Lin Qi heard from Senior Sister Yuan Xi that the strength of ferocious beasts in the outside world would skyrocket after nightfall, and even foundation-building monks might be in danger. Only Jindan Master could walk unimpeded.
If the barrier is tampered with, the message cannot be conveyed, and Senior Brother Tan and others who are out are unaware of the situation. If they are attacked by ferocious beasts, it will be a certain death!
Lin Qi stood up and immediately realized the seriousness of this matter.
"What can we do to restore the barrier?!"
The young female Xiu Xiu was about to tell Lin Qi how to do it, when the western sky suddenly burst into flames, illuminating half of Bishui Town that was blocked by ice.
The cold air steamed up, and the luster of the ice crystals reflected the dazzling light under the firelight.
Lin Qi and Tan Yueqing looked up in surprise.
Tan Yueqing immediately recognized the person who cast the spell.
"Senior Sister Lu? They are back?!"
The one who temporarily takes over Senior Brother Li's position as captain is this Senior Sister named Lu Jin.
Lin Qi couldn't hide the joy on her face, "Senior Sister Lu is back, then Senior Brother Tan and the others should be fine, and Xu Ying should be back too?"
Tan Yueqing suppressed her joy, "At least the crisis in Bishui Town has been resolved today."
"Come on, let's go back and take a look!"
Lin Qi and Tan Yueqing supported the female cultivator from the logistics team and rushed to the fighting position.
Lin Qi asked smoothly: "The beads you just gave me are really good. I will look for opportunities to collect some when I have time."
In other words, after earning spiritual stones, Lin Qi opened her mouth and settled in Tun.
Tan Yueqing glanced at her silently, "Can't stock up."
"Why? It's expensive?!"
"Expensive and rare. Spirit beads are obtained by relying on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth spiritual objects. Spiritual objects of heaven and earth are difficult to find and cannot be encountered without a chance."
"Spiritual creatures of heaven and earth?" Lin Qi paused.
It seems like they just have a chance?
The tall green vine that was taking root in the ground couldn't help but shudder.
It looked around in confusion. How could it feel cold in such a high temperature?
Could it be that the ice milk has been absorbed too much?
Just when Tongtian Green Vine was hesitating whether to pull out the roots and take a rest, there was sudden movement in the mound not far away.
It froze suddenly and quickly continued to shrink back to where it was, pretending to be dead.
After pretending for a while, it realized something was wrong!
Who sneaked into its territory quietly, and it didn't notice at all? !
…
Lin Qi and Tan Yueqing first sent the person for treatment before going to see Senior Sister Lu and others.
Walking back to the brightly lit room, Lin Qi saw that the living room was full of familiar faces, with two bodies of men in black lying in the middle.
"Senior Sister Lu, are you back?! All the evil cultivators in Bishui Town have been eliminated? Where are Senior Brother Tan and the others?"
When Lin Qi asked the last sentence, she realized that everyone's faces were not good-looking.
Especially Senior Sister Lu, her face was gloomy and serious, her lips pursed tightly.
The smile on Lin Qi's face stopped, and she was startled, "Did something happen to Senior Brother Tan and the others?"
The air pressure in the room dropped terribly for a moment, and many people subconsciously turned their heads.
Lin Qi thought something had really happened to Senior Brother Tan. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Senior Sister Lu say in a deep voice: "We received the order and immediately retreated to the barrier. We don't know the situation of Senior Brother Tan and others yet."
"Isn't it because you received news from us?"
Lin Qi was full of doubts, "Who would issue the order at this time? Could it be that the dispatched Master Jindan has arrived?"
Every time Lin Qi asked a question, the air pressure in the room dropped by one point.
She had actually noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere, but Senior Brother Tan, Xu Ying, and the others were all outside with unknown life and death, so Lin Qi had to ask everything clearly.
Senior Sister Lu's face showed a bit of defeat and helplessness, "It was Senior Brother Li's order. He asked me to immediately retreat to Bishui Town with the guard team. We are not allowed to go out again."
"What?!" Lin Qi and Tan Yueqing were both shocked.
Why would Li Shouzheng issue an order at this time?
Lin Qi asked in disbelief: "What about Senior Brother Tan and the others outside?"
She thought that Senior Sister Lu and others rushed back after receiving the news of a sneak attack by evil cultivators in the barrier, but who knew that it was actually Li Shouzheng's order to retreat?
What's the reason for retreat?
Could it be that Li Shouzheng knew the situation in Bishui Town and specifically issued the order?
The Ice-killing Peak cultivators in the room all had expressions that were somewhat difficult to speak, but it was Senior Sister Lu who finally spoke.
"Senior Brother Li said that the hunting team and the guard team should perform their respective duties. Don't interfere... Let us guard Bishui Town and don't delay the spellcasting mission."
"But Senior Brother Tan and the others are uncertain whether they will live or die outside. How many lives are there?!" Tan Yueqing couldn't help but stood up and asked.
Lin Qi calmed down, stretched out her hand to grab the agitated Tan Yueqing, and saluted Senior Sister Lu with a cupped fist.
"Senior Sister, Senior Brother Li is right. The Guardian Team has the mission of the Guardian Team, and Bishui Town also needs to be guarded. Moreover, it is very dangerous outside the barrier at night. Going out for the Guardian Team will only increase unnecessary casualties."
To blame Senior Sister Lu for the safety of the brothers and sisters in the hunting team is suspected of moral kidnapping.
The danger outside the barrier is extremely dangerous. Senior Sister Lu can take people out to search for the sake of her fellow disciples.
What's more, there is still Bishui Town that needs to be in charge. No matter from the overall situation or from a personal perspective, senior sister Lu cannot be blamed at all.
It's just that Senior Brother Li's excuse... seems too selfish and narrow-minded.
Senior Sister Lu's face softened slightly after hearing Lin Qi's words, "Senior Brother Li has not considered this matter, but we cannot disobey orders. We only hope that Senior Brother Tan can come back safely."
Lin Qi nodded and told Senior Sister Lu all the news she knew.
"The barrier has been manipulated?! So this is how these evil cultivators got in!"
Senior Sister Lu frowned, "It seems that Bishui Town needs to be investigated. The barrier also needs to be readjusted. I'm afraid we have to contact Senior Sister Luo about this matter..."
But Li Shouzheng's statement that everyone should perform their duties immediately put Senior Sister Lu and others in an awkward position.
How can they go to Senior Sister Luo to discuss the barrier now?
There was chaos inside and outside Bishui Town, so could they really continue to perform spellcasting tasks as if nothing had happened?
The expressions of the disciples of the Guardian Team were extremely complicated, especially the disciples of Killing Ice Peak, who could not hide the anger and confusion on their faces.
Lin Qi then recommended herself: "Senior Sister Lu, let me contact Senior Sister Luo!"
Tan Yueqing's eyes fell on Lin Qi, her eyes slightly shocked, but she also offered to go with Lin Qi.
Senior Sister Lu also felt that at this moment, no one was more suitable to find Luo Yidi than Lin Qi.
"Okay, then you two can go and be safe on the road!"
"Thank you, senior sister!"
As soon as she walked out of the door, Tan Yueqing pulled Lin Qi, "You know that Senior Sister Luo is not in Bishui Town, what do you want to do?!"
When the senior sister from the logistics team came back, Lin Qi and Tan Yueqing knew that Luo Yidi had also left Bishui Town with someone to find someone.
That's why Tan Yueqing looked shocked when she heard Lin Qi say she was going to find Senior Sister Luo.
Lin Qi was calm, "Didn't you guess it? I'm going to leave the barrier to find someone!"
