Chapter 194 The Invisible Tracking

Even if we take a step back and assume that after receiving the order, one should summon subordinates to relay the instructions instead of recklessly charging into the front lines oneself.

This will lead to very different results.

You should know that those standing under the city gate that night were all our own compatriots!

In such a situation, not only would he want to avoid it, but even Zhu Xian would want to avoid it like the plague!

At this point, keeping a safe distance is the most basic action for a person with normal intelligence, but instead of avoiding it, he kept charging ahead.

It's truly a case of "even the King of Hell can't stop a ghost that's courting death!"

It should be noted that many of the people who participated in the rally below the city that night had close kinship ties with the guards who were defending the city.

After all, who doesn't have a relative who's an official?

And wasn't Zhu Xian's order precisely to force these guards to kill their own flesh and blood?

Such a cruel and ruthless order, whether issued by the person in charge or relayed by the person in charge, will inevitably be met with the wrath of the masses afterward.

It is no exaggeration to say that, with just this one order from Ling Sheng, he simultaneously offended both the crowd gathered below the city and the guards on the city wall.

Moreover, this kind of offense is not an ordinary offense, but an offense that is irreconcilable and leaves no room for maneuver!

Just how stupid does one have to be to do something so absurd and brainless?

Incredibly, however, the spirits not only did this, but they also carried out the entire process of sending messages and relaying orders thoroughly, leaving no way out.

Even if Zhu Xian didn't need to quell the crowd's anger and killed him, someone like him would inevitably be put to death by the people who lost their loved ones that night.

Despite having such an incurably foolish son, Ling Qi still cherished and protected him like a precious treasure back then.

Looking back now, it's both laughable and pathetic!

Therefore, whenever he looked at his good-for-nothing son, his gaze always seemed particularly strange.

After successfully absorbing three divine pills once again, Ling Qi finally broke free from the shackles that had long bound his cultivation.

Although this was only a small breakthrough to the first level, it was still an extremely rare achievement for him, who had not made any progress in his cultivation for ten whole years.

Kuang Zheng watched quietly as Ling Qi turned and left once again, full of resentment, his eyes darting around.

He pondered to himself: Should he immediately ignite this powder keg that was about to explode?

After all, according to the original plan, it was already time to execute this final, crucial step...

However, what worries him is the period of interruption, especially in the last few days.

He always had a strange intuition—that there was a pair of eyes secretly watching him.

Therefore, he has repeatedly turned around unexpectedly to check the surrounding situation, and even suddenly used all his spiritual energy to sense it, but each time he found nothing.

Nevertheless, the strange feeling of being watched did not fade away with the passage of time; on the contrary, it became stronger and more obvious.

Especially today, Kuang Zheng is even certain that the faint aura is right behind him.

But whenever he concentrated on trying to explore this aura further, it would vanish without a trace, like a puff of smoke.

This feeling made Kuang Zheng feel extremely frustrated.

And that's why the crucial final step that was originally planned to be taken has been delayed.

Kuang Zheng was filled with doubt and unease about the mysterious aura that he could never quite grasp, so he dared not make any rash moves.

Meanwhile, the crimson shadow, who was secretly observing him, was also filled with disbelief.

He clearly sensed an aura lurking in Noguchi Ridge. But every time he tried to grasp it, it would mysteriously vanish.

After this happened several times, Lei Mang finally lost his patience.

At their hiding place, Lei Mang asked unhappily, "Hey old fox, are you even capable? Didn't you say you were good at location tracking? How come it's been days and you haven't found a single hair?"

Chiying was clearly encountering this situation for the first time: "It seems we've met a master this time, but don't worry, it'll be over soon. I'm about to rescue him."

"Hmph! You've said that at least ten times already," Lei Mang said, displeased.

Chi Ying was not offended by this. He just smiled and then devoted himself to the location tracking again.

Kuang Zheng, filled with suspicion, was completely unaware of the two's covert pursuit. While he was intently observing Ling Qi's attempt to break through his bottleneck, Zhu Xian on the other side inexplicably fell into an extremely strange state.

Zhu Xian, who was resting with her eyes closed, suddenly seemed to be possessed, her lips trembling slightly as if she were muttering something that was difficult for others to understand.

What's really strange is that Zhu Xian's lips are opening and closing rapidly, and the frequency of the movement is astonishing. But what's puzzling is that such intense lip movements don't produce even the slightest sound!

Not only that, but even the already extremely weak airflow in front of him seemed to be completely undisturbed.

This scene is truly unbelievable.

This extremely bizarre situation lasted for a full quarter of an hour.

Just when everyone thought this abnormality would continue indefinitely, Zhu Xian suddenly seemed to wake up from a nightmare and returned to normal in the blink of an eye.

His expression looked exactly the same as before, as if everything he had just experienced was just an illusion, and everything seemed so natural and logical.

However, if someone were to calm down and take a closer look, they would not find it difficult to perceive that beneath Zhu Xian's seemingly calm face lay a raging fire about to erupt.

At this moment, the flames of anger burning in his eyes seemed poised to burst free from their sockets and incinerate everything around them...

Just now, Akakage had used a secret technique to tell him about the infiltration of outsiders into Noguchi Pass.

Thinking back on all the targeting I've been subjected to lately, I initially thought it was my own people causing trouble, but I never imagined it was an invasion by an external enemy!

OK!

Excellent!

Zhu Xian screamed angrily in her heart.
