On Cloud Mist Mountain, Yang Qingtian stood at the top and quietly looked into the distance.
His line of sight was in the direction of the Maple Forest Spatial Gate.
Beside him, Yang Qing's aura was fierce, and his body was like a sword as he also looked into the distance.
After a moment of silence, Yang Qingtian suddenly asked, "Why do you think they're acting this time?"
These days, all the major news had been dominated by Project King, but the sudden departure of Lin Feng's team still caused quite a stir in Shangjing and even the entire country.
They had just received the news and were also surprised and puzzled.
Wasn't it safest to stay in Shangjing when faced with a bounty from a foreign race?
What Guanglin had, Shangjing had as well, or even more.
With Lin Feng's team's strength, there wasn't much point in returning to Hongyun University.
Even if they really wanted to leave, why didn't they wait a few more months for the guardian artifact to recover its teleportation function?
What was so urgent that they had to act so quickly?
Everything was very illogical.
Apart from Bu Zheng, Yun Tianqi, and Ye Xing, the strongest person in Lin Feng's team was only at the sixth rank. How could they be so fearless in the face of such a huge bounty? One couldn't help but overthink.
"I don't know, but there must be a plan!" Yang Qing's gaze was slightly complicated as he said slowly.
For some reason, he recalled that sentence in his mind, "Are you still proud now?"
This sentence echoed in his ears from time to time this week, making him feel unusually irritated and humiliated.
"Perhaps."
Yang Qingtian smiled.
Although he didn't know the truth, judging from Yang Ningbing's reaction, the closure of the spatial gate in the Fringe was most likely related to Lin Feng.
It was even possible that Lin Feng was the one who closed it.
To be able to do this and hide it from everyone while keeping such a low profile proved that Lin Feng wasn't a reckless and stupid person.
He definitely had a plan for this sudden move, but what was it?
"Do you think he's deliberately baiting us?" Yang Qingtian guessed.
"Not very likely, but it's possible!"
Yang Qing said. If it was any other team, this guess would be very laughable.
But if it was Lin Feng's team, then it was very likely.
This was a group of extremely daring teams that had never failed before. Moreover, their battle records were glorious.
In the Bedlam Lands, even if they were Kings, they had killed ten to twenty of them. As for the other races, they had killed more than a thousand of them. There was nothing they did not dare to do.
However, what made Yang Qing puzzled was, was there a need to do this?
What good would that do?
"That girl Ning Bing actually hid it from us!"
Yang Qingtian said in a dissatisfied tone.
Obviously, Yang Ning Bing knew something about the Fringe's spatial gate closing, but she didn't tell them.
This time, she didn't inform them about her sudden departure. She didn't even inform her parents.
Just yesterday, she had taken many pills from her family, as well as a demonic spirit that contained a diamond soul skill.
It was clear that she did not intend to return to her family for the time being.
"It's good that he joined," Yang Qing said indifferently, not minding it at all.
Yang Qingtian didn't say anything else.
He approved of Yang Ningbing joining Linfeng's team.
Back then, he didn't pay much attention to this group of geniuses.
After all, the average age of Linfeng's team was 21 years old, and their strength was not considered strong.
It would take at least ten years for them to grow.
Ten years later, everyone's position and goals would be different. It was unknown if they would still be together.
This kind of situation was very common. However, with the addition of Ye Xing and Yun Tianqi, as well as their achievements in the Dimensional Space, this team had attracted the attention of various major forces.
Although this team didn't have a King, every member was a super genius with unlimited potential.
If it wasn't for the fact that the strength of the members wasn't strong enough, it would have already attracted the attention of various major forces.
There were only benefits for Yang Ningbing to join. Her strength had also increased very quickly. She was now a Peak Grade 6 Demon Spiritualist.
This strength was definitely rare among her peers. Very few people could compare to her. Just looking at her cultivation speed, she was even faster than Yang Qing.
At this moment, Yang Qingtian and Yang Qing didn't know that Yang Ningbing had already broken through to Grade 8 Grandmaster and became an 8-star Demon Spiritualist. If they knew, they would be shocked.
A 22-year-old Grandmaster expert, such a terrifying cultivation speed would definitely cause a sensation and shock the world.
This was also the reason why Linfeng's team didn't dare to reveal their strength.
… …
In a room, when Hong Tao and the other two found out about the actions of Linfeng's team, they stopped the meeting. Their expressions revealed a trace of curiosity. This was also out of their expectations.
According to the intelligence, many assassins and forces had already made their move. Even they felt that the current situation was troublesome.
In the face of such a huge bounty, not to mention Kings, even some Emperors would be tempted.
With such a huge amount of money, it would definitely attract a lot of monsters.
Presumably, all the assassins would be interested.
Furthermore, the five major forces of the foreign races would definitely not let go of this opportunity. Even if they didn't know that Linfeng was the one who closed the Spatial Gate, just by the number of foreign races killed by Linfeng's team, they wouldn't let this matter go.
When the time comes, Bu Zheng and the other two would only be able to protect themselves. How could they guarantee the safety of Linfeng's team?
One must know that an 8-star Spatial Gate could allow even Grade 9 experts to enter. The suppression wouldn't be too strong and there might even be a King.
A King appearing in an 8-star Spatial Gate and a King appearing in a Spatial Gate in the Land of Chaos were two different concepts. The danger was also incomparable.
In the Land of Chaos, Linfeng's team could easily kill a King as many as 20 people. However, in the Maple Forest Spatial Gate, it was almost impossible to kill a King.
"What are they going to do?
Are they only going back to Guanglin? "Xie Chun frowned and asked worriedly.
Starting from the Maple Forest Spatial Gate, they would be able to return to Guanglin after going through six Spatial Gates.
It wasn't strange that Linfeng's team returned to Guanglin, but why didn't they wait for a few more months? Why were they in such a hurry?
One must know that the journey would be fraught with danger.
As the biggest contributor to closing the Spatial Gate this time, she naturally didn't want to see anything happen to Linfeng's team.
However, she couldn't guess the purpose of Linfeng's team's sudden departure.
"For the time being, we don't know the purpose of Linfeng's team leaving Shangjing, and no one knew that Linfeng's team would suddenly take action today."
In front of Hong Tao and the other two, a man respectfully reported.
"Should we call them back?
Or send someone to protect them? "Xie Chun looked at Hong Tao and asked.
Chen Tiangeng also looked at Hong Tao, but didn't say anything.
"No need."
Hong Tao grabbed a large white teacup with red words and drank a mouthful of strong tea. He smiled and said, "Since they've already entered, there's no way to call them back easily. No matter what their purpose is, since they're fearless, they must be confident. Just send someone to keep an eye on them."
He didn't care about a team that didn't have a King.
Even if all of them died, he wouldn't feel any heartache.
However, he was a little curious. What was the purpose of Linfeng's team?
Was it just to return to Guanglin?
Or to fish?
To catch a big fish?
…
After entering the Maple Forest Spatial Gate, what appeared before Linfeng's eyes was a barren plain without any vegetation. From time to time, people would pass through the Spatial Gate and appear beside them or pass by them.
Due to the bounty, the team members felt that the strangers in front of them were looking at them with malicious and murderous eyes.
"Why do I feel that they all want to mess with us?"
As Yu Qiao spoke, he became excited.
"Speak properly!"
Yun Tianqi said discontentedly. However, the truth was that he was also excited, and his body was somewhat restless.
What kind of prey would they catch with this plan?
