"Alright, let’s go up and take a look..."
Immediately, the two of them quickly chased in the direction where Lu Ye had left earlier.
On the other side...
Lu Ye had just turned that street and hadn’t walked far when he suddenly felt... there were people intentionally following behind him.
His spiritual sense probed behind him, and it turned out to be the two leftover disciples from the Cyan Thunder Sect he had encountered before.
"Why are they following me? Did they recognize me and want to take revenge for the dissolution of the Cyan Thunder Sect?"
The thought flashed by, and Lu Ye shook his head; that was too unrealistic.
Acting as if he hadn’t noticed them, Lu Ye kept walking forward.
A moment later, Lu Ye left the city and discovered that the two were still following him.
After thinking for a moment, Lu Ye quickened his pace.
When the two chased out of the city, they swept their gaze outside and found that he had suddenly disappeared.
"Hey, where did he go? How did he walk so fast? Could it be that he discovered us?" Zeng Shanshan looked at the disappearance of the person outside the city and was somewhat puzzled.
Yet Yuan Qiang felt something was amiss, like the person intentionally vanished suddenly; had they realized they were being tracked?
Thinking about it, Yuan Qiang thought it was not impossible.
"Sister, maybe he noticed our tracking, how about we stop chasing?" Yuan Qiang suggested.
Zeng Shanshan shook her head and said, "We’re already outside the city, let’s continue... he seems to be right ahead!"
Just a moment ago, Zeng Shanshan saw a figure flash by ahead, and her eyes brightened instantly.
Moments later, the two reached a wooded area a few miles outside the city.
At this time, there was a figure standing in the woods, calmly looking at them.
"Are you looking for me?"
Seeing this person actually waiting for them, Zeng Shanshan and Yuan Qiang were startled, feeling an embarrassing sense of being caught.
However, before the sense of embarrassment could dissipate, the next second Zeng Shanshan managed to clearly see the appearance of the person in front of them, and she was stunned.
"Wh... why is it you?!"
Zeng Shanshan recognized the young man in front of her; wasn’t this... Chen Beixuan she had seen countless times in the Memory Stone?!
But her familiarity with Chen Beixuan’s appearance was understandable given how many times she had watched the Memory Stone.
Yet feeling familiar with his back...
Was there an issue somewhere?
As for Yuan Qiang, his legs directly went soft.
Chen Beixuan... isn’t he the main person who forced the Sect Leader to dissolve Cyan Thunder Sect?!
Finished! Directly chased right in front of this God of Slaughter, what’s this called—handing oneself over on a platter?
The next moment, fear also surged within Zeng Shanshan.
Although she hadn’t seen Lu Ye himself before, she was able to express grievances against the Wang Family, claiming Chen Beixuan bullied people too much, and other such grievances, but seeing the person in front of her in reality...
She was indeed scared.
Because, the person in front of her... was the renowned top prodigy across the entire continent!
In the Northern Territory, in Xuanzhou... he was like a deity!
This was not Zeng Shanshan exaggerating, it was the truth.
It should be known that nowadays, Chen Beixuan already possessed the capability to easily support a top sect of a province just by saying the words!
As long as he declared to protect a sect, that sect’s rise would be an easy feat.
"I don’t have time to settle with you over past affairs, but if I hear about you saying things you shouldn’t behind my back in the future..."
Yuan Qiang hurriedly said, "Greetings Elder Chen, my sister and I have no sect now, and will no longer speak irresponsibly!"
Zeng Shanshan’s lips moved slightly, merely staring blankly at Lu Ye, unable to utter a complete sentence.
After glancing at the two, Lu Ye said nothing more, turned, and left.
Once again looking at Lu Ye’s departing back, that familiar feeling surged again; in an instant, Zeng Shanshan was like struck by insight, matching a figure in her mind to this back...
That was, several years ago, at the Wang Family’s banquet, she had encountered the Jiang Family’s son-in-law from Cloud Leaf City...
The reason she remembered such a person was due to Lu Ye’s background as an Inner Sect Disciple from the Red Cloud Sect, yet was sent to marry into an Innate Clan.
Because of this, Zeng Shanshan laughed for several days.
After returning, she even remarked that Lu Ye indeed looked handsome, with the potential to be a pretty boy, no wonder he was sent for marriage.
"Lu Ye?!"
In an instant, the figure that had popped into her mind made Zeng Shanshan involuntarily call out.
"Sister, don’t shout, this is Elder Beixuan!" Yuan Qiang beside her immediately turned pale with fright, thinking his sister was confused?!
Hollering the name of a former Red Cloud Sect son-in-law in front of the continent-famous Chen Beixuan?
Lu Ye turned a few steps ahead, frowning slightly as he looked at Zeng Shanshan: "Do you have anything else?"
Under those eyes falling on her, which seemed calm yet gave Zeng Shanshan a rush of pressure akin to torrents and tsunamis.
Immediately, Zeng Shanshan hastily shook her head, saying, "No... no issue."
Lu Ye withdrew his gaze, instantly stepped into the void, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
He planned to head directly to the Realm of Chaos.
Judging by the time, Youluo had been in seclusion for months; he wondered what the situation was now.
After Lu Ye left, Yuan Qiang finally breathed heavily and said, "Sister, what happened to you just now? Calling someone else’s name in front of Elder Chen—luckily, he didn’t care much!"
"Wrong... this is wrong!" But Zeng Shanshan seemed lost, muttering, "You heard him too, he said ’do you have anything else’... He didn’t deny that name?!"
Yuan Qiang was somewhat puzzled; someone asked directly about anything else if they chose to avoid the mistaken name, wasn’t that quite normal?
Why did his sister feel as though that person acknowledged the name?
Zeng Shanshan’s eyes only got brighter as she spoke... Is it possible that she really discovered a blind spot?!
If Chen Beixuan is Lu Ye... would this be shocking news for all of Xuanzhou?
Elsewhere.
Within an instant, Lu Ye had already flown a thousand miles, passing over Cloud Leaf City without stopping.
"Why did that Zeng Shanshan suddenly call that name?"
Lu Ye was equally puzzled in his heart.
After all, if the other person hadn’t had a stroke of intuition to guess something, how could it be so coincidental to call his real name?
After thinking briefly, Lu Ye shook his head.
Even if she guessed correctly, it didn’t matter to him.
The Celestial Realm Fourth Layer, combined with his own foundation, already gave Lu Ye enough confidence to handle any situation beneath the Celestial Human Realm.
The outline of Cloud Leaf City was instantly left behind below, as Lu Ye flew, intending to take out the Communication Jade Token to send a message to Youluo.
But after considering it, he put it away again.
Since he planned to go there, it could wait until he arrived.
According to his estimate, Youluo was likely still in seclusion.
