Treasure identifying Golden Finger

The young assassin stood on the tree with a blank expression on his face. He stared in the direction of the Cultivation College for a long time before he looked down at the middle-aged assassin, who was sitting under the tree and preparing to fire a second blast.    

    

"Brother Lei, there's no need to do anything. Faang Cheng has already set up a barrier around the Spirit Cultivation Academy. Your lightning... won't be able to penetrate through it."    

    

The young assassin said helplessly.    

    

"Hmm?"    

    

The middle-aged assassin was slightly taken aback before raising his head to look at the young assassin on the tree.    

    

"You..."    

    

Before he finished his words, he felt something wrong. He stood up and waved to the young man on the tree.    

    

"Let's go. We have to leave this place as soon as possible."    

    

With that, he took the lead and ran into the depths of the forest.    

    

The young assassin was apparently shocked by what he did, but luckily, he was fast enough. He knew that there must be a reason why the middle-aged man would do such a thing, so he didn't ask any more questions. He just moved right away and started to chase after the middle-aged man.    

    

Sure enough, they had only run a few steps when they heard extremely fast footsteps coming from behind them, and there were even traces of Spirit Power mixed in the footsteps.    

    

"Quick, let's go!"    

    

The middle-aged assassin suddenly felt that something was wrong, and his speed suddenly increased.    

    

The young assassin didn't know what was going on. When he heard the middle-aged man's voice change, he knew it wasn't that simple. He followed the middle-aged man and ran faster and faster.    

    

"Do you really think you can outrun me?"    

    

Faang Cheng's lazy voice sounded from above them. The middle-aged assassin suddenly stopped in his tracks and raised his head to look in front of him. He saw Faang Cheng standing on a big tree not far away from him, leaning against a branch with his arms crossed as he looked at him and the young assassin. There was a faint smile on his face, and the ridicule and disdain on his face was obvious.    

    

"You... how could you be ahead of us?"    

    

The middle-aged assassin immediately stopped in his tracks and did not take another step forward. It was as if he would be safer if he stayed further away from Faang Cheng.    

    

The young assassin behind him also stopped in his tracks. He stood behind the middle-aged assassin and stared at Faang Cheng warily.    

    

"You... Why are you stopping us?"    

    

The young assassin stuttered as he asked.    

    

"No way. You don't even dare to admit what you did and you want to run away? How could there be such a logic? Besides, I've already made it very clear to you all that if you attack the Spirit Cultivation Academy again, the consequences will not be something you can decide. I've tried to persuade you, but you won't listen. What can I do?"    

    

Faang Cheng said as he jumped down from the tall tree and landed right in front of the two assassins, blocking their way out.    

    

"As we said, if you keep that brat here, we will attack the Spirit Cultivation Academy once again. You didn't listen to our advice and chose to protect that brat. So it's reasonable for us to attack!"    

    

The middle-aged assassin argued with a straight face. However, he was actually thinking about how he could safely escape from Faang Cheng's hands.    

    

"If you say so, there's nothing wrong with it. So you mean we won't give in to each other. Whoever is stronger will win. After all... We won't give in to each other, right?"    

    

The corners of Faang Cheng's mouth curled up as he took a few steps forward and stared straight at the middle-aged assassin.    

    

"I've already said that I won't let anyone from the Spirit Cultivation Academy off the hook. Since you didn't listen to me, then... I can only do as I say!"    

    

With that, Faang Cheng attacked the two assassins without any hesitation.    

    

At this moment, the middle-aged assassin suddenly turned around and grabbed the young assassin behind him with both of his hands. Then, he grabbed the young assassin and pushed him towards Faang Cheng. At the same time, he also used the Spirit Power Shackles to bind the young assassin to Faang Cheng. Before the two of them could react, the middle-aged assassin flashed away and disappeared into the forest.    

    

"F * ck..."    

    

The young assassin was stunned for a moment before he realized that the middle-aged assassin had used him as a shield and a stepping stone to block Faang Cheng's path. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Brother Lei ran away.    

    

"This partner of yours is a bit unreliable!"    

    

Faang Cheng was also stunned by the actions of the middle-aged assassin. However, he immediately reacted and said to the young assassin in front of him with a helpless smile.    

    

"I... I didn't know he was such a coward! He's already so old, yet he's still inferior to a brat like me. Trash!"    

    

The young assassin was obviously furious. While struggling with the shackles of the Spiritual Power, he cursed in the direction where the middle-aged assassin left.    

    

"Don't worry. When I catch him, you can scold him as you please."    

    

Faang Cheng smiled and easily undid the Spirit Power shackles on his body. Using the Spirit Power shackles only on the young assassin, he locked him in place and prevented him from moving. Then, Faang Cheng slowly tidied up his clothes and chased after the middle-aged assassin.    

    

Only the young assassin was left standing on the spot with a resentful expression. He wanted to escape, yet he also wanted to catch the middle-aged assassin, Brother Lei, and beat him up.    

    

Faang Cheng chased after the middle-aged assassin. Due to the delay, the middle-aged assassin had already disappeared without a trace. Furthermore, the other party was smart enough to conceal his Spiritual Power, not leaving a single trace behind in the entire forest.    

    

However, he had underestimated Faang Cheng's abilities. Even though he had concealed his Spirit Power and did not leave any traces behind in the forest, he did not know that all the large and small creatures in the forest were nothing more than children in front of Faang Cheng. With a single glance from Faang Cheng, they would tell him everything they saw in the forest.    

    

Thus, Faang Cheng was currently standing in front of a large tree and looking at a small green snake on the tree in front of him. The little green snake stuck out its tongue and obediently raised its triangular head, nodding three times in one direction. It was obvious that it was giving Faang Cheng a tip-off.    

    

"Thank you!"    

    

Faang Cheng smiled faintly and continued to chase in that direction.    

    

Along the way, Faang Cheng asked a few small creatures such as rats, goats, and even a thousand-year-old white fox. After asking a few questions, he was more or less able to determine the middle-aged assassin's escape route. After thanking the small creatures politely, Faang Cheng chased after him in one breath.    

    

If he wanted to catch them, it was only a matter of time.
