"Let's go." He told the masked man.

The masked man and Long Chen both left the village. They walked through various paths as they continued ahead.

After walking for over an hour, they finally reached an empty-looking forest.

"This is as far as I can go." The masked man suddenly stopped as he said.

"Are you messing with me? You said that you will take me to the cave if your Master! I don't see any cave here." Long Chen let out with an angry look on his face. 

"I'm not messing with you. I've fulfilled my promise and brought you to the cave. You see that large stone there?" The masked man replied to Long Chen. 

"Yeah. I see that stone. What about it?" Long Chen nodded his head as he gazed at the stone that was placed at about 400 meters of distance from him.

"The underground cave of the master is right behind that stone. I can't go any further than this otherwise the master might sense me and kill me. Please give me the Life Healing Pill so that I can leave now. I've fulfilled my side of the promise"The masked man told Long Chen with a serious gaze.

"What if you are lying about the cave and there is nothing behind that stone?" Long Chen asked as he smiled.

" How can you still doubt me? I swear on heaven's name that the cave is right beside that stone. Now give me my pill." The masked man let out with an annoyed look on his face.

"Alright, I'll trust you. As for the Life Healing Pill. Well, the thing is that I don't have any such pill...I lied." Long Chen smiled as he gripped the neck of the masked man and crushed his neck.

The masked man's lifeless body fell to the ground. His eyes were wide open in shock even after he died. Long Chen didn't even care about taking the mask off and looking at him.

Long Chen stared at the stone he was about to walk towards the stone when he heard some noise coming from nearby.

He looked back and realized that the noise was coming from the masked man's body. A frown appeared on Long Chen's face.

He stood there as he looked at the chest of the masked man with great interest. The noise continued for quite some time.

After a short time, Long Chen was finally able to see the thing that was making all that noise. His expressions turned strange as he looked at the thing.
