Chapter 16 Broken Snow "What did Master turn the broken snow into?"...
After an unknown amount of time, the powerful light emitted by the spiritual power gradually dissipated. Xie Wuyang's face turned pale, and there was a hint of doubt and confusion in his dark eyes.
Yun Wanzhou stood not far away and looked at him, his thin lips tightly pursed, his brows slightly furrowed, and a hint of concern in his eyes.
Xie Wuyang calmly shifted his gaze, pursed his lips, and walked in front of Lin Jinghong, "Senior Lin, I'm sorry to bother you."
Lin Jinghong seemed to have anticipated this outcome. He chuckled softly, his hands behind his back, "Why, you didn't find it?"
Xie Wuyang nodded without hesitation, "I will definitely do what I promised you, Senior. However, when we were investigating, the tracking technique definitely pointed me to this place. If you find any trace of the Nightmare Stone, please let me know."
Lin Jinghong nodded in agreement, "If the Nightmare Stone is really here, I won't be a person who can't tell right from wrong."
Before leaving, Xie Wuyang was worried and cast a sound transmission spell on Lin Jinghong.
This talisman will connect to the other party according to the spiritual energy on the talisman. Just in case, Xie Wuyang specially used his own spiritual energy.
If he can only find the Nightmare Stone after his magical powers become stronger in the future, he absolutely does not want Yun Wanzhou to know about it.
I just don’t know if Yun Wanzhou noticed his little actions, or if he had already noticed them, but thought that he was just a low-level disciple and didn’t take them seriously?
…
With strange thoughts in mind, Xie Wuyang and Yun Wanzhou left the barrier one after another.
The moment the surrounding illusion lit up, Yun Wanzhou didn't know what he was thinking about. His eyes turned and fell on Xie Wuyang, "Tracing the Nightmare Stone here, you didn't even suspect that it was Lin Jinghong's doing?"
Xie Wuyang knew Yun Wanzhou was testing him intentionally, so after a moment's thought, he said, "Disciple knows the Nightmare Stone is a serious matter, so I dare not take it lightly. When I met Senior Lin just now, I used my spiritual power to test him. Furthermore, I have heard of Senior's achievements among my fellow disciples, so I am relieved."
After saying that, Xie Wuyang raised his eyes to glance at Yun Wanzhou's expression, and found that the other party had drooping eyebrows and a blank face. He didn't know whether he believed it or not.
Xie Wuyang's eyes moved slightly, and he was about to say something else, but when his sight suddenly shifted, it stopped at a corner of the cave.
The soil there was charred black and emitting black mist. A ray of white light was very obvious. It was the spiritual power released by Yun Wanzhou when he used the tracking technique.
It was just that they had just arrived here, and Xie Wuyang didn't find it when he looked around. Xie Wuyang was sure that this was left behind after they entered the secret realm.
In other words, this was not the spiritual power exerted by Yun Wanzhou, but the power he displayed in the secret realm.
Xie Wuyang's face darkened and he turned around, "Master, there's a strange phenomenon in the southeast corner."
After saying that, Xie Wuyang walked straight to the land, squatted down, picked up some soil with his fingers, and put it in front of his nose to sniff.
When he felt that familiar breath, Xie Wuyang became more and more certain of his guess.
The aura of spiritual power is like the smell left on a person's body. The longer the time, the weaker the smell. Although there is only a trace of spiritual power left here, Xie Wuyang still feels the strong aura.
"This is the tracking spell I just cast." Xie Wuyang turned around, his eyes cold, "When we entered the illusion, the person who stole the Nightmare Stone came here again."
But that person was very careful and eliminated all his aura, but he never thought that there would be a trace left.
Now, Xie Wuyang became even more convinced.
Their actions along the way were all under the control of the Nightmare Stone thief, and that person...
"The purpose of the person who stole the Nightmare Stone is probably not just to gain power." Xie Wuyang suddenly raised his head and met Yun Wanzhou's gaze. "He is plotting a bigger plan."
Yun Wanzhou nodded, a look of astonishment and approval flashing across his face. "Well said."
Even though he had long known that he was Yun Wanzhou's disciple, Xie Wuyang still felt a little strange when he saw Yun Wanzhou praising his disciple so much.
He calmly shifted his gaze away and returned his attention to the southeast corner of the cave.
The fact that the person who stole the Nightmare Stone could appear outside the cave in such a short time most likely means that he did not leave the Big Stone Slope.
But Yun Wanzhou and I have spent so much spiritual energy and still haven't found it. If we want to find it, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Thinking of this, Xie Wuyang couldn't help feeling a little worried.
A pair of hands suddenly pressed on Xie Wuyang's head, with very light force, as if to comfort him.
The moment he looked up, Xie Wuyang met Yun Wanzhou's gaze.
Yun Wanzhou's eyes flashed, and he spoke in a stiff tone, "Perhaps he managed to escape when we mistakenly entered the barrier. However, since he stayed in Dashipo for such a long time and tried every possible way to lure us here, he will definitely do it again."
Feeling the force above his head, Xie Wuyang was a little slow to react. He blinked and looked at Yun Wanzhou for a long time before he realized something.
Yun Wanzhou seemed to be...comforting himself?
Once the recognition started, Xie Wuyang couldn't stop no matter what. The more he looked, the more it looked like it, especially after Yun Wanzhou withdrew his hand and tried hard to pretend nothing had happened.
Xie Wuyang found it somewhat amusing and looked Yun Wanzhou up and down a few times. He was thinking whether to pretend to speak unintentionally and expose Yun Wanzhou's disguise, but his eyes flashed and suddenly fell on the stone wall in the southeast corner.
I was so focused on studying the charred land that I didn't even notice that a slight scratch had appeared on the stone wall above the Nightmare Stone aura.
Xie Wuyang couldn't help but go back to that place and raised his hand to touch it.
The scratch was not deep, and it looked more like it was accidentally scratched by something like a branch. It was just a coincidence that the aura of the Nightmare Stone appeared in the same place, which made people suspicious.
A familiar face suddenly appeared in Xie Wuyang's mind——
Chen Ziyi.
When Chen Ziyi explained the location of the monster, he mentioned that he was a woodcutter, and...
Xie Wuyang narrowed his eyes, thinking of the first time they met, when Chen Ziyi tried every means to stop the two of them from exorcising the demon.
"Master, let's go back to Dashipo."
Yun Wanzhou obviously noticed this as well, and without Xie Wuyang's explanation, he subconsciously wanted to grasp the hilt of the Broken Snow Sword, but found nothing.
Yun Wanzhou then remembered that in order to express his respect for Lin Jinghong, he had turned his personal spiritual weapon into something else.
Thinking of this, Yun Wanzhou lowered his head and shook his right hand. In the blink of an eye, the broken snow reappeared at Yun Wanzhou's waist.
Xie Wuyang was a little curious, so he leaned over to Yun Wanzhou's sleeve and asked, "Master, what did you turn the broken snow into?"
"Buttons." Yun Wanzhou replied.
button?
Xie Wuyang's gaze suddenly fell on Yun Wanzhou's cuffs. In his memory, he seemed to have seen a flash of light color passing by, which made Yun Wanzhou's wrist look as white as jade.
Could it be that was Yun Wanzhou’s broken snow?
Yun Wanzhou didn't know what Xie Wuyang was thinking. After he took the broken snow from his waist and made it into a size that a person could stand on, he turned around and called out to Xie Wuyang, "No problem."
Xie Wuyang came back to his senses and jumped onto the broken snow skillfully.
When flying swords with Yun Wanzhou, Yun Wanzhou was always in front and Xie Wuyang was behind. Yun Wanzhou's sword flying was unusual, so Xie Wuyang would often hold on to his clothes tightly.
But this time, until the big rock slope was completely in sight and the two of them were already high in the air, Xie Wuyang did not feel the slightest discomfort.
This time, Yun Wanzhou's speed seemed to be a little slower when flying the sword.
