"You... are smarter than I imagined." Lu Ye said calmly after a mont.
Since he had been recognized, there was no need to continue pretending.
Hearing this, Jiang Qingge stopped her falling tears and smiled, "Are you complinting ... I’ll take it as a complint."
Putting the face covering back on, Lu Ye suddenly had a slight shift in his gaze.
"It seems that the support troops from the Jiang Family have arrived, I’ll leave now." he didn’t have the energy to deal with waves of gratitude, so it was better to leave and enjoy so peace.
Jiang Qingge gazed at him and asked, "Then... will you co again?"
Unfortunately, before this question could get an answer from Lu Ye, his figure had already disappeared from the tent.
Jiang Qingge felt slightly disappointed, but not as dejected as before.
At least, she... had discovered Lu Ye’s hidden identity!
He said she was smart, aning that very few people had discovered his identity, and it was likely that for now, she was the only one who had.
After all, Lingyue definitely hadn’t noticed.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have excitedly called him a mysterious master with that mory Stone earlier, but would’ve directly called him brother-in-law instead.
While Jiang Qingge was pondering.
In the distance, a group with an extrely heavy atmosphere, holding the possibility of perishing here, charged into the outskirts of the swamp, heading straight for the mining area...
...
On the other side, Lu Ye found an uninhabited area, leapt onto a large tree, and began to review the items in his possession.
The first thing he took out was the eight crystal cores of the Innate Realm black mist evil spirits, each containing a considerable energy fluctuation.
"These things... seem suitable to act as Crystal Stones for powering an Array, or for grinding into powder for drawing symbols, it’s just right."
Although the energy inside was sowhat strange, it could still be used, and there was likely a market for it.
Lu Ye didn’t store these items in the Myriad Dao Pavilion warehouse but instead kept them in his Storage Ring.
A mont later, Lu Ye pulled out a square box made from unknown materials that emanated a black tallic texture.
Upon closer inspection of the obscure patterns on it, Lu Ye was slightly surprised.
These are... Sealing Array Patterns!
Moreover, they were left by a highly skilled Array Master, and with Lu Ye’s knowledge of Array Dao, he could only recognize that it was related to sealing.
Could it be that sothing is sealed inside?
Recalling the rumors from the Northern Territory about the Black Stone Wilderness where a dense black mist once erupted, as if a demon had escaped from within, Lu Ye was thoughtful.
Could it be that a notorious demon from the continent is sealed in here as well?
Just then, a faint voice erged from inside the square box.
"Huh, how did I end up in a different place?"
Staring at the square box, Lu Ye’s eyes flickered, indeed sothing was sealed inside.
"Who are you, and why are you sealed in here?" Lu Ye asked in a deep voice.
"Who are you, little one?" The elderly voice inside the box sounded puzzled, "How did you find that place? It shouldn’t have been possible, in such a small place like Xuanzhou, no one should have discovered that array."
Hearing this, Lu Ye’s mind raced.
The tone of the sealed person indicated they were not from Xuanzhou, and seed to look down on it a little.
"You don’t need to worry about who I am, I just happened to find this box and heard soone speak, so I got curious." Lu Ye said nonchalantly.
"You’re an interesting child, ah, it’s been many years since I’ve spoken to anyone. Go on, if there’s anything you want to ask, feel free to try, maybe if I’m in a good mood, I could answer you a little."
Although he was sealed in this box, from his tone.
This elderly man’s emotions seed quite peaceful, rather than filled with resentnt.
"Earlier you ntioned that place, where is it? Is there a dangerous place in the Northern Territory?"
After pondering for a mont, Lu Ye attempted to inquire, hoping to extract so information.
"Haha, calling it dangerous would be an overstatent. It’s just that the person who set up the array there had superb skills far beyond what local Array Masters in Xuanzhou could match."
This much was true.
Even Lu Ye, who was only superficially familiar with Array Dao, could see the excellence of that naturally ford array.
After a mont of contemplation, Lu Ye continued to ask, "Then... what about the altar within the array?"
The old man was silent for a mont before saying, "That’s sothing crafted by so outsiders, not from this continent."
"And what about the statue in the altar?" Lu Ye finally asked the question he was most curious about.
Unexpectedly, the old man abruptly stopped speaking.
The square box fell silent, and Lu Ye was puzzled. Could it be that the sealing array inside had activated and caused trouble for the old man?
Bringing the box closer, Lu Ye couldn’t help but gently knock on it, "Old sir, are you alright?"
"I’m not dead, stop knocking..." after a while, the old man replied with a hint of impatience.
"Then let’s continue with the previous question." Lu Ye imdiately said.
"Ah, little one, there are things you shouldn’t ask. Knowing too much can do you harm." The old man sighed softly, offering advice with a heartfelt tone.
"From your tone, I’ll guess you’re only in your twenties. At your age, having the strength of a Postnatal Innate Realm should qualify you as a genius in Xuanzhou."
"Cultivate seriously... knowing too much is of no benefit to you."
"What if I say, that statue is actually my wife?" Lu Ye said casually.
Saying it sounded so mysterious made him sowhat curious, is Jiang Qingge’s identity that intimidating?
"Impossible... absolutely impossible!"
The old man’s tone suddenly fluctuated as if he had heard the biggest joke.
"Little one, you mustn’t speak carelessly... to desecrate soone like that will bring upon the Nine Nether Divine Punishnt!"
It was evident that the old man had genuine reverence for the person depicted by the statue.
Seeing as he seed unable to extract information about the statue from the old man, Lu Ye shook his head, storing the box back into his Storage Ring.
Estimating that by now, the support troops from the Jiang Family should have reached the mining area, Lu Ye didn’t feel like heading back just yet.
The concentration of Heaven and Earth Source Qi here was adequate, and Lu Ye imdiately activated the Ancient Star Scripture to cultivate, stabilizing his recently advanced Grandmaster Fourth Layer Realm.
...
In the mining area.
When the team on high alert, ready to fight the black mist evil spirits at any mont, rushed to the outskirts of the mining area...
they encountered no obstacles.
Within the group, a girl holding a Cyan Moon Sword noticed the figure of a woman in a white dress standing in the mining area and sped over to her.
"Sister! Are you alright?!"
