David didn’t know what was happening in his sea of consciousness, so for now he could only thank the Red Cloud Demon Lord.
“No need to be so polite with me!” said the Red Cloud Demon Lord arrogantly. “However, that person’s soul was eventually absorbed by that golden ancient book, which saved me a lot of trouble.”
David then realized that Xue Wuying’s soul had been absorbed by the Great Luo Golden Scripture in his sea of consciousness.
Even the Red Cloud Demon King’s soul was afraid of the Great Luo Golden Scripture, so the Blood Shadowless Soul wasn’t even a threat at all.
Seeing David’s expression, the Red Cloud Demon Lord quickly explained, “However, I did teach that guy a proper lesson, don’t think I’m bragging!”
“No, senior is the most powerful person in the Nine Heavens, how could he be boasting?”
David smiled faintly.
Those words made the Red Cloud Demon Lord blush slightly, and he completely ignored David!
Looking at the dry and bloodless corpses on the ground, Hu Mazi asked, “David, what should we do now?”
David snapped out of his reverie, looked at the dried corpse on the ground, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes.
“Xue Wuying has died. We need to find a way to get clues about the souls of your people from her.”
After saying that, David walked over to Xue Wuying’s mummified body and began to search her body.
Not long after, he found a black jade pendant in Xue Wuying’s arms.
This jade pendant was entirely black, engraved with strange runes, and exuded a sinister aura.
“What’s this?” Hu Mazi asked curiously.
David examined the jade pendant carefully and said, “This should be a sign of the Evil Path Hall; perhaps we can find some clues in it.”
After saying that, David carefully put away the jade pendant and then said to Hu Mazi, “Mr. Hu, let’s leave here first and find a safe place to study this jade pendant more carefully.”
Hu Mazi nodded, and the two, without any further hesitation, turned around and left the branch hall of the Evil Path Palace.
When they came out of the valley, they found it was already late at night.
Moonlight shone on the earth, adding an eerie beauty to the gloomy forest.
“Where shall we go next?” Hu Mazi asked.
David thought for a moment and said, “Let’s find a place to rest first, then we’ll find a way to study the jade pendant. By the way, do you know there is a safe place nearby?”
After thinking for a moment, Hu Mazi said, “We can go back to Dongxiang County and rest there; it’s safe there.”
David glanced at Hu Mazi, knowing that Hu Mazi definitely wanted to go back to Dongxiang County to fool around with women.
