Chapter 1075 Dongfang Ziyu

It was dark on the mountain at night, so it was difficult to see the road ahead, but it wasn’t a problem for Gu Ning. In addition, Leng Shaoting had the night-luminescent pearl to light the road for him.

Before long, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting arrived at the edge of the valley.

Gu Ning looked down at the bottom which was covered in black Yin. Although Gu Ning had her magical power to protect herself, it still felt cold and creepy.

Luckily, Leng Shaoting was wearing the night-luminescent pearl now, or the Yin would hurt his physical body.

After that, Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes, trying to see what was in the valley.

She found that the valley was a circle with a diameter of about a dozen meters, and it was about 30 meters tall.

The bottom of the valley wasn’t very big. Except for a river flowing from a cave, there were all stones and trees.

Gu Ning checked the cave. There was nothing special in it, but she saw something reflecting green from the bottom of the cave pond which was about 10 meters deep.

She took a closer look, and it turned out to be a large piece of jade.

There was a pile of stones, or jade raw materials to be specific, under the pond. Many of them had jade inside, including a giant one which was a meter long and half meter in diameter.

The pile of jade raw materials could be the hidden treasure people were talking about.

Since she already found them, she couldn’t miss this chance. However, how should she explain it to Leng Shaoting? Even if she got the pile of jade raw materials, how should she move them back?

Gu Ning hesitated over whether she should tell Leng Shaoting about her Jade Eyes right now.

At this moment, she heard some noises, and noticed a young man and woman walking over towards them. Both of them were in their early twenties.

“Someone is coming. Let’s hide first,” Gu Ning said, then pulled Leng Shaoting to the other side.

Leng Shaoting frowned, because he didn’t sense anything abnormal.

After walking for a few steps, Gu Ning stopped and said to Leng Shaoting, “Give me the night-luminescent pearl now. If they are members of the Evil Practice, they will be able to find us because of its magical power.”

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting took it off at once and gave it to Gu Ning.

Nevertheless, the moment the night-luminescent pearl left his body, he felt quite cold and trembled a little.

Gu Ning wouldn’t allow Leng Shaoting to be hurt by the cold, so she took out a porcelain bottle with 10 power crystals inside. “Take a pill whenever you feel uncomfortable.”

There was too much Yin in this mountain, and a single power crystal had a limited effect, which was the reason why Gu Ning gave Leng Shaoting the night-luminescent pearl at first.

“Sure.” Leng Shaoting took a pill without delay. He trusted Gu Ning no matter what she told him. Even if it was poisonous, he would still take it.

After taking a pill, Leng Shaoting felt much better and continued to walk forward with Gu Ning.

Once Gu Ning put away the night-luminescent pearl, she found that the young man and woman stopped too. They exchanged a glance with one another and felt quite confused.

“The magical power is gone,” the woman said with a frown.

“Ziyu, maybe your feeling was wrong. This mountain is full of Yin, so it’s impossible to find magical power here,” the man said.

The woman was the one who sensed magical power around them.

“No way, I couldn’t be wrong,” the woman, whose name was Dongfang Ziyu, said in annoyance. “The magical power couldn’t disappear all of a sudden either, unless it’s from an object which is attached to a person. Its owner must be a master.”

Dongfang Ziyu was indeed very smart.

They weren’t ordinary people since they knew about magical power. In fact, they were people who were practicing their inner discipline.

“Since its owner is a master, we can’t grab the object with magical power away,” the man, whose name was Wu Shunhua, said.

Hearing that, a touch of disappointment flashed by Dongfang Ziyu’s eyes, but she had to accept this fact.

“Fine, let’s go find Dongfang Pei now!” Dongfang Ziyu said, then left.

Dongfang Pei was Dongfang Ziyu’s uncle, who was the man of the Evil Practice that Gu Ning just killed.

Dongfang Ziyu disrespected Dongfang Pei precisely because Dongfang Pei joined the Evil Practice. It was totally unacceptable in their family.

Dongfang Pei had harmed countless people, so the Dongfang family sent them to punish him. They had searched for him for a long time, then heard that Dongfang Pei was living on this mountain now.

Even though they knew his location, it was still hard to find him because this mountain was too large.

A few minutes later, Dongfang Ziyu and Wu Shunhua found Dongfang Pei’s body, which shocked them.

“He’s dead! Who did it?” Dongfang Ziyu was confused, then she thought of the master that she just mentioned. “Did the master with the object of magical power kill him?”

Wu Shunhua didn’t believe in the master and magical power until he saw Dongfang Pei’s dead body.

“Since he’s already dead, we can directly bring his body home,” Wu Shunhua said. Their aim was to punish Dongfang Pei. No matter who killed him, their task was fulfilled.
