Chapter 10

The clear and prolonged whistle indicated that the whistler was clearly a powerful expert. In response to this clear whistle, several other whistles echoed from other places, clearly showing that these people were all part of the same group.

Hearing these whistles, Zhang Ye immediately realized a very serious problem: "This bearded middle-aged man is covered in wounds, clearly the result of being surrounded and attacked. The place where I am is rarely visited by people, and now so many people have suddenly appeared. These people must be looking for this bearded middle-aged man! In other words, it was these people who beat this powerful middle-aged man to near death! If I am discovered by these people, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Thinking about this, Zhang Ye knew that this place had become a dangerous area. He hesitated for a moment, then muttered, "I'm sorry," and threw the bearded middle-aged man's body into the river. After disposing of the body, Zhang Ye quickly threw the things he had brought into the river as well.

Zhang Ye was a young boy of twelve or thirteen, but after his memory awakened, he seemed like a different person. He handled the destruction of evidence with such efficiency and decisiveness that even an experienced person would be impressed.

Glancing at the things being carried away by the river, Zhang Ye did not hesitate and quickly left the place.

Less than half an hour after Zhang Ye left the waterfall, several figures appeared in the air. The leader was a tall and muscular middle-aged man wearing a bright red robe and carrying a snow-white single-edged sword on his back. He exuded an extremely oppressive aura, indicating his profound and unfathomable cultivation.

"Master, the target's last location is here," a short man said, sniffing the air vigorously and pointing to the place where the bearded middle-aged man had last been. "Look, there is still a lot of blood here."

The red-robed middle-aged man said slowly, "Continue searching!"

The short man frowned and said, "Master, I can no longer find his trail. I suspect the target has escaped through the river..." He hesitated for a moment and added, "Near this waterfall, I also detected the scent of a second person. I don't know if this person rescued the target."

"There is a second person's scent?" The red-robed middle-aged man's face changed slightly, and he immediately gave an order: "Immediately notify the people on the outer perimeter to seal off a hundred-mile radius and capture and kill all suspicious individuals! We will search along the river and won't return until we find the target!"
