Little did he know that he was overthinking. Lin Yi's technique could only be used on brainless beasts like the Ancient Giant Lizard. It was useless against a Golden Core expert of his level. Even a Foundation Establishment expert would not be affected at all, let alone a Golden Core expert. It could only be used to deal with ordinary people.
However, Xue Jianfeng did not know this. He was now like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow. He was extremely fearful. Even though he was a Golden Core Perfected expert now, his divine sense had not made any substantial progress. It was almost his weakest link, so he had no choice but to be fearful.
Seeing Lin Yi's gaze sweep over, Xue Jianfeng immediately shivered. Afraid that he would have evil thoughts, he quickly forced a smile and said, "Thank you for your help."
Although he said so, in his heart, he could not wait to quickly think of a way to kill Lin Yi. Biting the hand that feeds him, this guy was a typical ingrate.
"No need, I'm not here for you." Lin Yi pursed his lips.
"Then … let's part ways here …" Xue Jianfeng was extremely cautious when he said this, afraid that Lin Yi would suddenly attack him. Although there was Bing Wuqing, a "friend" present, and he did not believe that a Foundation Establishment Perfected expert like Lin Yi could defeat a Golden Core Perfected expert like him, the scene just now was too shocking. This guy could not be calculated with common sense.
As expected, Lin Yi had no intention of letting him go just like that. He stretched out his hand to stop him. "Wait."
"What do you want?" Xue Jianfeng immediately felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy. At the same time, he desperately winked at Bing Wuqing, hoping that she would help him deal with Lin Yi. Even though they had their own ulterior motives when dealing with the Ancient Giant Lizard, they were both members of the organization. He believed that Bing Wuqing would not turn against him over such a matter of principle, because that would be equivalent to betraying the organization.
Little did he know. Bing Wuqing was not one of his people at all, but one of Lin Yi's people. He was really thinking too much.
"Where's Leng Leng?" Lin Yi stared at him with an unfriendly expression. Although he didn't know what would happen after arriving at the Primordial Monitor Lizard's territory, one thing was certain. Before this, there was no doubt that Xue Jianfeng had been chasing after Leng Leng.
It would be fine if Leng Leng was safe and sound, but if anything were to happen to her, Lin Yi would never let Xue Jianfeng off today.
"She escaped long ago." Xue Jianfeng hurriedly answered.
"Really?" Lin Yi was skeptical. He ordered the water lily clone not far away, "Check it out."
Xue Jianfeng was stunned when he heard that. Only now did he finally notice the unfamiliar face beside Duan Muyu, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised. Where did this person come from? He had more or less an impression of all the disciples who participated in the trial, but there was no such person. Moreover, Lin Yi actually asked him to investigate Leng Leng's matter. How was he supposed to investigate?
At this moment, Bing Wuqing stepped forward to testify. "Coold did escape. I saw her leave with my own eyes."
"Is that so?" Lin Yi heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't have to think to know that it was Bing Wuqing who saved Leng Leng from Xue Jianfeng's hands. At this moment, the water lily clone also said, "That woman escaped safely and has now met up with the group from before."
"That's good." Lin Yi nodded.
"Can I leave now?" Xue Jianfeng didn't dare to stay any longer. Without waiting for Lin Yi's reply, he quickly retreated. At the same time, he said to Bing Wuqing in dissatisfaction, "Aren't you going to remove your stupid cage?!"
Bing Wuqing frowned when she heard that and glanced at Lin Yi. Seeing that Lin Yi didn't object, she then waved her hand to remove the Merciless Ice Threads.
Xue Jianfeng used the Spectral Snowsteps without hesitation and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. For him, it seemed that the current Lin Yi was far more frightening than the Primordial Giant Lizard.
Lin Yi looked thoughtfully at the direction in which this guy had left. Actually, Xue Jianfeng deserved to die a hundred times for daring to attack Leng Leng and the others. It was just that Lin Yi's current strength and realm were too low. It was easier said than done to deal with an expert of Golden Core Perfected.
Of course. It wasn't impossible to really fight. After all, he also had Bing Wuqing, who was of Golden Core Perfected, on his side. The key problem was that Lin Yi's current state was like an arrow at the end of its flight. He couldn't do anything.
However, Lin Yi didn't show any of it on his face. He still maintained his calm demeanor. He looked at Bing Wuqing and asked, "What's up with this guy? It seems like there's something he can't let us know? "
Thinking about it carefully, Xue Jianfeng's behavior just now was actually very unusual. It was true that he was shocked by Lin Yi's shocking means, but he was still an expert of Golden Core Perfected. Moreover, Bing Wuqing was with him in name. There was absolutely no need for him to be afraid of Lin Yi, and there was no need for him to put on such a fleeing posture. There must be something going on.
"That's right. Ever since he entered this Primordial Trial Ground, he has been acting suspiciously. I was also very puzzled, so I have been following him. It's just that until now, I still haven't figured out his intentions." Bing Wuqing nodded. It was also because of this that she could save Leng Leng in time. Otherwise, with the Primordial Trial Ground being so huge, how could there be such a coincidence?
"He didn't notice you?" Lin Yi was a little surprised. Both of them were experts of Golden Core Perfected. Even if Bing Wuqing had a deeper foundation, she shouldn't have been able to follow them all the way without being noticed. No matter what, Xue Jianfeng wasn't an ordinary person. His senses shouldn't be so slow, right?
"I have this." Bing Wuqing raised her hand. An invisible ice thread was wrapped around her fingertip, which was connected to the direction that Xue Jianfeng had left. There was no doubt that the other end of the thread was on Xue Jianfeng.
"No wonder." Lin Yi suddenly understood. With this merciless ice thread as a guide, Bing Wuqing only had to follow far behind. There was no need for her to get close to the other's sensing range. As long as Xue Jianfeng didn't notice this trick, she would never be able to escape his tracking.
"Then I …" Bing Wuqing consulted.
"Do as you wish. Continue to keep an eye on him. I happen to be worried about this guy anyway." Lin Yi waved his hand. Since Xue Jianfeng dared to attack Leng Leng and the others, there would be a second time. With Bing Wuqing keeping an eye on him, it would be good to eliminate this hidden danger. Besides, if Bing Wuqing kept following him, it would be troublesome if she was seen by others.
"Alright." Bing Wuqing responded, but she didn't leave immediately. Instead, she turned her gaze to the other people present. The first to bear the brunt was Fei Yangsheng, who was the closest.
