Chapter 544 - 245: Spirit Seed News Resurfaces_3
Chu Ning was the same.
"Hmm?" Just at this moment, Chu Ning suddenly felt a stir in his heart.
Even though he hadn’t intentionally extended his Divine Sense, his senses were exceptionally sharp. At this moment, he vaguely noticed a concealed presence appearing within the courtyard.
Out of curiosity, Chu Ning couldn’t help but release his Spiritual Sense to investigate.
Soon, he sensed a figure approximately twenty zhang deep underground from his position.
The newcomer was a young man with the appearance of about twenty-five or twenty-six years, possessing the cultivation at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment, and shrouded in a layer of light as he stealthily proceeded towards the depths of the courtyard.
"Oh, he’s using the Earth Escape Technique to come here, but it seems he also carries some kind of Magical Treasure that shields against Divine Sense.
If it weren’t for my own Divine Sense that’s comparable to a Golden Core Cultivator, just relying on the Divine Sense of a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator would not have detected him."
Although Chu Ning detected him, he naturally had no intention of exposing this person.
However, with a curious mindset, Chu Ning continued to lock onto the other with his Spiritual Sense, wanting to see what this person was up to.
He saw that the person was heading directly towards the backyard where many imprisoned female cultivators were held.
Although Chu Ning hadn’t visited the backyard, he had probed it with his Divine Sense over the past two days, knowing there were about thirty young female cultivators held there.
Each of these female cultivators was confined in a small room, separated by Restrictions.
The young man seemed to have already determined his target, heading directly to the area beneath the seventh room of the east wing.
Chu Ning also sensed that when the young man emerged from underground, a young and beautiful woman in the room immediately showed a look of joy.
It seemed she had anticipated that the man would come to rescue her, without a word, she accepted a Talisman handed over by the young man.
Then she followed him and retreated along the way they came using the Earth Escape Technique.
"Turns out it’s a heroic rescue!"
Upon seeing this, Chu Ning smiled slightly to himself.
He was about to withdraw his Divine Sense, when suddenly, he noticed Yan Chunyun walking out from the hall towards the outer courtyard.
This caused Chu Ning’s eyebrows to lift slightly, feeling a twinge of concern for the young couple.
"The Magical Treasure shielding against Divine Sense was good for the man alone, but now covering two people, its effect was weakened.
If it were a Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment Cultivator, it might still go unnoticed, but Yan Chunyun is a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator.
In such close proximity, just a little attention from him and they would surely be discovered."
Thinking about the people You Jing cared about, Chu Ning’s gaze flickered slightly.
"Forget it, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, I’ll help you this time."
Muttering to himself, Chu Ning quickly spoke with a smile:
"Boss Yan has finished his cultivation, I assume there’s something he wants to instruct us?"
Saying this, Chu Ning immediately walked towards Yan Chunyun.
When Chu Ning spoke, the others showed expressions of ambiguous smiles.
However, seeing Chu Ning actively approaching Yan Chunyun, the others also moved their steps to follow.
Everyone knew that in this courtyard, Yan Chunyun had the final say.
Since Boss Yan had just finished his cultivation, he certainly was in a good mood.
No one wanted to miss this flattering opportunity exclusively to Jin Changhui.
Seeing that everyone indeed followed him to greet Yan Chunyun, Chu Ning instantly focused his Spiritual Sense, conveying a message to the couple underground.
"You are about to be discovered, turn and exit from the southeast direction."
The young couple, using a Secret Treasure to avoid Spiritual Sense detection and performing the Earth Escape Technique, were startled to hear this, immediately halting.
The two exchanged glances, and the next moment, the man gritted his teeth and then led the woman, turning to exit directly from the southeast direction.
After escaping quite a distance, the young man surfaced from the already prepared spot, entering a room.
"Junior Sister!"
"Senior Brother!"
Once out of danger, the two were overjoyed, and after exchanging heartfelt words,
the young woman suddenly asked, "Senior Brother, who was the fellow cultivator that helped us just now?"
"I don’t know." The man shook his head, looking puzzled.
"Why would someone from the Profound Yin Sect help us?"
The two thought for a long time, unable to figure it out.
The man then said, "Forget it, maybe some Senior was just passing by.
We should leave quickly too and head to the Sect’s outpost in the alliance. In a few days, the Sect’s Seniors will also come."
"Alright!"
At the moment within the courtyard,
Chu Ning stood beside Yan Chunyun, sensing with his Spiritual Sense that the couple had already escaped beyond the courtyard’s vicinity. He chuckled inwardly.
As for what happened to them afterward, it was no longer any concern of his.
At this time, Yan Chunyun, having dual cultivated with the beautiful Lady Zheng, was in a good mood.
Suddenly being surrounded and flattered by so many people, his mood naturally became even better.
He didn’t notice the activity underground at all.
Initially thinking of checking the backyard, he realized there wasn’t much happening these days, and after chatting idly in the courtyard for quite a while, he lost interest in the idea.
After some time, when Chu Ning and others changed shifts, he went back to his room to rest.
In fact, with the physicalities of cultivators like Chu Ning, they could go a whole night without resting, simply meditating and cultivating without any issue.
However, to show fairness, Yan Chunyun had implemented a shift system.
Thus, after being on duty for the first half of the night, Chu Ning and others could rest in their rooms for the second half.
The next morning, while cultivating, Chu Ning suddenly heard a burst of angry shouting.
"Where is the person from East Wing Room Seven? Everyone come out."
Hearing Yan Chunyun’s angry shout, everyone rushed towards the backyard.
And there they saw Yan Chunyun and the beautiful Lady Zheng standing in the open door of East Wing Room Seven.
Inside, it was empty.
Although Chu Ning knew what happened, he too displayed a bewildered expression like everyone else.
Yan Chunyun and the beautiful Lady Zheng wore particularly gloomy expressions.
The face of the beautiful Lady Zheng, usually as radiant as a peach blossom, was now ashen.
"This person must have escaped last night. Search, everyone head to Hong Lake City to search now.
Among these female cultivators, she was the most talented. We had already reported this matter to Protector You.
If we can’t get her back, all of us will..."
The lady suddenly paused, raising her head to look at the sky in the courtyard’s direction.
At this moment, an Escape Light was rapidly flying towards here.
Everyone followed her gaze upwards, and upon recognizing the newcomer, Chu Ning couldn’t help but feel a slight chill in his heart.
Protector You Jing had arrived.
