”Looks like I need to personally visit Devouring Sky Village!” Ye Tianchen muttered to himself as he looked at the moonlight.

Ye Tianchen indeed did not expect that the power of Devouring Sky Village would be so strong. They only sent out five villagers, each of whom had a cultivation realm that wasn’t low. If it weren’t for his cultivation realm being at Mid-stage Martial Saint, enough to sweep through the three major Ancient Martial Worlds, it would truly have been difficult to eliminate these five assassins swiftly. Devouring Sky Village has its own cultivation method, which seems not to be a village handed down from ancient times, but rather obtained a cultivation skill by accident and only started cultivating, rising in the past few hundred years. Back then, Devouring Sky Village merely wanted Desolate Stone Village to submit and provide them with rich food. They hadn’t thought of bloodwashing Desolate Stone Village because, comparatively, having Desolate Stone Village provide large quantities of rich food every ten years was more beneficial than bloodwashing it. Moreover, at that time, people of Devouring Sky Village had not achieved great success in their cultivation skills, and Desolate Stone Village was also guarded by Shi Hu, so Devouring Sky Village dared not act recklessly.

However, hundreds of years have passed, and during this time, people of Devouring Sky Village have been continuously cultivating, naturally growing stronger and more ambitious. Previously, they merely had Desolate Stone Village people provide them with rich food and couldn’t interfere in everything about Desolate Stone Village, and most villagers remained free. But as Devouring Sky Village grew stronger, their ambition also expanded, wanting to fully enslave Desolate Stone Village’s villagers to make them work like slaves for them. Moreover, there’s a mysterious and powerful existence behind them, which seems to have learned about some bloodline secrets of Desolate Stone Village villagers and wants to conduct cruel research and use them for its own benefit!

Ye Tianchen did not immediately take action, but instead waited. He was still waiting for Hu Gao’s return, believing that with Hu Gao’s strength, he would certainly return safely. After all, he still had the Martial Saint Treasure Jade Rope. Even if he couldn’t defeat the mysterious existence behind Devouring Sky Village, he should still be able to retreat safely.

Three days later at noon, Hu Gao really returned, albeit a bit in disarray. An arrow had pierced through his entire left arm on the left shoulder, with blood continuously flowing. Fortunately, it wasn’t poisoned, otherwise, Hu Gao wouldn’t have been able to return alive. After Ye Tianchen learned the news of Hu Gao’s return, he instantly appeared at the entrance of Desolate Stone Village. Upon seeing Hu Gao, he frowned because he found that Hu Gao not only had an arrow wound but his Martial Arts True Qi within was also greatly depleted, clearly after experiencing a life-and-death battle. If it wasn’t for the protection and power of the Jade Rope, Hu Gao would have likely been in a situation of nine deaths and one life.

Ye Tianchen didn’t immediately ask anything, but instead infused Hu Gao with a strong surge of Martial Arts True Qi, while Zhang Ruotong beside him used her special power to heal Hu Gao’s wounds. When the arrow was pulled out of Hu Gao’s left arm, the blood suddenly gushed out wildly. Ye Tianchen hurriedly used a surge of Martial Arts True Qi to stop the bleeding, and Shi Hubo and others brought out the best external medicine from the village to apply to Hu Gao. About an hour later, Hu Gao’s face looked much better and wasn’t as pale anymore!

”Wow, so many people surround me, the aura is really too strong, can’t handle it!” Once Hu Gao regained vitality, he started talking nonsense.

”You brat don’t move recklessly, the internal injury isn’t too severe, and the arrow in your left arm has been pulled out, rest for ten days to half a month and you’ll be healed!” Ye Tianchen glanced at Hu Gao and said.

Hu Gao looked around at the people, stunned a bit, probably not expecting that when he was injured, so many people would be worried and concerned for him. You know, his reputation in the three major Ancient Martial Worlds wouldn’t be better than Tian Boguang, although not to the extent of everyone shouting to beat him when he passes through the street, but still, no one was friends with Hu Gao, no one cared for or worried about him, even if he had a grandfather, he was an unreliable grandfather, which for Hu Gao, was somewhat absurd.

”Boss, Devouring Sky Village is no simple matter, I almost lost my life this time!” Hu Gao no longer had a don’t-care demeanor, instead seriously said.

”Hmm, this isn’t the place to talk, let’s go inside!” Ye Tianchen glanced outside of Desolate Stone Village, always feeling that this village seemed to be watched by someone, which indeed surprised him. Living at the foot of Buddhist Sacred Land, there were people daring to covet, it seems Earth’s three major Ancient Martial Worlds are really going to be chaotic, this Martial Arts World indeed might experience tumultuous winds again!

Bringing Hu Gao back to Desolate Stone Village, Ye Tianchen, Shi Hubo, Shuanger, Zhang Ruotong, Dongfang Meng, a total of six people entered a secret chamber, only then did Ye Tianchen feel relieved to let them talk. The feeling of being spied by powerful and mysterious forces was really unpleasant, yet couldn’t find where it was, indicating the person was very strong, Ye Tianchen dared not ignore it, as this concerned the life and death of the entire Desolate Stone Village.

”Brother Hu Gao, why did you go for three days once you left?” Shi Hubo asked anxiously.

”Actually, it only took me one day to reach Devouring Sky Village. There is a border between Song Mountain Ancient Martial World and Heavenly Mountain Ancient Martial World, so it’s not very far. However, Devouring Sky Village is simply not like a village but resembles a castle, heavily guarded. Every villager inside is cultivating, where are there villagers in appearance? I spared no effort in my mind, eventually using my absolute personal charm to make a woman in Devouring Sky Village fall in love with me, and that’s how I smoothly entered Devouring Sky Village...” Hu Gao initially spoke earnestly but then became unreliable and absurd, leaving people speechless.

Slap!

Ye Tianchen slapped Hu Gao on the head and said irritably, ”I knew you went girl-chasing, talk about the important part!”

”Ouch, boss, I told you to be gentle, I’m a wounded man who needs proper rest!” Hu Gao rubbed his head and said.

It turned out that as soon as Hu Gao entered the Devouring Sky Village, he was attacked. The woman who brought Hu Gao into the village wasn’t attracted by his personal charm; it was because as soon as Hu Gao reached the outskirts of the village, he had already been spotted by its people. To ensure Hu Gao wouldn’t escape, they deliberately sent out a beautiful woman to lure him into the village. Hu Gao fell for it, claiming it was due to his own charm – how bold of him!

After being tricked, Hu Gao naturally faced an assassination attempt. However, given Hu Gao’s cultivation realm, he was not weak and managed to kill many of the village’s assassins. When several of the village’s powerful adversaries emerged, Hu Gao sensed something was amiss. He hadn’t anticipated how strong these villagers would be. They weren’t just villagers; they were assassins, martial artists. With no choice but to protect his life, Hu Gao could only flee quickly. Little did he know that the villagers relentlessly chased him, so he fought as he fled.

But just as Hu Gao was about to dash out of the village, an arrow light shot toward him, nearly piercing his skull. Startled, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. The power of this arrow was formidable; if hit, it would obliterate his form and smash his divine thought to pieces.

Swish!

After narrowly dodging the first arrow, another arrow light came shooting toward him. Infuriated, Hu Gao realized these people were aiming to kill him. He wasn’t one to be trifled with, and immediately summoned his Jade Rope. The Jade Rope unleashed a powerful force, smashing the incoming arrow light to pieces!

Swish!

The third arrow light shot forth, and Hu Gao realized the strength behind it. If hit, it would certainly be fatal. He quickly dodged, evading the third arrow.

Bang!

With a loud crash, Hu Gao turned to look behind him, stunned. The third arrow he had dodged struck a distant peak, shattering it completely. The force required to achieve this was enormous. The divine power contained within the arrow must be incredibly powerful. If he were hit, death would be certain!

Caw!

Suddenly, a bird’s cry echoed, as though a fierce creature had emerged. Alarmed, Hu Gao retreated swiftly. He knew that with his strength alone, it was impossible to fight the villagers. His only option now was to run for his life. However, a massive Fierce Eagle soared out of the Village, as large as a millstone, with a pair of eyes filled with malice. Standing atop the bird was a child about ten years old, holding a translucent bow seemingly carved from beautiful jade. The bow exuded a mysterious and powerful aura, clearly an extraordinary treasure, potentially even surpassing Hu Gao’s Jade Rope in might.

”What? Just a child over ten years old?” Shi Hubo snapped back to reality, asking in disbelief.

”That child is very powerful, and the bow is not simple!” Tianshuang’er frowned and said.

”There’s no mistake; I saw it clearly. Sitting on the Fierce Eagle, holding the jade bow, was a child around ten. His eyes carried malice unfit for his age, and every arrow aimed for my head!” Hu Gao said calmly.

”It seems that because of such a prodigy arising from Devouring Sky Village, at just over ten years old, he can wield a powerful treasure. And behind this village lies a mysterious entity allowing them to act with such impunity. I will personally investigate who’s manipulating Devouring Sky Village from the shadows, intending to massacre Desolate Stone Village!” Ye Tianchen said with murder in his eyes. (To be continued.
