Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Learning the News (Please Favorite and Vote for Recommendation)

By now, daylight had broken. Bai Ziyue walked along the street, not daring to glance around too much, and soon arrived near North Street.

Entering through the mouth of a small alley in the North Street area, Bai Ziyue skillfully made his way to the back entrance of the Sunburst Gang Branch.

Suddenly, Bai Ziyue’s brow furrowed slightly.

From his angle, he just so happened to see two people standing in a corner of the alley, covertly observing the back entrance of the Sunburst Gang Branch.

The instant Bai Ziyue’s gaze met theirs, he could clearly sense their attempt to evade and their panic.

But soon, upon seeing him, their expressions turned into disbelief.

"From that position... Are they surveilling? Surveilling whom?

At the back entrance, besides some farmers transporting food and wood daily, only apprentices would pass through here.

*Wait a minute, initially when I discovered them, their expressions were of panic, which is only natural for guilty people, they’re all like that.*

*But that subsequent surprise and disbelief on their faces, that’s really worth pondering...*"

Bai Ziyue was puzzled, and suddenly his expression changed drastically.

"They’re surveilling me!"

*His heart clenched tightly.*

*Because he had left when it was still dark early in the morning, and they surely had been watching outside since early morning, seeing him return from outside was naturally unbelievable.*

"Persistent Yin Soul, huh?"

Bai Ziyue’s face turned sour, quickly guessing who had sent them.

He gazed once more at the two men, seeing that they still stood there without intending to leave, his face instantly hardened, and he walked over without hesitation.

*Passively waiting for others to strike had never been his style.*

*He preferred to take the initiative.*

If that Ghost-Nurturing Evil Cultivator showed up, he might still feel a bit panicky, as the opponent could control ghostly entities, surely possessing extraordinary means, especially the superbly mysterious magic that he was extremely wary of.

But facing two ordinary men who obviously hadn’t cultivated, given his physique twice that of an adult, he wouldn’t fear them the least bit.

Compared to Liu the Sixth, whom he had just slain, these two were as weak as chicks.

Seeing Bai Ziyue dared to walk directly toward them, the two young men were initially stunned but soon found themselves thrilled.

In their eyes, even though Bai Ziyue was a Sunburst Gang apprentice, the age he appeared to be made it impossible for him to be a match for two adults.

Originally, they had been worried; if Bai Ziyue always stayed inside the Sunburst Gang Branch, they were merely surveilling, how could they achieve merit?

Now, things were looking bright. As soon as they captured Bai Ziyue and brought him to the Immortal Master, they would naturally receive rewards, and might even learn the Immortal Technique...

Thinking of this, the two men grinned menacingly, saying, "You refuse to walk the path to heaven, yet here you come barging into hell."

Then they swiftly charged forward, wanting to seize Bai Ziyue.

"Indeed, just two small-time thugs, truly ignorant of a Martial Artist’s power."

Bai Ziyue sighed, his hands darting out like lightning, grabbing each man’s arm, and with a squeeze and a twist.

With a crack, their arms were immediately snapped by him.

Subsequently, Bai Ziyue quickly kicked twice, directly booting them away, causing them to slam harshly into the other side of the alley.

"Ah... it hurts so much..."

"My hand... my hand’s broken..."

Only then did their cries of anguish echo out.

"Too noisy."

Bai Ziyue’s eyes flashed with fierce light. He quickly approached one of them, delivering another vicious kick, sending some teeth flying mixed with blood.

Then soon, he moved to the other, stamping directly on the man’s head.

He hadn’t even exerted his full strength, yet he had easily subdued the two of them.

Moreover, though his frame was still somewhat slender, his strength was astonishing, and the thug trapped under his leg couldn’t break free.

"What... what do you want?"

He asked, somewhat panicked.

"Who sent you here to surveil me?"

Bai Ziyue asked coldly.

"No one... No one... Ah..."

This thug’s eyes shifted, trying to bluff his way out, but how would Bai Ziyue even allow such an opportunity? His other foot stomped directly on the man’s arm bend, releasing power, and with a crack, the other arm broke again.

"You don’t have to speak, but I’ll see how many arms and legs you have left to break."

Bai Ziyue’s tone was icy, his gaze brutal.

"I’ll talk, I’ll talk..." The youth’s face was covered in sweat, not daring to hide anything, quickly saying, "We don’t know who he is, just that he’s an Immortal Master who controls the Immortal Technique.

He had us surveil you here, instructing us to notify immediately if we noticed you leaving through the back door."

"Is that right?"

Bai Ziyue looked to the other man.

The man nodded quickly, saying, "Yes, I remember the Immortal Master said you’d taken something of his."

"Taken something of his?"

Bai Ziyue was taken aback, suddenly recalling the round jade he acquired from the female ghost.

Though he had kept that piece of jade, after examining it without findings, he hadn’t paid it much mind, initially intending to find a Pawnshop Hall to sell it for some money. It appeared now that there might be another mystery to it.

"What does he look like? Any distinguishing features? How powerful is he?"

Following up swiftly, Bai Ziyue asked.

*Given that the adversary clearly had him thoroughly investigated, he naturally wanted to acquire some knowledge about them. He didn’t want to be caught off guard if they suddenly attacked.*

*Indeed, if confronted, he’d want to be wary.*

"The Immortal Master... He stands about seven feet tall, appears quite young, yet his face is sallow, often wearing a black-purple Daoist robe. Oh, there’s a large black mole near his ear on his face..."

"At his waist, you could often see a yellow gourd hanging, seeming to emit a peculiar smell, hard to pinpoint, sort of like a rotting corpse stench."

The other person continued to add.

Nodding slightly, Bai Ziyue then had a basic understanding of the evil cultivator’s image.

Nurturing Ghosts, with a large black mole on his face, the yellow gourd hanging at his waist was likely a legendary Dharma Treasure?

"So, we’ve said everything, can we leave now?"

Seeing Bai Ziyue contemplating silently, one of the thugs boldly asked.

"Let you leave?"

Bai Ziyue’s eyes showed a glint of cold light, but he spoke indifferently, "Naturally, but since he’s being so brazen, I should retaliate a bit, send some gifts back, tit for tat, isn’t that so?"

Then, a series of screams rang out from the mouths of the two men.

A minute later, Bai Ziyue walked out of the rather secluded alley.

Of course, he hadn’t killed them. Even in Qinghe Town, if it involved life, a small matter could become major. He didn’t wish to court such trouble.

Nevertheless, it wasn’t sensible to easily let go of two who dared to surveil him.

Unless the Ghost-Nurturing Evil Cultivator came to heal them, those two would likely rely on crutches for the rest of their lives.
