After Chu Liuyue and his party briefly repaired on the spot, they set foot on the road to continue moving forward.
The sapphire token had almost no use, so it was put away by Elder Huafeng.
Other than that, they have no other way to contact anyone else in the academy. So, after discussion, they finally decided to head to the hinterland of the ancient northern territory!
The most likely place for Tianfang Holy Cauldron to appear is there. If you walk there, even if you can't find people from the academy, you can still meet people from other aristocratic families and sects.
Maybe we can find out from them what happened.
After the previous incident, several people were on alert, fearing that the same thing would happen again.
With their current strength, if it comes a few more times, they may really be unable to bear it.
Fortunately, everything seemed to become calm and stable after that.
After walking a long distance, Chu Liuyue took a look at the sky.
Lead-gray clouds piled up thickly, and the sky and the earth were dark.
But there was no sign of darkness yet.
It is said that the Northern Territory has a special location, and after thousands of years of evolution, the climate is extremely different from other places.
The days here are extremely long and the nights only last for two hours.
It's cold during the day and even colder at night.
It is indeed difficult for ordinary people to stay in such a bitter and cold place.
A few people were walking when they suddenly heard the faint voice of someone speaking in front of them.
But because of the distance, I couldn't hear clearly what was said.
Looking up, you can vaguely see a group of people marching forward against the wind and snow in a white snowfield.
Their direction was the same as that of Chu Liuyue and others, but perhaps because they were slower, they were overtaken by Chu Liuyue and others.
"Who is that?"
An elder looked hard.
"Looking at his clothes, he doesn't look like an ordinary person. He should be from a first-class family, right?"
Chu Liuyue also followed this line of sight and looked over.
A rough estimate was that there were about a dozen people, including old men and young men and women.
At this time, those people in front seemed to have noticed something and looked back.
"Who is coming!?"
One of the old men was the first to speak out cautiously.
Elder Huafeng was so angry that he dropped into his dantian:
"Huafeng of Lingxiao Academy is here!"
The deep and powerful voice spread far away!
In the world of Shenxu, the name of Lingxiao Academy is very resounding.
Except for a few who have old grudges with them, most of the other first-class aristocratic sects have to sell some face.
That's why Elder Hua Feng dared to report his net worth so directly and boldly.
Sure enough, after hearing his words, the other party's attitude immediately changed.
"Elder Huafeng!?"
The other party responded with a tone that seemed quite surprising.
Elder Hua Feng was about to ask them about their identities when he suddenly heard one of the young women walking towards them.
As she walked, she shouted happily:
"Elder Huafeng, it turns out it's you!"
Elder Hua Feng and others were still a little confused at first, but as the woman approached and saw her face clearly, they suddenly became happy.
"Shi Ruier?"
Shi Ruier was panting as she left, her pretty little face flushed slightly.
"It's a student! I've met some elders!"
After saying that, Shi Ruier also saluted politely to Hua Feng and the others.
Finally, she noticed that there was Chu Liuyue at the end, and was stunned for a moment.
But she quickly reacted and asked with some uncertainty:
"Are you Junior Brother Chu Yue?"
When Chu Liuyue heard the elder calling her name, she already remembered this person's identity.
Shi Ruier, the second young lady of Feixing Sect.
When the academy wanted to recruit people to Cangyu Abyss, Shi Ruier was among them.
Although the two did not know each other, they did meet several times.
Chu Liuyue smiled and said hello.
"I've met Senior Sister Shi Ruier."
Shi Ruier looked at her curiously, but her eyes were very restrained and meant no offense.
"I heard that Senior Brother Rong Xiu is taking care of you personally now?"
Chu Liuyue was a little surprised that she was the first to ask this question, but she nodded honestly.
"It is Chu Yue's good fortune to have Senior Brother Rong Xiu care so much."
"Pfft."
Shi Ruier couldn't help but cover her lips and smile.
"He is not someone who is willing to teach anyone. If you can be valued so much by him, you certainly have your own abilities. Besides, I also saw your battle with Jin Lei that day. You don't have to be too modest."
As she said that, she looked around and asked with some surprise:
"Hey, why didn't Rong Xiu and the others come with you, elders?"
Elder Hua Feng shook his head.
"Rong Xiu has something to do, so he didn't come with him this time."
"I see."
A flash of surprise flashed in Shi Ruier's eyes.
According to her understanding of Rong Xiu, he would definitely come for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Unexpectedly, he didn't come this time.
"Where are the other elders? Did you leave separately?"
Shi Ruier asked curiously.
The expressions of Elder Huafeng and others changed slightly.
Shi Ruier immediately noticed something keenly, and the smile on her face froze for a moment.
"We're looking for them too."
Elder Hua Feng thought for a while and chose to tell the truth.
Lingxiao Academy and Feixing Sect have always been in contact and have a good relationship with each other.
Tell Shi Ruier, maybe they can help.
"W-what does this mean?"
Although she had guessed that the situation might be bad, Shi Ruier still didn't expect that Elder Huafeng would say such words.
Afterwards, Elder Huafeng explained the matter to her simply.
Shi Ruier's expression gradually became serious.
"So now we don't know where they are, so we can only look for them slowly."
Shi Ruier frowned.
"We have been here for about two days, but we have never seen Elder Boyan or the others."
Elder Hua Feng and others had actually thought of this outcome, but they still couldn't hide their disappointment when they heard this.
"Elder Hua Feng, if that's the case, why don't we act together and look for him on the road? One more person always means more strength, right?"
After hearing Shi Ruier's suggestion, the elders naturally had nothing to refuse.
They are now weak and have no hope of finding so many people in the academy on their own.
Of course, the remaining people in Feixing Sect also agreed.
After all, Shi Ruier is the one with the highest status among them, and the Feixing Sect and Lingxiao Academy do have a good relationship. Due to various considerations, this help is appropriate.
After a brief discussion, the group of people began to move forward again.
Chu Liuyue happened to be walking behind and to the right of Shi Ruier.
She thought for a while and asked:
"Senior Sister Shi Ruier, I wonder if you have seen the Tianfang Holy Cauldron appear in the past two days?"
Shi Ruier shook her head:
"No. We haven't met anyone during this time."
Chu Liuyue was a little disappointed in her heart, but she still thanked her politely.
Shi Ruier stared at her for a while, then suddenly smiled and said:
"Chu Yue, it's rare for Rong Xiu to be so kind to someone. The last one was-"
I originally wanted to do the ninth update today, but my aunt is here, and I may have to sit from morning to night during this period, and my back hurts so much that I can’t sit still, so that’s all for now!
It will be updated at 12 noon tomorrow and the normal five updates will begin. Because I have to go out in two days, the update may not be stable for the time being.
After a few days of adjustment, I will try my best to save more updates!
