After taking care of Xiang Sheng, Aunt Wang picked up the broom and pushed open the door. She was about to sweep the snow off the road outside the house, but when she looked up, she saw two black lights breaking through the air and approaching in the blink of an eye.
Aunt Wang's face changed slightly. She immediately dropped the broom and ran into the inner room. Seeing Xiang Sheng was awake, she pulled her under the bed without saying a word.
"There are often immortals causing trouble around here, so don't talk!"
After giving some hurried instructions, Aunt Wang made the bed and walked out in a pretentious manner.
Xiang Sheng looked at Aunt Wang's back as she left through the crack in the door, his eyes gradually narrowing.
…
As soon as Aunt Wang pushed open the door to the inner room, she saw two young men in gray standing in front of the gate, their eyes sweeping over Aunt Wang.
At this sight, Aunt Wang suddenly felt breathless, her heart pounding wildly. Her legs gave way and she knelt down, saying with deep fear and trepidation, "I, the old lady Wang, respectfully welcome the two immortals."
When the two young men heard the word "immortal", a look of enjoyment appeared on their faces.
"Wang, this immortal has a question for you."
A man dressed in black, with a cold expression, waved his sleeves and unfolded a file: "Have you ever seen this person passing by here?"
When Aunt Wang looked up and saw the portrait on the file, she was immediately shocked. Isn’t this Xiang girl?
She thought so in her heart, but showed no strange expression on her face. She shook her head repeatedly and said, "I haven't seen it."
The young man in black looked slightly gloomy.
"Brother, could it be that you saw it wrong?"
The young man in gray beside him couldn't help but persuade him, "That's the murderous witch of the Lu family, how could she be traveling in a carriage like a mortal?
"And, Brother, have you forgotten that she killed a Jindan stage cultivator with one sword in Siji City? She was terrifyingly strong! Even if we really caught up with a person like that, what would happen?"
The young man in black glanced at his junior fellow apprentice coldly, "Are you scared?"
The young man in gray looked helpless, "How can I not be afraid?"
“Wealth and honor are sought in danger!”
The young man in black flicked his sleeves and said indifferently, "If you are afraid, just go back to the sect earlier and don't follow me.
However, Senior Brother also needs to remind you. Fengyue Sect made it very clear that in the battle of Siji City, the Lu family demon girl was able to kill the Jindan stage with one sword, relying on the power of the Four Extremes Forbidden Power. Her own strength was far inferior to that of the Jindan stage.
Moreover, eight months have passed since this incident. The Lu family witch is near death. Even if she is still alive, she is extremely weak. The fact that she traveled by carriage is the best proof of this."
The young man in black said this, and the young man in gray began to waver again. He hesitated for a moment and sighed, "But, brother, your search is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
"The carriage has already been found, how can this be like looking for a needle in a haystack?"
The young man in black's eyes flashed, "I have a feeling she's hiding nearby."
Aunt Wang was confused by the conversation between the two, but she could tell that the "Lu family witch" they were talking about was an extremely powerful and ruthless character in the world of cultivation.
She felt a little relieved.
The girl's surname is Xiang, and she has a gentle and well-behaved personality. She is definitely not the person these two immortals are looking for. She is probably just similar in appearance.
After the two young men in black finished their discussion, their attention returned to Aunt Wang.
He glanced around the house, his eyes narrowed, and asked, "You live alone in this mountain?"
Aunt Wang knew he was suspicious, so she quickly explained, "No, no, no, my boss is still here. I've been feeling a bit cold lately, and my boss went to the city to buy medicine, so he hasn't returned yet."
As she spoke, Aunt Wang covered her mouth and coughed twice.
The young man in black had already smelled the medicine and immediately believed it. He turned around and was about to leave when he heard the young man in gray suddenly call out, "Brother, wait a minute!"
Aunt Wang's heart, which had just calmed down, became heavier again, and she looked at the two of them with panic in her eyes.
The young man in black frowned and turned back, "What do you want to do? Although the sect rules have no restrictions, committing murder in vain will do no good to you or me."
"Brother, of course I know, but..."
The young man in gray turned his head and looked at Aunt Wang, his eyes gradually becoming colder. "Could it be that she is the evil woman of the Lu family?"
The young man in black was stunned. "What did you say?"
Aunt Wang was also confused.
The young man in gray felt that he had the right idea and said excitedly, "Brother, since you said that the Lu family demon girl is terminally ill and cannot maintain her cultivation, her appearance will become old.
The Lu family demon girl was originally at the foundation-building stage, so her actual age must be at least fifty years old, and she might even be unrecognizable!"
The young man in black trembled slightly and his expression changed. He had never thought of this.
"My two celestial beings, I am not that evil woman from the Lu family."
Aunt Wang hurriedly said, "I have lived in the mountains for nearly thirty years, and the villagers down there all know me. You two immortals are very perceptive, very perceptive!"
The young man in black was still hesitating, but the young man in gray sneered, "Brother, it's better to kill someone by mistake than to let him go. I can still bear the responsibility of this sin of killing."
After saying that, the young man in gray raised his hand and slapped Aunt Wang on the head.
"ah!"
Aunt Wang screamed, but the pain did not fall on her head. At the same time, she heard a slight gasp in her ears.
She looked up and saw Xiang Sheng's pale profile. His slender right hand was firmly grasping the wrist of the young man in gray.
"The Lu family witch?!"
The young man in gray was startled at first, then overjoyed, "You are here!"
The young man in black didn't say anything else. He stretched out his hand and pressed the storage ring. Two pieces of cold blue light shot straight towards his face.
Xiang Sheng pushed Aunt Wang away with one hand, waved his sleeve to sweep away the two cold lights, and reflected them towards the young man in gray.
The young man in gray raised a shield and easily blocked the poisoned weapon, laughing loudly: "Brother, she is very weak!"
"Don't hold back, kill her and claim the reward!"
