My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 188 Killing Intent and the Oriole in Disguise
Shen Changchuan was in a bad mood.

He did not expect,
How long has it been?
They assumed that the Shen family had indeed arrived and had their eyes on Dawancun.

Although this can only be considered an undeserved misfortune for him.

Those members of the Shen family seemed to have come here by chance because of their pursuit of Shen Chong, and upon discovering the prosperity of Dawan Village, they began to have designs on it.
It was a complete accident.
But whatever the reason
The threat posed by their existence is real!

"If Si Houqing hadn't secretly informed me, I wouldn't have known you existed. It seems we need to plant some spies in the village. We can't afford to be so passive next time."

"However, those are things for later. Let's deal with you first!"

A cold glint flashed in Shen Changchuan's eyes.

His figure strode out.

It flashed by like a ghost, disappearing into the vast rain in the blink of an eye.

Faced with the schemes of those who seemed to be under the First Madam's command,
Shen Changchuan didn't actually have any good solutions.

Fortunately,

Reality is not a female-oriented palace intrigue novel.

He didn't need to scheme and plot against them and their wives to preserve his legacy.

All he needs to do is deal with the people who caused the problem.

Neat.

In the wilderness,

It's perfectly reasonable for someone to die.

They were even killed by Shen Chong, who was technically his brother.

It is also very reasonable.
Thick, mountain-like dark clouds covered the sky.
A torrential downpour enveloped the land.

In the dense forest with towering ancient trees,

Several figures rose and fell, like gray arrows, swiftly darting through the rainforest.

The dense rain from the sky and the leeches that were propelled from the surrounding trees were all torn apart and pulverized by the sharp magical wind.

During the rainy season, the endless leeches in the mountains pose a deadly threat to ordinary Qi Refining cultivators.

But for cultivators at the eighth or ninth level of cultivation,
That's all there is to it.

Half an hour later,

The group ran for several miles, crossed a valley, and the leader stopped temporarily on a tree trunk.

Looking at the slippery leeches frantically crawling towards me at my feet,
The man's face showed disgust.

With a surge of magical power,
The surrounding leeches were all shattered into dust.

The magical fluctuations in the vicinity undoubtedly attracted even more leeches, which fell down in a flurry, almost like rain.

This scene,
This made the leader's expression even more unpleasant.

Then gently place it on the cushion,
The figure leaped into the air.

Surrounded by a magical shield, he shot straight into the sky, his figure rising several dozen feet to the top of the canopy of a giant ancient tree.

The leader stood atop the tree canopy.

All around was a raging storm.

At least we no longer have to watch those disgusting, wriggling leeches fall from all directions from the sky.

at the same time,

Shen Zeyu and the others below also rushed up.

Standing atop the treetop, slightly out of breath, I took a short rest.

"Zeyu, how is it?"

"The Blood-Tracking Talisman is still active, probably several dozen miles away."

"Damn it! That brat is too fast! If we can catch him this time, we'll definitely break both his legs first!"

"Has he discovered us and is trying to lure us into a trap?"

"It's possible. They must be keeping us at arm's length. Otherwise, we've chased them for almost two hundred miles, how could we still be only a few dozen miles apart?"

"That makes sense. It was a similar situation last time. I went to hunt him down, but I fell into his trap and almost got killed there."

"What should we do then? Should we just give up chasing them?"

"No, we finally caught that kid red-handed this time. If we fail to achieve our goal completely this time, it will take who knows how long to find him again. Besides, we probably don't have that much time left." They ran at full speed for over two hundred miles through the torrential rain.

At the same time, one must constantly maintain a magical shield to repel the leeches that roam the mountains and forests.

Even those who had reached the eighth or ninth level of the realm couldn't help but feel somewhat strained.

However, given the current situation...
But that also forced them to continue pursuing it.

"We should keep chasing him, but we can't let that kid keep us hanging like this any longer."

"Do you know where this direction leads, and what that kid's goal is?"

"This direction seems to be towards Wujiaji!"

"Wujiaji, hasn't that place been sealed off for more than half a year? What is he doing there?"

"I don't know, but if that kid's destination is indeed Wujia Village, then that's troublesome. The Wu family is a local powerful clan, and it's said that they already have two Nascent Soul Realm cultivators within their ranks, and their younger generation's prodigy has joined the Jade Purity Upper Sect. If they receive their protection, we're afraid we'll have little chance of success."

"Damn it! Quick! Regardless of whether that kid has any connection with the Wu family, we must stop this possibility!"

"Stop him before he gets there!"

The Wu family is nothing compared to the Shen family of Tiannan.
But the problem is,
They're only at the eighth or ninth level of the Nascent Soul realm, not at the Out-of-Body realm!

If the Wu family really protects that kid,
They were almost helpless.

It's not that the Shen family of Tiannan lacks a good reputation.
Rather, their strength is too low to represent the Shen family!

as a last resort,
They don't even have time to rest.
Several people leaped up from the treetop.

Like a cannonball, they burst through the rain and sped off in the direction where Shen Chong had disappeared.

After a short while,

The figures of the group completely disappeared into the vast rain.

Shen Changchuan's figure seemed to emerge from the shadows and quietly appeared on the canopy of the huge ancient tree where they had just been standing.

His gaze followed the direction in which the group had departed.
He couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly.

"Wujiaji?"

What is Shen Chong doing there?

A question flashed through my mind.

But soon he shook his head.

"Forget it, let's not worry about that. I just need to keep up. Hopefully, these people can catch up with Shen Chong. That way, I can safely play the role of the predator from behind."

A cold glint flashed in Shen Changchuan's eyes.
A chilling killing intent flashed by.

No matter how,

Those people must all die!
He said it!
The next moment,

Shen Changchuan's figure vanished into the treetops like a phantom.

The world of underground caves

The interconnected underground caves, like a vast and boundless labyrinth, crisscross and extend for countless miles.

It is precisely because of the existence of this massive underground cavern,
As a result, during the rainy season, the amount of rainfall that was theoretically enough to submerge the entire mountain forest did not actually turn the barren forest into a flooded world.

Inside the vast and deep underground cave,

Shen Tingchu walked slowly forward, his gaze fixed straight ahead.

The sound of rushing floodwaters echoed from all around.

His gaze did not wander to his surroundings.

He stared intently, as if something in front of him had caught his eye.

Ever since that day when I learned about the entrance to the cave from Shen Changchuan,

He had been walking for five days before entering the cave.

He didn't know where he was in the underground cavern or on the surface.

But he knew,

His destination
They should be here soon!
"Stop, Shen Tingchu, perhaps we can cooperate."
