Chapter 1670: Chapter 1641: Zhen Xi’s Motive
“Senior?”
Looking at the Heaven Swallowing Roar’s constantly shifting gaze in front of them, Ning Wangyang couldn’t help but speak.
Although it was the Heaven Swallowing Roar that rescued them from the hands of the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor, Ning Wangyang was equally puzzled about the Heaven Swallowing Roar’s intentions and had no idea what it actually wanted to do.
However, Ning Wangyang was also aware that given the difference in strength between the two parties, if the other side truly wanted to do sothing, he wouldn’t be able to resist. Even a fight to the death would probably be aningless.
The others evidently were not foolish either and did not show any hostility towards the Heaven Swallowing Roar.
“It’s nothing, I just feel that your arrival here seems to be indeed fate.” The Heaven Swallowing Roar shook its head, a hint of a bitter smile appearing at the corner of its mouth.
“Don’t call senior. My na is Zhen Xi, you can just call Sister Zhen.” The Heaven Swallowing Roar spoke.
However, upon hearing Zhen Xi’s words, everyone’s expressions beca sowhat strange.
Sister Zhen?
They all felt that sothing seed off.
The main issue wasn’t Zhen Xi’s identity as the Heaven Swallowing Roar, but rather, why would such a top-level strong entity take so much concern over them, these juniors? Moreover, inexplicably, everyone felt that Zhen Xi seed to be trying to get close to them?
“Um… Sister Zhen, thank you for saving us earlier.” They braced themselves and addressed her, then expressed their gratitude to Zhen Xi.
“It was just a small matter. I’ve been neighbors with that old monster for tens of thousands of years, and there’s often conflict. Even without you, we would still fight from ti to ti.” Zhen Xi smiled and said to them, “It seems like sothing happened, which is why you hid in that cave, right?”
They exchanged glances, and after a mont’s hesitation, Ning Wangyang finally spoke, “To be honest, Sister Zhen, we did encounter a situation outside, which made us hide in here.”
“So it is.” Zhen Xi nodded, “Very few people know about this Enchanted World, and there’s no one from the outside here. You can freely cultivate here. Of course, if you wish to leave at any ti, just let know, and I can send you out.”
Upon hearing these words, they couldn’t help but thank Zhen Xi again, but there was still a subtle feeling of strangeness.
This Sister Zhen… she seed too agreeable, didn’t she?
Each of them had co from Earth and had gone through a lot. They weren’t naïve, and they knew very well that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world, which only made them more suspicious of Zhen Xi’s motives.
What exactly was her purpose?
Regarding the Spiritual Treasure Daoist Honor, its intention had been clear from the start: to possess Ning Wangyang’s body. But Zhen Xi hadn’t revealed any such intentions, which raised more doubts in their minds.
It wasn’t until after Zhen Xi left that they found a place to sit down and began to communicate through sound transmission.
“What do you think this Sister Zhen’s intentions are?” Wang Qianqian asked first.
Zhong Tian shook his head, “I don’t know. Her actions are sowhat enigmatic. But with her strength, if she wanted to do sothing to us, she wouldn’t need to go through so much trouble, right? Previously, there was that monster in the black mist that might have made her cautious, but now that we’re on her territory…”
“I also find it peculiar.” Ning Wangyang furrowed his brows.
But no matter how much they racked their brains, they couldn’t guess what this elusive Zhen Xi was up to, so after so deliberation, they decided to stop thinking about the matter.
After all, for them, being safe was the best thing for now.
After a day of peaceful recovery in the Enchanted World, they sought out Zhen Xi.
“Want to explore around?” Zhen Xi did not oppose their idea to explore, and instead generously said, “Feel free to wander around. If you co across sothing you like, as long as you can take it, you can have it.”
“Take whatever we want?”
Upon hearing Zhen Xi’s words, their expressions grew more peculiar.
The Enchanted World wasn’t large, but it wasn’t small either. For a group unable to fly, it was impossible to explore the entire Enchanted World in a short ti. As they walked, they unknowingly ca across a sowhat ruined Spiritual dicine Garden.
“This place… looks like it was raided…”
Gazing at the desolate garden, their expressions were sowhat helpless.
Similarly, they noticed the remains of broken Restrictions outside the Spiritual dicine Garden.
It seed that there were many places like this in the Enchanted World, but they were all protected by such Restrictions. Only those with enough power could obtain the things inside.
“Hmm?!”
Ning Wangyang’s expression suddenly changed.
“Brother Ning, what’s wrong?”
Ning Wangyang didn’t speak, simply pursing his lips as he moved to the corner of the ruined Spiritual dicine Garden.
In this corner, there was a deep mark.
This was… a knife scar!
Perhaps the person who left it wasn’t very strong, as the aura on the knife scar had long since faded, but for so reason, when Ning Wangyang saw the scar, a sudden familiar feeling arose in his heart.
“Could this… be left by the leader? Did the leader once battle here?!” Ning Wangyang was extrely shocked.
Noticing Ning Wangyang’s reaction, the others quickly gathered around.
Just seeing the scar wouldn’t usually provoke any thought, but after seeing Ning Wangyang’s expression, they couldn’t help but start speculating.
After a mont of silence, Zhong Tian suddenly spoke, “Could it really be the Senior Brother?”
“Just ask, you’ll find out.” Xiao Long spoke.
The group fell silent; all understood who Xiao Long ant by “ask.”
Although Zhen Xi had not shown hostility towards them, if Li Chen had indeed been here, where could he have gone now?
However, just as they were silent, a voice suddenly sounded behind them.
“You know that kid?”
Ning Wangyang and the others’ expressions changed simultaneously, and they imdiately stood up.
“No need to be so tense.” Zhen Xi shook her head with a smile.
The group felt discouraged, knowing that their tension was pointless in the face of an absolute disparity in power.
“A few years ago, indeed a kid ca here with a group.” Zhen Xi recalled and then raised her hand, forming an image condensed from True Yuan in front of the group.
“It’s the boss!”
“It really is him!”
Joyful expressions surfaced on their faces.
“Seems you truly know that kid.” Zhen Xi also smiled: “That kid… is not simple.”
“Of course, my senior martial brother is the most aweso.” Zhong Tian said with a naïve grin.
anwhile, pride flashed across the faces of the girls; in their eyes, praise for Li Chen was also their pride.
Because he was their man!
“At that ti, apart from those few, he had a girl with him, they appeared quite close, do you know her?” Zhen Xi hinted.
“A girl?”
Zhen Xi waved her hand, once again gathering the image of Bai Tianyi’s face.
Clearly, none of them recognized Bai Tianyi, though the words ‘quite close’ from Zhen Xi suggested so implications.
The n had peculiar expressions, while the faces of the girls noticeably darkened.
This bastard, wasn’t he supposed to go to Heaven Realm to find Sister Lin Yi?
“Do you know her?”
“No.” They simultaneously shook their heads.
Upon hearing the group’s response, Zhen Xi seed to think of sothing, revealing a slight ease in her expression.
“Sister Zhen, the person you depicted is greatly important to us, might you know where he is now?” Ning Wangyang hurriedly asked, fearing a slip-up.
“I don’t know.” Zhen Xi shook her head: “After they left here, I had no idea. My duty is to safeguard this area, so I’ve never been able to leave.”
“I see…” Upon hearing Zhen Xi’s words, a trace of gloom appeared on their faces.
Finally, they found so clues about Li Chen, only to see them fade away so swiftly.
“However…” Zhen Xi’s tone shifted: “I can sense that the kid’s talent is quite remarkable, his future achievents might be extraordinary; given your current cultivation level, finding him won’t be easy.”
Upon hearing Zhen Xi’s words, the group frowned.
Although reluctant to admit it, they indeed realized their current cultivation level was still too low.
And Li Chen… the man viewed by them as almost god-like, through all these years, they had no idea what stage he’d reached now.
Seeing the atmosphere building up, Zhen Xi finally directed her attention to An Qin and spoke: “This sister, I see your constitution is extraordinary, I have a top-level Heaven Realm cultivation technique here, would you like to try cultivating it? Rest assured, it requires no compensation.”
This ti, the group was genuinely stunned.
So generous? A free cultivation technique?
They truly couldn’t figure out Zhen Xi’s intentions.
Her previous goodwill towards them could be interpreted as personality traits, but offering a cultivation technique was a bit extravagant, plus it seed to be a top-level one from the Heaven Realm?
“Sister Zhen, if you have sothing to say, please be direct; otherwise, it’s tiring for both you and us.” An Qin smiled bitterly and shook her head.
Zhen Xi blinked her big eyes: “Did I show it that obviously?”
“Yes!” They said in unison.
“Alright then…” Zhen Xi rolled her eyes, muttering sothing under her breath, her shoulders slumped, losing her previous graceful deanor, and she squatted down, both legs folding over.
“I’m just here under orders to guard, picking disciples for the lord, throughout tens of thousands of years, many have co here, but I’ve never t soone suitable.” Zhen Xi grimaced and said.
“You are the first.” Zhen Xi lifted her head, looking at An Qin, she said.
“Please, I implore you, considering I saved you before, please learn it. Once there is a successor, I won’t need to guard this ghostly place anymore.” Zhen Xi sighed, gazing around: “After tens of thousands of years, this ghostly place has no one to talk to, I’m going mad!”
Upon hearing, the group exchanged looks.
