Chapter 212 Finding clues about Pei Cangli
Chapter 212 Finding clues about Pei Cangli
The people from the Xuanyuan family and the Lin family reached an agreement and continued on their way.
Soon he met Si Yunzhou, who was alone and looking for Pei Cangli.
Si Yunzhou asked them if they had seen Pei Cangli. Before the people from the Xuanyuan family could reply, the people from the Lin family spoke first.
"She is a mortal. If she were really in the secret realm, she would have died long ago."
Before the man could finish his words, he found a sword across his neck. He was so scared that he stammered:
"I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, ask the Xuanyuan family. We almost died just now."
The Xuanyuan family nodded and told them what had happened just now about the Lin family being besieged by monsters.
Considering that Pei Cangli is also an alchemist, and even the Lin family members are like this, it would be better to meet them.
Pei Cangli is a mortal, so I'm afraid he's in great danger.
However, Si Yunzhou did not believe that the monster would target the alchemist for no reason. Perhaps it was just targeting the Lin family.
After all, the Lin family is not a group of upright people. Maybe they have done something shameful in private, which is why they are being chased and blocked by monsters.
When the Xuanyuan family heard this, they thought it made sense!
The Lin family is not a good group of people. This is a consensus in their Netherworld. If it weren't for their monopoly on elixirs, no one would want to deal with them.
Seeing that the Xuanyuan family was about to be persuaded by Si Yunzhou, the Lin family hurriedly explained:
"We have been looking for spiritual herbs since we came in. It was just that the Zhao family and we saw the same spiritual herb, and they got it in the end. We didn't do anything else."
Si Yunzhou seized the loophole in his words and asked, "You alchemists need spiritual herbs. Since you both like them at the same time, it means that the spiritual herb is very precious. Why did you give it to the Zhao family?"
The people from the Xuanyuan family also looked at them with confusion, as if to imply that if they didn't explain clearly, their cooperation would be terminated.
When the Lin family saw that they had no other choice, they told the truth, but they described Pei Cangli as a mean man who forgot his principles when he saw profit, and their Lin family was portrayed as weak and helpless.
After hearing their description and filtering out those useless embellishments, Si Yunzhou subconsciously felt that the person was Pei Cangli.
Although the face, voice, and even the name were not the same, Si Yunzhou just thought it was Pei Cangli.
The people from the Xuanyuan family wanted to invite Si Yunzhou to join them, but was rejected by Si Yunzhou.
His purpose was to find Pei Cangli, not to hunt for treasure. No treasure could compare to the importance of Pei Cangli in his mind.
After finding out where the Lin family had just been, Si Yunzhou went in that direction alone.
Seeing that he had disappeared, the Lin family members finally spoke.
"He is a mortal, yet he dares to run around in this secret place alone. He is really brave."
The people of the Xuanyuan family looked at the speaker with contempt.
"Xuanyuan Yun is not an ordinary mortal. He is more powerful than any of us. Don't judge him with your eyes. You are not worthy."
The Lin family lowered their heads when they heard this, and only retorted in their hearts: What's so great about it? No matter how powerful it is, what's the use? If you need elixirs, don't you have to look for our Lin family?
They are just a bunch of reckless men who only know how to use brute force, unlike them, the alchemists, who mainly rely on using their brains.
When Si Yunzhou found the place the Lin family mentioned, there was nothing there, so he looked for it along the traces around it.
Si Yunzhou went in another direction, but this time he took a mask and put it on his face.
He didn't want to be recognized by the Xuanyuan family again and waste time, so the people who came in this time were basically in groups of five.
What he met just now was just one of the teams from the Xuanyuan family. In order to prevent other teams from looking for him again, Si Yunzhou simply wore a mask.
Xuan Shang, who came in with him, was playing with the spiritual herb in one hand and looking at the person in front of him with a sneer on his face.
"Haven't found it yet? Didn't you invite me to stay and let me help you get the spiritual herbs? Wouldn't you help me find someone?
How come so much time has passed? And your people don't even have a clue? What's the point of keeping you here?"
The person he was staring at was so frightened that he could hardly stand.
If I had known this earlier, I would not have provoked this killer god. They could have gotten the spiritual herbs later, so why should I call him?
Now, he has got the spiritual herbs, but he can’t find the people, and their lives are in danger.
The nine people from the Shangguan family looked at each other, and no one dared to speak.
I was afraid that if I said something wrong, I would be killed. I didn't even know whether Pei Cangli was still alive.
Where can they find such a huge secret place?
Even if she was still alive at that time, as a mortal, she would probably have been eaten by monsters now.
But no one dared to say this to Xuan Shang's face. The man from the Shangguan family who was killed by Xuan Shang's attack before was a nephew of the family head, and he died just like that.
Xuan Shang is still at large outside, and the head of the family has not punished him at all, so let alone people like them.
Maybe when he called him before, he also wanted to establish a good relationship with Xuan Shang and win him over.
But now they discovered that Xuan Shang was a little restrained except in front of that mortal. In front of other people, he was always unrestrained.
Even Qing'er from the Luo family, it is said that the talisman on her body has not disappeared yet, she just found someone to suppress it temporarily.
"Why are you all silent? Do you want to accompany me on the road to the underworld?"
When Xuan Shang's voice was heard, the nine people shuddered. They didn't dare to run or speak.
It felt like every second was torture for them, and they had never felt time pass so slowly.
At this time, a voice came from far away, "I found the clue, I found...the clue."
Seeing Xuan Shang suddenly appear in front of him, the man was startled. How could he appear in front of him from such a far distance?
When the remaining nine people heard the voice, they all breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the ground.
They were almost meeting the King of Hell.
"Where's the clue?"
"In that direction, I found a pool of water where a living thing was dissolved by elixir."
After saying that, the man pointed in a direction. Xuan Shang threw the spiritual herb into his arms, and he disappeared the next second.
After waiting for a while and feeling that Xuan Shang had completely gone far away, the nine people came over, hugged this man and thanked him for saving their lives.
The man being held looked confused. When did he save them? And there were so many people?
Then he took out the spiritual herb that Xuan Shang threw to him and asked the others who to give it to for safekeeping. Those people shook their heads, indicating that it was enough for him to keep it and there was no need to give it to anyone else.
They'd better not touch the God-killing thing. What if they come back later and find that something is missing? How can they explain it then?
In a word, stay away from Xuan Shang, saving your life is the most important thing.
