Long Yang insisted that Ye Qinghan rest. Although it was to please him, it was also for his safety.
Ye Qinghan recuperated in the Li family's immortal treasure store for another half a month before returning to the Qian family.
During this time, the Qian family's martial arts field was occupied. Other than the divine bird and the Jade Mountain Beast, no one dared to approach. Qian Xue and the other youths could only cultivate outside the city.
On this day, Li Peize and Long Yang brought the cat demon to gather a group of Sky Immortal level miners. Most of them were old, weak, and sick. They didn't have much battle strength and could only rely on mining to survive.
They waited outside Longyang City while Ye Qinghan went to the Qian family alone. The Jade Mountain Beast and the divine bird had not left Ye Qinghan's side for the past few days. Ye Qinghan's news had reached the divine bird at all times. Otherwise, the divine bird would have rushed to the immortal treasure store with the Jade Mountain Beast.
When the divine bird saw Ye Qinghan, it immediately flew over. It was not used to seeing him naked.
Ye Qinghan smiled as he grabbed the divine bird and jumped onto the back of the Mount Jade Beast. He patted the back of the Mount Jade Beast and said, "Let's go back to the mine and finish up. It's time to head to the Ancient Emperor Academy."
"Boom!"
The Jade Mountain Beast crushed the martial arts field and rushed out of Longyang City.
There was a large group of miners waiting outside the city. The caravan was ready to go to the Xuanmu Immortal Mine.
Ye Qinghan rode the Jade Mountain Beast at the front. He was as fast as lightning. The caravan pulling the miners didn't dare to get close to the Jade Mountain Beast. Even Long Yang and Li Peize kept a safe distance.
After a few days of frantic running, the group once again arrived at the mine. Ye Qinghan led the Mount Jade Beast into the mine and discovered that the originally sealed mine entrance had been opened. There were still some blood stains on the messy gravel. Judging from the traces that had yet to dry, the blood must have been dripped onto the mine not too long ago.
"Someone came in. Seal the entrance and see if those people are still inside." Ye Qinghan frowned. He did not expect that someone would dare to steal from the Longyang City Lord's mine.
Long Yang was furious. He ordered the Cat Demon to bring a group of consecrators to block the entrance of the cave. Then, he rushed into the cave with Li Peize and the others.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The miners were divided into several teams, each of them blocking the entrances of the tunnels. Ye Qinghan and the rest continued to go deeper into the tunnels. When the torches illuminated the tunnels, they discovered that the insides of the tunnels were also stained with blood.
Ye Qinghan continued to follow the trail of blood. There were collapsed rocks everywhere, and many paths had been blocked. The trail of blood extended all the way into the depths.
Roar!!
The Mount Jade Beast growled and rampaged through the cave. In order not to collapse the mine, Ye Qinghan had no choice but to leave it in a huge cave and proceed alone.
There was a faint light in the depths, and a faint fire element overflowed from within.
Ye Qinghan stuck close to the stone wall, his eyes flashing. He casually took out a mid-grade Xuan Mu as an attack weapon.
Whoosh!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh …
Ye Qinghan's footsteps echoed in the cave, but there was also the sound of breathing inside.
The bends in the cave were all over the place, and visibility was very low. The sound of swords being unsheathed could be heard from inside the cave, indicating that they were on high alert.
Whoosh!
Ye Qinghan suddenly turned around and entered a main cave. There were a few tunnels that led to this place, and there were a few young people stationed here. Most of them were at the peak of the Heaven Immortal realm, and their auras were very powerful. Their immortal swords were already unsheathed, and all of them were aimed at Ye Qinghan.
There were six of them, four men and two women. They looked to be around twenty-four or twenty-five years old. The men were handsome and vigorous, while the women were devastatingly beautiful. They were definitely at the level of fairies. Their bodies were heavily injured, and their clothes were tattered. Their hair was disheveled, but it still could not hide their temperament, which was very unique.
When Ye Qinghan saw them, he was stunned for a moment, but the other party was even more stunned. They didn't think that Ye Qinghan was actually a Spiritual Body, and they didn't think that he would actually use a piece of Profound Mother Immortal Steel to smash them. Coupled with the Divine Bird's strange appearance, this combination shouldn't be an enemy.
"Who are you people?" Ye Qinghan asked with a frown. "Why have you come to our mine?"
Out of the six men and women, four of them stood at the very front, shielding the two women behind them. They stared at Ye Qinghan in astonishment. They hadn't expected that this mine, which looked like a ruin, was still being mined. They had thought that it was already a waste mine.
"Sorry, we thought this was a waste mine, so we hid here for a while. We did not touch the things here, so don't be nervous." The young expert in the lead, who was slightly chubby, said first. Perhaps he was the leader of this group.
Whoosh!
At this moment, Li Peize and Long Yang also rushed over. They drew their swords, and the cold intent of their spears filled the sky. At this moment, the situation in the cave was very tense.
However, this cave was not suitable for fighting, because the mountain had been hollowed out, and there was a lot of Xuan Mu Immortal Steel above. If a large area collapsed, this group of people would die here.
Ye Qinghan quickly comforted both sides, and said, "They are not here to steal the mine. Don't be nervous."
Long Yang frowned as he looked at this group of people. This group of young people all had powerful auras and extraordinary temperaments, but he did not recognize any of them. Finally, he looked at Li Peize. After all, he was also a young man, a true king of the same level. He should know many young experts.
Li Peize was also very puzzled. This group of people's temperaments were definitely on the Heaven Roll, but they were definitely not on the Heaven Roll of the Center God Province.
"I am Li Peize, on the Heaven Roll of the Center God Province. May I ask who you are?" Li Peize asked with cupped fists.
Li Peize was very famous in the Center God Province, but this group of young people did not show any emotion. It was as if they had not even heard of his name.
The group of young people looked at each other and cupped their fists, but they did not introduce themselves. They only said that they were not here to steal the mine.
"I am Long Yang, the City Lord of Longyang City. Can you tell me your identities?" Long Yang asked personally.
However, this group of people still did not want to reveal their identities. They drew their swords and forced Ye Qinghan to let them out of the cave.
Ye Qinghan took a deep breath. He knew that this group of people must be in a dangerous place. Otherwise, they would not be so cautious. He waved his hand to signal Li Peize and Long Yang to retreat.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
Ye Qinghan quickly retreated. He was not willing to risk his life here with this group of people. Crazy people dared to do anything.
The group of young people was also sizing up Ye Qinghan. They did not expect that Ye Qinghan, a young soul at the beginner stage of the Heaven Immortal Realm, would be the backbone of this group of people.
The two beautiful women had been staring at Ye Qinghan the entire time. They weren't just flower vases. They were probably swift and decisive female heroes. They were dressed in tight battle armor and brimmed with battle intent. They were probably rare female battle immortals.
Ye Qinghan left the cave with an attitude of not provoking trouble. He blocked the six people at the entrance of the cave. Under the sunlight, this group of people's fierce aura was even more exposed.
"Nephew, we have to figure out the identity of this group of people. If they are enemy spies, then I have neglected my duty as the City Lord," Long Yang said in a deep voice.
Ye Qinghan wanted to let this group of people leave, but Long Yang was unwilling. It was also his duty. He could only block them at the entrance of the cave and not allow them to leave.
The Mount Jade Beast bowed slightly, ready to charge at any time. These six people had a lot of Qi and blood. They were very good rations. As long as Ye Qinghan nodded, it would not let a single person go.
