Along the way, the two of them were silent because they were shy. Needless to say, Zhan Chen. Especially Su Yun, who had a strange feeling in her heart. Carrying a grown man on her back made her feel weird. She was eager to save him and didn't think too much about it.
Especially when Zhan Chen breathed out from his nostrils, blowing on her ears, it made her abnormally sensitive. Su Yun's face instantly turned red. Her heart also felt as if there was a little deer bouncing around, beating wildly.
She couldn't help but quickly suppress this strange feeling. She shouted in her heart, "Su Yun, what are you thinking about! Zhan Chen is just an injured person. He needs to be taken care of! He's just your Shidi! "
Gradually, the mountain where the mine was located appeared in their field of vision. Zhan Chen hurriedly said to Su Yun, "Shijie, quickly put me down. I can do it!"
Su Yun ran forward for a while.
Zhan Chen anxiously said, "Quickly put me down. If we go any further, we'll be discovered!"
Only then did Su Yun stop and put Zhan Chen down. She asked, "Can you really do it? Do you want me to help you? "
"No need!" Zhan Chen hurriedly waved his hand. In order to show that he could do it, he even took a few steps forward. Indeed, the recovery ability of a Martial Master was very strong. He had already recovered from his serious injuries.
Thus, the two of them slowly walked back. On the way, they even met the Shijie who was on duty. Fortunately, they didn't give themselves away.
That night, Zhan Chen lay on the bed. He couldn't sleep for a long time. Although he and Su Yun had agreed on the same story, he still felt that he had missed something.
What exactly was it? Suddenly, it was as if a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind. "It's a letter! That's right, Gao Fa wrote a letter to me and Hong Zhigang. My letter is easy to deal with, but if Hong Zhigang's letter was discovered by someone else, wouldn't there be a problem? "
This was a big flaw! Sweat appeared on Zhan Chen's forehead. He thought, "It seems that I'm not meticulous enough. Something big almost happened!"
So, he quickly got up and quietly went to Hong Zhigang's room. He gently pushed the door. Fortunately, the door was not locked, and it was opened immediately. Then, Zhan Chen sneaked in and shifted his gaze to the table. Sure enough, he found the letter that Gao Gao had written to him.
Zhan Chen quickly put the letter into his arms. Only when he sneaked back to his room and closed the door did he heave a sigh of relief. He calmed down and continued to think about what he had missed. "In order to gain Hong Zhigang's and my trust, Gao must have wiped away all the clues. Therefore, other than these two letters, there should be no flaws."
Thinking of this, Zhan Chen finally calmed down. He crushed the two letters into powder. This way, this secret would forever rot in his stomach. Next, as long as Su Yun cooperated well, there would be no problem.
The next day, Hong Zhigang and Gao Fa's disappearance was discovered. Huang Yue also sent people to search for traces of the two. However, the bamboo shoot peak was very far from here. Those people would not be able to search there. In the end, three days passed without any results.
So, Huang Yue took advantage of the early morning division of work. She gathered everyone in the room and asked, "Hong Zhigang and Gao Fa's disappearance, I think everyone knows? Do you have any clues? "
"I have!" A person cried out.
"Oh, what clues?"
"I remember clearly. That night, I was on duty. But I saw Su Yun and Zhan Chen coming back very late."
"Zhan Chen?" Huang Yue's sharp eyes stared at him.
Thump thump thump. At this time, Zhan Chen felt his heart was beating wildly. It seemed that Huang Yue had found out that he was related to this matter. He tried to comfort himself in his heart, "Zhan Chen, you have to calm down. Otherwise, you will really be exposed!"
This was really a secret war! On the surface, Zhan Chen made himself look no different from usual. He cupped his hands and said to Huang Yue, "Senior Brother, that day I went out with Senior Sister Su Yun?"
"What did you go to do?" Huang Yue continued to ask.
"About this? I am embarrassed to say. "Zhan Chen pretended to be shy and buried his head. At the same time, he also concealed his inner uneasiness.
"Pfft," a few people in the crowd could not help but laugh out loud. Everyone's eyes were filled with ridicule, and they had an expression of understanding.
Su Yun used her eyes to fiercely cut Zhan Chen's eyes.
Huang Yue's expression was serious. He did not laugh. Instead, he turned his head and asked Su Yun, "Su Yun, is what Zhan Chen said true?"
At this time, Su Yun's face was already red. She nodded, but then shook her head vigorously. She explained, "Everyone, don't misunderstand. Zhan Chen and I only went out to chat. It is not what you think!"
But everyone had already been prejudiced. Even if Su Yun tried to explain, it was useless.
However, Zhan Chen's sudden inspiration really had a good effect. Even though Huang Yue had a stomach full of questions, he could not say anything.
An interrogation to catch the culprit ended in this farce. After that, Huang Yue reported the situation to Pei Yan Xue and applied to the sect to send people to investigate.
In the end, the sect only symbolically sent out two people to search the vicinity. They also found people to ask one by one. Then, they hastily ended the search and did not continue. After all, the sect would not go all out for two ordinary inner court disciples. Soon, there would be new inner court disciples to replace their positions.
Therefore, the disappearance of Hong Zhigang and Gao Fa became an eternal mystery. And all of this, only two people knew the most. One was Zhan Chen, and the other was Ling Aoxue. Of course, neither of them would say anything.
The remaining two months passed quickly. Zhan Chen did not encounter any more danger and returned safely.
As soon as he returned to the sect, Zhan Chen went to the Experience Hall to retrieve the merit points for this mission. There was a total of 300,000 merit points!
The hard work of half a year had finally paid off. Zhan Chen was quite happy.
After that, he went straight to the Flying Clouds Peak and paid a visit to his master, Zhao He.
As soon as they met, Zhao He said, "Zhan Chen, I have missed you so much for the past half a year!"
Zhan Chen got up and replied, "I also missed you very much. That's why I came to see you as soon as I came back."
Zhao He looked him up and down, then nodded and said, "It's good that you came back safely. You even broke through. Your cultivation speed makes me a little jealous."
Zhan Chen nodded and said, "I was just lucky."
Zhao He asked again, "Your forced mission this time was probably set up by that old thing Lan Hong. Did you encounter any danger?"
"Master, not only Lan Hong, but also Wang Yin!"
"Oh? What happened? "
So, Zhan Chen briefly explained the grievances between him and Wang Yin.
Zhao He fell into deep thought and then said, "Your cultivation still needs to be improved. When Wang Yin and Lan Hong work together, it is indeed troublesome."
Zhan Chen asked, "Master, do you have a way to quickly improve my cultivation?"
"I don't recommend you to use medicinal pills. Medicinal pills should only be used when you have no other choice. Didn't you get 300,000 merit points from this mission? Why not try the Cultivation Tower?"
"Cultivation Tower?" Zhan Chen had heard many times about the wonders of that place, but because he had been busy practicing the Golden Demon Sword Art, he had never been there. This time, his master mentioned this place again, so he really should go and have a look.
