"Still, confirming that it was one of them meant there was something worth probing. Dragon Egg or not, those two were both carrying quite a fortune."
Midway through his words, the sinister look in Linghu Yu's eyes vanished, replaced by chilling killing intent and naked greed.
As an Evil Cultivator, he had always acted as he pleased, without the slightest restraint. The thought of killing was commonplace to him, as simple and natural as breathing or meditating.
As he spoke, Yu Yangzi beside him wore a thoughtful look and showed no sign of speaking for a long while.
Linghu Yu hurriedly asked, "Does Fellow Daoist Yu Yangzi have some concern?"
Only then did Yu Yangzi say, "This Young Master was merely wondering where the other person went!"
Linghu Yu frowned slightly. "Keeping an eye on this one is enough. Why bother with that other fellow? As long as we take this man down, the spirit crystal resources on him alone will be enough for the two of us to eat until our bellies are full and our pockets overflow, no?"
Yu Yangzi continued, "But the problem is, those two clearly left together, one after the other. Yet... why is only this person alone now? Could there be some trick behind this?"
As a cultivator of Zi Shuang Pavilion, Yu Yangzi was clearly much more cautious in his actions. After all, Zi Shuang Pavilion was renowned throughout the cultivation world for its well-informed intelligence network and its arts of assassination. ??
"A trick? Probably not. Judging from the earlier auction, of those two Rogue Cultivators who acted the most high-profile, one truly seemed to conduct himself flamboyantly and ultimately succeeded in buying the Dragon Egg."
Seeing Yu Yangzi so full of misgivings, Linghu Yu frowned faintly and immediately continued his analysis.
