Why did he come back here?
Jiang Yun watched in surprise as he was lifted into the hands of a late Yuanying monk, his facial features obscured by spiritual energy.
"what happened?"
Tang Yifan had separated from himself in the Southeast Region, so how could he suddenly appear at the junction of the Northwest Region and the Southwest Region? According to the speed of his golden elixir stage, he would never be able to come back so quickly. It would take at least half a year, not to mention the dangerous journey, which might take even longer.
It turned out that it had only been three months, and the two of them had flown back all the way. What was going on with this guy? There is only half a month difference between him and me. Who is the monk in the late stage of Nascent Soul? The speed is so fast, not much slower than my previous self.
Jiang Yun was confused and followed quietly.
The two of them flew all the way to the depths of the valley. The Biyou Kingdom was vast, and even if there were hundreds of cities in one area, nearly three-quarters of it was still uninhabited barren mountains and wild ridges.
The man carried Tang Yifan and flew for most of the day before landing in a valley.
Jiang Yun hid somewhere in the valley and looked in, only to see a small village in the valley! There are men, women and children in this village, which looks weird and mysterious.
The late Yuanying monk put Tang Yifan down, and the men, women, and children in the village all bowed and saluted when they saw the late Yuanying monk. It was obvious that this monk was not simple.
"Master Jie."
"Master Jie is back."
This late Nascent Soul monk is known as Master Jie.
Tang Yifan next to him opened his eyes and looked around. Surprisingly, he actually knew all the villagers nearby, and everyone greeted them harmoniously.
"Yifan? Real or fake? You have been missing for so many years. If the mage hadn't said you were still alive, we would have thought you were dead."
"Yifan, long time no see. Everyone is worried about you."
"It's good to come back. Yifan can come to my house for dinner later. By the way, where's Xiaolei? Why isn't Xiaolei back?"
Tang Yifan is very close to the people in this village. We are like some small villages or ethnic groups that are very united and care about each other.
"Xiao Lei unfortunately died on that mission." Tang Yifan sighed in despair.
"It's okay, let the mage find you a new demon cultivator partner. If you work for the mage wholeheartedly, the mage will not treat you badly." A villager comforted.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and come with me." Master Jie motioned to the villagers not to block them and let them go about their business. Then he led Tang Yifan to the depths of the village, which was connected to the woods. Bamboo forest, the bamboo forest blocked Jiang Yun's sight, making him unable to see clearly what was going on inside.
"go!"
This had no effect on him, and a very small Shadowless Bee was sent out by him. This shadowless bee only has the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Realm. The queen bee produced one almost instantly, without even consuming any spiritual energy or vitality.
The little bee buzzed in and did not see the two people after entering the bamboo forest.
Just when Jiang Yun was controlling it to search around, a leaf cut off the little bee's body with a swish.
Jiang Yun was silent. He learned from the queen bee that the Shadowless Bee suddenly lost contact, which made him realize that there must be a great secret in this bamboo forest. The reason why Tang Yifan was secretive must have something to do with this place. Otherwise, why would he be captured by the Nanhai Demon Cultivator if he was fine?
The demon cultivators in the South China Sea would definitely not dare to arrest the mainland monks wantonly, otherwise they would arouse the anger of the heavens and the people, and the patrol supervisor would not let them go. Even if the Martial God and the Bihai Immortal Emperor did not take action, the princes of the three southern regions would come forward to control them.
Tang Yifan was able to be caught by the Nanhai Demon Cultivator. Is it such a coincidence? So unlucky?
Looking at the bamboo forest in the distance, he didn't know whether to go in. The bamboo forest didn't look scary, but behind the bamboo forest was connected a forest that blocked his view, which gave him a deep and dangerous feeling.
After thinking about it, he decided to wait and see here first.
In the bamboo forest.
"Master, Tang Yifan has brought it back." Master Jie put his palms together and saluted a figure sitting on a stone bench in front of him.
"Master." Tang Yifan stepped forward excitedly and knelt down on the ground. "Thank you Lord for sending Master Jie to pick me back. Tang Yifan finally sees you, Master!"
The figure slowly stood up.
Light and shadow passed through the bamboo forest, but his upper body could not be seen clearly. The brown coarse cloth clothes and straw sandals could be vaguely seen, and he looked like an ascetic.
"Tang Yifan."
The figure in the bamboo forest asked, "You disappeared for nearly four years. What happened in the meantime? Tell me quickly."
"yes."
Tang Yifan said respectfully, "Haozi and I went out to help the mage find the materials for the sixth spiritual weapon. Unexpectedly, when we found the spiritual bamboo, it was snatched away by a group of demon cultivators. We wanted to follow Go up and help the mage get the item. Unexpectedly, the demon cultivator is actually a shark clan demon cultivator from a famous force in the South China Sea. They are very powerful and we will soon be at a disadvantage."
"The South China Sea Shark Clan..." The corner of Master Jie's mouth next to him twitched, "The South China Sea Shark Clan is one of the top groups of demon cultivators. Not only are their tribesmen powerful, but they are also extremely united. How dare you offend them?"
"Keep talking." The figure in the bamboo forest interrupted Master Ring.
"Yes." Tang Yifan was still kneeling and said, "In the end, only Haozi and I were killed. Seeing that we had no strength to resist, they arrested Haozi and I, preparing to train them and sell them as slaves. Get out. And he gave me and Haozi a divine soul spell to control our life and death."
The man in the bamboo forest raised his hand, and a golden light shone over him.
"You're lying, you don't have any spiritual skills." The man in the bamboo forest said calmly. Master Jie's expression changed and he turned his hand into a knife to cut off Tang Yifan's head.
Just now, he was standing with Tang Yifan, looking like a kind elder. Now he just did it without any hesitation, which showed that his deep thoughts were not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
"no no."
Tang Yifan hurriedly explained, "I was bought by someone, so they gave the Taoist spell in my mind to the person who bought me. It turned out that person was an acquaintance of mine, so he let me go. Then I hurried towards home, thinking it would take more than half a year to come back, but I didn’t expect that not long after I set off, Master Jie came.”
"I noticed his aura of faith and went to find him." Master Jie told the man in the bamboo forest concisely.
"Where is Haozi?" the man in the bamboo forest asked softly.
"Haozi was bought before me. He is strong and can be sold much easier than me." Tang Yifan said tremblingly.
"Haozi is dead." The man in the bamboo forest sighed, "You said you were bought by a friend? What was your friend's name?"
"Jiang Yun."
Tang Yifan said without reservation, "My friend's name is Jiang Yun. He was my former teammate in Ditingyuan when I was in Wushen City. He also happened to go to the East China Sea. When he saw me, he bought me and saved me. In We separated when we were in the southeastern region. He and another friend said that he would take the teleportation array back to the northwest, but he had no money for me to take the teleportation array."
"Is it?"
The man in the bamboo forest slowly walked out, and the sun shone on his face.
Only at this moment can we clearly see that this mage is actually a monk wearing half of his cassock. What is a little different is that this monk is naked with half of his upper body, and his well-developed muscles give people the illusion of being in physical training.
"Jie, you are being followed."
"Ah?" Master Jie said in surprise, "It's impossible. I've always been careful. Unless the other party is much stronger than me, I won't be able to feel it."
"It's okay. I've found him. He's a guy in the early stage of the infant spirit." As the mage spoke, his face didn't show any embarrassment or fluctuation. Instead, there was a faint smile. "There haven't been any new people in our village for a long time. Since there are new people, If your friends want to join, then you can go and have a look.”
"Yes." Master Jie cupped his fists and said respectfully.
"You should go too, Tang Yifan, to see if he is the friend you said he was." The mage said and waved his hand, and the surrounding bamboo forest changed. When the two looked up again, the mage had disappeared.
"Master Jie, do you want to join other masters?" Tang Yifan hesitated.
After all, the opponent is a guy in the early stage of Nascent Soul, and Master Jie is only in the late Nascent Soul stage, so he may not be his opponent.
"No need." Master Jie shook his head and without further explanation, turned around and walked towards the outside of the bamboo forest. Tang Yifan followed without hesitation.
The two walked all the way out of the village.
Stand at the entrance of the village.
"I would also like to ask my secret friends to come out and meet me. My master has invited me." Master Jie shouted loudly.
"Secret friend?"
The villagers passing by in the distance were talking a lot, and each looked up at the surrounding mountains and cliffs. There were mortals and practitioners among these villagers, but most of them were in the acquired realm, and the monks at the golden elixir stage could not be seen.
Jiang Yun frowned.
As expected, the Shadowless Bee was discovered by the opponent, and he didn't know whether the opponent was an enemy or a friend. If he were a monk in the realm of Kongming, he would be in danger.
After hesitating for a few moments, he dodged and flew out.
No matter what the other party's purpose is, since they sincerely invite them, how can I, a Yingling cultivator, be afraid? At worst, it's a fight. I have dragon transformation, a sword soul, a blood soul, and a shadowless queen. Even if he really can't be beaten, he can still escape with violent blood escape, so he has nothing to fear.
"Jiang Yun! It's really you!"
What he didn't expect was that as soon as he appeared at the entrance of the village, Tang Yifan frowned and said, "Why are you following me?"
He recognized the blood on Jiang Yun's body. He was quite familiar with this stuff, so he immediately recognized Jiang Yun.
Looking at this ungrateful former friend who still questioned him, Jiang Yunli ignored him and turned to Master Jie on the other side and said, "Lead the way."
"Senior, please come this way."
Master Jie pushed Tang Yifan aside and signaled him not to block the way. Tang Yifan did not dare to disobey at all, and stood aside obediently, like a servant who did not dare to resist at all.
This scene made Jiang Yun's expression change.
He obviously saved his life and was a strong man in the infant spirit stage. However, Tang Yifan not only ignored the friendship and life-saving grace in the past, but also questioned himself without showing any signs of timidity.
On the contrary, he treated this guy in the late Nascent Soul stage with utmost respect and did not dare to show any dissatisfaction even if he was pushed away casually. That kind of respect from the inside out was as if he had been brainwashed by this master of discipline. This feeling is like the relationship between the Shadowless Queen Bee and herself!
Something's wrong!
This village is full of weirdness. The villagers in the distance are looking at him curiously and warily. He looks around. For some reason, he always feels that the eyes of these villagers, including Tang Yifan and Master Jie, express the same kind of light. , very weird.
He followed Master Jie through the streets and found that the village was quite big.
There are some canteens and schools inside, and many facilities are available. It is like a simplified version of the city. It is obviously a village smaller than the town, but it has many more things than the town does not have. Small but complete!
"I have never heard of such a village in the mountains before."
He asked, staring at Master Jie's back, "Your master must not be an unknown person. I wonder which fellow Taoist or senior he is?"
"Senior, you will know when you see the master later."
Master Jie's chuckle revealed absolute confidence, as if Jiang Yun was definitely no better than his master in his eyes. This made Jiang Yun feel solemn. Speaking of which, the other party's cultivation level was probably much higher than his own!
If this is the case, I am afraid that my trip will be disastrous!
At this time, when he looked at the bamboo forest in the distance, it looked like a tiger with its fangs spread out, making it difficult to see what was inside. It was full of silence and weirdness.
Do you want to go in?
Or run away now?
He hesitated. If he wanted to leave now, he still had a chance to leave.
