Chapter 1133 – Dividing the Army
Looking at the direction the three left, the killing intent in Mu Sha’s eyes was thick to the extreme, and he had the urge to go after them despite everything.
The previous hand-to-hand combat, so that the twilight clouds know the trio’s slippery, they came prepared, and how can they be easily caught up?
She exhaled a long breath of turbid air, “There’s no need to chase after them, let’s settle these evil things first.”
Mu Sha reluctantly withdrew her gaze, “Actually extending their hands to us, those people from Profound City, I’m only afraid that they are tired of living, right?”
A face flashed through Mureyun’s mind, in these few years the brother and sister duo were in Profound City, although they acted in a high-profile manner, they had never offended anyone.
The Yin Sinking Pearls were worth a lot of money, and it was normal for someone to take the risk for it.
Just who has such a great ability to control this mountain full of evil things?
Evil things have no sanity, how to act all depends on instinct, want to control so many evil things in one breath, even they can not do.
If those people in Profound City had such a skill, how could they have failed to remove the Yin Sinking Pearls from the ancient graveyard to this day?
Thinking of this, a trace of coldness arose in the bottom of Mu Yun’s heart, “I’m afraid that the other party is not from this Abyssal City, and their goal is not the Yin Sinking Bead, but rather, they are rushing towards the two of us!”
After hearing Mure Yun’s deduction, Mure Sand’s face changed again and again, “Sister means, that person came from the Demon Realm, and specifically set up a trap to deal with you and me?”
“Not bad.”
The more Mure Yun thought about it, the more she thought that it was possible, ever since the two of them were recognized by the Greedy Wolf and were formally appointed as Highnesses, there were countless pairs of eyes staring at them.
The competition in the Devil World was fierce and cruel, and even if the two had honorable status, they were no exception.
The people below them, wanted to pull them down from their current positions to take their place, and the remaining few Highnesses, who also had different minds, were very jealous of the duo who were twins.
Not to mention, the two had a high-profile nature when they were in the Demon Realm, and hadn’t offended many people.
“What are you afraid of, soldiers come to block, water to cover the earth is, since there are people who want you and me to die, when the time comes, we will naturally take the initiative to show ourselves.”
Twilight Sand sneered, no fear on his face.
Brother and sister can come to today, also is not a soft persimmon for people to pinch.
After killing the last spiteful demon and instructing the remaining few to clean up the battlefield, Mure Yun joined Mure Sand in exploring the entire Lion’s Camel Ridge.
However, the entire Lion’s Camel Ridge was empty, with neither evil creatures nor Gloomy Pearls.
Mure Sand’s face did not look too good, this feeling of being led by the nose made him feel bad.
Mu Yun’s face was calm, as if he had already anticipated the situation at hand.
From the moment they stepped into the Lion’s Hump’s range and were surrounded by evil creatures, they were a step slow.
“As things stand, there is no other way, we must do our best to rush to the Valley of the Dead Souls and try to find the Yin Sinking Pearl before that person does.”
The Valley of Dead Souls was the last place where the Yin Sinking Pearl might exist.
The level of danger here was even greater than that of Xin Sha Ridge and Lion’s Hump, and more than a dozen expedition teams that had traveled to the Valley of Dead Souls were almost completely wiped out, with only one or two strong people of the Heavenly Demon After Realm returning in the end.
When asked about their experience in the Valley of Dead Souls, the survivors kept mum, and it took a small price for Mure Sand and Mure Cloud to pry out some useful information from the mouths of the survivors.
Coldness flowed out of Twilight Cloud’s brows, “Regarding the news about the Valley of Undead Souls, we have spent so much effort to get hold of bits and pieces, I don’t believe that they can rush to find the Valley of Undead Souls before we do.”
Mure Sand heard his sister’s implication, and his gaze crossed over the several Heavenly Demon powerhouses, “You mean, leave them at Lion’s Hump?”
“Not bad, too many people are rather inconvenient to rush, traveling to the Valley of Undead Souls, the two of us are enough.” According to Mure Yun’s initial plan, naturally, she was going to bring everyone to the Valley of Undead Souls, but now that things had changed, and those who had followed her were dead and injured, she could only temporarily adjust her plan and let the remaining people stay at Lion’s Hump.
Mu Sha frowned, when they set out, the two of them were surrounded by more than thirty Heavenly Demon powerhouses, right now, only these last five or six people remained.
Now, there was still the need to leave these last few people at Lion’s Hump.
He vaguely felt that there seemed to be something wrong, but his sister was smarter than him and considered things more thoughtfully than him, so he did not think much about it.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you, since we have to hurry, let’s leave as soon as possible.”
After learning of the arrangements made by Mure Sand and Mure Cloud, the several Heavenly Demons were a bit surprised and puzzled.
“Your Highness, the other party is obviously prepared, I don’t know how many people have been ambushed in the Valley of Undead Souls, if we go with them, we’ll at least have a lookout.”
“Yes, we are not people who are greedy and afraid of death, we are willing to follow the two Highnesses to the death!”
Mureyun raised his hand and pressed down, signaling the crowd to be quiet, “I already understand your concerns, but my mind is made up, you guys stay at Lion’s Hump and wait for us to come back.”
Seeing her resolute attitude, a few people did not say anything more and watched the two leave.
Two hours later, Mure Sand and Mure Cloud had completely moved away from Lion’s Camel Peak, and the six people who stayed behind also set up camp and began to rest and recuperate.
Black Bone Skeleton, however, took Xu Chuniang and An Yue in a small circle and returned to Lion’s Hump.
Xu Chuniang was a bit surprised, she originally thought that the Black Bone Skeleton would rush to the Valley of Dead Souls to take control of the situation before Mure Sand and Mure Yun like before.
Unexpectedly, he actually did the opposite, killed a horseback shot, let the two big fishes go, and dealt with these small fishes and shrimps first.
Seemingly guessing what she was thinking, the Black Bone Skeleton smiled and asked rhetorically, “Does Fellow Daoist Xu know why I want to deal with these few people first?”
“Soldiers are also tricky.”
After a moment’s thought, Xu Chuniang understood the Black Bone Skeleton’s intentions, “Mure Sand and Mure Yun thought that you would rush to the Valley of Undead Souls first, and in order not to lag too far behind you, they didn’t hesitate to give up their close friends.
Those few Heavenly Demons stationed at Lion’s Hump, will certainly not expect that you will suddenly strike out at them, so that they can be caught off guard …… However, there is one thing that I do not understand.”
“Hehe, Fellow Daoist Xu, but there’s no harm in saying so.”
“You allowed Mu Sha and Mu Yun to head to the Valley of the Dead Souls, weren’t you afraid that they would take the Yin Sinking Pearl first? Or is it that the Yin Sinking Pearl has long since fallen into your hands?”
Speaking the last sentence, Xu Chuniang’s tone carried a coldness, if the Black Bone Skeleton had already traveled to the Valley of Undead Souls and found the Yin Sinking Pearl, then there would be no need to continue the cooperation between the two.
The Black Bone Skeleton said unhurriedly, “Fellow Daoist Xu doesn’t have to be angry, I know what you’re worried about, the Yin Sinking Bead isn’t in my hands, and I haven’t gone deeper into the Valley of Undead Souls.
The reason why I didn’t rush to the Valley of Dead Souls is because I understand the situation there, the level of danger in the Valley of Dead Souls is far from what Lion’s Hump and Xin Sha Ridge can compare to, the Yin Sinking Pearl isn’t that good to take, those two people went there just so they could scout the way for us.”
“What you said, it better be true.”
Xu Chuniang looked deeply at the Black Bone Skeleton, she didn’t finish the latter words, but he wasn’t stupid, he must be able to understand the threatening intent in her words. (End of chapter)
