"They … they're missing?" Hearing Xiao Fan's words, Mu Han seemed to have thought of something she couldn't accept. Her body trembled as she said with a pale face, "Then, could they have been …?"
"Impossible!" Xiao Fan understood what Mu Han wanted to say. He shook his head and looked around, "There are no traces of Demonic Insects here. The reason why this is a safe place is because there are many Blazing Fire Spirit Stones buried here. Blazing Fire Spirit Stones are what Demonic Insects hate the most. Therefore, unless provoked, Demonic Insects would usually turn around and leave as soon as they get close to this place!"
"Then where did they go?" Mu Han didn't doubt Xiao Fan's words at all. She immediately calmed down a lot, but she still couldn't completely relax. She was still full of worry and anxiety as she asked.
"They should have been taken away by someone!" Xiao Fan looked around, especially at the place where Aunt Mu Han and the others were resting. He paused for a long time before saying.
"Who took them away?" Mu Han was stunned.
"Yes. Moreover, they were taken away not long ago, at most two hours. There are still remnants of their aura in the air. If we follow the remnants of their aura, we will definitely be able to find them!" Xiao Fan's gloomy eyes flashed with a dim light. He picked up Mu Han with one hand and rushed towards the back of the main hall.
"Let's go!" Mu Han also shouted, her eyes full of hope.
The white jade tiger and Night Monkey hurriedly followed Xiao Fan.
.....
Less than half an hour after Xiao Fan and Mu Han left the main hall, Zu Luo, Shen Tu Ye, Ning Yue and the rest of the people from various factions also arrived at the main hall.
However, unlike Xiao Fan and Mu Han, they had come from a different direction. Xiao Fan and Mu Han had come from the left, while Zu Luo, Shen Tu Ye, Ning Yue, and the other forces had come from the right.
Although the paths they took were different, they all led to the same destination. In the end, everyone arrived at the safest Hub Hall.
"These demonic insects seem to have grown stronger. The last time we were here, we didn't lose so many people!" Zu Luo said with a gloomy expression as he looked at the army that had been reduced by more than half. Almost everyone was covered in bloodstains and terrifying wounds.
"Indeed, many Demonic Insects have a clear increase in strength!" Shen Tuye frowned. "Furthermore, it's only been a few years. Don't tell me that in a few more years, the strength of these demonic insects will increase again?"
"If these Demonic Insects really increase in strength and escape from the Black Dragon Mountain Range, it will be a huge problem!" Ling Qingfeng said in a serious tone.
"There's no need to worry. Although we don't know why these Demonic Insects haven't left the Black Dragon Mountain Range, there must be a reason behind it!" Feng Yipeng nodded and said, "Since these Demonic Insects haven't left the Black Dragon Mountain Range for over a hundred years, I'm afraid that they won't leave in the future."
Everyone glanced at Feng Yipeng, but did not say anything.
"Everyone, let's take a rest first. After resting for a while, we'll continue our journey!" Li Donglai suggested.
Hearing this, everyone disregarded everything and found a place to sit down, panting heavily. Some drank water and ate dry rations, some took off their clothes and used pills to bandage their wounds, and some just sat there, their chests heaving up and down as they stared at the ceiling of the main hall.
"Lady Ning Shuang, what are you looking at?" Out of everyone, only Ning Shuang was unscathed, and her clothes were spotless. At this moment, Zhao Xuan saw Ning Shuang walking around the main hall casually, as if she was investigating something. He immediately asked curiously as his subordinates bandaged the wound on his arm.
"Before we came, there were already people here. Some of them even stayed here for a few days!" Ning Shuang was still looking at the ground, and she did not even raise her head as she spoke.
"What?" Hearing Ning Shuang's words, everyone immediately turned pale with fright and cried out in shock.
They had entered the Bi Xingmen Ruins in such a hurry, and even though they were severely injured, they did not plan to rest in the main hall for too long. They wanted to be the first to enter the depths of the ruins and obtain the treasures.
Now, they felt that their actions were already fast enough. However, they did not expect that someone would enter the Bi Xingmen Ruins before them, and possibly obtain the treasures in the Bi Xingmen Ruins. How could this not make them pale?
"Lady Ning Shuang, are you sure?" Wu Yu asked in a serious tone.
"I'm sure!" Ning Shuang seemed to have finally finished investigating the situation in the main hall. She stood up and returned to the group of people from the Four Directions Merchant Group. She spoke indifferently without even looking back.
"God dammit, who entered the ruins before us?" Zu Luo clenched his fists. His face was sunken as he called out softly.
Out of everyone, Zu Luo wanted to obtain the treasures the most. This was because he knew very well that he was an illegitimate child. Although Zuo Changge had died and he had been pushed forward, whether he could become the next master of the Watercloud Sacred Land was still uncertain. After all, his identity as an illegitimate child was just too fatal.
If he wanted to increase his weight and become the next master of the Watercloud Sacred Land, he had to increase his strength and prove his worth to the seven Laozu of the Watercloud Sacred Land.
Killing intent silently rose in Zu Luo's heart due to the fact that someone might get in his way.
"The ruins only open once every eight years. When we entered the entrance, there was clearly no one else. Who entered before us?" Shen Tuye said with a heavy voice.
"Don't tell me there's another entrance? We didn't see anyone else when we entered the ruins, and we didn't see anyone else along the way either! "Ning Yue lowered his eyes and said thoughtfully.
"We can't rule out this possibility. Although we've explored the ruins for a long time, there are still many places that we haven't explored. Perhaps there are other entrances and gates in the places that we haven't explored!" Ling Qingfeng nodded and agreed with Ning Yue's speculation.
"There's no point in discussing who entered before us. Everyone, let's not delay any longer. Let's go!" Tang Liuyu stood up and said.
"Let's go!" Lady Ning Shuang was the first to stand up. She then led the people from the Four Directions Merchant Group to the back of the main hall. This was also the direction that Xiao Fan and Mu Han had entered.
"Let's go!"
