Chapter 2446: Hearsay
âMm hmm.â Feng Ye nodded.
âIt is not suitable for you two little kids to go there because it is chaotic recently. Didnât you say that you have relatives in Hundred Rivers City? Why donât I send you to Hundred Rivers City!â
âNo, no.â Feng Ye waved his little hand. âWeâll go by ourselves. Moreover, we donât intend to take the main road or come near it. Weâll just look at it from a distance, so there wonât be a danger.â
Since Feng Ye insisted on going to the Nebula Immortal Sect, Xu Yan was silent for a while and then said, âIn that case, Iâll send you there!â
Feng Ye blinked. âButâŠâ
âSince weâve accepted the task, we have to finish it. Even if you change the place, we will get you there safely.â Xu Yan did not give him a chance to speak. He stood up and turned to his brothers behind him.
All the mercenaries nodded in agreement. It did not seem right to let the boys go to the Nebula Immortal Sectâs boundary by themselves, especially when they had taken such a generous commission from him.
Seeing this, Feng Ye said nothing. Having the mercenaries to protect them would be much better than going alone, but he was worried that the Thunderfire Mercenary Groupâs men would be killed if they encountered devilry cultivators again.
âI know there is a shortcut to the Nebula Immortal Sectâs boundary. Letâs rest here tonight and start early tomorrow morning!â Xu Yan told Feng Ye.
âYes.â Feng Ye nodded. âThen, please collect your commission fees first!â
Xu Yan didnât refuse and took the commission fees.
That day, they first replenished the dry foods and then had the men buy some medicine to treat knife wounds and so on for safeguard. After a nightâs rest at the inn, the party set off at dawn.
Meanwhile, dressed in an undistinguished azure robe, Feng Jiu arrived at the boundary of Nebula Immortal Sect. Instead of using the teleportation device directly to the Nebula Immortal Sectâs gate, she first walked around this area and laid some boundaries and arrays.
When she was resting in a tree to enjoy the cool, she heard some voices faintly.
âHow strange, Our Nebula Immortal Sect doesnât have these many arrays and boundaries! Why did we encounter quite a few formation arrays after coming out with Senior Uncle this time? If Senior Uncle wasnât watching, Iâm afraid weâd all be trapped in the array. I have no idea who laid them. Those arrays are not easy to break.â
âI heard Master said that many people have been sent out to patrol around the area for precaution and deterrence. However, other than encountering these arrays and boundaries, we havenât seen anyone from the Demon Clan these days.â
âIs it possible that the news is wrong? Could the Demon Clan not pick our Nebula Immortal Sect to attack?â
âImpossible, this source of information canât be wrong. Allegedly, itâs the news given to us by Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu of the Hundred River Cityâs Heavenly Pill Tower. It canât be wrong.â
âSpeaking of this Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu, I heard that she is the Phoenix Star in Old Man Tianjiâs prophecy. It is said that if there is a war with the Demon Clan, only with the assistance of Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu will we have the strength to battle with the Demon Clan.â
âBut I hear that sheâs a woman. No matter how strong a woman is, isnât it impossible for her to defeat the Demon Lord alone? The Demon Lord, who has not been out of the clan for over a hundred years, now appears. Itâs been said that there will be bloodbath and massacre all over the continent..â
