very directly.

After reaching perfected marrow-cleansing, his mind seemed to have a contract with heaven and earth. After releasing his mind, he had this ability to "perceive" the nature of heaven and earth. He seemed to have become this mine, and his mind grew slowly.

"This should be the so-called unity of heaven and man. Before perfected marrow-cleansing, my cultivation wasn't enough to contract with heaven and earth, so even if I released my mind, it wouldn't have this effect."

Xu Yang’s mind was calm, feeling the majesty of heaven and earth and the magic of nature.

"Eh?"

Suddenly, he felt a gaze staring straight at him, carrying killing intent and hostility.

No, strictly speaking, it was staring at the mine, but at this moment his mind covered the entire mine, so the feeling to him was that it was staring at him.

Two!

Three!

Before he could think more, he found that there were a few more gazes staring at him, a total of four, all carrying huge pressure.

"Four perfected marrow-cleansing martial artists, staring at the mine in secret?"

Wandering around the mine during this period and staring at the mine with hostile gazes was clearly ill-intentioned.

"Could it be Song family experts?" Xu Yang’s heart moved.

He immediately rolled out of bed, grabbed the Red Blood placed at the head of the bed, and disappeared into the night like a ghost.

"Eldest Young Master, this is the Purple Sun Sect’s Moon Lake mine!" Song Shizhao pointed to the mine not far away and said.

Song Wenshan nodded: "Do you know how many experts are guarding here?"

He didn't take action rashly, figuring out the situation first.

Song Shizhao said: "This is just a small mine with low output. Under normal circumstances, there are ten outer sect disciples with gang qi cultivation, one outer sect deacon with early marrow-cleansing, and Xu Yang."
