He looked around but didn’t find any trace of Jiang Xiaobai, making him so furious that his body trembled.
The frivolous man almost excavated the entire area but still failed to find Jiang Xiaobai, which made him so angry that he impulsively chased in a random direction.
Yet as soon as he left, that aura appeared again.
This time he darted towards the place where Jiang Xiaobai had emerged at full speed, but by then, Jiang Xiaobai had already escaped using his concealment technique and hid his aura.
Discovering him would be extraordinary.
Unable to find Jiang Xiaobai, the frivolous man began to go insane. He clutched his hair tightly, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he roared furiously.
“Impossible! Impossible!”
“He’s nothing more than a mortal!”
Despite spending more time searching without any success, the frivolous man turned completely mad. However, at this moment, he suddenly had an idea and you could see the murderous intent in his eyes.
He stopped searching and turned to leave.
Indeed, within two seconds of his departure, Jiang Xiaobai’s aura appeared somewhere else.
Yet, when he arrived at that place, there was again no trace of Jiang Xiaobai.
The frivolous man was furious, realizing that that damn Jiang Xiaobai was toying with him!
“You bastard! If I catch you, I’ll definitely flay your skin alive!”
“I’ll make your soul suffer for eternity!”
The frivolous man raged on, but to no effect, as Jiang Xiaobai simply ignored him.
At this point, Jiang Xiaobai was on the other side of the wall behind the frivolous man, separated only by a wall.
Thanks to the system-awarded concealment ability, Jiang Xiaobai was virtually invisible.
Jiang Xiaobai found himself deeply amused by the thrilling edge of danger.
“You want to kill me, let me first mess with your mind—a little payback.” Jiang Xiaobai sneered to himself.
In this manner, Jiang Xiaobai kept on toying with that man for an entire hour.
Over this period, the frivolous man realized that Jiang Xiaobai was just playing with him. He tried various methods to catch Jiang Xiaobai off guard.
Surprisingly, Jiang Xiaobai had a narrow escape on a few occasions.
He underestimated the frivolous man who, on several occasions, almost discovered him and even once saw Jiang Xiaobai.
Fortunately, Jiang Xiaobai had just acquired the concealment technique, and by quickly activating it, disappeared into the trees. This enraged the frivolous man, who shattered a peach tree with one slap.
Jiang Xiaobai found this experience quite thrilling and was addicted to it.
However, later on, the frivolous man seemed tired, both physically and mentally, like an old ox after ploughing the field.
Indeed, no field remains unbroken, only oxen die of overwork!
Jiang Xiaobai toyed with him a few more times after that, but the other party didn’t react at all.
Then, Jiang Xiaobai, finding the situation pointless, activated his aura concealment and stayed close behind the frivolous man.
In his spare time, he even managed to buy a variety of grilled meats. As he relished the juicy taste, he continued to pursue the man.
The frivolous man was utterly infuriated.
His reason for ignoring Jiang Xiaobai was because he had been secretly preparing a big move.
Oh boy, Jiang Xiaobai simply disappeared, refusing to play this game anymore!
It was a truly embarrassing situation, like having soiled one’s pants.
“Ah, damn it!”
The fatigued frivolous man arrived at the hidden entrance of a cave dwelling outside Tianyuan City.
He swore that he had never hated someone so much in his life.
The frivolous man wasn’t stupid. A mere mortal like Jiang Xiaobai had made a fool of him, which meant there was something fishy.
And the fact that Ao Yan was reluctant to kill Jiang Xiaobai before was also very revealing.
“That mortal is tricky!”
While thinking this, the frivolous man entered the cave dwelling. Jiang Xiaobai also wanted to follow, but noticed that there were formation methods around the cave dwelling.
Since he didn’t know how to handle formation methods, he dared not act recklessly.
However, Jiang Xiaobai remembered this place. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly noticed a figure appearing there.
He immediately concealed himself within a big tree using the concealment technique. He then saw the figure sneaking over to a corner of the cave dwelling.
Jiang Xiaobai, hiding in the darkness, narrowed his eyes to scrutinize this figure, feeling that he had seen it somewhere before.
Upon closer examination, it turned out to be Ao Cheng!
“What the hell is he doing here?”
Moreover, with such sneaky movements, Ao Cheng seemed to be up to no good.
Having thought this, Jiang Xiaobai squinted his eyes, ready to watch.
Then he saw Ao Cheng, clad in black night clothes, carefully approach the corner of the mansion and look around before taking out a compass.
Soon after, Jiang Xiaobai noticed a hole in the formation surrounding the mansion, and nobody in the mansion seemed alarmed.
“What a treasure.”
Jiang Xiaobai found the compass significantly better than his current equipment—it seemed to be an essential artifact for traveling.
Then Ao Cheng went through the break in the formation and got into the mansion successfully.
Jiang Xiaobai sneaked over to the edge of the formation break. He was contemplating whether or not to enter.
If he went in rashly and got trapped when the duration of his aura concealment ended, he would undoubtedly die.
“Oh well, I must go in. I need to figure out the true identity of that person who tried to kill me without a proper reason.”
Jiang Xiaobai murmured to himself, then directly slipped into the mansion through the hole.
The environment inside the dwelling was extremely alluring. Jiang Xiaobai’s aura was hidden while he transformed into an inconspicuous mosquito using the Earth Fiend 72 Changes.
Experiencing the change in his view point for the first time, Jiang Xiaobai found it fascinating to suddenly appear as tiny as a mosquito.
Buzz, buzz, buzz-
Slipping past the pond and the stone pavilion at the entrance of the dwelling, he made it to the backyard and saw Ao Cheng stealthily squatting outside a room.
Squeak!
Just at that moment, the room door was pushed open, and the frivolous man walked out, coming face-to-face with a bewildered Ao Cheng.
It was clear that Ao Cheng was not experienced at this kind of thing and had gotten caught red-handed.
The situation was deeply awkward.
“Die!”
Ao Cheng didn’t hesitate to attack first upon being exposed.
He brandished a ferocious-looking wolf’s tooth hammer and lunged for the frivolous man’s forehead.
The frivolous man was furious, as he hadn’t expected anyone to be able to infiltrate his mansion and attack him!
“Bastards! This is absolutely outrageous!”
The frivolous man roared in anger and grief.
He held a fine sword in his hand and swung it in front of him.
Clang!
The shrill sound of metal collision rang out as the two men engaged in a fierce battle, fighting tooth and nail.
Jiang Xiaobai, transformed into a mosquito, hid on the roof, quietly observing.
After watching for a while, he found the brawl between the two men boring because they were just trading blows without any interesting tactics. He then flew into the room.
He saw garments placed on a cupboard, with a grey ancient character written on the chest portion of the clothing.
“Oh boy, so he’s from the ancient tribe!”
