Celestial Refining Divine Scripture-Chapter 295 - 293: Irrefutable Evidence of Collusion

Xu Yang turned around and looked.

There were two tall figures standing before the manor!

Helan Xing, Wuo Chengfeng!

The top two prodigies among the top five of the Ten Blood Generals!

Both were at the Middle Stage of the Myriad Phenomena Realm!

But with just one glance, Xu Yang sensed that the auras of these two far surpassed Helan Liuhuo—their true combat power absolutely reached the Late Stage of the Myriad Manifestation Realm!

If all went as expected, in just three to five years, they'd be among the most elite experts of the Barbarian Race—guarding territories, leading divisions, or occupying important positions at the royal court!

"Hmph!"

Xu Yang let out a cold snort, face dark as iron. "What's it got to do with you?"

The Ten Blood Generals were mostly rivals anyway. Although Helan Liuhuo's strength didn't compare to Helan Xing and Wuo Chengfeng, this attitude was perfectly normal.

As expected, Helan Xing let out a disdainful laugh, not suspecting Xu Yang's identity in the slightest.

"You've already fallen so far as to run back here—where's your shame?"

Helan Liuhuo clenched his fist, glaring furiously.

Wuo Chengfeng said coolly, "Enough, let's not waste time!"

Hearing this, Xu Yang frowned and asked, "What are you guys here for?"

"To kill someone. Are you coming?"

Helan Xing mocked him.

"Who're you going to kill?"

Xu Yang was shocked and suspicious inside.

For both Helan Xing and Wuo Chengfeng to appear—who could it be?

"It's related to Xu Yang!"

"If we catch them, maybe we can lure Xu Yang out." Helan Xing's eyes were chillingly cold.

"Xu Yang?"

Xu Yang's pupils contracted. A fierce glint flared in his eyes as he grinned viciously. "Just what I want!"

Inside, stormy waves were already surging!

Related to me?

Enough to draw me out?

Who could it be?

No matter how hard he thought, he couldn't figure it out.

The Zhang Family was deep in Qingzhou—unless the Barbarian Race conquered Qingzhou!

The Bai Family went without saying.

Su Yun had already secretly headed to Central Province.

"By the way, who the hell brought you back?" Helan Xing asked offhandedly.

Xu Yang quickly stifled his inner suspicions and replied in a muffled voice, "Some bastard named Huangfu Qing!"

"Wuo Yaofeng is dead, too."

"Wuo Yaofeng…" Wuo Chengfeng frowned slightly.

He was a Martial Artist of the Kunwu Division, and Wuo Yaofeng was one of Kunwu's greats!

Hearing about Wuo Yaofeng's death, he couldn't help feeling a ripple inside.

"Huangfu Qing?"

"So, it was him. No wonder you lost. The fact you escaped is impressive!" Helan Xing was shocked, then sneered, "That guy's the top Marquis Wu in the Daqian Martial Marquis Hall!"

"What? He's the top prodigy of the Marquis Wu Hall? That means he's Daqian's number one!"

Xu Yang put on a look of utter astonishment.

"Pretty much!"

"But Daqian is vast and full of hidden dragons—even if he's not first, he's one of the top three."

"Even if I fought him, I couldn't guarantee a win!" Helan Xing said gravely.

Xu Yang remained silent.

Clearly, this was all just bluster.

Letting Huangfu Qing take the blame was actually pretty fitting.

Anyway, that guy—even if he was still in Qingzhou, was probably lying low somewhere nursing his wounds, not daring to show himself easily!

"If I get the chance, I'll kill him myself!" Wuo Chengfeng said coldly.

"So, who exactly are you after?" Xu Yang couldn't resist asking.

"You'll know soon enough."

"With your current state…get some rest and recover. We leave in half a day!" Helan Xing examined Xu Yang as he spoke.

Xu Yang nodded silently.

Once inside the City Lord's manor, he made an excuse to take his leave in order to "heal," found an empty room, and sat down cross-legged.

"Helan Xing, Wuo Chengfeng!"

"They said they're here to catch someone. Since they've come, they probably want to gather more powerful experts!"

"Damn it, who is it?"

Xu Yang couldn't help rubbing his brows.

The worst part was Helan Xing wouldn't say—so secretive, he could only wait until they departed.

After setting out…

Xu Yang took a deep breath, calming himself and muttering, "I'll just have to play it by ear. If this really has much to do with me, escaping will be my only concern."

After all, this place was now Barbarian territory!

Experts everywhere!

If his identity was exposed, countless experts would swarm in to kill him!

"Teacher, if anything goes wrong, I'll have to trouble you to act," Xu Yang muttered softly.

"Don't worry."

"I can't promise anything else, but getting you out won't be a problem." Gu Jun gave a faint smile.

Xu Yang's heart eased a little.

With Gu Jun here, there was always a safety net!

Soon after, he closed his eyes to rest and adjust his condition.

Half a day later.

A guard came to notify him.

Xu Yang's expression turned stern as he pushed the door open and walked out.

Outside the City Lord's manor—

Aside from Helan Xing and Wuo Chengfeng, there were also five more Barbarian elite experts!

All of them were at the Late Stage of the Myriad Manifestation Realm!

Such a battle array made Xu Yang secretly click his tongue!

"Just waiting for you."

When she saw Xu Yang, Helan Xing waved her hand. "Let's go, set out!"

The group soared into the sky, heading northeast at full speed.

This direction led away from Qingzhou, deep into the eastern heart of the Northern Territory!

Far from the Desolate Fortress.

But this side was the eastern flank of the Barbaric Mountain Range!

The western side of the Barbaric Mountain Range was known both for being ideal for trials and extremely dangerous!

The eastern side, though not bad, was fairly barren in comparison, almost uninhabited; few would come here.

The group sped along for two hours.

When the outline of the Barbaric Mountain Range appeared ahead, Xu Yang thought, as expected.

So it really is the eastern side of the Barbaric Mountain Range!

Nearing the base of the mountains, the party descended from the sky.

Swoosh!

Two figures flashed out from the dense forest.

Dressed in black, hoods concealing their faces—impossible to see their features!

But judging by their build, they were definitely people of Daqian!

Xu Yang's heart gave a jolt.

"Helan Xing, who are those people?" The five experts from Hammer City frowned tightly, extremely on guard.

"Relax—they're our own."

Helan Xing smiled mysteriously and stepped up to greet them.

"How's the situation?" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"You were too slow—we've already caught two people and pinpointed the general location!" the black-robed leader said coldly.

Helan Xing's eyes turned cold. "My coming was already giving you enough face."

Standing at the back, Xu Yang quietly cast a glance at the black-robed leader, then slowly lowered his head—a chilling glint flashing through his eyes!

Celestial Travelers' Commerce Association!

These two figures in black were with the Celestial Travelers' Commerce Association.

So they really were colluding with the Barbarian Race!

What was once suspicion and conjecture, Xu Yang could now confirm completely!

"Didn't expect to find evidence so quickly!"

"These maniacs… do they really think Daqian is powerless?"

Xu Yang frowned deeply, unable to comprehend it!

"Kid, unless this Celestial Travelers' Commerce Association has a reason to be at odds with Daqian!" Gu Jun suddenly warned him.

A violent ripple surged through Xu Yang's heart.

A must to be at odds with Daqian?

Who could they be?

Xu Yang couldn't figure it out for now.

But that wasn't the most important thing at the moment.

Although he couldn't see the leader's face, Xu Yang recognized his voice instantly—familiar enough to place him at once.

The remnant of the Cyan Gang Sect!

Once a remnant sheltered by the Celestial Travelers' Commerce Association!

After Zhao Mushen returned, she went looking for him, but he didn't seem too interested in submitting to Xu Yang.

He hadn't forced it at the time either!

With Zhao Mushen and Lv Xiu, that was enough.

Now, after identifying them, a sense of foreboding rippled in Xu Yang's heart!

"Who did you capture?" Helan Xing asked.

"Zhao Mushen and his wife!"

"Zhao Mushen?"

Helan Xing frowned and looked at the black-robed man in confusion. "Who are they?"
