Chapter 865: Hunting the Twin Demons

~7 min read 1,228 words

Qing Lin's realm, Ye Liuyun still cannot see through it.

"It seems this guy's realm is bottomless!" Ye Liuyun thought to himself.

"All the resources in the Qing Huo Mi Jing have been completely exhausted by me!" Liang Xue said with a hint of regret.

"No problem, even if the resources are gone, I still have this!" Ye Liuyun immediately gave Liang Xue many Spirit Stones for her future cultivation.

Liang Xue insisted on refusing, but she couldn't win against Ye Liuyun and finally had to accept.

Then Ye Liuyun recounted many of his experiences and also transmitted the location information of Yonglie Island to Liang Xue and Qing Lin.

"Later we can use that place as our base." Ye Liuyun intended Yonglie Island to be the base for building his own power.

Ye Liuyun and Liang Xue had endless conversation. Being together made them reluctant to part.

"You two, are you planning to chat until the test ends?"

Qing Lin suggested, "For the remaining matters, you two can hunt while you talk! No need to stay in one spot, right?"

"Exactly!" Ye Liuyun and Liang Xue immediately got up, intending to walk and talk at the same time.

"By the way, Xue'er, Qiong Qi forged some armor; I saved a set for you, try it on. Your divine artifact coat is too conspicuous!" Ye Liuyun gave Liang Xue the armor forged by Qiong Qi.

Liang Xue changed into it at once. Ye Liuyun did the same, swapping his own divine armor.

In this way, the two of them no longer needed to wear their divine artifacts. Otherwise they would be too conspicuous and become targets for many who hunt treasures.

"Put Qing Lin away too; he's too much of a hindrance!" Ye Liuyun laughed, asking Liang Xue to store Qing Lin as well.

He had just burned the traces with Qing Huo, but the aura of Qing Huo still lingered. Ye Liuyun was worried he would be singled out.

"Fine! You kid, think I'm a hindrance?" Qing Lin spoke now, much stronger than before. He used to only gesture; now he can say anything.

Liang Xue also laughed and directly stored Qing Lin away.

Ye Liuyun then taught Liang Xue the Shadow Concealment Technique. "This invisibility technique is decent; you can practice it to guard against shadow assassins approaching."

Afterwards, Ye Liuyun first led Liang Xue around the perimeter a few rounds, letting her practice her skills.

Liang Xue's realm appeared rather superficial. Mainly because she had been secluded cultivating, crossing two major realms, but lacked combat training.

Along the way, Ye Liuyun also encountered Liang Xinyu. At that time she was being pursued. Ye Liuyun casually dealt with her pursuers without revealing himself.

Then they began hunting Martial Cultivators of the Zao Hua third and fourth layers.

However, they now also needed the help of the Ghost Butterfly, otherwise the two of them could not match those strong opponents.

In the assassination arena, the participants were all prodigy disciples of various major sects, many already capable of cross‑level combat.

Therefore their strength contained little exaggeration. Ye Liuyun did not dare to be careless and had to treat matters cautiously.

Yet both of them wore the new armor and concealed their faces, so they were not afraid of being recognized, and their hunts were unrestrained.

The Daxia Chao at this moment also dispatched many experts to rush to the assassination arena.

All princes and princesses have fate tags left within the dynasty. Once killed, the dynasty learns of it immediately.

Although dying in the arena is pointless, they still have to make a show of it, investigating the prince's cause of death. Those who can avenge the prince will certainly not hold back.

Within the arena, the shadow organization also investigated who had slain so many of its members.

Ye Liuyun has now slain over a dozen shadow members, finally drawing the shadows' attention. Even lower‑realm shadow members began to gather to avoid being picked off one by one.

The arena is now a swirl of hidden currents.

Yet Ye Liuyun and Liang Xue remain completely unaware.

But they are no longer targeting shadow members. The shadow members here have higher realms, and Ye Liuyun fears that a slip could let them escape and cause trouble for him.

So he tries to avoid shadow members as much as possible, killing disciples of other sects instead.

The two of them can easily hunt more than ten prey each day, and still have plenty of time left for bonding.

As they delve deeper toward the center, the opponents they meet have ever‑higher realms—Zao Hua fifth and sixth layers, even Zao Hua seventh‑layer Martial Cultivators appear frequently.

Fortunately the Ghost Butterfly can handle them, and Ye Liuyun is not worried.

After the Imperial Family investigated, they also detected the aura of Qing Huo, but only as a suspicion.

Moreover, Qing Lin has now been stored away. Even if they track, they find no clues.

So in the end they could only kill some sect disciples of Zao Hua realms and vent their shadow anger.

Ye Liuyun and Liang Xue's realms are too low; no one would suspect them.

He and Liang Xue keep moving constantly to avoid being targeted by shadow members.

Within this Secret Realm, shadow's killing power remains the greatest. Relying on the Shadow Concealment Technique, they can cross two or three realms and easily slay opponents.

Actually most of the disciples participating in the test are still circling the outer perimeter at this moment.

The central Teleportation Array, arriving early is useless. Everyone waits for the final day, hoping luck will carry them into the central teleportation zone.

Only Ye Liuyun and Liang Xue dare, with such low realms, to hunt strong opponents near the central area.

Thus, after a few days, the reputation of Ye Liuyun and Liang Xue spread. Everyone knows that in this region there is a "Hunting Twin Demons" duo wearing armor made of foreign tribe scale, and each strike brings a strong opponent's death.

Ye Liuyun was about to continue the hunt with Liang Xue when he sensed the presence of a winged dragon.

He had once tamed a winged dragon, so he was highly sensitive.

"Ling Shuang!" Ye Liuyun reacted immediately. This winged dragon's aura is the one he helped Ling Shuang subdue.

Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil saw two shadow members from afar, besieging Ling Shuang and Liang Xinyu. The winged dragon stood before them, struggling to resist.

"Why are those two together? This is troublesome," Ye Liuyun worried. Those two shadow members are of Zao Hua fifth and sixth layers, truly elite assassins.

They also sensed Ye Liuyun and Liang Xue's aura from afar, instantly shifting into shadow form and hiding their bodies.

Ling Shuang and Liang Xinyu dared not move recklessly, holding their divine artifacts in place, ready for battle.

Ye Liuyun did not dare to delay, and immediately released the Ghost Butterfly, attempting to drive those two shadows away.

However, the two shadows stayed hidden in the darkness, assuming Ye Liuyun would not notice them.

Now the dilemma falls on Ye Liuyun. If he shows he has discovered the two shadows, it would essentially inform the shadows that he has killed many of their members.

If he pretends not to know, he will be trapped in their encirclement.
