Chapter 111

BaoBao, calm down first. I’ll finish this mission quickly. Afterwards, we’ll see if we should leave this world.” XunMi comforted. They weren’t even sure what exactly was going on right now. They needed to focus on more urgent matters.

BaoBao nodded dispirtedly. He completely didn’t know the root of this problem. This was like a slap in the face for him.

XunMi didn’t sleep that night.

When Ouyang HanShuang woke up and went to call her teacher, she found that XunMi was already in the courtyard waiting for her.

“You’re up. Let’s go.” XunMi left two gold pieces for the owners of the household and quietly left.

When they arrived at Death’s Eye, she kicked Ouyang HanShuang over to go play with the demon beasts. She left a bunch of DuoWei beasts for Xiao Bai and found a place to go into secluded cultivation.

She stayed in seclusion for two whole months. When she woke up, she was at the lower levels of soul senior but had the strength of a high leveled soul senior. Not many people would be able to compare to her strength across TianZe mainland.

But she had no interest in becoming a major figure in this world. She was only interested in looking for that person.

She freely swam in the lake for awhile sending news out for Ouyang HanShuang.

For these two months, Ouyang HanShuang was laden with grief. Those demon beasts must be very scared of her teacher. Even though her teacher was in secluded cultivation, they still hid in their nests and refused to come out. Even when she searched the through the entire Death’s Eye, she still couldn’t find any demon beasts.

She passed one month just searching. When Xiao Bai’s rations were out, he finally took her to look for those hidden demon beasts.

She didn’t need to do much. When he saw one, she would just go up to steal one. Like teacher, like disciple.

With the addition of Xiao Bai, Ouyang HanShuang could be said to be someone who could travel carefreely through Death’s Eye. During her leisurely walks, she was able to gain a Vermilion Bird egg.

That was an ancient animal deity, much more powerful than the more recent animal deities.

“Teacher! I missed you so much, you’re finally out!”  Ouyang HanShuang immediately threw herself onto XunMi.

In this place where there was nothing but demon beasts, she really was lonely. All that the demon beasts knew how to do was hide, hide, hide.

XunMi patted Ouyang HanShuang’s head. “You’ve moved up in levels really quickly. You’re aura also feels very steady. Let’s stay another day and then leave here. We’ve been out for a few months now, it’s time to go back.” She needed to hand Ouyang HanShuang off to Senior Brother Tian Xuan and ask him to watch over her. Then, she’ll go to ShengGu and find her dear husband.

When Ouyang HanShuang heard that they were leaving, she shouted out with joy.

To others, Death’s Eye was a graveyard. But to the two of them, it was like their family backyard garden. When they wanted to come, they’ll come. When they wanted to leave, they’ll leave, completely unobstructed.

Actually, the demon beasts had a lot to complain about. These two violent women always had their eyes on them. But they weren’t able to defeat them in battle either. So if they don’t hide were they supposed to wait to be stolen?

In good spirits, the two went back to tormenting the demon beasts.

XunMi was very benevolent this time. She left a medicinal pill for the demon beasts that she was already familiar with. Of course, she didn’t forget to steal a few things from them first. Seeing their eyes brimming with tears, XunMi hardened her heart and walked away.

Stunned Demon Beasts: Who said that looking pitiful will make her softhearted? Liars!  (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

With their new harvests, XunMi and Ouyang HanShuang began heading back. While others needed to practice for at least half a year, these two were able to accomplish everything in two months and even raise their cultivation level.

When they were nearing Liu family, XunMi and Ouyang HanShuang heard some surprising news.

The Liu family head has changed. They had anticipated this news. The surprise was that the new Liu family head was a woman. Moreover, that woman’s name was Liu ZhenXin!

wtf. XunMi and Ouyang HanShuang simultaneously cursed.

How could this world play them like this. Dying and coming back to life once? Ok fine. But dying and coming back to life twice?

(‵′) They wanted to go on strike. They wanted to protest.

“Teacher, is this Liu ZhenXin some kind of cat demon?  Maybe she has nine lives? We’ve killed her twice, but she’s still jumping around.” Ouyang HanShuang was getting frustrated. What method can keep her dead?

Did they really have to kill her nine times?

XunMi’s face also darkened. This was about to become her internal demon.

“Let’s go take a look at Liu family. Liu ZhenXin’s ability to resurrect must be related to that black corroding energy.” She didn’t forget about that mysterious factor. Now, she was thinking that thing could be world’s hidden element.

Ouyang HanShuang angrily stabbed her bowl of rice. That damn Liu ZhenXin was so troublesome.

XunMi didn’t know how Liu ZhenXin became the Liu family head. Her intuition was telling her there was something fishy.

The two of them unrelentingly hurried to Liu family residence, arriving as the sun set. They hid in the dark, and waited for nightfall.

While they waited, they realized many problems. Liu family’s defenses were very relaxed, as if they weren’t worried about any surprised visitors.

Moreover, the people in the Liu family residence were strange. Their movements were very rigid and their eyes were lifeless. As if-

As if they were marionettes.

Looking at XunMi, Ouyang HanShuang quietly said, “Teacher, I think Liu family has taken a turn for the grotesque. It’s like all these people are being controlled, as if they’ve lost their souls.”

XunMi rubbed a leaf that she picked off a tree, her eyebrows furrowed.

“Devouring Heart Method.” Based on BaoBao’s scan, she found out that this world had quite a lot of forbidden methods.

This particular method had stopped being passed down a thousand years ago. And now it appeared in Liu family? Hehe.

“HanShuang, stay behind me later. Don’t walk too far away.”

What exactly was Liu family hiding? BaoBao wasn’t able to find out through his scan. He could only see an entire screen of red dots.

She wanted to know if first and second elder were okay. She hoped it wasn’t too late.

Ouyang HanShuang realized that she only had an one-sided understanding of this world. Sticking close to her powerful teacher was the most reliable option.

The reliable XunMi: She was actually very tactless too okay?

Two foreigners to the land began their night observations of Liu family’s behavior.

XunMi brought Ouyang HanShuang to the restricted area. They didn’t need to observe those people outside anymore.

Two months ago, Liu ZhenXin was a soul sage. Even if she didn’t level up, she would still be on equal combat strength as the two elders.

Passing through the broken protection field, XunMi walked forward with a heavy heart.

As she walked towards the back of the mountain, she could feel the a disgustingly unpleasant smell growing stronger.
