Although Sword Demon hadn't said much, Chi Xue had figured out what he wanted from his orders. His own goals weren't far from Sword Demon's, either.
Chi Xue had also cultivated the Arrow Embryo, and his archery skills were quite good. Most importantly, the Artifact Spirit of Heaven-Piercer was of an extremely high level—even higher than that of Fairy Sword Ji's ancient sword. Such a treasure was something everyone wanted to claim for themselves. Chi Xue was no different, and he would never hand it over to Sword Demon.
"Now all that's left is to find Ling Tian," the Jade Devouring Sky Python said, looking at Chi Xue. "Lingxiao Pavilion established a sect base in the northern region of the God Realm. Now that they've offended Sword Demon, they must be worried he'll bring experts from Divine Sword Cliff to take revenge later, so they'll surely move the entire sect. Chi Xue, where do you think Ling Tian and the others will go?"
"I'd say there's a nine-in-ten chance they're still in the northern region of the God Realm. They've just moved somewhere else," Chi Xue replied. Seeing the Jade Devouring Sky Python's puzzled expression, he explained, "The most dangerous place is the safest place. Sword Demon and the others probably wouldn't think Ling Tian would dare stay in the northern region after being discovered. And that's exactly what happened: the Thorn Alliance and Huan Xin Pavilion haven't focused their attention there at all."
"Mm, that's certainly possible." The Jade Devouring Sky Python nodded, then shook its head as another thought occurred to it. "Chi Xue, that might not be the case. We know Ling Tian, and Ling Tian knows us. He must have guessed that we'd figure out he might hide in the northern region of the God Realm.
