Chapter 174 Your House Was Raided!

The dark cave was filled with a strong stench. Thousands of children were locked in cages, helplessly looking at the outside world.

These children were ragged, their faces were covered with dirt and grime, and they huddled in a corner, their eyes full of despair and sadness.

Thousands of children in cages, some huddled in a corner and shivered, some lay on the ground and shivered, and more children hugged their knees, buried their heads in their knees and cried silently.

Yang Ling walked slowly towards the imprisoned children, who quickly retreated and huddled in a corner, their eyes full of fear and anxiety.

Yang Ling whispered to comfort them: "Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person, I'm here to save you."

Although the children were still afraid, they gradually stopped trembling under Yang Ling's comfort, and a few brave children even began to look at the savior who suddenly appeared curiously.

At the same time, the immortals in the distance saw that the movement in the cave had stopped abruptly, and their hearts were intertwined with curiosity and fear.

They quietly approached the cave, wanting to find out what was going on.

However, when they saw that Zhou Xin, Li Qi and others had disappeared, and only Yang Ling and a group of children were left in the cave, they were immediately frightened and turned around to run away, fearing that they would become the next to disappear.

"Stop!" Yang Ling shouted coldly, his voice was like a strong wind in the cold winter, piercing and pressing.

The immortals froze, not daring to move, and could only turn around trembling.

"Where is Lu Yue's retreat?"

Yang Ling's eyes were like lightning, scanning these immortals.

The immortals looked at each other, lowered their heads one by one, and no one dared to look at Yang Ling.

"You won't say it, right?"

Yang Ling's expression turned cold, and his mind moved slightly, and a golden palm appeared out of thin air, grabbing a young immortal in a Taoist robe.

"Please spare me, Immortal!" The captured immortal trembled in his mouth, his voice as thin as a mosquito: "We are just ordinary disciples, we really don't know where the master's retreat place is!"

A white-haired old Taoist also hurriedly said: "The master's retreat place has always been mysterious. No one knows it except his direct disciples."

Yang Ling frowned slightly, he knew that these immortals might be telling the truth.

However, Zhou Xin, Li Qi and other direct disciples have been collected by him in the gourd, and they are probably about to turn into ashes.

I didn't expect that this Lu Yue is quite cunning.

Yang Ling's eyes were like sharp arrows, piercing the hearts of the immortals. He asked in a deep voice: "You, have you used these children to practice?"

The immortals looked at each other, as if they were a little surprised by this question, and then realized the murderous intention hidden behind Yang Ling's question, and all shook their heads and waved their hands desperately.

The white-haired old Taoist stepped forward and answered with a trembling voice: "We... we really don't know. This place is the master's training place. We ordinary disciples cannot get close to it."

A cold light flashed in Yang Ling's eyes, but he did not get angry. Instead, he quietly observed the expressions and breath of the immortals and gods, trying to find falsehood from their soul fluctuations.

After a moment of observation, he found that the soul fluctuations of these immortals were stable and there was no intention of deceiving. He nodded slightly and said in a slightly slower tone: "In this case, you can leave. However, if I find out that you dare to use the human race to practice poison skills, I will definitely not let you go."

The immortals and gods were as if they had been pardoned. They did not dare to stay for a moment and hurriedly fled the cave in a panic, fearing that they would suffer Yang Ling's anger if they hesitated.

Yang Ling watched them leave and turned to face the children. His eyes were much gentler and he whispered: "Don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt you again."

When the children heard Yang Ling's words, the fear in their eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a glimmer of hope.

With a gentle wave of his hand, a series of pale golden rays of light shone on the chains. With a few crisp sounds of "crackling", the sturdy iron cages were easily cut open like tofu.

The children looked at everything happening in front of them. Although they were still afraid, the despair in their eyes had been replaced by a glimmer of hope.

Yang Ling waved his hand gently, and the space fluctuated slightly. A huge scroll slowly unfolded. The mountains and rivers in the painting were vivid, as if it was a real world.

The children looked at the wonders in front of them in amazement, not knowing why.

"Don't be afraid, it will be safe here. You can rest here for the time being."

Yang Ling waved his hand gently, and a series of warm rays of light enveloped the children. Then they were like being picked up by a gentle breeze and slowly floated into the scroll.

After collecting all the children into the world in the painting, Yang Ling's eyes became sharp.

He extended his divine consciousness and carefully searched every corner of Jiulong Island. When he encountered a forbidden formation, he went to crack it himself.

He wanted to find Lu Yue and make him pay for his crimes.

Yang Ling's divine sense was like a net covering the entire Jiulong Island.

Finally, in the southwest corner of the island, he sensed a unique spiritual fluctuation. With his precise search, a cave hidden in the belly of the mountain was revealed.

This cave was covered by a layer of light mist. If it weren't for Yang Ling's sharp divine sense, it would be almost impossible to detect.

He flashed and appeared in front of the cave. He saw two huge stone pillars in front of the cave door engraved with ancient runes, which was obviously a powerful defensive array.

But for Yang Ling, such an array was just child's play.

It didn't take much effort to find the center of the array. With a flick of his finger, a sword light accurately hit the center of the array.

The magic circle suddenly shattered, turning into dots of light that dissipated into the air.

Yang Ling stepped into the cave.

The cave looked small, but in fact, there was another world inside, like Mount Sumeru contained in a mustard seed, and the internal space was very wide.

Yang Ling looked around and found that Lu Yue was not in the cave, but he found a flourishing herb garden.

This herb garden was large in scale, and planted with exotic flowers and herbs of various shapes, some of which were as bright as gems, and some of which were fragrant and refreshing.

He had a sharp eye and could recognize at a glance that many of them were rare herbs, which were of great benefit to practitioners.

This Lu Yue was a great expert in using poison, so he cultivated so many rare herbs here.

Yang Ling pondered for a moment, and directly waved his hand, and a stream of spiritual power turned into an invisible arm, carefully collecting the mature herbs and properly storing them in his own storage space.

These herbs may not be precious to him, but they are rare treasures for other practitioners.

Then, Yang Ling's eyes were stern, and a flame jumped in his palm. He blew gently, and the flame turned into a fire dragon, sweeping the entire medicine garden.

In an instant, the flames shot up into the sky, and all the exotic flowers and plants in the medicine garden turned into ashes.

After burning the medicine garden, Yang Ling did not stop. He continued to go deeper into the cave and soon found a huge spirit beast garden.

There were all kinds of rare and exotic beasts locked up there, some of which were huge in size, some of which had strange shapes, and each of them exuded a powerful spiritual energy.

Yang Ling frowned, these spirit beasts were obviously forced to be imprisoned here, used for people to refine poisons or other unspeakable purposes.

The defense of the magic circle was much stronger than that of the medicine garden, but it could not withstand Yang Ling's destruction and was soon destroyed.

With the collapse of the magic circle, the rare and exotic beasts in the garden felt the disappearance of the restraints, broke free from the cages, quickly fled the spirit beast garden, and disappeared into the dense jungle.

Yang Ling burned all of Lu Yue's kung fu with a fire. He turned Jiulong Island upside down, but he still couldn't find any trace of Lu Yue.

Obviously, Lu Yue was not on Jiulong Island, otherwise he would not watch his cave being destroyed.

Considering that the children could not stay in the mountain and river map for too long, Yang Ling finally decided to return to Chaoge first, and after properly arranging these children, he would come to trouble Lu Yue.

As the black dragon disappeared in the sea of ​​clouds, the immortals and gods on Jiulong Island breathed a sigh of relief.

One of the gray-robed Taoist priests had a sinister look, and quietly turned into a stream of light while others were not paying attention, and left Jiulong Island.

The gray-robed Taoist priest moved quickly in the night, crossed tens of thousands of miles of sea, and finally came to a dangerous isolated island.

"Brother Lu Yue!"

The gray-robed Taoist priest called several times in a row.

After a moment, a dull voice suddenly came from the island: "Brother Chen Gen, what are you doing here?"

The old Taoist in gray robe nervously replied: "Brother, your cave has just been raided!"

In a few words, he told everything that happened today without hiding anything.

"What?!"

A roar sounded, with indescribable anger and disbelief.

The next moment, the entire island began to shake violently.

The rocks collapsed, the sea water churned, and the entire island was torn into pieces in the sound of the explosion, turning into countless fragments, and dissipated in the vast sea with the waves.

An old Taoist wearing a bright red Taoist robe and with three eyes soared into the sky and roared: "Damn guy, dare to destroy the Taoist's cave, I will make you live a life worse than death!"
