"What's wrong?"
"Young Master Jiang, what's happening to you?"
The urgent voice revealed concern.
But Jiang Feng didn't respond, instead lowering his head to look at the blood-red thunder pattern in his palm.
The pattern squird, twisted, and seed agitated. The intense reaction seed to signify sothing ominous, and this was not the first ti such signs had appeared.
It's the fourth ti.
Originally, his palm's thunder pattern was almost identical to Lei Chuyu's, both a deep purple with a hint of dark red. But since three days ago, everything changed.
The thunder pattern kept changing, as if two things were colliding fiercely. The collision didn't last long, but the stinging pain and burning forced Jiang Feng to suppress it with Spiritual Energy, and after the collision persisted for only a short mont, it returned to silence.
After that, the thunder pattern would flicker once daily, each ti bringing waves of sharp pain, just like when Lei Chuyu and others were pursuing him, clearly soone was constantly activating the pattern trying to locate his position.
A flicker of unease passed a calm mind.
"Soone is following us, they must be targeting ."
A calm statent.
"The thunder pattern has lit up again, could it be that Lei Chuyu's group has returned?"
Cen Yueyue frowned. Initially, she didn't like this group, but over ti found the Divine Thunder Valley disciples rather agreeable. However, if they insisted on pestering, she wouldn't hesitate to show no rcy.
But Jiang Feng's expression was particularly grim, slowly shaking his head.
"No, it's not them."
"Lei Chuyu's injuries are severe enough to kill an ordinary Core Formation Stage cultivator twice over; even if they wanted to linger here, it's impossible for them to stay this long."
"Besides, we've been separated from them for so ti, enough for them to leave the seven hundred leagues range of the Old Capital, they can't possibly return."
Seeing Jiang Feng's gloomy expression, Qingluan tried asking: "Could it be other Divine Thunder Valley disciples? Though I don't understand Thunder Techniques much, if there are uninford Divine Thunder Valley disciples infiltrating and planning to pursue Young Master, activating the thunder pattern, it's quite reasonable."
"Didn't Young Master Lei say to report his na if pursued, it might be worth a try."
Xiao Yu added.
"His status in Divine Thunder Valley shouldn't be low, such a promising Nascent Soul Stage disciple, leading the group to the Old Capital Ruins this ti, might beco the future Valley Master of Divine Thunder Valley."
"That's true, but before leaving he didn't leave any token..."
The group discussed.
While analyzing the seriousness of the situation, their hands continued packing their findings from over half a month, though they didn't encounter any extraordinary fortunes, they did find plenty of scattered items.
Jiang Feng's group found at least two Earth grade Magical Treasures damaged from fierce battles fought by past Cultivation World seniors, and three intact High Grade Xuan Rank treasures. Including middle and lower-grade Xuan Rank treasures, they had more than can be counted on two hands.
Not to ntion the Martial Arts Fragnt and various Daoist Skills left by Cultivation World seniors, even if only fragnts, returning them to the sect for decoding and repair could beco a stepping stone for disciples.
As for the Spirit pills, they were countless. The areas with the most bones piled up were the four city gates and the surrounding moat, full of Dongyue seniors' bones, among which many divine weapons and Qiankun Bags they had left behind, even if dead for years, a wisp of Divine Soul still firmly guarded the Qiankun Bags, making them impossible to penetrate.
If everything could be taken back, it might even sustain several third-rate powers like Fan Yin Sect.
The burning sensation in his palm had disappeared.
The duration of the thunder pattern was very short and differed from last ti. Last ti Lei Chuyu used the thunder pattern to attempt to confine his Thunder Technique—no, interference was a better term. Whenever he activated Scarlet Sun Infinite Heavenly Thunder Art, a conflict arose with Lei Chuyu's cultivation technique.
But this ti such a situation didn't arise. Glancing around the group, Cen Yueyue naturally took his lead, Qingluan's expression was hesitant, while Xiao Yu was visibly bewildered; clearly, the elder's request for them to co to the Old Dongyue task wasn't revealed to her.
"Do you have any more matters?"
Jiang Feng spoke.
Hesitating for a mont, the girl shook her head, still holding Ao Qing, gently stroking with her hand.
"No, I'm just wondering about the purpose of those pursuing Young Master, if they are Divine Thunder Valley disciples, they shouldn't be too troubleso, given Young Master Lei's precedence, and Lei Chuyu's importance in Divine Thunder Valley, cultivated as an heir by the sect..."
"Hmm, good. As future Imperial Concubine, you should remain in Dongyue, no need to venture into Phoenix Heavenly Cave."
"Ah?"
Their pink cherry lips opened wide, revealing a cute tongue inside, not only Qingluan was dumbfounded, Xiao Yu was too, as the pair exchanged glances, the latter imdiately shook her head as if she realized sothing.
"No, no, no! I didn't say it, Miss, though I'm usually not good with words, I definitely wouldn't disclose to outsiders... it wasn't , I didn't reveal it."
While explaining she corrected herself, shaking her head like a rattle drum, eting Cen Yueyue's gaze, yet Cen Yueyue shrugged her shoulders and spread her hands, a gesture identical to Jiang Feng's.
