Chương 436: Chapter 436 : Off To The Desert (1)

"Did you all hear what happened at Jiangnan?" A frequent visitor to the noodle shop said as soon as he took his seat among his friends.

Behind their table, the two men huddled in dark traveling cloaks went stiff in an instant.

"No, what happened?" His friend asked while munching a mouthful of meat dumplings.

"It is the funniest thing ever," the first man said with a giggle. "Apparently, the leader of the greatest cultivation sect in Jiangnan was murdered, and all the sects gathered to vanquish the murderer one morning. It turned out that the murderer escaped the night before with someone from the sects!"

The table broke into a cacophony of laughter. They slapped their hands against the table surface loudly while wiping tears from the ends of their eyes.

"And... And... They all gathered at that empty hill and went... 'Now what?'"

"Hahahahahahaha~!!!"

The louder the men laughed, the more uncomfortable one of the two cloaked men became.
