A Man Suddenly Appears!

Although it's said that this person's personality led to murder!

But he always felt something was amiss, so he went back to ask the Sage Scholar!

On the way back, Ye Jing kept his brows furrowed, his heart filled with doubt and unease.

He repeatedly pondered the various details of the mission, trying to find something amiss.

Does this mean the Heaven and Earth Cataclysm are about to end prematurely, and the Heavenly Court is already preparing to reap the rewards?

Was that person just testing the waters?

Otherwise, why would anyone openly massacre villagers and disrupt the Heavenly Court's plans under such circumstances?

As Ye Jing pondered this, he flew rapidly.

"Call out!"

Suddenly, an arrow was shot straight at his forehead!

Ye Jing waved his hand and knocked the arrow away!

Who is it?

He stopped and looked around warily.

Sun Lihuan and the others also became vigilant!

All around was silent, except for the rustling of leaves in the wind.

Ye Jing frowned; he could sense a sense of crisis approaching.

Sudden.

"Call out!"

Another arrow shot towards Ye Jing.

"Stop with these petty tricks, okay? They're ineffective. If you dared to make a move, why don't you show your face?"

Ye Jing casually deflected the arrow again, frowning as he shouted.

He couldn't even sense the other person's location; the other person was either a master or possessed a powerful treasure!

However, judging from the arrow's strength, it should be the latter.

There was no response!

"Do you really think I have no other options?"

Ye Jing's pupils narrowed, and starting from a crisp sound deep within his Divine Soul, ripples spread out from Ye Jing, covering the entire forest!

"Found you!"

Ye Jing twirled his spirit sword and swung it in one direction!

"The Sword Opens Heavenly Gate!"

The terrifying Sword Qi was incredibly fast!

"No!"

A terrified scream rang out, and a figure rushed out of the bushes in a disheveled state, clutching a longbow in his hand, but it was too late to defend against Ye Jing's attack.

The Sword Qi surged like a rainbow, instantly blasting the figure away. Blood spurted out, staining the surrounding trees and grass red.

"Captain, this..."

Sun Lihuan and the others looked around warily, fearing there might be an ambush.

"It's alright, it's been taken care of. Let's go check if he's dead."

Ye Jing sheathed his spirit sword and said calmly.

"Yes!"

Sun Lihuan immediately flew over, initially worried that the other party might retaliate in the face of death, but when she saw the black blood at the corner of Black Infant's mouth...

They knew the other person had already died from the poison!

"Captain, the creature has been bitten by a poisonous bite!" she shouted.

"Yes, come back!" Ye Jing nodded calmly, as expected; he had been holding back just now!

He felt no unease about killing his opponent; it was his own doing.

"Captain, who was that person just now?"

Sun Lihuan returned to Ye Jing's side and asked curiously.

"Have no idea."

Ye Jing shook his head; the other person was too strange!

They're not strong enough, yet they keep bothering me!

Ye Jing raised his hand in the air, and the Storage Bag and token on that figure slowly flew towards him!

The Storage Bag were confiscated.

Ye Jing raised an eyebrow at the token, thinking it was similar to the one made by the Heavenly Court that he had encountered before!

But when I got my hands on it and looked at it, I realized something was wrong!

This wasn't made in Heavenly Court, but it's here.

Besides the Heavenly Court and the Heaven Slaying Society, are there any other organizations?

"So what do we do now?"

Sun Lihuan asked again.

"Let's go back; it's not safe here anymore."

Ye Jing said, put the token in his pocket, and then led the way, flying back in the direction they had come from.

Sun Lihuan and the others followed closely behind, their hearts filled with awe and admiration for Ye Jing.

There must be a deeper reason behind the appearance of this man.

He decided that once he got back, he would definitely ask the Sage Scholar for some clues.

After they left, in the shadows, a pair of round eyes watched the direction Ye Jing and the others had gone.

They quickly returned to the camp!

Ye Jing gave the Sage Scholar a detailed report of the situation, and then raised his own questions.

After listening to Ye Jing's account, the Sage Scholar looked at the token in his hand, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly said, "This matter is indeed somewhat strange. I will send people to investigate; you should not make a fuss about it for now."

"Yes, senior," Ye Jing nodded in response.

For the next few days, Ye Jing was either studying formations or being sent out on missions!

He discovered that more and more villages were being affected, which made him feel that something was wrong, as if something big was about to happen!

Because of his 'All Things Understood' ability, he knew that something big was about to happen!

He was also waiting for the results of the investigation by the Sage Scholar.

Finally, one night a few days later, the Sage Scholar found him.

"Ye Jing, I've investigated thoroughly," the Sage Scholar said bluntly. "That person is definitely not from the Heavenly Court."

"What?"

Ye Jing raised an eyebrow. "Then who exactly is he?"

"We don't yet know which side is behind this," the Sage Scholar slowly shook his head. "We also don't know if it's infiltrated from another world or a newly emerging force here!"

"A new force?" Ye Jing frowned. "Could it be that besides the Heavenly Court and the Heaven Slaying Society, there are other forces secretly plotting?"

"Yes, this is the situation I'm most worried about," the Sage Scholar nodded and said. "If this force is an ally, that's fine, but if it's an enemy, then it will be very troublesome."

"So what should we do next?" Ye Jing asked.

"We can't yet ascertain their intentions and strength, so we need to prepare for both possibilities." The Sage Scholar pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "I need to change camps. Staying here for too long carries a high risk of exposure. Secondly, I'd like to ask you for a favor. Apart from the people from that organization you met last time, none of our other members have been seen, so..."

"I want to test whether they're right to come because of me? Are they using me as bait?" Ye Jing instantly understood the Sage Scholar's idea!

"Yes, but it's a last resort," the Sage Scholar sighed. "If they're really after you, then you're the perfect bait. Of course, I'll ensure your safety and won't put you in any real danger."

Ye Jing was silent for a moment, then slowly nodded. "I understand, I'm willing to give it a try."

"Alright, then get ready, we'll set off tomorrow." The Sage Scholar patted Ye Jing on the shoulder, then turned and left.

Ye Jing stood there, feeling somewhat helpless. This was the downside of joining the organization—a mountain of things to do!

However, if the other party is really targeting me, then I will investigate no matter what!

The next day.

Ye Jing sets off alone!

Sun Lihuan and other team members were busy moving the campsite!

Ye Jing flew alone in the air, making no special effort to conceal his presence!

He wanted to see if the other party had really come because of him.

Soon after, Ye Jing felt a faint sense of being watched; sure enough, someone was observing him from the shadows.
