But with so many eyes on him, especially with Xue Jianfeng there, Lin Yi didn't say anything. He only made eye contact.
"Senior granduncle, are you sure you want to bring them to the ancient lake?" Xin Yijie confirmed with Lin Yi. Other than Leng Leng, Lingshan, Ziyu, Chentian, qikun, and qijiu were also with Lin Yi. As for Yutian, Yu Bing, and the others, they decided to stay after some consideration.
Chen Yutian and Yu Dake were taking care of the unconscious girls.
"Can 't?" Lin Yi raised a brow.
"No, no, no, how can it not work? to be able to have so many good seedlings with unlimited potential all of a sudden, this is the blessing of our blue cloud School in the North Island. I can't be happier. How can it not work!" Xin Yijie couldn't hide his excitement. He had seen the outstanding performance of song Lingshan and the others in the competition. In terms of potential, they were much higher than lie yingzu and the others. This was a good seedling that he could place his hopes on.
"That's good. " Lin Yi nodded and said goodbye to Yu Bing and the others. He entered the teleportation formation with the other ancient Alliance disciples and started the teleportation.
In an instant, a large group of people were teleported at the same time. The scene in front of them changed. All they could see was a vast sea of clouds, and under their feet was a mountain that reached the sky. The teleportation formation was located at the top of the mountain.
The other archaic Alliance disciples didn't react differently. After all, they were from here, and they were teleported here before. However, to song Lingshan and the others, this was a new experience. This was their first time Crossing Worlds!
"This Cloud Mist is a little powerful." Lin Yi frowned after some observation-the clouds here felt like the sea fog on Sky Class Island, and it affected his spirit sense greatly. Even he couldn't sense very far.
"It's more than just powerful. This is the most famous mountain of clouds and sea of mist in the entire small Jianghu of the immemorial era. It's an out-and-out forbidden area. Now, it's already at its thinnest. If it were any other time, we wouldn't even be able to see what's beneath us, let alone teleport up the mountain. We don't know where we're going." Xin Yijie explained.
"Oh? Then what should we do next?" Lin Yi asked.
"Let's go down the mountain. There are aerial spirit beasts prepared at the foot of the mountain. They should return to the middle Island, back to the Middle Island. We should return to the North Island, back to the North Island." Xin Yijie said.
Xin Yijie led the way in front while everyone followed silently behind. Although they could barely see a few meters, it wasn't easy to go down the steep mountain. Even though everyone was at least Foundation establishment experts, if they accidentally stepped on unstable rocks, they would probably die.
Even if everyone was trying their best to walk deeper in, it wasn't foolproof. The mountain winds were extremely fierce, and if they weren't careful, they would be blown down. Thus, they had to be extremely careful with every step they took. They didn't want to throw their lives in the danger-ridden ancient trial grounds. If they ended up dying here, they would really die with everlasting regret.
The mountain path was narrow, so it was inevitable that everyone would be pulled very long. They couldn't be too far away from each other, or they would lose the traces of their predecessors, but they couldn't be too close either, or they could easily kill each other if they were to push each other when the wind was strong.
Lin Yi's group followed behind Xin Yijie and the other Qingyun disciples. Wu Chengtian was at the back, but after realizing that it was Xue Jianfeng, Lin Yi changed his position.
Xue Jianfeng was obviously up to no good-even Lin Yi wouldn't be able to react in time if he were to do something bad here. He had to nip the threat in the bud.
"Get lost!" Lin Yi's voice was suddenly imprinted in Xue Jianfeng's mind, giving him a shock. He almost lost his life on the spot.
Xue Jianfeng glared at Lin Yi, but the aftershock from the soul-devouring hand had him scared out of his wits. He didn't have the guts to turn on Lin Yi right now, and so he retreated.
After Xue Jianfeng had retreated, the person who followed closely behind was none other than Bing Wuqing.
"How is it? The Gu poison hasn't acted up yet?" Lin Yi said through divine sense. This was the first time he had spoken to Bing Wuqing after returning from the ancient trial grounds.
"No, I didn 't," Bing Wuqing replied. The last time she saw Lin Yi and Duanmu Yu being kicked into the river of consciousness, she had been worried about it. In the end, she realized that the Gu poison was much more stable than she had imagined, and there was no sign of an outbreak.
"It seems that the old man's skills are better than mine. If I were to cast the Gu, you might have already died from the poison." Lin Yi said faintly.
Bing Wuqing's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, but she didn't show it on her face. Without changing her expression, she asked the question he was most concerned about,""Under what circumstances will the poison take effect?"
"That depends on when I let the poison take effect. You don't have to worry about that, unless you turn a blind eye to it again." Lin Yi paused and smiled. "How's the half spirit sense grass?"
Bing Wuqing was shocked. She would never have thought that Lin Yi would know about this!
In fact, it was understandable if Lin Yi didn't know about this at the beginning. However, after he heard from Xue Jianfeng that Bing Wuqing had given him half of it, he would be too slow if he didn't realize it.
Xue Jianfeng wasn't a fool. He wouldn't show off his possession of the consciousness grass in front of anyone, especially when it was an equally matched expert like Bing Wuqing. The fact that Bing Wuqing was able to get half of the consciousness grass was proof enough. He must have seen it with his own eyes when Xue Jianfeng had obtained the consciousness grass. In other words, he had seen with his own eyes how Xue Jianfeng had kicked Duanmu Yu and himself into the consciousness River, and he hadn't stopped them from the beginning.
"I ..." Bing Wuqing opened her mouth, but didn't say anything in the end. She wasn't a glib-tongued person, and what Lin Yi said was the truth. Trying to explain would only make things worse.
"I'm not very patient, but I still have a little. Don't do it again." Lin Yi warned her. He had subdued Bing Wuqing with threats and promises, and there wasn't any real loyalty or trust between them. It wasn't strange for this to happen, and Lin Yi wouldn't give up on such an important chess piece like Bing Wuqing just because of this. However, he had to at least give her a little push, in case she went overboard.
"Thank you," he said. Bing Wuqing heaved a sigh of relief. Strictly speaking, she didn't really want to betray Lin Yi at that time. It was just that he didn't have time to react when it happened. To be more precise, he hesitated and didn't stop it in time. However, no matter what, from Lin Yi's point of view, what he did was a betrayal, and he had nothing to say about it.
