No matter how clever, she couldn’t deceive him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When did that Corpse Refining Sect member acquire that corpse puppet?\" Song Changming asked about the main issue after probing the girl’s background.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to him, it should have been twenty years ago...\" Su Qingqing’s memory must be excellent, as she could recall many things irrelevant to her, even drunken words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Corpse Refining Sect, being able to refine a Black Rock Corpse Puppet was something to boast about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, during her time following him, the Corpse Refining Sect member mentioned this more than once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you know the whereabouts of the bodies that were taken away with the corpse puppet?\" Song Changming asked with a mindset of just trying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl shook her head and did not know about this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she had only been with the Corpse Refining Sect member for two years, and such a long-past matter wasn’t something she could know in detail if he didn’t share.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The questioning concluded, and the air turned heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not getting the information he most wanted from the girl left him somewhat disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, I’ll have to seek information from other Corpse Refining Sect members...\" Song Changming thought to himself while roasting bear meat over the fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bear was a fierce beast from under the great fog, not a Fog Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was unfortunate to encounter Song Changming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rich oils dripped from the meat and bones, sizzling as they hit the fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The aroma quickly spread around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl swallowed, clutching her rumbling stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her dark eyes seemed glued to the meat and bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was already pale, having not eaten in a long time and being unconscious for a whole day and night, leaving her malnourished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming refocused his thoughts, gazing at the little girl eagerly watching the roasted meat, contemplating what to do with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the little girl were a disciple of the Corpse Refining Sect, causing harm to others, it would be simplest to just strike her down with a single blow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But ultimately, she was just a poor child abducted by human traffickers, making it a difficult decision for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a large bone with meat attached and handed it over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eat,\" Song Changming said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally weak and dispirited, Su Qingqing’s eyes lit up seeing the steaming bone meat in front of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Disregarding everything else, she opened her mouth wide and took a bite, almost rolling on the ground from the heat, tears welling in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming realized that although the girl appeared clever, she was quite careless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few bites, she choked, her cheeks flushed red, and Song Changming had to hand over a water bottle to help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you...,\" Su Qingqing mumbled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After filling her stomach, Song Changming extinguished the fire, stood up, and dusted himself off to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little girl blinked, a bit panicked, glancing around at the pitch-black surroundings, shivering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She immediately tossed away the bone she had gnawed clean and cautiously followed Song Changming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Falling behind him, she didn’t dare to get too close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming glanced at the little girl from the corner of his eye and said nothing, allowing her to follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The night was so dark. Su Qingqing stumbled along, her steps uneven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it grew later in the night, she became more fatigued and wobbly, almost falling, unable to keep up with Song Changming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming stopped walking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had previously threatened and intimidated the little girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Logically, he should appear extremely dangerous to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Afraid,\" Su Qingqing confessed honestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if I don’t follow, I will die here too...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instinct to survive allowed her to overcome her fear of Song Changming. She knew how dangerous this thick fog was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alone here, she likely wouldn’t make it through the night and would most probably become prey for a Fog Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, she had to follow Song Changming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, only Song Changming could protect her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming found a cave within the rocks and took a brief rest inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at the little girl sleeping soundly in the corner of the cave, wrapped tightly in a gray cloak, resembling a disguised stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he couldn’t bring himself to drive her away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head to look at the darkness outside the cave and sighed heavily in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of his elder and second brother, who were turned into Corpse Puppets and were restless in their deaths, he felt stifled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought of his deceased parents and childhood memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Corpse Refining Sect...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming’s eyes were dark and cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the next morning arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming set off again. Su Qingqing, drowsy from sleep, heard the commotion and sprang to her feet without hesitation, hurriedly following.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, for her, was another day of fighting to survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they moved to the bottom of a mountain, Song Changming saw several broken corpses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the torn clothes, it was clear that these people were the deceased disciples of Wangyue Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging by the blood stains and the degree of decay, they had just died recently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding devastation indicated that a fierce battle had taken place nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were traces of Fog Beasts rampaging, as well as remnants of sword fights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed Wangyue Pavilion’s team didn’t gain any advantage in the battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming unconsciously quickened his pace; he didn’t want to return without having seen Liu Yan’Er, only to bring back ill news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After walking a bit further, he suddenly stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qingqing, following closely behind, nearly bumped into Song Changming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wha-what’s wrong...\" Su Qingqing asked weakly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming just looked around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, a sense of chilliness engulfed them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the thick fog, pairs of eyes emitting eerie glows were moving restlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With sharp perception, Song Changming sensed the scattering Scorching Mist Energy and confirmed that a group of Fog Beasts was approaching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Qingqing quickly reacted and was quite scared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wha-what should we do...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the Fog Beasts emerged from the fog, appearing before them, Su Qingqing panicked and nervously grabbed Song Changming’s sleeve, fearing he would abandon her and flee.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were two-headed wolves with pitch-black fur, bodies as big as rhinoceroses, and jaws full of protruding fangs, looking rather fierce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Changming stood his ground, seemingly unfazed or perhaps accustomed to such situations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For him, this was just a minor scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his powerful refined Spiritual Power, under spiritual perception, he could easily assess these Fog Beasts’ strength and judge their threat level towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two-headed wolves were merely equivalent to the threat level of a First Layer Qi Refining Martial Artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were nothing more than small fry to Song Changming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What concerned Song Changming wasn’t this pack of two-headed wolves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, it was the Outer Realm Evil Cult Members who drove the two-headed wolves to approach them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About three or four of them emerged slowly from behind the wolf pack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With their attire instantly recognizable as Outer Domain style, they held several Mist gold pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Approaching, they began observing Song Changming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, doesn’t seem like a Wangyue Pavilion disciple?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No matter, this guy getting here must also be quite capable.
