Qi Lan remembered Rong Yi’s body, and quickly looked around, but Rong Yi’s body was already nowhere to find.
“Xiaorong?”
Qi Lan used his divine sense to look for Rong Yi’s body, fortunately he did not go too far, soon he traced Rong Yi’s body who was flying toward Su Lan Mansion.
He muttered a curse as he sent Xinghe a message while flying the sword to catch up.
Qi Lan became more and more curious about Rong Yi’s body. As the leading Mahayana cultivator said, the master could tell his thing but could not foretell someone with lower cultivation than him, which was weird.
He had no idea who this Xiaorong is, and where he came from. He had ever let Xinyue get him investigated, but it seemed he came from nowhere. They just couldn’t get a clue.
Qi Lan soon caught up with Rong Yi’s body.
Rong Yi’s body still looked dull, but when he looked at the magic weapon in the hand, he would smile happily as if he obtained some treasure.
He asked, “Is this the magic weapon you took from that cultivator’s bag?”
Rong Yi’s body did not respond to him. He put it away in the storage ring and flew south.
“Where are you going?” Qi Lan quickly pulled him.
Rong Yi’s body immediately pulled out the magic weapon trying to fight back.
Qi Lan quickly let go and said angrily, “Do you want to save Rong Yi or not? If you keep wasting time like this, Rong Yi will die.”
Rong Yi’s body heard the name Rong Yi, he paused there, looking painful on the face, “Quickly, take me to look for Rong Yi.”
Qi Lan saw that he was not like pretending, so he instantly held him and flew not far from Su Lan Mansion.
Rong Yi’s body restored the original state again, “Holy shit, we are here finally.”
Qi Lan glared at him, “You can now talk about what happened to you before?”
“You only need to know that it was not faking it.” Rong Yi’s body rubbed his eyebrows. Suddenly, he saw that Rong Yi being pressed on the altar. His face changed. “Oh shit! Someone wants to possess Rong Yi’s body. We should hurry up.”
Qi Lan pulled him, “There are so many people at the gate. It takes us time and effort to fight all the way. I know a secret tunnel. You follow me.”
Rong Yi’s body asked, “Are you sure that the other side wouldn’t have foretold that we would take the secret tunnel and ambush us there?”
Qi Lan gave him a meaningful look, “I think with you here, the other side may not know there’s a secret tunnel.”
Rong Yi’s body wondered, “Why?”
“I am just guessing. Maybe they already know. We can walk while discussing. If we don’t hurry, Rong Yi will die.”
Rong Yi’s body ridiculed, “Didn’t you already wish him to die? Why suddenly worry about his safety?”
Qi Lan coldly snorted, “Even if he has to die, he can only die in my hand, then it’d be even between us.”
Rong Yi’s body, “…”
He felt so lucky that he hadn’t admitted that he was Rong Yi.
Qi Lan took him to the foot of the mountain and found the trigger of the secret tunnel.
The trigger was a pile of green grass. As long as the grass was pulled up, a door would be opened on the mountain wall, and the torch in the tunnel would be lit immediately.
“Go.” Qi Lan turned off the trigger, and flew inside holding Rong Yi’s body quickly.
As the wall was closed, the haystack outside rose again.
All the way down, it went very smooth, no intercept, no trap.
Out of the secret tunnel, they came inside the rockery in Su Lan Mansion.
Qi Lan covered up the smell of both of them with his magic weapon, quietly stretched out his head to observe, and saw people walking in twos and threes on the corridor.
He sneered, “Taking Rong Yi to the mansion my mother used to like most. I guess they have anticipated that Yin Jinye and his people would never come here to look for him.”
Yeah, it’s true. If it hadn’t been that Rong Yi’s body could see where Rong Yi was taken to, they would definitely not expect that they would hide him in here.
The people outside absolutely thought they couldn’t find this place where they were no patrolling guards.
Qi Lan asked Rong Yi’s body, “Do you know where Rong Yi is?”
Rong Yi’s body closed his eyes and saw the place where Rong Yi was through Rong Yi’s soul inside his body, “He is in a courtyard full of peonies.”
Qi Lan said crossly, “That’s the yard where my parents used to live.”
Rong Yi’s body anxiously said, “We should hurry. They are trying to transmit their own souls into Rong Yi’s body”
Qi Lan does not understand, “Why do they want to Rong Yi’s body? What is the use of the body of a cultivator at his Qi Practicing?”
“You ask me, who do I ask?” of course Rong Yi’s body would never tell him that Rong Yi owns the extreme yin body.
After those people outside left, Qi Lan quickly flew quietly into the shady area outside the wall of the yard with Rong Yi.
Inside the courtyard, the formation was fast working, with Rong Yi locked inside.
In addition to Rong Yi, three other men stood beside, who were wearing black cloaks and the large hats covered their faces.
Qi Lan frowned and said to Rong Yi through sound transmission, “This time, I’m afraid we can’t save Rong Yi.”
Rong Yi’s body asked, “Is their cultivation higher than you?”
“All three of them are Mahayana cultivators.” Qi Lan pointed to the cultivators on the far left, “Especially his spiritual power is higher than mine. He should be at his Doom Overpowering phase.”
That might also be the reason they didn’t have many people with them.
Rong Yi’s body, “…”
Is it too late for them to go back and get help now?
Qi Lan then said, “Even if Jinye is here, it may be a draw, but, if Xinghe bring people to make a big scene here, maybe I can take advantage of the chaos to save him.”
“Let me go, let me go.” Rong Yi looked very scared, struggling while crying hard, “You big liars, you used my senior brother’s voice to lure me here.”
Rong Yi’s body sneered as he heard that, “Serves you right. See if you dare go look for your senior brother!”
The cultivator in the middle waved his sleeves and let the noisy Rong Yi fall asleep, “Let’s begin.”
The cultivator on the right asked, “Does his soul need to be extracted?”
The one in the middle said, “Hmm, I need to see if his soul is connected with his spiritual root and extreme yin body, and if it’s worth my trouble to devour him.”
He said so while generating his spiritual power.
