The crippled old man coughed heavily a few more times. His body was so weak that he bent down very low. He did not say anything else and his attention seemed to have shifted elsewhere.
The hunched old woman withdrew her gaze from Elder Xieâs body, which was bent like a cooked shrimp. The scepter in her hand shook the ground heavily.
A strange buzzing sound spread out, and the abnormalities of the surrounding people were all dispelled.
The round-headed, big-eyed little boy never joined the conversation since the beginning. He only stared at the towering ancient city in the sky and muttered to himself.
âItâs really big, Abyss Island. I really want to go up and playâŚâ
Behind the five people, scattered Spiritual Cultivators were silently observing the movements in front of them.
At the end of the group of Spiritual Cultivators, a one-armed old man who was carrying a large chest of peach wood was listening attentively.
âGod of Dumba*s, Golden Foot, and Elder Xie?â
Xiu Yuanke frowned when he heard that. He soon recalled that these were the three code names for the gold hunting token of the Three Incense Stick. In other words, the three people in front of him were all from the Higher Void (level). At the very least, they were assassins who could hunt the Higher Void (level)!
âThen the people who are following them who can be easily identified are Ghost Granny and Little NinjaâŚ
âHiss, what kind of combination is this? The five gold hunting tokens of the Three Incense Stick are gathered in Dongtianwang City, yet they are still so brazen and undisguised?
âIs it because of Sky City?
âYes, itâs possible. Right now, Dongtianwang City is in chaos because of Sky City. Cutting Path (stage) is appearing one after another, and Higher Void (level) is passing by.
âItâs indeed difficult to recognize a few of them if one doesnât look carefully. Once they go off, itâll be like a fish entering the sea and itâll be even harder to find them.
âAfter all, who is confident enough to confirm that the true face of the gold hunting token assassin of the Three Incense Stick is really the true face?

âThis is quite a big matter. I have to report it to Eldest Senior BrotherâŚâ
A myriad of thoughts flashed through Xiu Yuankeâs mind. Coincidentally, he saw Double Dumba*s, who was at the front, turn his head. His gaze swept in his direction as if he had sensed something.
He quickly acted like a normal person who was sizing up this team of assassins. He shrunk his head in fear, grinned friendly, and nodded to greet them.
Double Dumba*s only swept his gaze and then retracted it. He did not sense anything unusual.
The instinct of an assassin made him aware that there seemed to be an unusual danger. However, when he turned his head to look, he did not find anything too big of a problemâŚ
This only meant that the problem was even bigger!
âEven I canât sense who is spying on meâŚâ Double Dumba*s narrowed his eyes, lowered his voice, and said to the people beside him, âSomething is going on. Letâs cut the crap and go out first!â
The people beside him were stunned at the same time. Their expressions remained the same but all of them became alert.
Elder Xie did not turn his head. But with a sweep of his spiritual senses, he saw the situation of everyone around him.
He deliberately did not use telepathic communication. He only lowered his voice and said, âThere are no problems with the others, but the old man at the back⌠one-armed, carrying a large wooden box and a small ax at his waist, if there is a problem, then this person is the only one.â
Xiu Yuanke trembled. What kind of sharp intuition was this?
âWhy?â Golden Foot looked over in confusion, somewhat did not understand.
Elder Xie sighed, âWhere is this place? This is the Holy Sword Land of the Eastern Region! Where are we now? World-class teleportation portal! How can there be ordinary people in this place? In the Central Region, a person might be an ordinary rich man. But in the Eastern Region, this person is most likely an ancient swordsman!â
Xiu Yuankeâs face was slightly pale. He lifted his sleeve to wipe the sweat off his forehead, conveniently covering his facial expression.
When the boy, Little Ninja, heard this, he could not help but look back. âElder Xie, youâre being too cautious. Itâs called Holy Sword Land in the Eastern Region, but not everyone is a holy sword god.â
Elder Xie shook his head. âYou young people only think of the good aspects in everything. One day, you will invite disaster. I think heâs an ancient swordsman. As for the sword, itâs in that wooden box.â
âHow do you tell? He doesnât have Sword Will!â Little Ninja noticed the abnormal behavior of the one-armed man and ridiculed him.
âItâs the Hidden Sword Technique. Whatâs so strange about it⌠Bazhunâan has attracted a few powerful ancient swordsmen to Sky City, and they are teleporting with us. Isnât that normal?â Elder Xie shrugged and further confirmed his thoughts.
Xiu Yuanke felt a chill on his back. The chill went from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
Eldest Senior Brother, I wanted to look for Eldest Senior Brother!
These several assassins, could they be targeting me?
Golden Foot glanced back at the frightened old man with a broken arm and chuckled, âIâm afraid youâve frightened him. Our target is Xu Xiaoshou, not him.â
Xiu Yuanke suddenly wanted to raise his eyes to look back. Fortunately, he suppressed this impulse.
These assassins were looking for Saint Servant, Xu Xiaoshou?
Yes, possibly the assassins only had this goal, but why did they say it out loud?
âNo, I donât know Xu Xiaoshou either. Why am I so nervousâŚâ Xiu Yuanke felt as if his feet were filled with lead, and it was difficult for him to lift them.
At this time, the leader of the five-man team, Double Dumba*s, responded to Elder Xieâs plan. His footsteps slowed down, and his tone was filled with blame. He then echoed, âWhy did Elder Xie reveal the target of the operation? Isnât everyone already aware of this?â
Elder Xie chuckled, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
âI donât know if that swordsman knows Xu Xiaoshou, but Saint Servant has Xu Xiaoshou and Bazhunâan.
âIf he is attracted by Bazhunâan, maybe he knows Xu Xiaoshou. As long as he reports to someone, we can take the opportunity to follow and cut off the head of that Xu guy to collect the reward.â
