Chapter 285: Familiar Voice

“Brat, how far more do we have to travel?” Even though the two of them were moving very rapidly through the forest, Mister Bu’s voice rang clearly in Shang Xia’s ears.

“I have no idea.” Shang Xia muttered. His voice didn’t seem strained at all as he ran through the forest alongside Mister Bu.

A frown formed on Mister Bu’s face. “Didn’t the bird tell you how far we have to travel?”

With a strange look on his face, Shang Xia replied, “Do I look like I speak bird? I can only communicate with Yan Ni’er in basic terms… Do you think she can talk to me like a normal human or something?”

“Why didn’t you say so earlier?!” Mister Bu snorted. “This old man needs to return to the Changfeng City before night falls… You better arrange it properly…” Pausing for a moment, he continued, “Where in the world is your bird planning to go anyway? If we’re only going there to take a look, I’ll head over there myself. You can wait for me here. I move faster alone anyway.”

Mister Bu was a Martial Extermination Realm cultivator at the end of the day. He could fly through the air and move a lot faster than if he had to wait for Shang Xia.

“That’s not a good idea. There’s more than one Martial Extermination Realm expert there! If you fly through the air, they’ll notice you before you get close!” Shang Xia muttered.

“WHAT?” Mister Bu’s expression changed instantly. His figure faltered unsteadily and growled, “What are you playing at you little brat? Are you crazy? You’re trying to spy on Martial Extermination Realm experts at the Martial Intent Realm… Are you tired of living?”

Shang Xia chuckled in response. “Relax. Yan Ni’er is smart. She won’t be detected by any of them. Moreover, who would expect a bird to be tracking them?”

“Brat, let me give you some advice. You should stop relying on luck. What if they actually detected your presence? I might be able to avoid their divine sense, but what can you do?” Mister Bu growled with an ugly expression.

Shang Xia expected him to say that and he laughed softly before merging his divine sense with the world around him. Mister Bu could no longer feel his presence. If not for the fact that he was staring at Shang Xia who was running beside him, he wouldn’t know that anyone was there.

Staring at the kid from head to toe, Mister Bu reevaluated Shang Xia. He muttered softly, “Your Shang Clan’s Providence Chapter doesn’t seem to possess a special ability like that… I never saw Shang Bo or Shang Ke doing anything like this…”

“Do you know them personally?” Shang Xia asked suddenly.

Mister Bu released a snort in response. “Hmph, brat, you’re still too inexperienced to be fishing for information from me.”

Shang Xia couldn’t help but snigger silently.

“Since that’s the case, we’ll take a look. If you reveal yourself on accident, you better not blame me for not saving you.” Mister Bu growled. When he was done with his warning, he continued, “Anyway, who is the Martial Extermination Realm cultivator you’re tracking?”

“They’re from the Azure Spiritual World!” Shang Xia followed up with an explanation of what happened with Chen Sanyang the other day.

An uneasy look appeared on Mister Bu’s face and he sighed eventually. “Indeed…”

Shang Xia didn’t understand what he meant, but before he could ask about it, Yan Ni’er released a loud cry. Shang Xia raised his head and saw her circling around before descending towards them.

“We’re here.” Shang Xia muttered.

Mister Bu couldn’t be bothered with questioning Shang Xia any further and he ordered sternly, “Stay here and remain hidden. Don’t go anywhere. I’ll go and take a look.”

After he spoke, his figure flashed and he appeared dozens of feet away.

Shang Xia stretched out his hand to stop Mister Bu, but he was a little too late. Mister Bu seemed adamant about doing it alone this time, and he didn’t give Shang Xia a chance to say anything.

Shang Xia understood that the Martial Extermination Realm expert was doing it to protect him and he couldn’t really say anything about it.

Moreover, Mister Bu’s concerns were understandable. Shang Xia’s actions were really too reckless. Was he really capable of spying on them without being discovered? Even the act of getting Yan Ni’er to track them was too risky.

Shang Xia looked in the direction where Mister Bu disappeared and he clenched his jaw. After thinking about it for a second, he decided to ignore Mister Bu’s instructions. He started to walk forward.

After traveling close to a hundred feet forward, he discovered signs of activities behind a distant hill. Just as he was about to take a closer look, a hand reached out from behind a tree to cover his mouth.

“Wu…” Shang Xia wanted to gasp in fright, but no sound came out. He retrieved the Origin Light Dagger and stabbed viciously to the side.

“Shut up! It’s me!”

Shang Xia seemed to have discovered Mister Bu’s presence right as he spoke and he quickly withdrew his dagger. Luckily for the Martial Extermination Realm expert, the dagger disappeared before it could pierce through Mister Bu’s waist.

“What the fuck! You’re an insidious bastard!” Mister Bu released Shang Xia and he stared at the weapon in his palm. “You have so much good stuff on you…”

With a flick of his wrist, The Origin Light Dagger disappeared into his sleeves.

“Look. Are those the Martial Extermination Realm experts you were tracking?” Mister Bu’s voice rang softly in Shang Xia’s ears.

With the cover of the trees around him, Shang Xia looked in the direction where Mister Bu pointed. He noticed Youshang, who tracked him previously along with another black-clothed man. The two of them seemed to be discussing something in secret, and neither Shang Xia nor Mister Bu could hear their conversation. They didn’t dare to extend their divine sense over for fear of getting detected.

Even so, the two of them could tell that the black-clothed man was a cultivator of the Azure Origin World from the way the heaven and earth qi moved around him. The man clearly didn’t cultivate any bloodline powers.

Without a doubt, that was a member from the Azure Origin World who was colluding with the members of the Azure Spiritual World!

From the energy fluctuations around him, Shang Xia and Mister Bu eventually deduced that the black-clothed man was a Martial Extermination Realm expert. There was no way he would be a nameless expert with such a high cultivation level!

All of a sudden, Shang Xia discovered that Mister Bu’s expression had changed.

Turning to look at the expert beside him, Shang Xia noticed that a look of suspicion was forming on Mister Bu’s face. His lack of composure also caused his qi to leak out slightly.

Before Shang Xia could say anything, the two of them noticed the anomaly. They turned to stare in the direction Shang Xia and Mister Bu were hiding.

“Sneaky bastard, get out here!” The expert from the Azure Spiritual World roared. The resulting sound waves caused Shang Xia’s mind to shake.

It didn’t matter if it was Shang Xia or Mister Bu. Neither of them could remain hidden any longer.

A bloody mist extended towards Shang Xia as the roar faded, and a giant palm made from blood came crashing down. It shattered every tree in its path and it pressed down viciously.

“Kid, leave!”

That was all Shang Xia heard before he felt a strong force pushing him away.

Before he landed, Shang Xia heard a loud roar coming from Mister Bu as he rose into the skies. With his middle finger and index finger pointing up into the air, Mister Bu extended his arm upwards.

A grayish-white extermination origin emerged and it tore a hole through the giant palm in the air.

Mister Bu’s figure trembled slightly and he escaped from the gap in the palm.

Shang Xia finally crashed into the ground thirty feet away and he tumbled a few times. However, he remained silent.

He had merged his divine sense into the world around him the moment he landed. As long as no one sees him, not even a Martial Extermination Realm expert would be able to detect his presence.

Even though Mister Bu wouldn’t be able to take the both of them down, it shouldn’t be a problem for him to escape.

However, Shang Xia discovered a shocking fact. Instead of running away, Mister Bu was closing the distance between himself and his opponents! There was no doubt about it, Mister Bu was buying time for him to escape! After all, Shang Xia would be nothing but a burden if he remained.

Without hesitation, Shang Xia leaped to his feet and started running.

The moment he started moving, a roar tore through the air. “Painting Finger?! That’s the Sima Family’s special technique! Hmph! It’s someone from the Rose Party! We cannot allow him to leave!”

The voice didn’t sound like Youshang of the Azure Spiritual World. Instead, it came from the black-clothed cultivator.

Shang Xia almost fell over as he found the voice slightly familiar.

Turning to look in the direction of the black-clothed man, Mister Bu’s voice boomed through the air. “You?”

He didn’t have a chance to continue as the two of them continued their attacks. With Youshang’s extermination origin tearing through the air, Mister Bu felt his heart palpitating. He also seemed to have lost control of his inner qi.

He had to defend both their attacks while regulating his inner qi. There was no way for him to talk.

Realizing that the situation just took a huge turn for the worst, Shang Xia suppressed his suspicions for the time being and he continued to run.

He didn’t manage to get far when a terrifying ray of energy tore through the air. “Brother You, let me assist you!”

A three-colored extermination origin appeared in the distance and it flew straight for the battlefield. It belonged to Liang Shuangren of the Changbai Holy Land, and the situation that Shang Xia thought couldn’t get any worse just went to shits.

“Shit!” Shang Xia’s heart pounded against his chest and his expression changed.
