Chapter 65 Yan Family Fortress
Chapter 65 Yan Family Fortress
The State of Yue, Yanjiabao.
Han Li held an invitation in his hand, and after confirming that the location was correct, his eyes continued to search the surroundings.
When Han Li happened to see the expression on Qin Fang's face, a sense of doubt arose in his heart.
"Could there be some problem...?"
Han Li didn't think there was anything wrong with the "treasure hunt" organized by the Yan family, but rather that there was some potential danger in the surrounding area.
After all, in Han Li's view, Qin Fang at least had a Core Formation stage spirit puppet, which far surpassed him in terms of spiritual sense.
"What a blockhead!"
"Are all of Master Li Huayuan's disciples such dull-witted people?"
"It's just an invitation, and you've read it five or six times already. Is there some trick to it?!"
Then, a magnetic female voice came from beside him, pulling Han Li back to reality.
This woman is Dong Xuan'er, the one Han Li is being forced to marry.
From the moment they set off from Yellow Maple Valley, this woman had been constantly trying to sow discord between Han Li and Qin Fang...
However, her usual tactics seemed to have no effect on either Han Li or Qin Fang, which made Dong Xuan'er feel extremely distressed.
"If the Yan family still hasn't arrived in a little while..."
Han Li spoke calmly.
On the other side...
Qin Fang stood there, his gaze unfocused.
Logically speaking, he absolutely did not want to participate in the trip to Yanjiabao!
The Yan family patriarch is a genuine Core Formation cultivator, and in addition... the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, Wang Chan, is here, so he must have a Core Formation stage protector by his side.
For Qin Fang, it was still too risky.
However... Qin Fang couldn't refuse this trip!
Unless the teleportation array has been repaired, he can teleport away from Tiannan without having to consider any consequences.
Unfortunately, Qin Fang's efforts to find Xin Ruyin failed, and now even with the Great Teleportation Token, he cannot use that ancient teleportation array to leave Tiannan.
"That old monster Linghu must have sensed something?"
"But I'm not entirely sure?"
"Is that why you sent me to test you?"
"Otherwise, if everything is confirmed, the person sent out will definitely be a true Core Formation cultivator, not me!"
Qin Fang was filled with a myriad of thoughts.
After returning from completing his sect mission, he immediately received a telepathic message from Li Huayuan, instructing him to participate in the "Treasure Hunt" at Yan Family Fortress.
He also implied that this matter was ordered by Linghu Laozu, the only Nascent Soul cultivator in Huangfeng Valley.
One more thing, the 'Thick Earth Bell' in Qin Fang's clone's hands was only able to be obtained as a defective product because of Linghu Patriarch's order.
Don't underestimate this flawed magical artifact; it's still priceless.
It was agreed at the beginning that Qin Fang would need to complete several mandatory missions of the sect before the merit of this magic weapon would be deducted.
After receiving the telepathic message, Qin Fang immediately went to his master Li Huayuan's cave, originally intending to refuse the trip to seize the treasure.
Make up some excuse, such as needing to go into seclusion to break through to a higher level.
But when Li Huayuan said that this was Linghu Laozu's order, Qin Fang knew that he had no chance to refuse!
Even if I don't want to go...
He should leave Huangfeng Valley first before saying no, otherwise he would be disobeying orders within the sect. How could he possibly be a match for Patriarch Linghu?
If the other party makes a move, it would probably be no more difficult than crushing an ant!
"This Yan Family Fortress is fraught with danger..."
Should I leave now?
"Should we still bite the bullet and venture into this den of dragons and tigers?"
Qin was extremely conflicted.
Give up... It's hard to say whether we'll be targeted by Ancestor Linghu. The Core Formation cultivators in the sect will soon be preoccupied with the invasion of the demonic path, so it's unlikely they'll have the time to hunt us down.
But Old Master Linghu is quite idle!
and……
If he were to defect immediately, he would definitely head to Yuanwu Kingdom to find Xin Ruyin.
Only by repairing the teleportation array can he escape the impending chaos in Tiannan.
But! The Yuanwu Kingdom was adjacent to the Yue Kingdom!
Not to mention that Huangfeng Valley is located near the border of Yue Kingdom, and not far from the territory of Yuanwu Kingdom.
Too close!
If the worst-case scenario occurs, he might not even have a chance to escape.
Moreover... after that, Qin Fang probably didn't even dare to use the Thick Earth Bell anymore.
Although this item had already been refined by the clone, who knows if Linghu Laozu left any hidden tricks on it.
"We cannot betray them!"
"We can't defect to Yellow Maple Valley right now!"
"Although the probability is slim, if I really provoke Elder Linghu to take action, I'm absolutely doomed!"
"instead……"
"Although Yan Family Fortress is dangerous, at least the crisis it faces is only at the Core Formation level."
"Now that the first level of my Nine Dragons Suppressing Meridian Technique is becoming increasingly effective, coupled with the assistance of the Demonic Core clone..."
"Even if we encounter some serious crisis, we can just use our clone to escape with us."
"At least in recent years, even though there have been occasional reports of high-level cultivators being seriously injured, very few have actually died."
Qin Fang made plans in his mind.
"Besides~"
"If things truly reach a point of no return, we can always use clones to hold off the enemy!"
"At worst, there's always the option of having your Core Formation clone self-destruct."
"The power of a Core Formation cultivator's self-destruction is no joke!"
Thinking of this, Qin Fang's mind was still in turmoil, but at least it was much more stable than before.
"The Yan family patriarch is powerful and wealthy; he shouldn't risk his life to hunt me down!"
"I only need to keep an eye on Wang Chan, the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect..."
"No, to be more precise, we should pay attention to the one or two Core Formation stage protectors around Wang Chan!"
"But these people's infiltration into Yue was fraught with danger, and their more important task was to protect Wang Chan, the young master, from harm..."
"As long as we stay as far away from Wang Chan as possible, these people won't dare to pursue us too far!"
"If anything happens to Wang Chan, they'll be doomed when they get back."
After the analysis, Qin Fang's confidence increased considerably.
As long as he doesn't deliberately put himself in an overly passive and dangerous situation, this trip to Yanjiabao shouldn't be too dangerous for him.
"Why……"
"The feeling of knowing there's danger, but still having to go..."
"It's really unbearable!"
"Now that this matter is settled, we must find Xin Ruyin as soon as possible!"
"The Yan family's imminent defection means that the invasion of the demonic path is imminent... Tiannan is becoming increasingly turbulent."
"Go and roam the chaotic starry sea as soon as possible!!"
Qin Fang took a deep breath, concealing the seriousness on his face.
Because he noticed someone was approaching.
"Junior Brother... Junior Brother."
"But did you discover anything?"
In the cultivation world, strength is paramount, but Qin Fang's current state is causing Han Li great distress.
I should call him junior brother, but the other party also possesses a Core Formation spirit puppet, whose strength is far beyond my reach.
Call him senior brother... Han Li didn't feel any guilt, but! Li Huayuan took him in first, and then took Qin Fang as a nominal disciple.
Among all of Li Huayuan's disciples, he ranked eighth! Qin Fang was the ninth junior brother.
"No……"
"There's nothing wrong with the surroundings!"
"I……"
"I'm just troubled by something. I was looking for someone in Yuanwu Kingdom to ask them to do something for me."
"But I haven't found it, so I'm a little worried."
Qin Fang initially intended to brush it off with a casual laugh, but then he remembered Xin Ruyin's matter and thus planted a hidden stake in advance.
