Chapter 26: Shen Zhui, you really fell for it!

"Got it." Zi Xuan pouted. "If you're not afraid of bad luck, what am I worrying about?"

Seeing her agreement, Shen Zhui smiled and patted Zi Xuan's shoulder. "I'll be heading to the Blood Demon battlefield soon. The five thousand men under me will be re-deployed to defend the military city in the Dark Forest. Are you staying in White Cloud Peak or going to the Dark Forest?"

"This quickly?" Zi Xuan was taken aback. "Did you not say you'd go once you reach the Spirit Bridge Realm?"

"There's no time." Shen Zhui said solemnly. "While the results of cultivation in White Cloud Peak are good, the city of Ten Thousand Peaks is far too safe. It can't possibly compare with the challenges that come from battling life and death."

"Moreover, I've reached a bottleneck now. Unless I can get the essence blood of a Divine Passage Realm Ferocious Beast, it will be tough to make any breakthrough."

Zi Xuan nodded. She was now aware of the feud between Shen Zhui and Li Chengfeng.
