God Slayer Chronicles 62 A Breadcrumb Trail

Swoosh!

With a thunderous bang, Zhou Zhong went flying not the side of a small mountain over half a mile away! It was so fast he didn't even have time to scream!

"Dear girl, stand up."

The voice was that of a woman. She had grey hair and experienced eyes.

It was the exact same woman that had inspected the two dead bodies of the Feng brothers!

She took the girl by the hand, helping her up and stroking her hair gently.

"That brute won't be getting up for a long time." A vicious light appeared in her eyes.

"Thank you, senior." Rou Xie whimpered, clinging tightly to her robes.

"Girl, I need you to focus now. I'm following someone here, but I for some reason I can't detect them properly. It's like I'm tacking a cloud of smoke, but every time I reach for it, it simply vanishes!" The grey-haired woman had a look of frustration on her brows.

"The breadcrumb trail led me here. Who was here girl, before, for it belongs to none of those that were here currently? Dead or alive."

The girl looked about clearly still in shock, shaking her head, confused and disorientated. She was visibly thinking hard, "…err, it, it was, Liu Bei. Yes, Liu Bei"

"Liu Bei, as in the Liu Family?" The grey-haired woman's eyebrow started to raise; her nose twitched.

"Yes, one and the same." Rou Xie looked up, her eyes gentle and soft.

The grey-haired woman started to nod, taking a deep sigh. This was, indeed, troublesome. But it made a lot of sense.

"That Liu Bei must be one of Duke Liu Dong's sons. Duke Liu is head of the Divine Justice Bureau, they specifically hunt and butcher those that cultivate evil karma… no wonder the Feng brothers were slain." The old lady started to nod; she had to report back about this. She didn't want to start a feud with the Sabre of Justice and her master without conformation.

"What is your name, my dear?" She looked into Rou Xie's soft, gentle eyes, holding her head in her wrinkled hands, wondering what her words would be.

"My name? It's Rou Xie, of Elemental –"

Chick!

Before she finished speaking there was a loud crack, the hands that were soft and wrinkled, kind and homely gripped down hard, twisting furiously until Rou Xie's chin was above the middle of her back.

"Such a shame, so pretty and yet such a weak name."

Standing up the evil-looking woman waved her hand, Rou Xie's body burst into bright purple flames!

On the other side of the woods, Sha Ku was sitting against a tree, his hands holding an opened handkerchief, within that hankie was a frosty blue looking mushroom.

His eyes were transfixed on the thing, even looking at it made Sha Ku feel like he was in a heavenly place.

Taking a deep breath, he folded up the cloth which had started to get colder and colder, placing it in his spatial ring.

"Now I only need an Ultra Yang ingredient, and I'll be able to refine both my bloodlines. At that point, I'll be able to easily create nine-nine divine Ying-Yang rivers and advance into the Qi Sea realm." Sha Ku had a satisfied smile on his face.

"That may have to wait sometime though, finding the Ice Phoenix Fungus was already enough of a miracle, let alone an Ultra Yang Ingredient such as a Jiao's horn or a Nine-Fall Ruby Sunflower… for now, I have my Undying Body cultivation, it's arguably as important, or even more so. Even in the lower realms." Sha Ku looked at his left index finger; a cold look entered his eyes.

CRACK!

"GRRRR!" He gritted his teeth, looking at his finger that was bent sideways, the bone was piercing out of the skin, like a lance through a man's body!

Slowly though it started to change, the finger began to mend itself before Sha Ku's very eyes. It even grew a bit!

The bone re-entered his flesh, conjoining with its other half.

The flesh melded together, leaving no trace of damage behind.

A smile emerged on his face.

"Shing!"

His smile vanished, a flash appeared in the corner of his eye, before he could react, there was a curved blade softly resting on his jugular.

There was only one reaction Sha Ku could have had – "Impressive." A smile lit upon his face, a beast's fire lit in his eyes!
