Chapter 686

A Passing Acquaintance
Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

He remembered that not long after Ling Xiao became an up and coming star in the Ten Gods he and You XiaoMo arrived in the TongTian Continent, and this caused a great commotion at that time.

Dao Yun’s master, the Thief God, was one of the Ten Gods and he was also rumored to be the number two expert. This old man always came and left without a trace for his whole life and was only interested in precious things. At that time, Ling Xiao wanted to use him to find the five types of Elemental Essences. Unfortunately, they were separated from Dao Yun and had never kept in contact again.

Nowadays, the Thief God was no longer an expert belonging to the Ten Gods. Having broken through the pinnacle of the Divine Realm, he had risen above the top experts in the TongTian Continent. However, even being a one star Sacred Realm practitioner did not completely guarantee his safety in these turbulent times.

Tian Dao had said before that there was a man clothed in black who was very interested in the Five Blessing Spirit Eye. That man was probably the Thief God.

You XiaoMo also understood that the man in black they discovered in the ShuiXi Tribe was Dao Yun’s shifu. At that time, he had no chance to get the Five Blessing Spirit Eye, so he chased You XiaoMo to the Ghost Tomb Mountain Range in Xi Jing. But knowing sequence of events did not mean that he would let the Thief God off. He would surely ask the Thief God to pay with his life if something happened to the Giant Roc.

“Your contracted demon beast is all right.” Dao Yun discovered the chillness in You XiaoMo’s eyes and hastened to explain.

You XiaoMo turned back and looked at the youth from his former days. He recalled when he had just arrived at the TongTian Continent and when he saw Dao Yun at the Black Spider auction, and suddenly found that it was a thing that was from the distant past.

“Where is the Giant Roc then?”

Dao Yun’s feelings were more profound than his. He still remembered that You XiaoMo looked very young and tender when he met him for the first time, and his cultivation was low at that time. However, he was now a first-rate transcendent level mage in the TongTian Continent. He had heard all kinds of rumors over the years and Dao Yun’s feelings were very complicated.

“He was saved by someone.” Dao Yun sorted out the complex thoughts in his mind a little before he explained, “We had planned to lock him up that day, but unexpectedly another man in black interrupted us midway. He saved your contracted demon beast and we never saw them again.”

“Another man in black?” You XiaoMo frowned, why were there so many people in black?!

Dao Yun nodded, “You should have a vague impression of him. He was also one of the men in black who had snuck into the ShuiXi Tribe. His goal is also the Five Blessing Spirit Eye.”

You XiaoMo’s eyebrows creased into a ‘川’ character.

That was to say, that man in black may also threaten him with the Giant Roc?

If he had known earlier, he would not have given them the first move at that time. In the end, each and every one of them all targeted his contracted demon beasts. The Five Blessing Spirit Eye would probably have been stolen a long time ago if there were a few more. However, he did not expect that the Giant Roc would be so careless. This definitely deserved punishment.

Dao Yun looked at his expression and hesitantly asked, “Fellow Brother You, can you spare my shifu?”

You XiaoMo raised his head and his eyes swept over the slightly unwilling expression on the Thief God’s face. He had returned to his original appearance, which was an aged face with slightly wrinkled skin, but with a rather sensual face. He would look just like a old rouge if it was not for the melancholy on his face.
