Ye Xiao spent a very long ti coming near the Hundred Mountain Range. The Cloudsmoke Forest was only two miles away from here, so Ye Xiao decided to take a look at this Hundred Mountain Range first, and then he will go to the Cloudsmoke Forest.
Ye Xiao started walking to enter into the Hundred Mountain Range. Wisps of cold wind blew through his hair, making him feel very comfortable.
His expression was extrely calm as he walked forward without stopping. As he walked toward the Hundred Mountain Range, he discovered that the road ahead had beco wider and wider, and a dense dark green forest gradually appeared.
Even though this was called Hundred Mountain Range and there are twenty mountains in this Hundred Mountain Range, but there is also a dense forest on each mountain. Because there are forests here, there are also beasts.
But of course, these forests are much smaller than the Cloudsmoke Forest.
This forest was extrely far-reaching and seed to be encompassed by the entire mountain range. The area was over ten miles in circumference and it seed that it was difficult to find anything within.
Ye Xiao curiously took his first stem in the forest of Hundred Mountain Range and continue to walk inside, step by step. The shadows of trees covered the sky and overlapped each other, making it impossible for even the sun and moon to shine in.
Not long after he stepped inside, he heard footsteps of many people from ahead of him causing him to prick up his ears in vigilance.
There were hundreds of people going to the Cloudsmoke Forest today and it is not surprising that so of these people entered into the Hundred Mountain Range to rest or to do sothing.
Very soon, as Ye Xiao walked forward, he was able to see the silhouettes of many people.
A group of people appeared in his line of sight. He stopped walking forward and hide behind a big and thick tree. There were so short shrubs connected to the root of this tree which helped him to hide his existence more thoroughly.
He parted the shrubs slightly with his hand and saw that this group of people was consisted of about twenty to thirty people, and each of them wore different clothes. All of them were also ard with swords and sabers. There were both n and won in this group, and the weakest of them was a martial artist at the Seventh Stage of Origin Core Realm. The strongest of them was a pair of middle-aged n and won. Their cultivation was sothing, Ye Xiao was unable to see through.
This group of people was talking sothing among themselves.
Ye Xiao thought that spying on soone else's conversation is not a good thing. Ye Xiao thought of taking a detour to enter deep into the Hundred Mountain Range and hunt so magical beast and increase his strength. Only after increasing his by a stage or two will he go to the Cloudsmoke Forest as it is very dangerous there at this ti. After all, many people are going inside the Cloudsmoke Forest so that they can search and obtain the treasure that is about to be born.
The majority of these peoples are much stronger than him. All these peoples are opponents of each other and they will surely kill each other so that there will be more chances for themselves in obtaining the treasure. And the place where the treasure is about to born will surely beco a battlefield where a bloody battle will take place after the birth of the treasure.
Because of this, at this ti, Ye Xiao wanted nothing more than to increase his strength. So that, there will be more chances for him to obtain the treasure and put up the fight with others.
It is going to be almost a month since he left the imperial city and went inside the Cloudsmoke Forest to increase his strength.
His strength did increase significantly but the goal that his master Grandmaster Wang gave him was to beco at least a Peak Origin Core Realm martial artist within four months. He was still far away from reaching this goal. He was still only a Second Stage of Origin Core Realm martial artist.
Much of his ti was wasted when he was unconscious.
Just as Ye Xiao was about to silently leave this place and take a detour to walk deep inside the Hundred Mountain Range, he heard sothing from the conversation of these people, that forced him to stop so that he can hear more of their conversation. Ye Xiao stopped and pricked his ears like a rabbit.
"Did you see, how those fools are going inside the Cloudsmoke Forest this early without knowing the ti of the birth of a treasure? They even don't know the location of that place where the treasure is about to born." One burly man among this group of people laughed and mocked all those peoples who were going inside the Cloudsmoke Forest.
This man was about 1.9 ters tall. His appearance was that of a sturdy man. He was actually a Fifth Stage of the Martial King Realm martial artist.
"Haha, you are right big brother. Anyway, it was our three families that planned to keep the location and timing of the birth of the treasure confidential and not to spread. They are going inside the Cloudsmoke Forest this early. They don't even know that the treasure is about to born after three days." Another young man laughed and said. His facial features were quite similar to that of the previous burly man.
He was also a young man who is in his early twenties. He was a 22 or 23 years old young man but his strength is not a bit weaker than the burly man. He was also a Fifth Stage of the Martial King Realm.
"Shut up." Suddenly a cold voice rang out. It was that middle-aged man whose strength was sothing that Ye Xiao was unable to see.
He looked at that young man and said coldly, "Zhang San, although we are currently inside the forest of Hundred Mountain Range, it does not an that no one will co here. You just unknowingly revealed the ti of the birth of the treasure. If there was anyone else there apart from us, He would have heard about this matter. And think about it, by any chance, if that person will reveal the timing of the birth of treasure to the public, what will happen. Our probability of obtaining the treasure would have been reduced by almost 50%."
"If that really is to happen, it will be a big loss for our family. Only because of increasing the probability of obtaining the treasure, our three families made the decision of keeping the ti and location of the birth of the treasure secret."
Hearing this, that young man known as Zhang San lowered his head and apologize to the middle-aged man, "Third Uncle, I am sorry. I really did not an to say out loud the timing of the birth of treasure. I will not do sothing like this again in the future."
The middle-aged man nodded his head and did not say anything after that. But the lady beside him smiled at Zhang San and said, "Don't worry Zhang San. It is ok. Don't mind your third uncle. He scolded you only for the future of our Zhang Family. You are a direct-line descendent of our Zhang Family so you have to rember this. No matter what happens, never ever reveal any secret that our family wants to keep confidential."
"I understand Second aunt. I will keep this in my mind and I will never do sothing like this again in the future." Zhang San nodded his head heavily toward the middle-aged lady.
That middle-aged lady smiled and stroked Zhang San's hair slowly. Then she said, "Including our Zhang Family, all the people from the three big families are currently inside the Hundred Mountain Range. We all are waiting for the correct ti to move forward and go inside the Cloudsmoke Forest."
"We will go to the Cloudsmoke Forest after two days. At that ti, I think almost half of these peoples will return back to Southwood City in disappointnt. Since they don't know, when the treasure will be born, they'll think that the rumour about the birth of the treasure is fake. This will greatly reduce the enthusiasm of these people. At that ti, we'll have less trouble to deal and our main focus will be on getting our hands on the treasure before the other two families."
"In these two days, we will not make our move. We will patiently wait here. Do whatever you want to do but don't make a loud noise and not attract the attention of any people toward the Hundred Mountain Range."
After hearing her, all the people of the Zhang Family said together, "We understood."
