The two were even more shocked. The voice of the person in front of them sounded extremely young, yet their strength was even more terrifying than theirs? They couldn't see through it at all, just like the black-clothed person who followed Feng Kangan earlier. How could this be possible?
Since when did Tianlei City have so many young top experts?
They didn't dare to be negligent and repeated what they had previously said to Qin Mo, "You are the forces sent by the major powers of Tianlei City to guard this place?"
Chen Sisi frowned slightly. She had been attracted by that mysterious summoning power, which was deep within this cave, but she hadn't expected that there would already be someone guarding it. Suddenly, she felt a familiar power at the entrance of the cave, causing her body to tremble. This was extremely similar to the power she had tracked earlier.
She immediately asked in a solemn voice, "Has anyone else come here besides me?"
Rong Chengji replied, "Yes, two people just entered!"
"Who?" Chen Sisi's breathing quickened, asking sharply. Could it be that the aura she sensed earlier was real? Did someone who resembled Chen Shao come here? In that moment, her curiosity about Qin Mo even surpassed her curiosity about the summoning power in the cave.
Although her rationality told her that what she saw could not possibly be Qin Chen, the desire and hope within her shattered all reason.
For Qin Chen, she was willing to give up everything in the world.
Qiu Chengshuang's face suddenly showed dissatisfaction. Although the aura from Chen Sisi gave them an inscrutable feeling, Qiu Chengshuang instinctively felt that Chen Sisi's cultivation was likely not too high and could just be controlling a certain hidden cultivation technique. Moreover, his previous displeasure at Qin Mo's attitude made him coldly say, "It seems I am not obliged to explain anything to you, right? However, your background remains unexplained; you might as well tell us your name so that we can understand."
His tone was icy and filled with dissatisfaction.
Chen Sisi frowned, too lazy to ask again. Her form suddenly moved; whoosh, black smoke flowed, and Chen Sisi's figure turned ghostly, transforming into formless smoke and clouds, darting towards Qiu Chengshuang.
"Not good!" Qiu Chengshuang had not expected Chen Sisi to strike so suddenly. Startled, he quickly retreated, but it was already too late. A pair of icy hands had unknowingly grasped his throat. The chilling aura spreading out caused all the hairs on his body to stand on end; with just a gentle squeeze, she could snap his neck and take his life.
"Spare me, my lord!" he screamed instinctively.
Rong Chengji was also taken aback and hurriedly said, "Show mercy, let’s talk this over."
Both of them were covered in cold sweat. In just one move, Qiu Chengshuang had been subdued. Such cultivation was horrifying; the opponent was definitely a formidable powerhouse.
He inwardly cursed, why did Qiu Chengshuang have to provoke someone? Had he forgotten what was said earlier in the blink of an eye?
"Can we talk now?!" Chen Sisi said coldly, her gaze icy without a trace of emotion.
She seemed to be asking, yet her tone was filled with an undeniable authority, as if Qiu Chengshuang's unsatisfactory answer would lead to her striking him down on the spot.
"It was Feng Kangan, the master of the Ancient Sword Manor, and a black-clothed person of unknown origin," Qiu Chengshuang shouted in terror.
"Black-clothed person?" Chen Sisi's eyes narrowed, "Do you know the background of this black-clothed person?"
"We don't know. I heard from the owner of the Ancient Sword Manor that the person had also just arrived in Tianlei City not long ago and is not a powerhouse from Tianlei City," Qiu Chengshuang said, his skin crawling with fright.
Chen Sisi asked a few more questions but could not extract any more information. With a sudden movement, she dashed into the cave, pursuing Qin Mo.
Thud! Qiu Chengshuang fell to the ground, gasping for air as if he had just returned from hell.
