Chapter 946:

The martial world is a place where people eat people!

Experienced individuals can devour the fresh newcomers.

With the package containing Xuanyuan Black Iron in her arms, Shisu couldnt help but shed tears. Master, masters wife, now that Qiantang Sect is no more, I am the only one left, a wandering soul. Holding a piece of Xuanyuan Black Iron that I dont know how to use, how can I avenge your blood and fulfill your unfinished ideals?

She had just finished crying when suddenly a person appeared in front of her. Startled, she couldnt even see who the newcomer was and swiftly drew her sword, slashing towards the figure.

The person took a step back to avoid the blade and smiled, Miss, dont be alarmed, its me.

Only now did Shisu recognize that it was Robb in front of her. However, seeing him did not ease her tension. She tightly gripped her longsword and asked, How did you follow me? I distinctly saw no one tracking me.

Miss, your experience in the martial world is still a bit lacking, Robb chuckled. There are countless ways to track someone. Its really not that simple to elude pursuit.

Shisu held her sword in her right hand, pointing it at Robb cautiously without moving. With her left hand, she slowly moved the cloth-wrapped package on her back, her movements deliberate and slow. Her attention was entirely focused on Robb. When defending against a firearm attack, it was essential to observe the opponents movements closely. Any tiny detail should not be missed. The moment the enemy made a move to raise their hand, she needed to dodge immediately.

In a stern voice, she said, I admit that your tracking skills are impressive. If you want the Xuanyuan Black Iron, go ahead and try. But dont blame me for not warning you. Although I am a disciple of a reputable sect and do not easily harm others, if you attempt to steal my belongings, I wont show any mercy.

Robb shook his head with a smile, Dont be nervous. As Ive said before, I dont intend to steal. Im only interested in doing business. Right now, I just want to discuss buying this piece of Xuanyuan Black Iron from you.

Shisus rabbit-like face contorted slightly, possibly expressing disdain, but rabbit expressions were truly hard to interpret. She spoke in a low voice, You should know that this is a priceless treasure, not something that can be measured with money.

Shisu responded, Im trying to escape for my life right now. I dont have time for idle chatter.

In that case, you shouldnt talk, Robb smiled. The few sentences you just spoke disrupted your true energy flow, slowing you down by 2.5%. Tsk tsk. Even if you dont slow down, youre still slower than the pursuers behind you. Based on our current relative speed, I estimate you have about three minutes before they catch up.

Shisu didnt understand the concept of three minutes because clocks were not yet widespread in the East. People used various measures of time, such as the time it takes to burn one stick of incense or the time it takes for a cup of hot tea to cool. It was all quite chaotic, without any standard.

She pricked up her long ears and listened. Sure enough, the pursuers behind her had drawn much closer. When she turned her head, she could already see the fastest figures among them.

Shisu couldnt help but feel a bit panicked. She didnt need to think too hard to guess that the pursuers behind her were the enemies who had destroyed the Qiantang Sect. Their cultivation levels were certainly higher than those of her master and masters wife. She had no chance against them, and being pursued by them likely meant facing a life-and-death situation.

With these thoughts in mind, she couldnt help but panic.

At this moment, Robb chimed in again, You still have time to make a decision. As long as you give me the stone, Ill ensure your safety.

Shisu responded irritably, Only a fool would accept such a condition. I could just toss the stone back to them and still preserve my life. Why should I give it to you?

Robb smiled, Thats not possible. Even if they obtain the stone, theyll still kill you because, by killing you, they can protect the secret of the stone falling into their hands. Xuanyuan Black Iron is too precious, and whoever possesses it will attract aggression. They are probably afraid they wont be able to fend off even more formidable sects. So, they must eliminate you to feel secure. Whether you give them the stone or not, youll still die.

Shisus face paled

Robb continued, I understand your attachment to the treasure your sect guarded so fiercely. However, if you die, what use is there in keeping this stone? Its better to hand it over to me and let me use it in a more worthy manner. Dont you think so?
