Due to Duan Zhu's weak body, it was difficult to resist the cold air in the Void Swallowing Ring, so he was forced to say goodbye to Mirage (Brother Xiao) in tears in less than an hour.
"Don't worry, grandma, I will do my best to help my adoptive father return to his true form as soon as possible, so that I can reunite with my foster father."
Duan Zhu didn't want Xiao Feng to regain his true form, but how could she bear Long Chen to be in danger.
"Chen'er, mother knows your heart, but it is not easy to reshape your adoptive father's true body. You must do it according to your ability. I don't want you to risk your life for the sake of your adoptive father. What if something goes wrong? Unexpectedly, how do you want me to explain it to your mother?"
"Chen'er receives your concern from Auntie. I won't act recklessly. I won't risk myself without enough confidence." Until now, Long Chen could only temporarily stabilize Duan Zhu's heart.
"If this is the case, grandma will feel relieved."
"By the way, Aniang, this matter is of great importance, so don't tell others about it for the time being."
"Aniang knows, Chen'er, you have to practice tomorrow, so go to bed early."
That night, Long Chen rested at Duan Zhu's house. When it got dark, he set out. He didn't dare to disturb Duan Zhu and Yun'er, otherwise it would waste some time.
Just as he walked to the entrance of the village, a beautiful figure appeared in front of Long Chen.
"Yun'er, why are you here?"
Yun'er raised her head, her eyes full of tears, pear blossoms with rain, looking pitiful.
"Brother Chen didn't even tell me when he came last night."
When Long Chen saw such pitiful Yun'er, he couldn't help but feel heartache. At the same time, he felt an inexplicable concern in his heart.
"Yun'er, it's Brother Chen's fault. It was already very late when we got here last night, and you fell asleep again, so I didn't dare to wake up sister Yun'er."
Yun'er took Long Chen's hand and shook it, saying, "I know that Brother Chen is going to practice this time, and Yun'er doesn't dare to stop him. She only regrets that she has no ability and cannot join hands with Brother Chen in the world."
"Yun'er, Brother Chen will definitely come back early and take you to travel around the world."
"Brother Chen is a person who does great things, but there are so many dangers waiting for you here. What can't I help you with? So you must wear this to keep you safe."
Yun'er took off a half-moon-shaped transparent pendant hanging around her neck and handed it to Long Chen.
"What's this?"
"This is my amulet. I heard my mother say that this amulet was hung around my neck when she rescued me. It has been hanging on my neck ever since. Today I will give this amulet to Brother Chen to bless you every time. Evil turns into good fortune, and misfortunes turn into auspiciousness.”
"Yun'er, how can you give such a valuable thing to me as an amulet?"
"No, Brother Chen, you must accept it, otherwise I will be worried every day and unable to sleep."
Long Chen knew that if he didn't accept the pendant given by Yun'er today, she would definitely be sad and worried day and night, so he kept it and hung it around his neck.
"Yun'er, I accept it. It's getting late and I'm on my way."
Yun'er said with tears in her eyes: "Brother Chen, take care and come back soon." Then she turned and left.
Looking at Yun'er's leaving figure, Long Chen suddenly felt his heart sinking, and an indescribable feeling came over his heart. However, how could he be immersed in the love between his children at this moment? After a short pause, he set off on his way.
"Where should we go?"
Although Long Chen didn't have a specific purpose for going to practice, one thing was that he wanted to go to a place with many monsters and beasts, because that's where he could get enough Beast Yuan Dan.
Relying on the extraordinary vision of the Purple Demon Eyes, he avoided danger all the way and climbed over mountains and ridges. At dusk on the second day, he finally came to a fork in the road two hundred miles away.
"To the east is Heiyun Castle, and to the north is Laijia Fort." Standing at the fork in the road, Long Chen was thoughtful. Thinking of Heiyun Castle's invasion of Longjia Fort a few days ago, he suddenly had an idea.
"The enemy can go, so can I! Let's go to Black Cloud Castle for a walk today and replenish ourselves by the way."
Long Chen relies on the special nature of his Yuan Power. So far, no one in the Eighteen Longmen Forts has been able to detect the existence of his Yuan Power. Therefore, he can cleverly avoid the Yuan Power search by the masters of Black Cloud Castle. Who knows? Unconsciously, he arrived at the foot of the city wall of Black Cloud Castle, chose to hide in a safe corner, and then released his soul and entered Black Cloud Castle.
You can feel that the security of Heiyun Castle is even tighter this time, and the posts in the courtyard are much denser than the last time you came here. However, these arrangements are of no use to Long Chen who has activated his soul.
It didn't take long for Long Chen to figure out the location of Black Cloud Castle's alchemy room, armory, meeting hall, and elders' hall.
Soon the soul wandered to the meeting hall.
In the upper middle of the meeting hall is the Lord of Black Cloud Castle, Hei Xuanfeng. The one on the left is the Great Elder of Black Cloud Castle and the actual person in charge, Hei Yunhe. Both brothers have dark faces.
The two rows below were filled with high-level officials from Black Cloud Castle. One person was standing and the other was kneeling in the middle of the two rows.
The kneeling person was trembling all over.
When Long Chen took a look, wasn't this none other than Long Xinwu, the chief guard at Longjiabao Presbyterian Hall? How did he get here? Then he immediately realized that Long Xinwu should be the spy lurking in Longjiabao. This shows that his brother Long Xinde is also a spy.
The person standing was the master of Black Cloud Castle. His face was pale. This was not because of the fear in his heart, but because he was practicing Yinhan techniques.
Black Tornado shouted loudly: "Ouye, didn't you say that all the offensive weapons within the walls of Longjiabao were destroyed? Why did our surprise attack team encounter another raid this morning, causing heavy casualties to our Heiyun Fort? You still have What to say?"
Ou Ye is the man standing in the middle. This man is also the master of Black Cloud Castle. It is said that he was sent by a big force in Longmen Town. His face was pale, but it was not the paleness of fear in his heart, but the paleness caused by practicing the Yinhan technique.
Long Chen also roughly knew the whole story. It was Heiyun Castle who attacked Longjia Castle again in the early morning, but fell into Longshan's plan and suffered heavy losses.
"Fort Master, this is my fault. I underestimated the capable people in Longjiabao to help me, and fell into their trick. I thought that all the offensive weapons had been destroyed. It seems that the senior officials of Longjiabao have seen through our placement beside them. spies."
Black Whirlwind was furious when he heard this, and he roared: "Is that so? No. 2!"
Long Chen didn't expect that Long Xinwu was codenamed No. 2 in Black Cloud Castle. From this, it can be seen that there should be No. 1, No. 3, No. 4 and so on.
"Fort Master, please spare your life! Please remember that our brothers are dedicated to serving the fort master and spare the life of this little dog."
Black Tornado suddenly walked down with a smile on his face, and then said to Long Xinwu: "So you have been exposed in Longjiabao?"
"That's right, please keep it, Lord, please."
"So all your brothers have been exposed?"
Long Xinwu even trembled and said: "Fortress Master, we didn't know it was a plot set up by that boy Long Chen. He deliberately removed the guards on the tower and set up a disguised bed crossbow on the tower. The purpose was to lure us Come out, and by the time we found out it was already too late, No. 1, No. 3, No. 4 and No. 5 were caught on the spot and had no choice but to escape alone."
