Chapter 182

Xie Danyan sat on the hillside and sighed softly, "Wanbai, where do you think Mu Chen and Ye Shi went?"

Cheng Wanbai shrugged and said helplessly: "How should I know this?"

The person who wants to know the whereabouts of the two the most right now should be Xiong Wei. It is said that Xiong Wei has been looking for Muchen and Ye Shi for more than a year, but unfortunately, he has not found any trace of them.

It’s strange to say, two living people, with Xiong Wei watching over them, just disappeared like that.

"I think they must still be there or, maybe, they are living very comfortably." Xie Danyan curled her lips.

Cheng Wanbai smiled and said, "Maybe."

Ye Shi and Muchen have never been the kind of people who would suffer losses. It's just that I heard that the disappearance of these two people was related to several Martial Emperors. If they really stayed with the Martial Emperors, it would be really dangerous.

"Speaking of which, Mu Chen and Ye Shi are missing. I heard that Lu Yao and Zhuang Yu from Mingyue Academy have also been missing for a while." Xie Danyan said boredly.

Cheng Wanbai frowned and said, "It seems that four people disappeared at about the same time. I don't know if there is any connection."

"By the way, Principal, who are you meeting? You seem so mysterious." Xie Danyan said.

Cheng Wanbai shrugged and said, "I don't know, but he should be a very important person. The principal seems to be very afraid of him."

"Could it be that the person who can make the principal afraid is a Martial Emperor?" Xie Danyan said thoughtfully.

Cheng Wanbai shook his head and said, "Okay, stop guessing. That's not our business."

Xie Danyan shrugged and said, "You're right."

…………

Tianxin City.

A strange piece of news spread widely, causing a group of cultivators to become excited.

Rumor has it that Lou Qing found a palace where a powerful martial arts master practiced, but somehow, he was tricked by two ants. The two ants hid in the inner hall and acted arrogantly with the help of a mysterious seventh-level formation. Lou Qing and other emperor-level masters who dominated the area were turned away.

The most essential part of the remains of the powerful Wu Zong was occupied by two ants.

Relying on the resources of the inner hall, these two ants cultivated from a five-star martial spirit to the martial king realm in just one year. Their blessings were incredible!

Lou Qing and others fought wits and courage with these two ants for more than a year, but were tricked by the two ants and killed one of their fellow Taoists, Lin Moyuan.

After Lin Moyuan's death, Lou Qing had no choice but to come back for reinforcements, and this reinforcement was the sixth-level formation master Mu He.

…

Ji Mansion in Tianxin City.

"I've found out that this chaotic news was spread by a Nine-Star Martial King named Wei Dong. This Wei Dong's strength isn't very impressive, but he somehow found an ancient concealment talisman, making him very good at tracking others and gathering information."

"Last time, Lou Qing appeared in Tianxin City. Although my people lost track of him, Weidong didn't. He seemed to have caught up with Lou Qing and even found where Lou Qing and the others were. However, because Lou Qing's side was full of Martial Emperors, he couldn't get any good results, so he retreated.

"The reason why he spread this news is probably to fish in troubled waters." Ji Feiyan said lightly.

Xiong Wei said excitedly, "Is the news he spread accurate?"

Ji Feiyan nodded and said, "It should be true, but we have to go there to find out the specific situation."

She originally wanted to catch Wei Dong and find out the details, but this man was very good at hiding and was as slippery as a loach, so she couldn't catch him at all.

"The people in the city are very excited now. Many Martial Kings have formed an alliance and are planning to explore the palace where the Martial Sect master is practicing. Many Martial Emperors are also very interested in the Martial Sect master." Ji Feiyan said with a smile.

The remains of the powerful Martial Sect leader made many Martial Emperors extremely excited!

Xiong Wei clenched his fists and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After more than a year, there was finally news. If the news was true, then Mu Chen and Ye Shi should still be alive.

Ji Feiyan took out a map and said, "This is the map that has been widely circulated in the city. It is said that if you follow this route, you will find the remains of the powerful Wu Zong."

Xiong Wei said happily: "Then let's get going."

"No rush. If Muchen and Ye Shi really occupied the inner hall of the palace and gained huge benefits, they would probably be the target of public criticism by now. Their opponents are not ordinary people. I think you'd better disguise yourself and blend into the main force." Ji Feiyan looked at Xiong Wei thoughtfully.

Xiong Wei nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, but I don't think anything will happen to them during this period of time. Mu He has already passed by."

Ji Feiyan said disapprovingly: "If the rumors are true, then it is absolutely impossible for them to deal with this group of level six experts for so long. It is impossible for them to cause trouble as soon as they say it will happen."

"You have a point." Xiong Wei slowly exhaled.

When Lou Qing, Mu He and others returned to Tianxin City and prepared to purchase the materials needed for the sixth-level formation.

The matter of Wuzong's training palace has become known to everyone.

Several powerful Martial Emperors came directly to Lou Qing and asked him with a smile whether it was true that he was plotted against by the two Martial Spirits as rumored.

Lou Qing was so angry that he was fuming, but there was nothing he could do.

"How did things turn out like this?" Ning Huai couldn't help but ask.

Lou Qing gritted his teeth and said nothing. He had already figured out that when he came out to ask Mu He for help last time, he was followed by someone. That person's strength was not as strong as Wang Jing, but the concealment talisman in his hand was a good one, and he had been watching him for a long time.

What a bad luck! Not only did he get tricked by those two brats, Mu Chen and Ye Shi, but he was also tricked by a thieving bastard.

It's a pity that I have exhausted all my efforts in searching for this secret place, but now I am in this situation.

"It was my negligence." Lou Qing bit his tongue and said embarrassedly.

Ning Huai frowned. Although he felt a little resentful towards Lou Qing for his negligence, he didn't say anything harsh in the end.

Mu He frowned. Now that things had gotten to this point, he had to think carefully about what to do next.

By then, it would be bad if he worked so hard to set up the formation and all the Martial Emperors rushed in and made things difficult for others.

…………

"Lou Qing is back." Ji Feiyan said.

Xiong Wei nodded and said, "I know that, too." Lou Qing had been targeted by various groups since his return. "He and Mu He came back together. Rumor has it they're buying materials for the formation, probably to prepare for breaking it. Maybe the rumors are true."

Ji Feiyan nodded and said, "There are many people in the city now, all planning to go to the palace left by Wu Zong. We just need to sneak in."

Xiong Wei nodded and said, "I think so too."

"Don't reveal your identity." Ji Feiyan said solemnly.

Xiong Wei nodded and said, "I know."

If Mu Chen and Ye Shi really eat alone in the secret realm left by Wu Zong, then they will offend more than one or two Martial Emperors. In this case, if the relationship between him and the two is exposed, those people may not be able to deal with Mu Chen and Ye Shi who are hiding in their shells and may attack him.

Although Xiong Wei is also a Martial Emperor, he is only one, and two fists cannot beat four hands!

The thought of so many powerful Martial Emperors was enough to make one shudder! Mu Chen and Ye Shi hadn't figured out how they'd been getting by over the past year.

…………

"Mu Chen, there are a lot of people coming outside, many, many people." Ye Shi found Mu Chen who was studying the formation and said.

Mu Chen nodded and said, "I know."

Ever since Lou Qing, Ning Huai, and Mu He left, cultivators have been coming here one after another, including Martial Emperors and Martial Kings. At first, all the Martial King-level cultivators were driven away by Lu Xingfeng and others who stayed behind to guard the place. However, as the number of Martial Kings increased, Lu Xingfeng and others stopped driving them away.

Recently, I don’t know about the King of Martial Arts, but it seems that even the Martial Spirit has appeared.

Outside the formation, every day there is a group of new warriors hammering and banging at the formation. The whole secret realm is bustling and lively!

"Mu Chen, what do you think is going on? Could it be that Lou Qing was hit so hard that he couldn't think straight, so he invited many cultivators over?" Ye Shi said, tilting his head.

Mu Chen shrugged and said, "It should be impossible. I guess Lou Qing accidentally leaked the news." There are only so many things in the inner hall. Lou Qing would be crazy to invite so many cultivators here.

Mu Chen lowered his head. There were more and more Martial Emperors outside, all staring at him and Ye Shi.

If something unexpected happens to this formation and it fails, what should he and Ye Shi do?

Mu Chen shook his head. There couldn't be any accidents, and no accidents were allowed.

"Tomorrow, we will check the entire formation again." Mu Chen said.

Ye Shi nodded and said, "Okay."

…………

"What is going on? Why are there so many people suddenly here?" Gu Miaoyu asked with a frown.

"The news leaked out. As soon as they heard that there were relics of Emperor Wuzong, all kinds of evil spirits came." Lu Xingfeng said with a gloomy face.

"How did the news leak out?" Gu Miaoyu said angrily.

"It seems that when Lou Qing went to ask Old Man Mu for help last time, he was targeted by a Martial King. As a result, it seems that he was followed here by that Martial King." Lu Xingfeng frowned.

"Lou Qing is too careless. He was actually tracked here by a Martial King." Gu Miaoyu said indignantly.

Lu Xingfeng sighed softly, "Things have already come to this. There's no point in blaming Lou Qing anymore."

Gu Miaoyu gritted her teeth and said, "Damn it! It's fine if the Martial Emperor comes, but now the Martial Kings are also here. What's going on? I'm going to kill all those Martial Kings."

Lu Xingfeng glanced at Gu Miaoyu calmly and said, "Go if you want to."

Gu Miaoyu looked at the cold smile on Lu Xingfeng's face and sat down dejectedly. One Martial King was not scary, but eight or ten of them combined together would be a bit scary. Moreover, many of those who could cultivate to the Martial King level had backers and could not be easily touched.

Gu Miaoyu gritted her teeth. During this period of time, many Martial Emperors had come in.

Many Martial Emperors sneered at them and were full of contempt for the fact that they were schemed against by the two little devils.

"Don't let me know who the King Wu is who leaked the news?" Gu Miaoyu said gritting her teeth.

Lu Xingfeng took a deep breath and said, "That person is probably outside now."

When Gu Miaoyu heard Lu Xingfeng's words, her teeth began to gnaw.

"When will Lou Qing and the others come back?" Gu Miaoyu said with a frown.

"I guess it will be soon." Lu Xingfeng said lightly.

Gu Miaoyu's brows were gloomy. Now that there were so many people in the outer hall, even if they punched the card in the formation, how much benefit could they get? Hateful!
