In the cave at the northeast corner of Mingyang River, You Yaqin and Lin Qi were sitting on rocks, with the three disciples still tied up in front of their feet.
Lin Qi looked up at the blue bird flying out of the distant forest, and said calmly: "Are you sure we won't be discovered here? Those three people are all real warriors."
You Yaqin smiled charmingly, staring at her fingertips, "Don't worry, although the little girl is not very skilled in martial arts, she is very capable. This cave has been covered up by me, and the three of them cannot find it."
"So what happened to Su Xing?"
"I have used all five stand-in charms half an hour ago, and they are distributed in five locations in the Mingyang River. One of them is the area where Guan Yan'er disappeared. As long as he tries to find Guan Yan'er's whereabouts, he will
Will definitely take the bait."
"Oh, that's good."
Lin Qi sneered, his expression became expectant, and he whispered: "Give Su Xing one more day, if he doesn't show up by this time tomorrow, we will kill these three people."
Guan Yan'er, who was lying on the ground with her eyes blindfolded, her mouth glued, and her hands and feet tied, was motionless at first, but she began to struggle after hearing the word Su Xing.
"Bang!"
She happened to be lying next to You Yaqin's raised thin legs. Seeing Guan Yan'er start to struggle, You Yaqin glanced at her coldly and kicked the girl in purple in the abdomen with the instep of her foot.
A whimper came from Guan Yan'er's sealed mouth, and she stopped moving immediately.
"whispering sound."
You Yaqin made a sound of disdain, and her eyes returned to her beautifully shining nails.
…
At this time, in the desert on the east bank of the Mingyang River, Su Xing, wearing a yellow robe, was flying quickly towards the center of the desert.
A few dozen feet behind him, Fang Xueyu, who was wearing a purple robe, was maintaining a distance that he thought would be difficult for the other party to notice.
However, she did not follow him for long. In less than a quarter of an hour, she saw Su Xing suddenly stop beside a huge stone standing in the yellow sand.
She paused suddenly, her eyes glanced around in a panic, and hurriedly hid behind a thick green plant, peeking out.
"Stop hiding, come out, I know you are following me all the way."
To Fang Xueyu's expectation, a faint voice came from Su Xing's mouth, whose back was turned to her.
The strong voice traveled a distance of more than ten feet, and was completely unaffected by the gusts of wind rolling in the desert.
Fang Xueyu bit her lip, walked around from behind the green plants with heavy steps, and slowly came to Su Xing.
Su Xing turned to face Fang Xueyu and said quietly: "Why are you following me?"
"I..." Fang Xueyu looked hesitant, pursed her lips and hesitated for a few moments before finally lowering her head and saying regretfully: "I am half responsible for Yan'er's disappearance, so I wanted to find her to apologize."
"I understand your feelings, but you also know that the road ahead is dangerous, and I am only searching in the direction where she disappeared. Whether she can be found remains to be seen."
"Aren't you the same as me who only have the cultivation level of Huayuan Realm? Then the road ahead is equally dangerous for you, so why take the risk to find Yan'er?"
Facing Fang Xueyu's question, Su Xing narrowed his eyes and remained silent for a few moments, then said calmly: "Miss Yan'er once gave me a priceless treasure. I can't let her down."
"It seems you don't know yet."
"Don't know what?"
"It's nothing, time is tight, let's go quickly." Fang Xueyu shook her head and raised her legs to move forward.
"Wait a minute," Su Xing stretched out his hand to stop Fang Xueyu, "You insist on following me, but you should be mentally prepared. If you go a few miles further, you may encounter a level seven ferocious beast."
"I know."
Fang Xueyu curled her lips with a bored expression, dissatisfied with Su Xing's repeated nagging.
Seeing this, Su Xing stopped talking, turned around and continued walking towards the depths of the desert.
Su Xing, who was originally planning to search for Guan Yan'er's whereabouts alone, now had a girl who was at the Yuan Realm beside him, forcing him to spend some energy on protecting Fang Xueyu while distracting his spiritual consciousness.
In the desert, two figures, one yellow and one purple, moved towards the depths at extremely fast speeds.
…
One day later, Su Xing and Fang Xueyu had completely crossed the desert and arrived at the entrance to the dense forest at the northeast corner of the Mingyang River.
Along the way, the two of them encountered several powerful level six ferocious beasts, but they were all killed by the two of them working together.
As the most powerful new generation disciple of Xuanguang Taoist Academy, Fang Xueyu has now condensed her fourth spiritual pattern, and her strength is already at the peak of Huayuan Realm. She is even stronger than she was at the Demon Slaying Festival.
A bit more powerful.
When he took action to kill the ferocious beast, Su Xing only showed his strength that was consistent with the opponent's and did not use all means.
For him, the hidden true strength is like a sharp dagger hiding in the shadows, which will deliver a fatal blow only when necessary.
According to his spiritual search, Guan Yan'er's last breath was in this dense forest.
The deeper he went along the way, the more strange he felt about the matter. Three disciples disappeared in a row, and two of them happened to be members of You Yaqin and Lin Qi's team.
He originally thought that Lin Qi and You Yaqin had known each other for a long time, but they just deliberately concealed this relationship.
Now, he felt more and more that Guan Yaner's disappearance was related to the two of them.
Maybe this is an opportunity to expose the conspiracy behind Lynch.
Every time this conjecture appeared in Su Xing's mind, his eyes would be filled with fire, and his heart would be beating fast under his chest.
It can be said that exposing Lin Qi's true face is his second goal in practicing in the outer mountains of Wanjian Sect.
And now, he feels that he is very close to this goal!
"Follow me."
Hearing what Su Xing said, Fang Xueyu, who was following behind him, curled his lips and rolled his eyes.
This guy is obviously not very strong, but he always likes to say things that only senior brothers and sisters like to say.
It was dark in the dense forest, with birds hanging on the branches and chirping, the leaves rustling among the trees in the gentle wind, and the sounds of poisonous insects and strange snakes climbing among the vines.
The strange and mysterious environment made Su Xing and Fang Xueyu feel that they were back in Duanyang Forest, and they couldn't help but tense up and become extremely cautious.
The two of them stepped over broken branches and vines, and unknowingly reached the center of the dense forest.
And just when Su Xing was about to spread his spiritual consciousness again to explore Guan Yan'er's aura, Fang Xueyu beside him suddenly exclaimed:
"Yan'er!"
Su Xing was stunned and looked in the direction of Fang Xueyu's line of sight, only to see a purple shadow suddenly appear in the jungle in front of him.
"Miss Yan'er!"
The two looked at each other and saw shock and affirmation in each other's eyes.
The call echoed high in the dense forest, sending out waves of echoes, but it did not stop the shadow not far away, but instead moved deeper into the depths.
Su Xing and Fang Xueyu did not dare to hesitate any longer. If they missed this opportunity, they would not know how much energy they would spend looking for each other.
The two of them immediately injected vitality into their legs and quickly followed in the direction where the purple shadow disappeared.
A quarter of an hour later, there was a "swish" sound, and two figures suddenly rushed out of the dense forest surrounded by vines.
Su Xing and the two broke through the tangled branches and vines in the forest, and their eyes suddenly opened up.
The endless plains were immediately revealed in front of the two of them, but the purple shadow from before disappeared in an unknown direction.
"Where did Yan'er go?"
Fang Xueyu's face suddenly became panicked, and he looked around eagerly, but could not find a single figure on the plain.
Su Xing finally noticed something was wrong. He pondered for a moment, emitted his spiritual consciousness, and swept across the plain, but could not detect any human breath.
To his surprise, the spiritual consciousness had just flown a distance of three miles, but it hit some barrier and fell back.
However, when he looked far and wide, he could only see endless plains and towering spiky grass, not even a shadow of anything resembling a barrier.
"It's a little weird here." Su Xing murmured.
"Yan'er must have gone to the front."
Fang Xueyu did not take Su Xing's words seriously and walked forward.
"Miss Fang, wait!"
When Su Xing came back from his thoughts, he found that Fang Xueyu had already walked dozens of steps away. He quickly let out an exclamation, but he didn't stop the other party at all.
At this moment, a shocking loud noise suddenly came from the ears of the two of them.
Su Xing was slightly startled when he saw a dark shadow suddenly popping out of the spiky grass in front of Fang Xueyu not far away.
At the same time, the sky above suddenly became dark.
