Chapter 1412 We are a reputable and upright sect after all
Hearing this result, Ye Linglong was not very surprised, but his brows couldn't help but frown.
She looked at the koi in the small jar in her hand, cast a great rebirth spell on it, healed its torn fins, and then crushed a magic pill and fed it to it.
After doing these meaningless things to kill some time, she still couldn't think of any good solution, so she sighed.
"Since we can't go back the same way, let's go inside. Maybe there will be a glimmer of hope."
Having said that, Ye Linglong put away the small jar, cheered himself up and led everyone to continue walking inside.
At times like this, we must not let the feelings of depression and despair spread.
Walking into this dense rainforest and listening to the chirping of insects and birds, if you didn’t know that you were in an ancient battlefield, you would think this place is very comfortable.
Because the air here is very fresh, without a single speck of pollution, and there are no sad memories of crying or howling in the air. It is as quiet as a paradise on earth.
After walking a while inside, the trees became less dense, and a stone path appeared under my feet. On both sides there were cultivated flower beds with flowers blooming in the sun.
Yes, there is warm sunshine and gentle breeze here.
This place and the Soul-Breaking Mountain seemed like two different worlds, but reason told them that this was the same place.
After walking for a while, a lotus pond appeared in front of us. When the breeze blew, the fragrance of lotus flowers instantly spread throughout the entire area.
At this moment, Ye Linglong suddenly raised her hand to signal everyone to stop, and then handed everyone a shrinking talisman. After shrinking her own body, she quickly jumped onto the peach tree in front, hid under the leaves of the peach tree, and regarded herself as a fruit.
Seeing this, all the humans behind her followed her example and hung themselves on the fruit trees, turning themselves into quiet fruits.
After becoming a false fruit, they looked towards the lotus pond from the perspective of the peach tree and were able to see the situation there clearly.
There is a water pavilion in the center of the lotus pond, with white gauze fluttering around it.
Inside the white veil there was an ancient zither and a couch, on which there seemed to be a person lying.
The man was dressed in white clothes as white as snow, with his three thousand black hair casually spread behind him. He stood there motionless, as if he was asleep.
The distance was quite far, so they were not able to immediately know the man's condition. They had no way of judging his cultivation, strength, or race. They could only tell from his breathing that he was alive.
This living judgment refers to his state when facing all of them, not his real state. He may just be a phantom or an illusion. Of course, it is not ruled out that this person really exists.
In this situation where he had no idea what was going on, Ye Linglong chose to hide in a tree instead of looking forward because there were other people here.
Ye Linglong, who was walking in the front, saw at a glance that in the direction opposite them, in the direction where the man was lying, there were several people in dark clothes, walking towards the water pavilion.
After they climbed up the tree, this group of people appeared one after another, more and more, and their characteristics were very obvious.
"It's the demons!"
"It seems that the strength of these demons is about the same as ours."
"Well, there is no doubt about it. Looking at their sneaky and cautious posture, we know that they also entered this place by mistake. So they should be the real demons. It seems that they came in from another direction and entered earlier than us."
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard this.
"Fortunately, they came in first and appeared first. This way, they could not only scout the way for us, but also help us avoid being ambushed by them. If we had gone in first, we would be doomed now."
The others nodded, this was indeed good luck.
"Strange, why do they seem to be short of people?"
"Yes, I counted them, and there are only about seventy of them here, less than a hundred."
"Is it possible that someone died when they encountered those cruel people before? Or was it damaged somewhere?"
"It's possible. If that's the case, that would be great. Our biggest enemy is the demons. Once they are weakened, it means we are strengthened."
"Tsk..." Ye Linglong asked them to calm down and not to let their guard down at all.
They were right. With the demons leading the way, their situation might be better.
So, the hundred fruits on this tree watched intently as the demon brothers in front of them walked onto the small bridge and entered the waterside pavilion.
Their movements were also very gentle, as if they did not dare to easily disturb the people in the pavilion, but apart from their gentle movements, they were not polite at all in other aspects.
After they got to the waterside pavilion, they started to pack up the things in the pavilion. The scene was like a group of thieves who emptied the owner's house while he was sleeping.
Not only did they take things away, some of them even ran to the lotus pond to pick lotus flowers and even the lotus leaves, which they carefully picked off and put into their rings.
The humans who saw this tree were all stunned.
Compared with the demons who uproot every blade of grass wherever they go, they have been too reserved along the way!
Although they picked up everything, they did not pick up some small items that they thought were unnecessary.
According to the demon clan's standards, they have missed too many things before!
"We're not really going to let them evacuate and leave so easily, are we?" Someone in the team started to get anxious.
"No, aren't we still squatting here?" Ye Linglong chuckled, "Let them move, and when they find a way out, we can just follow them out and start robbing, right?"
"Ah? Isn't this too despicable? We are a reputable and upright sect after all, and we have never..."
He suddenly stopped talking in the middle of his speech because all eyes were now on him.
At this time, Shao Changkun next door patted him on the shoulder.
"You've never experienced it before, so isn't this a chance for you to experience it for yourself?"
On the other side, Duan Xinghe also laughed.
"Brother, let's put morality aside. You have no morals. How can you not rob?"
At this time, Qi Weiduan, the chief of Bingpo Palace, said with a smile: "The famous and upright sects did not say that we cannot give people a taste of their own medicine."
Mingzhu sighed and said, "Amitābha, I saw nothing."
…
Everyone reached a consensus at the first opportunity.
As long as everyone abandons morality at the first moment, they will be free from constraints and gain the freedom to rob.
However, at this moment, the originally quiet water pavilion in front suddenly moved.
Those cautious and sneaky demons suddenly gave up their petty thefts and ran away without hesitation. Some of them even gave up the treasures that were right at their fingertips and they just ran away without hesitation, decisively and resolutely.
This sudden scene made Yishu feel nervous. Could something have happened?
