"What? There's a cultivator?" Wang Xiaoqiang withdrew his hand from Ye Qingcheng's delicate body, slightly rose, and looked down at the Heavenly Pool from the Spirit Spring Flying Boat.

In the early autumn weather, this season, the Heavenly Pool is most beautiful, and its water is the bluest and clearest. People often say the Heavenly Pool is a piece of beautiful jade set atop a snowy mountain, and this statement is true. Moreover, looking down from the Spirit Spring Flying Boat, one can clearly appreciate this fact.

Next to the Heavenly Pool, the area was desolate, except for three men who incredibly were standing on the surface of the water, not knowing what they were doing.

"Let's go down and have a look..." Wang Xiaoqiang willed, and the Spirit Spring Flying Boat descended to the edge of the water. The two jumped off the Flying Boat, Wang Xiaoqiang willed, and the Spirit Spring Flying Boat suddenly dispersed into two hundred Five Elements Spirit Springs, the five colors swirling and reflecting on the greenish pool water, a drunkenly colorful scene, but only Wang Xiaoqiang could appreciate this beautiful sight.

The three men standing on the pool surface were intently staring at the lake surface, using their Divine Sense to probe the depths of the water, so they did not immediately notice Wang Xiaoqiang and Ye Qingcheng.

At this moment, all 328 Spirit Springs inside and outside Wang Xiaoqiang's body began to vibrate.

This phenomenon suggested that Ye Qingcheng's words were true, that the three men standing on the water were indeed cultivators. In fact, even if the Spirit Springs hadn't reacted, Wang Xiaoqiang could tell that these three men had a Cultivation Base, and it was not low.

After all, not just anyone could stand and tread on the waves. Even masters of National Arts would find it difficult to achieve such a feat.

Those who can tread on the waves all possess the ability for Sky Manipulation, which means, at the very least, they have Golden Core Cultivation.

"Hmm? These three have significant Cultivation Bases. However, by looking at their attire, they are not from the Righteous Path..." Ye Qingcheng closely scrutinized the three men, observing them with her Divine Sense, her lovely brows slightly furrowed.

"Are you saying they could be Evil Cultivators?"

"Exactly." Ye Qingcheng's tone suddenly darkened. "Oh? That person, why does he look like Dual-Faced Impermanence..."

"Who is Dual-Faced Impermanence?"

"An expert Evil Cultivator, Golden Core at its peak. Those Wuchang Chains Lin Jinghong once used originally belonged to this person."

"Uh... This person is so malevolent, I'll eliminate him later!" Wang Xiaoqiang declared righteously.

Since ancient times, the righteous and the evil have been like water and fire, not meeting if possible, but coming to blows upon encounter. Moreover, disciples of the Taiyi Sect have the duty to annihilate Evil Cultivators.

"Little Qiang, we should still be cautious. I see that Dual-Faced Impermanence is in the Late Golden Core Stage, and the two people with him are both in the Mid Golden Core Stage. If these three join forces, we, we might not be opponents..."

"Don't be scared, let's first see what they are up to. We'll act accordingly!" Wang Xiaoqiang said, wrapping his arm around Ye Qingcheng's slender waist.

Ye Qingcheng obediently nodded her head and rested it on Wang Xiaoqiang's shoulder.

While these two were observing the three people on the water, those three also noticed Wang Xiaoqiang and Ye Qingcheng. They initially thought that due to the strong winds today, no visitors would come to the poolside. To their dismay, not only had two people arrived but they were also not ordinary people; they were two Cultivators, which was extremely disadvantageous for them in capturing the Red Gold Ox Beast.

A few days ago, they had heard news that a water monster had been spotted in the Heavenly Pool again and had thus rushed there together, only to use their Divine Sense and discover that the water monster was a beast called the Red Gold Ox Beast. This Red Gold Ox Beast was a treasure all over, with its two horns being premium materials for crafting Pills, and its inner core was equivalent to a Superior Pill, Nine-Turn Golden Core. If they obtained this inner core, it would be like obtaining a Nine-Turn Golden Core priced successively, and Cultivators in the Late Golden Core Stage could use this inner core to break through the bottleneck and form a Nascent Soul.

Dual-Faced Impermanence was just in the Late Golden Core Stage, and if he obtained the inner core of the Red Gold Ox, he could become a Nascent Soul Old Monster. The other two Evil Cultivators could each have a horn, from which Pills crafted would be equivalent to Middle Grade Pills, greatly aiding their rapid promotion.

Seeing a Foundation Establishment Early Stage and an Early Golden Core Stage youngster coming to the poolside, the gaze of Dual-Faced Impermanence and the other two Evil Cultivators fell upon Ye Qingcheng and Wang Xiaoqiang, especially upon seeing Ye Qingcheng; their eyes immediately straightened uncontrollably.

Evil Cultivators like them, by virtue of their abilities, had wealth and women when desired. However, they had never seen or been with a woman like Ye Qingcheng.

"Yo, Wuchang Boss, this woman isn't bad, eh? What if we take her and have some fun…" the skinny tall one with a donkey face, intently staring at the beautiful distant Ye Qingcheng, suggested to Dual-Faced Impermanence.

"Hehe, of course, the old rules, kill the man, take turns with the woman…" another one, with a pig-like face and a short fat stature, also revealed a lewd smile.

"No, no… Donkey Saint, Demon Boar," Dual-Faced Impermanence, with a terrifying face, squeezed out a sinister smile, "today neither of you argue with me. You can't have the woman; I want her to become my dharma slave, serving me for life. Moreover, I just happen to need a Dual Cultivation partner. This young girl has established her Foundation at such a young age, which shows good aptitude. She should be perfect for Dual Cultivation with me…"

Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the two, known as Donkey Saint and Demon Boar, showed unwillingness.

Each time these three caught a beautiful woman, Dual-Faced Impermanence was always the first to go, and then it was their turn. But this time, they had encountered a celestial beauty for the first time, and not taking their chance would be a great regret in their lives, even if it meant they would only drink the wash water; yet, Dual-Faced Impermanence even denied them that.

This made them somewhat resentful and irritated.

"Wuchang Boss," the one nicknamed Demon Boar licked his somewhat dry lips, "This young woman is just in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, and she only recently advanced, with an unstable foundation. If we perform Dual Cultivation, the chances of success might not be large…"

"Hmm~~" Dual-Faced Impermanence turned his head, his gaze coldly sweeping over Demon Boar. His half-black, half-white face appeared even more sinister and terrifying, "Demon Boar, what do you mean, you want to compete with me over a woman? Believe it or not, I will smash your pig head…"

Demon Boar shrank his neck and dared not speak anymore. He knew how formidable Dual-Faced Impermanence was, being in the Late Golden Core Stage, while he was in the Early Golden Core Stage, lacking the strength to contend. Moreover, it wasn't good to have conflicts over a woman.

"Listen up, later you help me watch that girl and make sure she doesn't escape. As for the boy, hehe, I'll handle him…" Dual-Faced Impermanence sinisterly chuckled, "You wanted a show, right? Later, I'll do her right by the poolside, and make that boy watch, haha…"

Hearing Dual-Faced Impermanence's sinister laughter over the pool, Ye Qingcheng anxiously said to Wang Xiaoqiang, "Little Qiang, I heard that Dual-Faced Impermanence not only uses Living Souls and Spirits to craft Magic Treasures but also likes to find high Cultivation women who are also beautiful for Dual Cultivation. Little Qiang, are you really sure you can handle Peerless Wuchang? If not, it's still not too late to run…"

"Don't worry, I am confident!" Wang Xiaoqiang responded. He now possessed 328 Spiritual Springs and his Cultivation had reached the Nascent Soul Mid Stage, nearly pushing into Nascent Soul Late Stage. Handling an Evil Human Cultivator in the Late Golden Core Stage and two in Middle Golden Core Stage was completely manageable.

While Wang Xiaoqiang was assuring Ye Qingcheng, the group of three led by Dual-Faced Impermanence had already begun moving across the water towards them. (To be continued.
