Chapter 371: Self-satisfaction

Herb Mountain.

After Qin Lie took the Spatial Spirit Stones and disappeared, Song Zhi’s expression looked somewhat startled. He was momentarily struck with panic.

From what he could ascertain, Qin Lie was able to teleport into Herb Mountain using a spatial spirit artifact.

Song Zhi had thought that Herb Mountain was the artifact’s destination point, and by extension, that every Horned Demon clansman was hiding inside of it..

However, Qin Lie’s sudden disappearance clearly seemed strange, signifying that the receiving end of the spatial spirit artifact wasn’t actually at Herb Mountain.

“How strange, really…” Song Zhi frowned deeply.

He didn’t see that Song Tingyu’s beautiful face was already covered with frost and her shoulders were trembling slightly. Her bright eyes shone with a ruthless icy chill.

“You actually followed me!” Song Tingyu gritted her teeth, her expression ashen. She had never been this angry before.

At the same time, Xie Jinxuan’s harsh shouting echoed from a distance. “Second Uncle, why are you here?”

Xie Jingxuan, wearing a uniformly white garment, glowered at Xie Zhizhang, her face also filled with icy frost.

At the foot of Herb Mountain, Xie Zhizhang laughed in an embarrassed manner and explained, “I heard that you and Song Tingyu had secretly left Profound Heaven Alliance and gone toward Ling Town. Your father isn’t… certain about you, and he had me follow you to keep an eye on things.”

He had actually come with Song Zhi.

Qin Lie and evil races had suddenly disappeared, making Profound Heaven Alliance, Eight Extreme Temple, and Joyful Union Sect extremely anxious. The three great forces were so anxious that they went to extreme measures to find Qin Lie.

They secretly monitored everyone in the Scarlet Tide Continent who had close relations with Qin Lie.

After waiting for a while, they discovered that the whereabouts of Song Tingyu and Xie Jingxuan seemed suspicious. Song Zhi and Xie Zhizhang stealthily tracked them down almost immediately, moderating their breathing for the entire journey, and they cautiously arrived at Ling Town.

“Keep an eye on me?” Xie Jingxuan was just as angry as Song Tingyu. “You’ve been following us the entire time, huh?”

She saw that Song Zhi was next to Song Tingyu.

“We had no choice but to do so. This matter is one of great concern.” Xie Zhizhang wore a helpless expression.

“You girls are always letting emotions affect your decision-making. We didn’t have any choice but to do this.” Halfway up the mountain, Song Zhi laughed in spite of Song Tingyu’s glare and said, “Don’t you see? If it we hadn’t come, Qin Lie and the evil races would have easily escaped. The plan that Profound Heaven Alliance has been working on for so long… wouldn’t all our efforts have gone to waste?”

“I hadn’t expected that you wouldn’t even trust us!” Song Tingyu’s heart went completely cold.

“When it came to Qin Lie, you girls were excessively loyal and disregarded the interest of our clans,” Song Zhi said honestly, sizing them up.

“Soon, all of the Scarlet Tide Continent’s peak experts will gather here.” Xie Zhizhang looked toward Herb Mountain with a heavy expression and said, “This time, no matter how many of the evil races are hiding within Herb Mountain, they won’t be able to escape.”
