Chapter 1967 In a Hurry to Leave

"If you ask me, you're just too nervous. Where did this place come from? Look, it's all empty. It's probably because you're too nervous. Why don't we relax a bit? You need to relax while working to experience the joy of life."

"Stop being silly, someone's come in. Look around carefully." The man scolded him and said something that surprised Xu Yuehuai. Although she had moved quickly when she raised her hand, she was far away from him and it was impossible for him to feel the wind.

A small coincidence was enough for him to sense that someone was around. This person was definitely not an ordinary person; they must have many secrets. Xu Yuehuai quietly moved to the side, her eyes warily watching the direction they were heading. Every step she took avoided their path, perfectly circling around them.

"There's no one here. Maybe you're mistaken. Why don't we go back and keep watch? I won't say I need to rest anymore. Stop bothering me." The other person felt that he was just deliberately leading him in circles and didn't genuinely want to find someone. He just thought he had been too lazy and wanted to give him some exercise.

The man in front of him found it strange, but now the problem had also arisen here. There was no one here at all, so he had no excuse to refute it. He returned to the front of the black hole. The person under the black cloak was still puzzled, and a pair of exposed eyes frantically scanned the ground.

Xu Yuehuai frowned as she looked at the black hole in front of her. It seemed to be a huge trap. It was precisely because of the appearance of this trap that everyone felt that this place was very important. In reality, this place was just an insignificant little place. To say that it was important was not at all, but to say that it was unimportant would be too hasty.

Xu Yuehuai didn't move. She wasn't sure what had caused her to move just now. Was it that the person had really sensed her presence, or... was it the black hole in front of her that was causing the trouble?

When Xu Yuehuai looked up at the black hole, she felt an evil smile appear in the middle of it. This smile seemed to be mocking her, implying that she couldn't catch her, that she had no ability at all, and that she was extremely arrogant.

Xu Yuehuai was not affected by this thing. She calmly looked at the inhuman creature in front of her, raised her hand and gave it the middle finger as a sign of mockery.

As if understanding that Xu Yuehuai was mocking him, the black hole's surrounding black energy began to surge, carrying an air of anger and resentment, and rushed towards Xu Yuehuai.

Xu Yuehua instinctively wanted to raise her hand to defend herself, but there were still two people here. If they found out and started fighting, it would inevitably attract attention. She lowered her hand, her eyes calm and composed. The moment the dark figure came over, she quickly dodged and moved two or three meters away from her previous position.

The black hole, having missed its target, looked somewhat exasperated. It glared at Xu Yuehuai, stomped its feet in place, and Zhou Shen's black aura intensified.

Xu Yuehuai looked at the two people standing there. Neither of them had noticed the black aura here; only she could see it. Xu Yuehuai pursed her lips, so it wasn't that she had exposed herself earlier, but rather that the black aura in front of her had maliciously fanned the air around their ears to let them know that someone had entered.

After figuring it out, Xu Yuehuai smiled faintly, her face showing indifference. Her eyes, which were fixed on the dark aura in front of her, were filled with mockery, as if to say, "You're just a piece of trash. You can't even catch me."

The black energy surged forth, rushing towards Xu Yuehuai, intending to bring her down. However, Xu Yuehuai always managed to dodge, giving it no chance whatsoever. This troubled it greatly, and it paced anxiously in place.

Xu Yuehuai neither fought nor played with it, but simply avoided it. The black energy, feeling bored, returned to the black hole, its entire body radiating unhappiness.

When Xu Yuehuai saw him return, she showed no expression, but she breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that she hadn't been exposed.

Since there's nothing here, it's time for her to leave. However, she needs to think about how to leave.

Xu Yuehuai returned to her previous seat, intending to repeat her previous trick, but before she could make a move, a man with an extremely alluring appearance walked in from outside. He was dressed in a black robe and had an unfathomable look in his eyes.

The moment he arrived, the two henchmen rushed over, their speed astounding. "Greetings, sir. Is there anything you need, sir?"

"I just had nothing better to do, so I thought I'd check how well you've guarded this place. Has anyone come in? Has anything gone wrong?" The man's tone rose, and just by listening to that tone, you might not have guessed that he was up to no good.

Xu Yuehuai raised an eyebrow and took two steps to the side. The man's voice sounded very familiar; it was the same voice she had heard outside earlier. So, was this the mastermind? She looked the man up and down a few times, finding nothing particularly special or different about him, except that his aura was rather powerful. Aside from the fact that he was a big shot, she couldn't really detect anything else particularly different about him.

Xu Yuehuai had never seen this man before, and thought he was probably from the ancient clan. Why would the ancient clan do these things? The ancient clan had always maintained a neutral attitude towards the outside world and never cared about these things.

But why has the ancient clan chosen to collude with others? What kind of conditions did they offer?

"No surprise, but we just felt someone come in. The other person was invisible, and neither of us could detect their presence. Please forgive us, sir!" The two men knelt on the ground, one on each side, to show their loyalty. The man reached out and helped them up, his eyes filled with kindness.

"Don't kneel on the ground all the time, it's bad luck. Since you haven't found anyone, you've probably misunderstood. Besides, I can sense its presence in the air. It's probably just bored and wants to play with you. It's nothing important. Go and rest for a while. Someone will come to clean these rooms later for the sect members in front to live in."

"Yes!" The two bowed to the man and turned to leave.

After everyone had completely left, the man arrived in front of the black hole. The surrounding barrier had disappeared. Xu Yuehuai hesitated, wondering whether to leave or stay and see what was going on.

Just as she lifted her foot to leave, the man in front of the black hole suddenly spoke, "You're already here, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
