Chapter 1954 Chu Xuyuan's Difficulty
The island where the Feiyunzhou ferry is located is an ancient city, with a mix of cultivators from all walks of life and various factions.
Since there are no laws restricting the Chaos Immortal Sea, and there are no rules prohibiting fighting in the Immortal Cultivation City, people can be seen fighting everywhere in the city, and it is not uncommon to even kill people in the street.
At this time, a figure appeared at a corner of the street. This person was neither fat nor thin, with a medium build and a slightly gloomy appearance.
If there were familiar people here, they would recognize at a glance that this person was the disciple of the Lingxian Mansion who was assigned by the middle-aged cultivator at the ferry just now.
After he appeared, he looked around with a slightly vigilant look, and then quickly disappeared into a tower next to him.
This person didn't know that shortly after he entered the tower, another figure appeared. The latter was dressed in black clothes and had a deep aura. It was Ye Chunyang.
He looked at the tower in front of him and also entered it in a flash.
Just now at the ferry, he found that the middle-aged cultivator was a little abnormal, especially when he mentioned Chu Xuyuan, the other party's words were evasive, and there was obviously something else going on, so he left his clone invisible at the ferry to observe.
Sure enough, after he deliberately left, the middle-aged cultivator immediately sent someone out.
If Ye Chunyang guessed correctly, this might be related to Chu Xuyuan.
The tower looked very ordinary, and there was nothing unusual, but as Ye Chunyang followed the Lingxian Mansion into it, he found that there was a long and narrow passage hidden in the tower. The surrounding light was very dim. If it were not for the torches on the wall, the sight would never be clear.
Ye Chunyang hid his figure and followed the disciple of the Lingxian Mansion. After entering the dark passage, he saw that his feet followed some strange steps. According to Ye Chunyang's experience, there was probably a magic array hidden in it, and one wrong step would trigger it.
At this moment, Ye Chunyang also followed the steps of the disciple.
What surprised Ye Chunyang was that this passage actually went down along the tower, and seemed to lead to a basement.
Not long after, the Lingxianfu disciple in front stopped, and a stone door appeared in front of him. After standing at the door for a while, he took out a talisman from his arms, chanted a complicated spell, and then pasted the talisman on the door.
Then the talisman flashed, and strange runes flew out, surrounding the stone door, and then opened with a loud buzzing sound.
The Lingxianfu disciple looked around with a vigilant look, and walked into the stone door after making sure that no one was following.
Ye Chunyang frowned at the series of actions of the Lingxianfu, but he did not hesitate, and immediately restrained his breath and followed.
Behind the stone door was a spacious hall. After Ye Chunyang came in, he saw the Lingxianfu disciple kneeling on the ground, and in front of him was a man in black. The Lingxianfu disciple seemed to be reporting something to him.
"You just said someone was looking for Chu Xuyuan?"
The man in black turned around and asked lightly.
Ye Chunyang looked at the man in black. He was wearing a mask and could not tell his identity, but he was actually a master in the early stage of returning to the void.
"It is true, envoy Shang." The disciple of Lingxian Mansion knelt respectfully in front of the man in black and nodded in reply.
"Who is the other party?" the man in black asked again.
"The identity of that person is not clear, but Commander Jin said that he is very likely to be a powerful person returning to the void. Maybe he was sent by the higher-ups to find Elder Chu." The disciple of Lingxian Mansion said.
"Someone sent by the higher-ups?" The man in black seemed a little surprised, and his voice became a little more solemn.
But then he shook his head and sneered, "The people above are not so stupid. If they really sent someone to find Chu Xuyuan, they would not go to the ferry to ask blatantly. Most of them are just some foreign cultivators."
After hearing this, the disciple of Lingxian Mansion did not dare to speculate and had to keep silent and kneel there.
The man in black turned around and walked back and forth with his back to him, as if he was thinking about something. After a moment, he slowly said, "Are you sure that the person who is looking for Chu Xuyuan is a returning cultivator?"
"Commander Jin feels the power of the void on him, there is no mistake." The disciple of Lingxian Mansion said affirmatively.
The man in black was silent for a moment.
Then, he stepped forward and muttered to himself, "No matter who that person is and what his relationship with Chu Xuyuan is, for the sake of caution, we should transfer Chu Xuyuan to other places as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the old guy is rescued by someone, wouldn't it be a waste of my hard work for ten years?"
The disciple of Lingxian Mansion nodded in agreement, and asked with some doubts, "Why didn't the envoy kill Chu Xuyuan directly? Instead, he kept him?"
"Huh, what do you know?" The man in black said coldly, "That old guy can't die now, I still want Use him to help me do some things. You just need to guard the ferry and collect information for me. Don't ask about other things! "
Feeling the coldness of the man in black, the disciple of Lingxian Mansion shuddered and bowed quickly, saying, "Yes, disciple understands!"
The man in black glanced at the disciple of Lingxian Mansion and said, "Go back and tell Jin Kui to keep an eye on that person's whereabouts. It would be best if he could find out his identity. If there is any result, let me know."
"Yes!"
The disciple of Lingxian Mansion bowed and said yes, and then left the place quickly.
Ye Chunyang was invisible in this hall, frowning in his heart. From what you two said just now, Chu Xuyuan was actually locked up?
No wonder that when he asked before, the commander named Jin seemed polite on the surface, but in fact his words were flashy, and he was obviously hiding something from him.
After looking at the departing Lingxian Mansion disciple, Ye Chunyang hesitated for a moment, stayed where he was, and then looked at the man in black.
Although their cultivation levels were similar, Ye Chunyang used the hidden skills of the Origin Heavenly Scripture, so the other party could not detect his aura at all.
It's not that he wants to meddle in other people's business, but now he needs to rely on the power of the Lingxian Mansion to leave the Chaotic Immortal Sea. He must find Chu Xuyuan to get him to provide him with an exit.
But in fact, he has another way to leave Chaotic Immortal Sea, which is to use the guest token Xiao Qingge gave him to go out through the exit of Tianjue Palace. However, Ye Chunyang doesn't want to be exposed to Tianjue Palace too quickly, so he should first Through Chu Xuyuan's relationship, it was done well.
But the scene before him was really beyond his expectation.
At this moment, the masked "Shang Envoy" in the hall turned around and walked away from the passage on the other side of the hall. Ye Chunyang saw this and quickly followed him.
Just like the passage when he came in, it was surrounded by magic circle restrictions. "Shang Envoy" looked very cautious, pausing for a moment every step he took before continuing to walk forward.
When he paused, Ye Chunyang could clearly feel that the other party was using his spiritual thoughts to explore the surroundings. Fortunately, in terms of controlling his spiritual thoughts, Ye Chunyang was far superior to him, otherwise he would not have been discovered.
After finally exiting the passage, "Shang Envoy" made sure that there was nothing unusual around him, then he retracted the spiritual energy he released, and then walked down a staircase with his hands behind his back.
Ye Chunyang was a little surprised. This place actually continued to lead to the lower level. Obviously, this tower seemed to be built upwards, but in fact it contained a mystery. Its true structure was to extend downwards to form an underground tower.
It can be seen that this should be a secret stronghold.
However, Ye Chunyang didn't bother to speculate on this and continued to walk down behind "Shang Shishi".
After about half a cup of tea, the space in front suddenly became brighter. Ye Chunyang clearly saw that in front of "Shang Shishi" was a dungeon, surrounded by powerful forbidden fluctuations, and a person was locked inside.
Ye Chunyang's eyes narrowed. The man in the cell was an old man in gray clothes. He looked a little thin, but he could still recognize him as Chu Xuyuan at a glance.
At this time, Chu Xuyuan in the prison also sensed the person coming, and raised his head to look at "Shang Shizhi", but after examining him for a moment, he looked away lightly, with a look of disdain.
"Old guy, how are you living here?" Shang Shishi didn't care about Chu Xuyuan's cold attitude, but spoke calmly.
"You just came here because you want to get the command of the thirty-one spiritual immortal mansions in the Human Emperor Realm, but do you think I will give it to you?" Chu Xuyuan didn't even look at the envoy Shang, and walked towards him with a leisurely expression. He leaned against the wall behind him, then half-squinted his eyes and ignored him.
Messenger Shang shook his head and said, "I'm not asking you for the Thirty-One Lingxian Mansion Palm Orders today, I just want to change your place."
Chu Xuyuan's expression changed when he heard this. He glanced at Shang Shishi with a frown, then leaned back and said lazily: "There's no need to change. I'm staying here very well. If you're afraid of me escaping, , you can just kill me."
"If I want to kill you, I'm afraid you won't survive now." Messenger Shang sneered lightly and said: "Not only will I not kill you, but I will let you live well. Let you see with your own eyes how I sit. The person who ascends to the position of Chief Helmsman."
Chu Xuyuan rolled his eyes and didn't bother to answer at all.
Messenger Shang continued: "Forget it, I'm not afraid to tell you now that a monk who has returned to the void is coming to the ferry to look for you today. For safety reasons, I'm afraid you have to come with me."
Before Chu Xuyuan could speak, Shang Shishi continued with a sneer: "What's more, it's not up to you whether to leave or not."
"Someone is looking for me?" Chu Xuyuan frowned slightly, "Who is that person? Xiao Qingge?"
Xiao Qingge had always been on good terms with him, and this was the only person who might come to him.
"Hehe, you are thinking too much. According to reports from my disciples, that person is not Xiao Qingge. Besides, no one knows about you yet."
Messenger Shang said with a sneer, and then he didn't intend to delay any longer. He slapped a few restraining talismans on Chu Xuyuan, opened the dungeon and walked in.
At this moment, he suddenly sensed something, his eyes suddenly froze, he turned his head and shouted somewhere: "Who is it?"
