Ye Qingzi was standing next to Chu Mu, and she also noticed that Chu Mu's eyes became serious, showing a bit of surprise, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
"I guess this group of people have been here before." Chu Mu said to Ye Qingzi with his soul thoughts.
"They have been here?" Ye Qingzi showed some doubts, not understanding why Chu Mu made such an inference.
"Let's continue walking with Zeng Linshan. If there is still no soul pet appearing ahead, then this guess should be close to ten." Chu Mu said.
Ye Qingzi also quickly understood what Chu Mu meant, and nodded lightly.
"What's wrong with you guys, you're walking so slowly, hurry up, we can finish the task early so we can go back sooner." Zeng Linshan turned his head and saw Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi walking slowly, but said with a grin.
Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi also quickened their pace according to Zeng Linshan's wishes.
…
Sure enough, as Chu Mu guessed, as the three of them got closer, the frequency of soul pets appearing became less and less, and there were even several roads where there was no soul pet, but there were obvious signs of fighting.
"It's really strange. Could it be that someone else got there first?" Zeng Linshan, who was walking in front, seemed to have noticed this situation, showing doubts.
"Your Element Sect should take measures to keep this kind of news secret?" Chu Mu said.
"Of course there is, but it is also possible that some unruly people know about it. It will be troublesome if others get ahead of them." Zeng Linshan said.
The corners of Chu Mu's lips twitched, as if he was more sure of his guess, but he just watched Zeng Linshan's performance with an indifferent look.
He didn't meet any soul pets during the journey, and the other side of the mountain that Zeng Linshan said was still showing a somewhat deserted side, and Zeng Linshan also looked annoyed at being the first to climb along the way.
Both Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi had already noticed that Zeng Linshan was acting. As for why this guy brought the two of them here, Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi didn't know very well for the time being.
At first, Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi considered whether there would be people from the Elemental Sect ambush here on the other side of the mountain, targeting the two of them.
But I feel that this possibility is not very big. After all, it is absolutely accidental that Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi will appear. It is impossible for Zhang Qin and Qing Li to consider this point, and it is impossible to arrange people to wait for Chu Mu on the other side of the mountain in advance. He Ye Qingzi throws himself into the trap, but in fact there is no one lying in ambush on the other side of the mountain...
"Now there should be two possibilities. The first one is that someone has really reached the top of the mountain, and they are dealing with the emperor of the Sky Crystal Mountain."
"The second possibility is that they got rid of all the soul pets in the cave in the middle of the mountain in advance, and planned to get something that they didn't want others to know. After finding out that we two outsiders appeared, they deliberately asked Zeng Linshan to dismiss us. Maybe their real purpose He is not the emperor of Tianjing Peak, Yu Lang and Feng Ya should not know about this."
Ye Qingzi used her soul thoughts to tell Chu Mu her analysis.
Both Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi felt that the first possibility was relatively small, because judging from Zeng Linshan's behavior, this guy was practicing to a large extent.
In the cave before, this guy knew it was dangerous, but he kept walking in front, as if he already knew that there would be no danger if there was no soul pet here...
"There is another possibility." Chu Mu glanced at Zeng Linshan who was resting beside him, and said slowly.
"What?" Ye Qingzi only thought of two possibilities, and didn't consider the third one.
Chu Mu shook his head and said, "Maybe I can't be sure, or maybe I just guessed wrong."
Seeing that Chu Mu didn't say anything, Ye Qingzi didn't ask, and sat quietly beside Chu Mu, staring at the continuous mountain peaks.
…
Under the mountain peak, after the six of them waited for a while, they also began to drive their soul pets up the mountain.
"Yu Lang, I haven't seen your soul pet for a long time, so it must be stronger now?" Qing Li asked.
"It's okay, it's just increased according to the growth rate of most soul pets of the same level." Yu Ling replied with a smile.
"I don't believe this anymore. Presumably your monarch has already reached the seventh stage, and has been strengthened by many spiritual objects?" Qing Li continued to ask.
Yu Lang still maintains a polite smile, although his soul pet will show its full strength in the battle after a while, but Yu Lang doesn't seem to be the kind of person who likes to show off, so he didn't directly reveal it.
"These two are pretty good. The road is so clean that we almost don't need to take action." Zhang Qin walked in the front and said with a smile.
"By the way, which young master's subordinate is that Chu Mu, brother Yu Lang himself doesn't know?" Qing Li continued to ask.
"I really don't know about this. The people in our Soul Hall don't really like publicity. Brother Chu Mu should have the same personality, so I didn't ask specifically." Yu Lang replied.
"Oh, oh." Qing Li nodded, looking thoughtful.
Soon the group came to the place where Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi felt the strangeness of the big cave. The width of this cave was about 100 meters and the height was more than 30 meters. Rocks of different shapes were distributed in the cave. Many of them still have traces of battles...
"They should be fighting not far ahead." Qing Li glanced at the other side of the cave when he walked into the cave, but he deliberately changed his soul pet, as if he wanted to help in the battle.
"It's better for the two of you to keep your fighting strength to deal with that monarch. There is no need to waste your soul power and soul pet's fighting power on the way." Seeing that Yu Ling and Feng Ya were also planning to change their fighting soul pet, Zhang Qin stopped him with a smile.
While speaking, the other two put away their mounts, and replaced their beast and element soul pets.
Yu Lang glanced across the soul pet lineup of these four, but suddenly frowned, and purposely poked his soul forward, wondering if Chu Mu and the other three were fighting right ahead.
After withdrawing the soul thoughts, Yu Lang immediately discovered that the six people from the Element Gate were summoning their second soul pet, and Yu Lang's face immediately changed!
"Fengya, hurry up, summon the pet!" Yu Lang's face was flushed with anger, and he shouted at Fengya beside him.
Feng Ya was stunned for a moment, before she fully understood what was going on, she suddenly felt that the soul pet replaced by the four members of the Element Gate showed a murderous look, staring at herself firmly!
Feng Ya is not the kind of ignorant woman, she immediately understood what was going on, and immediately started to chant the spell!
moon robe!
A ray of moonlight fell on Fengya's body, and Fengya's body was immediately wrapped in a silver moonlight robe. This robe integrated the seventh-level soul armor on her body, and immediately raised its own defense to eighth-level!
"Shua!"
Almost when Fengya finished her defense, Zhang Qin's Ziyuan Thunder Demon's terrifying Thunder Claw suddenly tore from her back, tearing a long bloodstain on Fengya's defense fiercely!
Feng Ya groaned in pain, bit her bright red lips and recited a spell, and began to summon her soul pet!
Yu Lang's reaction was much faster than Feng Ya's. He also put an eighth-level defense on himself first, and summoned his main pet—the eighth-stage Thunderbolt Sword-Winged Lion before being attacked!
Both Yu Lang and Feng Ya reacted, but the four from the Elemental Sect were clearly prepared. Their rock-type soul pet immediately blocked the escape route, completely denying the two of them a chance to escape.
"Lei, protect Fengya!" After Yu Lang summoned his main pet, he let it protect Fengya immediately, and he was completely exposed to the claws and blades of two extremely ferocious wolves!
"Roar!" The Thunder Sword Winged Lion let out a roar, a pair of sword wings suddenly opened, and fiercely pounced on the Ziyuan Thunder Demon, and also used the Thunder Claw skill to throw the Ziyuan Thunder Demon more than ten meters away. .
After Ziyuan Thunder Demon's crisis was resolved, Fengya took a breather, immediately recited the double spell, and immediately summoned her two main pets.
Qingli already had a cruel smile on his face. He had the advantage of having summoned his soul pet in advance. The commander-level eighth-stage Vajra Fierce Monster and the eighth-stage warrior-level storm elf recited spells at the same time!
"It's useless, you will be buried here today!" Qing Li smiled indifferently when he saw that Yu Lang was trying his best to protect Feng Ya.
Qingli has three main pets, and the one with the strongest combat power is the eighth-stage Vajra Fierce Monster. As long as it gets close to the enemy, its burst of power is even more terrifying. Although Yu Lang has summoned his main pet, he has not fought at all. Deployed, he is immediately at a disadvantage in the case of a sneak attack.
"Boom!"
Vajra Fierce Demon's fist strength reached level seven, and the fist like a giant rock fell down, causing the entire cave to tremble violently!
Yu Lang summoned his main pet, but he didn't have time to use his soul skills to protect himself. The Diamond Crack skill came down and immediately sent him flying. His body smashed countless stalactites and was crushed hard. Under the pile of rocks.
But Yu Lang just summoned an insect-type monarch soul pet covered with golden armor, but was immediately entangled by two other soul pets.
"If you don't struggle, it will make your death easier." Qing Li smiled coldly, and summoned the fourth soul pet—Winged Tiger, and threw it fiercely in front of Yu Lang, claw blade Bury it into Yu Lang's shoulders, and press it hard against the stalactite.
"Qing Li, we've known each other for so many years, yet you plot against me, hum, kill me, you think you can survive!" Yu Ling's body was already covered in blood.
If there is no surprise attack, Yu Lang has absolute confidence that he can defeat these people, but he never expected that Qing Li, who has already had some friendship, would kill him!
"Haha, don't worry, our young master has already arranged for your death, you can just die with peace of mind!" Qing Li laughed loudly.
