The battle started quickly and ended quickly as well. In less than twenty breaths of time, such a ferocious Demonic Beast had been killed. The few Spirit Stream Stage cultivators who had been rescued were dumbstruck, unable to regain their senses for a long time.
It was only then that Nightingale finally arrived. Lu Ye stepped on the Jade Scale Python and pulled out the Mountain Pan Saber. He glanced at Ye Ying, "Is it this vicious beast?"
"It should be." Ye Ying nodded.
Mission complete!
This mission was much easier than the mission to find the person. It was mainly because the team of six cooperated seamlessly, and all six of them had decent strength. That was why they were able to take it down without any casualties.
There was no need to rush back. To be safe, it would be better to patrol the surroundings. In any case, it wouldn't take too much time.
As Lu Ye thought this, he suddenly raised his head and looked in a certain direction. He saw a streak of light quickly flying over. Feeling the spiritual energy fluctuations, it was obviously a True Lake Realm cultivator.
Lu Ye waved his hand without leaving a trace. Ye Ying cupped her fists silently and quickly retreated, disappearing without a trace.
Ye Ying's identity was extremely hidden. It was best not to show her face in front of others.
Lu Ye didn't know who it was, but it was very likely that it was someone from a nearby sect or family who had noticed the commotion and came to investigate.
A moment later, the person landed, revealing his figure. Lu Ye looked over and saw that it was a white-haired old man. Although he was old, his body was sturdy, and his vitality was abundant. It was obvious that he walked the path of a body cultivator.
"Great Elder!" The Spirit Stream Realm cultivators who were still in shock cried out in grief.
"What happened?" The old man asked.
Among them, the younger ones calmed down and told him what had happened, "You were following Senior Brother Wan to patrol the surroundings. When you passed by this place, this beast suddenly attacked and swallowed Senior Brother Wan whole. It also wanted to eat you. It was these people who saved you." As I spoke, I pointed to Mei Jian and the others.
Hearing this, the old man became angry, "Lu Ye, such a vicious beast actually appeared in your territory. Why didn't you notice it later?" He had a pained expression.
Turning around, he looked at Chen Lie and the others, "This old man is Lu Ye, Little Elder Mei Jian. May I ask who you are?"
Chen Lie cupped his fists and said in a low voice, "Law Enforcement Division, Fourth Squad Chen Lie."
The Chen family was shocked. "The Law Enforcement Hall?"
Chen Lie explained, "Later on, when I received news that there were no ferocious beasts in this area, I came to investigate and happened to see this ferocious beast attacking people."
"I see." Chen Jia's expression turned anxious. "I still have to thank everyone for saving the lives of you, Lu Ye, and a few other capable disciples."
"It is the Law Enforcement Hall's duty to punish evil and eradicate traitors."
"To the Hall of Justice, it's part of our duty," Mei Jian said. "But to you, Lu Ye, and the other disciples, it's a life-saving grace." Turning to look at the cultivators, Mei Jian said, "Take your time. Thank you, Senior Brothers and Sisters."
After the cultivators hurriedly left, they sincerely expressed their thanks.
Chen Lie waved his hand, indicating that he would definitely take it to heart. Back then, we came here to carry out a mission, but in the end, we were still one step too late, unable to save Senior Brother Wan's life.
The Chen family said, "I dare not forget the life-saving grace. If everyone wants to leave, can you, Lu Ye, let Mei Jian do the honors of a host?"
"Little Elder is too polite. Your mission has been completed, so you can return after patrolling the surrounding area." If the mission was completed and they had to hurry back to hand in the mission and collect the merit points, they wouldn't have time to waste outside.
"If that's the case, all of you can immediately send a message to dispatch some people to casually investigate a hundred kilometers away. If there's nothing out of the ordinary, immediately inform all of you. After all, this is your territory. Protecting the safety of the mortals in your territory is also your duty, Lu Ye. How could I dare to trouble the elites of the Law Enforcement Hall?" The Chen family advised, "Although everyone's cultivation is ordinary, there are only eight of you. If we leave this place to you, Lu Ye, there will definitely be a reason. What do you think?"
Mei Jian pondered for a moment and nodded. "That's fine too."
Under abnormal circumstances, the matters in a sect's territory were indeed the responsibility of the sect. Even if the Law Enforcement Team didn't come on that trip, Lu Ye would still sit by and watch if the Jade-scaled Python caused trouble. He would definitely send the weaker members of the clan to suppress and kill it.
Letting Lu Ye inspect the situation in his territory to make sure there are no other ferocious creatures causing trouble will also save us some trouble.
Moreover, it's already late. Although it won't affect the journey too much, it's still as convenient as during the day. It's too late to rest at Mei Jian for a night.
"Please!" The Chen family extended his hand to invite them and immediately led the way.
Chen Lie nodded slightly and led everyone in front of the Chen family.
After a short while, they arrived at Mei Jian's location. Like the Zhou family in Ding Tian City, Lu Ye's location was at the foot of Mi Mountain, and the environment was even more noisy.
Although there was a large difference in grade between Mei Jian and the Zhou family, the scale of Mei Jian was obviously smaller. There were continuous buildings at the foot of the mountain, all of which belonged to the Zhou family. The figures of various young cultivators could be seen everywhere.
While leading the way, the Chen family explained the situation at Lu Ye's place to Mei Jian and the others, appearing very cold.
However, the difference in age was still quite a bit. Moreover, their seniority was also the same. Furthermore, Chen Lie was someone who could chat with others. He could only respond to Seventeen from time to time. The atmosphere was hot and cold at the same time.
Soon, we arrived at a small hall. It should be Lu Ye's guest hall.
Mei Jian and the others took their seats.
Mei Jian said, "Everyone, please take a seat for a moment. Go and ask the family head to come over. Also, arrange for people to patrol."
Chen Lie had an objection. The Chen family left.
After a while, Lu Ye's servant came to serve tea. After rushing all the way and fighting just now, Chen Lie wasn't thirsty. He picked up the teacup and took a sip.
As soon as the tea entered my stomach, my expression changed slightly. I raised my head and looked at Chen Tianchui. "Don't drink!"
Chen Tianchui hadn't brought the teacup to his mouth when he was surprised. "What's wrong?"
The others also paused in their movements.
"It's not poisonous!" Chen Lie closed his eyes and immersed himself in his Talent Tree. At that moment, a gray mist appeared under the tree. Just like that, I noticed that there was nothing wrong with my God's Lake.
I quickly took a look.
I saw that there was something missing from the God's Lake. It seemed to be a well-known bug. If Chen Lie didn't have his Divine Sense, he wouldn't have noticed it.
I also knew what kind of bug it was. Even the Talent Tree was able to burn it immediately.
And it must have retreated into his body through the mouthful of tea just now.
Mei Jian instantly understood. It wasn't poison outside the tea, but a foreign object!
The Talent Tree did not have an extremely sensitive reaction to foreign objects that invaded its body, which was why it burned into a gray mist.
When the bug got close to the God's Lake, a bunch of flames wrapped around it. Chen Lie heard a sharp and shrill cry before the bug turned into nothing.
The color of the flames that burned the bug was the same as the flames under the Talent Tree. It was obvious that the Talent Tree was showing its strength.
"Dang." Chen Tianchui was so frightened that he threw the teacup in his hand. Although he didn't know how Mei Jian tasted that the tea wasn't poisonous, he was always the most obedient one. He would do whatever the captain said.
Chen Lie opened his eyes and stood up. "Let's go! It was best to stay in a dangerous place.
Just now, I didn't have a strange feeling because the Law Enforcement Hall's reputation had always been very good. After all, they rarely did things that offended people. Sects and clans would always keep a respectful distance from them, but when it came to Lu Ye, they were coldly invited.
Chen Lie thought about it. After all, they had saved the lives of Lu Ye's disciples. It was natural for them to thank them.
But now, it seemed that the so-called thank you was just a pretense. Lu Ye didn't have any plans to benefit us.
I thought about it. What was Lu Ye doing?
If we offended the Disciplinary Hall, we wouldn't have anything good to do. There was no need for such a small family to play with fire.
This bug didn't have any use.
Time was tight. Chen Lie didn't have much time to think. I only knew that it was more important to leave.
At the same time, in a secret room, a Moon Reflecting Plate showed the situation in the small hall. Chen Lie and Lin Yinxiu were watching from outside, monitoring the small hall.
Seeing Chen Lie take a sip of tea, Lin Yinxiu revealed a happy expression, as if a small victory had been decided. However, her happy expression slowly turned into astonishment.
Chen Lie noticed the abnormality in the tea and quickly stood up. In front of me, a man smashed his teacup.
"What's going on?" Chen Lie wasn't dumbfounded. The method given by the High Lord couldn't be noticed unless one was at the Divine Sea Realm. Even if Lu Yiye didn't have the ability, he should have noticed it.
For example, this Nightingale. Before she was captured, she was obedient. Now, although Nightingale was still a member of the Law Division, in reality, she was one of us.
But there were all kinds of signs.
Our methods have been exposed to Chen Lie.
"We can leave!" Lin Yinxiu's reaction was faster than Chen Lie's. Before she realized it, she took out a jade pendant and poured spiritual energy into it.
In an instant, there was a buzzing sound.
"The small formation has been activated. Bring people to stop us. No matter what, we can leave and we can send a message! Except for Lu Yiye, kill everyone else! "Lin Yinxiu slowly ordered.
"Yes!" Mei Jian responded, and hurriedly flashed out.
Lin Yinxiu's forehead was covered in sweat. She felt that today's small matter was wonderful. The main thing was that I didn't expect Mei Jian to be so vigilant. He didn't notice the abnormality in the tea.
The people that the High Lord valued couldn't be underestimated!
Although it was chaotic, Lu Yiye hadn't drunk the tea yet. This thing shouldn't have hatched yet. In this case, Lu Yiye was one of us.
As long as the other seven people had a chance to send a message, they could kill us outside. There was no way to turn the situation around.
Thoughts flashed in her mind. Lin Yinxiu wiped the sweat from her forehead. She raised her hand and tapped on her battlefield imprint to send a message. "Please report to the High Lord."
At the same time, in a secluded place in the War Province.
The lake rippled and the autumn water rippled.
By the lakeside, there were two straw huts. There were no women fishing by the lakeside. Even after fishing for a long time, there were no fish. I was also relaxed. I just sat under the chair with a leisurely expression.
Beside the woman, there was no man with an enchanting figure standing quietly. I knew that he had been standing there for a long time, but he didn't look impatient. He often looked at the side of the woman's face. The man's eyes were full of love.
