Chapter Seventy-Three: Waiting
Ling Yifan walked casually in this buffer zone, and came to a central position slightly closer to this area and stopped. According to Ling Yifan's speculation, I'm afraid it won't be long before people pass by here one after another, especially the people from the Xuanming Sect. The three people who chased and killed Ziyun hadn't gone back for a long time, so presumably Qiu Feng and the elders of the Xuanming Sect would naturally follow this direction.
Ling Yifan said in his heart: "I'll wait here for a few days, if there is no movement within three days, I will leave for the core area, if I meet you, hmph, I want to see who wants who's life." ”
Ling Yifan erased the seal on the jade slip, so that if Qiu Feng appeared within a hundred miles, they would sense each other.
"Since you want my news so much, I will fulfill you. Ling Yifan said coldly.
At this time, in a mountain forest seven or eight hundred miles away from Ling Yifan, a total of four people were walking on this land. One of the old men, and the other three looked much younger, and all three of them consciously leaned back to the old man, which could show their respect for the old man. Clear-eyed people know at a glance that among these four people, the old man is naturally the leader, but among these four people, there is a familiar figure of Ling Yifan, and he is Qiu Feng.
The old man muttered in his heart as he walked: "These few wastes, three people went to chase and kill a woman, and there was no response for so long, and I was dizzy when I saw the woman, I'm afraid that I won't catch that woman and run to where I am happy, right?" The old man muttered in his heart, and the corners of his mouth showed a helpless wry smile, "It seems that after you go out, you have to discipline these little rabbit cubs well." ”
Qiu Feng followed the old man to the left side, without speaking, he hoped that Ziyun could escape the pursuit of the Xuanming Sect, and he also hoped that the Xuanying Sect would be able to capture and kill Ziyun. Regarding the contradictions in his heart, Qiu Feng couldn't say clearly, and the time spent together made him still have a little affection for Ziyun. But he never thought that Ziyun would break with himself, and break with himself without hesitation for the sake of a dead guy, which made Qiu Feng very unhappy in his heart. Starting from his own interests, he didn't want Ziyun to escape from the pursuit of the Xuanming Sect.
Three chase and kill one, if there is no accident, Ziyun Bacheng is more than lucky, Qiu Feng sighed secretly in his heart, "Leave it to fate, these are all your own faults, whether you can escape and ascend to heaven depends on your creation, who makes you stubborn and unwilling to cooperate with me." ”
The old man sensed the sound transmission jade slip in his hand, and did not perceive the situation of the three people, so he could only walk forward in the general direction of the pursuit of the three people. Although he knew that the direction he was tracking was not necessarily correct, perhaps the three of them had already gone in other directions in the process of chasing. But this old man can't help it, he just has an ordinary jade slip in his hand, once it is beyond the range of induction, the divine sense imprint left on the jade slip will disappear. Of course, there is also a situation where the three of them have died, but he can't tell, unless he senses the law, or has a special jade slip.
The old man reluctantly put away the jade slip, and could only rush forward intuitively, avoiding those nasty spirit beast caves along the way.
This old man is the elder of the Xuanying Sect, named Jiang Yuntian, a seventh-order cultivator of the Yuanying Sect, and he is just an ordinary elder in the Xuanying Sect. This Yuan Infant Seventh Order may be highly respected in the second-rate forces, but in the first-rate forces of the Xuanying Sect, it can only be regarded as okay. You must know that the sect master of the Xuanying Sect itself is a cultivator, and the first elder of the sect entered the holy period three years ago, and there are some elders of the ninth order of Yuanying under the sect, not to mention the seventh order of Yuanying.
Despite this, he is an elder after all, and he still has some rights. Before entering the secret realm this time, he was secretly given the task by the young sect master, that is, to pay attention to the news of Ling Yifan, who was related to the Water Moon Sect, and kill him if he had the opportunity. Although he didn't know why the young sect master wanted him to deal with a junior monk in the early stage of mortals, he knew that if he could handle this matter well, it would be a great achievement. As for Ling Yifan, who didn't know how to offend the young sect master, he could only sympathize with it a little in his heart, people who offended the young master rarely ended well, and he could only blame that Ling Yifan for being unlucky.
The corner of Jiang Yuntian's eyes glanced at Qiu Feng, who was slightly behind beside him, and he knew that it was probably not only others who received the young master's explanation.
This Jiang Yuntian secretly thought in his heart, "According to Qiu Feng, this Ling Yifan died in the lair of the spirit beast, and only Qiu Feng and the girl named Ziyun knew about it. If Ziyun is killed, then only Qiu Feng in front of him will know about it, and if Qiu Feng is killed at that time, then only I will know about this matter. If I make up a reason and take the credit for killing Ling Yifan on myself, I will definitely be able to gain a lot of benefits from the young master at that time. ”
Qiu Feng naturally didn't know what Jiang Yuntian was thinking about, Jiang Yuntian had a plan in his heart, so he turned to Qiu Feng and said: "It's too dangerous for you to act alone, just follow me for the time being, before you go out, I will return your reward to you in full, of course, about the news that Ling Yifan has died, you don't tell anyone else." ”
When Qiu Feng heard this, he immediately felt happy in his heart, he didn't expect that this Elder Jiang would actually plan to return the reward just now to himself. Busy said: "Elder Jiang, just rest assured, this matter is rotten in my stomach, and I will never mention it to anyone." ”
Jiang Yuntian nodded with satisfaction, the other two mortal monks who were now following him were all his henchmen, including the three who went to hunt down Ziyun in front.
After traveling for two days in a row, going around many places and caves where spirit beasts haunted, this group of four people gradually approached the area where Ling Yifan was.
Suddenly, Qiu Feng, who was following behind the old man, had a great change in his complexion, and his face was full of incredulity. Stunned in place, Jiang Yuntian noticed the strangeness behind him, and turned to look at Qiu Feng, who was stunned. asked in a deep voice, "Qiu Feng, what's the matter with you?" At this time, Jiang Yuntian also discovered that something was wrong with Qiu Feng, as if he had discovered something incredible.
At this time, Qiu Feng, who was stunned, swallowed his saliva fiercely and stammered: "He... He... Not yet... Die..."
Jiang Yuntian frowned, "What did you say, who didn't die?"
"I, I mean Ling Yifan, he's not dead, he's still alive..."Qiu Feng's stunned expression eased slightly. "Just now my jade slip sensed his cunzài. ”
Jiang Yuntian raised his eyebrows, "Hmm, didn't you say that he died in the lair of the spirit beast? How could he not die? You better explain it to me." ”
Qiu Feng was in a daze now, he and Ziyun had clearly determined that Ling Yifan had no chance of surviving before leaving, how could he appear again now. Even he didn't know what was going on.
Qiu Feng came back to his senses and hurriedly explained: "Elder Jiang, I don't know what's going on, Ziyun and I obviously left after we were sure that he didn't have the possibility of surviving, as for how he didn't die, maybe there was some chance, right? What's more, I didn't hear the fight at the time, and I couldn't think of anything other than what he might get. ”
Jiang Yuntian pondered for a moment, and said secretly in his heart: "This Qiu Feng doesn't look like he is lying, if he is really lying, he is just trying to deceive me of some benefits, but now in order to hunt down his companions, those benefits are in my hands." Besides, when he found Ling Yifan's traces, he couldn't say it. Judging by his expression just now, it was not a fake, and it was obvious that this incident was very unexpected to him. ”
After thinking about it properly, Jiang Yuntian had a plan in his heart, and said to Qiu Feng: "Okay, since he is not dead, he will give you another chance to make meritorious contributions, you go first, find Ling Yifan's location, and then follow him and find a way to stabilize him." I'll follow you, we'll get in touch with Guò Chuan Yu Jian, and I'll be there later, and I'll personally deal with Ling Yifan, and the reward will be doubled after the deed is done!"
Qiu Feng settled down, and after making an agreement with Jiang Yuntian, he searched in the direction of Ling Yifan through Guò Yujian's sense. Jiang Yuntian followed Qiu Feng for dozens of miles, and walked towards the direction where Ling Yifan was.
At the same time that Qiu Feng sensed Ling Yifan, Ling Yifan also sensed Qiu Feng's storage. Looking down at the jade slip in his hand, Ling Yifan said faintly: "It's finally here." ”
Qiu Fengtong guò Yujian tentatively transmitted a message to Ling Yifan, and roughly inquired about Ling Yifan's recent situation and the grief in his heart when he mistakenly thought that Ling Yifan had encountered an accident.
In this regard, Ling Yifan just smiled coldly, and only replied, "Let's talk in detail when we meet." ’
Ling Yifan stood up, glanced in the direction Qiu Feng was coming from, raised his footsteps, and did not face Qiu Feng, but turned around without hurry, walked towards the central area, and waited for Qiu Feng behind him to catch up...
