Chapter 424: Chapter 277: The Battle Begins, The Plot of the Northern Heng Saint!
He sensed someone was about to arrive.
Jiang Yuan immediately stood up and walked towards Shu Xiaoxiao and Qin Yun.
“Let’s go! We need to change location!”
Shu Xiaoxiao nodded repeatedly, “We follow your lead, Young Master.”
“We follow Brother Jiang Yuan’s lead!” Qin Yun also smiled.
Jiang Yuan used the Operation of the Minor Five Elements and instantly took them away from this location.
Half an hour later.
An elderly woman showed up in Jiang Yuan’s stone chamber.
She sniffed slightly.
“Damn it, this boy has already found me!”
The elderly woman quickly burrowed out of the ground.
A moment later.
She appeared next to Chu Xiaoyun.
“Daoist Friend Chu, capturing that villain won’t be as simple as we thought!”
“Why?”
The elderly woman replied, “Half an hour before I could find him, he had already left his hiding place! This implies he is in the shadows while we are in the open! He was already aware of our arrival!”
Chu Xiaoyun also nodded slightly, “No wonder the Sky Compass showed some changes on that villain’s location.”
“So he has a rare treasure that can inspect all four quarters, he can find us but we can’t find him!”
The next moment.
Chu Xiaoyun took out the communication token, and informed the Ancestral Master of Chu Family about what had happened.
Then he pulled out a jade charm and sent a message to the people below.
A moment later.
Rainbow lights flew out from underground, appearing around Chu Xiaotian.
“Daoist Friend Chu, what exactly has happened?”
“Wait for a while, until everyone else arrives!”
After about a dozen breaths, all the great cultivators with dharma-nature had emerged from the ground, appearing next to Chu Xiaoyun.
“Daoist Friend Chu, everyone is here, you can tell us what happened now!”
Chu Xiaoyun nodded, then said, “According to Daoist Friend Du’s discovery, that villain might possess a top-grade spiritual treasure, a treasure that could monitor all four quarters.”
“So every move we make might fall into his sight.”
“Under such circumstances, it is impossible for us to catch him deep underground!”
“All the efforts we have made so far are in vain!”
Lei Ming frowned: “So Chu Xiaoyun, tell us, what should we do?”
“Wait!” Chu Xiaoyun uttered a single word.
“Wait till when?” Lei Ming said with displeasure, “We don’t have so much time to waste here, playing a cat-and-mouse game!”
Chu Xiaoyun calmly said, “Wait till my family’s Ancestral Master makes a decision. I have already informed him about the situation here.”
Hearing Chu Xiaoyun mentioning the Ancestral Master, Lei Ming suppressed his irritability and remained silent.
…
Earth-Bearing City.
Chu Family.
A young man in his late twenties in green clothes took out the token in his hand, read the message, and couldn’t help but frown.
“Top-grade spiritual treasure!”
He pondered for a moment, then murmured to himself.
“Looks like I’ll have to ask for help from that senior brother! Borrow his Nine-Nether Qingming Mirror! Only he has got an extra Nine-Nether Qingming Mirror!”
He casually picked up a piece of golden paper.
He wrote on the paper with his finger.
Senior Brother Shen Lang, I hope you are doing fine and making progress in your cultivation.
It has been three years since we last met, and I really miss the days we chatted over drinks.
Suddenly, Chu Yi was killed by a villain in the wilderness, and my grand-daughter was taken away.
I would like to borrow your Nine-Nether Qingming Mirror!
Please give your consent!
Junior Brother Chu Yi.
As he finished writing, the golden paper disintegrated into ashes, leaving the mysterious gold words slowly dissolving in the void.
Time slowly passed.
After a stick of time.
A line of golden texts appeared in front of Chu Yi.
He slowly showed a smile on his face, for he had got a clear reply from the message, confirming the senior brother’s consent.
The artefact would be personally delivered to his mansion in three days.
He then took out the communication token and relayed this information to Chu Xiaotian.
On the other side.
Chu Xiaotian took out his token and read the message within.
“Daoist Friend Chu, what did he say?” an elderly woman asked.
Chu Xiaoyun said, “My family’s Ancestral Master told me the Nine-Nether Qingming Mirror would be in my hands within at most ten days. With this mirror, that villain will have nowhere to hide!”
“Please kindly wait for ten days!”
“Alright! We will wait here for ten days!” Lei Ming also nodded in agreement.
…
Underground, Jiang Yuan opened up another stone chamber casually.
He looked up at those figures standing quietly in mid-air for a long time without moving.
Just standing quietly in mid-air, gazing down.
It appears that they have found out my stone chamber, and guessed that I have a treasure capable of monitoring the surroundings!
From their behavior, it seems they are waiting for support here!
Well then, how could I let them get what they want.
Jiang Yuan murmured.
For such a change, he wasn’t surprised.
Man proposes, god disposes, it’s normal to have such tiny surprises beyond expectation, it’s impossible for things to go exactly as planned.
Furthermore, for him, it would be great to make another breakthrough progress before the battle, but it won’t matter if that’s not possible.
The strongest among them are just four minor realms higher than him.
He can definitely put up a fight!
As for continuing cultivation, that might give them some unknown support.
It could be people, or it could be spiritual treasures.
Since he has guessed their intentions, he can’t let them wait for support calmly.
The unknown is always the most uncertain!
Rather than preparing to sit down and cultivate, Jiang Yuan stood up slowly.
