Chapter 329 I swear, will he believe it?
Lin Xiaoman grabbed Chen Shuyan and tried to run towards the exit, but was stopped by Chen Shuyan.
"Don't."
"Huh?" Lin Xiaoman was puzzled. If they didn't leave now, when would they wait? What if they changed their minds? Those people wouldn't be waiting at the exit for no reason, as if they were looking for someone.
Hmm? Looking for someone?
Lin Xiaoman suddenly had an idea and looked back, and found that those people really seemed to be looking for someone.
Chen Shuyan's face looked grim. He pursed his lips and stared at the exit. "I suspect they are looking for you."
"Looking for me?"
Lin Xiaoman pointed at himself in shock, his heart sinking at the same time. But then he felt not so surprised, so he pulled Chen Shuyan to hide in a more secluded place.
"Isn't it because I suddenly appeared at the place where you were confronting each other earlier?"
She could think of nothing else but this incident which could have brought on this trouble.
Chen Shuyan looked at her speechlessly and shrugged, "That's right."
Lin Xiaoman felt helpless and distressed. The trouble had finally arrived.
"No, I just used an intermediate teleportation talisman, and who knew I would appear there."
After a pause, he quickly asked Chen Shuyan, "Wait, what were you guys doing confronting each other there? We all came to the Penglai Secret Realm to find treasures, why did you have to pick a fight with those monsters?"
"It is said that in the center of the secret realm there are clues to ascension left by that old senior. The reason he was able to ascend so quickly was because he obtained a treasure from the Penglai Secret Realm. He successfully broke through and ascended less than a hundred years after leaving."
"And then, did you find it?"
No wonder they all ran over there.
"No, we fought that group of monsters that day and ended up in a draw. There were too many seventh-level monsters on the other side. Although we have Yuanying-stage cultivators on our side and have strong combat power, ah, Xiaoman, there are really too many monsters in this secret realm."
After she finished speaking, she approached Lin Xiaoman and whispered, "Also, at the end, it seemed like an eighth-level monster appeared, but it was only for a moment. We were all frightened at the time and quickly retreated from that fox cave."
"Fox hole?"
Lin Xiaoman's heart skipped a beat. No way! Did they really find the place? That spiritual vein?
"Yes, they say that the fox cave is actually the place where the senior finally went into seclusion. Although I think this news sounds unreliable, it is the news released by the descendants of the senior, and they are particularly certain, so we have to believe it."
Chen Shuyan spread his hands and said, "But, so what? In the end, we still didn't find anything. There were only a few young foxes in the fox cave, and we ended up angering the big foxes, especially one that looked like an eighth-level giant fox. We had no choice but to retreat."
Lin Xiaoman gasped. Wow, there is actually an eighth-level giant fox.
She had offended the fox clan. Fortunately, the one chasing her was not an eighth-level fox, but a seventh-level one, otherwise she would not have been able to escape.
"But, originally we didn't find anything and were about to leave, but you showed up, so suddenly."
Chen Shuyan didn't know whether to say that Lin Xiaoman was unlucky or good luck, how could he have ended up there by chance.
"Now only Li Mang, for some unknown reason, insists that you took the things, and has been looking for you in the secret realm."
Because she had spoken to Xiaoman before, Li Mang thought they knew each other, so he stared at her and asked her questions, causing her to hide all the way and finally encounter a group of difficult monsters, which resulted in her arriving at the exit so late.
"Li Mang?"
This was the first time Lin Xiaoman heard this name.
"Yes, he is the descendant of that senior. He is very powerful and only one step away from reaching the Nascent Soul stage. So if you meet him, you must be careful and avoid him."
Lin Xiaoman suddenly realized, no wonder, she now strongly suspected that the man named Li Mang might know something else, even that spiritual vein.
So, maybe he guessed that he had spirit stones obtained from the spirit vein?
Could he even suspect that he had obtained the clues to ascension left by his ancestors?
Lin Xiaoman found it strange. It turned out that the senior had descendants. If he had descendants, why didn’t he leave the secret of ascension to them, but made everyone run to the dangerous Penglai secret realm to find it?
"But what did he think I took?"
"What else could it be? It must be the clue they're all looking for, even though no one knows what it is."
Lin Xiaoman was very sure that he did not take anything except the top-grade spirit stone, but this top-grade spirit stone was definitely not the clue to ascension.
"But I really didn't take it. Help me, I can swear to God. Do you think he would believe me if I swear to him?"
Lin Xiaoman also wants to find that clue. Who doesn’t want to ascend to heaven? This time when she came to the Penglai Secret Realm, her biggest goal was this.
It’s a pity that nothing was found, only a pile of wealth was obtained.
Well, top-grade spirit stones are pretty good too!
Chen Shuyan recalled Li Mang's personality and frowned. "I'm not sure. He's very confident and self-centered. I feel a little uncertain."
This is a difficult situation!
Lin Xiaoman hesitated and struggled, then pushed Chen Shuyan, "Shuyan, you leave first. I'll think of a way. They also need to get out. We can't just wait at the exit all the time. And after you get out, help me find some help and wait for me outside."
"No, you definitely can't handle them alone."
"There's no need to deal with them. I just need to sneak out. The danger lies beyond my exit, so I need you to go out first and find some helpers to watch outside and come protect me as soon as they see me come out."
Chen Shuyan thought so too, but she was still a little uneasy. "But can you really do it alone? What if they stop you and you can't get out, you'll be doomed."
"Don't worry, I still have the teleportation talisman, even an intermediate teleportation talisman, so how can I not be able to get out?"
Lin Xiaoman patted her hands and pushed her forward, "Hurry up."
Chen Shuyan had no choice but to fly towards the exit, looking back every few steps. Lin Xiaoman changed her position and stared at that side. Sure enough, she saw that Chen Shuyan was also stopped. The other party was saying something to her, but fortunately, she did not make things difficult for her. In the end, Chen Shuyan passed safely.
Lin Xiaoman took a deep breath. He really didn't expect that there would be such trouble in the end.
Since that’s the case, let’s just fight it out. I don’t believe I can’t outlast you.
One day and two days passed, and fewer and fewer people went out of the exit. On the third day, only three people were seen going out in the whole morning. Lin Xiaoman did not dare to act rashly and kept staring at the size of the exit. There was no change at first, but from the third day, she found something strange. Although the change was small, it was indeed getting smaller.
The few people guarding the exit were still guarding it and did not go out. They just kept looking back at the exit, indicating that they were also starting to get anxious.
