"Brother Ye, what do we do now? I mean these corpses...?" Li Yun asked to Ye Xiao what to do while looking at the three dried up corpses with pity.
These guys came here to rob them. They even tried to kill Ye Xiao, Li Yun and the other four but got killed themselves instead.
"I think we should leave from here." Just as Li Yun asked, instead of Ye Xiao, one of his companion answered.
Ye Xiao also looked around him and said, "I also think that currently, leaving this place is a right choice. we just created too much of a commotion while fighting with these guys. It will definitely attract other participants. Let's leave this place otherwise if we again encounter another group of participants then it will be very difficult to leave safely from this place."
After saying this Ye Xiao and Li Yun's group hurriedly leaved that place and arrived at a place surrounded by many long and short trees.
After arriving there, as if Ye Xiao remembered something. He looked at Li Yun.
Li Yun, who was still very weak because of the heavy injuries suddenly felt a chill running down on his back. He turned around only to find Ye Xiao looking at him. He got confused and confusingly looked back to Ye Xiao but Ye Xiao continued to stare at him.
Suddenly Li also understood why Ye Xiao was looking at him like this so Li Yun smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Ye, don't worry, I'll tell you everything but before that let's find a safe place. Although this place is surrounded by many trees but it is still not safe here."
Ye Xiao thought for a while and then nodded his head. He also understood that this place was not safe for them right now as they were already badly injured. They also needed to heal themselves as well as recover the spirit energy they loosed while battling with the pair of Golden Giant Apes.
They all again started to move and some time later, they found a small hill. There was a little cave in it. They took shelter in it for the time being and began to rest. They were already very tired and also because of there injuries, they loosed too much blood. So, they took out some ordinary healing pills and ate it. Some time later, as there injuries began to heal, they also felt some comfort and fell asleep.
When Li Yun saw his companions sleeping, he let out a sigh of relief and then he turned around for Ye Xiao and said, "So, brother Ye, tell me what do you want know?"
"Everything, everything related to the Fifth Elder Ye Fan of the Silver Moon Sect and me." Ye Xiao said deeply while looking at him.
"Everything, umm!" Li Yun repeated Ye Xiao's word and then took a long breath.
"Yes, everything." Ye Xiao nodded his head.
"Well, if I were to say the truth then....in reality, you are not related to anything in this story. You are just a variable here that that needs to be eliminated."
"What, what are you trying to say? Say it clearly." Ye Xiao didn't understand what Li Yun was trying to say.
"Well, let me start with the Fifth Elder Ye Fan. I think you already know this that he died when he went out from the Silver Moon Sect for completing some kind mission. Right?"
"Yes."
"In reality, he went out, not for completing any kind of mission but to find a treasure."
"A treasure?"
Ye Xiao was stunned after listening what Li Yun said. He still remembered clearly, when Fifth Elder Ye Fan was going out, he told him that he was going out because of a mission and he will come back soon. But after he went out, he never came back.
"Yes, a treasure. Um, let me ask you a question. Have you ever heard of a Fire Soul?" Li Yun again asked.
"A Fire Soul?"
Ye Xiao was again stunned when he heard the name 'Fire Soul'. According to what he knew, only some people with the highest status in the entire country should know about the existence of Fire Soul. No ordinary people should have the knowledge about Fire Soul.
But now, here, everything he knew proved to be wrong. After hearing what Li Yun said, he understood that not only Li Yun, but many elders of the Black Blade Sect and the Silver Moon Sect knew about the existence of Fire Soul.
When Li Yun saw the stunned face of Ye Xiao, he thought that Ye Xiao didn't know anything about Fire Soul so he began to explain Ye Xiao about Fire Soul.
"Fire Soul is a treasure that helps one to increase the power of fire type attacks and it even let one to attack with fire even if one didn't cultivated a fire type martial arts skill. Not only this, it even helps in alchemy and because of this many alchemist dreams to get their hands on it no matter the price they have to pay."
"What type of Fire Soul was it which the Fifth Elder Ye Fan went to get?" Ye Xiao asked to Li Yun.
"What type of Fire Soul? What do you mean?" Li Yun was puzzled.
When Ye Xiao saw the puzzled expression on Li Yun's face, he understood that Li Yun does not have the complete knowledge of Fire Soul. So he said, "Leave it and continue what you were telling before."
Li Yun looked at him questioningly but didn't said anything. He wanted to ask something but somehow got over it and didn't ask.
"So, Fire Soul was that treasure which the Fifth Elder Ye Fan went to obtain. He wanted to obtain this Fire Soul for you." Li Yun again exploded a bomb on Ye Xiao.
"For me?" Again, Ye Xiao was stunned and taken back to the day when the Fifth Elder Ye Fan was about to go out in order to complete some mission.
