Chapter 50: Another Layer of Shadow (1/2)
Now that it was clear what had happened, the outraged Tong Hao sped off in the direction in which the Ghost sect disciple had fled
“Dammit! There’s only one of him, yet he dared to act so brazenly! Let’s chase hi Ye!”
It see next to hirief, they followed along after Tong Hao
“Don’t chase hi cried “Get back here, all of you!”
Tong Hao turned around, and for the first ti Ye was just cut down right in front of us Are we really going to sit back and do nothing?!”
“You won’t be able to catch up,” Pan Tao interjected “The Ghost sect disciples are experts in escaping and hiding They can travel like ghosts Even if An Ying and I were to chase after hiuys”
Frustrated, An Ying said “First things first Let’s give Huang Ye a proper burial”
Only by disguising himself with the robes of the Grayvale sect did the Ghost sect disciple successfully deceive them all
If it weren’t for Nie Tian, who had memorized the faces of everyone from the Grayvale sect, and thus immediately attacked the murderous imposter, two people would have been killed instead of just one
As the leader, An Ying’s failure to notice so Ye’s death, hence she bla Hao and the other two “Focus on burying Huang Ye, not on rushi+ng off carelessly You don’t know the Ghost sect well enough If you were to chase after hiet separated from us, I fear that”
Apparently, he didn’t want Tong Hao and the other two to follow Huang Ye into death
Nie Tian, face grim but calm, looked off in the direction the Ghost sect disciple had appeared from “The people from the Grayvale sect were probably killed over there,” he said, “where that young man came fro the Grayvale sect’s robes”
“How about we go take a look?” Nie Tian proposed
Pan Tao’s expression flickered, and then he nodded Looking at An Ying, he said, “Nie Tian and I will go take a look Whatever we find, we’ll head back soon There probably aren’t any more disciples from the Ghost sect in the vicinity Otherwise, he wouldn’t have attacked us alone”
An Ying pondered the situation for a ht But be careful!”
“Okay, on’t go too far,” Pan Tao proroup and headed in the direction that the Ghost sect disciple had co Miao said, “Nie Tian is actually quite nice At first we all thought he didn’t care about anything but eating, but he ed to detect the smallest anomalies when the crucial moment arrived Without him, we probably would have been killed back e encountered the Lurker Lizard”
Then she looked over at Guo Qi “And he just saved Guo Qi’s life”
Guo Qi bowed his head in eed hi muttered and nodded “His perception is indeed better than all of ours This is undeniable If it weren’t for his warning, that Ghost sect disciple could have killed one or two ht decision to not give hi Miao “He has truly helped us”
The rest of them all had a shameful look on their faces It appeared only then did they have a fair opinion of Nie Tian
Even as they discussed Nie Tian, he was carefully searching the area where the Ghost sect disciple had come from
Because the Ghost sect disciple deliberately created the false impression that he had been blood-soaked froroup left a lot of fresh blood on the ground
By tracking that blood, Nie Tian and Pan Tao effortlessly found the place where the battle had taken place
The battlefield was in a snowy valley, about five hundred roup Within that valley lay two trial takers froic deaths
One of the woman around fourteen or fifteen years old, as completely naked
As soon as Pan Tao laid eyes on the scene, his face turned very grim and cold “She must have been raped by that Ghost sect disciple before she was killed”
A dour gleaaze “These guys from the Ghost sect all deserve to die!”
“Their thumbs have also been chopped off It’s clearly the Ghost sect people’s doing” Pan Tao sighed and went forward, digging out a pit in the ice and burying the two corpses
