Mengzhen and his party initially followed Gu Zheng's instructions and stayed directly in the city, but later they found some unfamiliar faces who seemed to be inquiring about them. At Tang Li's suggestion, they then left the city directly and arrived not far away.
Find an underground place to hide anywhere.
After several days of observation, they also knew who was looking for them, it was the group of people from Yaomen.
"What on earth do you think they are doing? Is it possible that there were some accidents over there in Gu Zheng?"
In the temporary cave underground, as a low-level disciple of the Medicine Sect left not far from above, Tang Li couldn't help but say.
"There shouldn't be any problems in the ancient war. It's possible that the other party wants to find us and use us as hostages." Compared with Tang Li, who was a little uneasy, Meng Zhen was much calmer.
"The people coming from the other side are too weak. Even if they capture us, they won't send some immortals." Tang Li disagreed, but he didn't know what the other party meant.
Normally speaking, if the other party has already made conditions and wants them to leave, why would they provoke them again? Isn't it unnecessary?
"Who knows what the devil is thinking. If the other party regrets and doesn't hand it over in the end, I think it's normal. We'll wait until Gu Zheng comes back. Didn't he tell us before that we should not act rashly no matter what, as long as we stay safe and stay within the confines of this place
, there is no danger." Meng Zhen said lazily.
"Well, so many days have passed, and it's really worrying to have no accurate information." Tang Li sighed, and then sat on the ground next to him.
The environment here is not good at all, the space is not big, and because it is close to the sea and it is extremely humid, I always feel a sense of dampness, which makes me feel even more angry.
"It's really annoying. It's like playing in the water." A little boy lay on the ground in a big suit, muttering with his eyes blank.
"Mao Zhen, you and I remember that you stayed down there for such a long time, why can't you stay there for only ten days?" Meng Zhen said to Mao Zhen.
"Yeah, I don't know either. At first I thought it didn't matter if I could stay for hundreds of years." Mao Zhen sat up and scratched his fluffy hair, also a little puzzled.
"Forget it, I'd better take a nap, it feels like time passes too slowly, and I don't know when Mr. Gu will come back."
Mao Zhen didn't bother to think about it, and his whole body turned into a brush again and fell on Meng Zhen's hand.
Mengzhen held the brush close to her body and was just about to say something to Tang Li when she found that Tang Li raised a finger and made a hissing gesture to him. His head was fixed in the air and his ears moved slightly, as if he was talking.
Listen to something.
Meng Zhen saw this and walked over lightly. At the same time, he also pricked up his ears to hear what was going on, but he did not hear any movement. There was only the sound of gentle breeze blowing outside.
"Did you hear that? It seems like my daughter is calling me!" Tang Li said solemnly.
"Don't be fooled. Your daughter has been captured by the other party. How could she be released? They are deliberately luring us." When Meng Zhen heard this, he was suddenly startled and immediately sent a message to persuade her.
"I know, but what if she sneaks out? She is very smart." Tang Li murmured.
"Oops, he was tricked."
Seeing that Tang Li didn't seem to listen to his words, he also understood something. The other party's previous search was not in vain. They had determined their location using methods they didn't know, and they were seducing Tang Li based on his weaknesses. See
He obviously seemed successful.
Immediately, Mengzhen slapped Tang Li directly on the body. Obviously, the other party would not listen to the advice anymore, so it was better to subdue him first.
Tang Li, who was not deeply trapped at this time, was still struggling in his heart. He didn't care about Meng Zhen next to him. He didn't even notice when she took action, so he was knocked unconscious by Meng Zhen very smoothly.
"fine!"
Mengzhen checked Tang Li's condition and felt relieved in his heart. Even if the other party was unprepared, he was worried about injuring him. In any case, he was also Gu Zheng's friend.
After settling down Tang Li, Mengzhen did not go out and continued to wait on the side. To be honest, with her strength, she was not afraid of those people even outside. She only followed to prevent Gu Zheng from causing some trouble.
Tang Li stayed in this narrow place outside.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Tang Li, who had been knocked unconscious by Mengzhen, also woke up from his coma. He looked at Mengzhen sitting beside him, remembered what happened before, stood up and came to him to apologize in shame.
"I'm sorry, I was confused without knowing it."
"It's okay. Next we have to leave here and move to another place." Mengzhen waved his hand, stood up and patted the fallen soil on his body.
"Okay, shall we return to the city?" Tang Li also knew at this time that if he didn't leave here, he might still be tricked, so he put forward his own suggestions.
"No need for now."
Meng Zhen hadn't answered yet, but as a figure appeared, the other party answered for them.
"Old Bear!"
As soon as Meng Zhen saw the person, he immediately shouted in surprise.
"Has the matter been resolved?" Tang Li also asked impatiently, his eyes lit up.
"Not yet, things have changed, but don't worry, Gu Zheng has been prepared, just wait for a while." Mr. Xiong first comforted Tang Li. He also knew that Tang Li cared about his daughter, and then
Said, "Now Gu Zheng, let us take you to a safe place, at least the other side's minions will not be able to get close there."
"Where is it?" Meng Zhen asked subconsciously.
"When you go there, you will know that Gu Zheng is still waiting for you there."
Mr. Xiong didn't say much, as she said, you will understand naturally after you get there.
"Mr. Xiong, there are enemies surrounding us outside, should we avoid it?" Mengzhen thought of the situation outside and quickly explained the previous situation.
"No need, the other party had already run away when I came." Xiong Lao thought about it with regret. After he sensed a trace of the devil's breath, the other party also discovered her and ran away immediately.
But she knew that it was just a clone, and she could easily defeat him. It was a pity that she would have been sneaky if she had known it. Who would have thought that the other party would sneak out? If she killed the clone of the other party, the main body would be severely injured.
It will be easier to deal with him later
Just after Mr. Xiong started to return with Mengzhen and his party, new changes had taken place on the island where the Medicine Gate was located.
On both sides of the island, thousands of sea people with different cultivation levels have already surrounded the entire island with various weapons in hand.
Outside the island, a huge formation has risen, completely isolating them from the outside. As for the previous fog, it has completely shrunk inside the island, and the situation inside can no longer be seen from the outside.
The figures of a man and a woman stood high in the sky, trying to find some weak points here, but for a long time they found nothing.
"It seems that the other party has known about our arrival for a long time, and the reaction is quite fast." The woman's eyes turned outside indifferently, looking at the calm scene around her, and uttered a sentence directly.
"Third Princess, do we want to attack now?" The man next to him answered immediately.
"Wait a minute, look below, it seems someone is coming out." The third princess raised her hand slightly to stop Commander He's order.
Commander He looked down again. A figure had flown out from inside and was approaching them. A closer look revealed that it was Nephritis, the sect leader of this island, whom he had communicated with before.
"I've met the third princess, Commander He."
Sen Yan came to the two of them and gave them a small blessing.
"Master Sen Sect, do you think your wings are stiff? Before you kidnapped some unworthy sea tribesmen, I didn't bother you. Now you dare to offend even my people!" The third princess looked at Sen Yan and said directly
Asked rudely.
Commander He also narrowed his eyes and looked at her with a cold light, as if if the other party couldn't explain why, he would take action immediately.
In a competition of strength, the other party cannot be their opponent.
"Listen to me, Third Princess." Sen Yan was not afraid at all, and still looked at the Third Princess with her calm eyes, "This is completely a misunderstanding. You also know that the elixir we refined has some special effects.
You need something special, you know that."
Commander He also nodded after hearing this. He also knew this, but because the things the other party provided were very good, it was worth paying a little in comparison. Although it was unreasonable to betray his subordinates like this, the amount the other party needed only lasted a month.
Two or three, and they don't know how many sea tribesmen die every month due to other reasons, so they don't care.
"Of course I won't object to what was agreed upon at the beginning, but if you occasionally touch other people, it's not part of the agreement." Commander He saw that the third princess didn't say anything, so he intervened.
"Yes, I admit that, but none of the people I found are your people."
Hearing Sen Yan's sophistry, the third princess immediately interrupted the other party, "As long as the creatures in the South China Sea are within our jurisdiction, especially if you touched one of my subordinates, it can be branded with my unique mark.
You dare to do this and you don’t even care about me."
"I'm really sorry about this. By the time I discovered something was wrong, the other party had already been sacrificed. I had already tied up the elder who led the team. I will hand it over to you later and let you do whatever you want. And as a discourtesy, this precious elixir is
Compensation, guarantee there will be no next time." Sen Yan took out a small transparent box without any panic.
"Please accept it!"
The whole body is surrounded by seven colors, and even though there is a layer of restriction, you can smell the strong fragrance of flowers. The whole body seems to be a little lighter. Just from the appearance, it is not an ordinary person.
Commander He glanced at the third princess, stepped forward, took out the box, and handed it to the third princess. The latter opened the box directly and took out the pill, which was no bigger than her index finger.
"This is a Huamandan that is very difficult for us to refine. As the name suggests, it is like a flower in full bloom. It provides a steady stream of power, enough to support a peak Daluo for three battles, and it can also heal ordinary injuries." Sen on the side.
Yan explained with a smile.
"I don't know if the third princess is satisfied. If she is not satisfied, give us some time. Naturally, we will have something to offer to express our apology."
This elixir is not an ordinary way to heal injuries and save lives, but is used in battles. It can be said that its importance is even higher than those. With it, you have room for maneuver in the face of extremely dangerous battles.
"Where's that elder?" The third princess put the elixir back, closed it, and threw it directly to Commander He next to her. She raised her eyes and asked, without saying whether she forgives him or not.
"Wait a moment, I'll call someone up." Seeing this, Sen Yan probably satisfied the other party, and her voice became more respectful.
It wasn't that she wanted to capture that sea tribe, it was because the Demon God needed something from her in order to refine something, and it was absolutely impossible for the Demon God to let go.
Originally, he had continued to wait for a long time, until the other party had enough trust foundation. Now, it was a bit risky, but the appearance of Gu Zheng and the others made the demon god feel more dangerous. Even with the previous promise, he did not fully believe it.
.
He had a way of breaking even a mere oath, so he ordered the arrest of the other party and even sent some people to lure Tang Li away, but he allocated part of his strength to take action himself.
After seeing the third princess nodding, Sen Yan directly released a flexible and spiritual bird, which flew rapidly downwards and rushed into the island surrounded by restrictions. Soon a figure flew up from below.
This is a controlled elder, but his strength is only in the late Golden Immortal stage, and he is already very powerful among humans. At this time, he came up with a look of guilt on his face.
"I'm sorry, Master Sen." He apologized to Sen Yan as soon as he came up, then looked at the third princess and bent down, "Before, I accidentally caught someone I shouldn't have caught, and I didn't have any objections to killing or cutting them.
, please don’t implicate our medicine sect.”
"If you kill our people, you will definitely die. Let me deal with you personally. As for the medicine sect, let's let it go for now." The third princess pointed at him and said unceremoniously.
"Happy life for life!"
The elder immediately relaxed his whole body. In order to avoid misunderstanding, he just maintained his ability to float in the air and walked towards the third princess.
When the other party came closer, the third princess stretched out her hand to grab the other party's neck like lightning. At the same time as she acted, Commander He also stretched out his hand and grabbed Sen Yan.
"Bang"
Commander He's movements were very fast, but a small black flag was even faster. When his attack came to Sen Yan, it had already blocked it automatically.
Xiaoban only stood in a stalemate for a moment, and then was knocked away. However, this little time was enough for Senyan to react, and she immediately retreated backwards, avoiding Commander He's next attack.
"Third Princess, what do you mean?" Not far away, Sen Yan immediately picked up her weapon, guarded it in front of her, and questioned the Third Princess.
"It's not interesting. Although I am very interested in your things, you should never kill my people. This has violated my bottom line, so Nanhai cannot tolerate you. I'm sorry."
The third princess grabbed the Yao Sect elder's neck, and the latter had fallen into a coma. Although he said sorry, his tone and expression did not mean any apology at all.
"Then you still want my pill." Sen Yan said angrily, and at the same time, she slowly retreated back.
"This is just compensation. If your medicine sect is completely disbanded, wouldn't it be better if all of you become my prisoners and work for us?" the third princess chuckled.
"So that's what you had in mind." Only then did Senyan understand why the other party turned against her so quickly. It turned out that she was interested in their family background.
"That's right, you are too valuable but don't have the corresponding strength."
In fact, even if the other party didn't rob her of her people, she would still find an opportunity to come here, and the other party gave her a perfect opportunity at this time, so she took advantage of it. Naturally, she wanted to control this sweet potato.
After finishing speaking, the third princess exerted force in her hands.
"Bang"
The elder's body did not die as she expected, but the whole body suddenly expanded and exploded into a ball of black mist, shrouding the third princess inside.
"What's this!"
The third princess rushed out of the black mist in a panic. At this time, her beautiful face was covered with a layer of black energy. Faced with the unexpected explosion, she was hit instantly without expecting it.
"Hmph, I knew you had bad intentions this time." Sen Yan, who was retreating in the distance with an angry look on her face, turned her anger into joy and shouted in this direction.
"What is that? Get the antidote quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being rude." Commander He immediately shouted angrily at Sen Yan.
"Don't bother trying to undo it. Once this poison is in your body, even you can't get rid of it. Do you feel a little weak and dizzy? No one in the world can undo this antidote except me." Sen Yan
He snorted coldly.
How could she not see the opponent's formation? However, if the opponent really let them go, she would not use this method.
Of course, with her analysis and the poison refined by the devil, she had nothing to deal with the third princess.
"How are you? Third princess! Are you okay?" Commander He quickly returned to the third princess and asked anxiously.
"It's not much of a hindrance."
After a moment of slowing down, the third princess' body was flashing with light, and the darkness on her face only dimmed for a moment before she spoke, but it was obvious that she was just trying to force herself out.
"Let's go first and let them go for now."
Commander He was startled by the third princess's words. Knowing that the situation was not optimistic, he glanced at Sen Yan over there, and then helped the third princess retreat into the sea.
As the two people retreated, the army surrounding the island also disappeared into the water one by one. In the blink of an eye, all threats to the Medicine Sect disappeared.
When Sen Yan saw this scene, she also stepped back, knowing that this place would be safe in a short time. The other party would not take action here until the toxins in the body were removed.
As for the other party's desire to completely unravel it, according to the Demon God, unless they find the pinnacle quasi-sage, they won't be able to clean it up without thousands of years of effort.
At that time, Sen Yan also knew that it would not take that long, at most a thousand years, for the Demon God to recover his cultivation. At that time, he would have enough time to stay or leave.
And that time is when the other party commits to the oath.
"I wonder if you can fulfill my wish before then."
Before entering the island, Sen Yan turned her head and glanced into the distance.
The entire island is still closed. In this case, only entry is allowed and no exit is allowed until the crisis is resolved.
After arriving at his usual place, a faint voice rose in the hall.
"We don't have much time left. Now you have to swallow the elixir for the remaining people and speed up the refining. There are also apprentices you want to train. You should also hurry up. If the other party masters it, it may be faster.
Time, and then your family will be completely reunited."
Senyan nodded silently, and as soon as a switch was touched, a staircase leading down appeared in the corner, and then disappeared here.
