1702 Fan Gu's Methods

"Are we able to investigate where this Clear Sky Faction's lair is?"

It truly didn't feel nice to be stalked.

Qiao Mu liked to be direct in everything she did. Since she had already confirmed the enemy's existence, then naturally, the next step was to find a way to exterminate them.

Qiuqiu waved its thin branches and climbed up onto Qiao Mu's shoulder. It said while shaking its head, "We've only just arrived in the Shuntian Prefecture and aren't familiar with the environment here. Masta, why don't you first be patient. Wait until Qiuqiu is able to build up a certain connection with the plants in Shuntian Prefecture. At that time it will be easy to gather useful information."

That was the only way. Qiao Mu naturally knew that some things couldn't be rushed.

Qiuqiu had only just entered the late-toddler stage. If it used up too much energy, it might even have to go into closed-door cultivation again due to the fatigue.

According to her observations, it was very possible for this sapling to be sacred wood's physical body.

Even though she still could not figure out why this tree was growing in her dantian's mystic niche when she had been reborn.

Qiao Mu patted the little treant's head. "Let's go."

"Roar!" The snow leopard was nuzzling against her leg. Suddenly, it roared angrily and darted before Qiao Mu to block her with its huge body.

The snow leopard used its steely claws to smack away the five metal arrows that came flying over from mid-air.

Qiao Mu gazed coldly at the line of masked gray-clothed people that had appeared abruptly.

Each of them had covered their faces with a gray face cloth. They were wielding heavy bows and shot arrows at her without any hesitation.

Do not underestimate these metal arrows as they were not drawn by normal people.

Each of these iron arrows were imbued with the archer's spiritual energy. That was why they could be shot from farther away and also with abnormal speed.

After the snow leopard smacked away several metal arrows, various spiritual energies exploded in mid-air, forming a steamy spiritual energy fog.

There were around thirty of those masked gray-clothed people. They had extremely swift movements.

Even though they were slightly shocked to see such a brawny snow leopard, they quickly resumed their operation.

The masked gray-clothed people closed in on Qiao Mu as they shot arrows from their bows nonstop.

These metal arrows blotted out the sky and rained down on Qiao Mu.

Following this, Qiao Mu's gaze turned cold, and she activated her defensive barrier without missing a beat. She produced numerous defensive talismans with a wave of her hand and lined them up in a circle around her.

The defensive talismans blocked this wave of metal arrows.

Several masked gray-clothed people had already flitted rapidly toward Qiao Mu with a huge net between them, attempting to capture Qiao Mu with it.

From the looks of it, this group of people were planning to capture her alive?

Qiao Mu lifted an eyebrow with a sneer.

Each of these masked gray-clothed people were spiritual cultivators level-four and above. Fan Gu, the assistant faction master of Clear Sky Faction, really had wagered much on this operation.

Moreover, weren't they taking action too quickly? Qiao Mu could not help but have doubts.

Could this Fan Gu have sent an informer to keep watch on her from the very beginning?

For instance, Fan Gu would immediately find out when she set foot in Shuntian Prefecture.

Subsequently, Fan Gu would be able to send Tan Fa into the entrance exam for Apex Academy that she was taking part in, planning to put a puppet curse on her and secretly cause her death.

Even though Fan Gu was not able to succeed in all of this, Qiao Mu was inexplicably in a bad mood when she thought of how there was a d*mn vermin plotting all day long to bite her.
