When Su Jiuyin arrived at the edge of the Misty Forest, Xing Tian's body was already far away, leaving only huge footprints on the ground at great distances.
Entering the Misty Forest again would be pointless and would only add unnecessary trouble.
Su Jiuyin followed the footprints and quickly caught up, soon seeing Xing Tian's remains walking under the moonlight.
He had been to the Misty Forest many times and captured many multi-headed animals, but he had never sensed the presence of Xing Tian's remains.
According to Liu Yi, as a corpse driver, Bian Lang could not only control the corpses to walk, but also make them fight.
Su Jiuyin came here for two reasons: first, to confirm whether the body that emerged from the Misty Forest was indeed Xing Tian's remains; and second, to seize Xing Tian's remains if the opportunity arose.
He naturally didn't take Bian Lang seriously, but if Bian Lang could really control Xing Tian's remains to fight, even if he could only unleash one-tenth of Xing Tian's combat power, he could easily crush him.
Just then, Xing Tian's remains suddenly stopped.
Bian Lang stood on Xing Tian's shoulder, smiling and waving at Su Jiuyin.
Not long after leaving the Misty Forest, someone set their sights on Xing Tian's remains, showing that the appearance of Xing Tian's remains has already stirred up this world.
Su Jiuyin stepped into the air and floated down to Bian Lang's side. He clasped his hands and smiled, "I am Su Jiuyin, the leader of the Kaoshan Gang."
"Nice to meet you," Bian Lang said.
Even from a distance, Su Jiuyin could tell that the person standing on Xing Tian's body was Bian Lang.
Standing before him now, I was even more surprised; Bian Lang was so young.
Although Minister Zhu's cultivation level was not high, he was only one step away from entering the Core Formation Realm.
But when he fought Bian Lang, he seemed to have no chance to fight back.
Even more strangely, when he used his spiritual power to investigate, he was unable to detect Bian Lang's cultivation level.
This situation could occur either because Bian Lang has no cultivation at all, or because Bian Lang's cultivation far surpasses his.
To surpass him, Bian Lang's cultivation level can only reach the Nascent Soul stage.
But is that even possible?
At Bian Lang's age, if he could reach the Nascent Soul Realm, he would be a peerless genius, one in a thousand years on this continent.
"Brother Bian, where are you going?" Su Jiuyin unscrewed the wine gourd and gulped down several mouthfuls.
Bian Lang said, "Dark Domain."
"The Dark Domain? That's a place we humans have never set foot in. Even the Nascent Soul Ancestor never returned after entering the Dark Domain." Su Jiuyin tried to persuade Bian Lang.
If Bian Lang were willing to send Xing Tian's remains to Kaoshan City, everyone would be happy.
Bian Lang laughed and said, "My mission is to drive Xing Tian's remains to the Dark Domain. As for my personal safety, there's no need for Chief Su to worry about it."
“Brother Bian, let’s send Xing Tian’s remains to Kaoshan City, and then we can both become immortals, wouldn’t that be better?” All Su Jiuyin could think about was wine and becoming immortals.
For mortals to cultivate themselves into immortals, they must embark on a long and arduous journey.
Su Jiuyin was very self-aware, knowing that he had no hope in this life.
However, upon sensing the aura of Xing Tian's remains, it was as if heaven had suddenly ignited a ray of hope for him.
Obtaining Xing Tian's remains will surely grant one immortality.
Bian Lang said, "Chief Su, please go down. Compared to becoming an immortal, driving corpses is much more fun."
Having already caught up with Xing Tian's remains, Su Jiuyin naturally wouldn't give up easily.
Once the opportunity to become an immortal arises, one must seize it firmly, for it is unlikely to come again.
"Brother Bian, if we really make a move, what are your chances of winning?" Su Jiuyin didn't want to just watch Xing Tian's remains fall into the hands of his opponent.
Bian Lang laughed and said, "Perfect."
“It’s good for young people to be confident, but excessive confidence can lead to their deaths,” Su Jiuyin still tried to persuade Bian Lang.
Bian Lang chuckled and asked, "Chief Su, do you think you can defeat Xing Tian?"
As they spoke, Bian Lang shook the Soul-Capturing Bell, urging Xing Tian to hurry on his way.
If Su Jiuyin wants to come along, then let him come along.
But if Su Jiuyin dares to spout nonsense again, Bian Lang wouldn't mind slapping him and sending him back to Kaoshan City.
Xing Tian's remains walked at a very fast speed.
Thinking of what Liu Yi had said, Su Jiuyin immediately chose to leave temporarily.
There must be many people eyeing Xing Tian's remains. All he needs to do now is follow behind and observe what happens.
After all, the one who strikes first will ultimately benefit others.
By dawn, Xing Tian's remains had traveled approximately 500 li.
Seeing a dense forest ahead, Bian Lang had Xing Tian's body lie down in the forest, as it would be too conspicuous if it stood upright.
Su Jiuyin watched this unfold and sneered inwardly. Did Bian Lang really think that leaving Xing Tian's body lying in the forest would prevent anyone from discovering it?
"Brother Su, why are you following me?" A flippant voice suddenly came from behind.
Su Jiuyin was extremely familiar with this voice.
The visitor was Dugu Meng, the city lord of Iron City.
Dugu Meng was tall and imposing, dressed in a magnificent purple robe, but his face didn't look like that of a good person at all.
Su Jiuyin said coldly, "Why don't you go?"
"If you're not going, why should I?" Dugu Meng chuckled.
The thought of having to spend the entire day with Dugu Meng made Su Jiuyin feel terrible.
"My son is doing quite well, isn't he?" Dugu Meng changed the subject.
There's no rush to retrieve Xing Tian's remains.
Dugu Meng knew that many people were already watching in the shadows, and that whoever made the first move would be eliminated first.
Su Jiuyin frowned and asked, "Your son?"
"You haven't met him yet, have you?" Dugu Meng was stunned.
Su Jiuyin took out a wine gourd, took a few big gulps, and scolded, "Dugu Meng, although my daughter is not beautiful, she is well-educated, polite, gentle and virtuous. If you feel that she is not good enough for your son, then this marriage is off."
"That brat, once this matter is settled, I will personally bring him to apologize." Dugu Meng was so angry that she wanted to kill Xing Tian's remains.
This alliance between Iron City and the Backer Gang is of great importance.
If this marriage goes through, Shushan and Dengtiange will no longer be able to sleep soundly.
"Where is Chu Chu?" Dugu Meng had only seen Su Chu Chu when she was very young. At that time, she thought Su Chu Chu was very cute and would definitely grow up to be a beauty.
Su Jiuyin said, "In Mount Shu."
“Brother Su, those old Taoists from Mount Shu are always unreliable…” Dugu Meng knew Su Jiuyin all too well.
Su Jiuyin is a cunning old fox. Even without a written agreement, if she feels it is of no benefit to the Kao Shan Gang, she will tear up the agreement and refuse to acknowledge it.
For example, regarding the marriage alliance with Iron Enclosure City, if Su Jiuyin felt that a marriage alliance with Shu Mountain would be more beneficial to the development of the Backing Mountain Gang, she would definitely not hesitate to marry her beloved daughter to Shu Mountain.
Su Jiuyin said, "Bian Lang won't be traveling during the day, so he should save his energy and get some rest. There might be a big battle after nightfall."
“That’s very true. People from Shushan and Dengtian Pavilion have arrived, and even the Empress’s side…” Dugu Meng was speaking enthusiastically, but she heard Su Jiuyin’s deep snoring.
Knowing that Su Jiuyin was pretending to be asleep, he jumped onto a big tree, intending to get a good night's sleep as well.
Only by getting enough rest can you have the energy to fight at night.
