Mountain after mountain rose in succession, and as Shi Xiaole and his companions traveled on, they did not discover any ancient relics or places of serendipity. However, the Yellow-haired Monsters and Fire Stiffs began to increase in number.
What disturbed Shi Xiaole the most was that, later on, even the crippled blade puppets of the Blade Slaves Sect appeared!
"The Fire Stiff Palace was the first great terror in the history of the Martial World; the Blade Slaves Sect was the second. It is said that there is also a third unknown great terror—could it be these Yellow-haired Monsters?" (see Chapter 744)
Shi Xiaole couldn't help but rise to this speculation.
Otherwise, it was just too much of a coincidence.
