Shang Lu and Pei Gehe wanted to catch up, but Ji Jinshu hurriedly stopped them.
"Wait, don't be impulsive."
Upon hearing this, Shang Lu and Pei Ge stopped and looked at their junior sister with a puzzled look.
Ji Jinshu said calmly, "Fang Ruxing is a direct disciple of the Wanjian Sect. He's quite powerful, and with so many people chasing him, we three wouldn't be a big deal. He won't die anyway."
"What's more, what if the other party is planning to lure the tiger away from the mountain? Let's wait for Green and the others to come back first." Ji Jinshu analyzed.
Shang Lu and Pei Ge nodded after hearing this.
That makes sense.
The three of them returned to the room and waited.
Half an hour later, Golden Winged Bird and Green came back.
The golden-winged bird flapped its wings, looking excited.
The three were slightly surprised when they saw this. Looking at the appearance of the golden-winged bird, they immediately realized that there must be something unusual outside.
Green: "Shushu, we walked around Pei's house and found nothing unusual."
Green: "But not long ago, we saw a figure sneaking out of a door in a courtyard and then entering a house."
"When we approached, we only heard voices talking, and then they disappeared immediately," Green continued to report.
"There should be a formation there, we can't get in."
"However, it wasn't long before the man came out and returned to his room."
Ji Jinshu repeated Green's words, and Shang Lu also added a little information he had learned from the golden-winged bird.
After hearing the two people's description, Pei Ge frowned and carefully recalled the appearance of all the people in the Pei family he had seen.
People with a mole on the left cheek...
A figure gradually emerged in Pei Ge's mind. He slapped his thigh and said, "I know who it is! He's a branch of our Pei family named Pei Yong. He has some status, but he doesn't usually show off."
"And Pei Jiang is his illegitimate son."
Pei Jiang?
Pei Ge's words stunned Ji Jinshu and Shang Lu.
Ji Jinshu thought for a moment and said, "We'll observe his movements carefully for the next two days, and then we'll go to Pei's residence at night. We have to be careful not to alert the enemy."
"Fourth Senior Brother, you still need to tell Patriarch Pei about this."
Pei Ge nodded.
The next day.
Fang Ruxing and others did not return home all night.
As soon as Ji Jinshu and his companions went out, they met Jiang Jinghuai, Song Jue and others who had returned, and the number of people who had been personally taught was mostly gone.
"What's going on? Where are the others?" Pei Ge came forward and looked around.
Zhou Jiulu's face was a little serious as he replied, "Someone attacked last night. Second Senior Brother gave chase, and the others dispersed to search. It seems they lost him."
Hearing this, Ji Jinshu looked at Jiang Jinghuai unconsciously.
No way, the male protagonist, who is as powerful as Long Aotian, actually lost someone?
Jiang Jinghuai felt Ji Jinshu's gaze, frowned slightly, tilted his head, and met her gaze, "What are you looking at?"
Why are you looking at him like that?
Ji Jinshu retracted his gaze and waved his hand. "Nothing, I just thought this was a bit strange. I didn't expect you to lose the person."
Song Jue: "This was just an accident. We will definitely catch him later."
There was no way to argue with him. After suffering several losses, Song Jue decided not to waste any more time and went to report the situation without looking back.
Someone attacked again that night.
All the remaining disciples chased after them, including Ji Jinshu and the other two.
But the three people following at the end suddenly changed direction.
Jiang Jinghuai's target disappeared halfway through his pursuit. When he was about to look for another trace, a black figure suddenly passed by, followed by a red figure.
Jin Sui? ! !
Jiang Jinghuai paused and immediately chased after him.
Ji Jinshu, Shang Lu and Pei Ge took the opportunity to bypass the crowd and quietly sneaked into Pei Yong's residence according to the instructions of Green and Golden Winged Bird.
Pei Ge pressed himself against the door, trying to hear what was happening inside.
Pointing his finger inside the house, he mouthed to the two people, "It seems like there's someone there."
Ji Jinshu pursed his lips, "Fourth Senior Brother, we can communicate through voice transmission..."
“…”
Pei Ge smiled awkwardly upon hearing this, "Haha, I forgot for a moment."
As soon as Pei Ge finished speaking, Ji Jinshu and the others heard footsteps coming from inside.
The three of them were startled and immediately put on shielding talismans to dodge.
"Ouch!" Shang Lu felt pain when Pei Ge bumped into him and subconsciously wanted to scream, but he quickly covered his mouth.
Pei Yong heard a slight noise and turned around to find
There was no one around. He looked around in confusion, then seemed to think he was worrying too much, so he turned and left.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that they were not exposed.
"Fourth Senior Brother, why didn't you keep an eye on it? We were almost exposed." Shang Lu complained in a low voice.
Pei Ge: "Surprise, they're all covered with concealing talismans, how can I see them?"
Ji Jinshu: "Don't talk about it for now, let's follow them quickly, they have gone far away."
The three of them quickly adjusted their state and followed, carefully moving through the Pei family's deep courtyard.
Pei Yong didn't seem to realize that he was being followed. He walked through several corridors, took a look at Ji Jinshu and the others' residence, then left and turned into a door.
After muttering something and making a few hand gestures, the barrier was released and the door opened silently. Pei Yong walked in, and the door closed automatically, as if no one had ever been there.
The three of them pressed against the wall, holding their breath and not daring to make a sound. Through the crack in the door, they saw Pei Yong talking to a man in a black cloak.
Ji Jinshu quietly took out the photo stone and started recording.
"Are they all chasing after them?" The man in black spoke in a low voice with a hint of coldness.
