The White-Clothed Man appeared to be severely injured; he was now traveling on the wind, landing several dozen meters in front of Chen Wang.

Leaning against a blue stone, he took out a bottle of pills from his robes and swallowed them. His face was extremely pale. Chen Wang frowned. This person had just fled in another direction; he hadn't expected to encounter him here again.

It appears they traveled here on the wind in order to escape the disciples of the Red Cloud Sect.

"His movement was very skillful."

Chen Wang thought to himself silently.

The Red Cloud Sect Disciple disciples had acted swiftly earlier, but unexpectedly, the White-Clothed Man still managed to escape.

The White-Clothed Man stood up. His injuries had been brought under control. He turned to look at Chen Wang, who was standing dozens of meters away, his eyes flashing with murderous intent. "Don't make a sound, or I'll kill you!"

The White-Clothed Man shouted in a deep voice.

Judging from Chen Wang's attire and the direction he was heading, he was likely a rogue cultivator from this Slum Area. At this moment, Chen Wang was carrying five jin of Spirit Rice and two jin of Demon Beast Meat in a cloth bag. He looked slightly nervous, but given his young age, he posed no threat. It seemed that Chen Wang had left the Market earlier to buy basic supplies, which he hadn't put in his Storage Bag but carried in his hand.

What do you want to do?

Chen Wang's eyes darted around, clearly showing some nervousness, and he unconsciously hugged the Spirit Rice and the Demon Beast Meat in his arms tighter.

Seeing Chen Wang's poor condition, the White-Clothed Man had a hint of mockery in his eyes, but he still spoke gently on the surface, "Don't worry, as long as you don't make a sound, I won't hurt you. But if you do make a sound, don't blame me for being merciless with my sword."

The White-Clothed Man spoke, his long sword gleaming coldly and extremely sharp. Chen Wang clutched the Spirit Rice tightly in his arms, looking as if facing a formidable enemy.

At this moment, he silently unleashed his spiritual power.

"Has this person managed to shake off the pursuit of the Red Cloud Sect Disciple?"

Chen Wang silently analyzed the situation and sensed the surrounding atmosphere. This place was already somewhat remote, and no one came here.

The White-Clothed Man said calmly, "Come here without worry. I just want to exchange clothes with you. This Spirit Stone will be your reward."

He then took out a Low-Grade Spirit Stone from his person and threw it on the ground.

"Come over here, put your clothes down, then take the Spirit Stone. We'll go our separate ways."

The White-Clothed Man's clothes were extremely eye-catching, not only because they were white but also because they were stained with a lot of blood. Therefore, he took a liking to Chen Wang was about the same size as him.

Chen Wang hesitated for a moment. "You won't hurt me, will you?"

His eyes showed a slight tension, but upon seeing the Spirit Stone, they couldn't help but shine, perfectly fitting the image of a naive young man. The layers of emotion in his eyes were very rich.

The White-Clothed Man chuckled upon seeing this, "With my Autumn Water Sword, killing you would be a piece of cake. One Spirit Stone for a new outfit, what are you still worried about?"

The man wasn't in a hurry to escape, but instead made a deal with him. Chen Wang spread his mental energy but didn't find any trace of the Red Cloud Sect Disciple. At this point, he could basically conclude that this person had already shaken off the Red Cloud Sect Disciple.

Chen Wang looked at the Spirit Stone on the ground, his eyes shining, and walked forward, clutching the Spirit Rice and Demon Beast Meat in his hands.

Just now, he was dozens of meters away from this man, but soon they were seven or eight meters apart, his eyes fixed on the man's long sword.

The White-Clothed Man sneered inwardly, "This rogue cultivator is not only lacking in talent, but also incredibly stupid. There's no such thing as a free lunch!"

He had just escaped the pursuit of several Red Cloud Sect Disciples, but his Law Power was greatly depleted, and he was also seriously injured. He only managed to shake off the others by using his flying technique.

Unexpectedly, this place was so remote that I used up too much of my Law Power and had to land.

"No survivors must be left."

murderous intent flashed in the White-Clothed Man's eyes.

He was quite badly injured, so he wanted to lure Chen Wang closer and then kill him with one blow!

As Chen Wang approached, the White-Clothed Man was about to make a move, but the movement aggravated his wounds, causing him to turn pale. However, Chen Wang seemed oblivious to this, his eyes fixed solely on the Spirit Stone on the ground.

The White-Clothed Man thought to himself, "Luckily, it's just an inexperienced kid."

He swallowed a mouthful of hot blood and said, "Young brother, could you sell me the Demon Beast Meat and Spirit Rice you have in your arms? I'll pay a high price."

The White-Clothed Man smiled gently, intentionally trying to lower Chen Wang's guard. As he spoke, he took out three more Spirit Stone from his robes.

"I'll buy this from you for three Spirit Stones."

A light shone in Chen Wang's eyes, and he said hesitantly, "Really?"

It gives people a feeling of being flattered.

The White-Clothed Man sneered inwardly, but said outwardly, "Of course it's true. Cash on delivery."

At this point, the two were even closer together.

Chen Wang walked over to him, his gaze falling on the Spirit Stone in the man's hand. The man unconsciously tightened his grip on his longsword and urged him on.

"Come here quickly."

Three meters, two meters, the distance between the two was getting closer and closer. The White-Clothed Man couldn't help but smile, his eyes turned cold, and he suddenly swung his sword down, a sinister smile on his face!

At that moment, the young man, who had been somewhat reserved and greedy, suddenly looked up.

His gaze was extremely cold, and there was an unspeakable sense of mockery in it!

The two were extremely close, and Chen Wang punched the White-Clothed Man squarely in the nose. Boom! The White-Clothed Man didn't even have time to react before his head caved in, killing him instantly!

The long sword in his hand had just been raised, the white light had just flashed, and the Sword Qi had not yet fully condensed.

Chen Wang quickly searched the man's body, including the longsword in his hand. He found several bottles of pills and a Talisman Paper in the man's arms. He then put the man's belongings into his Storage Bag.

He then dragged the body to a secluded rock and, with a whoosh, cast two Fireball Techniques, burning the White-Clothed Man's body to ashes. He then used Quicksand Art to erase the traces.

Then Chen Wang quickly left with the Spirit Rice and Demon Beast Meat.

Soon, Chen Wang returned to the Slum Area.

No trace of the Red Cloud Sect Disciple was found along the way.

A cultivator saw Chen Wang and greeted him, "Xiao Chen, going to buy rice?"

Chen Wang nodded, his smile gentle, "Yes, we've run out of Spirit Rice at home."

The cultivator couldn't help but laugh when he saw the Demon Beast Meat in Chen Wang's hand, "Eating less meat means you can go to the brothels more often, isn't that wonderful?"

Chen Wang smiled and said, "I can't even afford to eat properly, how can I have the mind for that?"

The cultivator nodded and sighed, "That's true. Your family is so poor, you should eat more meat to grow stronger."

Chen Wang: "..."

Back in his room, Chen Wang put away the Spirit Rice and the Demon Beast Meat, then took out the items he had collected from his Storage Bag. Chen Wang glanced at the items in his hand and smiled slightly, "I feel embarrassed being so close."
