Chapter 170 Counterfeit

Su Qingwu remembered something, looked at Lin Yan, and asked:

"How long have you and Mr. Gu lived here?"

"Since I became your disciple, I have stayed in the courtyard except for necessary operations against the enemy. It has been almost five years now."

"Besides you, does anyone else know about the existence of this courtyard?"

"Since I became your disciple, only you, Senior Su, have been to this courtyard. As for whether the rest of you know the situation here, I am not sure."

At this point, Lin Yan quickly added:

"On Ruofeng Island, only this dense forest shrouded in mist all year round has no authority. It covers an area of ​​nearly 30,000 acres. On weekdays, there are often casual cultivators entering the forest to explore opportunities.

But they basically move around in a circle around the forest. Occasionally, if someone goes deep into the forest and is discovered by the master, he will try to scare them away."

As far as she knew, Su Qingwu was the only exception.

It was only because this senior had signed a soul contract with the ghost cultivator, and based on the master's own intuition, that he chose to cooperate with him.

In addition, when they met on the Sun Sky Island before, the senior did not attack her under such circumstances, which proved that he was definitely not the same kind of person as the Mo family and the Guiyang Sect.

Although the courtyard was exposed at the moment, Lin Yan did not doubt Su Qingwu.

Putting aside the above reasons, just now, her senior saved her life.

If there really is an ulterior motive, why bother doing this?

At this time, Su Qingwu walked to the spiritual stone and tried to move the stone again.

A slight roar was heard, and then everything was the same as before, with nothing unusual happening with the Spiritual Stone.

It was now noon, and in her opinion, the probability that Gu Wan was delayed by something was low, and the most likely scenario was that she was trapped somewhere.

The enemy that appeared earlier can also indirectly prove this point.

Although he now knows the existence of Bailuo Villa, Su Qingwu will not take the initiative to go there unless it is absolutely necessary.

After all, the five thousand year old spiritual plant is her goal.

As for Gu Wan, she was not familiar with the other party, and the transaction did not mention assisting his actions.

Most cultivators are selfish, and she is no exception. It is impossible for her to put herself in danger just for a ghost cultivator whom she has only known for less than a day.

......

Time passed bit by bit, Su Qingwu and Lin Yan stayed in the small fenced courtyard until night fell, and they did not encounter any enemy attacks again.

However, the two did not let down their guard.

At 11 p.m., the mist surrounding the courtyard began to move again.

Su Qingwu looked towards the gate of the courtyard.

The fog ahead gradually dissipated, and a figure appeared in sight.

When she saw the person coming, the worry on Lin Yan's face disappeared.

“It’s Master!”

She was overjoyed and was about to walk over quickly, but was stopped by the girl in black next to her.

"Mr. Su? What are you doing..."

Su Qingwu pursed her lips.

"Don't go over there. Just because he's wearing a white cloak doesn't necessarily mean he's your master."

Her intuition told her that the person coming was an enemy, not a friend.

Hearing this, Lin Yan showed a hint of hesitation.

"But her body shape is exactly the same as Master's. And that cloak can block spiritual detection. It is made of a special material. I have only seen Master wear it before."

"It's always better to be cautious. Don't forget that the enemies hiding in the dark now know about Xiao Xiaoyuan's existence."

As soon as the words fell, a slightly hoarse voice reached the ears of the two.

"Yan'er, come to Master!"

The man in the cloak waved to Lin Yan and stopped in front of the fenced courtyard.

"Senior Su, it's Master's voice!"

Lin Yan looked at the girl in black with a questioning look in her eyes.

Su Qingwu shook her head slowly.

"It is not difficult for a monk to imitate a person's voice."

Lin Yan was naturally aware of this, so she felt hesitant.

At this time, the familiar voice rang again.

"Yan'er, come out quickly, don't trust the person next to you! The reason why Master left this time was because she leaked the information and told the enemy about Master's movements!"

"What?"

Lin Yan was startled at first, but then she immediately reacted and realized something was wrong.

"Master, you did not reveal your whereabouts when you left. It is impossible for Senior Su to know your whereabouts in advance."

"Yan'er, do you trust me or someone you've only known for less than two days?"

Lin Yan's face showed a hint of confusion.

She turned to look at the black-clothed girl who looked normal, and then looked at the man wearing a white cloak standing in front of the courtyard gate.

After a while, he slowly clenched his fists and said firmly:

"Senior Su will not harm me. If there were enemies coming here in broad daylight, I would have died if Senior Su had not rescued me."

"Good, good, very good! I never thought I would accept such an ungrateful person as my apprentice!"

The man in the cloak snorted coldly, then turned around and left quickly.

At this moment, Lin Yan's face looked a little pale.

As I watched the figure outside leave, two voices appeared in my heart.

The first one urged her to hurry over and apologize to her master.

The second one reminded her that the man was not her master, but was just trying to trick her out.

The two voices argued endlessly, giving her a splitting headache.

Su Qingwu looked at the pain on Lin Yan's face, and immediately used his fingertips to generate spiritual power and point it at her forehead.

The next moment, a feeling of coolness suddenly swept over the whole body.

The two arguing voices in my heart disappeared at the same moment, and my ears finally became quiet.

Lin Yan's complexion gradually recovered. She looked at the girl in black and said in a low voice with a hint of gratitude, "Thank you very much for your help, Senior Su."

Su Qingwu used his spiritual consciousness to sense the external situation and transmitted his voice:

"That person didn't really leave. He just hid in the dark."

The reason why the visitor stopped in front of the gate was because there were restrictions she had set up around the yard.

Otherwise, I would have definitely taken direct action.

But after this experience, she also confirmed one thing.

The person who pretended to be Gu Wan only had the strength of the Yuanying period.

If one is at the Spirit Transformation level or above, breaking the restrictions around the yard can be said to be an easy task.

If it is Jindan or below, it is also impossible.

At this level, coming here would be tantamount to committing suicide.

The previous person who was in the middle stage of Yuanying died. As long as the enemy received the news, it would be impossible for them to send beings below this level.

After comprehensive consideration, Su Qingwu speculated that the person coming was either in the late Yuanying stage or in the Yuanying stage.

The enemy is in the dark, and they are in the light.

At this time, it is best not to go out.

Who knows what trap might be waiting for them outside.

Su Qingwu set up a soundproof barrier around him, and then told his speculation in detail.

Lin Yan chose to believe.

The two continued to stay in the courtyard.

They have all gone through a fast and can stay here forever, but the enemies who came with a purpose cannot wait too long.

The two sides were in a stalemate for a long time, and finally the enemy lost his patience and reappeared in front of the fenced courtyard.

The slightly hoarse voice sounded again.

"Yan'er, I'll give you one more chance. Come to Master and I'll forgive you for what happened before. Otherwise, you and I, master and disciple, will be enemies from today on!"
