Chapter 233: Everyone Has Their Own Thoughts and No One Knows
Yun Zhongjun looked unremarkable, but he truly possessed magical powers. Thinking of the exit from Yunmengze, he discovered that there was another lake hidden within a deep pool, with the waters of the pool and the lake clearly separated and mutually exclusive. It was so ingenious that even Lingxiang was impressed.
Then there's Liu Xia's Huasheng Sword, which Lingxiang praised all the way. The deep pool at the entrance to Yunmengze is pitch black, and there's no telling what's inside. If it weren't for Liu Xia's magical weapon, the Water Spirit Pearl would have been a lost cause.
A group of people walked out of the forest, speaking very little to each other, each with their own thoughts.
Banxia was still somewhat confused about what Yun Zhongjun had done before. She kept looking at the Judge's Pen and Bagua Plate along the way, but she could not figure out their deeper meaning.
And Liu Xia didn't know why, but he kept staring at Banxia all the way, glancing at her from time to time, with unclear meaning in his eyes, as if he was three parts exploring and seven parts affection.
Zhao Wuyang had a frown on his face and lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking about. Ajin just glanced at him twice and then lay down on his shoulder, holding his position steadily without falling.
Xinyi was even more confused. He was worried about the lawsuit and wanted to speak several times, but when he saw that everyone else was also worried, he gave up.
Having previously encountered Yinghua and Huiwu in Yunmengze, I could tell at a glance that Bai Wuchang was using these tactics. He dared to scheme like this in the divine realm, and now that his plan has failed, he will certainly not give up. I imagine he has a backup plan.
But now looking at Lingxiang, he didn't seem to be worried about it, and looked very proud of himself.
She got a phoenix egg from the evil beast, not on a whim, but actually for Xiaobai. As for what she was going to do, she was not quite sure in her heart and needed to think it over carefully.
Lingxiang naturally noticed that Xinyi was hesitant to speak, and also knew what he was worried about.
"No matter how much you worry, what's going to happen will eventually happen. Why worry so much?"
"I've worked for Bai Wuchang for many years and know his ways well. He won't give up until he achieves his goal. Now that his plan has failed, he's bound to cause trouble again. If we don't prepare early, we'll be caught off guard."
Lingxiang naturally knew this, but now everyone had just left Yunmengze and was still exhausted.
Besides, based on the cultivation level of these people, they are really not even a little bit inferior to Bai Wuchang. Even if it is true as Xinyi said, that the old devil will come up with another plan if one fails, they can only deal with it as it comes. Thinking too much now will only add to the trouble.
It would be better to let them relax for now, so that when Bai Wuchang comes, they will have the energy to deal with it, right?
Just as Lingxiang and Xinyi were talking, Long Qi suddenly cried out in surprise, "I know! I know!"
It is said that Long Qi is not a steady person, but he didn't say a word along the way. He just pinched his chin and talked to himself. No one knew what he was thinking about. He had been quiet for a long time, and now he suddenly started to shout, which scared everyone.
"You idiot, why are you so jumpy? You scare me to death!" Banxia complained while patting her chest.
But Long Qi rushed in front of them, hands on his hips, and an angry look on his face: "I said I'd seen him somewhere before, but it turned out to be that old man! Really, if I had known earlier, I would have given him a good beating!"
These nonsensical words stunned the group - could this kid be possessed by a demon?
Long Qi was certainly not crazy. The one he was talking about was the old mountain god who had brought them to Shuijing before. However, he did not expect that the old mountain god was actually the Nine-Colored Deer, the mount of Fairy Yao Ji!
Long Qi had gained something from his Qi search, becoming more attentive to subtle details. That was why he had felt a sense of familiarity when he had seen the Nine-Colored Deer. However, the old mountain god had shown his true form, so no one would have thought anything of it.
However, when several people were pushed into the pool by Yun Zhongjun, the Nine-Colored Deer transformed into the appearance of an old mountain god, and waved goodbye to them with a smile on his face. The crutch in his hand was exactly the same shape as his deer antlers, not to mention the ribbon bell on it.
It was a coincidence that at that moment, Long Qi, who was struggling in the water, saw it. Although he could only see it vaguely in the water, he immediately connected the two things.
"No wonder he was able to steal the prescription from Fairy Yao Ji. So that's how it is!" After hearing what Long Qi said, Lingxiang suddenly realized.
However, this Nine-Colored Deer is also an ancient mythical beast. To be honest, it attained enlightenment much earlier than Fairy Yao Ji, so why is it willing to be Fairy Yao Ji's mount?
Never mind, let the older generation's tangled affairs go. Looking at the angry Long Qi, Banxia suddenly remembered the array pattern Yun Zhongjun had drawn on the back of the Bagua plate. There was a small pattern in the middle that seemed to be similar to the pattern that appeared on her wrist after the incident with Feng Wushan.
Thinking of this, Banxia quickly rolled up her sleeves and took the Bagua plate to compare them. Sure enough, they were exactly the same!
What is the intention of these two old immortals?
"Hmm~" Lingxiang pondered for a long time as she looked at the two patterns, one dark and one red. "This should be ancient elephant script, but it's so old that its exact meaning is unknown."
Liu Xia frowned upon hearing this. "Those two are both extremely powerful. They both left such marks on Banxia. This is definitely no accident. They must have calculated something."
He couldn't help but feel a little worried. Could it be that Banxia was in danger?
Ajin raised his eyes calmly, then closed his eyes and pretended to sleep again, as if nothing had happened, but Lingxiang saw it all.
"I don't think there's anything to worry about." Lingxiang heard the worry in Liu Xia's words, glanced at him meaningfully and said, "People can become spirits even when they grow old. These gods are as old as the sky, and they have been idle for years. It's not surprising that they do something on a whim. After all, they won't harm anyone."
But this is just Lingxiang's words of comfort. Anything can happen on the road of cultivation, so for safety, we still have to pay attention to it.
Seeing Ah Jin like that, it seemed he knew something. When I had some free time, I could ask him and everything would be clear. At the very least, the old man with the bamboo cane was well versed in formations and had studied ancient elephant script. After returning to the sect, I could ask him about it. Thinking of this, Lingxiang didn't show it on her face, but secretly memorized the pattern.
However, all this did not escape the notice of Long Qi and Xin Yi. The two looked at each other but said nothing.
Even after hearing Lingxiang's words, Liu Xia still felt somewhat uneasy. Banxia felt a little embarrassed when she saw a group of people surrounding her, and hurriedly rolled down her sleeves.
"Forward... The exit of the forest is not far ahead. Let's hurry."
The demons have been active recently, and judging by what happened before, it seems they are targeting her. Banxia thought that it would be best to return to the sect as soon as possible.
But they didn't expect that someone was already waiting for them outside the woods.
"Elder Fu Cang has kept me waiting for so long!"
