Tonight feels exceptionally long...

Thirty minutes have passed since the last call. Destruction is much simpler than creation. Just disrupting the trajectory of the Jade Pattern is enough to turn the long-term, painstakingly crafted divination array into chaos.

To give an example, a math problem derived from a dozen or so calculation formulas can be completely destroyed by a single slash.

The woman in the attic frowned and paced back and forth in the room, her phone beeping with disappointment.

"Tsk, what happened? Did we fail?"

The woman murmured, "His affinity with the power of abundance is extremely high. Ordinary Destiny Walkers are no match for him. How could this be?"

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush."

Cheng Ling sat on the sofa, his eyes slightly closed, playing with the walnuts in his hand.

Although he appeared calm and collected, he was actually quite panicked inside.

The woman crossed her arms and glanced at him disdainfully, saying, "Heh, stop pretending. You're probably more anxious than I am, aren't you?"

Cheng Ling snorted and said, "The giant formation is naturally heavily guarded. It will definitely take a long time to get close. Let's wait a little longer. Maybe he will connect soon."

"Hmph, I'll do as you say for a while," the woman said coquettishly.

"If... I mean if, that guy gets exposed, what should we do with this old woman?"

Cheng Ling was somewhat uncertain and asked subconsciously.

The woman stretched and said, "What else can we do? This woman has already seen our faces, so of course we should let her bathe in the blessing of the abundant star god and be reborn."

Cheng Ling nodded without refuting.

Longevity is a blessing; it is their gift.

The longevity elixirs in the secret teachings of the Medicine King are divided into many levels. The longevity elixirs used by these two were of a higher level, which allowed them to control their demonic bodies to a certain extent and convert them into their combat power.

The pills that Ye Mu took were of a lower grade, belonging to the uncontrollable demonic body. Once one fell into it, one would lose all human morality.

Some of these are special pills that, when taken, will directly cause the person to fall into a demonic state and lose their mind.

That can be described as extremely vicious.

Time passed slowly.

In the quiet of the night, the woman finally couldn't hold back any longer.

Recalling that glimpse at the gate the day before yesterday, she felt somewhat uneasy.

She stood up and looked at Cheng Ling, saying, "Cheng Ling, I'm feeling a little unwell. How about we go somewhere else? I... I'm afraid we'll be exposed here?"

"Change the location? What about this old woman? Are you planning to tie her up and book a hotel room for her?"

The woman shook her head and said, "Just kill them."

"Are you crazy? Don't you think you're flashy enough?"

"But... what if that guy is discovered?"

Cheng Ling frowned. It was indeed suspicious that he hadn't been able to contact Yu Zhao for so long.

Just as the two were hesitating, a sudden shout came from downstairs!

"Everyone stay still! Seal off the building!"

Tap tap tap!

The sound of crisp footsteps approached.

Cheng Ling hurriedly looked out the window and was immediately shocked!

"It's the Cloud Cavalry! Damn it! What are they doing here!"

"What!" The woman's voice was filled with surprise and doubt.

"Damn it, why did I have to listen to you! We've waited so long and got nothing, but instead the Cloud Cavalry has arrived!"

The woman cursed as she walked to the window, pushed it open, and looked down!

Cloud Knights, clad in silver armor and wielding long swords, surrounded the entire pavilion in perfect formation!

"Why are there so many people! Where did they all come from?!"

Cheng Ling dared to step out of the room and take a look. A man wearing glasses was leading two Cloud Cavalrymen to inspect each room. They would soon be the ones being investigated!

Immediately, the walnuts in the man's hand fell to the ground. He hurriedly lowered his voice and shouted, "Quick, take that thing and hide!"

Before she could even complain, the woman dragged the unconscious old woman into the bedroom.

Cold sweat trickled down Cheng Ling's forehead. He went to the bathroom to wash his face and forced himself to calm down...

Although the Cloud Cavalry was numerous, he sensed through the power of abundance that only two of them possessed the power of destiny.

In other words, they still have a chance to survive.

Cheng Ling hurriedly found the woman and began to discuss countermeasures.

Someone that big can't possibly hide...

After a brief discussion, the two men decided to kill each other.

The woman glanced at Cheng Ling, a fleeting glint of malice in her eyes.

"Knock knock knock! Cloud Cavalry! Open the gate!"

Cheng Ling took a deep breath, forcing himself to look like a pedantic merchant from the immortal ship, then changed into his pajamas and came to the door, carefully pushing it open.

Cheng Ling forced a smile, bowed, and said, "Oh, sir, please come in."

The Cloud Knight soldiers didn't stand on ceremony and quickly searched the living room after pushing open the door.

"Oh my lords, what are you doing?" Cheng Ling hurriedly tried to stop the two cloud knights, but a tremendous force struck from behind.

"Sir, please don't be nervous, it's just a routine check."

A cold, aloof figure slowly emerged.

Li Yuan walked over carrying a thin blue sword and grabbed Cheng Ling.

Immediately afterwards, he frowned.

Something's not right; the force is a bit off.

After regaining his senses, Cheng Ling said with a bitter expression, "Oh my god, my whole family are good citizens. It's really scary how domineering these soldiers are."

Li Yuandao said, "I am very sorry for the behavior of my soldiers, but please believe that our Cloud Cavalry and Earth Balance Division will not wrong any innocent person."

He paused here.

"Of course, we won't let any bad guys get away with it."

The two cloud cavalrymen had already searched the entire living room but found nothing suspicious.

Just as they were about to head to the bedroom, Cheng Ling hurriedly called them back, forcing out a smile that looked more like a grimace.

"Sir, my wife is inside. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Upon hearing this, the two cloud cavalrymen immediately looked embarrassed and hesitated for a moment.

After all, they can't be blamed. The Cloud Cavalry Army has strict internal laws, and doing this would severely damage its reputation.

Especially in this age of information overload, some unscrupulous media outlets have added fuel to the fire, and rumors have spread like wildfire.

The Yunqi Army had been subjected to this kind of thing before, which made the higher-ups take this matter very seriously.

"I'll do it."

Han Yu walked in, a curved sword tucked into his waistband.

She then gave Cheng Ling a provocative look and said, "Sir, you wouldn't be jealous of women, would you?"

"This..." Seeing Cheng Ling hesitate, Han Yu frowned, vaguely feeling that this guy was up to something. He winked at Li Yuan, then walked gracefully into the bedroom.

Just as she pushed open the door and stepped into the room...

"Snap!"

The lights in the entire building went out instantly.
