Chapter 93: Ch. 43 Part 2
*************
Yanzhi brought them to land on a mountain, Yue also jumped off her sword beside them before putting it away.
"Xiang gong what’s going on? Where are we and why are w..." Xiao Ling stopped in his words... he turned to look at a direction with dense of tress with a stoic face. "There are people fighting here" he suddenly stated forgetting the complains he just had moments ago.
"Liu and Chang are here" Yanzhi informed him as they took on the path they sensed the fight at.
"What? Why?" he asked with uneasiness. Judging from the sounds they were picking, it wasn’t a small fight, and there was a strong fluctuation of energy in the air. It made him slightly anxious for their safety. It wasn’t that he was worried that they would loose if they were engaged in a fight, hell no! that won’t happen, the people trained by Yanzhi himself aren’t weak to loose in a fight against others, and Liu and Chang weren’t even human in the first place so how could they loose? Xiao Ling just felt that they shouldn’t involve themselves too much in the schemes and conspiracies of the people in the capital, the capital is filled with malicious energy everywhere and they didn’t know exactly what is going on in the capital. They had long made up their minds not to get themselves involved in whatever happens or goes on in the capital, unless it’s of beneficial to them that they’ll be involved. So Xiao Ling couldn’t tell why Yanzhi decided to get involved.
"They said this immortal Pei was searching for a treasure and it was here... I just got curious and wanted to know what treasure would be found in this realm. I wasn’t very sure, so i just sent them to check on a whim. But since stepping foot on here, i can sense it.... there’s really a treasure here." Yanzhi explained to him so he would understand why he got involved.
"That happened? What treasure it is, do you know?"
"En! ...but i have to see to be sure. I guessed but..."
"But what what?" Xiao Ling asked seeing him stopped talking, he saw YanZhi squat. He wasn’t looking ahead and had his attention only focused on Yanzhi, so he didn’t sense what Yanzhi sensed until he saw YanZhi stopped and squatted. Xiao Ling bend to look at the blood trails on the ground.
"Is...that a trail made by a snake?" Xiao Ling asked looking carefully at the trail.
"It is, but it’s not left by them. It seems the animals on this mountain have been enlightened, if so then the treasure is really what i had in mind." Yanzhi stood up on his feet and said with a grim look.
