Chapter 289
"Yeah." Hearing his question, Jiang Qiongxing nodded naturally, "Don't worry, I didn't take anyone with me, lest you really become a prisoner and lose face in front of all the younger brothers and sisters."

"Little Qiongxing is so kind to me." Ji Cheyu smiled even wider.

Jiang Qiongxing glared at him angrily: "If I had known you were so leisurely, I wouldn't have come——Is there something wrong with that beam of light just now?"

"Yes," when it came to business, Ji Cheyu suppressed his smile, "That is the beam of light they use to detect the living, and you should have noticed that the street looks lively, but in fact most of them are puppets."

"The vast majority?" Jiang Qiongxing touched his arm, feeling weird, "Why do they have so many puppets?"

Are you afraid of being lonely living underground?

"The fineness of these puppets is different, depending on the degree of wear and tear, they are not made in the same batch... I suspect that they intend to develop puppets that can be faked and used to replace living people and erode the world of cultivating immortals." Ji Cheyu whispered.

Thinking of Kuang Zheng's evil technique, Jiang Qiongxing felt that his guess was not impossible.

"You were arrested here on purpose, and you only found this?" She asked provocatively.

"Of course more than that, come with me, I'll take you to see the living people here." Ji Cheyu said as he walked deep into the narrow and dark alley.

He took Jiang Qiongxing to the entrance of a mansion deep in the underground city, and stood in the alley opposite.

"Aren't you going in?" Jiang Qiongxing asked.

"It's best not to." Ji Cheyu said.

Jiang Qiongxing doesn't quite understand—they are both in the Nascent Soul stage, what is in this house that can make high-level cultivators so afraid?
Before she could figure out why, the gate of the opposite house opened.

Several figures filed out.

Relying on Jiang Qiongxing, who was wearing an invisible talisman on his body, he probed out, and found that the lowest cultivation level among the group of people was Yuanying!

When did the Nascent Soul Stage become such a rotten street thing?

An old man in the middle of the crowd seemed to sense the sight from here, and glanced over sharply.

Jiang Qiongxing quickly retracted his head.

The group of people exchanged greetings at the door for a while and separated.

When they were all gone, Jiang Qiongxing dared to say: "Who are those people?"

She seems to have seen the protector of Wuji Prison and an elder of Jade Dragon Palace, but because she is not familiar with these people, she is not sure if it is.

After all, these two sects, one good and one evil, how could they appear in Kuangzheng's territory at the same time, and they seemed to be talking happily.

"They are all elders from major families and sects," Ji Cheyu said, "The one who almost discovered you just now is the Huashen elder of Xun Haozong."

Elder Huashen!
In Jiang Qiongxing's cognition, the masters in the transformation stage are either practicing in seclusion, or they are preparing for retreat. After all, the cultivators in the transformation stage may ascend at any time, and these mundane things in the mortal world are not in their eyes at all, and they have no time to watch.

The masters of Tanyan Academy who were in the stage of becoming gods would never appear in front of everyone.

"Why do they gather here?" Jiang Qiongxing asked.

Ji Cheyu continued to walk through the streets and alleys with her, and said, "Benefits come first, camps and positions are not so important. They gathered here for nothing more than a reason."

Jiang Qiongxing blurted out: "Aiming at Danyan Academy?"

Ji Cheyu glanced at her appreciatively.

Jiang Qiongxing was silent for a moment, and sighed: "No wonder...I said why Kuangzheng couldn't be completely killed no matter what, it turns out that there are so many strong supports behind him."

On the surface, these aristocratic families get along well with Danyan Academy, but they don't know that they have always been thinking about the treasure in the Zangshu Pavilion.

"By the way, did you record the scene just now?" Jiang Qiongxing remembered something, "Let's go back and tell the dean about it!"

"It's too dangerous. The fluctuations in the spiritual power of the Photo Stone are easy to detect," Ji Cheyu said, "And the dean and the others have always known about it."

Jiang Qiongxing was shocked: "...Then they still make good friends with this group of hypocrites?"

Ji Cheyu smiled: "Everything must be based on evidence, aren't we here?"

"I thought the purpose of my trip was to rescue you." Jiang Qiongxing sarcastically.

While talking, the two came to a dilapidated courtyard.

Ji Cheyu opened a window, turned inside, and held down Jiang Qiongxing who was about to jump in with him: "Then work hard."

After speaking, I don't know what he did, a restraint enveloped the room, pushing Jiang Qiongxing out.

She took a few steps back inexplicably, out of the restricted area, and was about to ask him what he meant, when she suddenly felt someone walking this way outside.

Jiang Qiongxing immediately found a place to hide.

The person who came was Jin Danqi, but she didn't find any trace of her. I saw this person wandering in casually, looking into the broken window with his head, and said cheerfully, "What kind of Nascent Soul's great power from Tanyan Academy fell into our Kuangzheng's hands, why is he obediently serving as a prisoner, and my uncle is afraid that he will run away? I don't think this person has woken up at all!"

He took out a strange-looking magic weapon, confirmed that the person in the restriction was still there, and walked out leisurely.

Jiang Qiongxing, who watched the whole process from the side: "..."

Silly boy, if you take him as a prisoner, people actually know all about your city, it's as easy as visiting your own back garden.

Before she finished sighing, Ji Cheyu put away the restraint outside the house, but no one came out.

Jiang Qiongxing thought for a while, and turned in through the window.

"So comfortable, do you still want to stay here for a few more days?"

Ji Cheyu stood in the dirty room, without the slightest look of being imprisoned: "That depends on when the person who rescued me will arrive."

Jiang Qiongxing gave him an angry look: "If I had known that you were living so easily here, I would definitely not have come."

Ji Cheyu just laughed.

Jiang Qiongxing thought about what he saw today, but still felt wrong: "Since the Academy already knows what you have found out, why do you stay here and never leave?"

Judging by his appearance, it doesn't look like he can't leave.

Ji Cheyu said: "Isn't this waiting for you? If I don't get caught, how long are you going to be so angry that you will not see me?"

"When did I stop seeing you?" Jiang Qiongxing was astonished as if he was real.

"Then who was it who didn't answer the communication talisman before, and kept hiding from seeing people?" Ji Cheyu asked back.

Seeing that he couldn't get away with it, Jiang Qiongxing had no choice but to say: "Aren't you mad at me?"

"I'm sorry." Ji Cheyu said.

"Huh?" Unprepared, Jiang Qiongxing got stuck when he met the apologetic.

"I shouldn't doubt you, don't be angry." Ji Cheyu said, "I should have told you earlier, but you have been avoiding me, so I can only see you in this way."

"What you said... seems to be my fault..." Jiang Qiongxing muttered, "Okay, I forgive you! Can we go back?"

"Before you go back, you can leave some gifts for them," Ji Cheyu said.

After a few hours.

Jiang Qiongxing and Ji Cheyu returned to the ground, left the city and flew towards the academy.

Not long after they flew out, there was a loud bang behind them, like thunder falling to the ground, shaking the branches and leaves under their feet.

"Who is it—" a hoarse old man's voice sounded.

The two disappeared at the end of the horizon before the consciousness of the immortal cultivator in the transformation stage swept over.

The collapse of the Zhengzheng dungeon brought about a peaceful day.

Even if the various sects and aristocratic families are willing to take care of them when Huo Ye is not around, it is not good to blatantly seek revenge for them.

After all, if you think about it casually, you can guess that this matter was probably done by Danyan Academy.
