Chapter 481: Chapter 481

Soon after Xiao Jinting left, Bing Wu appeared where Bing Cheng died.

Sensing her presence, Bing Ning came over and said, “Ancestor, Bing Cheng got killed.”

Bing Wu nodded and said sadly, “I know. After he died, the mark I left on him reacted. I traced it here. Who killed him?”

Bing Ning said in terror, “It’s Xiao Jinting.”

She thought to herself, “Xiao Jinting is too powerful. If I hadn’t run away in time, I would have been killed.” She regretted telling Bing Wu about her suspicion of Xiao Jinting. She couldn’t undo the things, and the hatred between them would not vanish.

Bing Wu’s face darkened. She knew that Bing Cheng had been tracking down Xiao Jinting, and she had given him her tacit consent. However, she had repeatedly told Bing Cheng not to make any moves if he met Xiao Jinting. She asked him to inform her first, but Bing Cheng didn’t listen to her.

Bing Ning bit her lip and said frightfully, “Xiao Jinting is very powerful. He killed Bing Cheng with only five moves.”

Bing Wu sighed and said, “I told Bing Cheng not to underestimate anyone, for there are many people better than him, but he wouldn’t listen to me.”

Bing Ning asked, “Ancestor, can you track down Xiao Jinting?”

Bing Wu shook her head and said, “I’m afraid not.”

Bing Ning asked in confusion, “Why? Doesn’t your Soul Tracking Mark work?” Many Deity Transformation cultivators left their Soul Tracking Marks on their closest disciples. If the disciples died, the masters would feel it right away and rush to the spot.

Soul Tracking Marks were different from ordinary soul marks. They consumed quite a lot of energy of the Deity Transformation. Only Bing Ning and Bing Cheng had the Soul Tracking Marks of Bing Wu in the whole Ice Palace.

Bing Ning muttered, “Only cultivators at the same level can erase Soul Tracking Marks, right?”

Bing Wu said sullenly, “Xiao Jinting’s soul force is unusually strong. I guess he’s not inferior to me in that.”

Bing Ning widened her eyes and said in disbelief, “No way.”

Bing Wu felt heavy. Xiao Jinting improved his strength unusually fast. She had become his enemy, and it was too late to stop.

Bing Cheng was the genius cultivator in Ice Palace, so his death couldn’t be concealed. However, Ice Palace didn’t announce that Xiao Jinting killed Bing Cheng, so everyone thought that Bing Cheng was killed by a mysterious master.

…

After he killed Bing Cheng, Xiao Jinting hid away again. A few months later, he received a message on his transmission jade. He read it and frowned, flying towards the island mentioned in the message.

At Green Cloud Immortal Sect.

Lin Xue’e said, “Mr. Dongcheng, Senior Chen is seriously injured. He has got stuck on a small island.”

A rumor circulated across the world that Chen Lifeng took a Deity Transformation Pill from the tomb of an elder of the Huangfu family. To take everything from the tomb, Chen Lifeng killed all his partners including Xiao Jinting.

At first, very few people believed the rumor. After all, Huangfu Xuan was more powerful than Chen Lifeng, who couldn’t possibly kill the former. However, someone saw Chen Lifeng holding the seal of Huangfu Xuan. Most of the people came to believe the rumor.

Many advanced Nascent Souls couldn’t resist the temptation and chased Chen Lifeng, who hid well. However, Chen Lifeng seemed to get into big trouble recently.

Dongcheng Yang said helplessly, “Senior Chen is unlucky this time.”

Lin Xue’e asked, “Shall we go save him?”

Dongcheng Yang shook his head and said, “No, we shouldn’t interfere with fights on this level.”

Lin Xue’e said, “It’s said that Elder Xiao got killed by Chen Lifeng.”

Dongcheng Yang sneered. “Nonsense. If Xiao Jing died, Xu Muan would not be so calm.” Chen Lifeng was close to Xiao Jinting, so he wouldn’t go against him. Even if Chen Lifeng didn’t resist the temptation and attacked Xiao Jinting, he would be the one who got killed.

Bing Cheng from Ice Palace died, and the old witch was looking for Xiao Jinting everywhere. Dongcheng Yang felt that the death of Bing Cheng had something to do with Xiao Jinting. If Xiao Jinting knew that Chen Lifeng was in trouble, he would go help him.”

…

Xiao Jinting found the island mentioned in the message. There were many cultivators there.

He concealed his strength and pretended to be a Golden Core before he landed on the island.

A fat Golden Core hurried to greet him, “Hello, mister. Are you looking for Devil Chen?”

Xiao Jinting paused. Did Chen Lifeng turn into Devil Chen during the years?

He asked in surprise, “Devil Chen?”
