"Tell me first, what exactly are you looking for on this trip?" Yun Jianyue stared at the other party.
Wang Youjun hesitated for a moment, but after glancing at the situation in Shilin, he quickly replied, "We've come to find the remains of the former leader of the Shenxiao Sect. As members of the Shenxiao Sect, we can't let our leader's body lie exposed in the wilderness."
Yun Jianyue laughed: "You're kidding me. Someone like you, who doesn't hesitate to harvest the souls of others and uses his followers as cannon fodder, would actually come here to loyally collect the corpse of the former leader?"
Xie Daoyun secretly admired her. She had been too busy being angry, but Sister Yun was quick-witted and managed to sort everything out from the limited information.
A flash of anger crossed Wang Youjun's eyes. Clearly, he was not used to being manipulated like this, given his status. However, now that his weakness was being exploited, he could only suppress his anger: "Sect Leader Sun carries three talismans with him, which are extremely precious."
At this point, Yun Jianyue understood that it was probably much more precious than he had described, which was why he was willing to go to such great lengths to find it here.
“Alright, we’ll go with you,” Yun Jianyue said.
"Sister Yun!" Xie Daoyun immediately became anxious; she really didn't want to help this guy anymore.
Yun Jianyue whispered, "We must try to get Sun En's talismans. Otherwise, if they get their hands on them, we'll both be doomed."
The two sides can probably still fight for a while, but if the other side gets those three precious talismans, their combat power will definitely increase dramatically, and the two of them will be no match for them. Only by staying on the sidelines can they act according to the situation.
Xie Daoyun was a smart woman, and she immediately understood the implications and stopped trying to stop it.
Wang Youjun frowned. After explaining his purpose to the other party, he became unwilling to let them go with him.
However, seeing that the thunderstorm was about to re-form, he didn't have time to waste here: "Then let's follow."
After speaking, he secretly instructed the other elders to be on guard against any unusual movements by the two women.
After the group entered the stone forest, as expected, the terrifying lightning that had struck before disappeared.
However, small lightning bolts still occasionally struck, but the rest were all top-tier experts who naturally had their own methods to deal with them.
Even so, everyone still felt a life-destroying force seemingly invading their bodies. Once the lightning element had gathered to a certain extent within them, even without that terrifying lightning strike, they would likely have perished on the spot.
The group dared not waste a moment and ran forward as fast as they could.
Just as they passed through the stone forest, the terrifying thunderstorm behind them gathered again.
Even from a great distance, one could feel the terrifying power, and everyone's face turned pale.
Yun Jianyue couldn't help but ask, "How are we going to get out later?"
“No need to worry, Sect Leader Sun has a high-level Divine Firmament Talisman that can control lightning,” Wang Youjun replied casually, his eyes fixed straight ahead.
A hundred feet away, there was a high platform with steps leading up to it on all four sides. At the top was a giant stone chair with a charred skeleton sitting on it.
It looks like it was struck by terrifying lightning.
Even though only a skeleton remained, it still exuded a terrifying aura, making the hairs on one's body stand on end.
What's even more eye-catching is that three talismans float in mid-air and slowly rotate around it. These are clearly the three divine talismans of the successive leaders of the Shenxiao Sect!
