"Tch! That seemed to come from where we were resting!" Wang Yan muttered. Without hesitation, he hurried over to the pit, several feet deep, where the black-clad masked cultivator had been blasted away. The Thousand Spirit Arrow lay intact beside it, stained with quite a bit of blood. The masked cultivator had been blown apart; he could not have been any deader...
"This talisman!" After a lightning-fast search, Wang Yan held up the Golden Light Shield Defense Talisman the masked cultivator had put away, delighted. He had never had much in the way of defensive treasures, and this talisman was certainly a fine one...

"...Anyway, let's go back and look! We didn't actually see Ye Shisan die!" Wang Yan said gravely, without answering her question. "There are still three Black-Clad Masked Cultivators' bodies over there we haven't searched. Maybe we'll find something good?"
"Tch! Hehe! You still don't want Ye Shisan to die, do you?" Card Fairy persisted, giggling...
"I suppose not!" Wang Yan replied. "Neither do you, right? He practiced your cultivation method, after all!"
"Uh... true! For him
