Chapter 160: Unknown Fugitive
Chapter 160: Unknown Fugitive
Elder Gu moved next to the Fa Li, who was initially standing on top of the tree but moved to a much stable branch to avoid getting close to the elder who was outside of his comfort zone. A vile viper strikes without warning.
"Tsk. What a useless man." Elder Gu said disapprovingly, immediately feeling Fa Li's fear that he considered a great weakness.
Chuckling nervously, "Forgive me, however, what do we owe the pleasure of seeing an Elder from the Sung clan?" Fa Li really hoped that these people were just passing by.
He had other plans to take care of, in the Mortal Domain and he would like to avoid dealing with unnecessary things, like pretending to worship a peculiar elder from one of the strongest clans in the Immortal Domain.
"Hmp. You are not qualified enough to know that!" The elder shouted with disdain, nose looking down at Fa Li.
With a giggle, after blowing the smoke from her pipe, "Elder my father mentioned that this was a very important duty, so he could use help from someone much better." she uttered, giving a flirty wink to Fa Li, which confirmed that she was covering for him.

The elder thought about it for a moment, then shook his head, "How stupid. Young Miss, if you are going to get fooled by men, might as well go home." Elder Gu said reprimand on his face showing clear dislike of what Sung Zhi Ruo said.
"Why is it so hard to tell that we are looking for a fugitive?" she said, with a smirk.
Fa Li frowned, "Fugitive? What kind of fugitive?" he asked. It did not make sense, why the Sung clan will get involved with a sentinel job. Surely, the bounty was high enough for them to be interested.
"Fine! We are looking for the lawbreaker that will cause chaos to all domains in our universe." Elder Gu said grumpily.
"Will?" he asked, as it does not make sense, "Meaning it was not done yet of course?" Fa Li clarified.
Nodding her head, "Yeah. Since you were not in the Immortal Domain recently, let me tell you. The Shen Yu Divine Priest received a holy premonition which caused a great commotion in all major families and clans." she paused for a moment, remembering how her father had relayed the information with excitement and resolve.
Then she continued, "The Divine Priest claims that the woman will cause the death of many if she would not be stopped soon, so we have now the most wanted being in all domains."
"So it is a woman. How can we find this woman?" Fa Li asked, curiously. If the premonition was really going to happen, he must do something about this.
Shaking her head, "That's the whole problem. the Diving Priest only clue is 'A keeper that broke the law of life and death.' We can just assume that the woman is a very strong cultivator." It was quite easy to look for cultivators who had a Keeper's lineage before, now they were scarce.
So the woman was a keeper like him. But what did 'broke the law of life and death meant'?
Crossing his arms over his chest, he smiled helplessly, saying, "That's not a lot helpful."
"Premonition is very hard to decipher. What do you expect?!" Elder Gu had been watching Fa Li's expression since earlier and had a bad feeling about trusting the man.
To test his theory, he moved suddenly like a lighting to catch Fa Li off guard, his one hand, holding the man's neck choking, "Tell me what you know?" He demanded.
