C653 Scheming
After the bloodbath of Gu Yang that day, the atmosphere in the entire Gu Yang was extremely low. The lower level people did not know what exactly had happened that day, and even if Jing Hongguang and the others knew the inside story, they would still feel powerless.
And just as the entire Gu Yang was falling into a state of confusion, an old figure appeared out of thin air, extremely far away in the desolate north-west region.
"Ancient bronze door, a demonic being." The old voice murmured to itself, and its eyes were filled with seriousness.
On the other side, in the Qian Yuan Academy that was located in the center of the three great realms, there was also a figure that rushed into the sky, bringing with it a large amount of multicolored light, and shot towards Gu Yang like a meteor.
Many of the disciples in Qian Yuan Academy looked at the figure that was shooting out from the direction of the Inner Palace and began to guess what had happened. Although there was a lot of commotion in Gu Yang, not everyone knew about the Demon Shadow's massacre of Gu Yang.
At the same time, in the Profound Heaven Secret Realm.
All of the Prodigies had gathered in the central area in order to obtain the legendary treasure, but they had been waiting here for almost a day, and still there was no movement. This made some people impatient.
"Didn't they say that this is the place where the treasure is hidden? Why hasn't there been any movement so far?"
"Don't be in such a hurry. Look at those Hidden Geniuses. All of them are calm and composed. This must be the right place. Be patient."
One of them began to complain, while the others comforted him. Looking in the direction the other one was pointing, Ditang and the others were sitting cross-legged on a small hill with their eyes slightly lowered, in a state of semi-cultivation.
While waiting, they did not forget to cultivate. One had to admit that there was a reason why they were valued so much by their own sects.
"The time can't be wrong. There should be some movement in about half a day." On the other mountain, Jing Bolin said to the two Pure Foxes who were standing on the side.
"Yes." Zhan Wuhen didn't have much of an attitude towards this. He only nodded his head, but he was also in a state of semi-cultivation. In his eyes, there seemed to be a peerless sharp sword practicing a set of profound sword techniques. It seemed to be the Cloud Sword Technique.
"We're not in a hurry. We might not get that thing before it comes out, and if we do, it won't belong to us. We'll have to hand it over to the Sect." Zyun Hujing leaned against a big tree and said in a casual manner.
Seeing him like this, Jing Bolin shook his head with a smile and did not say anything.
...
"Why is Lee Zhuohua not here yet?" Lin Yue's eyes were looking for Lee Zhuohua's figure in the crowd, but Lee Zhuohua seemed to have disappeared from the world.
Lin Yue, who was searching for Lee Zhuohua, did not notice that there was someone slowly walking towards her from not far away. This person's aura was steady, and his face was gloomy and gloomy. There was a trace of blood on his right hand - it was Wen Hwa.
The first thing Wen Hwa saw when he arrived was Lin Yue, but he did not immediately cause trouble for him. Although he did not want to admit it, after the arena competition, he was also afraid of Lee Zhuohua.
After observing quietly for a while, he realized that Lee Zhuohua was not here. This made him feel relieved, so he prepared to find trouble with Lin Yue.
Initially, Wen Hwa was only targeting Lin Yue because of Lee Zhuohua, but later on, when the two of them were chasing after Lin Yue, Lin Yue injured Wen Hwa, so it became a conflict between Wen Hwa and Lin Yue.
Furthermore, after Wen Hwa was stabbed by Lin Yue, he discovered the thing that the other party was using to attack him. It was the thing at the bottom of the lake, and it seemed to be a treasure. Wen Hwa also had greedy thoughts in his heart, so he would not let Lin Yue go.
Wen Hwa stared at Lin Yue with a gloomy expression. He was thinking about how he should act righteously. There were other people here and if he tried to snatch the other party's things by force, he would be despised by others. At that time, he might even cause others to be dissatisfied with him and make him unable to succeed.
"Got it."
He thought of a way. A cold light flashed in his gloomy eyes as he walked towards Lin Yue.
Lin Yue did not realize that someone had been observing her. However, when the person was within a hundred feet of her, she finally noticed that someone was heading towards her. She was immediately puzzled as to who was looking for her. Could it be Lee Zhuohua? She turned around and looked over with doubt.
"Not good, it's him." The moment Lin Yue saw Wen Hwa, his pupils contracted slightly. He was secretly shocked in his heart but quickly calmed down.
She looked at the gloomy Wen Hwa who was walking towards her. At first, she was worried that he would attack her here, but when she saw the people around her, she was sure that he wouldn't dare to do anything to her in front of everyone.
Although she was confident in herself, she still felt that something was wrong when she saw him coming straight at her. She didn't know what his purpose was.
"What are you doing?" Lin Yue stared at Wen Hwa vigilantly and asked.
"Give it to me." In the face of Lin Yue's question, Wen Hwa did not say anything more about what had happened before and did not attack him directly. Instead, she stretched out her palm and said to Lin Yue in an unquestionable tone.
"What? I don't have anything for you." Lin Yue was confused by the other party's words and subconsciously said.
As the two of them were in a standoff, the people who had been waiting impatiently for a long time also looked over. They knew Lin Yue and Wen Hwa, but they did not know what kind of conflict there was between the two of them, so they just watched from the other side.
"Stop pretending. Since you stole my things, if you know what's good for you, you can take it out yourself. Don't force me to do it." Wen Hwa took a step closer, and the aura on his body began to stir.
"Hmm?" Hearing this, Lin Yue's eyes turned cold. She stared at Wen Hwa's gloomy face and understood his intention.
It seemed that Wen Hwa wanted the dagger in her hand. At this moment, she had seized the initiative to say that she had stolen something from him, and the surrounding people did not know the truth and would stand on his side.
If he didn't take out the item, Wen Hwa would definitely use it as an excuse to attack him.
As expected, when the surrounding people heard Wen Hwa's words, they all subconsciously thought that Lin Yue had stolen something from him, which was why he was in such a state.
"I was wondering what was going on, but it turns out to be like this. In the Profound Heaven Secret Realm, there are no rules or restrictions, so it is very normal for people to snatch the treasure. If it is snatched, then it will be snatched back. If it can't be snatched back, then it can only mean that they are weak."
said someone indifferently, standing aside to watch the play.
When Wen Hwa heard that person's words, the corner of his mouth revealed a smile as if he had succeeded in his scheme. Lin Yue's face turned ugly at this moment.
"Damn it, this bastard." Lin Yue secretly cursed in his heart, but she did not show it on her face. She had to think of a way to explain this matter clearly, or else Wen Hwa would attack her in public.
There was nowhere for her to run.
