Volume 3 Chapter 337
The front of the Bibo Inn seemed a little deserted, except for the occasional two or three people passing by, not even a single vendor.
At this time, a gray-robed youth with ordinary facial features was hurriedly striding here, and after a slight pause at the door, he stepped into the inn.
It was Liu Ming who rushed back from the broken temple outside the city without stopping.
As soon as he stepped into the inn, he walked through several courtyards in a row, came straight to a quieter courtyard, and stopped in front of a certain house.
I saw that Ye Tianmei's rented residence was closed at this time, and it seemed that this uncle Ye had not returned from going out.
Seeing this, Liu Ming frowned slightly, but he didn't care. He expected that this female sword cultivator in the crystal transformation period would not be idle, so he turned back to his room and waited quietly.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Liu Ming calmed down and quickly passed through what the old man in yellow robe had just said in his mind, and the whole person began to calm down.
Judging from the information I have received so far, the people who have disappeared inexplicably here are all mature monks who have cultivated in the liquid condensing realm, and most of them come here to purchase resources. They must have brought a lot of spiritual stones with them. To start with them, it is either for the spirit stone or for the people.
Let’s not talk about the spirit stones for the time being. Anyone who learns that someone is carrying so many spirit stones will not be indifferent, but since those people have been sent out for procurement, they must also understand the truth of not revealing their wealth in unfamiliar places, unless… It is the other side of the transaction, but would Jinggu do such a reputational thing for a mere few spirit stones?
As early as when Liu Ming was in the Barbarian Ghost School, he learned from the Tibetan Sutra Pavilion that some evil cultivators can use some extremely strange techniques to extract the soul or blood of living people and use them to practice some powerful magic arts. . Even, directly use its flesh to refine puppets and magic weapons with extremely terrifying attack power.
After all, some cultivators can use any kind of cruel tactics in pursuit of great strength.
But whether it is one of the two, or there is a third possibility, is really a matter of two things.
In the current crisis situation, it seems that I have to be more careful.
Thinking of this, he exhaled a long breath, put away the distracting thoughts, and began to close his eyes and become calm.
...
After half a day.
"Come out, I'll take you to meet someone." A cold voice from Ye Tianmei suddenly sounded in Liu Ming's ear.
Liu Ming was naturally shocked when he heard the words, and immediately jumped up, pushed the door and walked out.
At this moment, Ye Tianmei, dressed in white, was standing at the entrance of the inn.
Seeing that Liu Ming didn't have time to greet this uncle, Ye Tianmei turned around and left immediately.
Seeing this, Liu Ming could only laugh bitterly, and then followed out of the Bibo Inn.
"I don't know who this Uncle Ye wants to take me to see?" On the way, Liu Ming thought to himself.
But he felt that the information he inquired from the old man in yellow robe was valuable, so he began to say to Ye Tianmei through sound transmission:
"Uncle Ye, the younger generation found some clues when they inquired about the news in the middle of Gunan City in the past two days, which may be related to the disappearance of the two alliance deacons for no reason... Moreover, the behind-the-scenes forces in this Gunan City seem to be concerned about this matter. Doesn't seem to care much..."
now,
It was Liu Ming who informed Ye Tianmei of all the news that he had inquired about in the past two days.
After Ye Tianmei heard what Liu Ming said, her expression was a little moved, but she didn't speak.
Seeing this, Liu Ming continued to follow in silence.
After a meal, the two came to the outside of a tall stone hall in Gunan City.
The stone hall is built of an unknown dark boulder. Under the sunlight, it exudes a faint black halo. It must be that there are a lot of restrictions. It does not seem to be simple.
There are several guards standing outside the stone hall, their attire is the same as the guards at the gate of the city, but they are taller and more burly. The lavender full-body armor on his body is quite dazzling and dazzling under the afterglow of the setting sun.
Just from the aura emanating from his body, it can be found that these guards are all in the late stage of spiritual disciples, and some are even in the early stage of liquid condensate.
Liu Ming was secretly surprised, but his face was calm.

Ye Tianmei walked up to these guards and said something to the leader who had a voice transmission, but the guard immediately turned and walked away with a respectful look on his face.
Ye Tianmei waited on the spot with her expression unchanged.
It was not too long, the footsteps came from the door, and it was the guard who ran out in a hurry. After he waved his hand, all the guards immediately retreated to both sides and made a gesture of respect.
Ye Tianmei walked towards the door of the hall without saying a word, and Liu Ming naturally followed Ye Tianmei into the stone hall.
The stone hall is rectangular, about several dozen feet in size, with many statues erected on both sides. There is only one table and eight chairs in the center of the hall, making the hall look extremely empty and deep.
I saw a tall figure in a lavender robe standing in this hall, with his back facing the direction of the entrance, standing with his hands behind his back.
Perhaps hearing the sound of footsteps, the old man turned around slowly, only to see that the skin on his body was green, his pupils were golden, and the breath he exuded seemed unfathomable, and this kind of breath, Liu Ming once It can also be felt in Ye Tianmei.
This just shows that this old man is obviously also a crystal transformation powerhouse with a terrifying cultivation base!
From the appearance of the old man, Liu Ming can judge that the old man should be a member of the orc race.
On the way here, Liu Ming had already inquired clearly, this orc race is actually just a name, not that their appearance is really like a beast, or that their blood is really related to beasts.
However, in many aspects, especially in terms of physical quality, the orcs are not comparable to ordinary humans, but most of the orcs are naturally tyrannical, and their bones are extremely dense and solid. And once they embark on the road of cultivation, most of the exercises they practice are exercises that have the effect of tempering the body. This is quite similar to the body refiners in the human race, but they are not as different as the human body refiners. It makes its own body collapse, and its power is naturally even more incomparable.
I saw that the old man was wearing a purple robe, and a spar-shaped silver pattern was inscribed on the cuff, which seemed to indicate that he was not low in the Crystal Valley.
Now Liu Ming knows where Ye Tianmei brought him. Obviously, this is where Jinggu really controls Gunan City.
When Ye Tianmei saw the old man, his face moved slightly, and he seemed to be a little surprised, but he returned to normal in a blink of an eye, staring at the old man and said lightly:
"It turned out to be Fellow Daoist Meng Huo. I haven't seen you for a long time. I didn't expect that you have already entered the crystal formation stage. It's really congratulations."
Hearing this woman's words, she actually knew the old man in front of her.
The old man of the orc race known as Mengmen gave a wry smile when he heard the words, and then said gratefully:
"Fairy Ye is joking. I was trapped for decades in the late stage of the liquid condensing realm. If it weren't for the opportunity later, I would have exhausted my lifespan and died. Besides, if it wasn't for the opportunity at that time, I would have died. Fairy Ye came to the rescue, Meng Huo would have long ago..."
"Let's not talk about the past, I came to you today because I want to ask you something." Ye Tianmei waved his hand unceremoniously as if he hadn't heard the words of gratitude. interrupted his next words. (Please add Wangyu public WeChat account: "Wangyu" Note: Please look for the WeChat certification with a tick mark, or check the "wang--yu" WeChat public account)
"If Fairy Ye wants to ask anything, even if she opens her mouth, Meng Huo will definitely know everything." Meng Huo also knew a little of Ye Tianmei's temper, so he didn't think it was strange, but nodded slowly.
Although he knew that Ye Tianmei saved his life back then, it was just a matter of convenience, but he was naturally grateful to Ye Tianmei.
Otherwise, with his current status and the strength of the powerhouse in the current crystal formation stage, there is no need to be so humble towards Ye Tianmei.
"What I want to ask is nothing else. You must already know that quite a few cultivators in the liquid condensing realm have disappeared in Gunan City inexplicably in the past year, right?" Ye Tianmei's beautiful eyes flashed. When he asked Meng Huo, his tone was quite questioning.
"Well, I have indeed heard about this. I don't know what Fairy Ye wants to ask?" Meng Hao didn't answer Ye Tianmei's question directly at first, and was silent for a while before slowly replying.
"Among them, the two deacons of my Yunchuan Alliance are missing." Ye Tianmei stared at Meng Huo, his tone became cold, and he said word by word.
Meng Huo heard the words, and the muscles on his face moved imperceptibly.
Although the Yunchuan Alliance has not been established for a long time, after integrating the power of many sects in the Yunchuan continent, it has almost become one of the largest forces below the Canghai Royal Family and the Kraken Emperor in the Canghai Domain.
This Jinggu is naturally going to give Yunchuan Alliance some face.
"I have now found out that the two deacons of the Yunchuan Alliance disappeared not long after entering Gunan City a few months ago, and they originally planned to make a deal with Jinggu. Should fellow Daoist Meng give me an explanation? "Ye Tianmei's voice increased slightly, as if to remind Meng Huo of something.
"Oh, I didn't expect the two deacons of your alliance to disappear in the city. This is a bit beyond my expectations. But I don't know if the two deacons had any grudges in Gunan City, maybe they were killed by the enemy's family. It might be possible to seek revenge." The expression on Meng Xie's face was a little strange, and he said that after pondering for a while.
Ye Tianmei heard the words, his face sank, and an astonishing aura was released from his body immediately, and his breath became as sharp as a sword, and said coldly:
"Menghuo, do you think I will believe such an explanation? If you don't give me an explanation today, I'm afraid that the next time this alliance sends someone over, I won't be alone. It just so happens that the Yunchuan Alliance was established not long ago. We also need to find an opportunity to demonstrate one or two outside.”
"Fairy Ye, don't get me wrong! I've only heard about this. I was actually dispatched to this place by Gu Zhong recently. Therefore, I do not know exactly what happened in the city during that period of time. Fairy Ye If you don't believe me, you can ask yourself one or two, whether anyone has disappeared like this since the old man took up residence in this city." Meng Xie sighed, his face full of helplessness.
