The Demon Swordsman 2
Ch. 95 - Two Robed Men
Xin Chen could only stand at his perch, he did not understand at all Ye Long was gesturing for what. Xin Chen's head grew even more dizzy as he recalled the Steel Phoenix and he had to seize it right now. "Ye Long, I don't have time to play around right now. Quickly return to the Lightning Fox before she electrocutes you."
Ye Long went berserk, he groped Xin Chen's feet with his tail and turned his head forward. Forcing Xin Chen to look in the same direction anyway.
Xin Chen raised next to his brows, then looked back towards the random circle that Ye Long had made. "That's... did you create the shape of Shengyou Village?"
Ye Long nodded twice.
"And the signs you circled? Tu-wait don't tell me you know where the Steel Phoenix Sword was brought?!"
Ye Long nodded three times. Xin Chen was speechless, the dragon was really helpful in this kind of situation.
"So you followed me? You also saw when the Steel Phoenix Sword was stolen?"
Ye Long nodded happily, just like Xin Chen. The Black Dragon had only intended to help him solve this problem. Ye Long was not at home locked in the inn room with the Thunder Fox because he was used to living in the open.
While escaping Ye Long managed to break the window of the inn and just blur. Whether the Lightning Fox was conscious or not, Ye Long himself was already a little familiar with the Lightning Fox how. The fox's electric shock won't make him die even if he has to suffer.
As Ye Long's escape followed wherever Xin Chen was, unfortunately he was a bit late realizing when something bad happened. The Steel Phoenix Sword was stolen from Xin Chen and Ye Long directly followed the demon that stole it from above.
Relying on his extremely sharp sense of hearing was not difficult to trace where the snake stealth had gone. And also as a fellow demon he could feel the same air as him.
By the time Ye Long had figured out the location he had immediately returned and what had happened was what Xin Chen had seen.
Ye Long smashed into the enemy very hard before the dagger pierced Xin Chen's eyes. Then it burned everyone who was most likely fighting him as well.
Now Ye Long again pointed his nails at the points he marked with fire. Xin Chen was sure the place Ye Long meant was the point where they stood.
The second location that Ye Long pointed to was west of Shengyou, Xin Chen immediately saw the approximate location that was likely to the end of the village until a red-tiered tower was seen. The place was so different from the other buildings that Xin Chen could recognize it easily.
Behind the tower Xin Chen could estimate the vast courtyard inside. It was likely the headquarters where the people from the Four Surveillance Units had gathered.
"Uncle Jin Sakai said they were only ten people, but their place was already very luxurious for the size of ten people. It is likely that these Four Surveillance Units are an elite force that is indeed tasked with tracking down the existence of the Sky Heirloom.." Xin Chen said slowly, "Ye Long we should go there as soon as possible."
Before he could even move his legs further Xin Chen was startled by a hushed voice from behind.
"I'd like to go anywhere there isn't. It turns out you two are here." Xin Chen shuddered in horror as he turned his head back while widening a stiff smile, clarifying his nervousness in front of the Lightning Fox.
Xin Chen was sure, the moment the fox knew the Steel Phoenix Sword had been stolen from him, his head would definitely be beheaded alive by the Lightning Fox.
"We'll be back!"
"I-it's... I was chasing another piece of Phoenix Steel. If I get it later I'll be back. I-i promise. Come on Ye Long, we're leaving now!"
Just like Xin Chen, Ye Long was somewhat daunted by the Lightning Fox. The fox when it's angry is very scary. His silvery eyes would glow brightly like ghosts in broad daylight. Although in her small size she still looks cute but if her expression turns angry, anyone will run away to see her.
Ye Long flew over the clouds making them invisible to the people below. Xin Chen himself slightly stole a look down and suddenly he forced Ye Long to stop.
"Wait a minute!"
Ye Long hissed little, Xin Chen made him shocked earlier. His voice sounded too loud in his ears. Meanwhile Xin Chen's eyeballs were centered on three people fighting each other on the roof of a residential resident.
Actually, it is not just that fight that is happening right now and has become commonplace.
However Xin Chen was shocked when he saw the robes they were wearing were similar to those of the warriors from the Valley of the Gods. The two people were the same person as Xu Ming's assassin. The reliable informant was killed at the hands of both of them in his own home.
Ye Long also saw the fight, he shook his head slowly while reading how the situation was there. Clearly two robed people would lose to the three most senior people of the Four Surveillance Units. These seniors were top-class fighters who each had a pet demon.
When a spell appeared from above the sky and an attack struck two fighters from the Valley of the Gods, the house was destroyed by them. Fortunately, the owner of the house had already saved himself before his house was used as a place to fight.
A huge scorpion shot out from the red light belonging to a senior from the Four Surveillance Units, its huge claws piercing through the wood and residential bricks. Making one of the Valley of the Gods side hit and fell hoarded by the ruins.
His friend tried to save but what power, his back was pierced just like that by the scorpion's poisonous tail. It made blood rush as the tail was pulled back and he fell sprawled losing his life.
After getting the red Phoenix Steel Scouts the people of the Four Surveillance Units back to their headquarters. One released silver firecrackers that echoed throughout the village.
"Damn it, it looks like they're going to get the hell out of here! Ye Long, hurry. We don't have much time left!"
The dragon roar sounded after, Ye Long flying at a speed higher than usual, Xin Chen could barely catch a breath made by the dragon.
As Ye Long lowered him beside the headquarters of the Four Surveillance Units, Xin Chen whispered softly.
"We wait until they all get together. I'm sure they'll move to another point in search of the War God Armor. During that time can you feel where the snake demon that stole the Steel Phoenix went?"
Ye Long nodded in response. Xin Chen heaved a sigh of relief. "Look, the Steel Phoenix can't be in the demon's hands. As long as I go inside, can you screw up, can you, that snake demon? I will look for the Steel Phoenix with the Blood Ghost Mask. If the snake can track the Blood Ghost Mask it could also be threatened."
Ye Long shrunk his pupils in order to be able to listen to the sound in the smallest frequency, his two ears twitched softly before finally leaving from the face of Xin Chen.
"Well, I'm counting on you, man!"
