Inside the dark alley.
Ye Feng stopped and spoke to Hu Qingniu, who was following closely behind him.
"Tell me, what exactly happened?"
Hu Qingniu's legs went weak, and he was about to kneel down again.
"Hu Qingniu greets the young master!"
Hu Qingniu was just an elder in Guigu.
Ye Feng wasn't surprised that the man could see through his identity.
Before the other party could kneel down, Ye Feng raised his hand in the air, and an invisible force helped Hu Qingniu up.
"Alright, no need for all this formalities."
"What is it? Tell me quickly."
Ye Feng stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze casually sweeping over a sewer manhole cover not far ahead, a cold smile playing on his lips.
From the moment he entered the alley, he keenly sensed that danger lurked beneath the surface of the street.
Although the other party tried his best to suppress his aura, he still couldn't hide it from Ye Feng.
However, since the other party did not take any action, he was naturally in no hurry to make a move.
With Ye Feng's current strength, he didn't take the other party seriously at all.
Inside the sewer pipe.
The two-headed black python was coiled on a strange altar, its forked tongue, half a meter long, flicking in and out, looking quite eerie.
On the surface of the altar, dense runes were engraved, shimmering with faint light that continuously flowed into the body of the two-headed python.
The opponent's aura grew increasingly powerful, and each of its scales was as large as a washbasin, gleaming with a cold luster.
The presence of the altar effectively contained the aura of the two-headed black python, making it difficult for outsiders to detect.
In each of the four corners of the altar—east, west, south, and north—a person in black robes sat cross-legged.
They were shrouded in black robes, obscuring their faces, like ghosts and demons, and their auras were equally restrained.
These four people are all from the Yagigumi Believers Group of Japan.
They are the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh positions, respectively.
At this moment, all four of them placed their hands on the altar in front of them, using their own cultivation to activate the altar, drawing in the dark earth spirit energy from the depths of the earth, and then supplying it to the two-headed python above.
Each of them was a master of innate cultivation. The four of them, together with the two-headed black python, were enough to kill a peak innate cultivator.
They can even fight against Martial Grandmasters who are of a higher level.
In short, they made thorough preparations to kill Ye Feng this time.
After their previous assassination attempt at the cemetery failed, they planned for a long time before this operation took place.
When to make a move?
The fifth believer used telepathy to communicate with the fourth believer standing beside him.
Soon, the divine sense of the fourth person also returned.
"Wait a little longer."
"Let's wait until the two-headed black python has absorbed all the earth elemental energy here before we make our move. That way, we'll have a better chance of success."
"Won't that brat upstairs find out?"
"Don't worry, the altar shields and seals off the aura, so even if a Martial Grandmaster comes, he won't be able to detect it."
Soon, an eerie silence fell over the surroundings again.
At this time.
On the ground, Ye Feng had also finished listening to Hu Qingniu's story.
According to the other party.
A traitor has emerged from the upper echelons of Guigu, colluding with a chief physician from South Korea. They have seized control of the entire Guigu Valley and forced many people to surrender.
Those who refused to surrender were all killed, including many of the elders in the valley.
Many people also managed to escape during the chaos, and Hu Qingniu was one of them.
The reason they did this was simply to obtain the cultivation resources of Guigu.
It should be noted that Guigu is located deep in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, a place rich in spiritual energy, like a paradise on earth.
The valley is spring-like all year round and is home to many precious and rare medicinal herbs, many of which have been extinct in the outside world for nearly a hundred years.
Therefore, many medical and martial arts masters are eyeing Guigu with envy, trying every means to extract some treasures from him.
“Young Master, a few old comrades and I barely escaped from the traitor’s slaughter. On the surface, we are healing the sick and saving lives, but in reality, we are searching for the whereabouts of the old Valley Master, hoping that he can return soon, turn the tide, and eliminate the traitor.”
"But unfortunately, I searched for him for a long time, but I still haven't heard from him."
"But no matter what, heaven rewards those who persevere, and I met the young master of the valley."
"Young Valley Master, Ghost Valley is in dire straits. We beg you to help us overcome this crisis!"
Hu Qingniu's eyes were filled with urgency and anxiety.
It is certain that he did not lie.
Because Ye Feng had been observing his facial expressions the whole time, and there was no sign of anything unusual about them.
Ye Feng said calmly.
"No one dares to cause trouble on my sixth master's territory."
"Leave this matter to me."
"What's that traitor's name? How dare he betray his own people! I'm going to kill him."
Seeing that Ye Feng had agreed, Hu Qingniu was very happy and continued.
"The traitor is Chen Xuanfeng, the former deputy valley master of Guigu. He is ruthless and has killed many elders in the valley who opposed him. He has also won over many people. The chief national doctor of South Korea who colluded with him is named Cha Haohan."
"I heard that Che Haohan is going to Baide Mansion in three days to attend the 80th birthday celebration of Grand Eunuch Wei Tianxian."
"While he's away from Ghost Valley, I'll immediately gather a few of my old buddies. We'll sneak into Ghost Valley and find an opportunity to kill Chen Xuanfeng."
“Once we kill him, the rest will be much easier. Che Haohan will be all alone and won’t be able to stir up any trouble, since he has no foundation in Ghost Valley.”
