Chapter 1070: Black Poison Villa
The demon hunting team has already left.
Xiao Yi and Qing Lin each took their own wanted posters and began to read.
After a while, they both shook their heads and smiled.
"What are you laughing at?" they simultaneously asked.
Qing Lin snatched the wanted poster from Xiao Yi's hand, glanced at it, and burst into laughter.
"Xiao Yi, Asura Hall Branch Hall Master, willingly degenerated, collaborates with Black Cloud Academy in wrongdoing."
"Though dignified in appearance, cunning and shameless, cruelly slaughters comrades, fabricates excuses without reservation, now sheltered by the Asura Hall Scarlet Moon City Branch Hall."
"Wanted by Heavenly King Mountain, with a great reward offered."
"Hahahaha."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi, lines forming on his forehead, snatched Qing Lin's wanted poster.
Glancing at it, Xiao Yi sneered.
"Qing Lin, ferocious appearance, extremely cruel methods."
"Already a target for pursuit across major cities, later withdrawing into Black Cloud Academy to survive."
"Wanted by Heavenly King Mountain, with a great reward offered."
"Your wanted poster isn't much better than mine." Xiao Yi glanced at Qing Lin and sneered.
Indeed, the wanted posters featured their appearances and identity descriptions.
However, clearly, the descriptions did not shy away from derogatory language.
Qing Lin sneered, "The reward from Heavenly King Mountain is quite generous."
Xiao Yi nodded, the wanted posters clearly stating that whoever took their heads would receive a great reward from Heavenly King Mountain.
Even Xiao Yi and Qing Lin were tempted by such a reward.
Qing Lin smiled and said, "These two wanted posters make us sound so terrible."
"Coupled with such generous rewards, it seems our days ahead will be difficult."
As Qing Lin spoke, there was no worry on his face, instead, it was filled with anticipation and fighting spirit.
Xiao Yi shook his head, "Let's hope no old men come."
"Old men? No way," Qing Lin said confidently.
"Heavenly King Mountain, honored as the Overlord Force in the Black Cloud Region, is only targeting the two of us, insignificant figures."
"Those old men with high cultivation would not lower themselves to personally deal with us."
"Heh." Xiao Yi smiled, his face full of fighting spirit.
Qing Lin looked at Xiao Yi and said, "What's this? You seem not only unafraid of this wanted poster, but actually hope for those old men to come after you."
Xiao Yi shrugged, "I just think fighting with higher-level martial artists is more fun."
"Fun? Such bold words." Qing Lin sneered.
"Not to mention those old men, don't underestimate the heavenly talents from various forces."
Xiao Yi shook his head and remained silent.
Qing Lin suddenly furrowed his brow, "Something's not right, you kid, you're very ambitious."
"Oh?" Xiao Yi said softly.
"You can't fool me," Qing Lin said in a deep voice, "the fighting spirit in your eyes tells me you only have those high-cultivation martial artists in sight."
"Perhaps your eyes have never been on just the Black Cloud Region."
"Normally, martial artists advance step by step; in your eyes, it seems like an all-at-once achievement, proving you had opponents in your eyes long ago."
"And this opponent is very strong, even forcing you to broaden your vision, to expand your ambition."
"I even think your heart is not only beyond the Black Cloud Region but encompasses the entire Central Region."
"Is that so?" Xiao Yi chuckled softly, neither confirming nor denying.
"Stop pretending to be ignorant." Qing Lin said playfully, "My intuition is accurate."
"Tell me, what kind of enemy do you have that forces you to push yourself so hard?"
"Heh." Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Qing Lin, I find you not only an interesting person but also quite nosy."
"Let's go."
With that, Xiao Yi turned and left.
Qing Lin quickly followed, asking long and short questions.
...
Time gradually passed.
As the wanted posters spread throughout the Black Cloud Region, their days suddenly changed.
As Qing Lin previously said, their days definitely would not be easy.
Just a few days later, in a certain demon beast forest.
Xiao Yi and Qing Lin wore cold expressions.
Surrounded by hundreds of martial artists.
Among them, there were demon hunting teams, wind envoy teams, and many independent martial artists.
Qing Lin glanced at the crowd and said playfully, "I'll only say it once."
"If people don't provoke me, I won't provoke them."
"If people provoke me, I'll repay it a hundredfold."
"Leave now, and I'll pretend nothing happened."
"Leave?" The surrounding martial artists laughed coldly a few times.
"Why not just leave your heads behind, saving us the trouble."
"Courting death." Qing Lin's eyes turned cold.
Xiao Yi also glanced around, but his gaze fixed on the demon hunting teams and other hall martial artists.
"The reward from Heavenly King Mountain isn't easy to claim."
"You are martial artists from various halls, instead of spending this leisure time dealing with us, you might as well hunt more demon beasts."
"The rewards from each hall are much easier to get."
The surrounding demon hunting teams laughed a few times.
"Hall martial artists? Demon hunter, wind master, they're just working for money."
"The rewards from each hall are easy to get, but Heavenly King Mountain's rewards are much more abundant."
The surrounding martial artists' eyes were filled with greed.
The rewards offered by Heavenly King Mountain were indeed generous.
Those rewards included a large number of cultivation items.
For martial artists, cultivation items, cultivation techniques, and martial techniques are most important.
However, they were right that they were not in-service martial artists from each hall, so accepting wanted posters from other forces wasn't impossible.
Of course, the premise was not to violate some basic hall rules of each hall.
And Xiao Yi and Qing Lin, at this moment, were infamous wanted criminals in the Black Cloud Region.
"Xiao Yi, why bother talking to them?" Qing Lin sneered.
"People die for wealth."
Xiao Yi nodded and remained silent.
The battle between both sides was about to erupt.
Suddenly, Xiao Yi and Qing Lin's expressions changed instantly.
"Be careful." The two exchanged glances and simultaneously said in a deep voice.
Almost the moment their words fell.
An overwhelming aura descended from the sky.
An old man came swiftly from the horizon.
Behind the old man were two middle-aged men.
"So strong." Xiao Yi and Qing Lin's faces turned serious at once.
"Heavenly King Mountain wants to issue a warrant for you two young brats?" The old man looked at them coldly, his eyes full of disdain.
Behind the old man, the two middle-aged men shouted coldly, "Black Poison Villa is handling this, unrelated ones should leave immediately."
"Black Poison Villa?" The surrounding martial artists' expressions changed instantly upon hearing this.
Many martial artists looked panicked.
Obviously, the name Black Poison Villa had tremendous deterrent power.
"Black Poison Villa?" Qing Lin furrowed his brow, "I remember now, you're the Manor Master of Black Poison Villa, Black Poison Saint King."
"You have some insight." The old man sneered.
Whoosh... Whoosh... Whoosh...
As the old man's words fell, black aura suddenly rose around.
In a matter of moments, the land within a kilometer radius turned into scorched earth, black as ink.
Everyone stood on the ground as if they were trapped in a dark abyss.
"Poisonous?" Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes.
...
