Jiang Yuetong smiled, pretending not to see Lu Jingliang's murderous gaze.
Then, as if remembering something, he turned to the sullen-looking Shi Xin beside him and said, "By the way, go and tell them to make another one for each of them and send it upstairs to Lu Shi'an in two hours."
Heart-Eater quickly put down his chopsticks and vanished instantly.
He didn't want to stay at the dinner table for even a second longer. What were these people eating? It wasn't nearly as good as the beast meat in his spatial dimension.
Knowing what he was thinking, Jiang Yuetong couldn't help but chuckle to herself and said, "You've been wronged."
Five days later.
Jiang Yuetong and her group headed into the city, where Ouyang Yi was already waiting at the entrance.
Seeing them approach, Ouyang Yi remained calm, glancing indifferently at the man beside Jiang Yuetong. He thought to himself: It seems like this is their first meeting. Why is this man looking at me so strangely? It's creepy.
Ouyang Yi slowly pulled himself out of his thoughts, coughed, and said, "The crossroads are in the forbidden area of Youyin Island. Follow me!"
Jiang Yuetong followed without hesitation.
Seeing this, Lu Shi'an quickly followed and asked in confusion, "Master, where are we going?"
Jiang Yuetong stared at Ouyang Yi's back, as if afraid he would suddenly run away, and shook her head: "I don't know."
Lu Shi'an: "..."
I don't know if you still dare to follow!
If the two hadn't fought just a few days ago, he would have thought Ouyang Yi was a trusted friend of his master.
They soon arrived at a place separated by a barrier. Ouyang Yi put his hands behind his back and looked up at the bead floating above.
He turned to look at Jiang Yuetong, a smile playing on his lips, and said, "It's just ahead. You can go there yourselves."
Jiang Yuetong met his gaze and remained silent.
Jiang Yuetong scanned the surroundings with her divine sense but found nothing unusual. She noticed faint footprints inside the barrier and frowned, asking, "Has someone just gone in here?"
Ouyang Yi chuckled: "How could that be? Only the island lord can open the barrier here."
Seeing that Jiang Yuetong clearly didn't believe him, he casually waved his hand. However, after waiting for a while, the smile on Ouyang Yi's face gradually faded.
He called out in a low voice, "Someone come here!"
No one responded, and Ouyang Yi's face darkened. He looked at Jiang Yuetong with a hint of shock in his eyes and said through gritted teeth, "Someone did sneak in, so I decided to go with you. Maybe we can find those thieves."
As he spoke, he slowly clenched his hands, which were hanging at his sides.
Jiang Yuetong ignored him and frowned slightly, thinking to herself: Perhaps the old man and the others have already sneaked in.
The old man did have a map, and the person who gave him the map might have told him how to break the barrier. Besides, the male protagonist was with him.
She was ultimately too late.
After Ouyang Yi opened the forbidden area barrier, Jiang Yuetong silently gave a wink to the person behind her, and then used a flashing talisman to disappear with the person next to her.
Left behind, Ouyang Yi stared at the rapidly disappearing light in the distance. Veins bulged on his forehead as he gritted his teeth and said, "Good! Very good! Excellent!"
...
At noon, the sun shone scorchingly in the sky.
Jiang Yuetong and her group hadn't walked far when they felt parched. She subconsciously turned to look at Lü Jingliang, whose face was pale.
"Let's find a shady spot to rest first!"
Lu Shi'an nodded repeatedly.
Jiang Yuetong looked around and saw that the whole place was covered with lush green grass.
She couldn't find it with her eyes.
