Murong Xue could see that he was on his guard and she involuntarily snorted coldly. “Don’t worry, I won’t act against you. After all, you did help me out earlier.”
Only now did Lin Feng laugh. He spoke, “We can be considered to have undergone a trial of life and death together. If you truly want to thank me, why don’t you give the treasures in your hand to me?”
Murong Xue snorted, “Why don’t you go to hell?”
Lin Feng naturally knew that it was impossible for Murong Xue to give him such a valuable treasure. He was merely teasing her. He glanced at the treasure in her hand and noticed that they were radiating an icy aura. They were silver in color and thin as hair.
“What treasure is that?” Lin Feng asked.
“These are known as the Frost Ice Divine Needles. They were forged from a type of stone known as the Frostice Stone that only exists in places of extreme coldness. After that, a formation made up of runic words was engraved onto them. Upon infusing them with true qi, they can be controlled easily and kill people through the air,” Murong Xue explained.
Lin Feng guessed that this Murong Xue would surely have an extraordinary identity. If not, how could she have a treasure like this given her young age?
Although Lin Feng had some speculations about Murong Xue’s identity, he wasn’t interested to find out more. He was planning to leave in case Murong Xue suddenly turned on him. If Murong Xue used her needles on him, things would be extremely troublesome.
Upon seeing that Lin Feng was about to leave, Murong Xue hurriedly spoke, “Don’t leave so quickly. I have a huge transaction here waiting for you.”
“Huh? A huge transaction?” Lin Feng stopped, staring at Murong Xue in puzzlement.
“Naturally. I can tell that your cultivation isn’t bad; hence, I plan to let you join me in this. With two people, we can help each other if the need arises,” Murong Xue spoke.
“What’s the transaction? You might as well tell me.”
“We shouldn’t stay here for long. Let’s leave here before we talk,” Murong Xue replied.
Lin Feng nodded and left together with Murong Xue.

After Sun Kui and the others fled, they came to a ravine. Within it, about a hundred people were currently resting.
“Young master, this subordinate has returned.” Sun Kui quickly moved over and bowed courteously to a guy.
This young master looked to be about twenty in age. He was extremely handsome, but his long and narrow eyes caused him to emit a sinister aura and made people feel very uncomfortable around him.
This man is named Yuwen Yunfeng. He was a grandson of one of the grand elders in the Soul Devouring Hall. His status was extremely esteemed there.
“Why are you guys in such a pathetic state?” Upon seeing the miserable state Sun Kui was in, Yuwen Yunfeng couldn’t help but frown.
Sun Kui hurriedly spoke, “Young master, we encountered Murong Xue of Skysaint City. I initially wanted to capture her, but I didn’t expect her to have a treasure of such power. Also, there was a brat helping her at the side. This caused us to lose quite a few brothers. Hence, this subordinate decided to rush back and report this to young master.”
“Murong Xue?” Yuwen Yunfeng’s eyes gleamed with a sinister light. “Back then, the Skysaint City and the other nine ancient cities joined forces and acted against our Soul Devouring Hall, almost completely annihilating us. I didn’t expect that the granddaughter of the Skysaint City Lord would come to the Desolate Forest today. We must capture her for sure. After that, when we bring her back to our sect, we would surely achieve huge merits.”
“Yes, young master.”
This group of a hundred people began to move out. They went to the place where Sun Kui and Murong Xue had fought earlier, but Murong Xue and Lin Feng had long since left the area.
“They won’t be able to move too far. Split up and search!”
“Yes!”
The cultivators from the Soul Devouring Hall split up and searched for Lin Feng and Murong Xue’s location. However, there seemed to be no traces at all.
Yuwen Yunfeng’s expression turned extremely ugly. “Damn, seems like that woman Murong Xue has managed to flee. We have missed this chance to capture her, and it wouldn’t be so easy if we wish to capture her again in the future.”
