"With just three maps, one can find that place. What do those three sets of numbers represent?" Yang Xiao pressed on.
"I don’t know, I truly don’t know!" Bone Burning Taoist pleaded.
But Yang Xiao wasn’t someone who would easily believe that, so he tortured him harshly again, only then confirming that the other really didn’t know.
It seems that to figure out what’s going on, he’ll have to catch the other two protectors.
What a bother. He originally didn’t want to become enemies with the Withered Bone Pavilion, initially only needing to kill their patron, but now he was being forced to initiate a massacre.

"Let me ask you, what are the strengths of those two protectors?" This was crucial to Yang Xiao; he’s not reckless, knowing oneself and one’s enemy leads to victory in every battle.
Right now, Bone Burning Taoist had no edge in front of Yang Xiao and answered whatever he knew, "The Five Guardians are at an Upper Ghost Level, the... Great Protector is truly strong, with a half-step Nether Realm level."
Yang Xiao calculated the combat power on his side; he should be able to fight against an Upper Ghost Level, but as for a half-step Nether Realm, he’d need reinforcements.
Yang Xiao has fought against a true half-step Nether Realm expert before, that was the Magic Sect’s Vajra. It must be said, experts at that level are indeed fierce, last time even with elixirs, he almost lost.
And this time Yang Xiao doesn’t plan on using elixirs. Firstly, they are too precious and hard to replenish, and secondly, Sheng Yanlin had repeatedly reminded him that these elixirs must not be consumed excessively.
Reaching into his bosom and feeling the round elixir, ripples stirred in Yang Xiao’s heart; this thing was reserved for his survival.
"Where are those two protectors now?" Yang Xiao continued to ask.
"I don’t know, we act separately. I’ve always been at odds with those two, unless summoned by the patron, we rarely interact."
Yang Xiao believed this. If he were the patron, he’d do the same, unable to entrust such an important secret to several secretly colluding subordinates. Otherwise, the secret wouldn’t be a secret.
Breaking the secret apart is to prevent these guys from joining forces to breach a secret that only the patron can control.
That so-called Trial Land is vital to the Withered Bone Pavilion. It’s fair to say, whoever controls this secret is the master of the Withered Bone Pavilion.
"Where exactly is your patron now?" Yang Xiao asked the most crucial question.
"His... His whereabouts are unpredictable, but it’s said he spends most of his time in the Trial Land, cultivating arduously," Bone Burning Taoist recalled, "Ordinary Angels can’t last long there; typically, Fierce Level Apostles last about two to three days, people like us can last about seven days, and the Great Protector and Second Guardian can reportedly last more than half a month."
The longer one lasts, the more benefits they receive, improving physical quality, enhancing resonance with Magic Artifacts, which is crucial for Angels.
But the side effects are also obvious, turning them into these grotesque forms, neither human nor ghost, when appearing suddenly at night, they would likely be mistaken for ghosts.
On the way back after capturing Bone Burning Taoist, Yang Xiao used the Ghost Lantern to check this guy’s body, it had already been heavily corroded by the Magic Artifact, which means, his lifespan will be greatly shortened.
Exchanging lifespan for an increase in strength, this is by no means a long-lasting plan in Yang Xiao’s eyes.
Though most Angels don’t live long, this is not the path Yang Xiao wishes to choose.
"You say you don’t know the location of the Trial Land yet claim every time it’s the patron who takes you there, doesn’t that contradict?" Sui Chengguo suddenly asked from the side, "What, none of you can remember the way? Or have your memories been thoroughly erased?"
