Ye Yousheng took the flag and ran all the way to the woods.

Now that the projection was shown, he was going to get to the vantage point before the others came.

At this time, he was only less than a hundred meters away from the forest, and he was about to rush in, but the scene in front of him suddenly changed.

Ye Yousheng felt the inexplicable danger, and subconsciously stopped, but a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Ye Daoyou, what's wrong with you?"

It was Tang Yan's voice.

Just when Ye Yousheng was stunned, the surrounding scene began to slowly melt away like a fade, and the woods and lakes that originally looked very real suddenly became like patterns on paintings.

And when all the eyes faded, a new scene appeared in front of Ye Yousheng.

He found himself leaning against a tree, and Tang Yan was standing in front of him, looking at him with a worried expression.

"I'm ......" Ye Yousheng looked blankly at the flag in his hand.

Unlike when I first got my hands on it, the flag has now turned a pale blue, and the only thing that hasn't changed is the number on it.

This is no longer the outside of the Occultation City.

In the past few days, whether I was in the city or not, I always felt a depressing aura. Ye Yousheng thought that it was because he was nervous about the game, so he didn't pay much attention to it, but now, he felt a burst of relief, and even the spiritual power around him seemed to have broken free from the quagmire and returned to the place where it should have been.

"Ye Daoyou, what's wrong with you?" Tang Yan saw that Ye Yousheng's expression was wrong, so he said with concern, "I sent you a message as soon as I entered the secret realm, but you haven't replied to me. I'm afraid that something will happen to you, and I'm still thinking about how to find you, but just now I saw a projection of you pulling out the flag in the sky, so I chased after you all the way. Luckily, I'm fast, and no one else has come to me."

"Message?" Ye Yousheng took out the communication jade handle that he bought in the Occultation City.

The communication jade handle, which had been unusable, kept tinkling at this time, indicating that he had accumulated a lot of information and had not checked it.

Ye Yousheng looked at the flag in his other hand, and then at Tang Yan in front of him, and his voice was obscure: "Competition...... What's going on?"

"Huh? Don't you know?" Tang Yan was puzzled, "This flag of yours is the last one to be pulled out, and the nine flags pulled out in front of you have all fallen into the hands of several monks after fighting, and a few others have already reached the top first."

"After the ninth flag was found, there was no news of the last flag, and now it suddenly shows that you pulled it out." Tang Yan said, looking at Ye Yousheng tentatively, "Ye Daoyou, have you encountered any danger and have been trapped inside and unable to come out?"

"Well, it was delayed for a while." Ye Yousheng didn't say anything specific about the Occult Sun City, and only simply vaguely passed over.

Tang Yan saw that Ye Yousheng didn't want to say it, and he didn't ask, but just said seemingly casually: "Speaking of which, except for Ye Daoyou, many of us have never seen Sect Master Shen Shao of the Qianyuan Sect."

"Oh." Ye Yousheng nodded with a flat expression.

"......" Tang Yan was silent, but when he looked up, he saw that Ye Yousheng had already put away the flag as usual and was about to run away.

"Does Tang Daoyou know which direction to go to the highest place?" Ye Yousheng asked.

"Ah...... At the highest point, you can see it by walking to the east." Tang Yan didn't react, and was stunned for a moment before replying.

Ye Yousheng clenched his fist at him: "Thank you." With that, he lifted his feet and left.

Tang Yan subconsciously followed his footsteps and said incomprehensibly, "Doesn't Daoyou Ye want to know where Sect Master Shen disappeared? Maybe it was Sect Master Shen who opened the back door for him and told him what secrets were hidden in this secret realm, wouldn't it be too unfair to us honest contestants?"

"Is there Shen Yingyao among the nine people holding the flag in front?"

"Nope."

"I got the last flag, right?"

"That's right."

"Since Shen Yingyao didn't get the flag at all, then he also lost his trip to Zhongzhou

Qualification for the tournament will not affect us at all. If it's about opportunities or something, then Tang Daoyou doesn't need to worry. Since Shen Yingyao was born as the young sect master of the Qianyuan Sect, he has already had enough, if he wants to count and care about each item, it can only be self-inflicted, and it will not be beneficial to his own cultivation."

「……」

Tang Yan was so choked that he couldn't speak, and for a while he could only follow behind Ye Yousheng with a complicated expression, watching him fly towards the end of the east.

Ye Yousheng would say this, presumably he must have not received any good treatment in Tianyi Sect since he was a child. So I can only comfort myself by thinking like this while cultivating hard. But it doesn't matter, when the game is over, he will take Ye Yousheng to their Fire Gate to have a look, and Ye Yousheng will be able to know how bad Qin Zhen was to him in the past.

He would definitely not let a genius like Ye Yousheng be wasted under Qin Zhen's hands.

Ye Yousheng, who was rushing to the finish line, naturally didn't know what Tang Yan was thinking, he was still thinking about the meaning revealed in Tang Yan's sentence just now.

The first nine flags have all been pulled out.

Tang Yan had never seen him in the previous game.

Many people have not seen Shen Yingyao either.

Perhaps, this means that those of them in the city of the occultation have been swept into a fantasy. And the people they hadn't seen in the Occultation City were still outside the illusion world, playing normally?

The city of the occult is not the real arena of the game at all.

Thinking of this possibility, Ye Yousheng couldn't help but worry in his heart.

He also agreed with his senior sister to meet again, but now that he got the flag, he went out of the illusion first, and he didn't know what the situation was on his sister's side. I knew that I would be able to get out of the illusion world when I got this flag, so I should have listened to my senior sister and let my senior sister take it.

Tut......

Ye Yousheng frowned and took out the communication jade handle to send a message to Qin Hao, but unexpectedly, as if there was some kind of barrier, he couldn't send any message to Qin Zhen at all.

He tried to send a few more to Shen Yingyao, and the result was the same.

"What's wrong, Ye Daoyou?" Tang Yan couldn't see what Ye Yousheng was doing from behind, but found that Ye Yousheng's speed suddenly slowed down.

"It's nothing, it's just that it's been so long since I wondered, and no one else has come to grab the flag." Ye Yousheng casually found a reason.

Things are a little weird about the city of the sun, so don't tell anyone else.

"It turns out that Ye Daoyou cares about this." Tang Yan was clear, "Ye Daoyou didn't know that when the first few flags came out, it was a bloody storm of robbery, and many people were forced into a safe area. Later, when someone unfortunately died, everyone gradually calmed down, and those who survived chose to go directly to the end of the line and wait for the person with the flag to pass, wanting to do something there."

"Someone has already died?" Ye Yousheng couldn't understand.

Although the referee said before the start of the game that there would be no restrictions on any behavior, Ye Yousheng did not expect that someone would really be able to make a dead hand. It's just a game, and it's normal to have conflicts and injuries, but if you want to pay for this game with your life, you can't help but despise your own life.

"Ye Daoyou doesn't know." Tang Yan sighed, "At first, it was indeed just some small frictions. But after a monk killed the enemy for personal revenge, all the participating monks of the sect where the two of them belonged lost their minds and began to fight. Now it's not as good as before, all the people in this secret realm are from the sect, and we in Xingzhou are in the sect...... Therefore, everyone's concept of the sect is relatively strong, and even if it is not strong, it has to do the same thing as everyone at that time. But in this way, things got worse, and by the time someone came out to maintain order, many people had already been implicated and lost their lives."

As he spoke, Tang Yan smiled bitterly and pointed at himself: "I am the only one left who came out to compete with us in the Fire Gate. I took advantage of the chaos to run out, wanting to find another chance to take revenge, but I met you Ye Daoyou."

Ye Yousheng turned his head to look at him, saw Tang Yan's face full of misery, and thought of what he had said before about how good their sect was, and felt that he could still understand him.

If such a thing happens

Born into oneself...... No, just thinking about it, he couldn't help but go to someone for revenge.

"It's okay, now let's go over together. With the last flag and the projection there, they will definitely attack me first, and then you can find your enemies and raid them when they are not looking." Ye Yousheng said seriously.

「…… In this way, thank you Ye Daoyou." Tang Yan didn't expect Ye Yousheng to be able to say such a thing, and he was very moved for a while. z.br>

Although he has indeed been really good to Ye Yousheng and wants to try his best to pull Ye Yousheng out of the demon cave, he has not been able to really help Ye Yousheng in the end. But now, Ye Yousheng is willing to take the initiative to help him take revenge.

At this time, Tang Yan deeply felt Ye Yousheng's kindness, and vowed that no matter what, Ye Yousheng would no longer be deceived by Qin Zhen and be able to come to their Fire Gate to live a normal life.

Tang Yan's eyes were faintly filled with tears before Ye Yousheng met, and he was embarrassed.

Speaking of which, he was disgusted and guarded against Tang Yan because Tang Yan suspected that his senior sister was not good to him before. But now that he was carrying the flag, others would come to attack him, and seriously speaking, he just helped Tang Yan easily, and didn't make any extra efforts.

I didn't expect this move to move Tang Yan so much, it seems that Tang Yan is really a person who values feelings and stresses righteousness. It's not that such a person can't have deep friendships.

It's just that it would be nice if he didn't misunderstand his senior sister.

Ye Yousheng didn't say anything more, patted Tang Yan's shoulder, and as a comfort, he motioned for Tang Yan to continue to the finish line.

Tang Yan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and followed. I just thought that when I took Ye Yousheng back to the Imperial Fire Gate and saw the door master, everything would be easy to say.

There is no way for him to change Ye Yousheng's deep-rooted thoughts, but the head of the family must be able to.

In the past, there were disciples in the door who didn't know what kind of demon they had, so they had to say that the head of the sect was the big devil, and they used the disciples to sacrifice blood, causing a riot in the door. Fortunately, the head of the sect controlled it in time and did not let such rumors spread, otherwise if Qianyuanzong knew about it, he would definitely use this point to attack the head of the sect.

And after the master's careful treatment, the disciple finally regained his senses and realized his mistake. Because he had no face to see the head again, he invited himself to practice in the back mountain, and he never took a step in his life.

Tang Yan was still angry at that time, and felt that the head of the sect was too tolerant of that disciple. What kind of demon is simply an excuse, how can you be enchanted if you cultivate in the sect in a good manner, and you still slander the head of the sect like this.

But the boss smiled very accommodatingly, telling him that it was just an unintentional mistake, and they wanted to give the person who made the mistake a chance, and they couldn't deny everything he had just because he took the wrong path once.

Before Tang Yan came to the Imperial Fire Gate, he had never seen such a kind and good person as the head of the gate.

If it weren't for the master, then he wouldn't talk about cultivation now, as early as that snowy day, he would have frozen to death in that broken temple.

But the head of the sect is too kind, obviously as the head of a big sect, he can be trampled on the head by a villain like Qin Hao, and the treasures of his own sect are stolen.

Listening to the master, Qin Zhen still grew up watching him since he was a child. When I was a child, I was so obedient and cute, but now that I have grown up, I have turned my face and denied people, and I have done such an ungrateful thing to my elders.

That is, the head has a good temper, otherwise Qin Zhen would have died early I don't know how many times.

Now that she has bullied the boss, she is not enough, she has to pull such an innocent and innocent Ye You into the quagmire again, in a vain attempt to strangle such a rare genius in her own hands.

But it doesn't matter, with him this time, he will definitely protect the head and Ye Yousheng and prevent Qin Zhen from succeeding.

This time, he wouldn't let the head of the sect be as soft-hearted as he did with that disciple.
