When Lin Bai found only Liang Ke, Zhong Yuan, and Zheng Fang among the Fire Lizard Clan, all the doubts in his heart seemed to have found the key that would unlock them.
Zhou Xi and Sun Yao had not been in the Eternal Devil Sect for long. How could they possibly have provoked such powerful enemies?
If they had angered some formidable foes in Mountain Province after arriving there, then what kind of grudge could be deep enough for those people to hunt Zhou Xi and Sun Yao for several months?
That left only one possibility: the people who had traveled with Zhou Xi and Sun Yao had provoked those powerful enemies. Zhou Xi and Sun Yao had merely been caught in the crossfire. However, before reaching the Fire Lizard Clan, Zhou Xi and Sun Yao had fled separately from Zhong Yuan, Liang Ke, and the others. Those people had not gone after Zhong Yuan and Liang Ke. Instead, they had pursued Zhou Xi and Sun Yao.
When Lin Bai saw the three men within the Fire Lizard Clan, everything became even clearer in his mind.
Those martial artists hunting Zhou Xi and Sun Yao had not come for Zhou Xi and Sun Yao. They had come for Lin Bai!
As for who had arranged this pursuit, Lin Bai had already guessed more or less. His expression grew increasingly ugly.
Cedar Valley had been where Liang Ke, Zhou Xi, and the others had taken refuge before. They had hidden there for more than ten days to heal their injuries. Later, when they noticed that those people had caught up, they had been forced to flee first. They had agreed to return to Cedar Valley immediately after shaking off their pursuers.
"Senior Brother Qing Luo, Cedar Valley is just ahead."
