Chapter 840: News

A sword condensed in mid-air.

Its cold glint was unmistakable.

It radiated a strong killing intent, completely locking onto the Night Wind Centipede.

The sword, suspended in mid-air, was ready to strike at any moment, awaiting only its master's command.

Finally.

After observing for a while, the sword's master lost patience and impatiently raised his finger.

"Buzz!"

The long sword quivered, poised for action.

Just as it was about to strike, another man stopped him at the last moment.

"What?"

Asked the sword's master.

"Taking their lives can be done anytime, there's no need to rush. Why not follow them first and see what their true intentions are?"

"While we're at it, let's also check if there's any connection between Zhao Qi's disappearance and them."

"Once we’ve figured all this out, it won’t be too late to eliminate them."

Hearing this.

The sword's master nodded, then waved his hand, retracting the suspended sword.

Thus, the two men hovered in mid-air, observing the Night Wind Centipede and the Spirit King from a god's-eye view.

...

Meanwhile, in another place.

Inside the Cloud Calamity Sect.

Many elders were beginning to take action.

From the Night Wind Centipede's words and Su Yuer's earlier actions in seeking out beautiful female disciples from other sects, they had more or less deduced Bu Laiwei's desires.

The Supreme Golden Bone.

Who wouldn't covet it?

As long as there was even a sliver of opportunity, everyone wanted to seize it.

As elders of the Cloud Calamity Sect, having lived for so many years, who didn't have some relatives and friends?

Thus, they were all scouting for candidates, hoping to connect with Su Yuer again.

Thus, the sixth elder of the Cloud Calamity Sect arrived at the South Gate, another branch of their sect.

"Humph, what brings you here, you old scoundrel?"

Seeing this, Zhong Nan, the Sect Master of the South Gate, spoke with displeasure.

"What kind of talk is that?" The sixth elder sat down boldly, waving his hand and shouting, "Hurry up and pour me some water!"

"You old scoundrel, you still want me to pour water for you?" Zhong Nan's face turned ashen as he said, "It's good enough that I’m not causing trouble for your Cloud Calamity Sect yet."

"Why would you cause trouble for my Cloud Calamity Sect?" The sixth elder asked, puzzled.

"Why do you think?"

Zhong Nan was incensed, "Last time, my disciple was invited by your Cloud Calamity Sect’s Su Yuer, claiming there was some opportunity, but what happened instead? She proposed that my disciple serve some unknown person?"

"So I want to ask, what is this behavior from your Cloud Calamity Sect? Is such a humiliating act intended to destroy my disciple's Dao heart?"

Zhong Nan's questioning voice was filled with fury.

It was only because the two sects had a good relationship and he knew Su Yuer was rather scatterbrained that he didn't pursue the matter further.

Who knew, after hearing Zhong Nan's words, the sixth elder burst into laughter.

"Why are you laughing?"

Zhong Nan glared at the sixth elder, full of anger.

"I laugh at your ignorance!" The sixth elder said with a mysterious smile.

"Ignorance?"

"You're the ignorant one, you and your entire family are ignorant."

Zhong Nan was even more furious, standing up and glaring at the sixth elder, saying, "You old scoundrel, make things clear today, if you don't, you won't be leaving my South Gate."

The sixth elder took his time, glancing at the teacup.

"Pour tea first!"

"You."

Zhong Nan looked at the sixth elder with resentment.

"Treat me well, and I’ll tell you something big, even a great opportunity!" The sixth elder said mysteriously.

"Get out, a great opportunity? First, explain what happened earlier," Zhong Nan shouted.

"Not pouring, huh? Then don’t regret it."

The sixth elder played coy, getting up to leave, and as he walked, he leisurely said, "Ah, some fools aren’t interested in news about the Supreme Golden Bone. If you're not interested, then I'll just leave without saying more."

"What?"

"The Supreme Golden Bone?"

Zhong Nan’s eyes widened.

Instantly changing his demeanor, he grabbed the sixth elder’s arm, smiling ingratiatingly, "Hey, old brother, what are you talking about? I was just joking around earlier!"

As he spoke, he poured tea for the sixth elder.

"Now, can you tell me?"

After eagerly doing everything, Zhong Nan looked expectantly at the sixth elder.
