Chapter 956: The Final Destination
As soon as they entered the next city, Gu Fan and Lord Xiong felt hungry, so they went to a restaurant, ordered some food, and then overheard the people in Martial Arts at the next table discussing animatedly.
"Have you heard?" one of them said, "The Devil Cult colluded with the vampires from the West, and they were exterminated by a coalition of various factions in Martial Arts. Now, every major faction wants to claim the Devil Cult’s treasures for themselves."
Another nodded, "I’ve heard about that too. Only Mo Yun and some man, whose name and face are unknown, are left in the Devil Cult. Only they know where the Devil Cult’s treasures are hidden."
"Some time ago, a group of people chased after Mo Yun and that man. They pursued them to a small city near the borderlands, but not a single one of those pursuers came back."
"The rumors outside are quite sinister now. They say that Mo Yun has a treasure map of the Devil Cult, and that the man possesses the secret script of Martial Arts that everyone in Martial Arts desires."
"There’s no helping it, An innocent man gets into trouble because of his wealth. Mo Yun and that man don’t have the power to possess these things; naturally, they have become the prey in everyone’s eyes."
"The worst part is for their Devil Cult, as everyone has a justifiable reason to hunt them down."
Listening to these people in Martial Arts, Gu Fan felt a chill in his heart. If he hadn’t encountered Xue Wang and Lord Xiong, perhaps he and Mo Yun would really have been hunted by people in Martial Arts day and night.
And after hearing all this, Lord Xiong truly believed in the predicament of Gu Fan and Mo Yun. It seemed that Gu Fan truly had no better options and had to follow Xue Wang.
