âAh⊠Why are you still thinking about that⊠I know⊠Really⊠Wait. I smell blood.â Jun Yinglian sensed something, so she rushed out. The lady left, maybe because of something she sensed, or because of Ye Xiaoâs nagging.
Ye Xiao naturally followed her out.
They followed the smell, and their spiritual minds went before them. In the forest, there was a mess.
Apparently, somebody had fought there. Broken body parts were everywhere. Blood ran into a river all over the place.
âIt is a fight between martial artists.â Ye Xiao knew what had happened.
âWhy?â Jun Yinglian said, âThis is the North Sky, and this place is close to the central area. There is a city not far from here. It could be some officials, couldnât it?â
âLian Lian, you didnât live in the Land of Han-Yang like I did. You donât know enough about kings! If people of the North Sky government did this, they wouldnât leave the bodies here like this.â
Ye Xiao said, âBesides⊠They wouldnât need to cover this up. Look at the bodies. They were from two different forces. At last, I know one of the clothes they wore. It belongs to the Brotherhood Alliance. I have no idea who the other side is, but⊠I think it could be the Great Ye Army.â
âOne more thing⊠After this fight, they left in a hurry⊠They didnât even have time to check the bodies⊠They left fast because they didnât want to get caught by the North Sky governmentâŠâ
Ye Xiao said, âI think these are enough. Donât you?â
âYou said the Brotherhood Alliance was a great force in the Limitless Ocean. They should be as powerful as the House of Chaotic Storms and the Hall of Returning Nature. The Great Ye Army is now. If these two forces had a fight, it should be a big event. Besides, they didnât need to fight here in the North Sky. We are quite far away from the Limitless Ocean, arenât we?â Jun Yinglian was confused.
âThe Great Ye Army is playing tough this time. Are they going to call for the Breaking Heaven operation? Even this man died here! This is important!â Ye Xiao said.
Jun Yinglian was surprised. âDo you know some of these men?â
Ye Xiao shook his head and said, âNot really. I have seen him beforeâŠâ Ye Xiao stared at a dead body and said, âBecause this man died, I have the idea that the Great Ye Army did this.â
He walked to a dead body and said, âThis man is the tenth leader of the Brotherhood Alliance, Wild Leopard, Peng Zhuiyun. When the Brotherhood Alliance people were besieged by the Great Ye Army in the city, this man faced all the Great Ye Army people alone. He was a hero. I wanted to make friends with him, but now it is too lateâŠâ
Jun Yinglian looked at Peng Zhuiyunâs body and shook her head. âA man dies, his power goes off. This man must be at the Immortality Stage. Why do you care about his death so much?â
Ye Xiao smiled and said, âLian Lian, you met a good master, so you improved really fast. However, it is difficult for ordinary cultivators to improve. Reaching the Immortality Stage means reaching the top of the world. Peng Zhuiyun was at the top of the Immortality Stage, and he had traveled the world for a long time. If he wasnât great, he wouldnât dare to face the Great Ye Army people on his own. I didnât have the vision to see his real power. I thought the leaders of the Brotherhood Alliance were at about the same level as the seven clan masters of the seven clans. I was wrong!
âLook at this man now. I finally realize how powerful the leaders of the Brotherhood Alliance are. Peng Zhuiyun was the weakest. The other leaders must be beyond the Undead Stage. They are such an old organization, and they have been hiding deep! I just donât understand why Peng Zhuiyun would die here like this.â
Ye Xiao frowned and said, âNo matter who wants to kill the Wild Leopard, they have to pay a big price. Peng Zhuiyunâs private guards must be powerful too. They must have died with him⊠Perhaps, one of the Seven Golden Lotuses did this!â
Ye Xiao thought for a while. It was true. Only some of the great cultivators and royal cultivators could kill the Wild Leopard without getting hurt.
Even Chihuo or Lvshui couldnât kill Peng Zhuiyun so easily. It must be done by somebody better than Chihuo and Lvshui.
Peng Zhuiyun had a special technique that allowed him to escape from any extreme situation.
Who could kill him like this? He didnât even have a chance to flee.
âI admired this man. Letâs bury him, and wish him peace.â Ye Xiao reached out one hand and hit the floor. It dug a pit. He put all those dead bodies into the pit and buried them.
When he moved Peng Zhuiyunâs body, he hesitated.
âHis body⊠I should send it back to the Brotherhood Alliance.â Ye Xiao sighed. âThe code of brotherhood of the Brotherhood Alliance is impressive. The Wild Leopard had been heroic in his life. I should let his brothers see his body for the last time.â
Ye Xiao used the special wood in the Wood Space to make a coffin. He put Peng Zhuiyunâs body into the coffin, and then put it into a space ring.

It was done. The two of them went back on the road. They planned to have a rest in the city near this place, and collect some information at the same time. However, Ye Xiao realized that the situation in the martial world was much worse than he had thought. He decided to return to the Monarchâs Hall as soon as possible. They went over the city and kept moving forward fast.
After three thousand miles, they saw the clouds stirring in the sky. They felt some strong killing power spreading.
Ye Xiao dashed and moved up to the sky.
As he could see, three people were moving over like lightning. The killing intent felt like something solid.
