A strange scene greeted them the moment they stepped inside the Black Panther Sect. Both of them saw a dozen young children being led into a building by two sect members. The door was then locked from the outside, and two black sect guards took position in front of it.

Ho Chen and Fang Yun observed the situation while continuing their walk. They headed toward the rear of the sect compound, where there stood a modest-sized building. A pile of dry wood stacked beside it indicated the place was a kitchen.

They both entered and closed the door behind them. Ho Chen and Fang Yun removed the hoods they had been wearing.

“We’ll wait until nightfall. Then we move according to our mission. For now, let’s learn more about the conditions inside this sect. You find out how many members they have, and I’ll search for the whereabouts of Wayward Fang,” said Ho Chen.

“Alright. Should we use these again?” Fang Yun held up the hood he had just taken off.

“No need. We’ll disguise ourselves as ordinary me

  • Fang Yun's Expertise

    The five of them walked into the large house and sat on the chairs in the living room. Ho Chen shook his head as he looked around at the various decorations adorning Wu Jian’s grand residence. It was clear that Triasih’s father had a refined taste in art, evident from the many carvings mounted on the walls.Triasih walked quickly into the interior of the house and soon returned to join the others.“This is what happened, Father, Mother... Earlier this morning, while I was picking flowers at the edge of the forest, four men forcibly dragged me into the woods. They had bad intentions toward me. Long story short, Ho Chen and Fang Yun saved me from those four vile men.”Wu Jian and Mei Shin could not hide the shock on their faces. They looked closely at their daughter and then turned their gaze toward the two young men who had rescued her.After weighing the bow and arrows, Fang Yun grabbed a piece of wood lying nearby. T

  • Mei Ling

    The member of the Red Bat Sect could no longer utter a word. The result of years of training in the black sect had vanished in mere seconds.For a warrior who hadn’t even reached the beginner dueling level, the loss of inner power might not be too devastating. But it was a different story for someone at the elite duelist level—losing one’s inner energy and martial skills was as good as losing one’s life.A sense of awe arose within the man toward the young man standing before him. So young, yet already capable of stripping others of their power. At the very least, he must have reached the final stage of elite duelist, he thought.Meanwhile, Fang Yun had already knelt beside the unconscious girl. He channeled his energy into her body, hoping to awaken her.Judging by her clothes, she was likely the daughter of someone wealthy. As the son of a Duke accustomed to luxury, Fang Yun could recognize it easily enough.

  • Information about Zhang Yixing

    Fang Yun stood frozen for a moment after Ho Chen bolted away at incredible speed. He didn’t expect his friend to just leave like that without saying anything first."Hey, wait up!" he shouted loudly.But Ho Chen paid no attention to Fang Yun’s call. At that moment, the only thing on his mind was the safety of the woman whose scream had pierced through his ears.After sprinting for about a hundred meters, Ho Chen stopped and scanned the area. He also sharpened his hearing.However, the scream he had heard earlier suddenly vanished. Only the soft whisper of the wind brushing against his eardrums could be heard."Strange! I clearly heard a woman's scream from around here, but now it's completely gone," Ho Chen muttered, scratching his head.Before long, Fang Yun had caught up to him, panting heavily. His heart pounded wildly, as if he had just been chased by demons."Next time, say something before you run off! Don’t just leave like that," Fang Yun grumbled.Ho Chen signaled him to be qu

  • Important Clue

    From the inspection they conducted in several houses, it became clear that a large-scale massacre had taken place in the village. In every house, they found human bones believed to belong to the former residents."Who could have carried out this massacre in the village?" Fang Yun’s jaw clenched. He couldn’t contain his emotions upon seeing that none of the villagers had survived—only skeletons remained.In truth, Fang Yun had lost the will to continue the journey with Ho Chen. He was exhausted and just wanted to go home. But after witnessing the silent testimony of the village massacre, his spirit reignited, and he was once again determined to dedicate his life to the path of righteousness."I can’t say for sure who did it. But one thing is certain—the number of attackers was greater than the number of villagers," Ho Chen replied, his gaze fixed on the road."Should we continue our journey or stay the night in this village?""It’s already late. If we keep going, we might not find anot

  • Dead Village

    Although both possessed quite formidable inner strength, it was important to remember that they were still human—made of flesh and bone, held together by thousands of nerves stretching from head to toe.Especially Ho Chen. Though he was the incarnation of the Sun God, he was still born as a human child. It would have been a different matter had he been born in the realm of the gods. And if he hadn’t been given a divine mission to thwart the Demon King’s plan to conquer Earth, Ho Chen might never have wandered from one place to another.In truth, he had never wished to become a warrior who might spill blood at any given moment. His mother’s teachings from an early age, which instilled in him the habit of giving in, had shaped his character."Ho Chen, how many years do you think we’ll have to travel like this?" asked Fang Yun. As the son of a Duke, Fang Yun had grown up pampered. He rarely even trained during his time at the Star Sword Sect, and now he was forced into a situation that d

  • The Village Chief’s Request

    All eyes turned toward a small group in the distance. There was a sense of admiration among the onlookers. So young, yet already skilled in martial arts—especially considering that the sect they had just destroyed was one of the more feared black arts sects.Unknowingly, Ho Chen and the others’ journey had brought them to the edge of noon. At the same time, they arrived at the village of Luyin.The small village suddenly burst into a commotion with the arrival of a dozen children, who had been forcefully taken from their parents. The villagers—especially the parents—had already lost all hope of ever seeing their children again.The village men grew suspicious, thinking Ho Chen and Fang Yun were part of the group that had abducted their children. With weapons in hand, they prepared for revenge. But after one of the children explained that it was those two who had helped free them, the suspicion melted away on its own. Gratitude replaced it, and they could not stop thanking the two warr
