Chapter 278 No Need for Substitutes
Chen Yan walked over quickly and took the identity jade token. It was indeed Pei Wusu’s identity jade token.
Her face changed.
Geng Gaojun approached Chen Yan and asked curiously, "Junior Sister Chen, what happened to your Shura team? Your team member Pei Wusu seems to be using... a strategy to lure the tiger away from the mountain."
Just at this time, another spirit boat arrived.
That was Yu Changying's spiritual boat.
"Hey, why are it you?" Zhuge Youlin was shocked when he saw the Taiping team.
Geng Gaojun glanced at the people in the next spiritual boat, and then said to Shen Yan: "Junior Sister Shen, is there an internal conflict in your Shura team? You don't have to tell me, but I have to admit that Pei Wusu is definitely a general of your Shura team. If he leaves, it will be a big loss for your Shura team!"
Chen Yan held two identical jade identity cards tightly in her hands. After hearing Geng Gaojun's words, she looked up at Geng Gaojun's slightly rough face.
"Excuse me, Brother Geng."
After saying that, Chen Yan jumped onto the Shura team’s spirit boat.
Geng Gaojun laughed heartily a few times, "Junior Sister Shen, congratulations on getting a place in the 'Five-Academy Plan'. I hope your Shura team will not embarrass our Western Region Academy in the Central Region."
Chen Yan looked back at Geng Gaojun, "Brother Geng, have a safe journey."
The Taiping team's spirit boat moved forward, while the Shura team's spirit boat slowly circled in the air.
"Where's Pei Wusu?!"
Chen Yan looked at them and said, "We've fallen into a trap. He didn't take the identity jade token with him. Instead, he quietly threw it on the spiritual boat of the Taiping team to lure us away. The route he wants to leave is definitely not this one! However, according to the departure time of the Taiping team, he should not have gone far. Let's split up and chase him immediately!"
Yu Changying sneered, "What are we chasing after? He's determined to leave us, and he's even used some tricks. Are we still chasing after him? I'm not going! If he wants to leave, then let him leave!"
"Go ahead if you want to chase her. I won't accompany you any more."
"Sister Changying, don't be angry." Wen Yuchu sighed helplessly.
Yu Changying gritted her teeth and said, "Angry? Is that bastard Pei Wusu worth my anger? If he just wanted to leave, maybe I could keep him, but now he's using tricks to lure us away. How much does he not want to see us?"
Jiang Xianyue said coldly: "He's gone too far."
Zhuge Youlin said: "That's right! I also think he went too far this time. How could he just leave like that!"
Xiao Zechuan and Wen Yuchu knew the truth, but they could not say anything resentful. After all, Pei Wusu had to shoulder too heavy a responsibility, and his personal pursuits and emotions had to be put last.
Chen Yan rubbed his brows with his fingers and asked coldly, "Don't you want to catch him and beat him up? We are not begging him to come back now, but to tie him back. If he leaves so easily, can you bear it?"
Yu Changying narrowed his eyes, the anger burning in his heart almost erupting.
"Yan Yan, you are right. I must get rid of this anger! Let's go and catch him now!"
Chen Yan reached out and grabbed Yu Changying: "Wait, I thought of someone, maybe he can help us find Pei Wusu faster."
"who?"
"Qingwu."
"Yes, Qingwu is able to tell fortunes. With him around, there's no need to worry about not finding Pei Wusu." Zhuge Youlin's eyes lit up.
"Let's go find Qingwu first."
…
Inside the inn.
They found Qingwu and told him about Pei Wusu's departure.
Qing Wu showed an expression of disbelief, "How could Wu Su leave? I clearly..."
He seemed to have thought of something. Without Chen Yan and the others saying anything, he immediately took out the divination tools and calculated the fate between Pei Wu Su and the Shura team.
"What's going on?" Zhuge Youlin couldn't help but ask when he saw Qingwu staring at the divination totem.
Qingwu pointed at the divination totem seriously and explained: "Look, the eight points in this totem correspond to you. Originally, they formed a circle, but now one point is protruding, which means he wants to leave the Shura team."
Hearing this, Chen Yan and the others fell silent.
Is it really irreversible?
Seeing their gloomy expressions, Qingwu suddenly smiled softly: "However, if you look carefully, there is a red circle outside the original eight dots, and the dot representing Wu Su is still inseparable from the red circle. This means that his fate with the Shura team has not yet ended. He is still a member of the Shura team. In other words, he has been in the Shura team from beginning to end and cannot leave."
"Really?" Zhuge Youlin asked excitedly.
Qingwu nodded: "Yeah."
After Zhuge Youlin's excitement subsided, he frowned and said, "Qingwu, can you figure out why he left?"
Qingwu shook his head, looking embarrassed: "I'm not yet able to figure it out."
Chen Yan asked: "Qing Wu, can you figure out his location?"
"I'll try it." Qingwu looked up, his handsome face showing a serious look. After saying that, he immediately began to fiddle with the divination tools.
After a moment, Qingwu frowned.
"You don't have to look for him. The hexagram shows that you won't find him. However, you will meet him in the next one or two months."
"Within one or two months? Did Pei Wusu go to the Central Region by himself?" Jiang Xianyue looked slightly surprised.
Upon hearing this, Qingwu lowered his head and carefully analyzed the information on the hexagram: "The hexagram shows that he will most likely be in the central part of Guiyuan Continent in the future, and the central part corresponds to the central region, so you will most likely run into him in the central region."
Chen Yan frowned slightly.
He actually took the initiative to go to the Central Region? !
Wen Yuchu's expression was slightly restrained. He looked at Chen Yan and said in a voice transmission: "Captain, it seems that we can only wait for the right time. As the saying goes, the more dangerous the place, the safer it is. Qingwu said that we will meet him again, don't worry."
Chen Yan sent a message to Wen Yuchu: "'Thousand Jade Mask' is still useful to Pei Wusu, so..."
Wen Yuchu: "Captain, don't worry, I will take the Thousand Jade Mask to the Central Region."
…
Chen Yan and his companions finally returned to the Western Region College and did not look for Pei Wu Su again.
Because they believe in the information calculated by the Qingwu hexagram.
Chen Yan reported to Dean Xuanyun that she couldn't find Pei Wusu. Dean Xuanyun told her that he would send someone to find Pei Wusu and tell her if there was any news.
Dean Xuanyun also said to her: "Pei Su has now withdrawn from your Shura team. I have selected someone to replace Pei Su in your team. In two days, I will let that person..."
Chen Yan raised her eyes and said in a somewhat tired voice: "Dean, the Shura team is not short of people and does not need a substitute. Pei Wusu has not withdrawn from the Shura team. Dean, we appreciate your kindness."
