Afterwards, Lu Jiuli and Tie Xiaosheng repeatedly tried to communicate with this person, but all attempts were unsuccessful.

The blood-colored figure always hid within two hundred miles of the Mi Family Manor, lingering without leaving, yet constantly evading the searches of the Iron Banner Gang.

Moreover, this person possessed formidable combat abilities, not only having Third Grade power but also proficient in the escape skills of the Metal and Stone paths.

Lu Tie and his companion tried everything they could, but never had the chance to speak to the blood-colored figure.

Until a month and a half ago, another incident occurred.

This blood-colored figure suddenly appeared in front of the Iron Madman's clothes and cap grave, flattening it with one strike.

Afterward, as Lu Jiuli just mentioned, he organized manpower thrice to attempt repairing the clothes and cap grave, only to be forcibly scattered by the blood-colored figure each time.

This puzzled them even more.

Given the Iron Madman's character, he would never lay hands on his own brethren.

Yet, at this time, those injured by the blood-colored figure numbered over two hundred, with several severely injured and near death.

However, this person obviously held back, as though the blood-colored figure fought fiercely in combat, in these three battles, there were no mortalities.

The only notable harm was the forceful extraction of many people's Qi-Blood by him, heavily damaging their Primordial Qi.

This left Lu Tie and the other in a state of bewilderment, deeply pondering what the situation was with the blood-colored figure. If he was not the Iron Madman, then who was he? What was his purpose?

Chu Xisheng concentrated and observed the ruins of the grave for a moment, then turned aside to scan the surroundings, looking down at the mine below and the Mi Family Manor.

Chu Xisheng couldn't discern anything particularly obvious.

Fortunately, he had now brought in a professional.

He slightly raised his eyebrows: "I assume you've already surveyed this place. May I ask what exactly is the situation here?"

Tie Xiaosheng and Lu Jiuli were stunned by the question, their expressions filled with confusion.

The next moment, a figure appeared above them.

This person appeared to be in his twenties, with a robust and handsome countenance.

What was astonishing was that a sword, thin as a bamboo skewer, was embedded at his temple.

His voice was cold and clear, like metal and stone: "I've guessed a little; first, I want to know who arranged this grave?"

Tie Xiaosheng and Lu Jiuli's faces changed when they saw this person, their expressions filled with astonishment.

They both recognized his identity.

What astonished them was that their Flag Leader had actually invited this person—the thirty-sixth on the Heavenly List, 'Star Mage' from Luo Han Sect!

Chu Xisheng clasped his hands behind his back: "It was a friend of mine. You should have heard of her, she is the beloved daughter of Sword and Dream, is she involved in this matter?"

"I just want to know which fool it is!"

Luo Han Sect let out a cold laugh: "This girl clearly only has a basic level of mastery in Fengshui and formations, yet she is daring enough.

This grave seems to encompass the Four Symbols and the Five Elements, aligning with the heavens and the earth, but neglects that this place has been the site of fierce battles involving tens of thousands, so the Killing Power is intensely prevalent. This is clearly a configuration bringing in Western golden energy and Evil Power into the grave, perfect for nurturing an evil corpse."

"Evil corpse?"

Chu Xisheng and the two behind him had their pupils contract.

He felt a chill in his heart.

Corpse transformation was, in his view, the worst possible outcome.

Chu Xisheng secretly gritted his teeth; at that time, Luanyi had boasted him into high expectations.

In the end, it wasn't reliable.

"It's not just a simple corpse transformation, though. The sorcerer who set up this Fengshui formation might have been of limited skill, but rather fortunate. Your old Banner Master was even granted the position of Mountain God, causing this corpse transformation to exhibit peculiar changes, which for you, might end up being a blessing in disguise. The Iron Madman might retain some spiritual wisdom from his life—"

Luo Han Sect also turned to look at the Mi Family Manor: "However, to ascertain his exact status, I have to see him in his current state. Especially that set of 'Iron Futing,' I must see this Demon Armor, to know what the situation is, so—"

He raised his eyebrows slightly, showing a look of anticipation: "You may continue repairing the grave, to lure him out."

Luo Han Sect was also quite intrigued.

In his fifty years of cultivation, this was the first time he had encountered something so unusual.
