Chapter 1581: Chapter 1581: This is impossible, right?
“Master, someone has locked their spiritual power onto you,”
In the s.p.a.ce, Wei Na also felt it and found it somewhat unbelievable. How could there be someone waiting in the Five Elements Domain? Were they waiting for Xiang Qiyan, or someone else?
“I’ve sensed it.”
An Jiuyue’s eyes darkened as she spoke.
“Brother Beiye, be careful, we’ve been targeted,”
She cautiously approached Zhan Beiye and whispered a warning.
Upon hearing her reminder, Zhan Beiye was startled— not because he was afraid, but because he found it odd, for he hadn’t felt any unfamiliar presence.
Perhaps this also had to do with the environment they were in, after all, they were within the Five Elements Domain.
“No one dares to make a move in the Five Elements Domain,” he said.
Who would dare act within the Five Elements Domain? That would surely be seeking death, and moreover, those who could enter the Five Elements Domain were not any kind of formidable powers.
Only those who could enter Huayan Peak were able to step into the Five Elements Domain. Thus, the person who was watching them likely had a cultivation level just a little bit higher than theirs.
“Mm.”
An Jiuyue naturally understood this principle.
But she still had to be cautious; if that person kept watching them, it would not be guaranteed that they would not attract stronger individuals. They themselves could manage, for escaping was always an option, but Xiang Qiyan couldn’t.
Even carrying him carefully, she feared they might harm him. What would happen if he had to escape with them?
“The moment we leave the Five Elements Domain, kill that person,” she said, her gaze steely.
Zhan Beiye took a deep breath and nodded in agreement with her suggestion.
The person who dared to come here and watch them would certainly not be allowed to live; there was only one possible outcome.
“Let’s move forward, you follow behind me.”
Not far from where An Jiuyue and her group were, a pair of eyes was closely watching them.
He had been ordered to watch the Five Elements Domain and to keep an eye on Xiang Qiyan as soon as he was seen to ensure that he wouldn’t be lost again.
As for Huayan Peak, his master could go there too, but didn’t dare. If he went to Huayan Peak to a.s.sa.s.sinate Xiang Qiyan, that would reveal his own position and would not be a worthwhile trade.
After seeing Xiang Qiyan being carried, he had intended to leave quickly.
However, he saw those two strangers, people he had never seen before with Xiang Qiyan.
If they were just two ordinary people, it would be nothing special. After all, not every person by Xiang Qiyan’s side was someone he knew. But by the looks of these two individuals’ clothing, that clearly was not the case.
“Where did these two come from?”
Where in the Xiang Dynasty were there such individuals? If they were indeed close to Xiang Qiyan, there was no reason he shouldn’t have seen them before.
“They came… from Huayan Peak?”
Considering this possibility, his eyes flickered with disbelief.
Could these two be from Huayan Peak? Since when could people from Huayan Peak, apart from those from the Feather Abyss Plane, come to their plane?
That’s impossible, right?
Unless, one of the two was an inter-plane traveler.
But even inter-plane travelers couldn’t directly bring people into other planes, at least that was something he was aware of.
And just now, he had watched this group emerge together from the vortex. So what exactly were the ident.i.ties of these two? Were they part of Xiang Qiyan’s entourage?
“Impossible, if Lord Yaan had such people by his side, my master would have found out.”
