A Thousand Years of Immortal Dreams

Cao Wang didn't even bother to eat; he grabbed two large steamed buns from another window and headed towards Hua An's place.

Pushing open the door, Hua An was not there.

Cao Wang inquired along the way.

Have you ever seen Hua An?

"Do you know where we're going?"

Most of the people living in this area know each other.

But everyone shook their heads, saying they had never seen it before.

"Could this guy be dead?"

We've known each other for a while now.

This guy even brought me an incredibly important notebook today.

Even if he's really hacked to death, we should at least collect his body.

Thinking about this...

Cao Wangma continued walking down the mountain without stopping.

At this time, the market area was under martial law.

Only in, no out.

Ten miles away from the market town, the Blissful Sect's law enforcement team cordoned off the entire area.

No one was allowed to approach; Cao Wang could only watch from a distance.

"Hey bro, what are you looking at?"

There were many onlookers.

A voice suddenly came from behind Cao Wang.

"It's nothing!"

Cao Wang was tense the whole time, and his mind was not on what was going on behind him.

"Are you looking for someone?"

"How could you...?"

Cao Wang suddenly turned around and then punched the other man in the chest.

"Holy shit! I thought you were dead!"

"Hehe! Did you think I was involved too, and that they all killed me?"

The person who came was none other than Hua An.

"You son of a bitch, you made me worry for nothing! I heard about this 'trap in a jar' situation in the cafeteria, so I rushed down to see if you were dead!"

"Come on, let's talk over here!"

Hua An led Cao Wang to a grove of trees.

"I originally planned to join in the fun, but I felt something was wrong more and more because there were too many people trying to take this guy. There were over a hundred rogue cultivators alone, which wasn't enough to go around. So I just followed along to see what was going on, and I never expected this to happen."

You have no idea, but there were more than two hundred people surrounding Wang Hu.

However, they were all killed instantly by three inner disciples wielding magical artifacts.

It was like slaughtering sheep and cattle; those people had absolutely no power to resist.

The power of these magical artifacts is immense; no wonder so many people flock to them.

"See that?"

Cao Wang snorted coldly.

There is no such thing as a free lunch.

"Yes, yes, yes, my dear brother, but honestly, I'm so touched that you came down the mountain to find me!"

"Stop talking nonsense, I'm worried about you having no one to collect your body. I'm going back!"

"hey-hey!"

……

The two walked arm in arm up the mountain path.

But just then, footsteps suddenly came from behind, accompanied by loud laughter from several people.

"Haha...we're rich now!"

"More than two hundred people! Especially those rogue cultivators, they're rolling in money!"

"Oh, by the way, have you counted them? How many spirit stones are there in total?"

"I took a quick look; it's a little over five hundred spirit stones in total, plus dozens of other rare and precious treasures. I can exchange them for several hundred on the black market. I'm rich!"

Shh! There are people ahead, don't say anything!

……

Listen to the discussions that follow.

Cao Wang and his companion felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.

"Big brother, it's Wang Hu and his gang, what do we do?"

Hua An cautiously glanced back, his face deathly pale.

"What should we do, brother?"

Cao Wang had already torn a piece of cloth from his sleeve and covered his face, and hurriedly reminded Hua An:

"Quickly cover your face so they can't see you."

Hua An didn't have time to tear off his sleeve, so he could only use it to cover his face. He then stood by the mountain path with his back to them, preparing to let them pass first.

The four or five people walked straight over. One of them was Wang Hu, three others were dressed as inner disciples, and the other was an outer disciple.

As the group passed by Cao Wang and his companion, the sharp-eyed Wang Hu immediately noticed the two strange individuals.

"Why does that back view look so familiar?"

Wang Hu frowned, staring intently at Hua An and Cao Wang.

The next moment, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face, which was full of fat.

"Haha, so it's you two lads."

As he spoke, he grabbed the two men by the shoulders with two large hands and pulled them over.

"Brother, you've mistaken me for someone else."

Hua An covered his mouth and nose, and quickly said in a strained voice.

But Wang Hu's other hand had already torn off the shirt covering Cao Wang's face.

"It really was you, kid!"

Wang Hu suddenly made a move and subdued Cao Wang.

His power at the ninth level of Qi Refining left Cao Wang utterly powerless.

"My cousin and uncle, these two lads, reported me to Zhao Dezhu of the outer sect, which led to me and several of my brothers being arrested by the enforcement team. It took a lot of effort to get us out."

One of them looked around and saw that they were on a quiet mountain path halfway up the mountain.

Looking up and then back, seeing no one, he expressionlessly ordered, "In that case, kill them."

"Hehe, that's exactly what I was thinking."

Wang Hu grinned maliciously, grabbing Cao Wang and Hua An with both hands, ready to make his move.

"I was planning to invite you to the market and kill you, but you actually delivered yourself right to my door. This saved me a lot of trouble. I can't be satisfied without killing you all."

Just as Wang Hu was about to make his move, another inner disciple coldly shouted, "Go and settle this in that corner over there, so the patrolling disciples don't see you."

Wang Hu nodded, picked up the two like chicks, and walked down another path, out of sight of the three inner disciples.

Wang Hu suddenly gathered powerful spiritual energy in his hands: "Be careful in your next life. Open your dog eyes and see clearly that not everyone is someone you can afford to offend."

"Thunderous Tiger Claw!"

Wang Hu let out a low shout, and in an instant, his arms were enveloped in surging lightning. Then he viciously slapped the back of the two men's heads.

This guy also cultivates lightning magic, but it's a low-level spell that's one level higher than the basic spells given to beginners for free: Thunder Tiger Claw.

This thing costs 100 spirit stones in the library, which is quite expensive, but it is extremely powerful, which shows that the family is indeed wealthy.

At this critical moment, while Wang Hu was casting his spell, Hua An shoved Cao Wang aside. At the same time, he chanted an incantation, made hand gestures, and unleashed a beam of azure light at Cao Wang.

The azure light entered Cao Wang's body, instantly forming a thin protective shield.

This technique was none other than the Golden Tortoise Incantation that Hua An had practiced.

"Big brother, run!"

Hua An roared and pounced on Wang Hu without hesitation, trying to buy Cao Wang time to escape.

"Snap!"

With a sharp crack of thunder, the Thunder Tiger Claw slammed viciously into Hua An's back with the force of lightning, and in an instant, Hua An's body went limp and collapsed.

As he lay dying, he gazed in the direction of Cao Wang, coughing up blood, his lips slightly parted, murmuring, "Brother, run..."

"Wang Hu, you son of a bitch!"

Seeing Hua An die tragically, Cao Wang flipped his wrist, and the Thunder Talisman that Shen Jingqiu had given him appeared in his hand.

Just as he was about to kill Wang Hu, a low shout suddenly came from not far away: "Wang Hu, run! The patrol team is coming!"

Three inner disciples from a short distance away arrived at Wang Hu's side in the blink of an eye. Then, two of them grabbed his shoulders on either side and disappeared from the path in an instant.

Wang Hu wanted to turn back and deal with Cao Wang, but was stopped by the three inner disciples.

On the narrow path, Cao Wang glared at Wang Hu, while Wang Hu looked back at Cao Wang with resentment.

Just after they left, the patrol team's disciples rushed to the scene.

Upon seeing Hua An's body, they immediately arrested Cao Wang.

"What are you doing? I didn't do it. It was Wang Hu from the outer sect and three inner sect disciples who did it. They ran away from here. Go after them quickly."

The leading patrolling disciple sneered, "In this desolate wilderness, you're all alone. Who else could it be but you? Take him away."

The patrolling disciples didn't give Cao Wang a chance to explain and arrested him directly.

Meanwhile, after Wang Hu and his men reached safety, Wang Hu said resentfully:

"Cousin, Uncle, I can't quell my hatred without killing that guy. Don't stop me, I only need one breath to kill him."

Now look what's happened. They failed to kill the kid and were discovered by the law enforcement team. This is troublesome.

One of them sneered, "What's the rush over such a small matter?"

We know people in the outer sect's enforcement team. They haven't returned yet, so we'll go over there now and smooth things over. We'll just falsely accuse that guy of being the murderer. You won't even need to lift a finger; he'll be arrested by the enforcement hall.

Wang Hu's eyes lit up immediately, and he urged, "That's great! Let's go, let's go!"
