When the Chiyang Sect's ninth-grade warrior woke up the next morning, he immediately realized that he had been attacked last night. In panic, he immediately checked the spiritual spring. When he saw it, his heart suddenly turned cold. All the snow fish seemed to be crazy, tossing back and forth in the spiritual spring.

In the past, the surface of the spiritual spring was calm without any ripples, like a smooth mirror. But now it is like a sea hit by a storm, with turbulent waves.

He immediately sent out a signal, and soon the leader of the Chiyang Sect arrived with the sect's masters.

After listening to the explanation of the situation by the ninth-grade early warrior who was guarding the spiritual spring, and then looking at the snow fish struggling in the spring, they couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Because the treasury was stolen, it was impossible to gather the resources for tribute. The mature cod in the spiritual spring had almost been caught. At this moment, poisoning the spiritual spring would only result in the loss of these immature snow fish, which was not a big loss. The enemy in the dark took action, but did not hurt the vital parts at all!

Thinking something was wrong, the leader of the Chiyang Sect went forward to take a closer look and caught a snow fish himself. After a moment, he noticed something was wrong. The snow fish didn't look like it was poisoned at all, but instead seemed to be in an extremely excited state.

He took out some more spiritual spring water and tested it, which confirmed his idea. There was no poison in it. And so far, no dead snow fish had been found in the spiritual spring.

This is really strange. The leader of Chiyang Sect thought for a long time before he came up with a slightly more reasonable possibility. It was not that someone was targeting Chiyang Sect and adding insult to injury, but it seemed that they were using the snow fish in the spiritual spring to test the efficacy of some medicine. If it was really an enemy, they would have just killed the guard directly, without knocking him out, and they were very measured and did not cause any other harm.

Although these immature snow fish can be sold, their value is not very high. Even if they all die, it will not have much impact on the current Chiyang Sect.

I can't figure it out, so I just stop thinking about it. Wait until these snow fish calm down and the answer will become clear.

Therefore, the leader of Chiyang Sect only sent more people to guard the spiritual spring and pay attention to the condition of the snow fish. After three days, the snow fish finally calmed down and returned to their previous habit of preferring to stay still and not move, sinking deep into the spiritual spring.

The leader of the Chiyang Sect caught some snow fish again and was surprised to find that one third of these snow fish, which originally took five to ten years to mature, had already reached maturity, and the remaining ones were also close to maturity and would only need another two to three years at most.

For a moment, the leader of the Chiyang Sect was a little dumbfounded. What was going on?

……

Xu Feng felt refreshed as he breathed. In the following days, he began to live a secluded life. He spent most of his time in the Yang family's library, reading fragments of ancient books, focusing on finding news about another continent on the other side of the Endless Sea.

It’s not that he intended to go there, but every time he thought back to the horrific experience in Seawatch City that day, he always felt uneasy.

When the terrifying woman discovered his medicinal constitution, she immediately controlled him with unparalleled pressure. At that moment, he did feel the surprise in her eyes. But why did she let him go in the end?

Before, he thought that it was because she came from another continent, and because of some kind of rule between the powerful people in the Unknown Realm, she couldn't attack him. But now thinking about it carefully, this reason is not tenable at all.

The Unknown Realm above the first rank was already the strongest force in the Burning Flame Continent. There were no other masters of the same level present at the time, so why should they abide by any rules? She could easily take him away without anyone noticing, so who would know?

There weren't many people present at the time, so killing them all to silence them wasn't a big deal for a person like her. Moreover, Dugu Bo and the other three were her subordinates, so it was very easy to cover up.

To take a step back, even if for some reason she, an outsider, could not keep the medicine for herself, she could still trade it with old monsters of the same level in the Holy Gate in exchange for some cultivation treasures she needed, which would be a great benefit to her.

The more Xu Feng thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He always felt that he had missed something. And the sentence she said, "Get up, look how scared you are." He always felt that it was a bit inappropriate to say this given her strength and status.

Unable to figure this out, he had to try his best to find out information about the continent on the other side of the Endless Sea, hoping to get some clues.

Unfortunately, whether it was because the Yang family was just a very small family of cultivators with a limited collection of books, or because there was simply very little news about that remote place, Xu Feng checked all the books in the library but found no valuable clues.

Xu Feng was somewhat helpless. Apart from the brief happy days he had spent with Jinniang, he now really missed the carefree life he had with his three apprentices in Xiaogou Village.

Unfortunately, Xiaogou Village is gone now. Thinking of this, Xu Feng suddenly had an idea.

He found Yang Shang and asked directly, "Second Young Master, I have a question for you. Is there any evil force in our Tianfeng country?"

"Oh? What does Mr. Xu mean by that?" Yang Shang asked puzzledly.

"It's like this. When I was traveling, I passed by a remote small village. After I went in, I found that the people there, except for most of the young and middle-aged people and children, had all been killed. The bodies were arranged into a strange and evil symbol. I was panicked at the time. I ran away in a hurry. I still feel scared when I think about it now." Xu Feng showed a frightened expression.

Yang Shang's face turned serious when he heard this. "Mr. Xu, you actually witnessed the evil deeds of the evil thief with your own eyes?"

"Evil thief? Please help me solve this mystery, Second Young Master." Xu Feng was shocked. He had just wanted to give it a try, but he didn't expect that Yang Shang actually knew the answer. After all, he was from a practicing family.

"If you ask others about this, they may not know, but I just happened to know it by chance. The evil thieves are one of the seven thieves. They believe in some kind of evil existence and roam around the countries. From time to time, they massacre villages and perform some kind of sacrificial ritual with a large number of lives. I heard that this ritual can make them stronger, which is really weird."

"The so-called seven bandits refer to the seven bandits Fenglinshanhuo, Guixiehun. Among them, Fenglinshanhuo is called the lower four bandits, and Guixiehun is called the upper three bandits. The leaders of the four bandits Fenglinshanhuo are all upper three rank strongmen, and ordinary forces dare not provoke them at all.

It's not that they are so strong that they can't be fought, but the four gangs are of the same blood and support each other. Once they are provoked, these people will go crazy and take revenge without regard for the consequences. And the means are extremely despicable, and they will do anything to the extreme, such as murder, arson, kidnapping, robbery, and poisoning. As long as they can bring losses to the enemy, they have no bottom line. "
