Chapter 147 Hong Huang, came to Xigua Town
Hong Huang gently closed the window, then quickly formed seals with his hands. Mysterious rays of light shot out from his fingertips, interweaving into complex formation patterns in the air. Then, he took out several talismans emitting spiritual light from his arms and pasted them in various corners of the room. After doing all this, Hong Huang walked to the bed with peace of mind and slowly lay down.
Hong Huang was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling, his thoughts drifting away like a wild horse. In fact, Hong Huang left the sect earlier than Lin Fan, because he had made up his mind to go out for training a long time ago and had made sufficient preparations for this.
From the moment he left Wuzong, he had already decided on his first stop: the small town he'd visited before, renowned for its delicious watermelons. But there was more to it than that. Legends of a mysterious "watermelon bloodline" lingered there, filling Hong Huang with curiosity and yearning.
Thinking back to when he first came to this small town, although he was fascinated by the legendary watermelon bloodline, he did not dare to investigate in depth due to his limited strength. Now, after a period of hard training, Hong Huang feels that his strength has improved significantly compared to before, and he has more confidence to explore the truth.
However, what Hong Huang didn't anticipate was that he had completely forgotten the exact location of the dry well he had discovered earlier, which concealed a secret. In desperation, he had to resort to the same method as last time: quietly following those mysterious figures in purple. But who could have imagined that at the first step of implementing his plan, an unexpected situation suddenly occurred...
Just as Hong Huang was crouching near the melon stall with full concentration, suddenly, two black shadows approached the stall silently and quickly like ghosts. Both of them were wearing black tights, and their faces were hidden in the shadows, making it difficult to see their true appearance.
When they arrived at the melon stall, they had some dispute with the stall owner for some reason. At first, the two sides just exchanged words, but as the argument gradually escalated, the atmosphere became more tense.
Finally, the melon stall owner couldn't bear it anymore and his anger exploded in an instant. He suddenly picked up a huge watermelon on the stall and threw it at the two men in black with all his strength. The watermelon flew out like a cannonball, rushing towards the target with a sharp wind.
However, the two men in black were obviously no ordinary people. Facing the flying watermelon, one of them dodged it easily by moving sideways, while the other kicked the watermelon to pieces, splashing the juice everywhere.
The action of the melon stall owner completely enraged the men in black. Their anger erupted like a volcano. Without saying a word, the two of them attacked at the same time and smashed several watermelons on the melon stall crazily. For a moment, the melon pulp, seeds and broken rinds flew everywhere, and the melon stall that was originally neatly arranged became a mess.
Seeing his beloved watermelons destroyed like this, the watermelon stall owner could no longer suppress his anger. He roared, waved his fists and rushed straight towards the two men in black. In an instant, a fierce fight broke out.
Unfortunately, although the melon stall owner tried his best, he was far inferior to the two well-trained men in black in front of him in terms of strength and skills. Before long, he gradually fell into a disadvantage and was hit by several punches and kicks.
Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable, the melon stall owner knew that if he continued like this he would only suffer more severe physical pain. So, after weighing the pros and cons, he made a quick decision to give up resistance and turned around and ran away.
While running, the melon stall owner did not forget to turn around and shout at the two men in black: "Just wait for me! I will not let you go easily if I don't take revenge!" After shouting, he disappeared in the bustling crowd without looking back, leaving only broken watermelons on the ground and the two men in black with smug looks on their faces standing there.
Faced with the melon stall owner's final stubbornness of refusing to yield and back down, the two tall men in black standing in front of him first looked at each other, then raised their heads and laughed at the same time. Their laughter was as sharp and piercing as a night owl, echoing in the air and making people feel creepy.
After laughing, one of the men in black looked at the melon stall owner with a playful expression on his face and shouted in a tone full of provocation and threats, "Hmph, you fool! You dare to go against us? Let me tell you, we're going to join the Devil Blood Cult soon! Once we become disciples of the Devil Blood Cult, we'll see how arrogant you can be! When that happens, you'd better not come to us crying like a stray dog, begging for your life, hahahaha!"
Another man in black immediately echoed, "That's right. If you know what's good for you, kneel down and beg for mercy now, and maybe we can let you go. Otherwise, you'll be in trouble when we gain a foothold in the Demon Blood Cult!" After saying that, the two of them laughed unscrupulously again.
At this moment, Hong Huang, who had been watching coldly from the side, suddenly felt something in his heart. When he heard the three words "Demon Blood Sect", a strong curiosity instantly surged in his heart. The mystery of the "Watermelon Bloodline" that had been lingering in his mind seemed to become unimportant all of a sudden. At this moment, what occupied his entire mind was only the curiosity and desire to explore this mysterious sect.
After an intense ideological struggle deep in his heart, Hong Huang finally made a decision - he must find out what the so-called "Devil Blood Cult" is at all costs. So, when the two men in black turned around and left, Hong Huang followed them carefully, always keeping a safe distance to avoid being discovered.
In this way, Hong Huang followed the two men in black with strange movements all the way through the bustling downtown, walked along the rugged mountain road, and finally came to an extremely desolate and remote place. The place was surrounded by weeds and sparsely populated. There was only a dilapidated village that looked abandoned for a long time standing alone not far away.
"The location should be here, but I don't know how long it will take for the examiner to arrive. But no matter how the examiner sets the questions, we will eventually pass. After all, you and I are both gifted."
"That's natural, but I always feel like something's wrong. It's like someone has been following us since we left that town. But it's just a feeling, I don't have any substantial evidence."
"Now that you mention it, I seem to have a similar feeling. I happen to have a method I can try. If it succeeds, I should be able to find out if someone is following us after we fall down."
