The front of the Bibo Inn looked a little deserted. Except for two or three people passing by occasionally, not even a vendor was seen.
At this time, a young man in a gray robe with ordinary facial features was walking here in a hurry. After a slight pause at the door, he stepped into the inn.
It was Liu Ming who had rushed back from the ruined temple outside the city without stopping.
As soon as he stepped into the inn, he passed through several courtyards in a row and came straight to a quieter courtyard. He stopped in front of a room.
The door of Ye Tianmei's rented residence was closed at this time. It seemed that Master's Junior Ye had not returned yet.
Seeing this, Liu Ming frowned slightly, but he didn't care. He thought that this female Sword Cultivator of the Crystallization Period wouldn't really stay in the room all the time, so he turned back to his room and waited quietly.
Liu Ming, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, calmed his mind. He quickly recalled what the old man in a yellow robe had said in his mind, and he began to calm down.
From the current news, those who disappeared inexplicably here were all young cultivators of the Condensation State, and most of them came here to purchase resources. They must have brought a lot of spirit stones with them. At this time, someone chose to make a move on them. It was either for spirit stones or for people.
Not to mention spirit stones, anyone who knew that someone carried so many spirit stones wouldn't be indifferent. However, since those people were sent to purchase, they must understand the principle of not showing their wealth in an unfamiliar place, unless … it was done by the party who traded with them. But would the Crystal Valley Sect do such a thing for some spirit stones?
As early as when Liu Ming was in the Savage Ghost Sect, he learned from the Scriptures Pavilion that some evil cultivators could use some extremely strange techniques to extract the soul or blood essence of living people and use it to cultivate some powerful evil demonic techniques. They could even directly use the body to refine puppets and magical weapons with extremely terrifying attack power.
After all, some cultivators often did all kinds of cruel methods in order to pursue powerful strength.
However, whether it was really one of the two or the third possibility was still a different matter.
But in this strange situation, he really had to be more careful.
As Liu Ming thought about this, he let out a long sigh and cleared his mind. He closed his eyes and began to meditate.
…
Half a day later …
"Come out quickly, I'll bring you to see someone." Ye Tianmei's cold voice suddenly rang in Liu Ming's ears.
Hearing this, Liu Ming was naturally shocked. He immediately jumped up, pushed the door open, and walked out.
At this time, Ye Tianmei, who was dressed in white, was standing at the entrance of the inn.
Before Liu Ming could greet the Crystallization Period Sword Cultivator, Ye Tianmei immediately turned around and left.
Liu Ming could only laugh bitterly when he saw this, and then he followed them out of Jadewave Inn.
"I wonder who this Martial Uncle Ye wants to bring me to see?" On the way, Liu Ming thought to himself.
But he felt that the news he got from the old man in the yellow robe was quite useful, so he began to speak to Ye Tianmei through voice transmission,
"Master's Junior Ye, I found some clues when I was inquiring about the news in Valley South City in the past two days. Maybe it has something to do with the disappearance of the two Alliance deputies for no reason … Moreover, the Crystal Valley forces in Valley South City don't seem to care much about this matter …"
At the moment, Liu Ming told Ye Tianmei all the news he had inquired about in the past two days.
After listening to Liu Ming's words, Ye Tianmei looked a little moved, but she did not speak.
Seeing this, Liu Ming continued to follow without saying a word.
After a meal, the two came to a tall stone hall in Valley South City.
The stone hall was made of an unknown dark boulder. Under the sunlight, it slightly exuded a faint halo. It must be that there were a lot of enchantments in it. It didn't seem to be simple.
There were several guards standing outside the stone hall. Their costumes were the same as the guards at the city gate, but their figures were taller and burly. The lavender full-body armor on their bodies was quite dazzling under the afterglow of the setting sun.
Just from the breath they exuded, it could be found that these guards were all at the later stage of the Spirit Apostle, and some were even at the early stage of the Condensation State.
Liu Ming was secretly surprised, but his face remained calm.
Ye Tianmei walked to the front of these guards and transmitted a few words to the leader. The guard immediately turned around with a respectful expression and reported to the person in charge of the hall.
Ye Tianmei waited in place without changing her expression.
Not long after, footsteps came from the door, and the guard hurriedly ran out again. After he waved his hand, the other guards immediately retreated to the sides and made a respectful gesture.
Ye Tianmei walked into the hall without saying a word. Liu Ming naturally followed Ye Tianmei into the hall.
After walking through a long corridor, the two came to the main hall of the stone hall.
The hall was rectangular, about a hundred feet in size. There were many monster statues on both sides. There was only one table and eight chairs in the center of the hall, making the hall look extremely empty and deep.
In this hall, a tall figure wearing a lavender robe was standing with his back facing the direction of the entrance with his hands behind his back.
Perhaps hearing the footsteps, the old man slowly turned around. His skin was green, his pupils were golden, and the breath he exuded seemed to be unfathomable. Liu Ming once felt this kind of pressure from Ye Tianmei.
This old man was obviously also a Crystallization Period powerhouse with a terrifying cultivation!
And from the appearance of this old man, Liu Ming could judge that the other party should be a Beastman Clan.
On the way here, Liu Ming had already inquired clearly that this Beastman Clan was actually just a name. It wasn't that they really looked like beastman Beastman Clan, or that their bloodline was really related to beastman.
However, in many aspects, especially in terms of physical fitness, the Beastman Clan was indeed incomparable to ordinary human beings.
Most of the Beastman Clan were born strong, and their bones were extremely dense and solid. Once they embarked on the path of cultivation, they would mostly practice cultivation methods that had the effect of tempering their physical bodies. This was quite similar to the body refinement warriors of the human race, but unlike the body refinement warriors of the human race, the slightest mistake would cause their bodies to collapse. Furthermore, the power of the body refinement warriors of the human race could not be mentioned in the same breath.
The Beastman Clan old man was wearing a purple robe, and the cuff was imprinted with a crystal-like silver pattern, which seemed to indicate that his status in the Crystal Valley was not low.
Now Liu Ming knew where Ye Tianmei brought him to. Obviously, this place was the real control place of the Crystal Valley in Valley South City.
When Ye Tianmei saw the old man, her face moved slightly. She seemed to be a little surprised, but she returned to normal in a blink of an eye. She stared at the old man and said faintly,
"It turns out to be Mr. Meng Ning. I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect that you have also stepped into the Crystallization Period. Congratulations. "
Listening to what this woman said, she actually knew the Beastman Clan old man in front of her.
The Beastman Clan old man named Meng Ning smiled bitterly when he heard the words, and then he said with some gratitude,
"Fairy Ye must be joking. I have been trapped in the Condensation Period later stage for dozens of years. If it weren't for the opportunity later, I'm afraid I would have exhausted my lifespan and passed away. In addition, if Fairy Ye didn't help me at that time, I'm afraid I would have … "
"Let's not talk about the past for the time being. I came here today because I have something to ask you." In the face of Meng Ning's grateful words, Ye Tianmei didn't seem to hear it at all. She waved her hand and interrupted the other's words.
"If Fairy Ye has anything to ask, just ask. I, Meng Ning, will tell you everything I know." Meng Ning also knew a little about Ye Tianmei's temper, so he wasn't surprised when he heard it. Instead, he nodded slowly.
Although he knew that Ye Tianmei saved his life in the past, it was just a matter of convenience, but he was still somewhat grateful to Ye Tianmei.
Otherwise, with his current status and the strength of the Crystallization Period powerhouse, he didn't have to be so humble to Ye Tianmei.
"What I want to ask is nothing else. I think you should already know that many Condensation Period cultivators have disappeared inexplicably in Valley South City in the past year?" Ye Tianmei's beautiful eyes flashed, and she asked Meng Ning.
"En, I have indeed heard of this matter. What does Fairy Ye want to ask? " Meng Ning didn't directly answer Ye Tianmei's question. He was silent for a while before he slowly replied.
"Among them, there are two deputies of my Yunchuan Alliance who are missing." Ye Tianmei stared at Meng Ning, and her tone began to become cold. She said word by word.
As Meng Ning heard the words, the muscles on his face moved imperceptibly.
Although the Yunchuan Alliance was established for a short time, after integrating the power of many Sect in the Yunchuan Continent, it almost became one of the largest forces in the Sea Region under the Sea Region Royal Family and Siren King.
Although Crystal Valley didn't have much contact with the Yunchuan Alliance, it naturally had to give some face to this alliance. Not to mention that he and Ye Tianmei were old acquaintances, and he knew how terrifying this woman was.
"I have now found out that the two deputies of the Yunchuan Alliance disappeared not long after entering Valley South City a few months ago, and they originally planned to make a deal with Crystal Valley. Shouldn't Mr. Meng give me an explanation? "Ye Tianmei's voice was slightly raised as if she was reminding Meng Ning of something.
"Oh, I didn't expect that the two deputies of your alliance were also missing in the city. This is a bit beyond my expectation. I don't know if the two deputies have any hatred in Valley South City. Maybe they are being sought by the enemy. "The look on Meng Ning's face was a little weird. After a while, he said slowly.
When Ye Tianmei heard the words, her face sank. She immediately released an amazing momentum from her body. The breath of her body became as sharp as a sword, and she said coldly,
"Meng Ning, do you think I will believe such an explanation? If you don't give me an explanation today, I'm afraid the next time the alliance sends someone, it won't be me alone. It just so happens that our alliance has just been established, and we need to find an opportunity to demonstrate to the outside world. "
"Fairy Ye, don't misunderstand! I have only heard a little about this. I was also recently sent here by the valley. Therefore, I really don't know much about what happened in the city during that period of time. If fairy doesn't believe it, you can inquire about it yourself. Since I took charge of this city, has anyone disappeared like this? "Meng Ning sighed with a helpless expression.
