Chapter 100 – Track down Gongsun Huaiyu, the Holy Son of Yaoguang appears

Holding Little Black, Chen Changsheng left the room and began searching with his divine consciousness.

Moments later, a smile appeared on Chen Changsheng's lips. "That little girl is quite cautious."

"She actually erased the divine consciousness mark I left, but her skills are still a bit lacking."

Saying this, Chen Changsheng patted Little Black's head and murmured, "That girl shouldn't have gone far. It's up to you now."

Hearing Chen Changsheng's words, the sickly Little Black barked in a certain direction.

Seeing this, Chen Changsheng leisurely walked in the direction Little Black indicated.

In the cultivation world, pursuing an enemy relies on divine consciousness searches.

There are generally two ways to avoid such searches: one is to hide one's aura, and whether one can evade detection depends on the methods of both parties.

The second is to get as far away from the enemy as possible, beyond the range of divine consciousness.

With many cultivators in the Kunlun Sacred Ground, a large-scale search using divine consciousness is obviously inappropriate.

So theoretically, it would be difficult for Chen Changsheng to find Gongsun Huaiyu.

However, Gongsun Huaiyu made a small oversight; she overlooked a mundane method—tracking by scent.

Although Little Black's condition wasn't great and it had little combat power, it was still a beast with a much keener sense of smell than humans. It could roughly determine Gongsun Huaiyu's direction.

Knowing the general direction, how could Chen Changsheng not find Gongsun Huaiyu's whereabouts?

...

"Woof!"

Little Black barked in his arms, seemingly trying to show its ferocity.

But its soft, milky bark didn't sound fierce at all.

"Tsk tsk!"

"You lost track of Gongsun Huaiyu, but you can't take it out on me!"

"You're still too inexperienced to follow me."

With that, Chen Changsheng tossed the person in his hand to the ground.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, the spy from Kunlun Sacred Ground said coldly, "Chen Changsheng, this is Kunlun Sacred Ground. You can't just do as you please."

"Gongsun Huaiyu suddenly escaped surveillance. Where did she go?"

Chen Changsheng had no intention of responding to the spy's words.

"You're just a small fry, don't concern yourself with such big matters. Just report today's situation truthfully."

"And stop sending people to follow me. If you want to keep an eye on me, Jiang Feng will have to come personally."

With that, Chen Changsheng's figure disappeared from the spy's sight.

Chen Changsheng didn't care about this small disturbance; he was more concerned about Gongsun Huaiyu.

What kind of matter could make Gongsun Huaiyu take such a risk?

This was quite interesting!

...

"Nalan, is this a herb?"

A plainly dressed woman ran over, holding a plant.

Hearing her, a slightly pale man looked up.

His clothes were somewhat faded from washing, and the herb basket on his back showed he was here to gather herbs.

Taking the plant from the girl, the man examined it and said, "This is called the love pea, also a type of herbal medicine."

"But this herb is poisonous and needs to be used cautiously."

With the man's confirmation, the woman immediately boasted, "Nalan, am I impressive or what? I found a herb on my first try."

"Praise me!"

Seeing the woman's proud expression, the man smiled faintly and said, "Yes, yes!"

"Thanks to you, I could gather so many herbs. Let's go check over there."

"Okay!"

The woman happily agreed and walked briskly toward the distance.

But every few steps, she would turn to check on the man behind her, as if worried he couldn't keep up.

As time passed, their figures gradually faded into the distance.

But they didn't notice a pair of eyes staring intently at them from behind a distant hill.

...

"Tsk tsk!"

"Love really makes people blind, to be in enemy territory full of danger and still have the mind to flirt."

"Little Black, should I go ruin this beautiful moment?"

Chen Changsheng lifted Little Black to his face, talking to himself.

But the tired Little Black had no interest in responding, yawning and slowly closing its eyes.

"Don't be so murderous. Gongsun Huaiyu isn't weak; be careful she doesn't notice."

Trying to wake Little Black, Chen Changsheng said something cryptic to the air.

Before he finished speaking, the Holy Son of Yaoguang appeared behind him.

However, the usually gentle and amiable Holy Son of Yaoguang was now exuding murderous intent.

After a long pause, the Holy Son of Yaoguang finally restrained his killing intent and said softly, "Stay out of this. I don't want to kill you."

Hearing the Holy Son of Yaoguang speak, Chen Changsheng turned around with a smile.

"I was just wondering how Gongsun Huaiyu suddenly became so capable."

"To silently escape Kunlun Sacred Ground's pursuit, it seems you, the Holy Son of Yaoguang, are cleaning up the mess!"

"When you didn't strike hard at Kunlun Stone House, it was probably for this reason."

"But you were too harsh back then. If you had been a bit rougher, her life would have been in danger."

The Holy Son of Yaoguang didn't immediately respond to Chen Changsheng's words but turned to look at the two figures in the distance.

"At Kunlun Stone House, you deliberately slowed down."

"It seemed to protect the stone you chose, but in reality, it was to let Gongsun Huaiyu catch you."

"Actively contacting the Seventy-Two Wolf Smokes means you have ties with them."

"With you around, Gongsun Huaiyu won't die."

"As it turns out, I wasn't wrong. You do have ties with the Seventy-Two Wolf Smokes, and quite deep ones."

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng grinned and said, "As expected of the Holy Son of Yaoguang, your insight is spot on."

"Since we've come this far, aren't you going to reveal the identity of that short-lived ghost?"

Upon hearing this, the Holy Son of Yaoguang gave Chen Changsheng a meaningful look.

"That short-lived ghost is my brother."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

At these words, Chen Changsheng started coughing.

"Sorry, I didn't guess you two would be related."

"But to be fair, your brother doesn't have long to live. Outsiders might not know, but you must."

"I know. He was severely injured in the womb, and I was the one who cut him out."

"So that's how it is!"

"Sorry for bringing up your sad past again."

Chen Changsheng felt a bit apologetic for his words always touching on people's sore spots.

"Didn't you seek revenge?"

"With your status and strength, revenge shouldn't be difficult."
