Chapter 894: Chapter 894 Dust Star
Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but become curious.
What exactly does this woman mean?
Does she think there isn’t already enough gossip about the two of them within the sect?
“Are you going or not? Quit hemming and hawing like a nagging woman.”
Song Xue said impatiently, “Hurry up, time is tight. That caravan can’t hold out much longer.”
“Senior Sister, you want me to see the world just because of this?”
Jiang Xiaobai was curious.
“What else could I possibly want with you?”
“And this mission offers a hundred and fifty points for each team member, which is like picking up free points for you!”
Jiang Xiaobai thought about it and realized it was true.
Qiao Nan Heng had mentioned before that entering the Sword Pool once required five hundred points.
“Alright!”
Jiang Xiaobai agreed without hesitation and also remembered that Yuan Chongwei and Jiang Yu, those two simpletons, had gone to Dust Star as well.
He might run into them.
If Jiang Xiaobai was going, it was natural for Qiongyu to come along; it would be foolish not to take advantage of free points.
The five of them confirmed their team and immediately used the spatial portal opened by the elder to rush to Dust Star.
…
Meanwhile, on Dust Star,
Three guys wrapped in bandages were huddled together, acting suspiciously.
“Big brother, what do we do this time?”
“How should I know? Damn it, we should never have listened to that caravan, all this talk of escorting is just setting us up.”
“Yeah, big brother, I feel like it’s even worse than Jiang Xiaobai’s scam. Now we’re trapped here. How are we going to get out, big brother?”
At this moment, Hu Da thought for a moment.
“Luck favors the prepared.”
“Holy shit, big brother, you’re awesome for knowing proverbs!”
Slap!
LaoEr immediately slapped the back of the third brother’s head.
“What proverb? Proverbs are four characters long, this is an allegorical saying!”
“Is that so? Well, big brother is still amazing.”
“Exactly, big brother is incredible!”
At this point, all three of them were in the true immortal realm!
Who knows how they cultivated to progress so quickly!
Meanwhile, in another place on Dust Star, Gu Wanqing was going crazy!
Her three nephews had vanished without trace when she wasn’t paying attention!
And she hadn’t been able to find them despite a lengthy search.
“Damn it, if I’d known, I wouldn’t have come to this godforsaken place to receive the inheritance. Ancestors, why did you place the inheritance in such a remote location? And on the Upper Three Thousand, no less? Isn’t that just setting people up?”
Gu Wanqing was on the verge of tears.
She had no choice but to continue searching for her three careless nephews.
…
As Jiang Xiaobai and his team descended onto Dust Star, he was taken aback.
Sheesh, why does the environment here resemble the moon so much?
There were craters everywhere, the ground covered in gray dust, and lifting one’s head revealed the endless black expanse of space.
If not for the fact that this place was countless times larger than the moon, Jiang Xiaobai might have thought he’d traveled back in time again.
“According to their last known distress location, it’s about two hundred li ahead. Let’s go check it out.”
Song Xue led the team, hurriedly heading for that location.
Arriving at the last spot from which a message was sent, everyone fell silent.
“Senior Sister Song Xue, are you certain they could still be alive?”
Jiang Xiaobai surveyed the scene of corpses, deep in thought.
There were easily seven or eight hundred bodies here, and the chaos around them clearly indicated that a fierce battle had taken place.
How many people could a merchant caravan have?
They haven’t all died, have they?
“Even if they all died, we need to find their bodies, but look over there at those traces, it should be fine.”
Song Xue pointed not far ahead, where the traces seemed to be made by someone running while fighting.
The five became cautious and followed the tracks carefully as they moved forward.
Soon, they arrived beside a huge circular mountain.
The mountain was several thousand meters high and spanned at least ten thousand miles in width.
Around here, there were many corpses scattered, with a variety of clothing, and even the bodies of those from the Immortal Alliance could be seen.
“What on earth happened here, why are there people from the Immortal Alliance dead too?”
Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows, something mysterious was afoot!
Song Xue’s brow was also tightly furrowed as she released her divine consciousness to check the surroundings.
“There are people over there, let’s go ask.”
Song Xue noticed people inside the circular mountain and hurriedly rushed over.
Indeed, they saw five fellows searching around for something, and Jiang Xiaobai also noticed that the situation inside the circular mountain was unique, with a massive ruin lying within.
Upon seeing Jiang Xiaobai and his group, the five also became extremely wary, staring intently.
At that moment, one of Jiang Xiaobai’s senior sisters slowly said, “Dust Star is a trial combat star, a lawless zone, these people are all desperate fugitives, very troublesome.”
“Be careful.”
As Jiang Xiaobai assessed the situation, he sized up the five people.
Five Earth Immortals!
In terms of strength, they were not comparable to his side at all, nothing to be afraid of.
“Gentlemen, what brings you this way?” At that moment, the leader of the other party spoke up.
“I’m asking you, what happened here earlier, have you seen a merchant caravan being chased?”
Song Xue said indifferently.
“Hehe, not to hide it from you, we are here to find that merchant caravan. Are you as well?”
“Oh? What do you want with the merchant caravan?”
Song Xue was startled. Had they actually run into the enemy?
“You don’t know? If you don’t know, what are you doing here?” The leader spoke with a light smile. “You aren’t here to dip your fingers in the pie for no reason, are you?”
“Speak!”
Song Xue snorted coldly, her celestial energy bursting forth, enveloping the five in front of her.
The other two senior sisters also prepared to take action.
The faces of the five became unsightly, “We belong to the Heaven and Earth Pavilion, and on Dust Star, this territory, it’s probably better not to cause trouble.”
“I was just asking, didn’t plan on lifting a finger against you.”
Song Xue sneered, “Make it clear, otherwise, whether you’re from Heaven and Earth Pavilion or someplace else, the outcome won’t be too good.”
Being threatened like this, the five people from Heaven and Earth Pavilion were very displeased.
But the situation was not in their favor!
“Nothing much, they took something that should not belong to them, we are just ordered to retrieve it.”
“And what about that big battle over there earlier?”
The people from Heaven and Earth Pavilion smiled lightly, “What else could it be? Several factions came together to snatch the item, and a fight broke out.”
“So what exactly are you here for?”
Song Xue stayed silent, continuously analyzing the situation in her mind.
Eventually, she did not act against the five but led Jiang Xiaobai and the others away towards a farther ruin.
“Senior sister, what’s the situation?” Jiang Xiaobai asked curiously.
“Heaven and Earth Pavilion is one of the most powerful factions on Dust Star, with several Golden Immortals residing there, not to be trifled with.”
“Let’s focus on finding the people first, we can discuss the other matters as we go.”
Song Xue massaged her temples, feeling that the situation was becoming very complicated.
What could a merchant caravan possibly have taken?
At that moment, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly sensed something and looked in a certain direction.
Although there was nothing there.
But Jiang Xiaobai had the feeling someone had been watching him just now!
What do you think?
