Chapter 84 - Phantom Trail

Ye Yang first took out the small bag and probed it with his mind. There was a space with a circumference of ten li inside.

Furthermore, there were all sorts of flowers, plants and trees, just like a large garden.

Ye Yang couldn't help but to be shocked by the methods of the High Lord Rank's experts.

After playing with it for a while, Ye Yang kept the pet bag into his bosom and took out the ring.

Ye Yang was pleasantly surprised to find out that this was actually a high grade spatial ring that could accommodate three thousand meters. He couldn't help but look forward to it.

There were many pills inside, but Ye Yang wasn't interested in them and directly ignored them.

However, when Ye Yang saw the two secret scriptures, his heart immediately jumped.

Ye Yang took out one of the books.

Opening it to take a look, Lin Ming was overjoyed. This was a secret skill that allowed a martial artist to restrain their breath and prevent others from sensing their cultivation.

This was a good thing. It was a must technique to play the pig to eat the tiger. No wonder this fellow was wearing a cloak, making it impossible for others to sense his cultivation level.

Putting away this secret scripture and looking at the other one, Ye Yang felt another wave of shock, "Phantom Mirage".

This was precisely the thing that almost took his life. Today's battle could be said to be extremely dangerous, and if it wasn't for Ye Yang's special skill, he probably would have died today due to this strange skill.

Actually, this special ability has been with Ye Yang for a long time. It's just that he only used it today.

Ye Yang had killed a Scarlet Flame Wolf when the Eight Desolate City entered the mountains to train. After eating its flesh, Ye Yang's sense of smell had increased by countless times.

However, Ye Yang had never told anyone before, so he was too embarrassed to tell others. However, it was precisely because of this ability that he saved Ye Yang's life today.

After dodging the first attack of the cloaked man, the cloaked man's sword was stained with Ye Yang's blood. By relying on the smell on the sword, Ye Yang was able to determine the general location of the sword.

But after a few more experiments to confirm that there were no mistakes, he finally retaliated and killed the cloaked man in one go.

With this skill right in front of his eyes, how could he not be excited?

He carefully opened the book and found that the words on it were all handwritten and the handwriting was extremely ugly.

Ye Yang couldn't help but be taken aback. He only found out after he looked at it that this was copied by the cloaked man himself.

He was one of the Silver Assassins, a member of the hitman organization known throughout the continent.

After an assassination, he had coincidentally obtained a bone fragment. He had accidentally triggered the soul imprint on it and found out about the 'Phantom Mirage' recorded on it.

After this person obtained the secret technique, he immediately hid in the depths of the mountains. Only after he had mastered the « Illusion Disorientating Technique » did he exit the mountain full of confidence.

He felt that he was already invincible among his peers. Even if he met a king level expert, he would still be able to fight.

As soon as he entered the Tianwu Empire, he accepted a mission to assassinate the First Prince at a secret stronghold. Moreover, the reward for this mission was extremely generous.

After entering the imperial capital, after a few days of observation, he discovered that the First Prince had always had four military generals following him, so there was no chance for him to make a move.

However, the assassins were all very patient and kept waiting for their chance. Before the chance came, they waited for the Galo Auction House to auction the pet bag and their hearts were immediately set ablaze.

This was because he planned to retire to a remote place after completing this business and found a remote place to establish his own small faction to be the Sect Leader.

After all, pet bag was an extremely long-faced item, and was even a symbol of status. It would definitely be useful in the future.

The reason why they didn't fight with Ye Yang over the bone fragments in the auction house was because they were afraid of attracting the attention of experts.

But sadly, Ye Yang killed him and stole his goods. It could be said that he died before he could get out of the training.

However, before he died, he did a good thing, which was to record the entirety of "Phantom Mirage".

The record in the bone shard was a one-time inheritance item. Once triggered, it would become a waste.

And for the sake of letting his descendants remember his achievements, cloaked man wrote it down as a family heirloom.

Ye Yang was speechless. In the end, he even added his own personal life story to the handwritten account of his glorious life.

Ye Yang inwardly shook his head. He'd seen shameless people before, but never before had he seen such a shameless person.

He tore off the first dozen or so pieces of paper and put them into his storage ring. Then, he turned the remaining half of the paper into powder and threw it into the trash can.

After a final check, other than the longsword, there were actually eight other artifacts. This made Ye Yang overjoyed.

In the entire Eight Desolate City Disciple, only Ye Yang and Ye Qingxuan possessed a treasure. The others didn't even have a hundred refined weapons, they were all normal weapons.

This made Ye Yang very embarrassed. With so many treasures here today, he should be able to get one for each of them.

Aside from weapons, this guy also has over a dozen crystal cards. Ye Yang carefully counted the numbers on the screen, which actually reached a terrifying thirty million.

It seemed like this guy must have killed many people all these years to accumulate so much wealth. Otherwise, he might not be able to make so much by simply being an assassin.

He looked through it again. There were many things inside that were very messy. After searching for a long time, he did not find anything else he needed, so he kept the ring.

From now on, she would hand over the ring to her cousin, and it would be just right for her to organize the items. It was her strong point.

After he finished counting, he realized that more than an hour had passed. Ye Yang twisted his slightly sore arms and suddenly saw that Feng Qinger had fallen asleep on the table.

Had the current her been dreaming of something? Tears hung on her tranquil face.

Ye Yang felt a wave of pity. In his previous life, if she was still a child at her age and was being cared for by his parents, he would be able to grow up carefree.

After more than a year of torture, she was already extremely exhausted. It was with great difficulty that she found a safe haven. This was the first time she felt safe, so she was able to sleep in peace.

Ye Yang gently lifted her up. She was probably too sleepy. She didn't wake up until Ye Yang placed her on the bed.

Ye Yang gently pulled up the blanket for her and saw that her silver hair was scattered all over the pillow. Although his pretty face was still young and tender, his devastatingly beautiful temperament was already evident.

Ye Yang unconsciously wanted to kiss her, but Ye Yang suddenly came to his senses and quickly turned his body around.

He secretly cursed himself as a beast. Since the other party encountered such misfortune, how could they take advantage of it at this moment?

Taking a few deep breaths, he calmed himself down and turned out the light on the bedside table, allowing her to sleep more comfortably.

Ye Yang once again arrived at the table and took out the bone piece from his ring. His heart was filled with anticipation.

The last time he had gotten the [Dark Gold Body of Dragon and Elephant], he didn't know what treasures he could get this time.

As he probed the bone shard with his soul force, a piece of information was sent into Ye Yang's mind.

What made Ye Yang stunned was that this wasn't a cultivation technique nor a battle skill, but a map.

On the map, there were five mountains. One of them looked as if it had been cut in half by a single blade.

On the right side of the mountain, there was a small red dot.

Ye Yang confirmed that he didn't recognize this place, and it wasn't on the Tianwu Empire's map either. He could only firmly memorize this map in his mind.

Although this bone fragment didn't directly benefit Ye Yang, he wasn't a greedy person.

After obtaining pet bag, a spatial ring, a large amount of gold coins, and two secret manuals, Ye Yang was already very satisfied.

He sat cross-legged on the floor and began to meditate and meditate on the 'restraining breath technique' and the 'Phantom Mirage'.

On the morning of the second day, after a night of studying, Ye Yang had basically mastered two secret manuals. All he lacked was cultivation.

The 'restraining breath technique' was a type of control over one's aura. Through a unique method of operation, one could hide their aura completely, or hide part of their strength.

On the other hand, 'Phantom Mirage' was much more complicated. This was a very clever trick of using the energy within one's body to create illusions in the surrounding space and hide oneself.

Just as Ye Yang finished cultivating, the sound of footsteps could be heard, followed by a soft knock on the door.

Ye Wen opened the door and saw Wu Youlan wearing a white dress as she stood outside the door.

Seeing Ye Yang's hair in a mess and his eyes turn red, his face immediately turned red as he scolded, "You don't even know how to control yourself at such a young age. If you're not afraid, can't you understand this little girl?"

Ye Yang was stunned from being scolded. He was at a loss for what to do for a long time. Last night he really went too far with his brain. Now he was actually stunned speechless.

Seeing that Ye Yang did not say anything, Wu Youlan truly believed that she had guessed correctly and could not help but become angry. She was just about to continue to teach Ye Yang a few words.

Feng Qinger, who was on the bed, let out a cry as she jumped up. She quickly ran over and said with fear and trepidation, "Master, I'm sorry. I'll immediately help you wash up."

Wu Youlan saw that Feng Qinger was still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, and there wasn't the slightest difference in the way she walked, so she immediately realized that she had wrongly accused Ye Yang.

Ye Yang was startled, and just as he was about to open the embroidered box, he saw that Feng Qinger had already filled a basin with water for her face, and was holding a towel for him to wash up.

He then kept the embroidered box and walked in front of Feng Qinger.

Feng Qinger passed the wrung out towel in her hand to Ye Yang and said, "Please wash your face, Master."

Ye Yang did not accept the towel, and extended his hand to pull Feng Qinger's hand, saying with a stern expression, "Qing Er, I have something important to tell you."

Seeing how serious Ye Yang was, Feng Qinger hurriedly said, "Please give your instructions, Master!"

"Qing Er, you should know that your path home is very long and is fraught with dangers. You'll encounter countless bad people. Can you help me if I'm alone?" Ye Yang said.

"Everything that Qing Er owns belongs to Master. Even if it costs my life, I will fight with Master to the bitter end," Feng Qinger said with a resolute expression.

"Alright, then we'll work together, but your current strength is very weak." Ye Yang had a rough sense of the situation, Feng Qinger's cultivation was only at the Sixth Sky of the Fighter.

"Don't do these tasks in the future. You won't be able to help me this way. From today onwards, you must work hard in cultivation. Only if you become stronger will you be able to protect me."

"Un, I will listen to Master and Brother. Whoever wants to hurt Master and Brother, needs to step over my dead body," Feng Qinger's beautiful face was filled with sincerity, making others unable to doubt her words.

Seeing that she agreed, Ye Yang felt a surge of joy in his heart. Being constantly attended by others made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

The little girl was very simple. She probably wouldn't understand if he said something else, but when he said he was going to protect her, she happily agreed.

Only then did Ye Yang have the chance to take out the embroidered box. Opening it to take a look, he was immediately overjoyed, because a rune was quietly lying inside.

Suddenly, a cold shout rang out as dozens of people surrounded Ye Yang's room.
