More than ten miles away from Valley South City, on a barren land adjacent to the dense forest.
At a glance, there was almost no grass on the barren land except for the big and small stones.
Liu Ming put his hands behind his back and looked at the broken temple in front of him with his eyes wide open. His pupils shrank slightly.
From the Green Bamboo Restaurant in the city, he followed the grandfather and grandson all the way out of the city.
However, just after Liu Ming followed the two into this barren land, the old man and the young man suddenly disappeared.
Liu Ming frowned slightly. He released his mental power and explored around.
However, with his current powerful mental power, he didn't seem to find anything at all.
However, at this moment, Liu Ming only felt a blur in front of him. A black shadow shot out from the dense forest beside the dilapidated temple. The black shadow's speed was extremely fast. In an instant, it had already arrived in front of him and hit him with a "peng" sound.
Under this unexpected blow, there was an extremely violent force pouring over. Liu Ming was caught off guard. Even though his physical body was strong, his body trembled and took a few steps back.
However, this collision did not cause any harm to Liu Ming. After making a hand sign, Liu Ming's body suddenly sank and stood still.
Only a pit was left at the place where he was hit just now.
Liu Ming's eyes narrowed slightly, and his sight swept on the black shadow in the center of the pit.
The black shadow turned out to be a giant python. Its entire body was pitch-black, as if pieced together in pieces. Its bowl-sized scales shone with a cold and gloomy light. However, there was no vitality in its eyes. It was obviously a puppet beast.
At this moment, an old man in a yellow robe and a girl in a yellow shirt slowly walked out from behind the broken temple.
It was the pair of grandfather and grandson that he met in the restaurant!
The girl in the yellow shirt looked unfriendly and stared at Liu Ming.
Although the old man in a yellow robe looked calm, his heart sank slightly. He was a little surprised that the young man in a gray robe could actually stop the sneak attack of his puppet beast.
However, the young man looked too young on the surface, so the old man wasn't too worried about it.
The other party's cultivation was limited. Even if his physical body seemed to be slightly stronger, he should be able to deal with him.
Looking at the formation of the old man and the young lady, Liu Ming turned his hand in the air expressionlessly, and the sound of air exploding came from between his fingers.
Liu Ming knew it was useless to explain anything at this time.
Not to mention the fact that the two of them were also outsiders, they would definitely be hostile to him after being tracked by him. Moreover, the missing person they mentioned clearly had a close relationship with them. Using normal methods, they would definitely not tell him the truth.
At this time, he could only use some thunderous methods to be the most effective.
On the other side, the yellow-robed elder did not want to talk nonsense with Liu Ming either. He made a gesture with his right hand and pointed at the python puppet beast.
The python puppet beast suddenly made a whining sound, and its giant tail smashed on the ground. Its body blurred, and it once again turned into a black shadow, rushing at Liu Ming. At the same time, a muffled sound came from the space where the python passed.
"Boom"!
Liu Ming made a gesture with one hand, and a thick black gas suddenly rolled out of his body. After the black gas spun for a while on top of his head, it quickly condensed into a black dragon phantasm. It just hovered in the nearby air, then it suddenly rushed down and finally wrapped around Liu Ming's right arm.
It was the first level of the Tiger Dragon Hell Prison that Liu Ming cultivated!
Without hesitation, Liu Ming moved his arm and punched at the python puppet beast that was rushing at him.
An earth-shattering sound rang out!
Then the black light in front of Liu Ming shone, and a stronger fluctuation came out in the space. The python immediately flew out with a tremble and fell heavily in front of the old man.
When the giant python raised its head again with difficulty, it saw that where Liu Ming's fist landed, the scales on the surface had been smashed inwards.
This scene made the old man's pupils shrink slightly, and his eyelids moved imperceptibly.
His python puppet beast was not only extremely powerful, but its body surface was also made of an extremely hard and rare metal. Its hardness had long surpassed ordinary fine iron.
But it was so easily hurt by this young man in a gray robe.
The only explanation could only be that the strength of the young man in front of him was really unfathomable. He was not his opponent at all.
"Mister, you and I have no grievances, please stop first." The old man in a yellow robe suddenly waved at Liu Ming, motioning him to stop. After all, if Liu Ming punched the python puppet beast a few more times, this puppet beast would be scrapped.
This puppet python had the strength of the Condensation Period early stage. Even he didn't have many of them, so he was naturally reluctant to let it be destroyed so easily.
As Liu Ming heard the words, he sneered. After taking back his fist, the black gas on his body also rolled back into his body.
The old man in a yellow robe also made a gesture. The python puppet beast instantly turned into a black light and fell into the old man's hand. After the light blurred, it turned into a black ball.
"Fellow Daoist, may I ask why you've followed us all the way here?" The old man stared at Liu Ming and asked slowly, but his tone was a little respectful. He quietly winked at the girl in the yellow shirt next to him, asking her to step back a little, so as not to be affected by the confrontation with the person in front of him.
The girl in the yellow shirt immediately stepped back a few steps without saying a word.
"Don't get me wrong, it's just that I inadvertently heard you guys talking about the disappearance of an acquaintance in Valley South Town in the restaurant. It happens that I also have an acquaintance who disappeared here. The time is very close to what you said, so I want to know the details from you two. I wonder if you can tell me something about it." Liu Ming smiled at the old man and said noncommittally.
When the old man in a yellow robe heard this, his face changed slightly. He couldn't help but look back at the girl beside him.
After the girl in the yellow shirt heard it, her heart trembled slightly. She realized that what she said in the restaurant before had really fallen into the ears of someone with ulterior motives. She immediately lowered her head and didn't dare to say anything more.
At this time, the old man coughed lightly and replied,
"Since mister followed us here, you must be determined to get this. I have to say it. Anyway, there is no need to keep this a secret from outsiders. If mister wants to ask, I can tell you one by one. "
"Very well. You don't have to worry about anything. I will leave after I ask. Mister, please tell me in detail about the missing person. "Liu Ming saw that the old man in a yellow robe was so sensible, and he asked with a relaxed expression.
After the old man coughed slightly, he could only tell in detail,
"My granddaughter and I are actually practitioners from a small Sect in the south of Bieyuan Island. The Sect is also a little famous in the south. Our sect makes a living by refining and selling puppet beasts. It's just that nine months ago, my son and a few others were sent to Valley South Town by the Sect, intending to purchase some attribute crystals from the Crystal Valley to bring back for puppet beasts. This batch of resources is urgently needed by our sect. My son is also a cautious person. He will not stay in Valley South Town for long after it is done. Moreover, my son is not a novice in buying and selling resources. The trip will never exceed three months. But I didn't expect that he hasn't returned after half a year, and there was no news before that. I had to come to this Valley South Town to investigate in person. "
"Oh, have you found out anything? Listening to your tone in the restaurant before, you are planning to leave Valley South Town. "Liu Ming asked faintly.
"I found the inn where my son lived. I only know that after he entered the inn, he never came out. With my son's cultivation at the Condensation Period early stage, he actually disappeared without a trace. Therefore, I feel that this matter is strange. I suspect that it is related to some big forces, and may even involve the powerhouse of the Crystallization Period. And such a powerhouse, how can the Sect that I belong to provoke. At present, I can only return to the Sect with my granddaughter first and then make a long-term plan. "The old man replied with some helplessness.
"I see. But from the meaning of your words, you have been in this Valley South Town for a long time. Have you found any other clues? "After listening, Liu Ming thought for a while and then asked.
"In fact, during my time in the city, I learned from some old acquaintances that some of them are also missing in this Valley South Town, and most of them are people who came here to buy. The missing people are all the cultivators of the Condensation Period. Because of this, I decided to leave this city immediately. "After the old man pondered for a moment, he then replied. His expression was a little sad at the same time.
There are so many cultivators of the Condensation Period disappearing, and they are all when they are shopping in this Valley South Town!
After listening, Liu Ming's eyes flashed slightly, and he faintly guessed in his heart.
But he didn't show any strange expression on his face. He just nodded at the old man and said,
"If that's the case, then I thank you, Fellow Daoist."
In the next moment, with a flash of a gray shadow, Liu Ming actually crossed a distance of several tens of feet. With a blur, he appeared behind the yellow-robed girl. With a "pa" sound, he lightly patted her shoulder. Then, with a sway of his body, he turned into several afterimages and returned to his original position.
The whole process happened in a split second. Even though the old man roared and once again urged the python puppet to block on the way, it only pounced on the afterimage of Liu Ming. It didn't touch Liu Ming's body at all.
"What did you do to Ling Er?" The old man raised his hand and threw out a white ball. After it turned into a white giant eagle puppet, he said viciously to Liu Ming.
The yellow-robed girl's complexion also became abnormally pale, but when she carefully examined the condition of her body, she didn't find any abnormalities at all.
"Don't panic! I just left a mark on this little girl. If I find that what you said is false, I can find you again to confirm it. Don't worry, this mark will dissipate by itself after three days. Or, you can think of anything to add now. "Liu Ming said calmly with his hands behind his back.
"I have told you everything I know." The old man clenched his fists and stared at Liu Ming angrily.
"If that's the case, it's naturally the best. But if you think of anything else, you can come to the Bibo Inn in Valley South Town to find me. "
After Liu Ming finished, he made a gesture with one hand. A black cloud rose under his feet, and he went straight in the direction of Valley South Town.
After Liu Ming left, the old man in yellow robe clenched his fists slowly loosened.
"Grandfather, what should we do now?" The girl in yellow shirt looked up at the direction where Liu Ming left. She looked a little panicked.
"I didn't expect that I haven't found the news of your father and others yet. But I have provoked such a powerful guy. You and I will go to the nearby Black Wind stronghold for three days and see the situation. On the way, I will see if I can remove the mark left by this person first. "After the old man's face was uncertain for a while, he stomped his feet and said to the girl in yellow shirt.
Then the old man opened the clothes on the shoulders of the girl in yellow shirt, and he found a black rune mark was imprinted on the girl's shoulder. He couldn't help but snort.
"Grandfather, is the strength of this person really so terrible that even you dare not to confront him head-on?" The beautiful girl in yellow shirt saw this, then she bit her teeth and asked with some hatred.
"This person should be a physique cultivator, and he is definitely a strong one. He didn't seem to use his full strength in the blow just now. It seems that something big is going to happen on this Bieyuan Island. " The old man's face became a little dignified. After that, he took the girl in yellow shirt and went away with the cloud under his feet.
