Chapter 51: Old Man Tianxiang
“What? Did you catch the murderer?” An Wenxing's mind was confused and had forgotten who he was questioning.
The elder of the Penal Court understood his emotions and wasn’t angry. “We didn’t see him.”
Qin Yanzhi said coldly, “Lead the way!”
Everyone followed the elder of the Penal Court to the foot of a mountain, which was named Cockscomb Mountain because it looked exactly like one.
They walked halfway up the mountain and found a cave.
The elder of the Penal Court pointed to the entrance of the cave. “This is it.”
The few people entered. The cave was pitch black and the humid air had a sticky stench, which seemed to herald the unknown.
Cultivators of Foundation Establishment and above could see in the dark. Jing Yue increased his vigilance and walked at the end of the group.
The cave was rugged with twists and turns. The rock walls were covered with moss and there was slippery mud under the feet. It was silent except for the sound of water droplets hitting the rocks and everyone's breathing.
