The two cultivators who were standing guard outside didn’t dare to delay, so after responding, one of them walked inside and disappeared into the array.
The other person remained where he was. They were the Sect Master’s confidantes, they were the only ones who could enter the array behind them, but even they didn’t have the right to enter the cave dwelling. Even if they had something to report, they could only do it outside the cave dwelling.
The middle-aged man who had come forward watched as the cultivator went inside and his figure disappeared from their sight. His eyes flickered for a moment. Even people like them have never had the chance to go inside to look at this cave dwelling. They had no idea what it looked like inside.
Although they were curious, no one dared to venture inside as the Sect Master had issued a death order for anyone who dared to trespa.s.s!
Because of this, even though they were curious, they could only suppress their curiosity.
When Feng Jiu heard the voices outside, her figure flashed and in an instant, she disappeared into s.p.a.ce.
“Sect Master, Great Elder is here. He said that he has something to discuss with you.” The cultivator outside spoke, his voice contained a hint of spirit energy so that his voice would penetrate the stone door of the cave dwelling and transmit inside.
The Sect Master had been practicing the heart sutra, but as they were unable to capture the person who had infiltrated the Sect, he was unable to calm his mind. He tried several times but was still unable to enter the right state of mind. Therefore, he had no choice but to exhale and stood up. At this time, he heard the voice coming in from outside and frowned.
“I know, let him wait.” His voice drifted outside but he didn’t go out immediately. Instead, he waited for the cultivator outside to respond and leave before he walked out.
With a wave of his hand, the crutch that was lying on the side moved to his hand. He walked out step by step with his crutch until he came to the stone door and then he pressed the mechanism inside the stone door. After the stone door opened slowly, he walked out.
When he saw that the cultivator outside had left, he pressed the hidden grid on the stone wall outside and the stone door closed. After that, he walked out of the boundary barrier with one hand behind his back and stepped into the array, then he came outside.
“What’s wrong? Haven’t we already finished our discussion?” The old man looked at the person in front of him impatiently. If he still hadn’t caught the person, what was he doing here?
“Sect Master.” The middle-aged man bowed and said: “Everyone would like
Sect Master to go over again. We have a plan to lure the infiltrator out, so…’
Upon hearing this, the old man’s face was still gloomy. He didn’t say anything else other than: “Let’s go! This better solve the problem.”
The middle-aged man didn’t dare to say more but followed him instead.
After they left, Feng Jiu emerged from s.p.a.ce, then she walked towards the stone door. She thought about the hidden grid on the stone wall that the old man had pressed earlier. She searched for it for a while but was unable to find it, so she searched for it carefully again. Finally, the stone door opened.
Upon seeing the stone door open, Feng Jiu held her breath and walked inside. However, just as her foot stepped on the ground inside, cold arrows shot out from the walls on both sides.
She rushed forward immediately at once. Her figure swept forwards and avoided the cold arrows that shot out from either side. After a few breaths, the cold arrows stopped shooting out and the wall returned to its normal state, as if the mechanism had never been triggered.
“There are actually traps in here. The thing must be in here if the security is so high..”
