Mo Hua took out the topographical map of the Wild Mountain outside Nanyue City.

It was called a topographical map, but its material was rough and its lines simple, with only a few mountain ranges hastily sketched out. There was nothing else on it.

This stretch of Wild Mountain was seldom visited by people, so there were no detailed maps.

The one in Mo Hua's hands had been obtained from Situ Fang before. It was a terrain map of mountains and rivers recorded by the Nanyue City Dao Court Office.

Recalling the trail of light on the Sinan Compass, Mo Hua traced Zhang Quan's movements onto the map.

Zhang Quan's path appeared chaotic, but all his routes were concentrated in the forest between two peaks east of Wild Mountain.

He had come here to return to his lair.

Therefore, the place where he refined and hid corpses had to be nearby.

And in order to evade pursuit, he certainly would not dare linger around his lair.

So his lair was most likely west of the area where he had been circling around.

The two places were separated by a great mountain, facing each other from afar.

Mo Hua voiced his guess.

Bai Zisheng asked skeptically, "How did you know that?"

"I'm a Monster Hunter," Mo Hua said. "I often track demon beasts in the mountains. This is the basics for a Monster Hunter."

"But Zhang Quan isn't a demon beast."

"More or less. In any case, he can hardly count as human anymore. His habits are probably very similar to those of demon beasts."

Bai Zisheng nodded, then asked, "What if you guessed wrong?"

"Then I guessed wrong. It doesn't really matter," Mo Hua said indifferently.

Bai Zisheng sighed. "Fine..."

They had to search anyway. Having a direction was better
