Su Mo and Bai Xinghe dove into the lake together.
The moment they entered the lake, Su Mo felt an endless chill that went straight into his soul. He needed to use his Soul Power to protect his body.
The lake was very deep. Even the edge of the lake was more than a thousand feet deep.
The bottom of the lake was hard and they stepped on the stone floor.
The dark lake water and the thick fog that could not be dispersed not only blocked their vision, but also their Spiritual Senses and other senses.
If it was a normal martial artist at the Completion Fate Realm, their vision and Spiritual Senses would not be able to sense more than 15 feet.
Even a Lower Heaven Expansion Realm martial artist's perception range was at most 200 feet.
This showed how difficult it was to search in the Cold Lake.
However, Bai Xinghe was a Lower Heaven Expansion Realm martial artist who had mastered the Five Elements Way of Yin and Yang. Not only did he display the Way of Water, which resonated with the water property power in the lake, he also displayed the Way of Fire. His body emitted a bright fiery light that shone in all directions, improving his vision and perception.
However, this did not solve the problem. After a long time, Bai Xinghe's Spiritual Soul Power would be greatly depleted. Moreover, he was also worried that the bright fiery light would easily alert the fruit tree and alert the enemy.
Therefore, after searching for four to six hours, Bai Xinghe did not display any supernatural powers. He simply walked at the bottom of the lake and searched silently.
Su Mo followed Bai Xinghe. His body was protected by Bai Xinghe's Soul Power, so he did not feel much pressure.
"Bai Yan, how did you come across this fruit tree?"
Bai Xinghe asked as he searched at the bottom of the lake.
"I was chased by a demonic beast and escaped into this lake. I happened to come across this fruit tree." Su Mo said in a deep voice.
"Oh? Such a coincidence? "Bai Xinghe's tone was filled with surprise.
"Maybe it's because my luck is good!" Su Mo smiled, but his heart sank. Was Bai Yan doubting the authenticity of his words?
However, he was not worried. Bai Yan could not verify his words.
Moreover, whether or not Bai Xinghe and the others would be able to return alive was another matter.
Before he came, he had already sent a message to You You, asking her to inform the Dim Sacred Palace to send people to the Cold Lake to kill the Bai Family.
He had also promised them some benefits, so he believed that the Dim Light Sacred Palace would not slack off.
The only thing he had to pay attention to was that he couldn't kill all of them. This was also the main point he had told You You.
If everyone from the Bai family died and he returned alive, everyone would know that there was something wrong with him.
Also, with so many people in the Bai family, he wasn't sure if there were any clones outside.
Therefore, he couldn't kill them all.
"Then you really have heaven-defying luck. This is your great fortune!" Bai Xinghe nodded and did not pursue the matter.
"Perhaps the heavens are blessing our Bai Family!" Su Mo laughed. He was not in a hurry and he quietly waited for the people from Dim Sacred Palace to arrive.
Today, he would not make a move, and he would even join forces with the Bai Clan to fight against the Dim Sacred Palace.
In any case, he still had to keep up appearances.
As Bai Xinghe continuously advanced towards the depths of the Frost Che Lake, he would occasionally receive messages from other members of the Bai Family. The contents were all the same; they hadn't discovered any fruit trees, nor had they encountered any danger.
Forget about fruit trees, not a single plant existed at the bottom of the lake.
Just like that, the group continued to search and more than 20 hours passed.
At this time, Bai Xinghe realized that a few members of the Bai Family had not sent him any messages for more than two hours.
Bai Xinghe immediately sent messages to these people, but all the messages were like stones sinking into the ocean. There was no response.
"Something's wrong!"
Bai Xinghe's face was grave as he immediately sent messages to the others, asking them to gather around him.
"Grandpa, what's wrong?" Su Mo saw that Bai Xinghe's expression was not right and could not help but ask curiously.
"Let's go up!"
Bai Xinghe did not allow Su Mo to speak. He waved his sleeves and swept Su Mo up, immediately heading toward the lake.
The Soul Power in his body fluctuated like the sea, emitting a red fire-based light that illuminated the eternal darkness and pointed out the location to the others.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
In an instant, a group of Bai Family members flashed in from all directions.
"Where are the others?"
Bai Xinghe looked around at the crowd and his face darkened. There were only 13 people gathered here.
Originally, the group of Bai Family members, excluding Su Mo and Bai Xinghe, had a total of 19 people.
However, now there were actually six people missing and their whereabouts were unknown.
"I don't see them."
Bai Yi shook his head, looking dumbfounded.
"Father, three groups of people are missing. Could they have met with some danger?" Bai Feng asked with a grave expression. His eyes glanced at Su Mo, intentionally or unintentionally.
Bai Xinghe was silent as he looked around at the endless darkness. There was no response from the six higher-ups of the Bai Family, and they could not sense his strong Soul Power and Great Way Power fluctuations. They must have met with misfortune.
"We have to find the fruit tree as soon as possible and leave this place!"
Bai Xinghe's face darkened as he suddenly looked at Su Mo and said, "Bai Yan, grandpa wants to check your memory to find out the specific situation of the fruit tree."
"Check my memory?" Su Mo was startled and put on an awkward expression.
He knew that Bai Xinghe was already suspicious of him. The so-called check of memory was probably not to check on the fruit tree, but to check if what he said was true and if there was any hidden information.
"Don't worry, I won't check your privacy. I just want to see the fruit tree in your memory." Bai Xinghe said with narrowed eyes. As long as he checked his memory, he would be able to find out what was going on.
If Bai Yan did not want to check his memory, then there was definitely something wrong.
"Alright, grandpa, feel free to check it!" Su Mo nodded and agreed generously.
Now, he only had two choices. Either he agreed, or he killed someone.
He chose the former because he knew that the experts of the Dim Sacred Palace must be nearby. Otherwise, how could the six people of the Bai Family disappear without anyone knowing?
Moreover, he believed that the people of the Dim Sacred Palace would definitely not let his memory be checked.
Otherwise, not only would he be exposed, but some of the secrets of the Dim Sacred Palace would also be exposed.
For example, You You and Min Ao, and the Great Way Crystal.
"Alright!"
Seeing that Bai Yan was also checking his memory, Bai Xinghe nodded slightly. It seemed that there was nothing wrong with Bai Yan.
Thus, he was ready to check his memory.
Just at this moment, something strange happened.
From the darkness, a group of people suddenly walked out and surrounded the Bai Family.
"Who are you?"
The Bai Family was shocked and immediately looked around at these uninvited guests. With one look, their faces changed.
The Night God Clan!
This group of people who had suddenly appeared were actually the Night God Clan of the Dim Dark World. There were more than 20 of them.
Among them, there were two of them who had reached the Heaven Splitting Realm.
"Are you people of the Dim Sacred Palace?"
Bai Xinghe's face instantly turned serious as he looked around at the group of uninvited guests warily. His gaze first swept across the two Heaven Splitting Realm experts.
Of the two people, one was a haggard elder and the other was a middle-aged man. The elder's cultivation was actually at the middle of the Heaven Splitting Realm.
Very quickly, Bai Xinghe's gaze stopped on the other person. The other person seemed to be the leader.
The person in the lead was a young woman. Her figure was tall and slender, and her face was beautiful and alluring. She had a pair of seven-colored wings on her back that glowed with light, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"You are the legendary Holy Lady of the Dim Sacred Palace, Ye Ying?" Bai Xinghe stared intently at the lady.
The Soul Race knew a lot about the situation of the Dim Sacred Palace. Almost everyone in the Soul Race had heard of the legendary Holy Lady.
They all knew that the Holy Lady of the Dim Sacred Palace was the true ruler of the Dim Sacred Palace.
There were many Holy Sons that could be changed at any time, but there was only one Holy Lady.
The Holy Lady was also the soul of the Dim Sacred Palace!
The most important person!
In the past, the Soul Race had used all kinds of methods to capture and kill the Holy Lady of the Dim Sacred Palace. However, they had never succeeded.
This woman had hidden herself very well. There were no clues at all.
Bai Xinghe did not expect to meet the Holy Lady of the Dim Sacred Palace, Ye Ying, at the Frost Che Lake today.
