Volume 2: Heavenly Sword Tomb Chapter 64: Dark Pearl

  Three cultivators chasing Jiang Feng, all of whom were in the early stages of foundation building. All three were loose cultivators. The one who recognized Jiang Feng was named Tao Hui. The other two cultivators were named Feng San and Ma Renyi. Feng San and Ma Renyi both called Tao Hui "Big Brother". Generally speaking, whatever happened, they would listen to Tao Hui's words.

  Tao Hui nodded again, confirming what he had just said. The other two cultivators were getting anxious.

  Feng San said: "Tao big brother, since we know it's Jiang Feng, why did we leave? If we left, wouldn't that be a wasted opportunity?"

  "Yes. We are three people after all. Jiang Feng is just one person. His cultivation is the same as ours, why didn't he take him down earlier?" Ma Renshi said with some resentment.

  Tao Hui didn't care about Feng San and Ma Renyi's tone. He said calmly, "This Jiang Feng, being able to come out of the Five Elements Sword Sect, naturally has his own abilities. If we rashly take action, in case we get ourselves involved, that would be a waste of effort."

  Ma Renyi and Feng Sanyi also gradually calmed down after hearing this. They too felt that they had been overly impulsive just now.

  "Brother Tao is right, we were a bit rash. Brother Tao, what do you think we should do? We'll both listen to you," said Ma Renyi.

  "Alright, we'll all listen to you." Feng San also said.

  Tao Hui thought for a moment, then said: "Since Jiang Feng left the Wu Xing Sword Sect that day, there has been no news of him. This time it's possible that only we discovered him. I think why not spread the news of Jiang Feng appearing here and let other cultivators come to fight with us first."

  "What if it falls into someone else's hands?" Feng San said with some concern.

  Tao Hui smiled faintly and said, "This matter can't be spread widely. We only need to lure two cultivators with the same cultivation level as us over here to help us test Jiang Feng. If Jiang Feng loses, facing two cultivators of the same level as us, I have confidence that we three will win. If Jiang Feng wins, then we'll also know how deep his abilities are."

  "That's a good idea, let's do it." Ma Renyi said with sparkling eyes.

  Jiang Feng was still slowly flying towards Tongda County. He had no idea that three cultivators were plotting against him. Nor did he know that the Wuxing Sword Sect had put his appearance on the Tianmen Order, spreading it throughout the cultivation world.

  Tongda County is not big, and the Wan family's house was originally one of the largest households in this area. The house they lived in was naturally one of the best. Plus, Jiang Feng had also inquired about the specific location, so it was easier to find.

  The mansion's gate has been sealed with an official stamp. It seems that this house hasn't been sold yet. After arriving here, Jiang Feng saw the empty and deserted mansion, and he knew that it would be difficult to sell this house for a while. Probably no one would want to buy this house either, after all, dozens of people from the Wan family suddenly disappeared into thin air, which is bound to make people worried.

  Jiang Feng carefully searched the entire mansion of the Wan family, but did not find any suspicious places, nor did he discover where the Wan family members had gone. He also failed to find anything similar to the wooden board in his hand.

  "You think this family's disappearance has something to do with this wooden board?" Jiang Feng asked Lan Wu after not finding anything.

  "I don't know. Maybe they didn't want to live here anymore, so they snuck away quietly. Or maybe they were all killed by thieves." Lan Wu said.

  Jiang Feng looked around and still didn't find anything, so he sat down on a step in the current courtyard. He also took out that piece of wood.

  He applied a bit of force with his hand, and also used some spiritual power. The wooden board started to crack, and soon fell off with many wood shavings. A few seconds later, Jiang Feng was left with only one curved black snake in his hand. In the black snake's mouth, it was still biting a black bead.

  The black snake is made of a kind of black metal, and the bead in its mouth is a yin pearl. The so-called yin pearl is a bead that can gather yin energy. This kind of bead was originally used by cultivators, so it's clear that the person who made the black snake should be a cultivator.

  In addition to the black snake and beads on the periphery, another layer of wood was wrapped around it. It also means that the original owner did not want others to discover the black snake. Jiang Feng was able to discover it because his storage ring had a ghost sword, which was very sensitive to all dark objects.

  "This thing doesn't seem like a treasure, and it's not particularly valuable either. So why is it hidden in the wood, and made into an ordinary screen? Is it a treasure map?" Jiang Feng muttered to himself as he sat there.

  "Have you heard of anything related to a snake with a pearl in its mouth?" Jiang Feng asked Lan Wu.

  Lan Wu couldn't think of anything related to the snake with a pearl in its mouth. She was also too lazy to bother with Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng didn't get an answer, so he just stood there in a daze. But standing here in a daze wasn't going to help him figure out what this snake and pearl were for.

  Before long, night fell. Jiang Feng still sat there, but now he was no longer thinking about the black snake and the pearl. He simply sat there in a daze.

  After the red moon and the curved moon rose, Jiang Feng stared blankly at the moon. Just as he was lost in thought, two figures appeared in the night sky. The two figures rushed towards the courtyard where Jiang Feng was located. After seeing Jiang Feng sitting there, the two people flew down quickly.

  Suddenly, two people fell down, and Jiang Feng also came back to his senses from his daze. Taking a look at the two cultivators, Jiang Feng found that they were not the three cultivators he had seen during the day, but rather two unfamiliar cultivators. Since he didn't recognize them, Jiang Feng didn't plan on paying attention to them either.

  Although it was already dark, the two monks could still see Jiang Feng clearly. After they too had taken a close look at Jiang Feng, joy appeared on their faces.

  "Are you Jiang Feng?" Although they had recognized Jiang Feng, one of them still asked this question.

  Jiang Feng was somewhat curious about how these two people knew him. He nodded and said: "Yes, how do you know me?"

  Having obtained Jiang Feng's acknowledgment, the two Taoists were even more delighted. The same person who had spoken earlier said: "Since Fellow Daoist Jiang has acknowledged us, then please, Fellow Daoist, come with us for a walk."

  "Go for a walk? Where to? I don't know you, why should I go with you? Besides, I'm a decent person, I won't just go with anyone casually." Jiang Feng said.

  "Jiang Daoyou is still quite cooperative, otherwise, we two brothers will have to be impolite."

  Jiang Feng furrowed his brow and said: "You guys have to tell me where we're going, right? If you don't say anything, I won't go with you."

  "Where are we going? Of course, I'll take you to Wu Xing Jian Zong. Where else can we go besides there?"

  When the other party said they would take him to Wuxing Sword Sect, Jiang Feng hastily shook his head and said: "I'm not going, at least not now. If you want to go, you can go by yourselves."

  "Hmph, whether you go or not is no longer up to you to decide." The monk across from him said.

  As soon as the words fell, the two cultivators of the same foundation-building stage as Jiang Feng opposite him made a move towards Jiang Feng. Facing the two flying swords, Jiang Feng, who was sitting on the steps at the door, didn't even move.

  Two flying swords stopped one meter in front of Jiang Feng. No matter how hard the two cultivators tried, the flying swords could not move forward half a step. At this time, Jiang Feng also took out his own Cold Jade Snuff Bottle and threw it at the two cultivators from a distance. The two cultivators felt that something invisible was hitting their heads and simultaneously dodged to one side.

  At that time, Jiang Feng stood up. The tobacco pouch in his hand turned into a jade Ruyi and struck the two monks again.

  Two white lotus flowers fell from the sky, directly knocking the two monks to the ground. They didn't have any chance to resist at all. At this moment, Jiang Feng also looked out of the courtyard with his eyes.

  "Want to leave, have you left?" Jiang Feng muttered to himself. The three people hiding outside the yard were escaping. They ran out of tens of meters and before they could fly up, they saw Jiang Feng blocking their way.

  "Take action." Tao Hui saw that Jiang Feng was blocking the way, and immediately called on Feng San and Ma Renyi to take action.

  Jiang Feng didn't hold back, and with a swing of the jade Ruyi in his hand, Tao Hui and the other two hadn't even had time to get close to Jiang Feng before they were knocked flying. Then three black long swords appeared, pressed against the throats of Tao Hui's trio.
