Yan Ji had seen many of the same people over the years, but her heart sank at the sight of this figure, or maybe it was because she knew that the person hobbling in front of her was none other than Ning Cheng.
Behind this ragged, hobbling cultivator was a small dog that was also slowly following. The puppy was covered in filth, its fur was very dry and its colour was not even clear, and it could not even walk a bit, still following the person walking in front of it.
“What a loyal beast pet ……,” said Xiang Zhilan with an exclamation as she apparently also saw the man and dog.
“Alas, this man is rich, even a beast pet has a storage ring. It’s just that there are simply too many of these people in this place, and the only way out is ……” Feng Yushan had not finished his sigh, but he found that Yan Ji had already rushed out.
Only then did Xiang Zhilan notice that there was something wrong with Yan Ji’s eyes, and she immediately understood that this man hobbling around was the cultivator that Yan Ji had tried to save, but had failed to do so.
Feng Yushan also saw that Yan Ji and the hobbling cultivator in front of him were related, and he hurriedly called out from behind, “Senior sister Ji, you must not move him.”
Yan Ji paused in her steps, turned back eagerly and asked, “Why?”
Feng Yushan became more and more convinced that his guess was correct and hurriedly said, “This person should be completely trapped in the great formation we are in, he may still be subconsciously pushing the formation, if you move him now, there is only one possibility, to make him completely lost and never wake up again.”
“What then?” Yan Ji was instantly flustered.
Xiang Zhilan walked up and asked softly, “Senior sister Ji, this cultivator is the one you mentioned? He’s disguised?”
Yan Ji looked at Ning Cheng, who was still walking, forced herself to be quiet, nodded and said, “Yes, Senior Sister Lan, he is that person. Senior Sister, do you have a solution? If we continue to let him walk like this, we are bound to end up at the point of running out of oil.”
Xiang Zhi Lan was silent for a while before she said, “I’ve seen this scenario before, where someone takes someone they know well away by force, only to have them fall into disorientation instead, unable to wake up again. Senior Brother Yushan is right. I do have a way ……”
“Senior Sister Lan, hurry up and say it.” Xiang Zhi Lan asked impatiently.
“Set up a trapped formation in front of him, so that he will automatically enter this this trapped formation. Then he will sense this trapped formation and start to break it. Once this trapped formation is broken by him, he will think he has broken the formation. While he breaks this trapped formation, you drink to wake him up, or you can make him come to his senses. This is just my own idea, I haven’t tried it, and I don’t know if it will work.” Xiang Zhilan replied.
Yan Ji immediately said, “Then I will go and set up this trapped formation.”
Zhi Lan pulled Yan Ji back, “Sister Ji, let me set up the trap formation, it can’t be too bad. I’ve been trapped in here for over a hundred years, and although I won’t be the same as the rest, I’ve studied some formations.”
Hearing this, Feng Yushan hurriedly said, “This solution is fine, why don’t I come and set up the formation. I am a rank four formation master, that should be enough.”
Yan Ji hurriedly said, “Thank you, Senior Brother Yushan, it would be better to let Senior Sister Lan set it up. I’m afraid that the formation is too complicated for Senior Brother Cheng to break.”
Yan Ji said this with a complete woman’s intuition. She pulled back her veil just to let Xiang Zhi Lan see what she looked like, so that if Senior Sister Lan could get out later and return to Le Continent, she could also draw out her looks. It was just that she did not expect Feng Yushan to suddenly come over and see her appearance as well.
After Feng Yushan saw her appearance, she immediately felt that desire, an intuition that could not be expressed, a completely innate one. And before that Ning Cheng had also seen her looks, but there was some appreciation in Ning Cheng’s eyes, but not that naked desire to possess.
Feng Yushan hurriedly laughed, “Yes, that’s right, I’ll just help out on the side.”
Yan Ji said with a straight face, “Senior Brother Yushan, we’d better let Senior Sister Lan set up alone, the two of us will watch from the side, I’m afraid that if there are too many people, it will affect him instead.”
“That’s right.” Feng Yushan stopped talking, he could tell that Yan Ji was very concerned about the pimply-faced man in front of him. But he didn’t take it to heart, in this place, he, Feng Yushan, was the sky. A man who was lost in his mind could not stand up to him?
Xiang Zhilan had deliberately set up a trap formation quickly a few hundred metres in front of Ning Cheng, but when Ning Cheng walked in front of that trap formation, he unexpectedly turned a corner automatically and went around in front of the trap formation, then continued on his way.
“What’s going on?” Xiang Zhilan was also puzzled as she looked at Ning Cheng’s distant back. It was reasonable to say that the cultivators caught in this formation deduction were very confused, how could they possibly bypass her trapped formation?
However, Yan Ji’s eyes lit up, Ning Cheng was able to bypass Senior Sister Lan’s trapped formation, which meant that he was different from others and was not the kind of person who was muddled. She hurriedly said, ”Senior Sister Lan, I know what to do. I will keep setting up some trap formations in front of him, and one day he will enter the trap formation.”
Yan Ji said this, but this was definitely not what she meant. What she was thinking was that since Ning Cheng could bypass the trapped formation, it meant that Ning Cheng still had a mind of his own. She kept setting up the trapped formation and Ning Cheng kept bypassing it, so perhaps he had changed his mind back completely and given up on the trapped formation in front of him.
Feng Yushan frowned for a moment as he likewise thought of this matter. This cultivator seemed a little different from the rest of the cultivators who had pushed the formation, and should not be completely lost. Yan Ji’s method might really be able to awaken the cultivator who had set up the formation in front of him. However, he quickly stopped worrying, a cultivator at the fifth level of Xuan Liquid was just a cultivator, even if he was awakened, he could easily exterminate it.
Xiang Zhilan understood at the same time, she knew what Yan Ji really wanted to do and immediately said with surprise, “Senior sister Ji, this friend of yours may have come in for a short time and is not completely lost yet, your method is probably feasible.”
Seeing that her thoughts were known by Senior Sister Lan, Yan Ji said awkwardly, “Senior Sister Lan, I’ll just follow alone, you and Senior Brother Yushan should go back first.”
“No, I’ll follow you. It’s better for two people to be together, and there’s nothing for me to do back there. Besides, I can talk with you, I won’t be so lonely.” Xiang Zhilan said without hesitation.
Seeing this, Feng Yushan had no choice but to say, “Then I’ll go back first, I’ll come back to see you guys after a while, if you need any help, just contact me with the communication beads.”
After Feng Yushan left, Yan Ji suddenly took out a spirit fruit and handed it to Grey Tootoo who was following Ning Cheng and said, “Here, it’s for you to eat.”
Grey Tootoo’s pills had long been low and it had to save, sometimes it could only take one pill for several days, and it did not know when it would run out of pills. Now that Yan Ji took out a spirit fruit and gave it to him, it immediately babbled a few times, and its little paws directly grabbed the spirit fruit out of Yan Ji’s hand.
However, after grabbing the spirit fruit away, Grey Toot did not eat it, but instead put it away in its own storage ring, as it seemed to know that everything it ate was precious to it.
“What a smart beast pet, it probably couldn’t spare it to eat it.” Xiang Zhilan said with a sigh.
Yan Ji took out a dozen more spirit fruits and handed them to Grey Toot, who swallowed one in one bite this time, before putting the rest away again.
After swallowing one spirit fruit, Grey Tootoo’s fur obviously changed from dry to more hydrated.
“This spirit beast should have lacked something containing moisture for a long time for its fur to be so dry.” Xiang Zhilan spoke again.
What surprised the two even more was that Grey Dudu had actually grabbed out an elixir and handed it to Yan Ji, clearly not wanting to take a benefit from someone for nothing.
“What a principled and spiritual beast pet.” Yan Ji became more and more surprised as she took the elixir, hating in her heart that she could not take the grey doodad for herself.
Seeing Yan Ji accepting her elixir, Grey Dududu then stepped up a few steps to follow Ning Cheng who was far away.
“Huh, it’s actually a special grade Restoration of Truth Pill? This is the first time I have seen a pill of this quality, this is definitely a first-class pill among first-class pills ……” said Xiang Zhilan as she stared in awe at the pill in Yan Ji’s hand.
The pills in Yan Ji’s hand were of extremely high quality, but what kind of person would be required to make such a pill? She was also a little confused.
“Senior sister Ji, this friend of yours is somewhat uncomplicated.” Xiang Zhilan said as she stared at Ning Cheng’s back, it would be strange if a person who could give an extraordinarily high quality elixir to his beast pet could be simple.
Yan Ji took out a jade bottle and put the pills away in it before saying, “Senior Sister Lan, what do you think of Senior Brother Yushan as a person?”
“Senior Brother Yushan? He’s pretty good, all the cultivators in our area have been benefited by him. He’s an alchemist and has a spiritual medicine garden. And whenever there are fresh spirit fruits, he will bring them out for everyone to share.” Xiang Zhilan said offhandedly.
Yan Ji was silent for a while before saying, “Senior Sister Lan, apart from you and I, there are eight female cultivators there, and I found that Senior Brother Yushan and those eight female cultivators are all somewhat incestuous and ……”
Xiang Zhi Lan sighed and said, “You are trying to say why those eight female cultivators’ daoist couples don’t say anything right? In fact, this is quite normal, in this place can never get out, everyone is just looking for some psychological solace. Their daoist couples also know that everyone is also temporarily grouped together, there is no need to care about such things.”
Yan Ji nodded and said, “Senior Sister Lan, I always feel that Senior Brother Yushan is a bit odd, no matter what Senior Brother Cheng does, I won’t go back. Senior Sister Lan, you ……”
Xiang Zhi Lan nodded, “Senior sister Ji, I understand what you mean, I offer to join you, that is, I do not intend to go back. Although there are more people there, that kind of life is really not what I want. In the past, I wouldn’t have even dared to think about it, but the two of us would have a companion anyway, so we wouldn’t be too lonely alone. Besides, that little dog is really cute too.”
