Chapter 559: Chapter 396: The Same Black Heart, Jiang Hui’s Bewilderment and Thoughts_2
Following this, two figures hurriedly emerged from the fog.
One male and one female.
More accurately, one large and one small.
The leader was a middle-aged man in a green shirt and wearing a tiger skin cap. He appeared to be about 40 years old, but his actual age was incalculable.
He carried a square wooden box on his back, about half his size, similar to a book box. His expression was dull, his eyes lifeless, staring straight ahead without batting an eyelid. His facial expression, as well as his attire, were extremely unconventional.
The other person was a young woman with a charming smile and starry eyes, her gaze was both pitying and shy.
She was dressed in a purple dress. The large dress swayed with the wind, her figure was slender, and her skin was as smooth as cream.
The purple dress was rather large, falling to the woman’s shins, but in many places it appeared to be deliberately or unintentionally loosely fit. Glimpses of her white skin mixed with a bit of blush could be seen through the gaps in the dress, provoking imagination.
The woman appeared to be around fifteen or sixteen years old. Although she was young, she had unparalleled beauty. Even before fully blooming, she already possessed a charm capable of causing the downfall of a nation, causing even Jiang Hui to take a few extra glances.
Of course, he did not harbor any ulterior intentions.
It was purely an unconscious action.
With his current calmness, physical appearance alone could hardly stir his emotions.
Both the man and woman weren’t weak either, the man had reached the Completion stage, and the young woman, despite her tender age, had already reached the Divine Realm.
Nevertheless, both the young girl and the man remained within a tolerable range of strength.
It seemed that, even in the Alien Territory, Eternal Beings or Immortals were not common and remained rare.
However, this rarity was naturally different from the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.
In the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, Eternal Beings have become creatures of legend, and the Rule has shattered. The land is no longer able to spawn them spontaneously. If one wishes to reach Immortality, they can only venture into the Immortal Domain.
In the Alien Territory, only by possessing passable talent and dedication to training daily, could one eventually attain the position of Immortality.
“Is this spider yours?” Jiang Hui looked at the man and woman, but his gaze eventually stayed on the young woman.
“We are from the nearby Dominion Beast Sect. This man is my father, an elder of the Dominion Beast Sect Gate. That three-headed golden spider is a pet he has been nurturing. He takes great care of it daily. We didn’t expect it to sneak out when my father wasn’t watching, even disturbing you. It’s truly despicable. Once we return, we will definitely guard it more carefully to ensure that it does not escape again!”
The fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl spoke eloquently, not at all timid, and provided a reasonable explanation. If one did not know the truth, they might actually believe her.
But Jiang Hui was already an old hand at this, and even if the girl before him had unparalleled beauty, he would not be dismissed with a few words, even if she was fully grown.
This woman could deceive others, but not him.
With Five Senses fully activated, Jiang Hui could clearly sense everything before him.
The man beside the girl, who was dressed strangely, did not show any sign of life. Keep in mind, whether a cultivator or an ordinary person, as long as they are alive, signs of life will be present.
In other words, the man wasn’t a living creature, but possibly a puppet. The craftsmanship was extremely ingenious and lifelike, even the speech and demeanor were almost perfect, making it hard to notice. Even with his Divine Sense, Jiang Hui could not detect anything.
But the young girl claimed him to be her father, making the situation quite contradictory.
However, Jiang Hui didn’t bother with this contradiction and didn’t expose her either.
Because this couldn’t prove that she was lying. After all, on the journey of life, one cannot possibly reveal everything to a stranger. That would be the same as being a fool.
Additionally, upon seeing the man and woman, the three-headed golden spider immediately showed excitement, obviously familiar with them.
“This three-headed golden spider has disturbed me; this is not something you can dismiss with a few words!”
With a fluctuating gaze, Jiang Hui’s aura surged like a True Immortal.
“Well, I just overheard that you were asking about this place. I have a map here; it covers several nearby areas and is quite detailed. Can I offer it to you?”
The young woman pursed her lips, fearing that she would upset Jiang Hui, she hastily made her proposal in a somewhat playful manner.
The sequence of her actions would undoubtedly make a person’s heart flutter if they were not firmly resolved or overly lustful.
“Hold your tricks, otherwise I will kill you… Moreover, this three-headed golden spider is worthy of the title Three-headed King, are you compensating with just this?”
Jiang Hui’s tone was deliberately a bit impatient, his eyes slightly narrowed.
“Sir, there are also two Divine Medicines here. Although they are not too rare, they are indeed hard to come by. They are good stuff!”
The young woman gritted her teeth and eventually took out two good-quality Treasure medicinal plants.
Jiang Hui originally planned to coerce more out of them, but seeing the young woman’s behavior, it seemed she was already giving everything she had. So, pretending to deliberate, he eventually nodded.
The man and woman immediately thanked him and hastily fled to a place, the three-headed golden spider quickly followed them.
