Chapter 131 For some unknown reason
The people from Yunlan Sect had gone to Xuanwu City beforehand.
However, they did not manage to pick the snow lotus seeds from the pool of darkness.
Because there are no snow lotuses in the pond at all!
How could they know that the Master of Taiji Palace was "obsessed" with alchemy and had destroyed batch after batch of top-grade spiritual herbs, including thousand-year-old snow lotuses?
Yun Songhe and Yun Songxuan's trip was in vain.
Although they gained nothing.
But they suffered huge losses.
Of the group that went, there were twenty or thirty cultivators and five or six elders, but less than a third of them returned alive.
This is even more terrifying than them going on a training trip to an extremely dangerous place.
The Yunlan Sect members escaped death in Xuanwu City, and upon their return, they vowed never to cause trouble in Li Tingyun's territory again! They decided to try their luck in the outer regions.
And so, Yun Songhe and Yun Songxuan led another group of people to infiltrate the Ghost Realm of Fengdu.
As soon as they entered the territory, they felt they were being watched.
But they couldn't figure out which force was at odds with them.
We can only guess.
Everyone guessed and kept silent.
Who else could it be but Xue Rendong, the city lord of Xuanwu City?!
Anyone targeted by piranhas would hesitate, and the Yunlan Sect members were no exception. They persevered until they discovered that the border market had undergone tremendous changes...
The bustling market town went from being teeming with people to utterly silent in the blink of an eye.
You can't truly understand how bizarre the scene was unless you experienced it firsthand.
It was at this time that Yun Songhe and Yun Songxuan accidentally got separated.
Each of them, accompanied by several younger members, wandered around the maze-like market, trying many ways to communicate, but none of them worked.
Yun Songxuan has been out of contact with his clan leader cousin for two whole days.
No news.
Yun Songxuan was terrified that they would run into Xue Rendong and be devoured by that piranha until nothing was left.
The most agonizing thing is not being able to find a living person or a dead body.
After listening to him finish his long and drawn-out explanation, Mei Shiyu's heart sank, and she pressed him for an answer: "Brother Yun, do you mean that the market has been like this for the past two days?"
These days, he has been staying in the mural space constructed by Si Wuxie, completely unaware of what is happening in the outside world.
The mural wasn't built inside the market. After Mei Shiyu came out of the mural, he somehow got carried away and went back into the market, where he got lost.
He said he "did something wrong with himself," but he was actually just avoiding his own feelings.
He thought to himself that Li Tingyun was very likely to appear at the border market.
So he instinctively walked in that direction.
Only when he was already standing on the main street of the border town did he suddenly realize why he had come here in the first place!
He turned and left.
But the pace slowed down, and the pace slowed down.
He didn't know what he was thinking at the time, but he knew that his heart had never been so conflicted.
Torn by his dilemma, he realized he couldn't escape the situation.
Mei Shiyu sighed resignedly, her "dislike" for Li Tingyun intensifying.
The image of that scoundrel repeatedly harassing him with a smile lingered in his mind!
Good heavens, his impression of Li Tingyun has changed from a ruthless tyrant who kills without hesitation to a laughing, stinky rogue and an annoying jerk—what on earth happened?!
"Thirteen? Thirteen... Little, ten, three!"
Yun Songxuan called him several times before Mei Shiyu came to his senses, lowered his eyes and said, "Brother Yun, I heard you."
Yun Songxuan was deeply suspicious of him and asked in return, "You heard me? Then repeat what I said again?"
"..."
Mei Shiyu said, "You said that the changes at the border market started two days ago, and that's when you realized you couldn't get out. Actually, before you even entered the border market, that is, when you first arrived at the territory..."
He paused briefly before saying, "You haven't finished what you were going to say."
Yun Songxuan looked at him strangely. He hadn't expected that he had actually heard every single word. So what was with that wandering, dreamy expression he had just had? He was multitasking and keeping his true abilities hidden.
"Okay, shall I continue?"
Yun Songxuan continued, "Actually, when I first arrived in this land, I found that the entire Fengdu Ghost Realm was under martial law, and the Gates of Hell were tightly closed, with no one allowed to enter or leave."
Mei Shiyu looked up at him, "Except for the three days around the Ghost Festival, the Gates of Hell are tightly closed every year. If you want to enter or leave the underworld at other times, there are only two ways..."
