Sword Emperor

Sun Bing couldn't help but smile when he saw Yang Tao's expression. He admitted that Yang Tao's acting skills were quite good. If not, he wouldn't have been fooled yesterday. However, too many things seemed to have happened today, causing him to expose his flaws. The pair of eyes that Sun Bing noticed the most were still his eyes.    

    

Seeing Sun Bing's expression, Yang Tao could not help but lower his head guiltily. Now, he did not say any address, as if he had resigned himself to his fate. He walked in a direction, paused for a moment, and then slowly called out, "Then I'll take you to the place where the Genuine Essence Fruit Tree was found. I hope you can keep your promise at that time."    

    

Seeing the other party's expression, Sun Bing nodded secretly. He was sure that this would be the real place. This was because Sun Bing could see the pain in Yang Tao's eyes.    

    

One should know that it didn't matter to the three major powers of Tianwu City or those ordinary rogue cultivators. The Genuine Essence Fruit was a very precious item. If they were to lose it recklessly... It was impossible for them to have no expression on their faces. However, there was only fear on Yang Tao's face just now. It was impossible to see the slightest bit of pain on his face. In the end, Sun Bing even discovered... A cunning look flashed across the depths of his eyes.    

    

It was because of this that Sun Bing was sure that the other party wasn't telling the truth. However, this was also human nature. After all, the Genuine Essence Fruit Forest was a huge fortune that no one could part with.    

    

Now that the other party had accepted his fate, Sun Bing didn't say anything. He just followed behind the other party slowly, neither too far nor too close. Even if there was any danger, he would be able to discover it immediately.    

    

Because he knew that no matter how precious the Genuine Essence Fruit was, the most precious thing was still his own life. He wouldn't risk his own life.    

    

Seeing Sun Bing's action, Yang Tao, who was walking in front, couldn't help but curse in his heart, "What a cunning little fox, why didn't you notice it yesterday?"    

    

In fact, even now, his life was no longer in his hands. Yang Tao still wanted to play some tricks in his heart. No matter what, he was still a person near the Tianwu City, so he was quite familiar with the surrounding environment.    

    

He had a clear understanding of the outer region of the Hengduan Mountains, such as which place was a dangerous place and where there was a powerful Demonic Beast. If Sun Bing was very close to him, he would be able to bring Sun Bing to these places and escape with his rich experience.    

    

Especially when faced with the Demonic Beast, it would be less beneficial to him. Because the Demonic Beast was sensitive to danger, after meeting a cultivator... The first to attack was the creature that posed the greatest threat to it. If Sun Bing and Yang Tao were to walk together... Obviously, Yang Tao would be ignored by the Demonic Beast and attack Sun Bing. At this moment, he could easily escape.    

    

Unfortunately, Sun Bing was now 30 meters away from him, although it sounded like a long distance. However, Yang Tao knew in his heart that there was no way he could escape from Sun Bing's pursuit at such a short distance. If he met the Demonic Beast, he wouldn't even need Sun Bing's help. The opponent would kill him first, so he could only dispel the thought of harming the opponent. Otherwise, if he didn't kill Sun Bing, he would be dead instead.    

    

Unknowingly, they had been walking for several hours. Yang Tao's speed could be said to be quite slow. In his mind, he was thinking that Sun Bing could bring him along with him. This way, he could secretly plan some things. However, Sun Bing was neither in a hurry nor in a hurry, as if he wasn't in a hurry at all.    

    

This made Yang Tao curse in his heart, don't you want good things? He was actually not in a hurry at all.    

    

In fact, Yang Tao had wronged Sun Bing. In fact, even at this moment, Sun Bing still had a trace of vigilance in his heart. It was impossible for him to get close to his enemy.    

    

In an instant, Yang Tao's final plan had completely failed. He could only helplessly walk in front of him. Not long after that, he actually ran into an incomparably huge tree.    

    

Even Sun Bing, who had passed through the entire Hengduan Mountains, couldn't help but be shocked when he saw this huge tree. This was because this tree was really too big. It required dozens of people to hug it, and the canopy was so huge that it covered a huge area. It was truly shocking.    

    

"It seems like this direction isn't wrong." At this moment, Sun Bing couldn't help but nod his head lightly, because this was indeed the direction to the north, which was thirty miles away. Even this huge tree did exist. However, Yang Tao's next movement had obviously changed. He didn't even walk to the west. Instead, he walked towards the east.    

    

"Didn't you say you were going to the west?" Sun Bing couldn't help but tease.    

    

Hearing this, Yang Tao did not even dare to look back. He stammered and then reluctantly answered, "This, this, I remembered it wrong. I only remembered it clearly when I saw this tree."    

    

Sun Bing did not say it out loud. After all, the best lie in the world was 90% truth. Yang Tao clearly knew about a single lie. The first half was the truth, and the last part was a lie. But it just so happened that the last part was the complete opposite. If Sun Bing really listened to the other party's words, it would be impossible for him to find the Genuine Essence Fruit Tree.    

    

What followed was another silent journey, because Yang Tao had already lost all hope. He didn't dare to play any tricks. About an hour later, he saw a mountain wall that was densely covered with vines. It seemed like no one had come here for a long time.    

    

Here. Actually, Sun Bing was quite confused. Could it be that the Genuine Essence Fruit Tree grew on this flat mountain wall in front of him?    

    

While Sun Bing was confused, he saw Yang Tao grab a vine and pull it hard to see if it was loosening. After confirming that there was no mistake, he slowly opened his mouth. "The destination we are heading to is above us. We need to rely on vines to climb up next."    

    

After saying that, he ignored Sun Bing and continued climbing upwards.    

    

Regarding this, Sun Bing did not directly listen to his reply. He saw that Yang Tao had already climbed for a long distance, and there was almost no sign of him anymore. Immediately, luck began to flow within the Dantian. Boundless Genuine Essence flowed through his meridians at a rapid speed. As if he was weightless, he gently tapped on the Dantian. After that, his entire body immediately leapt up. Even though it was a flat mountain wall... * Hong Long...... *    

    

With just a few gentle steps, he had easily climbed up to the peak that ordinary people couldn't even hope to reach.    

    

At this moment, Yang Tao was standing at the mouth of a cave on the mountain wall, waiting for him. Without any hesitation, he immediately rushed over with his Qi. With the speed of the Floating Light, he arrived at Yang Tao's side in a blink of an eye.    

    

Looking at the figure beside him, Yang Tao couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. He didn't expect to see this person just now. It wasn't Sun Bing's true strength yet, and the footwork technique was a lot stronger than before. He had actually become the enemy of such a person.    

    

Without saying anything, he could only silently rush into the cave.    

    

Out of caution, Sun Bing didn't enter the cave directly. Instead, he observed from the side and discovered that... The cave was not as dark as he had imagined. With the five senses of a cultivator, which far exceeded that of an ordinary person, besides, the cave was quite dry. If he were to cultivate bitterly in the wild, it would be a pretty good place for him to go into seclusion.    

    

Seeing that the figure had already walked far away, he quickly rushed over.    

    

Not long after, they discovered that there was a clear light at the end of the cave from afar. Their footsteps could not help but become much faster. After walking for dozens of steps, they suddenly saw the light.    

    

A huge valley appeared in front of Sun Bing. At this moment, Yang Tao couldn't help but smile bitterly. "Now that we have reached our destination, you should believe us, right?"
