To the north of Jinyuan City, there was a green lake near a mine.
Due to the mining of the mine, a lot of mineral powder flowed into the lake along with the rainwater. This made the lake rich in minerals and nourished some special fish.
A young man with red lips and white teeth was sitting by the lakeside fishing with a bamboo hat on his face.
The young man was Su Chen's avatar, Yu Tianheng.
Beside him, there were a few other fishing buddies.
"Wu Da, Jinyuan City will probably be very chaotic these few days. Let's not go back and fish here for ten days to half a month. We'll go back and sell our fish after the storm has calmed down."
The one who spoke was a man with a brandy nose. There was a large wine gourd hanging around his neck. He looked drunk, but his fishing technique was still seasoned and pure. In a short while, he had already caught more than a dozen fish.
The Wu Da he spoke of was a burly man with thick limbs and bronze-colored skin. His hands were extremely rough and he looked like a miner from the nearby mine.
He purposely lowered his voice and said, "It's not as simple as you think. The mess this time is no small matter. I heard that Old Master Feng is really angry this time and wants to publicly oppose the Sect Leader on his 5000th birthday. I also heard a rumor that the Sect Leader will also come to attend Old Master Feng's birthday. When the time comes, there might be a fight. If there really is a fight, then the Immortal Dawn Sect will be completely shaken. Don't talk about ten days or eight months, I reckon that all of us will have to escape."
"Burp …"
The brandy nose burped and his entire person sobered up. He frowned and said, "Is it really that serious?
Old Master Feng is such a smart person. Why would he suddenly challenge the Sect Leader? The Sect Leader is not someone to be trifled with. "
"Who knows? The thoughts of those big shots are not something we can recklessly guess. Anyway, I've already said this. I won't go home until the situation has completely calmed down. Fortunately, I'm single and have a whole family. Brother, you're different. You have parents and children. I advise you to quickly go home and bring your family out before the situation becomes chaotic. That's the safest way."
"This … Wu Da, you're right. It's better to be safe than sorry. I'll go back now and give these fish to you."
Brandy Nose threw down his fishing rod and ran away in a hurry.
Wu Da shook his head and smiled bitterly. Suddenly, he said to Su Chen beside him, "Brother, aren't you going home?
Now that the world isn't peaceful, it's easy for a delicate little fellow like you to encounter danger. "
Su Chen smiled. "Thank you for your kindness, brother. I still want to catch a few more fish."
Since they were unrelated, the martial arts universities did not want to continue persuading them. They continued to fish on their own.
In the blink of an eye, the sky turned dark. The martial arts university was full of rewards. He got up and stretched, preparing to return to the mine to eat and rest. Before he left, he glanced at Su Chen, only to see that he had not even caught a single fish. He was as still as a statue, as if he was meditating.
Wu Da thought about it and went forward to remind him out of kindness. "Brother, it's not safe here at night. Monsters often come out at night. If you don't have anywhere to go, why don't you come back to the mine with me? There's a lot of construction going on recently, so there aren't many people in the mine. There are many places for people to stay."
Wu Da looked like a burly man, but deep down, he was quite warm-hearted. He was really worried that Su Chen would encounter some danger if he stayed here alone.
Su Chen was about to reject him when he suddenly sensed an obscure wave of Spiritual Power coming from the north.
It was the direction of the mine.
Su Chen got up and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
Wu Da did not smile, or rather, he was not good at expressing himself. He only nodded and went forward to lead the way.
To the north of Jinyuan City, there were more than ten mines of various sizes. Many of the mountains had been hollowed out, and there were mines of various sizes everywhere. Under the watering of the rainwater, lakes of different depths had formed, containing many minerals. Some of the lakes even shone brilliantly under the night sky. It was quite a beautiful sight.
After walking for fifteen minutes, Wu Da led Su Chen to a small mine. Many miners usually lived here, and there was a small town. However, there were not many people now. The town was dark, and there were only a dozen people's auras.
"Wu Da, who's this?"
Under the dark eaves, a voice suddenly came from a person.
It was a dark-skinned man who had completely blended in with the night.
"My nephew. He has nowhere to go, so he's staying with me for the night."
"You have such a delicate nephew?
Forget it, let's go in. "
The security of large mines was usually very strict, and outsiders were not allowed to enter or leave. However, this mine was already in its later years, and there were not many ores worth mining, so naturally, they were not so particular about it.
Wu Da led them into the town and randomly chose an empty house. He said to Su Chen, "Make do with it for the night. The bedding is ready-made, but it's a little dirty."
"It's fine, thank you."
Wu Da glanced at Su Chen and said, "Little brother, no matter why you ran away from home, you have a family to rely on. You should go back soon."
After saying that, Wu Da put down a bag of braised pork and left.
Su Chen was stunned.
Was Wu Da treating him like a lost teenager who had run away from home?
Alright, he did look like that.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Su Chen picked up the braised pork on the table, ate it, and waited quietly.
The spiritual force just now had suddenly appeared and disappeared, but Su Chen was sure that he was still nearby.
Judging from his aura, this person's cultivation was at the peak of the Sky Pillar realm, and he was most likely a Blue Dragon Guard.
The Blue Dragon Guard must have some plan for suddenly appearing in a place like this.
After waiting for two hours, if the other party still did not appear, he would take the initiative to look for him.
The braised pork entered his mouth and was quite fragrant and chewy, but the meat was a little strange.
"Why do I feel like it's a little similar to the bamboo rat meat Ye Beibei gave me before …"
Forget it, it was not bad to try it once in a while.
The sky was completely dark. Dark clouds covered the sky, and the moon and stars could not be seen. It seemed like it was going to rain.
After about 15 minutes, that spiritual force fluctuation appeared again.
Su Chen put down the braised pork and teleported away in a flash.
"It really is a Blue Dragon Guard."
Su Chen floated in the air and saw a Blue Dragon Guard fly out of an abandoned mine, heading straight for Jinyuan City.
There was a strange smell coming from the mine.
Su Chen did not give chase immediately. Instead, he activated a divine pattern and secretly followed the Blue Dragon Guard. Then, he flew into the mine.
As Su Chen went deeper into the mine, the pungent smell of poisonous gas kept coming.
Of course, this poisonous gas did not pose a threat to Su Chen, but it was considered a more dangerous poisonous gas. Normal Reincarnation Realm cultivators might not be able to withstand it.
Moreover, there was a lot of it. The poisonous gas kept coming out from the bottom of the mine as if it had just been released by someone.
As luck would have it, the north wind was blowing tonight.
Once this poisonous gas floated out of the mine, it would go straight for Jinyuan City!
