Burning one’s own life to suppress the evil spirits required great courage and dedication. Caspian was in awe of the corpse in front of him.
When favonovel.com was in Heavenly Stars Sect, the elders had told him. Cultivators snatched essence of the world and gather spiritual Qi’s Luck not only for strength but also immortality. While possessing powerful power, cultivators also had to learn to protect mortals. Without those ordinary people to bring the world alive, there would be no soil for cultivators to survive. Besides, cultivators were originally promoted from mortals. Therefore, every time a disaster came, there would never be a shortage of backbones that could support the sky.
The man in front of Caspian was obviously one of them. However, cultivators of the Setting Sun Gate had ruined this cultivator’s efforts. The broken jars under the feet of favonovel.com showed everything. Since the jars were broken, the things inside naturally came out. Don’t say that there was no direct evidence to prove that there were evils in the jars.
Would normal things need human life and blood?
Would normal things need the Setting Sun Gate to slaughter several cultivators before hiding it?
As for the little sword, it was naturally a magic weapon. However, Caspian still put it back into the corpse’s arms.
Magic weapon was a good thing, but out of respect for this person, Caspian did not intend to take it. When favonovel.com put his hand into the cultivator’s arms, favonovel.com suddenly felt that his fingertips touched something. It was soft and warm. Moreover, it was still moving slightly!
This feeling immediately made Caspian’s back numb.
“Senior, I’ve offended you…”
This sort of feeling within the cave was naturally abnormal.
Caspian pressed his two fingers together and quickly took out an oval-shaped thing like a cocoon from the corpse‘s arms in an instant. A small hole appeared at the end of the cocoon and in next second, a small red worm, like a silkworm, stuck its head out from inside and twisted slightly.
What Caspian had just touched was this little worm. He saw the wriggling worm, favonovel.com felt an extremely violent and fierce aura. Although the worm was small, so small that it was only as big as his two knuckles, it was like a compressed disaster at the moment, which made the hairs on Caspian’s arms stand up. And at this moment, for some reason, a strong desire rose in his heart!
This desire seemed to be urging favonovel.com to swallow the little bug.
“Eat it…”
“Eat it!”
“Eat it, and you will get new power…”
The low voice was full of temptation at this moment.
Caspian’s face slowly approached the little worm. But the next moment, favonovel.com took a deep breath, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes. He quickly recovered his mind.
“This thing is trying to trick me,” Caspian’s eyes focused as favonovel.com looked at the little worm seriously.
The little worm still seemed to be ignorant, twisting inside the hole, as if it wanted to struggle out.
“Did this come from that jar?” Caspian asked in a low voice.
Although the insect was small, it didn’t look lethal. However, Caspian had just felt a horrible temptation on it. He then thought for a while, but there was no memory of this thing in his mind. And this little worm was very likely to be the key to exposing the secret of the Setting Sun Gate.
After some thought, Caspian took out his Beast Controller Plate and put the little worm in. After searching the place and making sure that there were no other small worms, Caspian bowed to the corpse again and then went out of the cave.
Tonight‘s discovery was beyond his expectation, and killing Holly Logan was also out of the plan. Therefore, when favonovel.com went back at this moment, favonovel.com had to discuss with Flame Gordon to make the next plan. As for what had happened in the cave before, Caspian could roughly guess through the traces left on the spot.
“Break the jars and raise this worm with cultivators’ blood. Judging from the number of jars on the scene, there should be a lot of worms, but I only saw this one. The rest should have been transferred away by the people from the Setting Sun Gate. The one I discovered should have been missed when it was transferred by them. After all, when they do such a bad thing, they will feel guilty even if they look at the dead bodies, let alone search for them…”
Under the cover of the night sky, Caspian quickly returned to the Setting Sun Gate while making a deduction.
***
Outside the courtyard where the honored guests rested, it was the third time that Ria Dam had spoken with several disciples of Setting Sun Gate.
“Ria Dam of the Setting Sun Gate, requests to see the disciples of the Upper Sect. I have something important to discuss with you…” He asked to see them again.
After waiting for a long time, favonovel.com still did not get any response. Ria Dam gradually frowned and felt more and more uneasy.
‘Could it be that the two disciples really have some action tonight? Did they really know something and come here to test us?’
Thinking of this, Ria Dam felt his heart suddenly sink.
‘No, in a few days, our plan will be completed. At such a critical moment, we must not fail because of a few small fish and shrimps! What the head senior brother said was right. If the Heaven’s Edge Sect really noticed something, then the people sent should be Masters, not the disciples of two Holy Land Realm cultivators…’
‘These two disciples, especially Flame Gordon, must have found out some clues for some reason, so they wanted to investigate. In that case, we have to kill this risk before they know the truth. It will be best if we can find out what they know, and who are in cahoots with them. Then, we follow the clues and catch them all in one fell swoop! In short, only the dead can keep it a secret!’
Thinking of this, Ria Dam‘s face suddenly showed a trace of killing intent. He had asked to see them three times in a row, but there was no response, which was enough to explain the problem. What they did this time was too risky, so no mistakes could be allowed before they succeeded.
He took a deep breath, made up his mind, and strode toward the courtyard.
After favonovel.com took a few steps, a layer of light film rose from the periphery of the courtyard. This was defense array that enveloped the courtyard. But this yard originally belonged to the Setting Sun Gate, so defense array was naturally set up by the Setting Sun Gate.
Ria Dam ignored it and walked straight to the door. He then knocked the door and said, “Two disciples of the Setting Sun Gate have disappeared nearby. The current situation is unclear and we are investigating thoroughly. If we offend you, please don‘t blame us…”
As soon as favonovel.com finished speaking, there was still no movement in the room. A murderous look appeared on Ria Dam’s face and favonovel.com was about to break through the door.
“After I open the door, if you two aren’t inside, then it won’t be up to you if anything happens again.”
An icy blue light appeared in his palm. Ria Dam was about to slap the door in front of him. But at this moment, the gate of the courtyard was suddenly opened.
