"Fellow Tao Dao, what happened in the restricted area recently?"

When Su Xiaofan and Tao Ran left the market, they saw several warriors coming in from the outside and couldn't help but feel a little strange.

Last time Su Xiaofan came to Fang City, there were not many warriors coming and going, but this time he and Yang Lao met several groups on the way here.

"It seems that there was some conflict between the alliance's senior leaders and the casual cultivators."

The city is well-informed, and Tao Ran also heard some rumors, "It seems that some casual cultivators are colluding with the black hands and want to deal with us."

Tao Ran comes from a reclusive family in the country and can be considered a member of the sect family alliance. Naturally, he talks in the direction of Fangshi.

"I heard that there have been several battles outside, and some of the great cultivators in the Yangshen Realm have died."

Tao Ran lowered his voice a bit and said, "Fellow Daoist Su, it's actually not safe for us to go out at this time."

If it weren't for the sake of those ten middle-grade mysterious jade, Tao Ran really wouldn't go out of the restricted area, but Su Xiaofan gave him too much, and he really couldn't refuse.

What’s more, the glacier restricted area is too big. The outer edge area alone is tens of thousands of square kilometers in size.

So Tao Ran didn't think that his luck would be so bad and he would meet rogue cultivators or people from the Black Hand organization after he came out.

"It's okay, I'm responsible for safety."

Seeing Tao Ran's worried look, Su Xiaofan waved his hand, "As long as fellow Taoist Tao helps me find the meteorite, I will thank you very much!"

As long as you are a human being, you will have desires. Su Xiaofan understood this as early as when he was working as a stall owner in the antique market.

Ordinary people chase high-ranking officials and make huge profits, while cultivators need cultivation resources and are rewarded with mysterious jade. He is not afraid of Tao Ran not being dedicated.

"Are you in charge of security?"

Tao Ran glanced at Su Xiaofan, who was running alongside him, and shook his head imperceptibly. We were all cultivators in the early stages of foundation building, so why were we pretending to be big-tailed wolves?

Of course, ten pieces of middle-grade black jade are still very fragrant. In this industry, it only takes ten days at most to earn one year's harvest. This is the main reason why Tao Ran is willing to go.

Although Tao Ran also has a family behind him, without a family that is a Yang Shen realm cultivator, the support given to the children of the family is limited after all, and Tao Ran needs to obtain many cultivation resources himself.

After leaving Fangshi, the two of them sped up at the same time, with the wind roaring in their ears. When they communicated again, they already used spiritual consciousness to communicate.

However, compared with when Su Xiaofan came, the speed was more than a minute slower.

Tao Ran's body skills were average, and his cultivation was only at the early stage of foundation building. Even if he ran with all his strength, he could only run more than ten kilometers in an hour, which was a slow pace for Su Xiaofan.

What's even worse is that after every three to five hours of running, Tao Ran's body's true energy is almost depleted, and he has to meditate to recover, which slows down his speed a lot.

After four full days of this, Su Xiaofan and Tao Ran arrived near Mr. Yang's hiding place.

This speed made Su Xiaofan almost collapse. You must know that if he were alone, this journey would only take half a day.

Su Xiaofan was a little helpless, but he could only follow Tao Ran and stop while walking, heading east.

After walking on the road for several days, Tao Ran came to his senses. The fellow Daoist Su beside him was definitely not at the early stage of foundation building.

For several days in a row, every time when he was recovering from exhaustion, Su Xiaofan acted like a normal person. Tao Ran naturally understood that the other person's cultivation level was not as simple as it appeared.

No cultivator is a fool, and no fool can become a cultivator.

It is quite safe along the way.

The two of them have been traveling along the edge of the restricted area barrier, which is the place with the thinnest spiritual energy in the entire restricted area.

Not to mention extraordinary, even human cultivators rarely practice here, so they didn't even meet a single figure along the way.

"Brother Tao, wait!"

When he was still dozens of kilometers away from the entrance of the restricted area where Su Xiaofan entered, Su Xiaofan suddenly stopped.

"Fellow Daoist Su, what's wrong?"

Tao Ran couldn't help but stop like Su Xiaofan, and rushed forward several dozen meters before stopping.

"There is someone at the entrance." Su Xiaofan said.

"You mean the entrance to the restricted area?"

Tao Ran was stunned for a moment, "But this place is still dozens of kilometers away from the entrance to the restricted area. How did you find out?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Tao Ran knew that he had asked a stupid question. Others would naturally discover it through their spiritual senses. If he couldn't discover it himself, then he must not have cultivated enough.

"Four people, one in Yangshen realm, one cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, and two cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building."

Su Xiaofan's consciousness extended over, "They are hiding behind the glacier more than two thousand meters away from the entrance, as if they are ambushing. Brother Tao, are they friends or foes?"

"This... is most likely an enemy."

Hearing the other party's strength, Tao Ran showed a hint of fear on his face, "People in our alliance won't be so sneaky when doing things, and extraordinary people won't come in from outside the restricted area. The only people they want to deal with are cultivators."

"Well, the person taking the lead has a scar from the corner of his eye to the corner of his mouth." Su Xiaofan saw those people clearly.

Although they are both in the Yang Shen realm, Su Xiaofan has accumulated skills all the way through the Great Zhoutian and Yin Shen realms, and his foundation is extremely solid. When he was in the Yin Shen realm, his spiritual awareness was no better than that of ordinary Yang Shen cultivators.

How much weaker.

Therefore, although Su Xiaofan was also in the early stage of Yang Shen, his spiritual consciousness was comparable to that of a cultivator in the middle stage of Yang Shen. The Yang Shen at the entrance to the restricted area did not notice him.

"Blood...bloody hand massacre? How...how could it be him?"

Hearing Su Xiaofan's description, Tao Ran's face suddenly turned pale. He grabbed Su Xiaofan and pulled him back hard: "Fellow Daoist Su, we can't go any further!"

"Why? Because of the bloody massacre you mentioned?"

Su Xiaofan turned back and looked at Tao Ran, "Where did this person come from, and why did he get such a middle-class nickname?"

"Second grade two?"

Tao Ran was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he heard someone give such a comment to the nickname Bloody Hand Human Tu.

You know, the four words "bloody massacre" mean killing in the restricted area.

Moreover, this man was very powerful and extremely cunning. Several times, high-level Yangshen cultivators took action, but he escaped every time.

"Brother Tao, don't be nervous, tell me his origin."

Su Xiaofan's calm look relieved Tao Ran's nervousness a bit.

"No one knows what this man's real name is. He is called the Bloody Old Ghost in the restricted area. He has been famous for a long time and is estimated to be over a hundred years old."

Tao Ran thought for a moment and then said: "There is a legend in the restricted area. It seems that the bloody hand Tu Rentu is from Japan. He secretly learned the cultivation technique in China when he was young. When the people in China were in ruins, his hands were covered with blood.

.

Later, it seemed that the ancestor of the Sword Sect seriously injured him. In the following decades, there was no news about the Bloody Hand Human Tu, but more than thirty years ago, he appeared again in this restricted area of ​​​​the glacier.

It is said that the Bloody Hand Human Tu is one of the founders of the Black Hand organization and is specifically against our Chinese cultivators. The number of cultivators who have died at their hands in the past few decades has been hundreds of people at least.

The reward is not low..."

When it came to the Blood Hand massacre and the Black Hand organization, Tao Ran's eyes showed hatred that he couldn't hide. He also had elders from the Tao family who died at their hands, and more than one of them.

"Ancestor injured him?"

Seeing the scar on the man's face, Su Xiaofan nodded slightly. It really looked like a sword wound.

However, being able to escape with one's life at the hands of the ancestor, this bloody-handed massacrer should not be underestimated. Anyone who can become a cultivator of Yang Shen probably has some trump cards.

"Yes, later the Sword Sect ancestor also chased him in the restricted area, but he ran away."

Tao Ran said: "The Black Hand organization has three founders, but Old Ghost Xue is the most murderous. Fellow Daoist Su, let's go back quickly and invite Mr. Dong and others to come over."

At this time, Tao Ran had no intention of helping Su Xiaofan search for the meteorite. He just wanted to return to Fang City as soon as possible. No matter how powerful the Bloody Hand Massacre was, he would not dare to go there and act recklessly.

Moreover, the Alliance has a reward for traces of the bloody massacre. As long as the information is accurate, you can get a high-grade mysterious jade.

If you can kill the Bloody Man Tu, you can directly receive fifty high-grade mysterious jade from the alliance, which shows how much the alliance hates the old blood ghost.

"Do you think they will still be here when Mr. Dong comes?"

Su Xiaofan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. With Tao Ran's speed, it would take at least four or five days to get back to Fangshi from here. If Mr. Dong arrives, the day lilies will be cold.

"Well, then we can't go forward."

Tao Ran was already a little confused at this moment. Cultivators are also human beings, and there is also great terror between life and death.

What's more, if he goes back to report the news, maybe the old blood ghost will stay here forever, and then he will still have a chance to get a reward of a high-grade mysterious jade.

"No, keep walking!"

Su Xiaofan shook his head, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

Su Xiaofan has no hatred towards the Blood Hand Organization, but when it comes to the war more than half a century ago, Su Xiaofan's hatred is hard to get rid of.

Luochuan is located in the Central Plains and has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times.

In the war that year, Sujia Village was almost completely destroyed, and Su Xiaofan's grandfather died at the hands of the Japanese.

If some people in the village had not hid deep in Mang Mountain, it is still open to question whether Sujia Village would still exist.

"Fellow Daoist Su, are you crazy?"

Tao Ran finally couldn't help it anymore. Even though he knew that Su Xiaofan had hidden his cultivation, he didn't think that this young man would be a cultivator in the Yangshen realm.

"Brother Tao, do you think I'm crazy?"

Su Xiaofan sighed, "As the saying goes, wealth can be found in danger. If you kill the old blood ghost, you can get fifty high-grade mysterious jade. Brother Tao, are you not tempted at all?"
