I accidentally killed a passerby.
Looking over, sure enough, a flush of red bloomed on Leng Ning's face.
Seeing Junior Sister still leaning in to look, Leng Ning immediately glared coquettishly and scolded, "How dare you tease your Senior Sister! I'll beat you to death, you stinky girl."
"Oh my, how is this teasing!" Junior Sister said crossly. "Your face was clearly red just now. If you like him, you like him; what is there to deny? Besides, Senior Zhong Qing is so outstanding."
"Yes, Senior Zhong Qing is so outstanding..." Leng Ning sighed suddenly.
"So even if I like him, what's the use? Our status at Wan Dao Mountain is decent, and we are even called Geniuses in the eyes of others in the Eastern Region, but in Senior's eyes, Wan Dao Mountain doesn't count for much."
"Therefore, we are simply not people from the same world!"
As she spoke, Leng Ning shook her head, feeling dejected.
Junior Sister pursed her lips and, for once, did not talk back, clearly deeply affected by what Leng Ning had said.
At this moment, Leng Ning glanced at the mountains ahead and said to Junior Sister, "Junior Sister, there are likely many Yao Beasts in these mountains. To be safe, let's find a place to rest for a while, and by the way, recover our Qi before setting off again."
"Okay."
Junior Sister nodded.
Afterward, the two women landed on the peak of a mountain and sat cross-legged on the ground.
Looking at the vast mountains in the distance, the scenery was breathtaking.
The two women first took a Qi-restoring pill, and after a brief period of meditation to recover, Junior Sister couldn't help but take out the wooden carving in her hand to play with and examine it.
"Senior Sister, you have to admit, the wooden carving Senior Zhong gave us is quite well-crafted; it looks so lifelike."
"Indeed, the facial features are distinct and the proportions are perfect."
Leng Ning also couldn't help but take out her wooden carving to examine it carefully, even tying a red string to the leg of the carving so it could be hung from her waist.
However, just as the two women were examining the wooden carvings and resting briefly.
In the mid-air not far away, a pair of scarlet eyes stared at the two women playfully.
"Wan Dao Mountain attire."
"I really didn't expect that in such a backwater place, I, Tian Nan, would still run into people from Wan Dao Mountain."
"It seems Heaven itself is helping me to take revenge on this damned Wan Dao Mountain. I had researched a Blood Sacrifice Formation for you all at Wan Dao Mountain that could dominate the world. Not only were you ungrateful, but you even dared to surround and annihilate me, making my life worse than death in that damned Sea of Depravity."
"Originally, in seven days, I was going to head straight to Wan Dao Mountain and slaughter everyone, but since I've bumped into two of you first, I'll just get rid of you while I'm at it."
"And looking at these two women's cultivation, their status probably isn't low. They are likely the precious darlings of some Elders, which will make those damned old fogeys suffer a bit more."
As he spoke, that pale and somewhat eerie face revealed a sinister look. He licked his tongue and descended directly from the sky, reaching out to grab the two women.
Facing a sudden attack of this level, the two women didn't even notice the slightest movement; they were still playing with the wooden carvings in their hands.
However, at this moment, the wooden carving in Junior Sister's hand suddenly erupted with dazzling light, appearing like a brilliant little sun on the mountain peak.
"Ah, what is happening?"
Junior Sister was suddenly frightened by the wooden carving in her hand.
Leng Ning, who was beside her, was equally incredulous, because her own wooden carving had also flickered for an instant just now, but it seemed that after seeing Junior Sister's wooden carving light up, that spark of light had faded away.
Could these wooden carvings be more than just ordinary carvings?
Just as the two women were puzzled, the brilliantly glowing wooden carving in Junior Sister's hand suddenly unleashed a radiant wave of light from within itself, shooting towards the mid-air not far away.
In mid-air, Tian Nan, who was in the middle of attacking, naturally discovered the brilliant light erupting beside the two women, which was so dazzling he couldn't even open his eyes.
"What kind of treasure is this?"
"And have I been discovered?"
"But it doesn't matter. In the face of absolute strength, all other methods are just flashy tricks."
Tian Nan looked disdainful.
It wasn't until that wave of light struck that his expression changed drastically.
Because the speed of this light wave was too fast, so fast that he didn't have time to dodge.
When he looked down, he realized his chest had been pierced through, with a hole as large as a bowl appearing.
Intense pain spread throughout his body, and Tian Nan reflexively let out a scream.
"Ah!"
The scream pierced through the mountains and forests. Tian Nan stared with wide eyes, unwilling to die, and like a bird with broken wings in mid-air, he fell directly into the forest.
The two women were staring blankly at the transformed wooden carvings in their hands when they heard a scream coming from the sky not far away.
"Oh, I accidentally killed someone."
Junior Sister was immediately panicked, holding the wooden carving, not knowing what to do.
At this moment, the wooden carving, after unleashing that shockwave, had returned to its original state, though if one looked closely, the texture of the carving was not as good as before.
"Let's go, hurry and take a look."
Leng Ning also frowned and took Junior Sister to fly towards the place where that person had fallen.
Soon, the two found the victim.
At this moment, beside the victim, three or five low-level Yao Wolves were gathered, twitching their noses, as if they were about to enjoy this meal that had fallen from the sky.
"Get lost."
Leng Ning shouted violently, driving these few Yao Wolves away, and then went to the man's side to check his breath.
"He has no breath left," Leng Ning said, frowning.
"Ah, what should we do, Senior Sister?"
Junior Sister stood there, completely at a loss, and said with a look of repentance, "Senior Sister, I really didn't mean to. I don't even know what I touched, but the wooden carving started glowing and attacked the sky."
"I know you didn't mean to," Leng Ning took a deep breath.
She naturally realized that what Zhong Qing had given them was by no means an ordinary wooden carving, but a super treasure capable of unleashing ultra-powerful attacks.
It was just that they didn't seem to know how to use it very well yet.
And they had also accidentally killed a passerby.
"I was wrong, I was wrong. Big Brother, I really didn't mean to. Big Brother, please don't die with your eyes wide open. I really didn't mean to."
Looking at the corpse still staring with its eyes wide open, Junior Sister clasped her hands together in prayer, repenting incessantly, and was so anxious she kept stomping her feet.
"Senior Sister, what should we do?" Junior Sister looked at Leng Ning beside her and said anxiously.
Leng Ning held her forehead.
In fact, she was also speechless.
In her opinion, this guy's luck was truly terrible. This kind of unlucky way to die was even more absurd than a normal person walking down the street and getting hit by a meteorite falling from the sky.
Actually, regarding this matter, the two women could have easily destroyed the body and left.
After all, no one saw them in this mountain forest.
But after all, the two women were inexperienced in the world, and their consciences could not let it go.
Moreover, according to the path of Cultivate at Wan Dao Mountain, this kind of thing involves Karma.
After deep thought for a long time, Leng Ning finally said, "The person is already dead and cannot be resurrected, but perhaps after we find out his identity, we can find his family, go to their door to apologize and compensate, and make amends that way."
"But how do we find out his identity?" Junior Sister couldn't help but ask. "The clothing he is wearing is not from any Sect, and there are no identification marks at all."
Hearing this, Leng Ning hesitated slightly, then said, "Then we have no choice but to take his body back to Wan Dao Mountain first, and later use the influence of Wan Dao Mountain to find his identity."
