As he finished off Mu Jin, Su Changkong felt a jolt in his body, an inexplicable chill as if some unknown power had invaded his being!
"What is this...?"
Startled, Su Changkong immediately checked himself for changes and soon noticed a new green mark on the back of his hand, like vines or a serpent—a ghostly green mark!
"What's going on? As I killed Mu Jin, did a force from his body seep into mine, leaving this mark?"
Confounded, Su Changkong had killed many, even demon monsters, but this was the first time he had slain a scion of an ancient family, and he hadn't expected such bizarre circumstances to occur.
"What is this mark? Is it for tracking me?"
His expression shifting uncertainly, Su Changkong looked at the mark on his hand. He tried to use his True Qi to disperse it, but he could only make it invisible temporarily. As soon as he ceased his True Qi, the mark would reappear, as tenacious as a bone-deep tumor.
