C1001 Cultivation

The man squatted in front of the corpse and examined it. He found that except for the man who had stolen the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce, who had died from excessive injuries, the other two had been killed by someone. When he saw this, he frowned.

"The item is not with him, and one of those three people betrayed the Chiang Family and killed them. The item should be in that person's hands." He stood up and made such a judgment.

The expression of the people behind him changed when they heard his words. He felt it was unbelievable when he heard that one of the three people sent out by the Chiang Family had chosen to betray him.

"What do we do now?" the man asked.

The two of them were sent by the Chiang Family. Previously, the three of them had been chasing after the traitor and had not returned, so the two of them had been sent out. However, they did not expect that the thing would be taken away by someone else, and it would be the person they had sent earlier.

This way, they wouldn't be able to explain it to the Chiang Family.

"The cultivation of these three people is about the same. Although he killed these two people, he must have been severely injured. He won't be able to run too far. Let's look around." The man said.

His speculation was correct, but they would never think that the man was dead too. The thing was in Qingfeng's hand.

The item that they were looking for was a miraculous and special treasure, called the Red Soul Stone. This kind of stone contained a huge amount of energy, enough for a cultivator to cultivate from the Body Training Realm to the Astral Realm. This was why the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce valued this item so much, and also why they had sent people to investigate it.

The reason was that the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce only had one Done Gang-level Cultivator. The rest of them were only at the Essence Condensation Realm or even the Body Refining Realm. However, the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce didn't expect that the Red Soul Stone Ash would make these people who were searching for it covet it as well. They didn't hesitate to betray the Jiang Family Chamber of Commerce in order to obtain it.

The three assassins could not be blamed for this. After all, the temptation of being able to support their cultivation to the Astral Realm was simply too great. Basically, no one could resist it.

"Look, there's a footprint over there!" The person on the side suddenly found the tracks left behind by the assassin when he chased after Qing Feng and the others.

"Let's go!" When the person saw the traces, he nodded and chased after them with his companions.

The night passed, and the first thing Breeze did when he woke up was to put out the fire to avoid a forest fire. He climbed up a tree, took down the dried wolf meat from the night before, and continued on his way.

Right now, he only had one goal, and that was to find Zi Lan. He was still worried about Zi Lan.

After tidying everything up, Qing Feng continued to walk in the forest.

Qing Feng did not know that two men were following his tracks, but he was too far away for them to find him even if they were cultivators.

After six hours of walking, Qing Feng finally came out of the forest. In front of him was a lake.

There were three people in total. They seemed to be walking in the forest like him, but they stopped to rest when they reached the lake.

Qing Feng hesitated for a while. In the end, he walked toward the three people. When Qing Feng walked toward them, the three people also noticed his presence. They all looked at him with vigilance.

"Halt!" A middle-aged man with a full beard shouted at Qing Feng.

Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, but he didn't continue to approach. There were two young men standing beside the middle-aged man. They looked at Qingfeng with curiosity.

"Who are you? Where are you from?" One of the young man shouted at Qing Feng.

Qing Feng thought for a while when he heard the young man's question. He then said, "My name is Qing Feng, and I'm from the Rain Woman Village. I want to go through this forest to a place with people."

Qing Feng felt that there was nothing to hide. There was nothing special about his background. The three of them should not make things difficult for him because of this.

After hearing what Qing Feng had said, the three of them talked to each other in a low voice and then stopped caring about Qing Feng. They didn't care who Qing Feng was. As long as he wasn't a danger to them, it was fine.

Seeing that the three men were no longer talking to him, Qing Feng did not continue to approach them. Instead, he went to the lake and washed up.

After washing himself, Qing Feng felt that the environment was empty, and there were no wild beasts nearby. Moreover, there were still people here, so he wanted to study the secret book of the Purple Sun Heaven Palm.

He sat down by the lake and took out the Secret Book. After the three of them confirmed that Qing Feng was no longer a threat, they no longer cared about him.

After Qing Feng flipped open the Secret Book, he started to study it. Although he did not know how to cultivate, the explanation on this Secret Book was extremely detailed, and even those who did not know how to cultivate could quickly understand it.

Qing Feng was instantly lost in it, and was very interested in the things inside.

The three men on the other side felt strange when they saw Qing Feng reading a book, but they didn't care about him. They were all hunters, and they had come here to hunt.

Time passed by slowly, and soon, it was the afternoon. The three hunters were ready to leave after they had rested enough.

Qing Feng had also read through the entire Secret Book. He roughly knew how to cultivate the Purple Sun Heaven Palm, but he would not test it here. When he saw the three people leaving, he suddenly thought of walking south, but he didn't know how long it would take to reach the city. He thought that the three people might know something, so he just walked over.

The three men looked at Qing Feng in confusion, not knowing what he was going to do.

"What do you mean?" The middle-aged man with a full face of beard asked Qingfeng vigilantly.

The two young men also stood beside the middle-aged man and looked at Qingfeng curiously, not knowing what he was going to do.

"Well, I would like to ask, what city is there in the south?" Qingfeng scratched his head and asked with embarrassment.

The middle aged man thought Qingfeng had something to ask him, but the fact that he was here to ask for directions put him on his guard for a while, but these three people were not bad people, so Qingfeng didn't refuse when he came over to ask for directions. He just told Qingfeng how long it would take for them to reach the city on the south side.

"There will be a Heavenly Star City a few miles south of here. Don't you know the situation first?" The middle-aged man said as he looked Qing Feng up and down.

Hearing that there was a city a few kilometers away, Qing Feng relaxed a little. Thinking that Zi Lan had left before him, he thought that they should have already arrived at the city.

"Thank you!" Thinking of this, Qing Feng thanked her and continued to walk towards the south.

"What a strange person." The middle-aged man muttered after seeing Qing Feng leave.
