It's no surprise that everyone wants to cultivate immortality. Chen Zhou was naturally no exception.

Su Feng knew that Chen Zhou had such feelings, so he must be feeling a little disappointed to see this scene. Even a child can cultivate immortality, but he is so old and still has no trace of true qi.

Su Feng suddenly understood Chen Zhou's sadness.

"Let's leave as soon as possible, Brother Sufeng," Chen Zhou said sadly, hoping to urge Sufeng to take him away quickly.

“Alright. Once we pass this grove, we’ll reach the sect’s back gate. From there, the path leads down the mountain. Follow me.” Su Feng said, quickening his pace as he led Chen Zhou.

The two passed through the back door safely and began their descent down the mountain.

However, the path down the mountain was not smooth; it was even more winding, with no sign of a road ahead. Chen Zhou had to follow Su Feng closely to figure out which way to go. Otherwise, he would be wandering around like a headless fly.

This was the first time Chen Zhou had encountered such a mountain road since he started climbing. The road was rugged and winding, just like a series of reclining dragons.

Chen Zhou then understood the true meaning behind why this mountainous area was called the Wolong Mountain Area.

"Huff, huff, huff..." Chen Zhou was panting heavily. He had been relying solely on physical strength to travel this far, and even with his excellent physical condition, he couldn't sustain such a long journey. Moreover, Chen Zhou was now feeling an inexplicable unease. Just then, he saw something pitch black rushing towards Su Feng!

Chen Zhou had excellent eyesight, and he immediately stopped and looked closely. It was indeed a dart!

Moreover, Chen Zhou clearly saw the pattern on the dart, which was exactly the same pattern he had seen on Su Cang's face and on that flag! It was the symbol of the Su Long Sect! That dart came from the Su Long Sect!

"Brother Su Feng! There's a hidden weapon! Get out of the way!" Chen Zhou shouted immediately. Su Feng, who was walking briskly ahead, looked to the side upon hearing the shout and immediately spotted the dart flying towards him. He quickly dodged it. At the same time, Su Feng also caught the flying dart with one hand.

Seeing everything unfolding before him, Chen Zhou immediately sensed that something was amiss. The Su Long Sect appeared perfectly harmonious, yet there was such a power struggle brewing within? Why would that person want to assassinate Su Feng?

A number of questions suddenly popped into Chen Zhou's mind, and the person who carried out the assassination was very likely related to the unease in Chen Zhou's heart!

However, the more Chen Zhou thought about it, the more something seemed off. Why did the dart used for the assassination look so strange? Logically speaking, a hidden weapon should kill with one strike. In terms of force and power, even if the hidden weapon hit Su Feng, it shouldn't be enough to kill him.

Moreover, Su Feng was able to catch the hidden weapon with his bare hands without caring whether it was poisoned or not, which was quite unbelievable.

"Sound of the wind!"

Just as Chen Zhou was still wondering, a clear female voice came from afar, and then a female figure appeared in Chen Zhou's sight.

This is a woman wearing a light green short jacket on top, a lemon-colored silk brocade skirt with cross-stitching, and a light pink straw-dyed shawl. Her hair is tied in a neat ponytail, adorned with a white dragon-shaped hairpin. She wears polished dragon-shaped earrings, a dragon-shaped bracelet on her slender, alabaster hand, and an antique white half-moon water ripple sash around her waist, with a begonia-shaped gold dragon-patterned sachet hanging from it. She wears ordinary long boots.

Chen Zhou could see the woman's attire from a distance, but as she approached, he could finally see her face clearly.

She had a rosy almond-shaped face, a pair of sleepy, beautiful eyes, and long, flowing, black hair that reached her shoulders. She was truly a beauty that could rival the most beautiful women in history.

Moreover, Chen Zhou could clearly sense the fluctuations of true energy within her body. These fluctuations were extremely dense, even surpassing those of Su Feng! Chen Zhou was currently unable to use his true energy, so he naturally couldn't detect her cultivation level. However, it wasn't hard to guess that her cultivation level was definitely above Su Feng's!

Then, the two hugged each other tightly.

"Wo Yuan!"

Su Feng uttered the woman's name, his voice filled with sweetness, instantly making Chen Zhou a shining light bulb beside them, illuminating their sweetness.

"Ah, this..."

Just moments ago, Chen Zhou had meticulously deduced the internal conflicts within the Su Long Sect, thinking he was almost certain of the truth. But his guesses were completely wrong! What he witnessed was this very scene.

"We agreed to leave at noon, why are you in such a hurry?" Su Feng's tension and anxiety vanished instantly, and he sweetly asked the woman named Wo Yuan.

Hearing their words, Chen Zhou could roughly guess why Su Feng was so nervous.

So the two were planning to elope?!

"I tracked you all the way to the back mountain and found you on your way down. Now that their spies are gone, we can easily meet up and leave directly down the mountain," Wo Yuan explained. The two remained sweetly embracing, unwilling to separate, as if they had been apart for days.

“But I still have to escort this young man down the mountain. This young man has a remarkable background, and I must help him.” Su Feng said solemnly, now that Chen Zhou had become a burden.

“We can definitely help him! We can only leave when we reach the foot of the mountain,” Wo Yuan said slowly.

"Mm!" Su Feng replied emphatically, and then the two finally separated. Su Feng tightly grasped Wo Yuan's hand with one hand and turned to look at Chen Zhou.
