Chapter 376: Chapter 198: After Your Lives—The Terrifying Sun True Flame Palm

On the second floor of the tavern, Wei Fan glanced around and noticed that a place which earlier had barely a few people was now suddenly crowded.

But he didn’t pay it any mind, just waited for Ji Qingyue’s answer.

The Yunhua Sect incident was his doing, so naturally, he wouldn’t just let it go. If demon fiends were giving Yunhua Sect trouble, then he’d just slaughter them.

"As for where Profound Crane Sect is, I’m afraid only demon fiends know. That place is considered a demon fiend holy land—deep, unfathomable. Even if you find out, don’t go!"

Ji Qingyue shot Wei Fan a look. His killing intent was still as fierce as ever, and breaking through to Martial Venerable hadn’t mellowed him one bit.

She continued, "As for Double-headed Elephant Venerable, after being driven back by that Human Race senior, he’s probably hiding somewhere to heal, or maybe returned to Profound Crane Sect..."

Wei Fan couldn’t help feeling disappointed.

"But I do have some of Double-headed Elephant Venerable’s aura."

The next moment, Ji Qingyue extended her hand, revealing a trace of gray energy quietly swirling in her palm.

This was Double-headed Elephant Venerable’s aura she’d gathered while he fought that Human Race elder.

She split the aura in two, handing part of it to Wei Fan.

Wei Fan took it immediately. "Do you have any other Demon Venerables’ aura? Give me a share and I can trade you for something!"

He’d packed enough; plus, with Elder Gongyang’s words, it was time to leave Nanchuan City. With some Demon Venerables’ aura to track, he could begin hunting—otherwise, searching for one across the land relying only on himself, he might not find a single Demon Venerable even after ten days and half a month.

Ji Qingyue looked surprised. "Who’s your Reception Envoy? Didn’t he tell you that the Sub-Palace holds lots of Demon Venerable aura? The Sub-Palace isn’t just for Inspectors—it’s also the information hub for all the neighboring kingdoms.

Any Demon Venerables who’ve committed heinous crimes will show up on the Sub-Palace’s bounty board. You can go to the Hall Master to collect Demon Venerable aura—don’t trade with others. Also, the Sub-Palace has collected aura from strong Demon Venerables within Daqian Kingdom."

Even though he didn’t know Wei Fan could harvest power by killing demon fiends, he’d heard from his junior, Li Qingmeng, that in Su City, Wei Fan was the fiercest Demon Hunter there was.

You could say that among Demon Hunters, Wei Fan hated demon fiends to his bones.

"Name’s Li Yunfei!"

Wei Fan’s face darkened. This crucial bit of info, and that bastard hadn’t told him.

And that old man, Elder Gongyang, hadn’t mentioned it either.

If he’d known the Sub-Palace had tons of Demon Venerable aura, he wouldn’t have wasted so much time in Nanchuan City.

"So it’s him!"

Ji Qingyue nodded. "You want to hunt Demon Venerables—can you take me along?"

As she spoke, her aura flared slightly. "I’ve reached Golden Body Second Forging. I shouldn’t slow you down!"

Wei Fan nodded!

Ji Qingyue had a Four-Colored Golden Body. Reaching Second Forging—she might not be much help, but she certainly wouldn’t be a burden.

"May I ask, are you Wei Fan, Venerable Guardian Wu?"

Suddenly, someone approached.

Wei Fan had already noticed the sudden influx of people. His expression was blank. "What do you want?"

The man clasped his hands in greeting: "I’m Yang Shiqi of Bright Moon Sect. My Sect Leader wishes for Venerable Guardian Wu to join him for a talk!"

As he spoke, Yang Shiqi pointed to a table not far away, where a stern-faced middle-aged man gave Wei Fan a salute from across the room.

Wei Fan glanced at the two: "Not interested!"

As soon as he finished, Yang Shiqi and the Bright Moon Sect Leader’s faces instantly darkened.

Yang Shiqi quickly hid his expression, frowning. "Venerable Guardian Wu isn’t from Daqian Kingdom, so maybe you don’t know Bright Moon Sect. Bright Moon Sect is one of Daqian Kingdom’s Peak Sects—our sect has four or five Martial Venerables, and more than ten Divine Realm Martial Sect cultivators!"

He figured Wei Fan just didn’t know what level Bright Moon Sect was, so started introducing.

Even among Peak Sects, there are huge gaps—some have three or four Martial Venerables, maybe even ten or more; the weaker ones have only a single Martial Venerable, just scraping into Peak Sect status.

Wei Fan’s gaze sharpened. "Didn’t you hear me? Not interested!"

He couldn’t possibly not know what these guys were angling for—obviously, they were eyeing his Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill.

He ignored Yang Shiqi and continued eating with Ji Qingyue, while Yang Shiqi left, face black as thunder.

A while later, Wei Fan and Ji Qingyue left.

Yang Shiqi watched Wei Fan and Ji Qingyue’s backs disappear, snorted coldly: "Doesn’t know what’s good for him. Thinks this is still the Great Victory Dynasty!" 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

The Bright Moon Sect Leader’s face was dark. "He’ll eat the stick instead of the carrot. Make sure someone watches them!"

As he spoke, the two also left the tavern.

"Someone’s tailing us."

Ji Qingyue glanced back.

Wei Fan’s expression was blank. "Someone wants to die; we won’t go to the Sub-Palace for now!"

With these people following him, Wei Fan simply left Nanchuan City with Ji Qingyue, giving them a chance to act.

Once outside the city, neither Wei Fan nor Ji Qingyue took to the skies—they just ambled along the official road like they didn’t have a care.

After walking more than ten miles, three figures dropped down from the sky to block their way—Yang Shiqi, the Bright Moon Sect Leader, and an old man who looked about fifty or sixty.

"Hold up, you two. There’s something we’d like to discuss!"

The Bright Moon Sect Leader swept his gaze over them as if he didn’t care. "I’ve got a Martial King Level Martial Arts manual I’d like to exchange for your Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill, Venerable Guardian Wu. What do you think?"

He didn’t move to snatch it right away—he intended to swap cultivation techniques first, trading for Wei Fan’s Celestial Roc Body Cleansing Skill.

Of course, whether it was really a Martial King Level martial art was anyone’s guess.

Wei Fan scanned them. His panel gave no reaction to Yang Shiqi or the Bright Moon Sect Leader, but when it came to the old man, it began to flicker.
