He didn't know that he was thinking too much. Lin Yi's skill could only be used on brainless beasts like the ancient monitor lizard. It was useless against golden core stage Masters like him. Not to mention golden core stage Masters, even Foundation Stage Masters wouldn't be affected at all. It could only be used against normal people.

However, Xue Jianfeng didn't know this inside information. He was now like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow, and his heart was filled with fear. Although he was now a master of the great circle of Jindan stage, there was no substantial progress in his spiritual awareness, which was almost the weakest link, so he couldn't help but be afraid.

Seeing Lin Yi's eyes on him, Xue Jianfeng quivered and quickly squeezed out a smile, afraid that Lin Yi would have evil thoughts,""Many thanks for your help."

He said that, but he wanted to kill Lin Yi right now. This guy was a classic ungrateful Wolf.

"There's no need. I'm not here for you," Lin Yi said, curling his lips.

"Then ... Let's part ways here ..." Xue Jianfeng was extremely cautious when he said this, afraid that Lin Yi would suddenly attack him. Although there was still Bing Wuqing, his "ally", and he didn't really believe that Lin Yi, who was only at the peak Foundation Stage, could defeat him, a peak golden core stage, the scene just now was too shocking. This guy couldn't be calculated with common sense.

As expected, Lin Yi didn't want to let him go just like that. He stopped him,"Hold on,"

"What do you want?" Xue Jianfeng was immediately on guard as if he was facing a great enemy. At the same time, he tried his best to signal Bing Wuqing with his eyes, hoping that she would help him deal with Lin Yi. Even though they both had their own ulterior motives when they were dealing with the ancient monitor lizard, they were still Central's people, after all. He believed that Bing Wuqing wouldn't turn against him on a matter of principle, because that would be equivalent to betraying central.

What he didn't know was that Bing Wuqing wasn't one of his people, but one of Lin Yi 'S. He was overthinking things.

"Where's Leng Leng?" Lin Yi stared at him unkindly. Although he didn't know what happened after they entered the territory of the ancient giant lizard, he was sure that Xue Jianfeng had been chasing Leng Leng before this. There was no doubt about it.

It would be fine if Leng Leng was safe and sound, but if something happened to her, Lin Yi would never let Xue Jianfeng go.

"She's already escaped. " Xue Jianfeng quickly replied.

"Really?" Lin Yi was skeptical, but he ordered the water lotus clone,""Check it out."

Hearing this, Xue Jianfeng was stunned. Only now did he finally notice the unfamiliar face next to Duanmu Yu. He couldn't help but wonder where this person came from. He more or less had an impression of all the archaic disciples who participated in the trial, but there was no such person? Plus, Lin Yi wanted him to investigate Lengleng's matter, how was he supposed to do that?

At this moment, Bing Wuqing stepped forward and said,""Coold has indeed escaped. I saw her leave with my own eyes."

"Is that so?" Lin Yi let out a sigh of relief. He didn't need to think to know that it was Bing Wuqing who saved Leng Leng from Xue Jianfeng. At this time, the water lotus clone also said,""The woman has escaped safely and is now with the group of people from before."

"That's good. " Lin Yi nodded.

"Can I go now?" Xue Jianfeng didn't dare to stay any longer. He didn't wait for Lin Yi's reply and quickly left. At the same time, he said to Bing Wuqing in dissatisfaction,""Aren't you going to remove your broken cage?!"

Bing Wuqing furrowed her brows and looked at Lin Yi. Seeing that Lin Yi didn't object, she waved her hand to remove the heartless ice threads.

Xue Jianfeng didn't hesitate to use traceless Snowsteps and disappeared in the blink of an eye. To him, Lin Yi was far more worthy of fear than the ancient giant lizard.

Lin Yi looked at the direction this guy left in, deep in thought. In fact, this guy should be dead for attacking Leng Leng and the others just because of Xue Jianfeng, but Lin Yi's current level was too low. It was not easy to deal with a peak Jindan.

Of course, it wasn't like he couldn't fight for real. After all, he had Bing Wuqing, a Peak Gold core cultivator, on his side. The problem was that Lin Yi himself was like an arrow at the end of its flight, and he couldn't fight.

However, Lin Yi didn't show it on his face. He maintained his calm expression and looked at Bing Wuqing,""What's going on with this guy? It seems like there's something you can't let us know?"

After thinking about it carefully, Xue Jianfeng's actions just now were extremely unusual. It was true that he was shocked by Lin Yi's shocking methods, but he was still a perfected golden core expert, and Bing Wuqing was on his side in name. There was no need for him to be afraid of Lin Yi, and there was no need for him to run away like this. There must be something going on.

"That's right. From the moment he entered this trial ground, he has been acting sneaky. I'm also very puzzled, so I've been following him. It's just that I haven't figured out his intentions yet." Bing Wuqing nodded. It was precisely because of this that she had been able to save Leng Leng in time. Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence in such a huge place like the archaic trial grounds?

"He didn't notice you?" Lin Yi was a little surprised. The two of them were both at the peak of the gold core realm. Even if Bing Wuqing had a strong foundation, she shouldn't have been able to walk all the way without being detected. Xue Jianfeng wasn't an ordinary person, so his senses shouldn't be that slow, right?

"I have this." Bing Wuqing raised her hand, and an invisible ice thread was wrapped around the tip of her finger. It was connected to the direction that Xue Jianfeng had left in, and there was no doubt that the other end must be on Xue Jianfeng's body.

"No wonder." Lin Yi suddenly understood. With this heartless Ice Silk as a guide, Bing Wuqing only needed to stay far behind him. She didn't need to get close to the other party's perception range. As long as Xue Jianfeng didn't find out about this, she would never be able to escape his pursuit.

"Then, I ..." Bing Wuqing asked.

"Do as you wish. Continue to keep an eye on him. It just so happens that I'm also worried about this guy." Lin Yi waved his hand. Since Xue Jianfeng dared to attack Leng Leng and the others, it was inevitable that there would be a second time. With Bing Wuqing keeping an eye on him, he could put an end to this hidden danger. Besides, if Bing Wuqing kept following him, it would be troublesome if she was seen by others.

"Alright," he said. Bing Wuqing responded, but she didn't leave immediately. Instead, she turned to look at the other people present, and the first one to do so was Fei Yangwei, who was the closest to her.

At this time, health-maintenance Fei was also looking at him and Lin Yi with a face full of surprise. He was obviously stunned by the relationship between the two. Wasn't Bing Wuqing supposed to be Lin Yi's opponent? why did she look like Lin Yi's underling instead?
