At this moment, a cold sneer filled with mockery came from behind Yuan Ming and Yan Sijing.
Both of them looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a graceful figure in a black robe, shrouded in the Yin Qi not far away, evidently a Core Formation Stage cultivator from the Black Desert Scatter Alliance.
This person had appeared quite abruptly and without a sound, neither Yuan Ming nor Yan Sijing had noticed where this person came from or when they had appeared.
Yan Sijing's expression changed drastically, a golden light flashed in her hands, and a gold treasure sword with an ancient design and engraved with numerous monster patterns appeared, her face full of wariness.
"Isn't it a bit sneaky to eavesdrop on others' conversations so silently?" Yuan Ming stopped Yan Sijing with a gesture and asked in an even tone.
The figure in the black robe paid no heed, as if Yuan Ming and Yan Sijing were of no consequence, and the figure blurred, heading straight toward the valley.
