Chapter 60 The Wild Ducks Cry! Where are you going?!
The next morning.
Looking at the thatched hut in the courtyard that remained completely still, Lu Jin, who was lying in ambush outside, couldn't help but frown.
"Junior Brother Yan, are you sure Wang Yaozu won't try anything funny to secretly tip off Yuan Jingui?"
"Don't worry, it won't happen."
Zhuge Yan smiled and shook his head.
He has already set up four Harmony Formations here, so unless Wang Yaozu forces his way out, he won't be able to leak any information!
"Are you that confident?"
"If he were still the same Ghost Hand Wang Yaozu who was all alone, he would naturally not be afraid of offending our Sanyi Sect."
But things are different now; he has a successor and something to care about.
In this situation, whatever choice he makes, his first thought is no longer himself, but his successor, Li Muxuan.
Imagine if he clashed with us. Knowing Li Muxuan as you do, what do you think he would do?
Lu Jin rested his chin on his hand, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
So much time has passed that he's almost forgotten such a person even existed.
But in Lu Jin's mind, she still had a vague impression of that peer who dared to break the rules.
"Given his temper, he'd probably fight us to the death, right?"
"That's right. He's afraid to act rashly for fear of inadvertently harming others. Even if Wang Yaozu were willing to risk his life for his 'comrades,' he wouldn't dare drag his only successor into the gamble!"
Upon hearing the conversation between the two, Wu Chengzhen couldn't help but glance at Zhuge Yan again.
At such a young age, he has achieved such a masterful control over people's hearts.
Is it really true, as the rumors say, that even if someone surnamed Zhuge is a pig, he is the smartest one?
"I see, you're really something! But will Yuan Jingui really come?"
"How much time has passed? Junior Brother Yan, could you have miscalculated?"
"Don't worry, I won't miscalculate. If I say he'll come today, he definitely will."
As soon as Zhuge Yan finished speaking, the senior brother who was keeping watch ahead, who had been in the position for "three and a half years," suddenly whispered a reminder:
"Here he comes! Shorty, with a sleazy look, he's probably that 'Long-Called Wild Dried Man' Yuan Jingui!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Jin and Zhuge Yan both became serious.
Soon, Yuan Jingui's cursing voice grew louder as it approached, breaking the tranquility of the courtyard.
"Old Wang! Old Wang! Let me tell you, this is really bad luck, I've had the worst luck ever!"
Yuan Jingui, a short man, stepped into the courtyard first, his face still bearing the anger that had not subsided. Behind him followed his Quanxing companion, who also had an unfriendly expression and was covered in bandages.
"You have no idea, a few days ago in Chongqing, we were about to blow up that little brat."
Damn it, who knew that the Zhuge family brat was as slippery as an eel, and in the end he ended up tricking us...
As he complained, he habitually walked toward Wang Yaozu, who was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, his gaze casually sweeping over the figure opposite Wang Yaozu, who was facing away from him and wearing the iconic moon-white Taoist robe of the Sanyi Sect.
The figure sat upright, his white hair particularly striking in the morning light, clearly a disciple of the Sanyi Sect who had activated the third level of Reverse Life.
A hint of disdain and annoyance flashed through Yuan Jingui's mind. He cursed inwardly that this godforsaken place was indeed full of lackeys of the San Yi Sect.
Although he didn't know what the Sanyi Sect wanted from Wang Yaozu, it was none of his business anyway, so he was happy to watch the show.
"Old Wang, it seems you've run into some trouble too. Do you need our help...?"
Yuan Jingui abruptly stopped speaking.
Just as he walked to the side, his gaze finally caught a glimpse of the profile of the "Sanyi Sect disciple" sitting with his back to him.
The next moment, his feet seemed to be nailed to the ground, and all the unspoken taunts and jokes were instantly stuck in his throat.
That face! That pale face, yet with a faint, almost imperceptible smile!
Although her hair had turned snow-white and her skin appeared even more bloodless due to the reversed growth process, her features, her eyes...
Yuan Jingui would rather die than admit his mistake!
"You...you...Zhuge Yan?!"
Yuan Jingui's pupils suddenly contracted to the size of pinpoints, and the color drained from his face in an instant, leaving only extreme horror and disbelief.
He looked as if he had seen a ghost; his voice became shrill and distorted, and his finger pointing at Zhuge Yan trembled violently.
Meanwhile, Wang Yaozu, sitting opposite him, just stared at him expressionlessly, his eyes filled with complex emotions and a hint of helplessness.
He didn't speak, but slowly closed his eyes, even leaning back slightly, clearly stating his position.
Zhuge Yan slowly turned his head to face Shangyuan Jingui's wide, fear-filled eyes.
He even had a gentle smile on his face, as if he were just greeting an old friend, but that smile was cold and devoid of any warmth.
"Yuan Jingui, how have you been?"
Zhuge Yan's voice was terrifyingly calm, each word like an icicle piercing Yuan Jingui's heart.
"It's been so long since we parted ways in Chongqing, I never expected to see you again so soon."
I haven't had a chance to properly thank you for that little airplane trinket you gave me before I left...
In an instant, Yuan Jingui felt a chill run from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head, and the hairs on his body stood on end!
He finally understood that this wasn't aimed at Wang Yaozu at all; it was aimed at him!
Damn it!
Trinity Gate!
Why is this brat a member of the Trinity Clan?!
"run!!!"
Driven almost by instinct, Yuan Jingui roared and turned sharply to try and escape.
However, it was all too late!
The instant he uttered the word "run"—
hum!
Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Several incredibly powerful auras instantly shot into the sky from the surrounding walls, rooftops, and even hidden spots outside the gate!
It was like an invisible giant net that had been spread out for a long time suddenly tightening!
Lu Jin was the first to appear on the courtyard wall, his face filled with suppressed anger and pleasure.
"Changming Yegan! Where do you think you're going?!"
His body was radiating white true qi, and he was in full reversal state, with an incomparably fierce aura.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Chengzhen's steady figure blocked the main entrance, his gaze like a sharp sword, firmly locking onto Yuan Jingui.
Behind him were the senior student who had been studying for "three and a half years," the burly man carrying the stone lock, and the senior student holding a steamed bun...
More than a dozen disciples of the Sanyi Sect, dressed in moon-white Taoist robes, descended like divine soldiers, instantly surrounding the entire courtyard!
Each of them exuded a calm and focused aura, their eyes sharp. The faint white energy brought by the Reverse Life Triple Transformation flowed around their bodies, forming a suffocating and murderous aura.
The small courtyard, which was not large to begin with, seemed to freeze in the air at this moment.
A dozen cold gazes, like tangible shackles, were fixed on Yuan Jingui and his companion, who was already terrified and pale as a ghost.
Upon witnessing this scene, Yuan Jingui froze on the spot, his body trembling uncontrollably, his last shred of hope for escape completely shattered.
"Long-crying wild geese?"
Zhuge Yan slowly stood up, his white hair, which was in a reverse-growth state, moved without wind, and a cold smile gradually appeared on his lips.
"Your barking should stop today."
