Gu Qiaoqiao naturally got out of the car as well, then pointed in amazent towards the front direction. Although it was pitch-dark there, so flickering lights could be seen.
That was definitely not starlight.
It looked sowhat like the glow of a flashlight.
Gu Qiaoqiao took another careful look and hurriedly asked, "Dongfang Yu, take a closer look, is that flashlight light?"
"It’s flashlight light." Dongfang Yu replied calmly with certainty.
"Who could the person holding the flashlight be?" Gu Qiaoqiao muttered to herself.
Next to her, Dongfang Yu remained silent. Brother Li San got off the car and looked at the pitch-dark mountain forest ahead, whispering, "Qiaoqiao, it’s too dangerous here. You two better not go in. Let’s not even talk about there being anyone here, but at night, there could also be hungry wolves roaming in..."
Gu Qiaoqiao softly replied with a hum, and turned to Brother Li San saying, "Brother, it’s okay, you stay in the car. Dongfang Yu and I will go check out the forest."
Brother Li San hesitated for a mont, knowing Gu Qiaoqiao’s temperant, didn’t insist any further, and nodded, but not without reminding, "You two be careful." Then he turned and got back into the car.
In his heart, he knew Gu Qiaoqiao’s arrangent was right; it was impossible for the three of them to enter the mountain leaving the car here. If anything happened, they wouldn’t have any ans to escape.
Moreover, if he went in, he might just end up being a burden to Qiaoqiao.
Brother Li San was self-aware about this.
Gu Qiaoqiao and Dongfang Yu stood by the roadside, carefully observing the situation ahead and around them. At this mont, the flashlight not far away was still swaying, as if starlight had fallen below. Even though Gu Qiaoqiao had excellent eyesight, she still couldn’t discern who was holding the flashlight in the pitch-black night; she didn’t have that capability yet.
Gu Qiaoqiao slightly closed her eyes, carefully sensing everything around. If she couldn’t see it, she wondered if she could feel it.
And just at this ti, Gu Qiaoqiao felt a chill in her heart, the hand hanging by her side clenched slightly into a fist. For so reason, at this ti Gu Qiaoqiao had a very strange feeling, as if a familiar aura was perating above the mountain forest, not far from here, and this familiar aura was definitely not Nie Luan’s.
Because she and Nie Luan weren’t familiar enough for that.
So who could this person emitting the familiar aura be?
Could it be Sect Leader Nie?
But that doesn’t seem possible either; the aura was faint, seemingly close but actually far away. This kind of feeling was truly strange.
She muttered softly, "Why do I feel like there’s a touch of familiar aura here?"
Dongfang Yu raised an eyebrow, surprised, and asked, "Did you feel it just now?"
Gu Qiaoqiao nodded.
And Dongfang Yu remained silent.
This was also the first ti Gu Qiaoqiao encountered such a situation, so she did not rashly venture into the mountain forest, but stood by the roadside, gazing into the distance.
The distant mountains undulated like a tall tiger crouching in the night. This mountain had a very peculiar na called Gala Mountain, because the shape of the mountain was very strange; maybe the people living nearby gave it the na randomly, all in all, it couldn’t be traced, but it had been called Gala Mountain for many, many years.
Without careful sensing, Gu Qiaoqiao could tell that the spiritual energy here was indeed very rich and pure, though not as much as the spiritual energy at her fingertips, but still a notch above other places. It seems Nie Luan has so capability, finding such a hiding place.
But doesn’t he know that hiding like this isn’t a solution, he will eventually be found out?
Not to ntion those gemstones at Yubao Square, even the higher-ups of Archive Room No.1 would settle accounts with him, it’s unknown what Nie Luan is thinking.
Unfortunately, all this can’t be known now, since Nie Luan hasn’t been seen yet.
It was very quiet here, no passing vehicles, Brother Li San’s car had the lights and engine turned off as well.
Brother Li San sat in the car while Dongfang Yu and Gu Qiaoqiao still stood by the roadside, neither entering the forest nor getting into the car, continuing to cautiously observe the terrain here. After a while, Dongfang Yu asked Gu Qiaoqiao beside him, "Can you tell what that strange aura is?"
Gu Qiaoqiao shook her head, "I don’t know."
Dongfang Yu didn’t expect Gu Qiaoqiao to answer, although Gu Qiaoqiao was very skillful in so aspects, even better than him, but in terms of experience, she was lacking; there were things she truly didn’t understand.
Unfortunately, he hadn’t sensed even a bit of it, so he could only rely on Gu Qiaoqiao’s description, naturally unable to explain what it was.
However, he had other ways to teach Gu Qiaoqiao how to distinguish auras; it wasn’t very difficult, soone as gifted as Gu Qiaoqiao would get it instantly.
But at this ti, Dongfang Yu didn’t have the patience to teach Gu Qiaoqiao, so he simply shifted the topic, "I am sure Nie Luan is here, will you go with or wait by the roadside?"
Gu Qiaoqiao pondered, "I will go with you. More people an more hands."
The key was Gu Qiaoqiao was worried Dongfang Yu might pull so tricks.
And at this ti, Dongfang Yu did not regard Gu Qiaoqiao as a little girl. In his eyes, she was a peer with great capability, and he did not want to face Nie Luan, who had acquired his power, alone.
In the past, he didn’t care about Nie Luan, but not now, he hadn’t fully recovered yet. As for why he brought Gu Qiaoqiao out tonight, it was because of the tumult in his blood, thinking that sothing must have happened with Nie Luan.
He hoped for Nie Luan to explode and die, eager to witness that scene, so the knot in his heart could be untied. Of course, having Gu Qiaoqiao by his side was also great.
After all, sotis Gu Qiaoqiao was indeed a very good partner.
So after hearing Gu Qiaoqiao agree, Dongfang Yu promptly said, "Let’s go then, we can find him in about ten minutes."
He naturally referred to Nie Luan.
Saying this, Dongfang Yu took the lead and walked towards the forest below, Gu Qiaoqiao followed. Both were naturally wearing clothes and shoes suitable for entering the mountain, but here, because of the few visitors, and because they didn’t find a path to enter the mountain, just followed the direction they had in mind and walked forward. Encountering a river, they waded through it, coming across a adow, they stepped over it. In the end, Gu Qiaoqiao’s shoes were filled with water, feeling very uncomfortable. She grimaced and gritted her teeth, still following quickly.
In this quiet mountain forest, there was no need for slingshots or guns; randomly drawing talismans in the air was enough to attack the opponent without revealing their identity.
