1040: Chapter 640 1040: Chapter 640 After arriving in the north, Huang Lei and his people did not keep their distance; they stayed away from Tang Feiyang’s and other teams’ camps!
They lodged at an inn from afar, waiting for news!
Even though Huang Lei knew they were lodging at an inn, when they were close to the Demonic Beast tide and wanted to scout personally, they still used Earth Escape and invisibly lurked around!
When they discovered that there were also people with weak abilities lurking around!
Unsure if they were official personnel or individuals with ulterior motives, and unfamiliar with them, they could not let themselves be detected by these individuals, and thus they also lurked from a distance!
Huang Lei observed those people in the sky possessing immense oppressive might; the light emitted by their work made him realize from afar that this was a Formation technique they had yet to learn.
His family also had Array Masters, but it required someone to fully dedicate themselves to the research, unlike the people in the sky, who seemed to possess such abilities individually!
Could this be genius?
Huang Lei and his family members lurked for several days, trying to identify some individuals; they recognized only a few, those from families of Immortal Lord City!
Having witnessed these individuals’ abilities, they wished more than anything to possess such powers themselves; how did these individuals cultivate to become so powerful?
Could this be the Cultivation Technique that everyone learns upon entering the Saint Sect?
Huang Lei, along with his brothers and other family members, stared with envy and jealousy at the people they recognized in the high sky!
The danger within their hearts grew stronger as they watched the sky with resentful eyes!
The Human Immortals high above noticed that there were quite a few individuals with low abilities arriving, but as long as these individuals did not come to cause trouble, the Human Immortals would let them observe from the periphery without interference!
In addition to closely monitoring the Demonic Beast movements, they also had to pay attention to the evolving situation since this was, after all, a border area!
With the western Demonic Beasts on the move, there’s no guarantee that the westerners wouldn’t take this opportunity to strike a blow to Ancient Xia Country.
Official messages indicated that the bordering nation was a friendly country, with their trade caravans coming and going with relative ease!
The neighboring country being small might not dare to invade their country!
But who can guarantee that there are no ambitious individuals in the neighboring country?
Could they also take advantage of the Demonic Beast chaos to create discord?
Why have the western Demonic Beasts, who haven’t stirred trouble for thousands of years, emerged now?
While Du Jiaolan focused on the individuals in the high sky, she occasionally spotted a figure; with her sharp eyes, wasn’t that Tang Feiyang?
Could Confucian cultivators also ascend to the sky?
With this question in mind, Du Jiaolan continued to closely monitor the people in the sky, only to find that the carriages and tents remained stationary in one spot, sometimes very quiet, but noisy during meal times when they made fire to cook, with Young Masters being served by guards!
They didn’t seem to show any other distinguishing features, nor could she see any ability to fly among them!
Could it be that Tang Feiyang, as the representative of this group, was meeting with people from the Imperial Capital?
She had also seen Ye Shi, who had once played his hand, attempting to entice this man!
Ye Shi, the second son from the Ye Family in the Imperial Capital, the Guardian General of General’s Mansion, and brother to Ye Tian, she thought he might be even fiercer than Tang Feiyang!
Initially, she had her heart set on seducing Tang Feiyang, but later, as part of the organization’s plan, she aimed to lure Ye Shi.
Unexpectedly, this man was so powerful, she underestimated him and missed the opportunity, nearly exposing her identity!
The Ye Family had also arrived here; it seemed they had a united front in mind!
Now was not the time for Du Jiaolan to seduce or reminisce but to avoid being recognized by others!
Someone reported to Yingzi that, not far from their location, in a nearby town, several groups had arrived, including some wealthy young masters who were spending lavishly in an inn!
“Go find out who they are?” Yingzi’s attention was diverted by the talk of the young masters mentioned by her subordinates!
The first thing she thought was, if these wealthy young masters were incapable, could they be controlled?
Controlling these individuals would be beneficial for their team, and could even strengthen their plans!
She had a private desire: could stylish men be of use to her?
Yingzi had lived a decadent life; over the past month, she hadn’t stopped desiring that particular aspect, but realized she had fallen ill.
During her travels, she would use her Medicine knowledge whenever encountering a drugstore, obtaining medicinals to self-treat her illness!
She had thought about it before, whether ill or not, she could still contaminate others!
Later, she found being sick too unbearable, especially in the snowy weather; it wasn’t pleasant!
Seeing the men who had tested her before, she indeed wanted to contaminate them, but now she had ensnared them as her followers!
Among these female soldiers, they had become Scouts and loyal guardians!
Huang Lei had dinner in the inn’s hall; the inn had no private rooms, and the guests could choose to dine in their rooms.
With so many of them and to avoid being too conspicuous, they chose to eat in the hall.
The Young Masters, accompanied by guards, had tables set for themselves and their attendants, ordering a lavish dinner from the host!
In the chilly snowy weather, they asked for plates of meat, seemingly without concern for expenses.
The innkeeper, wary of their possible pretense, insisted on a deposit for lodging and immediate payment for meals, not allowing them to dine on credit!
