Chapter 39 The Scapegoat Jin Ding

He followed Yu Shan from a distance to the Golden Cauldron in Baiyang Town, and saw the two walk out of the fence gate and disappear before his eyes in the blink of an eye.

This was the first time he had ever seen teleportation.

Once a native cultivator reaches the Heavenly Questioning Realm, they can control their spiritual energy to fly directly through the air. Although the speed is fast, it still leaves a trail of afterimages.

But Mr. Bai clearly only had the cultivation of the Spirit Fusion Realm, and he did not use a short-distance teleportation talisman. Jin Ding really couldn't understand how he could suddenly disappear in front of him with his mission target.

As the leader of the Golden Armor Guards of the Cloud Palace, he lost track of the mission target, leaving Jin Ding extremely frustrated.

Helpless, he could only release the tracking butterfly that Jin Liu had given him.

This thing is a third-tier spirit butterfly that Jin Liu accidentally contracted. It has an extremely keen sense of the fragrance of the pollen of a spirit flower called Xuan Ye Lan.

Previously, when Yu Shan and the others lived in the warehouse, Jin Liu sprinkled pollen from Xuan Ye Lan on everyone.

If you sprinkle this pollen on your body, the fragrance will last for a hundred days, and its scent is so faint that it won't attract anyone's attention.

As long as the tracking butterfly is released, it can sense the direction of Feather Fan and the others within a radius of a hundred miles.

Following the guidance of the tracking butterfly, Jin Dingyu quickly arrived at Dongyuan Town.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of the Nameless Sect branch, he heard a loud "boom" coming from inside.

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, a maidservant screamed from inside the courtyard: "The earth shook! The east wing collapsed!"

Jin Ding was puzzled. He clearly didn't feel the ground beneath his feet moving.

Looking around, all the other buildings in the town were fine, and this house in front of me looked very sturdy, so why was it the only one that collapsed?

The next second, he saw a black shadow flash before his eyes, and then he saw the tracking butterfly quickly flap its wings and fly towards the direction where the black shadow disappeared.

Only then did he belatedly realize that the dark figure was actually Xiaobai and Yushan, and that the reason the house collapsed was because they had fought with someone inside.

Just as Jin Ding was about to follow the Tracking Butterfly to chase after the person, he heard someone shout: "Who goes there? How dare you make a scene at our Nameless Sect branch? Prepare to die!"

From the narrow alleyway to the side, a man raised his sword and thrust it fiercely at him. This was Henchman A of the Nameless Sect, who had just returned from collecting protection money.

Jin Ding had no time to play with him. He waved his hand and unleashed a Five Thunderbolts Technique, annihilating the unfortunate fellow along with his soul.

Just as they were about to leave, they heard an angry shout from mid-air: "Where do you think you're going, you scoundrel? You killed the chief envoy of my Nameless Sect branch, so leave your life behind!"

Jin Ding, who was being unfairly blamed, felt a chill run down his spine, because it was clear that spiritual energy had been infused into the sound, which was being transmitted from a distance.

This is enough to prove that the person's cultivation level is profound, at least at the fifth level of the Asking Heaven Realm.

He himself was already at the third level of the Asking Heaven Realm, and his opponent was two minor realms higher than him. Even if he couldn't win in a real fight, he would still have a chance to escape.

However, doing so would very likely expose his identity as a Golden Armor Guard of the Cloud Palace, and if he were to entangle him, how could he protect the mission target?

With this in mind, Jin Ding decided to slip away! And he had to slip away quickly!

As the leader of the Golden Armor Guards, he naturally possessed numerous life-saving measures, and immediately and without hesitation, he produced a high-level Earth Escape Talisman.

When Guo Tianfeng, the third elder of the Nameless Sect, arrived at the branch entrance by stepping through the void, he saw the remaining spiritual light of the high-level earth escape talisman flashing.

This kind of earth-遁符 (earth-遁符) can teleport a person directly to a distance of 500 miles, and the teleportation is random.

However, his divine sense could only cover a radius of a hundred miles, making it impossible for him to pinpoint the person's location.

Guo Tianfeng glanced down at the henchmen who had been killed by the Five Thunderbolts Technique, and became even more certain that this person was no ordinary person.

Among the cultivators of the Misty Heavenly Realm, those who possess the Thunder Spirit Root are all formidable once they grow up.

He then entered the east wing, which reeked of blood, and saw a pile of lifeless, mangled flesh.

The divine sense searched the vicinity but couldn't even detect a wisp of the remnant soul; the person's body and soul had been completely pulverized.

Guo Tianfeng couldn't help but exclaim, "What a cruel method!"

But he couldn't find a single clue from the two dead people.

One was burned to ashes by the Five Thunderbolts Technique, and the other... he really couldn't tell.

The main reason is that the previous ice was shattered into pieces by the envoy and turned into water droplets.

The snow that followed melted into water as it shattered his body and soul.

There should have been traces of water, but his body had turned into a pile of bloody pulp, with blood oozing out and mixed with the water stains, making it impossible to distinguish.

Guo Tianfeng examined it carefully again and again, but still couldn't figure out what kind of murder weapon had caused the envoy to be in such a tragic state.

The only thing he was certain of was that the murderer had a lightning spiritual root and was at least at the fifth level of the Spirit Connection Realm.

Previously, the sect leader received a message from Lan Mi, the Holy Maiden of the Holy Witch Clan, saying: The Dongyuan Town branch is in danger! Send people to its aid immediately; they can capture important figures.

He happened to be having tea with the sect leader at the time. Upon learning of this information, he immediately flew over, but he was too late and the thief escaped.

Although he failed to catch the thief, the sect lost a chief envoy, and he had to investigate this matter thoroughly.

So Guo Tianfeng stepped directly into the void and arrived at the territory of the Holy Witch Clan.

At this time, Yu Shan and Xiao Bai had just returned to their clan's territory. In fact, Jin Ding had just killed a henchman after they arrived. Sensing the arrival of a powerful figure, he used an earth-遁符 (earth-遁符, a type of talisman) to escape, thus attracting Guo Tianfeng's full attention.

Otherwise, as long as he spreads his divine sense, Baiyang Town, which is only thirty miles away from Dongyuan Town, will definitely not escape his detection. In that case, the two people with feather fans who are teleporting back will definitely be discovered by him.

However, at this moment, Yu Shan and Xiao Bai were busy instructing Mao Li on how to set up an array. Yu Shan, a former high-level cultivator from the local area, was naturally no less skilled in array formations than a book on array formations.

In some areas where even Mao Li's brain, comparable to a computer, couldn't understand, she could suddenly grasp the meaning after a little guidance.

Just as Guo Tianfeng was about to call out to Lan Mi, he saw a young woman from the Holy Witch Clan directing two puppets to set up an array.

He had studied formations for a period of time when he was young, and he could tell at a glance that this was a large formation that combined offense and defense.

However, due to limitations in materials and the cultivation level of the person setting up the formation, this formation cannot reach a very high grade. Even so, it can still easily withstand attacks from cultivators at the Spirit Realm.

Guo Tianfeng never expected that the Holy Witch Clan, which had risen and fallen over the past few hundred years, would still be hiding such a young witch with an exceptional talent for array formations!
