Upon entering Si Yiqi's tomb, Qingyu immediately began searching for the inheritance.
However, she encountered a problem similar to Yun Si Ning's, and it was simply too big to handle.
At first, she thought the inheritance would be hidden in a more obvious place.
But she soon discovered that the area seemed to consist of nothing more than mountain ranges, with nothing particularly special about it.
At the foot of a mountain, Qingyu was looking around.
"I feel like there are some lingering spiritual energy fluctuations here. Could it be that someone has been here before?"
She felt it carefully, and her mind was constantly thinking.
"This inheritance of Si Yiqi must require some special method to find."
"Perhaps the secret of this heritage lies hidden within those ancient scrolls."
She recalled the ancient scrolls she had read, and images unconsciously appeared in her mind.
"No way!!"
The moment Qingyu thought of a certain possibility, her expression suddenly became quite interesting.
"We can't possibly find the source of the inheritance only by activating the 'Water Drawing Technique'!"
Just as she thought of this, she suddenly felt something and quickly took out a communication jade talisman from her storage bag.
Qingyu originally thought that she would not be able to contact the outside world after entering this place, but she did not expect that the communication jade talisman could still be used.
"Is that Ning'er?"
Qingyu thought it was a message from Yun Sining and took it with some surprise.
"Um?"
She let out a soft murmur full of doubt; it wasn't Yun Si Ning, but Cheng Jin Jin, a disciple of Qingmu Peak.
"Jinjin, what's wrong?"
"Senior Sister, something terrible has happened!!"
Cheng Jinjin's anxious voice came from the communication jade talisman, and Qingyu's heart clenched instantly.
"What's going on!"
"Si Ning... Junior Sister Si Ning has disappeared!!"
Upon hearing this, Qingyu froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.
"You...you need to explain more clearly."
"Senior sister, I haven't seen junior sister Si Ning for several days. I wanted to go to her place to look for her today, but I still couldn't find her."
Have you been to the secret room left behind by my master?
"I've searched that area too, but I haven't found any trace of Si Ning."
"Senior sister, I originally thought she went down the mountain to look for you, but the elders guarding the mountain gate didn't see her at all."
Upon hearing this, Qingyu felt as if an invisible giant hand was tightly gripping her throat, and her heart pounded violently.
Recalling her previous inability to contact Yun Si Ning and the expression on the man in black's face, Qing Yu became even more certain that something had happened to her junior sister.
"Senior sister, what should we do?"
"Don't worry, I'll think of something..."
Qingyu interrupted the communication, her lips were pale, and she looked dazed.
"Lin Youyou..."
Qingyu clenched her fist, her knuckles cracking.
"I already promised to retrieve the inheritance for you, so why are you still targeting my junior sister?!"
Qingyu's eyes blazed with fury, and he momentarily relaxed his vigilance towards his surroundings.
In that instant, a swift black shadow streaked across the horizon.
An arrow pierced the air at an unimaginable speed, emitting a sharp whistling sound, and pointed directly at Qingyu's location.
The dazed look in her eyes had not completely faded, and her body had not yet made any defensive posture.
The arrows arrived like lightning, swift as lightning, carrying a chilling killing intent.
By the time Qingyu realized the danger, she had already missed the best opportunity to escape.
She instinctively tilted her body, preventing the arrow from hitting her heart directly.
With a "thud," Qingyu's shoulder was pierced by an arrow, which went straight into her shoulder blade.
In an instant, the pain abruptly pulled her back to reality from her daze.
Qingyu frowned, and her face turned pale instantly.
She instinctively covered her wound with both hands, a look of shock and pain flashing in her eyes.
Before he could think, several more arrows flew in one after another.
Qingyu rolled away, dodging the arrows in a sorry state.
Only then did she realize that she had been ambushed!
In a flash, Qingyu reacted immediately.
With a flash, she darted away to the other side of the mountain.
When she's running at top speed, it's very difficult for arrows from her competitors of the same level to hit her.
She couldn't see the enemy lurking in the shadows, so she could only try her best to escape.
The wound on her shoulder had begun to bleed bright red blood, and the pain kept stimulating her brain.
"puff--"
Qingyu pulled the arrow out, and a sharp pain shot through her as she let out a groan.
Blood spurted out, and she immediately stuffed a pill into her mouth.
The bleeding stopped soon after, but my shoulder was still burning with pain.
Qingyu knew that the arrowhead must have been coated with a deadly poison.
However, she pulled it out in time and quickly sealed the meridians, which prevented her from collapsing immediately.
"It seems that this was a carefully planned ambush."
If she hadn't reacted quickly, that arrow would have killed her instantly.
"Was it specifically targeted at me, or did I just happen to walk into an ambush?"
Qingyu was more inclined to believe the former, but at this moment she did not know the number of the enemy, so fleeing was the best option.
Soon, several people dressed in long robes appeared within her spiritual sense range, closely chasing after her.
"Five people, all at the Elephant Armor Realm!"
Qingyu narrowed her eyes, a dangerous glint flashing in her beautiful gaze.
"What a grand gesture to make to kill me."
Qingyu continuously circulated her spiritual energy, but the speed was getting slower and slower, and the distance between her and the people behind her was getting closer and closer.
Regardless, the arrow that hit her in the shoulder still had a significant impact on her.
In less than fifteen minutes, the people behind her had closed to within a hundred meters of her.
At this moment, Qingyu suddenly stopped and ceased her escape.
She knew in her heart that if she tried to run away now, she would only gradually wear down her last bit of strength.
"It's better to fight than to die of depression!"
Qingyu suddenly turned around, a bluish-green short blade appearing in her palm; she was ready to fight to the death.
On a nearby hillside, Yun Si Ning, who happened to arrive, also saw Qing Yu fleeing.
"It's Senior Sister, she's injured!!"
