◇ 【143】 So many "acquaintances" 【Happy National Day】
The others stepped aside consciously.
Xi Lang was very curious about this formation, but had no intention of stepping forward. He pulled Gu Juan aside and watched how Xuanyuan Rong would break the formation.
Xuanyuan Rong first mobilized her true energy to circulate in her body, then walked to the big pine tree. Then everyone watched her disappear before their eyes without leaving a trace, as if she had never appeared at all.
One of Xuanyuan Ao's men hurried forward, walked around the big pine tree, found nothing, and shook his head at Xuanyuan Ao.
"Patriarch..."
Xuanyuan Ao was very calm and unmoved. "Don't worry, Arong has followed me for so many years, and he has more than just this ability."
As if responding to his words, Xuanyuan Rong appeared out of thin air and reported to Xuanyuan Ao, "Master, this formation is not simple. The first layer is an illusion, the second layer is a maze, and we don't know if there is a third layer. It may take some time."
Xuanyuan Ao nodded. "Be careful, we have plenty of time. Ah Chun, be ready to supply Ah Rong with spirit stones at any time."
"Yes!" Xuanyuan Chun answered solemnly, and took out a brocade bag about five inches square from his pocket. He grabbed a handful of spirit stones from it, at least six in total, each the size of a candy cube, just like grabbing a handful of white rock sugar.
Gu Juan leaned against Xi Lang and glanced at Xuanyuan Ao with amusement. Xuanyuan Ao had shown them so many spirit stones. Did he trust them, or did he not take them seriously?
He just glanced at it and took out his cell phone to play; Xi Lang stood tall and graceful, hugged his waist, and only paid attention to how Xuanyuan Rong broke the formation.
Xuanyuan Ao took in the performance of the two and refreshed his evaluation of them.
At this time, a circle of stones suddenly appeared on the ground around the big pine tree, forming a simple flower bed.
The Xuanyuan family members all showed joy on their faces, knowing that Xuanyuan Rong must have solved the second level of the maze. Even Xuanyuan Ao was somewhat moved.
"Hey, isn't this the head of the Xuanyuan family?" An unexpected voice came over.
Gu Juan looked back and saw Feng Feiye climbing up with his disciples with a look of surprise on his face. They seemed very happy to see Xuanyuan Ao here.
Xuanyuan Ao said calmly, "So it's Sect Leader Feng, what a coincidence?"
"What a coincidence." Feng Feiye saw Gu Juan and Xi Lang and said with a forced smile, "You two fellow Taoists are here too."
"Master Feng." Gu Juan greeted politely. Everyone knows how to pretend.
Xuanyuan Ao put his hands behind his back and looked at Feng Feiye, "Why is Sect Leader Feng here?"
Feng Feiye said with a smile: "Oh, that's right. Some time ago, my men noticed that people from your Xuanyuan family were always in a hurry, as if something had happened. I was very worried, after all, we are all from the same lineage of immortal cultivators. So I asked someone to follow your people, and unexpectedly discovered that you had come to Baiwu Mountain several times. So..." Feng Feiye spread his hands.
Xuanyuan Chun and others glared at him.
Xuanyuan Ao, worthy of being the head of a great family, remained calm and composed. "I never thought your sect would have such a skilled tracker who could even evade my spiritual senses. I will definitely seek his advice someday."
Feng Feiye's expression froze, and he laughed dryly, "Okay, okay." He glanced at the big pine tree from time to time, secretly looking for an opportunity to take advantage of.
At this moment, a series of light laughter came from the air.
"Hehehe...it seems that this master is not too late."
Feng Feiye looked up, "Yin Ji!"
"Here it is." A cloud of black mist floated in front of the group and instantly transformed into a humanoid form. It was none other than Yin Ji, the leader of the Demon Sect. She glanced at the group expressionlessly. After not seeing her for so long, Yin Ji looked even more gloomy than before, making it hard to imagine that the laughter just now had come from her.
After a while, a group of people ran up the mountain. They were Yin Ji's disciples.
"Why are you here?" Feng Feiye asked unhappily. Legend has it that there are countless treasures on Shenlong Feishan Mountain, and if one more person comes, there will be another person to share his treasures.
Yin Ji sneered, "Why do you think you are the only one with tracking experts?"
Feng Feiye's face suddenly turned ugly, as if he had been slapped in the face by someone.
Yin Ji snorted coldly, ignored him, and looked at the big pine tree.
Gu Juan was talking to Xi Lang via telepathy.
"It's not good. If we find any treasures that can be used by magic cultivators on the mountain, Yin Ji will definitely compete with us for it." Gu Juan said.
"Then it all depends on your ability." Xi Lang wasn't worried. He had confidence in his and Xiao Juan's abilities. If worst came to worst, they could always hide in the Immortal Residence.
Suddenly, a scream echoed from the void, and a stream of blood spurted out of nowhere. Then, Xuanyuan Rong appeared before everyone, holding his arm, his white sleeve stained red with blood.
"Elder Rong!" A disciple of the Xuanyuan family immediately stepped forward to support her.
"Xuanyuan Chun, hurry!" Xuanyuan Ao shouted.
Xuanyuan Chun immediately took out a Qi-replenishing pill and gave it to Xuanyuan Rong.
Xuanyuan Rong's pale face regained color after taking the Qi-replenishing pill.
"What's going on?" Xuanyuan Ao asked.
Feng Feiye and Yin Ji both pricked up their ears.
Xuanyuan Rong shook his head. "I'm ashamed. The first and second layers of the barrier were fine, but the third layer was truly formidable, with a series of killing formations. I don't know where I went wrong, but I encountered a ball of true energy that chased me like a living being. I retreated to the second layer in time and escaped."
Xuanyuan Ao frowned. This was a difficult situation. Xuanyuan Rong was the most skilled in formations in the Xuanyuan family. If even she couldn't break the formation here, no one else would be able to do it.
He looked at Feng Feiye and Yin Ji inquiringly.
Feng Feiye said helplessly: "Master Xuanyuan, if I had such a capable person under my command, I wouldn't have to follow you."
"You still have the nerve to say that." Xuanyuan Chun muttered softly.
Feng Feiye looked at him with a half-smile, his voice piercing with a sharpness, "So this is the rule of your Xuanyuan family. When is it your turn to interrupt me when I'm talking to your family head? If anyone under me dares to do that, I'll give him a big slap in the face first."
Xuanyuan Chun immediately fell silent, his face flushing. He was almost a generation older than Feng Feiye, but in the world of cultivation, status was determined by one's cultivation level. He could only endure Feng Feiye's insult, unless the head of the family was willing to stand up for him.
Xuanyuan Ao said, "Now is not the time to discuss rules. Sect Leader Yin, do you have any useful formation masters?"
Yin Ji shook her head and said, "No."
If they had known this would happen, they should have called Zhu Mian from the Mengshan Sect. Zhu Mian was quite accomplished in formations. This was the unanimous thought of the three heads of the sect. Unfortunately, in order to avoid more people coming to share the cake, they did not inform others.
Gu Juan and Xi Lang exchanged glances.
Gu Juan smiled and said, "We should be able to break the formation."
Xuanyuan Ao, Feng Feiye and Yin Ji looked over at the same time.
"What are your conditions?" Yin Ji asked. She didn't think these two immortal cultivators were willing to help her for free.
Xuanyuan Ao was even more patient, "Do you two Daoists really have a way to break the formation?"
Gu Juan nodded and shook Xi Lang's hand, "My wife is a formation master."
Feng Feiye was overjoyed, but in order to avoid being restricted, he did not speak rashly.
Xuanyuan Ao nodded, "Would you two be willing to break the formation?"
Xi Lang nodded. "Yes, but we still need you three to agree to one condition. But don't worry, it will be something you can do."
Feng Feiye pretended to be unmoved and said calmly, "You two didn't come here just to enjoy the breeze on the top of the mountain. You are breaking the formation for yourselves."
Gu Juan was calmer than him. "We are indeed here for the treasures that may be found in Shenlong Feishan, but we are in no hurry. If you want us to find an opportunity to come back alone in the future, we can leave now."
"You..." Feng Feiye was speechless.
Xuanyuan Ao pondered for a moment and said, "What conditions do you two Daoists have? Please tell me."
Feng Feiye and Yin Ji didn't object. They were worried that Gu Juan and Xi Lang would really leave and sneak in to break the formation next time.
Gu Juan said, "We want to know Xuanyuan Qing's background. Since he comes from the Xuanyuan family, why is he a demon cultivator?"
Xuanyuan Ao bluntly stated, "Xuanyuan Qing isn't anything special. He was expelled because he colluded with other sects and betrayed the Xuanyuan family's interests. His parents were extremely loyal to the Xuanyuan family, so for their sake, I didn't abolish his cultivation. I don't know why he became a demonic cultivator."
Gu Juan nodded and looked at Feng Feiye and Yin Ji.
Both of them looked defensive.
Gu Juan smiled and said, "As for what conditions we should propose to Sect Leader Feng and Sect Leader Yin, we haven't decided yet. We'll talk about it later. I believe that Sect Leader Feng and Sect Leader Yin are both trustworthy people."
Feng Feiye and Yin Ji both nodded, their thoughts on the matter. If Shenlong Feishan had other formations, Gu Juan and Xi Lang would still be needed to break them. Before that, they wouldn't be foolish enough to attack Gu Juan and Xi Lang.
It was because of this that Gu Juan dared to be fearless towards Feng Feiye and Yin Ji.
"Old man, you try it, but be careful." Gu Juan instructed Xi Lang. He was not good at battle formations and could not help.
"Don't worry." Xi Lang was eager to try.
Xi Lang entered from the place where Xuanyuan Rong came out and disappeared like the breeze.
In less than three seconds, a jungle replaced the big pine tree and appeared in front of everyone.
Xuanyuan Ao, Feng Feiye, Yin Ji and the others all showed joy on their faces. The formation was broken so quickly?
Feng Feiye was eager to rush in.
Gu Juan said slowly, "Master Feng, if you are not afraid of being locked up by the formation, then please go ahead."
Feng Feiye immediately regained consciousness. Where was Polang? Since he hadn't appeared, the formation must not have been completely broken.
