"Hey, how come there's no one there? I clearly saw a ray of light falling here, why isn't there anyone?"
Just after Ye Lingfeng, Shangguan Ruer and others left, as expected by Ye Lingfeng and Su Yan, their whereabouts were discovered.
No, to be precise, Ye Lingfeng's whereabouts should have been discovered.
The reason why he was discovered was ultimately because Ye Lingfeng was too young.
Although he hid well, he restrained his aura in time when he met other monks, and even used magic to cover his appearance.
But he forgot that his original purpose of coming here was to save people. Therefore, although he restrained his aura, the momentum he exuded inadvertently was full of anxiety.
If you don't notice it carefully, no one can find it, but if you feel it carefully, you can still find it.
Moreover, it was late at night, this person was extremely fast, and his aura contained anxiety. Who could this person not pay attention to?
It is precisely because of these that several people followed Ye Lingfeng all the way. But they didn't dare to get too close. After all, the aura emitted by Ye Lingfeng made them frightened, and they had waited a long time to come out.
However, who would have thought that when they appeared here, there would be no one here, and there were still signs that no one had been there for a long time.
This puzzled one of them.
"Yang Lie, let me tell you, did you see clearly? You can't be mistaken."
The person who had expressed doubts before was named Yang Lie, and he was a monk who transformed the void, while the person who just spoke was named Wang Jian, who was also a monk who transformed the void.
There were two other people who came with them, their cultivation levels were also monks of transformation, one was named Zhou Xu and the other was named Minghao.
Judging from their clothes, they were dressed casually, and there were no badges or the like on dozens of their clothes. They seemed to be casual cultivators, not members of a sect or family.
After hearing Wang Jian's question, Yang Lie was also puzzled and said with a confused look on his face: "I don't know either, I just clearly..."
Yang Lie felt aggrieved and innocent. Looking at the three of them, he felt anxious, just to make the three of them believe in him.
But with the facts in front of them, the three of them obviously still believed what they saw, and were a little impatient with Yang Lie's explanation.
Seeing the three people like this, Yang Lie continued to explain: "You have to believe me. We have been brothers for so many years. Even if I lie to anyone, I can't lie to you. What's more, I am still here. Do you think I have that need?"
"Zhou Xu, Minghao, please say something!" Yang Lie saw that the three of them were still silent. Wang Jian gave up hope and immediately looked at the other two.
Minghao nodded when he saw this but hesitated, and finally looked at Zhou Xu.
Seeing this, Zhou Xu looked around, with a thoughtful look in his eyes from time to time. He had already seen some clues. He couldn't help but take a deep breath and said slowly, "Okay, since you can't find it, it must be that we are late. But there is something weird here, oh, eh, have you noticed that Ye Lingfeng has been changed by magic?"
Needless to say, Yang Lie, while Wang Jian and Minghao closed their eyes and carefully felt the changes around them.
Not long after, the two of them opened their eyes, looked at Zhou Xu, and nodded involuntarily.
Wang Jian said apologetically: "Brother Zhou is right. There is indeed something strange here. Brother Yang, I misunderstood you."
"It's okay, we are all brothers." Yang Lie has a simple and honest personality, and obviously does not take this moment to heart.
But he said with hesitation on his face: "Then what should we do next? The light disappeared when it came here, how should we search for it."
"With the strength of the four of us, it is obviously impossible to find the source of the light escape. Why don't we tell what happened here so that we can fish in troubled waters, what do you think?"
After listening to Yang Lie's words, Minghao pondered for a moment and directly expressed his thoughts.
The three of them all nodded to Minghao after hearing this. It was obvious that they agreed with Minghao's suggestions.
But at this moment, Zhou Xu showed a hesitant look on his face.
Seeing the hesitation on Zhou Xu's face, the three of them all focused on Zhou Xu.
It can be seen that among the four, it is obvious that although Zhou Xu is the youngest, he is still higher than the three in terms of strength and prestige.
Usually, it is obvious that when making important decisions, although four people discuss it, it is Zhou Xu who makes the final decision.
Feeling the gazes of the three people, Zhou Xu pondered for a moment and then said: "Just do what Brother Ming said, but you can't say it directly."
"Brother Zhou, what does this mean? If you don't say it directly, are you spreading it secretly? Wouldn't this be too complicated?"
The three of them heard the words, and Yang Lie undoubtedly gave full play to the essence of asking if he didn't understand. As long as he didn't understand, he had to ask, even if no one answered.
But for Zhou Xu, he believed that Zhou Xu would definitely explain it clearly to him.
Minghao and Wang Jian were also a little confused, but they didn't ask.
"Haha, brother Yang, don't be anxious, just listen to me and tell you slowly."
Zhou Xu laughed when he heard this and then said: "Do you think, if a stranger gives you free food to eat, would you dare to eat it? Will you be suspicious in your heart?"
"That's for sure. I will definitely be suspicious. After all, they are strangers. They are committing adultery or stealing for no reason. Just like a weasel greeting a chicken in the New Year, he has no good intentions!" Yang Lie said it without thinking.
However, after he finished speaking, he saw that the three people's eyes were staring at him, and they couldn't help but asked carefully: "Did I say something wrong?"
"Haha, Brother Yang, you are not wrong, but your metaphor is too...hey, forget it." Seeing Yang Lie like this, he is a bit cute and naive. It is difficult for people to imagine that he is actually a A monk.
Wang Jian wanted to laugh at this, but in the end he was defeated by Yang Lie's cute appearance.
Although there are occasional quarrels, attacks, and jokes between the four of them, ridicule should be avoided.
"Ah! Haha, I'm only at this level, so you just have to laugh and forget it." Yang Lie realized after hearing this, couldn't help scratching the back of his head, and laughed awkwardly.
"Haha..." The three of them laughed when they heard this.
Finally, Zhou Xu said: "Okay, everyone, please stop laughing. Brother Yang's metaphor is indeed inappropriate, but it is true, and it is the same reason, and the same is true for the news."
The three people nodded after hearing this, but they all said nothing because they knew that Zhou Xu had not finished speaking yet, and they were all waiting for the next step.
"In this case. We want other people to help us find it. If we try to fish in troubled waters, other people are not fools and will naturally not believe it easily. But if we collect spiritual stones secretly, it will be different. After all, with spiritual stones Even if you have doubts about the news in exchange, you will still check it out because of the spiritual stone, what do you think?"
Sure enough, when the three of them heard what Zhou Xu said, they all nodded in praise.
However, they did not expect that before Zhou Xu finished speaking, they heard Zhou Xu continue to say:
There is an undercurrent surging in Xuzhou City right now, but its direction is beyond our control. But if we fan the wind secretly, although we cannot control the direction, we can increase the momentum of this undercurrent. Without further ado, we will split up and finally meet at the inn. Do you have any questions? "
Zhou Xu analyzed the matter in one breath and made arrangements.
Naturally, the three of them had no objections to Zhou Xu's decision. They nodded and then left.
After the four people left, Shangguan Ruer and Su Yan also walked out of the darkness, and Su Yan said: "You have seen it, in this row, you really caused trouble for Ye Lingfeng. We have to do something."
"Brother Su Yan, I..." Shangguan Ru'er also didn't expect that her unintentional actions would expose Ye Lingfeng's whereabouts. For a moment, Shangguan Ru'er felt extremely guilty.
After all, no one knew that Ye Lingfeng was hiding outside the city of Xuzhou, but because of her own negligence, people discovered her. She cannot escape the blame.
It's just that she originally wanted to help Ye Lingfeng, but she didn't expect that not only did she fail to help, but she actually harmed Ye Lingfeng.
"Needless to say, I know that Ye Lingfeng will understand your good intentions, but you have to pay attention in the future. Sometimes, more people may not necessarily be good, but at this time, more people do work. Please inform you as soon as possible. People from the family, please come, I will also inform the people in the Su family that things are going to change in Xuzhou."
Seeing this, Su Yan held Shangguan Ruer tightly in his arms and comforted her softly.
At this time, Shangguan Ruer, he could understand and felt very sorry for her. He didn't mention anything about what happened before, but let Shangguan Ruer continue to help Ye Lingfeng.
"Okay, let's go back now." Shangguan Ruer buried her head in Su Yan's arms and said softly, letting Su Yan hold her like this.
When Su Yan saw this and heard the words, his face showed a proud look, and he immediately left here with Shangguan Ru'er in his arms.
After Ye Lingfeng left here, he didn't stop at all along the way. Instead, he plunged directly into the Tianyun Mountains, even spending his mana to perform the teleportation technique twice in a row.
Because along the way, he unexpectedly found that there was always a strange atmosphere following him.
But no matter how he released the School of Spiritual Consciousness, he still couldn't find the result, which made him very uneasy. Therefore, he had to rush back to the depths of Tianyun Mountains in the shortest possible time regardless of the consequences of consuming mana.
After all, deep in the Tianyun Mountains, there are monsters that are equivalent to the cultivation level of humans during the Tribulation Period.
The existence of such a level monster is enough to stop many people, but Ye Lingfeng relies on his powerful teleportation skills to hide here, which is really annoying.
If this were known to others, they would be so angry that they would vomit blood!
However, Ye Lingfeng didn't know that a catastrophe caused by him was about to come.
