"Master, why are you here?" Lu Yunxi asked casually while eating.

This city is still a bit far from their sect.

"What do you think?" The old man stroked his beard, a look of deep thought in his eyes. "Haven't you noticed any problems these past few days? Your strength should be reaching that level, right?"

"You mean..." Her eyes widened slightly.

"That's right. The masters in our sect used to feel like they were heading for death after reaching the Grandmaster level. But now everyone's feelings have changed! They feel like they can go one step further!" He frowned. "Unfortunately, my abilities are limited, and I still haven't figured it out!"

Feeling the spiritual energy in the air, she paused slightly with her hand holding the skewers.

"Master, if you can't detect anything, then why are you here?"

"How would I know? It's because that weird old man calculated in the house for a few days and wanted to kick us out! Now there is no one left in the sect!" When he said this, his face was full of unhappiness.

After all, he had just been traveling for such a long time and finally returned to the sect. But he was kicked out again at this time, and the old man didn't even tell them what they were doing outside!

Seeing the angry look on his master's face, Lu Yunxi comforted him: "Master, don't be angry, I..."

"Flicker, flicker"

A carrier pigeon suddenly flew over and landed between the two of them, interrupting her.

There was a skewer of roasted lamb on the table. The carrier pigeon opened its round eyes and pecked at it fiercely with its beak.

It seemed to think the taste was very good. It flapped its wings happily and jumped left and right excitedly before it immersed its head in eating the roasted lamb.

Lu Yunxi and her master lowered their heads silently, looking at this carrier pigeon that didn't know what fear was, with a subtle look in their eyes.

"How dare you steal my mutton skewers!" The master spat out the bamboo sticks in his mouth, with a murderous look in his eyes.

He looked up and down at the plump pigeon and suddenly smiled strangely: "Yes, this leg is quite fat, it must taste good!"

The carrier pigeon seemed to understand what he said. It trembled involuntarily and flew away quickly.

"Master, why are you scaring it?" Lu Yunxi covered his forehead and couldn't help shaking his head.

After not seeing him for a while, Master seems to be acting more and more like an old child.

She waved at the carrier pigeon and soothed it for a long time, and finally calmed it down.

It looked at its master cautiously, and when it saw him snort coldly and eat silently without any intention of catching it, it approached Lu Yunxi.

After taking the letter, Lu Yunxi was about to open it, but saw the master's name written on the seal.

She paused and handed the letter to her master.

"Strange! Someone actually wrote to me..." He muttered as he opened the letter. However, after reading it for a while, the smile on his face disappeared and his brows became more and more furrowed.

Lu Yunxi frowned: "Master, what happened? Do you need my help?"

"The Palace Master has returned to the sect, but... he's gone mad!" He put the letter away, a look of disbelief on his face. "I heard the Palace Master brought back a lot of magical things, and asked everyone in the sect to practice new techniques together!"

Her eyes flashed, and she had some guesses in her mind, and decided to return to the sect with her master.

In the valley.

A man stood on the grass with a tired look on his face. The hill was covered with trees, but the area where he stood was all grass. The grass was very lush and taller than a man.

He stepped on the grass with great difficulty and finally stepped on the weeds to avoid being cut by the sharp blades.

"Friends! I'm the only reporter on the expedition. After learning that someone's livestream had been hacked, I've been running around and finally found a clue."

Although his face was tired, there was a hint of excitement in his voice.

That’s right, the happiest part of solving a puzzle is when the answer is finally revealed.

He is finally going to reveal the truth!

"According to the information you provided, this is where the live broadcast device was last located. Then it completely disappeared and could no longer be located. When I came here, I found some bloodstains..." The reporter pointed with difficulty at the blood on a tree not far away. "According to the video I uploaded, experts have determined that these bloodstains appeared at the exact time when Lu Yun disappeared!"

"In other words, these bloodstains are most likely Lu Yun's, because the indigenous people here rarely come to this deep mountain. It is said that it is too dangerous."

After he finished speaking, he paused and pointed to some traces along the tree: "We can see that there are still some traces of people walking here. It is very likely that Lu Yun was accidentally injured after falling under the tree, and then insisted on moving forward... Uh!"

Looking at the traces that suddenly disappeared, the reporter was a little confused.

He scratched his head and rolled around for a while. He soon noticed that there was a lot of blood mixed in the soil on the ground, but it was dried by the wind and looked very inconspicuous.

"Dear viewers, look here!" The reporter manually adjusted the live broadcast device to shoot the ground. "I suspect Lu Yun died here, but I don't have any reliable testing equipment, so I can't confirm if this is her blood... but it's very likely!"

In the interstellar space, the people above discussed it and decided that if Lu Yun was not found after a month, a death notice would be issued.

Lu Yunxi had no idea that the traces he had left had been discovered. He had just returned to the sect with his master.
