When Ding Hao entered, the cynical man smiled broadly and tossed the inscribed black iron aside which smashed and sunk, making a big pit. He said facetiously, “Why, little guy, you can’t help but ask the news of your mistress? Unfortunately, Xie Jieyu still hasn’t appeared, and there is no special news from Mu Tianyang.”


  Ding Hao nodded and sat down without speaking.

  Those days, he was really worried about the safety of Xie Jieyu.

  Xie Jieyu challenging Mu Tianyang was like giving up her life with her current strength and experience. Since Ding Hao had solved his problem in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, he wanted to find Xie Jieyu down the mountain.

  “I know what you are thinking, but I still advise you to abandon this idea,” Wang Juefeng said while pouring a pot of cold water on his head to rinse the sweat on his body. Wang Juefeng became serious.

  He looked at Ding Hao’s eyes and said seriously, “Your mistress is very safe. I can assure you that because the Sect would never allow an untimely death of such a peerless genius, they will definitely take some measures to protect her secretly. However, if you choose to go downhill at this time, your situation will become very dangerous, since the news came from Tranquility Academy that Lu Xian’er came around.”


  Ding Hao was shocked.

  “That evil and vicious woman finally came around?”


  “Being so, the Tranquility Academy already knows that it was me that killed so many of their disciples, near the ancient Sect site in the Western Rock mountain range from Lu Xian’er. The horrible revenge might come soon,” Ding Hao thought.

  “These three experts of the Tranquility Academy—”Book “, “Sword”, “Painting” are on the way to the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Although they dare not kill you inside the sect, they would relentlessly give chase to kill you, if you ever go downhill. With your current strength, you can only confront one of them. If they fight you jointly, you would die,”


  Wang Juefeng said directly.

  Li Ying nodded without saying a word.

  The cynical man smiled broadly. He continued to say while gloating over that, “There are still some bad news. The news that you killed Dragon with one eye of the Falling Star Sect somehow got out. So, his father, the Elder of the Falling Star Sect swore to kill you. He has already sent the most terrible killer of the sect to deal with you.”


  Ding Hao said calmly, “It’s fine. He would have found out sooner or later.”


  “Hey? Are you not afraid of this news at all?” The cynical man was disappointed with Ding Hao’s dull reaction. Then he said in a gloomy tone, “The Falling Star Sect is famous for its hidden weapons and assassination in the Snow Province. They resort to extreme measures. Instead of confronting face to face, they use hidden weapons, poison, kidnapping and plots, which are hard to prevent. Even some superiors will be cautious when facing the Falling Star Sect, the dark sect.”


  “Instructing a disciple like Dragon with one eye, the Falling Star Sect is not good. I won’t feel sorry when I kill them. Hey, if they want to kill me, then they should be ready to be killed by me.” Ding Hao grinned revealing a row of neat white teeth and said, “What’s more, the hidden weapons manuals plundered from Dragon with one eye last time are not enough. I recently need a few advanced manuals about hidden weapons.”


  “When did you become so cynical?” The cynical man said feeling very frustrated, after failing to intimidate him.

  Ding Hao smiled innocently.

  “You know that I’ve kept a grumpy devil cat who has lost all its good virtue. Moreover, a few days ago I became the disciple of a master who was disrespectful and unruly. Although I have always been kind and innocent, I slide into bad habits living together with these guys. Besides, you, the teacher-in-charge are not good neither. I have been with you for so long, how can I not learn the bad from you?”


  “F**ck, you’re not good,” the cynical man cried, “F**ck, I see it now. From the very beginning, you weren’t a good thing. You seem good-tempered, yet you’re actually very bad. No wonder so many people have been tricked by you. They were tricked by your hypocrisy.”


  Ding Hao laughed widely and said, “Hey, uncle, be a little polite. I am now a disciple of the Old Monster. According to seniority, I am afraid you have to call me martial uncle. As a descendant, how dare you be so rude?”


  The cynical man said in contempt, “Don’t be so arrogant when facing me. After you enter the Sword-hidden Peak, you will know……” Speaking up to that point, the cynical man suddenly thought of something and remained silent.

  “Know what?”


  “Hey, I almost leaked it. F**ck! I won’t tell you. I want you to be anxious. Haha,” The cynical man said and laughed smugly.

  Ding Hao could only despise that guy.

  After chatting for a while with him, Ding Hao suddenly became much relaxed.

  Since they had first met on the arena of the Eastern Academy of green shirts, the cynical man turned from the condescending strict teacher to his friend, with whom he could curse angrily and make fun of. Being with that annoying guy, Ding Hao always felt happy.

  “Oh, yes, the thing you asked me to inquire about had a result. The number of experts in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect with strength above Martial Mentor and beyond primordial is more than five hundred. I roughly searched that during this time, no one was suddenly injured nor had their hands or feet torn off. However, there were four inner disciples who met the above conditions who encountered demons and were torn into pieces in the wilderness when going out for adventure hunting.

  The cynical man said while taking a piece of paper from the storage space, which recorded the names and some details of the four dead inner disciples.

  Ding Hao took a close look at it for a moment and he was certain that none of those four dead sectmates were the bronze grimace mask man. That hidden assassin seemed to protect himself well enough to avoid the cynical man’s tracing, which meant his influence was immense.

  That matter could only be investigated later.

  “Well, I will stay in the Peak for a while. If there’s any news about Jieyu, please inform me right away,” Ding Hao said before leaving.

  The cynical man had an amazing ability.

  Perhaps because of his innate gossiping soul, he could always inquire about big or small things in the Snow Province. Even some small things happening in a corner, they could not escape his eyes and ears.

  That was why Ding Hao asked him for help about many things.

  “Okay, I know. Now leave.” The cynical man was very disdainful of Ding Hao about dedicating his thoughts about his mistress.

  So Ding Hao left the place.
