Chapter 35 - Fan Jianqiang: Am I Exposed?
“I’ll have to see what tricks you’re up to.”
Lin Fan was quite expectant.
While the Second Elder was setting up the formation again and Fan Jianqiang was using the excuse of needing to relieve himself for the second time, a person gracefully landed within the range of Wu Xingyun’s broken formation.
“Were they prepared?”
“These formations are all ordinary, like the work of a small sect elder. They only barely managed to kill two little guys who had just entered the Cave Heaven realm.”
He was not very interested and paced forward, his speed as fast as if he was shrinking the ground.
In just a few steps, he arrived a mile or two away. Looking at the dense forest in front of him that had been completely destroyed and turned into a huge pit, smelling the faint bloody smell in the air, he frowned slightly.
“There are more formations?!”
He did not rush to approach but carefully observed around the huge pit.
He quickly found a clue.
“The previous formations were mediocre, and I could easily break them.”
“But the formations here…”
“Hiss!”
“Seven Kill Formation, Endless Sword Formation, Blood Sea Extinction Formation, Fifth Trapping Formation… These are all famous and fierce formations. Even if they are all simplified and incomplete versions, they are still extremely good!
Moreover, various formations are intricate and intertwined, with with one in another.
The most amazing thing is that they are arranged so hidden and natural.
I am afraid that even if I came in person, I might not be able to find them in advance. And if they are triggered, I might not be able to escape unscathed.”
“Wu Xingyun, the Second Elder of the Embracing Moon Sect… When did she have such high attainments in formations?!”
Gulp!
Liu Xun swallowed.
Even though he was considered a top expert in the Liu family, with his cultivation reaching the fifth level of the Mystic Finger realm, he felt dry and scared at this moment.
The Liu family had many eyes and ears!
And their target from the beginning was Fan Jianqiang, so they had been paying close attention.
Wu Xingyun was not the target of their attention, but Wu Xingyun’s conversation with an ordinary fortune teller was worth paying attention to. After that, someone saw Fan Jianqiang restoring his original appearance.
Therefore, the Liu family naturally received the news and rushed over as soon as possible.
However, they were still one step late.
From afar, they saw the huge shock wave straight into the sky. Liu Xun, worried that Fan Jianqiang would be killed, could not help but speed up and arrived.
As a result, he saw such a scene at this moment…
He could not help but fall into deep thought!
This was the temporary route of the Embracing Moon Sect, which could completely rule out the possibility of others setting up formations to encircle and intercept them!
And the two formations were so close to each other, which could also basically rule out the possibility that they were set up by unrelated people.
In other words, these formations must have been set up by the Embracing Moon Sect.
Even if it was not Wu Xingyun, it was her responder.
However, when did the Embracing Moon Sect have such methods?!
Liu Xun looked into the distance and muttered to himself: “There should be other methods. We must not be careless. Otherwise, if we accidentally enter such a formation again, even I…”
Hmm?
He could not help but stop and look to his right rear.
A group of cultivators came quickly.
Seeing Liu Xun, they were only slightly vigilant and not afraid.
“The source of the violent fluctuations just now is here!”
“It’s not a fight between two people, but more like an ambush set up in advance.”
“One side is already dead.”
“The other side… ran this way.”
“Although I don’t know why the conflict arose, I think one side has something coveted by the other side. Chase them and kill them, and this thing will belong to us.”
“Even if there is nothing, hunting them should also be a good harvest!”
“Chase!”
They came quickly and went quickly.
Liu Xun just watched quietly and did not speak.
It was not until they went far away that he sneered: “Hunters.”
“Unfortunately, their eyesight is too poor.”
“They can’t even see the reason for these formations. They still want to pick up a bargain?”
“It’s no different from courting death.”
After speaking, he took another deep look at the big pit before raising his foot to follow.
As expected, not long after, he heard terrifying roars one after another, accompanied by bursts of screams.
Liu Xun smiled.
“Foolish, it is indeed exactly as I thought.”
He approached slowly, but the scene he saw made him slightly startled.
“Hmm?!”
“No, it’s not a formation?!”
He was shocked.
“It’s a talisman!”
“Although these hunters are not strong enough, there are also Cave Heaven realm seven or eight level cultivators among them, but they were so easily solved by mere talismans. The preciousness of these talismans is probably…”
His mouth twitched slightly, and he could not laugh anymore.
Looking at the broken limbs all over the ground, he was even more shocked.
But then he saw the storage bags of these hunters that were blown to pieces and the supplies all over the ground.
The smile reappeared on his face.
“Interesting.”
“Today’s luck is not bad. I didn’t take action, but I was able to pick up all the wealth of a group of hunters.”
He waved his big sleeve and put all the supplies into his storage bag and began to track again…
“Hmm?”
“More roars?!”
Lin Fan and the other two had just set off when they found more roars and screams coming from behind.
“Who is fighting?!” Wu Xingyun frowned.
Fan Jianqiang began to ‘make trouble’: “Second Elder, didn’t you set up a formation in that area?”
“No.” Wu Xingyun shook her head lightly: “That area…”
She suddenly looked at Fan Jianqiang: “It looks like the place where you relieved yourself.”
“Ah?”
Fan Jianqiang was stunned and then waved his hands repeatedly: “Second Elder, what are you talking about?”
“Could it be that the dirty things I excreted are so terrifying?”
“This, this, what does it have to do with me?”
Wu Xingyun did not speak again but stared at him with a deep gaze.
“That’s it!”
At this moment, her mind was full of thoughts, and she secretly said that she was foolish.
“He is a person who meets the eighth sect rule. How can he be measured by common sense?!”
“He looks harmless and simple and honest, but in fact, I am afraid that he is definitely not as simple as he appears on the surface.”
“Otherwise, how could the Sect Master attach so much importance to him?”
“However, I don’t know what Fan Jianqiang’s strengths are…”
Although she did not know what was extraordinary about Fan Jianqiang, Wu Xingyun was now sure that this guy was definitely not an ordinary person!
Just like she could not understand the sect rules established by the Sect Master!
Even if she could not see through Fan Jianqiang, this person must be extraordinary!
She kept staring at Fan Jianqiang until the latter felt his heart palpitate before slowly withdrawing her gaze.
“This is really nothing to do with this disciple. This disciple is just a small cultivator who has just entered the Condensing Yuan realm. What ability do I have?”
Fan Jianqiang spread his hands: “Maybe some senior passed by before and left some methods?”
Wu Xingyun chuckled: “This kind of possibility is not impossible.”
This performance made Fan Jianqiang feel suspicious.
He always felt that he was exposed!
But it shouldn’t be!
He had always acted cautiously, and how could she start to suspect him in such a short time? This reaction was too fast!
He obviously did not reveal any flaws!
Could it be that this Second Elder is too smart?!
This guy could not help but look at Lin Fan, who had a calm face, and secretly said: “The Sect Master is still good and did not suspect me at all.”
