Chapter 636 Qin Clan Ruin II

Chapter 636  Qin Clan Ruin II

"What happened, Grandma? Why is your expression so serious?" Xuanyuan Ning questioned Xuanyuan Ling, whose expression suddenly changed.

Without saying anything, Xuanyuan Ling stood up and left their cultivation room, confusing Xuanyuan Ning and Xuanyuan Xing. They quickly followed behind her into the altar room, but they froze in place when they saw that the light on one of the wooden plaques had dimmed, so they hurriedly checked the owner's identity.

"Mother! Grandma! This wooden plaque belongs to my daughter! Something must have happened to Lingyan." Xuanyuan Ning shouted frantically.

"Calm down." Xuanyuan Xing urged her daughter to calm down. "Tell us, Ning'er, where did Lingyan go?"

"Mother, Lingyan went with Liuli and the disciples of the Mystic Moon Sect to train in Illusory Forest." With frowns, both women immediately turned to Xuanyuan Ning. "They should already know which areas are dangerous, so they can't possibly dare to go to those two areas. Perhaps there's something unusual there that no one else has ever discovered, so we have to go there now to save them before it's too late."

Xuanyuan Xing nodded in agreement while releasing a soft sigh. "Unfortunately, all the formations in the forest are blocking our communications, so we can't contact Lingyan and Liuli."

"Let's go; we have to enter the Illusory Forest as quickly as possible, or Lingyan will die if we are late, and the future of this clan will be bleak." Xuanyuan Ling hurriedly guided her daughter and granddaughter to depart from the brand clan. They swiftly flew towards the forest, arriving at the entrance that connected to the outskirts of Northern Mountain City.

When Xue Lan, who was meditating, abruptly opened her eyes with a frown, several green jades flew into her hand as she waved her hand, adding to the seriousness of her expression, especially since one of them had multiple cracks.

Without wasting any time, Xue Lan exited from her ice cave, encountered her younger sister, and swiftly dragged Xue Mei away with her as she handed over the broken jade. "This life jade belongs to Hua Lingxi, and she is in a precarious state right now, so we have to save her. Otherwise, if we are late, she will die, and Hua Yuting will blame us for her death."

"En." Xue Mei nodded as she accelerated her flying speed, following behind Xue Lan. "What do you think is going on there, Big Sis? We've told them the safest route, and we've also repeatedly warned them about the dangers in those two areas, so they shouldn't dare act rashly by entering those two places."

"We can only know the truth once we get there." Xue Lan suddenly recalled the presence of Chen Li and his companions. "There are so many strong people on my father's side, and they should be aware that Lingxi and the others are also training there. If something or someone has bad intentions for them, they will definitely be aware of it, and I'm sure they won't let anything bad happen to them. However, those ruins are too mysterious, and I believe there might be something there that could fool their supervision, so they haven't yet noticed it."

"That's true." Xue Mei nodded in agreement with her big sister. "In the past, numerous cultivators have vanished and perished in those ruins. If your guess is correct, that something might be stronger than the people on Long Wang's side, and it may also have unusual abilities."

"Hey, Old Gang, wake up!" Zi Gang immediately opened his eyes after listening to Di Xiong's scream. "Those disciples seemed to have entered those ruins, so we have to follow them there, or they will die."

After hearing that, Zi Gang's expression turned serious, and he stood up from his seat. However, just as they were about to approach the ruins, Qin Qingshuang's two shadows entered their bodies and possessed them. They exchanged glances for a moment before going to another area, following her orders to capture the people around Chen Li.

However, Xiao Hei suddenly intercepted them, especially after she sensed the two men's strange movements, and she immediately restricted their movements before touching their chests. After a while, Xiao Hei frowned upon discovering nothing inside them. She immediately extended her senses to Chen Li and the others' location, but found nothing unusual there.

Xiao Hei then checked other areas for the female disciples of the Mystic Moon Sect, which makes him frown because they have disappeared. "What happened here? How did they disappear? Moreover, I didn't feel their movements at all, and they have suddenly disappeared now."

Xiao Hei summoned Xiao Huoli, Xiao Diqiu, and Xiao Jianyi, who immediately appeared beside them. "Did any of you feel the movements of those female disciples?"

"No." Xiao Huoli was the first to answer while shaking his head.

Xiao Diqiu asked Xiao Hei instead. "What happened to these two old men? Why did their eyes go blank? Is there something controlling them?"

"I don't know for sure about that." Xiao Hei then knocked the two old men unconscious. "I suddenly felt something strange coming from them, and they wanted to go to our master's place, so I immediately intercepted them. However, they had already become like this, so I checked their bodies and souls, and I couldn't find anything strange in them."

Xiao Jianyi pointed towards the ancient ruins. "Big Sis Diqiu, I have a feeling that something is amiss coming from those ruins, so you can try to look for their traces in that area."

"All right." Xiao Diqiu immediately squatted down, touched the ground, and used her earth qi. "Sister Hei, Jianyi is right; those female disciples entered those ruins, and their traces were very neat, so they did it voluntarily."

"That's weird." Xiao Hei silently raised her eyebrows. "They should already know the dangers of those ruins, but why are they so careless to enter there?"

"So what should we do now? Should we inform Chen Li of this matter?" Xiao Huoli inquired as she turned to face the group.

The three other spirit women agreed with Xiao Huoli, and they went straight to Chen Li's camping area, as Xiao Hei carried the two unconscious old men there.

Upon their arrival, the four spirit women immediately checked Lin Qingzhu and the others' condition, but they couldn't find anything from them, and all of them were fast asleep, which confused them.

They intended to inform Chen Li, but he was preoccupied with aiding Dongfang Wenxin in his breakthrough, so they avoided disturbing him. Feng Xian'er suddenly walked out of her tent with her twins with her, and she then spoke to them. "There was something unusual in this forest, and I felt it trying to enter our bodies before. However, I couldn't find anything in this area, even after I used my nirvana eyes."

"I feel the same way as you." Xiao Hei then pointed at Di Xiong and Zi Gang. "That something seemed to have done something to them, and they became strange because of it, but I can't confirm what it was yet."

Feng Xian'er raised an eyebrow as she glanced at the two old men. "Have you checked their souls, Sister Hei?"

"Yes." Xiao Hei nodded to Feng Xian'er. "I found nothing in their souls, so I feel confused about it."

"Hmm? Have you also checked the other souls?" Xiao Hei once again nodded to Feng Xian'er. "Have any of you experienced such a situation in the past?"

"No." The four spirit women shook their heads at Feng Xian'er, and Xiao Huoli said to her. "Perhaps Big Sis Shijian has encountered such a situation in the past, but she is currently focused on breaking the formation in the cemetery area, so we can't disturb her for now."

Feng Xian'er agreed with that and turned towards Dongfang Wenxin's tent. "Hubby will finish soon, and his eye technique might enable him to locate it."

An hour later, they sensed that Dongfang Wenxin had already broken through, and Chen Li immediately left her to rest, especially after Feng Xian'er told him about the strange situation.

Chen Li then squatted between Di Xiong and Zi Gang before using his divine god eyes to examine their bodies, but his efforts were also fruitless. "Xiao Hei, as far as I remember, there were only three people who could trick you. The first was Shijian, the second was the Spirit Emperor, and the third was Xiao Yinying, the spirit of shadow."

"Xiao Yinying? Did you suspect her?" Xiao Hei inquired with a frown.

"No." Chen Li denied this by shaking his head, and he then pointed towards the location of those ruins. "If my guess is correct, there might be something related to Xiao Yinying in there, and we only know about it if we go in."

"That's true." Xiao Hei nodded in agreement with that, but she suddenly sensed the aura of people from the Xuanyuan and Xue Clans. "They seemed to realize that something bad had happened to those female disciples, so they came here in a hurry."

The first to arrive were the Xue Sisters, and Xue Lan immediately told Chen Li about Hua Lingxi's situation. "Father, we have to take risks to go in there, or they will definitely die."

"I know." Chen Li then looked at the Xuanyuan trio, who had just arrived. "Did something happen to Lingyan?"
