At night, a cold moon hung high up in the sky. The cold moonlight sprinkled over every nook and cranny of the Sky Fire Martial House. The entire Martial House was quiet.

Suddenly, a blurry shadow appeared under the night sky. With a light flash, it disappeared into the darkness.

"Shan Xian, just as you guessed, that Ye Chenfeng secretly left the Skyfire Martial House."

The reason why Ye Chenfeng could sense the existence of the Dark Spirit Bird was because of his sensitive soul perception. Ever since his brain fused with the mind devouring brain, his soul perception was dozens of times stronger than ordinary people.

"It seems that they are still unwilling to give up. They still want my life." A hint of viciousness appeared in Ye Zichen's eyes as he muttered to himself, "Since that's the case, then I'll have a good time with all of you."

"Whoosh!"

Ye Zichen's body shook slightly, then disappeared into the dense forest once again. He used the Soul Devouring Secret Art and slowly retracted his aura.

"Pah pah pah …"

When the Black Spirit Bird noticed that Ye Chenfeng had suddenly accelerated into the forest, it immediately flapped its wings to continue its pursuit. When it followed Ye Chenfeng to a deep pool in the mountain stream, it suddenly realized that Ye Chenfeng had disappeared.

Unable to detect Ye Zichen's aura, the Dark Spirit Bird hesitated for a moment, then slowly approached the deep pool.

Suddenly, a shocking sword light pierced through the lake, slicing the pond in two. With a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye, it stabbed into the Black Spirit Bird.

"Chi!"

The Dark Spirit Bird's body was hacked into two by Ye Chen's sword force, turning it into a mist of blood, causing it to die on the spot.

"Not good, Little Black is dead."

The instant the Black Spirit Bird died, the person traveling through the Violet Cloud Mountain, Quiet And Steadfast, immediately sensed it.

"That Ye Chenfeng is in the northwest, let's go."

Quiet And Steadfast grabbed Solitary Mountain's arm and transformed into a series of afterimages within the pitch-black forest, quickly making his way towards the location of the Dark Spirit Bird's death.

Roughly a minute later, the two of them arrived at the edge of the pool. At that moment, besides the traces of blood and the lingering sword energy, there was no sign of Ye Chenfeng.

"Damn it, let him run." "Stop!" You Mingdao released a powerful perception that covered the entire area. He did not notice Ye Zichen's presence, and his eyes revealed a horrifying light as he said angrily.

In order to tame the Dark Spirit Bird, You Mingdao had put in a lot of effort. But now, the Dark Spirit Bird had been killed. This made Qian Daobai so angry that his lungs were about to burst.

"How did that kid find out that the Blacksoul Bird was following him?" Quiet And Steadfast said angrily.

Because even You Shan himself didn't know the existence of the Black Spirit Bird.

"We've underestimated that brat. He's not simple at all. Now that Little Black is gone, it will be difficult for us to kill him." You Ming said with a gloomy face.

"Uncle-master Mingdao, we have to think of a way to kill him. We can't let him grow, or else he'll bring us endless trouble."

The reason why You Shan wanted to kill Ye Chenfeng was not only because he was ashamed of him, but more importantly, he could smell danger from Ye Chenfeng's body.

"Let's go to the foot of the Violet Cloud Mountain. We might be able to stop him there." With that, the two of them disappeared into the night.

Half an hour after the two of them left, ripples appeared in the cold water. Ye Chenfeng, who had been hiding in the lake all this time, revealed his head.

As time passed, gentle rays of sunlight appeared on the horizon. It was daybreak.

The two of them, who had been hiding at the foot of the Violet Cloud Mountain for the entire night, did not find any trace of Ye Chenfeng. This let them know that their plan to ambush Ye Chenfeng had failed.

"Senior uncle Mingdao, should we inform the others and ask them to help us expand our range to kill Ye Chenfeng?" You Shan said with unwillingness in his heart.

"Shan Xian, before we can confirm whether or not the disappearance of the Heaven Slaughter Devil Immortal is real, we cannot kill him in public. Otherwise, we will be caught red-handed and reported to the Sky Fire Sect. We are the sinners." You Ming said with a gloomy face.

"Then what do we do, let him slip away right under our noses?" You Shan said with unwillingness in his heart.

"Shan Xian, if I remember correctly, many of the border cities around the Kingdom of Zi Jin are controlled by the Shentu Clan." Quiet And Steadfast said.

"Senior Master Ming Dao, you want the Shentu Clan to help us stop Ye Chenfeng?" You Shan's eyes lit up as he spoke.

"That's right, we can't openly kill him, but the Shentu Clan can. Although I don't know where they are preparing to escape to, he has a high chance of buying a mount, so contacting the Shentu Clan to kill him is the best choice." Quiet And Steadfast nodded and said.

"Alright, I'll contact Shentu Lin right now and ask him to notify the Shentu Clan and help us kill Ye Chenfeng."

With that, he took out the communication bead and contacted Shentu Lin.

… ….

Beiling City was the largest city on the northwest border of the Kingdom of Zi Jin. However, due to its special location, the true master of the Beiling City was not the Kingdom of Zi Jin, but the Shentu Clan.

Normally, the city gates of North Ridge City would open, and the bustling flow of people would pass through. It was bustling and bustling.

However, the security of the entire North Ridge City was now very tight. Anyone who entered or left the city had to be under strict scrutiny by the city guards.

"Damn it, what's going on with Northmont City? Why is it suddenly so strict?"

One of the merchants who frequently went into and out of the Northern Ridge City cursed. In order to enter the city, he had to wait for a few hours for an inspection and the sky was about to turn dark.

"I heard that the Shentu Clan seems to be after people, which is why the people of North Ridge City are so worried." Another rich armored merchant said.

"A wanted person? I wonder what kind of person offended the Shentu Clan to cause such a ruckus? "

"Alright, the matter of the Shentu Clan is not something that we can handle. We should hurry up and deliver the goods into the city."

"Bounty?"

Hearing the conversation between the two merchants, a skinny man with a slightly sallow face revealed a strange smile.

This thin man was none other than Ye Chenfeng, who had quietly left the Violet Cloud Mountain and was disguised as a man.
