Ai Jiangtu and others finally stepped into this mysterious and ancient Peruvian ruins. When Zizhou just entered, the flame spirit in his mind immediately issued a warning, telling him that there seemed to be something unusual somewhere. However, just as Zizhou was about to walk in that direction, he found that Mo Fan was already rushing towards there like an arrow. So Zizhou stopped moving forward, turned around and walked in another direction.
Zizhou didn't pay much attention to the place where surprises might be hidden. He continued to search for other precious treasures with a calm expression. After all, they were most likely the first visitors to this ancient city, so there are still many authentic items preserved here that have not been touched by others. From these relics, one can clearly feel the long years and long history that this place has experienced.
Relying on Yan Ling's powerful treasure hunting ability, Zizhou soon made some gains. He first discovered a crystal stone that was shaped like a ball and contained special energy. The moment Zizhou held it in his hand, a faint green light flashed by like lightning. This strange phenomenon surprised Zizhou. He quickly took the stone in front of him, looked at it carefully, and tried to feel the power contained in it.
After some careful experience, Zizhou realized that this power was full of vitality, as if it could give new life and vitality to all things. What made Zizhou even more confused was that he actually had a sense of déjà vu about this power, but no matter how hard he racked his brains he could not remember where he had experienced such a similar power.
At this moment, a slight noise suddenly came from behind Zizhou. He was startled and turned around quickly, only to see Zu Jiming standing at the door with a look of surprise on his face. It turned out that Zu Jiming had been looking for treasures everywhere, and unexpectedly he found the room where Zizhou was by accident.
The moment Zu Jiming saw Zizhou, the smile on his face froze instantly. He turned around and walked out without hesitation, like a frightened rabbit. You know, Zu Jiming is extremely afraid of Zizhou now. This was not only because of Zizhou's powerful strength and majestic aura, but also because Zu Jiming was a person with a delicate and sensitive mind. Ever since he noticed Zizhou's dissatisfaction with him, he has been very cautious these days, trying his best to avoid saying a word in front of Zizhou. He didn't want to ask for trouble by proactively provoking this person whom he was afraid of.
This created a rather interesting picture: Zu Jiming, who was as tall and strong as an iron tower, was now backing out of the room in a hurry, like a young wife who had suffered a great deal of grievance. He looked as if he would be severely beaten if he stayed a moment longer.
Zizhou did not pay much attention to Zu Jiming's actions. He just calmly put the crystal stone shining with mysterious light in his hand into the space. Then he nodded slightly to Zu Jiming, then strode out of the room and headed somewhere else. Although Zizhou really didn't like Zu Jiming, at this moment, the wisest thing to do was to maintain superficial harmony and avoid obvious conflicts. After all, in an environment full of crises and opportunities, unity and cooperation are often more important than personal grudges.
Zu Jiming was very surprised. He had thought Zizhou would be very angry about his entry, but he didn't expect that it would be the end of it. However, Zu Jiming did not dare to go up openly.
After this trip, everyone returned with a full load, their faces filled with satisfaction and excitement. Even Ai Jiangtu, who usually had a stern face and was serious, could not hide his joy at this moment. A rare and barely perceptible hint of joy appeared on his face, which was always as cold as an iceberg.
When Ai Jiangtu saw Zizhou's figure from afar, his steps paused unconsciously. Then, he tried to make his steps look natural and slowly walked towards the direction where Zizhou was. Perhaps it was because Ai Jiangtu's behavior was a little strange that it attracted Zizhou's attention. Zizhou turned to look at Ai Jiangtu in confusion, and looked him up and down, but did not find anything wrong, so he looked away and said no more. In this way, Ai Jiangtu stood contentedly beside Zizhou, and managed to shorten the distance between them.
At this moment, everyone present seemed to be in a very good mood, but they kept silent tacitly, and no one asked others what they had gained. After all, everyone knows very well that since everyone has already gotten what they have always dreamed of, there is no need to pursue the matter too thoroughly. This tacit atmosphere makes both parties feel an indescribable sense of ease and comfort.
Just as Zizhou turned around and was about to leave, a strange feeling suddenly came over him. He was keenly aware that in this seemingly calm sky, a pair of eyes were quietly fixed on him. That gaze seemed to have some kind of penetrating power and lasted for just one second, but in that instant, Zizhou felt like he was being stabbed in the back.
Almost subconsciously, Zizhou turned his head suddenly and looked at the sky above and behind him. However, apart from the azure blue and a few floating white clouds, he did not find anything unusual. But Zizhou knew that things would never be that simple, so he immediately concentrated and mobilized his powerful mental power to try to find the source of that mysterious gaze.
However, no matter how hard he tried to sense, he could not catch any clues. That gaze disappeared without a trace, as if it had never existed. Despite this, Zizhou did not dare to relax at all. He silently buried this strange situation deep in his heart and remained highly vigilant throughout the rest of the journey.
Zizhou understood that a person who possessed the ability to hide his body and spy on others without being noticed was definitely not an opponent they could easily contend with. Fortunately, the other party does not seem to have any ill intentions, at least so far they have not attacked Zizhou and his group. Perhaps as he guessed, their appearance had not yet angered this mysterious being.
However, what Zizhou didn't know was that deep in a forest far away from here, a mysterious man in ancient clothes was standing there quietly. When Zizhou disappeared from his sight, the mysterious man muttered to himself: "Outsider..."
As the words fell, the mysterious man's figure gradually merged into the darkness of the surrounding forest, as if he had never appeared.
