Chapter 89 Xiaoqing has disappeared
"They survived; not a single one died," Jiuying said coldly.
"Not bad, barely passing." Jiuyou smiled. The group of black beast demons were not difficult to deal with; a mid-level spell could turn them into idiots. But the five cursed beast demons were a bit more troublesome.
It's truly astonishing that none of them died.
Jiuying clenched his fists, realizing that he had grown to this extent without even realizing it.
Jiuying narrowed his eyes. "Next time, I'll take care of you all."
He waved and turned to leave. No one was there to chat with her anymore. After that, Jiuyou flew back, but she didn't go back to Su Ming's side. Instead, she went straight back to the ancient capital.
On Su Ming's side, there were five enormous corpses lying on the ground. They were all five of those cursed beast demons, and they were all frozen solid.
Su Ming and Mu Bai couldn't defeat the three cursed beasts, so they managed to get them to Mu Qianjin's side. Mu Qianjin then used the Ice Crystal Bow to kill them all.
But she also fell into a coma as a result.
At this moment, Ge Xin was supporting him. Green Brother was holding his own arm, and Ge Xin could not reattach it. She could only provide simple treatment. If he wanted to recover, he would have to go back to the ancient capital academy to find those teachers.
"The Black Vatican!" Mu Bai gritted his teeth. Bo City was theirs back then, and it still is theirs now!
"Let's go back. I can't figure out what's going on with the Black Vatican," Su Ming said.
The Black Vatican appeared without any warning, and there was no one in sight directing them. No one could possibly know what they were doing in the Helan Mountains.
They came all this way and gained nothing. If it weren't for the fact that Mu Qianjin had come at the last minute and was in the group, they would probably have lost people.
"Ring ring ring..."
Su Ming was stunned for a moment. He seemed to be able to hear what Xiao Qing was saying, and there was a consciousness in his mind expressing Xiao Qing's meaning.
"Ring ring ring..."
Xiaoqing grabbed Su Ming's clothes and scratched at his body.
"You're saying there's something left inside me by that big bird?"
Ring ring ring...
Xiaoqing nodded; that was exactly what she meant. Su Ming's gaze sharpened as he began to examine his body, but he found nothing amiss, either in his consciousness or in his physical form.
Same as when I came.
"I'll check again when I get back to the ancient capital," Su Ming said to Xiao Qing, who then calmed down.
On their way back, they encountered many hunters preparing to go up the mountain, all because of the influence of the Bifang phantom. Among them were many powerful teams, and they couldn't see through them at all.
"Young man, excuse me, you're coming back from the front, right? Would you mind telling us?"
A hunter walked up to them with a smile and sat down.
At night, the sense of direction in Helan Mountain becomes very poor, and it is easy to go the wrong way. They also rest in place. This place is very safe, with no poison or demons, and the air is fresh, making it very suitable for people to rest temporarily.
Besides Su Ming and his group, there were also many hunters from outside. After arriving, they rushed into Helan Mountain, but had to stop and rest because of the poor sense of direction.
At a glance, you can see hundreds of people and more than a dozen campfires. And this is just the number of people in one direction. People are coming in from all directions of Helan Mountain. Those hunters have no idea what danger is.
All they knew was that good things, treasures, money, money, money. They thought that Helan Mountain might have rare treasures, and if they could find them, they would become rich. With this in mind, they flocked to Helan Mountain one after another.
The hunter's name was Ye An, and he was considered a well-known hunter in his city. He had come here for the treasure in Helan Mountain.
His observation skills were very sharp; he knew at a glance that Su Ming and his group were not preparing to enter from the outside.
Judging from the bloodstains on their clothes and the fatigue on their faces, they had just gone through a major battle. They would not encounter danger coming in from the outside; the danger would only come once they went inside.
Others didn't notice, but he did. Ye An's major was shadow magic, which allowed him to see everything around him in the dark. That's why he came over to chat with the group.
"What's wrong?" Su Ming had disappeared somewhere. Mu Qianjin had just woken up and was quite weak. Ge Xin was taking care of her. Green Brother looked like he had no will to live. Only Mu Bai was still relatively normal.
"Just asking, I heard that Helan Mountain is quite safe, with no demons in either the outer or inner areas, which is very rare in a demon territory. But the authorities have never been able to give an explanation. In addition, Helan Mountain has never had many resources, and the people who come here are also rare. I don't think you guys have encountered any demons, have you?" Ye An asked cautiously, glancing at Brother Green.
Although he covered it with his clothes, it was empty underneath, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that something was missing.
"There is something there. We encountered the Black Church's Black Beast Demon and Cursed Beast Demon inside. You should be careful when you go over, since I don't know if you have any left," Mu Bai warned. Whether they believed him or not was not Mu Bai's concern.
"Black Beast Demon?" Ye An was startled. The Black Church had come to Helan Mountain?
His instinctive reaction made him disbelieve it. Even if the Black Vatican came, they would do so secretly. Now that so many people have come to Helan Mountain, each of them could drown those Black Vatican bastards with a single spit. But upon closer reflection, it was indeed possible.
The appearance of that phantom meant that Helan Mountain would not be peaceful, so it was perfectly normal for the Black Vatican to come.
After thanking Mu Bai, Ye An returned to his team and reminded the other members to be careful, since the Black Vatican was capable of anything, and being in the middle of nowhere made it extremely dangerous.
"What was that doing just now?" Su Ming walked over and asked.
"It's nothing, they just asked for directions. I told them about those black beast demons," Mu Bai replied.
Seeing that Su Ming didn't reply, Mu Bai turned to look at him for a moment, his expression turning somewhat strange. "Are you still going in?"
"Mm." Su Ming nodded, acknowledging it.
He did indeed need to go inside, firstly because of what Xiaoqing had mentioned about Bifang leaving behind. Xiaoqing meant that it was left inside his body, but when he went out for a stroll earlier, he encountered some kind of sensation urging him to go inside.
Su Ming, who had just come out, didn't want to go, but Xiao Qing suddenly lost contact with him.
This also happened when Xiaoqing evolved before, but at that time I could still sense her.
Now things are different. Su Ming couldn't sense any trace of Xiao Qing at all; it was as if she had vanished into thin air.
He had searched outside before, but found nothing; it was as if she had truly vanished.
That's why Su Ming, who was bored, went for a stroll, and then he felt as if something in the Helan Mountains was calling to him.
Xiaoqing is related to Bifang. Bifang died there, so there might be clues inside.
