Chapter 139 Making a Small Fortune
"Are you sure it's here?" Jiang Hongyue asked Ji Qinglin beside her with a look of doubt.
"It's this place. The tracking technique reacts most strongly here. Junior Sister is probably trapped in the void here, but we can't find her." Ji Qinglin said solemnly.
The place where they were at the moment was a wasteland without any spiritual energy in the territory of Zixiao Sect.
This place is filled with miasma all year round. There is not even a mortal here, so it is naturally impossible for a cultivator to appear here.
The Tingfeng Order that Ji Qinglin gave to Cheng Shuyan was the highest-level certificate in Tingfeng Tower. It contained a tracking method so that when the owner of the Tingfeng Order was in trouble, the people in Tingfeng Tower could follow the order to track him down.
Unexpectedly, it was actually used. In the past two years, the people in Tingfeng Tower have been searching for it, and finally confirmed recently that the trace of Tingfeng Order was nearby.
But it’s no wonder that Jiang Hongyue would be suspicious. There doesn’t seem to be any trace of any formation here.
Both of them are Nascent Soul cultivators, and even they cannot detect the abnormality here. I am afraid that the only way is to find someone with higher cultivation to solve the problem.
The two looked at each other, their faces looking a little ugly.
This is undoubtedly an unsolvable dilemma for the two of them.
They originally hid in the Hidden World Sect to avoid the sight of certain people. Now they want to save Cheng Shuyan, but it seems that they can only expose their identities.
Jiang Hongyue pursed her lips and said with determination: "I'll go and beg her. At worst, I can just go back to the Jiang family and continue to see that family's disgusting faces!"
"Are you crazy?" Ji Qinglin shouted softly, "If anyone has to go, it's me. That old man feels guilty about me. He'll definitely be happy to see me go back. He wouldn't refuse such a small thing as helping me find someone."
"Ji Qinglin, you have to think it through! How are you going to face him when you go back? At least I don't have that much deep hatred..."
Before Jiang Hongyue could finish, Ji Qinglin suddenly stopped her: "Shh! Someone is coming!"
The two of them quickly hid their figures, and after a while, they saw the Cheng family's flying boat landed where the two were originally.
Cheng Huaixu and his wife, Cheng Lingshu, Wuwei Zhenren, Gu Qingzhou, and four people from Xuanfeng Sect got off the flying boat one by one.
Cheng Huaixu was holding the bloodline compass in his hand. After arriving here, the red light emitted from the compass was stronger than ever before. Everyone knew that they had found the right place!
After Cheng Shuyan returned to the Cheng family, Cheng Huaixu took blood from her fingertips and dripped it back into the blood compass. With the addition of the blood connection, it was naturally easier to track her location than before.
He did this just in case, but he didn't expect it to come in handy so soon.
Because of the excessive use of bloodline techniques, Cheng Huaixu's face was a little pale. Jian Qing was worried about Cheng Shuyan's whereabouts and did not notice anything unusual.
Instead, the Yuanying elder from Xuanfeng Sect looked fiercely at the place where Jiang Hongyue and the others were hiding and shouted:
"Who's there?"
Seeing that their whereabouts were exposed, the two men simply walked away.
"Hongyue? Qinglin? Why are you here?" When Master Wuwei saw that it was the two of them, he couldn't help but be surprised.
They came here because of the Cheng family's secret bloodline technique. In a hurry, Master Wuwei forgot to inform these two people. How did Jiang Hongyue and the others know about it?
"Master, fellow seniors, the two of us just happened to pass by here and didn't expect to meet you."
Jiang Hongyue explained dryly.
She was in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and Ji Qinglin was in the late stage of the Nascent Soul. They both had practiced extraordinary techniques to conceal their cultivation, so they didn't have to worry about their cultivation being exposed.
Everyone's mind was on the whereabouts of Cheng Shuyan and Xie Jingxiu, and no one questioned the credibility of her words.
"Brother Wuwei, Fellow Daoist Zhao, the place pointed by the blood compass is this place, but I haven't found anything unusual here. I wonder if you two have found anything?" Cheng Huaixu turned around and asked the two of them.
The Daoist Fellow Zhao he mentioned was the Yuanying stage elder of Xuanfeng Sect.
Hearing this, both of them shook their heads helplessly.
Seeing this, Jian Qing said anxiously, "What should we do? Mingshu is right here, Huaixu, we have to find a way to save her!"
Cheng Lingshu quickly comforted her, "Mother, don't worry. Father will definitely find a way to save my sister."
Cheng Huaixu sighed softly and said, "The place where Mingshu is trapped must be an extremely secret space. With our cultivation level, it would be difficult to find it. Now I'm afraid I can only ask the ancestor to come forward."
……
"Fellow Daoist Cheng, it's right here!" Lin Yuan said, pointing to an ordinary void in the space.
This place was not far from where Xie Jingxiu was temporarily staying. He noticed the two of them as soon as they arrived nearby and was watching them from afar.
Cheng Shuyan glanced sideways and called out to Xie Jingxiu in the distance, "Fellow Daoist Xie, since you're here, why hide in the dark and spy? Why don't you come over openly and take a look?"
Xie Jingxiu had no expression on his face when he heard this. He took out a fluorescent stone, illuminated the surrounding environment, and then walked towards Cheng Shuyan and the others.
"It's been a while since we last met. Have you two found a way to leave?" Xie Jingxiu raised his eyes to look at Cheng Shuyan and said in a calm tone.
"Yes, Brother Xie, would you be willing to lend us a hand?" Cheng Shuyan said.
She didn't mind letting Xie Jingxiu leave with her. For one thing, if she went out, Xie Jingxiu would be trapped inside, and Xuanfeng Sect would definitely not let her go.
Secondly, she wanted to kill Xie Jingxiu, and kill him with her own hands in broad daylight, rather than letting him die alone here.
Besides, with Xie Jingxiu's ability, maybe one day he would be able to find a way out by himself. Why should she do such a thankless task to stop him from going out?
"I'm happy to do so." Xie Jingxiu chuckled, not knowing what he was thinking.
"The method was provided by Fellow Daoist Lin. Since Fellow Daoist Xie wants to follow Fellow Daoist Lin's path, shouldn't he also pay a bribe?"
Even though Xie Jingxiu would definitely go out with her, it didn't mean she would let him go so easily.
She looked at the storage ring on Xie Jingxiu's hand and smiled evilly.
Lin Yuan understood what she meant and agreed, "That's right, Fellow Daoist Xie. I've kept your murderous intent in mind!"
Xie Jingxiu pondered for a moment, then decisively took off the storage ring on his hand, wiped off his mark, and handed it to Lin Yuan, saying:
"I apologize for any offense I caused you that day. Fellow Daoist Lin, please forgive me. The things here are my apology."
These wealthy disciples of the sect would not have only one storage magic tool. In addition to the storage ring he handed to Lin Yuan, Xie Jingxiu placed all his important things in the storage belt around his waist.
Lin Yuan took the storage ring, immersed his spiritual sense into it to investigate, and showed a surprised expression.
"As expected of a direct disciple of a major sect, Brother Xie's gesture is truly extraordinary."
He put away the storage ring and sent a voice message to Cheng Shuyan, "Fellow Daoist Cheng, we have made a small fortune. If you trust me, I will find another opportunity to give it to you after we get out."
