As they were walking, Amon took out the Black Space Ring and observed it again. There was no problem for his mind to delve into the space within. But from the clan master's reaction, it was clear that he failed to look into it. He simply saw it as a normal decorative ring. Amon wondered why. He thought back to when he found the ring, it was empty then. He was also wondering at the time why Hei Gong didn't use this black space ring to store his possession.

After some thought, he decided to take the risk. He called Madam Lin and showed her the Black Space Ring. Madam Lin took it into her hand and inspected it.

p "It's a beautiful ring, where did you get it?" She asked.

"I buy it from a street vendor. The seller said it is a space ring as well, but I cannot access it. Can you?"

"A space ring?" Madam Lin seemed to concentrate, then she said. "You must have been cheated. You should test its ingenuity before you buy it. Where is this street vendor? Tell me, mother will punish him for you."

"Never mind, I buy it cheap anyway."

"I see. It's a beautiful ring regardless. If you have no use of it, how about giving it to mother?"

"I will be insulting myself if I give mother such a cheap ring. I will prepare a more fitting present for mother."

Madam Lin giggled. "It doesn't matter if the gift from my son is cheap or expensive. But I will be waiting for it," she said and handed the black ring back to Amon. Amon took it and stored it back on his necklace. It seemed that this black space ring was more than it seemed.

After returning to Madam Lin's housing complex, Amon did not immediately train the Endless Concealed Slash that he received from the clan master. He went to the Profound Treasure Market instead.

He had started learning the martial art of bow weapons that he got from Hei Gong's belongings, so he would like to focus on this art first. This martial art for bow had a name called Soul Searching Shot. He had studied its basics, but he would like to practice it after he got a proper crossbow.

He had missed the promised time to go back to Xin Lie's stall due to the assassination incident with Si An and San Guo. When he went to the stall, she was not there. He had returned a few times during this half-year time, but he never found her.

'Can I have been cheated? The bitch ran away after receiving my Aer stones?' Amon wondered. He grinned, 'heh. Here I am putting my vigilance against assassins and powerful opponents but end up getting cheated by a swindler. At least I still get one crossbow.'

He looked at the crossbow in his hand. Despite not being perfect, it was not bad either. Considering the craftsmanship, it should not have been made by a swindler. Otherwise, he would have been suspicious when he bought it.

After some thought, he looked at the stalls near the one where Xin Lie's one used to be. There were several. He then approached and asked them one by one.

One claimed to have no idea, one had shooed him away before he even asked. He had a hunch that one of them should know something about the woman. He thought that he would first use nice words to ask, if he got nothing, he would try taking out some Aer stones as an incentive. If that didn't work either, he would resort to violence. The last plan was rather risky, considering this territory was under White Cloud Sect's protection. He hoped he didn't have to go that far.

Luckily, he didn't. The third person told him what he wanted to know.

"That woman Xin Lie? I haven't seen her for weeks," the merchant said. "You have some important matter to be looking for her?"

"Yes, we have a business deal, but I missed our promised time to meet. I have brought my payment and I wish to find her to complete the deal."

"I see… Well, I do hear sometimes ago about where she lived. But you know, at my age, it is terribly difficult to remember things."

Amon secretly snickered. 'Whatever world, it's the same.' Amon brought out twenty Aer stones and placed them on his stall. "Will this help you in remembering?" He asked.

His face lit up upon seeing the Aer stones. "Oh, young master truly is generous! I remember now, I remember. Her house is in the woods outside the city, South West of White Cloud City. The White Cloud river, the largest river that goes through this White Cloud city, goes out and into these woods. I once heard her say that if you follow the river, you should find her house in those woods."

"That is a big help, thank you for the information," Amon said before leaving.

As he walked, he was pondering if he should go out to search for Xin Lie. It was still fine if he was in a public place. But once he was in an isolated area, it would be more troublesome if someone powerful came after him. The Wei clan had arranged a deathmatch with him, but it didn't mean that they would let an opportunity go if he was vulnerable in the open.

He decided to move around the city as he paid attention to his surroundings, sometimes making a sudden turn or running to check if someone was tailing him. After making sure that there was not, he then looked for a secluded place and put on a concealed cloak to hide his identity before heading out to the southwest part of the city.

On his way to the southwest part, he happened upon the White Cloud river. The part of the river he chanced upon was around fifty meters in width. He just followed the river afterward, since he would be following it after going out of the city. When he reached the outskirts of the city, the river was around thirty meters in width.

He came out of the suburban area and entered a more natural territory as he continued to follow the river. He could already see the woods that was mentioned by the merchant.

'Why does anyone choose to live in such a wild place?' He wondered. In his past life, it was not so weird. But here, there were spirit beasts that could easily take someone's life out here in the wild. Probably Xin Lie was a high-level cultivator that she was not afraid to live out there? But he didn't feel pressure from Xin Lie the last time they met. Probably because she was concealing it. It should not be possible in his past life, but after the incident with Si An, he knew that there was such a concealing art in this world.

When he was further away from the city, he didn't feel the need for his concealment cloak anymore. He took off the cumbersome clothing and stored it back in his space ring. He then sprinted along the river.

With his sprinting speed, he could cover the distance much quicker. Not long after, he was deep inside the woods as he continued to run alongside the river. There was still no human-made structure in sight.

Can the merchant be lying just to get a few of his Aer stones? Or can it be that Xin Lie was lying when the merchant heard about her house's location? Amon wondered. Such conjectures were meaningless, he could only make sure for himself. If the merchant was truly lying just for a few Aer stones, Amon would find him and teach him the lesson of such transgression.

Amon's ears picked up some faint sound as he was running. He slowed down his pace as a result. He paid more attention and decided to head over to the sound. The sound was more of something made by a human rather than an animal or a spirit beast.

As he approached, the sounds, or rather, voices, were getting more clear.

'No way…' Amon thought as he recognized the voices. But the voices were unmistakable.

Amon jumped onto the branch of a tree and then from there he leaped from one branch to another, taking the higher ground for observation. As he arrived at the place where the voices had originated, he found it to be truly as what the sounds had suggested.

'They are really doing it in the wild… Talk about adventurous fornication," Amon thought as he watched from above a naked man who was lying on his back in the bushes while a naked woman was riding him wildly on top. The two were moaning and groaning loudly as they enjoyed each other.

'Aren't they afraid if suddenly a spirit beast came nearby? Hm…? Don't tell me…' Amon jumped to another branch to get a clear view of the woman. He was only seeing her back at his original position. As he switched places, he could see her more clearly.

'It really is her,' Amon said in his mind. The naked woman who was passionately slamming her round ass repeatedly on the man's piece as her two huge breasts bounced wildly, was Xin Lie, the woman he had come to search for.

'Heh, here I thought something had happened that prevented her to give me my crossbow, only to find her happily…'

Amon didn't finish his thought as he saw something unexpected.

"Urgh…!!!" The man closed his eyes and groaned loudly as he ejaculated his seed inside Xin Lie, who at the time had her hand reached inside the side bushes and pulled out a long knife. Without pause, she stabbed the sharp knife right onto her lover's neck.

His groan was turned to choking as blood gushed out of his mouth. Xin Lie pulled the knife violently and blood spurted out of the wound on his neck.
