The Snake King slithered out of an underground fountain in a dark valley. He was covered with wounds, and he seemed to be extremely furious.

"She Tianba! Zhu Yan! Wang Ke! You will all die horrible deaths!" the Snake King roared ferociously.

"Cough, cough!"

The Snake King's body trembled after the roar because of his severe injuries.

"Spit!"

The giant serpent opened his mouth and spat a ball of poisonous fog, which enveloped a pile of crystal shards.

"It's shattered again. I took so much pains in repairing my inner core! How did I end up shattering it again? Roar!" the Snake King bawled.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

He wanted to cry but had no tears. She Tianba, you really dragged me into deep sh*t this time!

"Sniff, sniff!" The Snake King sensed something.

"Wang Ke's scent? Zhu Yan's scent? I can recover completely if I find them and devour the ley line gold dragon. I need to find them, but my nose can only give me a general direction! That should be enough, though. I will get you soon!" the Snake King muttered to himself with a sinister look.

Golden Crow Sect—Inside a great hall.

Zhang Shenxu could slowly stand up on his own, under the close watch of the Sect Lord who stood right beside him. Next, Zhang Li'er brought over a bunch of juniors and marched into the hall.

"Greetings, Sect Lord!" the disciples greeted respectfully.

The Golden Crow’s Sect Lord nodded as he looked toward Zhang Li'er. His eyes glistened and said, "Li'er, you broke through to the Astral Infant Stage?"

"That's right. It was all because of Wang Ke and Mo Sanshan. Those two bast*rds really made me angry!" Zhang Li'er complained, still fuming.

"That's a good thing!" The Sect Lord laughed.

"What's so good about that? Sect Lord, Mo Sanshan is crazy! Why would he be slandering me left and right? Sect Lord, send someone to track him down. He hides whenever I chase him. I'm so angry!" Zhang Li'er grumbled.

"Mo Sanshan is slandering you?" Zhang Shenxu was shocked, "Sister, why would he have anything to do with you?"

"Didn’t everything happen because of him? Look at how news was spread all across the Golden Crow Sect! All the juniors say that I like Wang Ke. What a bunch of nonsense! I’m so humiliated!" Zhang Li'er raged.

The juniors behind her lowered their heads.

"Who... Who spread the news?" Zhang Shenxu asked as he locked his sight on one of his junior brothers.

"Senior brother Zhao told me about it!" the junior brother admitted nervously.

The alluded senior looked shocked and immediately pushed the blame, "It was Senior sister Ma who told me about it!"

Senior sister Ma was also shocked. "Senior brother Chen told me!"

They quickly pushed the blame from one to the other; no one could find the true source of the slandering news.

"See, Sect Lord! Aren't you going to manage this problem a little?" Zhang Li'er grumbled.

The Sect Lord's face froze. The culture in our sect is like this. We are a harmonious bunch… It’s just that we really can't keep any secrets. The disciples that returned from the capital in the past few days had already spread the news to the entire sect. Too bad, who asked you to be their Eldest apprentice-sister? You are a celebrity in their eyes! Your every move will attract their attention.

"Sis, weren't those rumors spread by Wang Ke?" Zhang Shenxu asked.

"It's not Wang Ke; he has denied it at every opportunity. Mo Sanshan is the source, that geezer; I'm sure he's up to no good! Hell, he might even be scheming against our sect. Sect Lord, you really need to settle the matter with him!" Zhang Li'er urged.

The Golden Crow Sect Lord: "...........!"

Mo Sanshan is a Hall Lord from the Heavenly Wolf Sect. How do you expect me to settle matters with him? We’re not under the same system!

"Sis, calm down, listen to me." Zhang Shenxu was still unable to wrap his head around the matter. "How are you this sure it was Mo Sanshan?"

And so, Zhang Li'er recounted what had happened in the Demon Suppressing Temple.

Search Hosted Novel for the original.

"What? It really was Mo Sanshan, that old bast*rd?" Zhang Shenxu was immediately triggered.

But the Golden Crow Sect Lord raised an eyebrow and said, "You said there was a monk living in the Demon Suppressing Temple, and that he's called Jie Se from the Blood Temple?"

"That's right!" Zhang Li'er nodded.

"But there’s never been a disciple with the surname 'Jie' in the Blood Temple!" The Sect Lord frowned.

"Uhhh? " Zhang Li'er was also taken aback.

"Quick, get someone familiar with the Blood Temple!" the Sect Lord ordered.

Soon after, two disciples arrived.

One of them reported, "Sect Lord, we are in charge of keeping an eye on all major sects. I'm very familiar with the Blood Temple; no one surnamed Jie Se is part of it!"

"Impossible! I saw him with my own eyes!" Zhang Li'er was overtaken by disbelief.

"We are definitely sure there's no monk there surnamed 'Jie'." that disciple reported.

The Sect Lord found it very peculiar. "Quick, send some men to investigate the Demon Suppressing Temple. Immediately!"

"Right away!" a disciple responded.

"Li'er, you couldn't match Mo Shanahan's speed because you just broke through to the Astral Infant Stage; you need some time to stabilize your cultivation. Why don't you take this opportunity to go into secluded training? Leave the matter for us to handle!" the Sect Lord instructed.

"Understood!" Zhang Li'er nodded in frustration.

And so, Zhang Li'er heeded her Sect Lord's advice, while Zhang Shenxu continued to heal his injuries.

The peculiar monk didn’t weigh too heavily in the Golden Crow Sect Lord's heart. But the report sent back by his disciples two days later made him frown deeply.

"Sect Lord, we went to the Demon Suppressing Temple; no one’s inside! Not even the hint of a person!" that disciple reported.

"Oh? The Demon Suppressing Temple is empty? It disappeared, just like that?" Their Sect Lord was surprised to hear the report.

"It was an old and deserted temple! It had a really insignificant look!" the disciple reported.

The Sect Lord fell into deep thought.

Of course, he wouldn’t invest too much effort into it. Still, half a month later—the Heavenly Wolf Sect sent men to visit him.

One of their disciples said, "Golden Crow Sect Lord, we apologize for our abrupt visit. It's just that our Eldest apprentice-brother Murong Luguang and ten other seniors disappeared. Hall Lord Mo Sanshan pointed us here and asked us to seek Zhang Li'er for help. Do you know our Eldest apprentice-brother's whereabouts by any chance?"

"Murong Luguang disappeared?" The Golden Crow Sect Lord was taken aback.

By the bank of the Miasmic Sea! On a mountain—

Wang Ke led his men up the mountain, looking toward a massive cultivation town in the distance.

"We’re here! Dragon Cultivation Town! Thank goodness we had no more problems along the way!" Wang Ke sighed in relief.

"Indeed, we didn't encounter any issues. But, Wang Ke, can you remove the pimples on my face? You destroyed my face for half a month already!" Zhu Yan complained in anger.

His face was covered with acne; too disgusting to even look at him. Wang Ke applied even more allergic medicine on his face, compared to Princess Youyue's.

"Remove your nose! You should know how big a troublemaker you are! Four waves of enemies came after your life in just a short stay back in the Demon Suppressing Temple! If I weren't smart enough to think of a way and disguise you, I really don't know if you would ever reach the Dragon Cultivation Town alive!" Wang Ke rejected Zhu Yan's demand.

"Damn, what else can I do? Do I really need to keep this ugly face on?" Zhu Yan grumbled.

"You think I like to concern myself with you? It's all because your ancestral uncle pushed the responsibility of taking care of you by force! You don't even know how shattered my heart is, just making sure I send you to the Dragon Cultivation Town safe and sound! And now, you’re unhappy about it? No way, I will keep your face as it is right now! Just wait four to five months until the Dragon Gate Assembly starts. You can do whatever you want after Zi Bufan extracts the gold dragon from your belly! I will certainly remove your disguise by then!" Wang Ke said.

"But how do you expect me to live with this face?" Zhu Yan retorted.

"Definitely better than being captured. Better than unsettling the gold dragon inside you and making it self-explode! Enough talk! Let's enter the town. Quickly, I have many things to do!" Wang Ke urged him before walking to the front.

"Wait, you need to remove my pimples!" Zhu Yan went after him anxiously.
