Fang Ximu had always been looking for an opportunity to get close to Wang Yun. It had nothing to do with romance; rather, she was desperate to confirm whether Wang Yun had inherited Qi Xiu's supreme techniques. The depletion of spiritual energy within her body had led her to perceive the natural flow of heaven and earth's spiritual Qi through cultivation. While Qi Xiu's peerless technique, the Gourmet Art, was an evil cultivation method capable of draining the spiritual energy of others, it seemed it could be used to resolve the core issue of her own spiritual energy loss.
The sudden disappearance of Tiger General left Pei Zhonghao feeling even more bereft of capable subordinates. Although the entire Beast Sect had over ten thousand disciples, there wasn't a single one he felt he could entrust with important tasks with peace of mind.
