Chapter 570: An Existence On Par with a Locust

Ning Shu ordered some food and listened in on the conversations nearby as she ate. These hardened cultivators were all either discussing women or treasures, no one was talking about Xie Yu.

With how large this world was, how was she supposed to find him?

At this time, someone sitting at a neighboring table suddenly whispered, “Do you guys know about that traitor from Iridescent Sect, Xie Yu? He has a celestial residence! A completely nature-defying treasure! So Iridescent Sect are sending people to hunt him down and kill him!”

“Isn’t that already old news? I heard a while ago that Xie Yu had appeared in Ramble Jade Valley and subdued the god beast there.”

“I know, I heard about that too! I even heard that Xie Yu had obtained an amazing god-level weapon!” Another person hastily contributed the info he had.

Ning Shu: →_→

It felt like Xie Yu was an existence on par with a locust. Once he goes through a place, it was left barren with all the good things completely reaped.

Ning Shu went over and asked, “Hey brothers, then do you guys know where Xie Yu is right now?”

The four of them looked towards Ning Shu warily. When they saw that Ning Shu was dressed in very pathetic hemp clothing, one of them said coldly, “Kid, you actually had the nerve to eavesdrop on us?”

“It’s a misunderstanding. It’s a complete misunderstanding. I didn’t mean to eavesdrop on you guys at all. As an apology, I’ll buy you guys a pot of wine.” Ning Shu had the waiter bring a pot of wine which finally made the men’s expressions lighten up slightly.

“Actually, I’m also looking for Xie Yu to try my luck,” said Ning Shu with an expression of longing. “Xie Yu has so many treasures.”

The four men reacted with contempt. “At your level? You’ll probably just end up as another departed spirit under Xie Yu’s blade. Xie Yu’s a very prickly target. A lot of people have gone after him only to end up killed. He’s seriously not a good person to provoke. You shouldn’t throw yourself towards death.”

“It’s fine, I’m just going to take a look. If Xie Yu turns out to seriously be too strong, I won’t go up and will immediately run for it,” said Ning Shu.

She acted like she suffering a lot of heartache as she ordered another dish for these guys and one of them finally told her that Xie Yu might have gone to Sand City.

She brought a map and found that Sand City was part of Blood Refinement School’s territory. Could it be that Xie Yu has gone to look for Liu Yuanyuan? She remembered that Liu Yuanyuan was the main disciple of Blood Refinement School’s chief.

In the end, she decided to head to Sand City after all. Once she left the town, she hopped onto the lightning wind eagle’s back to fly towards Sand City.

It took five days to reach Sand City despite the lightning wind eagle’s speed, so Xie Yu was seriously good at running. She just wondered if the little tigress Yan Jiao had been able to hold up to such rough travels.

She put the lightning wind eagle back inside the spirit beast pouch, then walked into Sand City. She immediately sensed that this place was different. Everyone that she passed by had the strong stench of blood hovering around them. She didn’t know if it was the stench of beast blood or human blood.

The look in these people’s eyes was very dark too. It was obvious that they weren’t good people. As she had guessed, Blood Refinement School was probably some sort of demonic cult.

At the city gates, Ning Shu got a couple primordial crystals extorted out of her by the disciples of Blood Refinement School. They then gave her a wooden tablet and said that with this tablet, she could get a 20% discount the next time she entered the city.

Ning Shu: …

What a rip-off. She had to pay a fee every time she entered the city?

She put the wooden tablet away and entered Sand City. She first went to look for an inn and ended having another ten primordial crystals extorted out of her. She felt like she had entered a bandit’s den.

Blood Refinement School must be made up of swindlers!

However, Ning Shu had plenty of primordial crystals and her goal was to find Xie Yu, so she didn’t mind these little things much.

She ordered a few ridiculously pricey and tiny dishes, then as she was waiting, she suddenly noticed two familiar figures.

She tossed a couple primordial crystals on the table and ran out to chase after them. “Hey, you two, this young master commands you to stop right there!”
