Departure
Lu Zaiye’s expression was no different from before.
But the four individuals across from him exuded an unspoken sense of oppression.
Immediately, Xu Yi realized that something was amiss.
However, she found it strange that Lu Zaiye, who was usually quiet and non-confrontational, would be at odds with these few people.
“Companion…” province Cheng took a deep breath, preparing to patiently explain the situation to her, but Yin Li suddenly interrupted, “Senior Brother, allow me to speak.”
province Cheng was more than happy to let his junior sister take over.
Yin Li smiled at Xu Yi and briefly recounted the events that had just transpired.
After listening, Xu Yi was deeply moved and tiptoed to pat Lu Zaiye’s shoulder.
Little Lu had taken her words to heart.
Members of the Beast Taming Sect:…
Why does this scene seem so peculiar?
Xu Yi apologized on behalf of Lu Zaiye and introduced their own identities.
Of course, she did not mention that she was the ancestral master of the Xuanji Sect, only stating that they were disciples of the Xuanji Sect traveling outside.
She was indeed not a formation cultivator; formation cultivation was just one of her hobbies, and Lu Zaiye had not misspoke.
After learning about Xu Yi and Lu Zaiye’s identities, province Cheng and the other three were slightly surprised but then introduced themselves as disciples of the Beast Taming Sect.
They had come out this time to fulfill a mission assigned by their sect and now that the matter was resolved, they were ready to return to their sect.
Xu Yi pointed to the Teleportation Formation and said, “You’ll have to wait for a while. We are also heading to Yu City. There’s a small issue with the Teleportation Formation, but once I fix it, we can leave together.”
Yin Li raised an eyebrow and casually asked, “We used this Teleportation Formation when we arrived. How come there’s a problem now? Could it be that the new city lord intentionally sabotaged the formation during the attack?”
Yin Li’s words seemed like a casual inquiry, but they concealed her own thoughts.
Xu Yi casually replied, “It wasn’t the city lord who did it. The true culprit is someone else.”
As she spoke, she took out the necessary materials from her storage ring and began making adjustments to the formation array.
Yin Li, recognizing that Xu Yi had already taken action, wisely refrained from asking further questions and watched her movements with admiration.
Xu Yi had a plan in mind and acted decisively, with every movement exuding a unique sense of beauty.
In just half an hour, Xu Yi withdrew her hand with satisfaction, saying, “It’s done.”
province Cheng glanced at it and was somewhat surprised, “It seems like nothing has changed.”
“If nothing has changed, that woule be right.” Xu Yi smiled as she put the items back into her storage ring, but in her heart, she cursed the members of the Zhentian Alliance.
They had discovered her proficiency in formation cultivation and were worried that she would discover their flaws, so they had made subtle and skillful alterations.
The formation itself had not gone wrong, but it now contained a substance called Star Sand, which was derived from meteorites and contained the power of falling stars, capable of disrupting the laws of space.
If Xu Yi hadn’t noticed it and activated the Teleportation Formation directly, they would probably have been sent into a chaotic time and space flow.
Such a venomous plan.
Xu Yi kept this in mind deeply, but her face showed no hint of it.
She and Yin Li and the others were merely acquaintances, so it was better not to say too much.
“So, can we leave now?” province Cheng asked.
“We can.” Xu Yi suddenly remembered something and added, “Wait a moment.”
The group watched as Xu Yi ran to the other Teleportation Formations, waving her hand a few times before collecting something in her hand.
After she had gone through all the Teleportation Formations, she returned.
“We can go now.” Xu Yi’s eyes were filled with an even stronger smile.
Yin Li let out a meaningful chuckle, then stood in the Teleportation Formation together with the members of the Beast Taming Sect.
After Lu Zaiye stepped into the formation, Xu Yi took out a spirit stone, activated the Teleportation Formation, and in the blink of an eye, the figures of the group disappeared.
A while later.
“Damn Su Mei’er! Not only did she take the Star Sand, but she didn’t even leave behind any Spatial Stones!”
The middle-aged man glared at the destroyed Teleportation Formation, fuming with anger as he cursed vehemently.
The people beside him wore expressions of displeasure, their faces filled with anguish.
They had never expected such an outcome.
Instead of eliminating their target, they ended up sacrificing a plethora of valuable materials.
Although the person they had urged earlier had remained silent, his gaze was dark and foreboding.
After pondering for a while, he sent a message through the Communication Disc.
“Mission failed, target: Yu City.” …
“Senior Xu, since you are interested in formations, why not join the Zhentian Alliance? There happens to be a branch of the alliance here in Yu City,” province Cheng enthusiastically spoke to Xu Yi beside him.
Having emerged from the Teleportation Formation and recognizing the familiar surroundings, province Cheng had complete faith in Xu Yi’s abilities.
Combined with Xu Yi’s status as a disciple of the Xuanji Sect, province Cheng felt inclined to establish a connection with him.
Upon learning that Xu Yi did not possess a Formation Nameplate, province Cheng warmly introduced him to the Zhentian Alliance, speaking highly of it.
Xu Yi tugged at the corner of his mouth, responding somewhat coldly, “Thank you for your kind offer, Senior province, but I am merely interested in formations and have no desire to join any other organization.”
Join the Zhentian Alliance?
Xu Yi believed that even if he made no progress in the field of formations in the future, he would never step foot into the Zhentian Alliance.
province Cheng encountered resistance and could only smile without saying a word, harboring some grievances towards Xu Yi and Lu Zaiye in his heart.
As two of the Five Great Sects of the Nine Provinces, the Beast Taming Sect was not inferior to the Xuanji Sect
Why did they adopt such a lofty attitude?
With these thoughts in mind, he began to consider parting ways with them.
Just as he was contemplating how to broach the subject tactfully, Yin Li suddenly extended an invitation to both of them.
“Senior Xu, Senior Lu, I believe neither of you have visited our Beast Taming Sect before. If you have no urgent matters to attend to, why not come and be our guests at the Beast Taming Sect? Let us extend our hospitality.”
A flicker of surprise flashed in province Cheng’s eyes, and once he realized what was happening, he reluctantly followed suit, going against his true feelings.
Xu Yi and Lu Zaiye exchanged a glance, both discerning the refusal in each other’s eyes.
Xu Yi had left the Xuanji Sect to travel and had no intention of becoming a guest at the Beast Taming Sect.
It would be even more awkward if someone from the Beast Taming Sect recognized her.
As for Lu Zaiye, he simply did not want to interact with anyone from the Beast Taming Sect.
Xu Yi could only apologize to Yin Li, saying, “Senior Yin, both of us have pressing matters to attend to. If there is another opportunity in the future, we will definitely come and pay our respects.”
“Ah, what a pity,” Yin Li expressed her disappointment.
She found the way these two individuals interacted quite interesting and genuinely wanted to befriend them.
“Let us exchange contact information then. When you have free time in the future, please remember to reach out to me.”
Yin Li took out a Communication Disc and winked at Xu Yi.
Impressed by Yin Li’s demeanor, Xu Yi promptly left his mark on the Communication Disc and handed his own disc to Yin Li.
After exchanging Communication Discs, Xu Yi and Lu Zaiye escorted them to the Teleportation Formation in Yu City, watching as they departed before turning to wander around the city.
As Yang province was adjacent to the Shen province inhabited by the Yao Clan, most of the cities here were influenced by them.
The materials and treasures sold on the streets were mostly related to demonic beasts.
Xu Yi noticed that some stalls even displayed the corpses of demonic beasts, a rather crude and straightforward approach.
She felt excited .
