"The... The Myth? It's true?!" Si Shen couldn't believe it.
The first thing that entered her mind is that it must've been one of Ma Dong's inhabitant, but seeing that he's so shocked himself, he immediately skips everything and headed immediately to the what Ma Dong had said earlier.
First is that they gave up trying to enter, next, so many had attempted to do it before and none of them had succeeded, there might be those that had never returned, maybe he's one of them, either that or the man that's currently coming out is a supreme expert.
Si Shen looked at Ma Dong, meanwhile, the latter uttered; "The supreme expert is a bronze rank cultivator?"
Si Shen hearing this couldn't help but scan the person coming out of the cave too.
"Bronze rank..." The both of them became speechless.
The youth is none other than Mo Xie himself, he gazed at the two looking at him in a bewildered manner before he decided to move on; "Outside of the cave is a village?"
Mo Xie spoke in a low voice as he continued moving on.
Hearing his words, the two finally realized something; "He really is that person..."
But still, who would believe such a thing.
Ma Dong frowned, but still made a conjecture; "Maybe, a long time ago, those demons are at a low level because cultivation at that time was recently made?"
Si Shen also added: "Maybe the highest cultivation base that time is only at Earth rank Coralist..."
The both of them looked at each other but immediately moved their gaze towards the Sword Demon Mountain.
This conjecture was immediately disposed of and at the same time spoke: "The wrong person..."
"..."
A long awkward silence occurred between the two of them.
Mo Xie looked at the two that seemed to be observing his every movement and as they spoke to one another.
"Am I being treated like a slave for auction?" He couldn't help but mutter.
He then looked around, the only exit seemed to be the village entrance, or if he wants to climb a 30-meter wall made out of woods.
[It seems like I have to go through them, I just wish that they wouldn't harm me...] Mo Xie thought as he smiled at them and waved his hand as he started walking away.
_Badum~_ A heartbeat sounded, as Si Shen saw Mo Xie's smile, shaking his head, he looked at Mo Xie again and asked: "Where are you from?"
"I'm from the cave..." Mo Xie replied as he looked at the both of them in a confident manner.
"..."
A long silence occurred yet again, something is extremely weird in this conversation.
Si Shen finally couldn't take it as he thought; [Are you taking us for fools?]
Ma Dong chuckles as he spoke: "Now now, how about we just eat, for now, since you came out of that cave, then you`ll be the guest of our village, how about that?"
Ma Dong looked at Mo Xie as he waits for his reply.
Mo Xie pondered for a bit, he does not know anything, and informations are the first thing he needs to get his hands on first.
"Then, I shall take you on your offer." Mo Xie's lips beamed a smile, but Ma Dong immediately saw something in it.
[I wouldn't want to repeat the same mistake again... But... What kind of information can I get out of a village....] (Mo Xie)
Ma Dong looked at Mo Xie with bewilderment, such a young kid, yet carrying a deep sense of sadness, what kind of events has a youth like this encountered to have such pitiful eyes.
Si Shen is slightly annoyed at this carefree Mo Xie, yet, he couldn't do anything, he couldn't even blame him too as the two of them were just talking about the Supreme Expert as he arrived, he is totally clueless about their anticipation, hence, they couldn't even be angry at him.
Ma Dong nodded as he spoke: "Come, come, I will tell you the story about my name then."
Hearing his words, Si Shen's foul mood immediately lightened, he wanted to know more about the Sword Demon Mountain folklore after all.
The three of them headed back, Ma Dong is bringing them to the chief's hut for the night.
On their way back, they passed by the statue, Mo Xie couldn't help but look at it, gazing at its handicraft, but to his shock, there's something mysterious surrounding it.
Ma Dong noticed Mo Xie's expression changed slightly before it turned back to his original face, he couldn't help but wonder what he thought, still, he couldn't just ask immediately about it.
[Those stones, it is even harder than an adamantium ore... how did such a thing actually came to being?
And that energy surrounding it... It has the same aura as the mysterious energy inside that underground chamber...] (Mo Xie)
When the three of them arrived at the Chief's hut, a silhouette approached them.
"Prince, the ration has arrived." It is none other than Sun Meng.
Mo Xie immediately looked at this person and the one called prince, it seems he can get some information out of these two; [A Prince... Haha, I don't know what they are trying to do, but since they wanted to play this game, I'd tag along too, one is an Earth rank Coralist not even at the age of 20 and another is a 5-star Sky Shattering rank, not too bad.]
Si Shen nodded at Shen Meng and spoke: "How many?"
Shen Meng immediately answered: "We've killed 13 and four of them are edible."
With a nod, Si Shen ordered: "Then, bring the meat here for the people and our troops."
"Yes."
Si Shen sighed, [If they had not killed all of the spies now, the others would've already figured out that their comrades had been killed, they should stop all their attempts for now.]
Ma Dong immediately ordered some of the female villagers to prepare a feast from the demon beast meat as soon as it arrived, at first, the expert wanted to help, but the females immediately rejected the courtesy and started with the work.
The beast's meats are actually hard pieces of flesh that's the reason why the expert wanted to help, yet, to their shock, the females are slicing it like it's a piece of paper.
They looked at the knife and found it exuding a very sharp energy akin to that of a sword, seeing this, everyone just left and started to make tents for them to sleep on later.
Mo Xie, Ma Dong, and Si Shen proceeded in entering the hut and as soon as they entered, the three of them sat on the floor. The following event sent the both of them in shock as the words Mo Xie spoke made them speechless.
"Does the both of you know of a person named Zhong Zhihao?"
Both Si Shen and Ma Dong couldn't help but look at Mo Xie in shock, they wouldn't even dare to speak of his name, yet, this person actually did so nonchalantly.
"You dare utter his name!?" Si Shen with wide opened eyes glared at Mo Xie with a sword on his hand.
"The... The Myth? It's true?!" Si Shen couldn't believe it.
The first thing that entered her mind is that it must've been one of Ma Dong's inhabitant, but seeing that he's so shocked himself, he immediately skips everything and headed immediately to the what Ma Dong had said earlier.
