Where does that wicked woman get her conscience?

Chapter 113 People I Know

No matter how subtle the movement behind him, it could not escape Guan Xun's ears and eyes.

Just as the attack was about to touch her, she simply tilted her waist slightly and easily dodged it.

At the same time, the speed of the flight increased.

Why do the people of the Holy Light Temple always attack others so easily? It must be because they are protected by the name of the Holy Light Temple, and they are used to being arrogant.

There were quite a few people around watching what was happening, so Guan Xun didn't make a move rashly.

Otherwise, at best, a bounty would be placed on his face now, and at worst, he would be recognized.

If she is recognized, the huge bounty might cause those around her to shift their focus and attack her.

Seeing that the person in front of her didn't take her seriously at all, Tai Shi Muxue's face turned red with anger. As the shadow in front of her gradually blurred, she could only accelerate as fast as she could, but she still couldn't catch up by even a fraction.

This is the direction we're heading towards Moxi City. When did such a powerful person appear in the city? How come she hasn't heard of him?

Recalling the other person's slender waist just now, Taishi Muxue seemed to realize something. She gritted her teeth and said, "Could it be the person on Father's wanted list who killed Second Sister and Yue'er?!"

……

Crossing the massive Scorching Sun Mountain Range was no easy feat. Guan Xun traveled for quite some time without stopping, and had only just reached the central part of the mountain range.

The magma activity here is not as high as in the surrounding area; there are mostly rock strata of varying heights.

People from all directions were gathering at this moment, heading towards Burning Phoenix Manor. They had been traveling for a long time without stopping and were taking a short rest.

Each of them exuded a powerful aura, and most of them had cold expressions on their faces.

That makes sense. The people gathered here are only competitors, and when interests are at stake, they naturally can't be brothers.

Some people are still in conflict with each other for reasons unknown.

As Guan Xun landed, many wary gazes swept over her, all scrutinizing her with probing eyes. When they realized that her strength was only around level 30, they all disdainfully withdrew their gazes.

Some people even chuckled softly without any attempt to hide it.

Guan Xun didn't care; she was hiding her strength precisely to avoid attracting attention.

A quick glance around revealed several young men and women with spirit pets surrounding the rock formation. Although they were young, their strength was quite impressive.

The spiritual masters in Zhongzhou are much stronger overall than those in the capital.

soon--

Familiar sounds came from behind.

Tai Shi Muxue had barely landed when she quickly scanned her surroundings. When she saw that somewhat familiar figure in white, she immediately strode over to him.

She wanted to see if he was really the person on the wanted poster!

If it is true, we must inform my father and the elders so they can come and arrest her!

Before she could say anything, a girl leaning against a large rock formation not far ahead called out loudly.

"Hey, who's this? Isn't it Taishi Muxue?"

The strangely familiar voice made Taishi Muxue stop abruptly in her tracks. She turned around and looked over, her face instantly contorted with anger: "How come it's you!"

"Anyone can come, why can't it be me? What, are you happy to see you? Is it because you still remember the kick that knocked you to the ground last time?"

As soon as the girl finished her sarcastic remark, the people surrounding her burst into laughter, making no attempt to hide their mockery.

Enraged, Shi Muxue's face turned pale. She stood there arguing with them, momentarily forgetting what she had intended to do.

The people around were happy to watch the show.

As more and more people traveled, some continued on their way without stopping, while others simply rested briefly before setting off again.

After casually glancing around, Guan Xun wasted no more time and followed the backs of those people.

……

Amidst the thick fog of the mountains, Guan Xun's figure flashed out.

The further you go into the mountains, the thicker the black smoke becomes, carrying intense heat and mixed with some inexplicable energy fluctuations.

It must be the energy emitted by the divine beast they were talking about, but it's a bit strange because Chi Rong couldn't sense any divine beast aura.

The smoke obstructed visibility, and the map of Moxi City did not indicate the direction of the mountain exit, making it easy for people to lose their way.

Fortunately, Guan Xun's divine sense was able to detect the movements of the people around her, otherwise she would have wandered around aimlessly like a headless fly.

However, the people around her were scattered in all directions, and she couldn't be sure if they could accurately pinpoint the location of the exit.

If they don't know the way either and are just wandering around aimlessly, it would be a waste of her time to follow them.

Guan Xun stood still and pondered for a while, then suddenly leaped up and landed on the rim of the tallest volcano in the vicinity.

Boiling magma beneath her feet, billowing black smoke rising continuously, an instant feeling of suffocation washed over her. She frowned, quickly releasing her divine sense, extending it over a hundred miles around, while constantly observing the surrounding situation.

Soon, she was astonished to discover that no matter where the volcano was located, the black smoke it emitted was all heading in the same direction, and that direction was exactly where she had come from.

To the left of the mountain range, a thin stream of intense heat was relentlessly attacking, forcing them to change direction.

"With such energy, it seems the exit of the mountain range is over there..."

Guan Xun parted his thin lips slightly, and as his eyes flashed, his divine sense, which was a hundred miles away, also touched a barrier that blocked his path. The weak energy was emanating from inside the barrier.

"Is that the Burning Phoenix Manor?" she exclaimed in surprise.

It seems the opening time hasn't arrived yet, which is why it's blocked by the barrier.

After confirming the location, Guan Xun didn't linger. He immediately leaped into the air and sped off in that direction. When he landed, the people passing by were so frightened that they crashed into the rock formations and started cursing loudly behind him.

Leaving the central area, we entered the active part of the mountain range, where lava was spewing out and honeycomb-like lava-devouring crocodiles were constantly launching attacks.

Guan Xun moved swiftly, ignoring them, and continued forward recklessly.

Suddenly, an orange figure flashed in front of her, slowing her down.

She hadn't seen many people along the way, and she was surprised to find that someone was ahead of her.

Guan Xun darted to the side, his toes landing lightly on a relatively hidden rock formation, making no sound whatsoever.

As soon as they stood still, several crocodiles were slammed into their direction, causing a commotion in the surrounding area.

This person is no ordinary individual; he can take down several enormous crocodiles with a single strike.

Guan Xun shifted his gaze from the magma-swallowing crocodile to the figure whose clothing was almost blending into the magma.

The woman was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a very spirited face. Her long hair was casually tied into a ponytail without any accessories. Paired with her tight-fitting clothes, she looked quite like a young man.

Holding a long spear, she was fighting with the crocodiles around her. Perhaps due to the high temperature and the fact that she had been fighting for quite some time, her forehead was covered in sweat, but even so, she did not show any signs of fatigue.

With a firm grip on his spear and his body straight, he thrust it without hesitation at the charging crocodile. In a lightning-fast exchange, a flash of golden-green spiritual energy passed by, and the crocodile crashed to the ground.

The strikes were exceptionally accurate and swift.

"Huh?" Guan Xun's gaze swept across her face, a hint of doubt appearing between his brows.

"I feel like I've seen her somewhere before."
