"Deception and backstabbing are the norm among evil cultivators, so don't bother putting on an act for my benefit." Old Man Luan clearly wasn't buying Ma Jiu’s display of subservience. His voice sounded grim and sinister as he continued, "Ma Jiu, I have one more important task for you before we enter the Return Ruins Valley."
"What task? Please, Senior Luan, speak freely." Ma Jiu lowered his head slightly, keeping his posture humble.
Old Man Luan’s voice carried a chilling resentment. "Over six months ago, I was carelessly outmaneuvered by a Spirit Severing junior in Yuan Continent. He abducted my female furnace, whom I had painstakingly cultivated as a Yin-Yin Body. Her name is Que Ning, and she was once a disciple of the Canglang Sect in Zu Continent. As for that Spirit Severing brat, I don't yet know his origins. Before the Return Ruins Valley reappears, you must find Que Ning for me. If you can kill that brat while you’re at it, even better."
