For eight years, no one had touched this formation.

  But today, it was abnormally frequent.

  The man seemed to have thought of something. His slender fingers picked up a round stone and placed it in front of him. After repeating this over and over again, a new formation formed.

  He raised his eyes and looked at the night sky. Seeing that it was about time, he stood up and left……

  Hua Wuyan and Yan Shuang waited for Qin Feng’s return at the inn. However, Qin Feng didn’t come back even after four o’clock in the afternoon. They found out that he was on the way after making a phone call.

  Therefore, they took the lead and arrived at the long bridge.

  The long bridge was the same as yesterday—half of it hidden in the fog.

  There were no sights of the mountains and trees.

  After sunset, Fu Tingyu and Han Xiao didn’t come out, nor did Qin Shu. The two of them were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

  Hua Wuyan paced back and forth to ease his anxiety. However, the more he waited, the more anxious he became. He suddenly stopped and said, “I can’t wait any longer. I’ll go in and take a look.”


  Yan Shuang was equally anxious. When she saw that Hua Wuyan was about to go in, she said, “Then I’ll go in with you to take care of you.”


  Hua Wuyan said, “You’d better stay outside. When Ling Feng gets here, it’ll be easier for you to explain the situation. Otherwise, Ling Feng will think that something has happened to all of us.”


  Although Yan Shuang knew that what he said made sense, she was anxious and could not wait.

  At this moment, a few people rushed over from afar.

  Qin Feng was leading.

  When Qin Feng went to Qingyun Manor, Yun Yao happened to be away from the manor to attend to some other matters. When he heard that Qin Feng was in a hurry, he rushed back.

  Therefore, this round trip wasted a day.

  Hua Wuyan saw that Qin Feng had arrived. He retracted his leg that had just been raised and swept a glance at the people behind him. He did not recognize any of them.

  He stepped forward to welcome him. “You’re finally back. Fu Tingyu, brother Han Xiao, and Ling Bao have not come out. I’m planning to go in and take a look.”


  Qin Feng ran all the way here. When he saw Hua Wuyan and Yan Shuang, he knew they were not out yet.

  He introduced, “He is Yun Yao, the manor head of Qingyun Manor. He knows a little about array formations.”


  Hua Wuyan greeted, “Hello, Mr. Yun.”


  “Hello, Mr. Yun.” Yan Shuang greeted politely.

  Qin Feng then introduced Yun Yao, “They are my friends, Hua Wuyan and Yan Shuang.”


  Yun Yao’s gaze turned to Hua Wuyan. It was the first time he saw a man with long hair who did not appear feminine and sissy. Instead, it added a little charm that was different from other men.

  Then, he looked at Yan Shuang. She was a mature woman and was very attractive.

  The two of them did not look like ordinary offsprings of wealthy families.

  “Nice to meet you.”


  Hua Wuyan looked at Yun Yao. His appearance was not inferior to brother Han’s, not to mention his temperament. As the head of a manor, he should be calm and reserved.

  But did he look at them with a cynical smile?

  He could not help but ask, “Do you know about array formations? Can you bring us into the mountains to find our friends?”


  Yun Yao raised his head and looked at the long bridge behind Hua Wuyan. The fog covered half the bridge. The mountains and the trees were not visible.

  He immediately retracted his gaze and looked at Hua Wuyan. “I only know a little bit about formations. I can bring you in. I can’t guarantee anything else.”


  “Let’s go in. Qin Feng couldn’t bother about anything else. It was better to have someone who knew about formations than none of them. I’m afraid that my friends will be in danger.”


  Yun Yao glanced at Hua Wuyan and then looked at Qin Feng. “Then let’s go in.”


  Yun Yao brought six people with him. All of them were tall and well-built, and their skills were extraordinary.

  This time, they were going in together.

  Qin Feng was the first to step onto the long bridge. As he was worried about their safety, his footsteps were a little hurried, and he did not bother about what kind of danger they would encounter once they entered.

  Hua Wuyan hurriedly followed.

  Yun Yao stepped onto the long bridge almost simultaneously as Hua Wuyan. He turned to look at Hua Wuyan’s long hair tied behind him. It was flax-colored, with slightly curled ends. Not only was it good-looking, but it had an invisible charm to it.

  Even a hairstylist could not produce such a good effect.

  He looked at Hua Wuyan curiously. “How long have you kept your beautiful hair?”


  Hua Wuyan’s hair often made people turn their heads, but no one would ask this question.

  However, when he remembered that Yun Yao was here to help, he answered politely, “I don’t remember the exact time.”


  Yun Yao kept guessing. “I guess six or seven years.”


  Hua Wuyan turned to look at Yun Yao. His expression was calm as if he had just said it casually. He replied, “Maybe.”


  The bridge was thirty meters long. The group of ten walked into the fog after a short while, as if they had disappeared on the bridge. The scene was bizarre.

  When they reappeared, they were already at the other end of the bridge. Right in front were messy bushes and weeds.

  Yun Yao glanced at the scene. “One step forward is tin array formation. Everyone, be careful.”


  Hua Wuyan glanced at Yun Yao. Seeing how serious he sounded, he could not help but believe that Yun Yao knew a little about array formations. He might be able to find brother Han, Ling Bao, and Fu Tingyu.

  After hearing Yao’sao’s words, everyone became cautious.

  Yun Yao reminds “It’s best to keep up with the pace when you walk. Otherwise, you will get separated from the rest as we are now in the array formation.”


  Yun Yao was not joking. He was telling the truth. It was very easy for accidents to happen in the formation. No one could predict that.

  Therefore, the group of people became even more cautious.

  At this time, the sky was already completely dark, and the forest was pitch-black.

  Each of them had a lamp in their hands. The light from the incandescent lamp lit up the pitch-black night sky.

  After walking for about an hour, Qin Feng turned around and looked. He realized that the number of people was not correct. There were ten of them in the group.

  He was afraid that he had seen wrongly, so he counted again and found that there were only eight people left, and two went missing”.

  “Be careful.” Yun Yao saw Hua Wuyan walking to the right and hurriedly grabbed his wrist, “That’s the death door.”


  Hua Wuyan jumped in fright. He had just lifted his feet when Yun Yao grabbed him and pulled him back.

  Qin Feng reminded him, “Two people are missing.”


  Hua Wuyan heard this and turned to look. After a rough count, he realized that two people were missing. When he thought about how he almost got lost just now, he felt a lingering fear in his heart.

  Yun Yao did not turn around as it was useless to look. Instead, he said, “Continue walking.”


  When all heard this, they could only follow Yun Yao and continue walking forward”.

  “I wonder how Ling Bao is now? and brother Han Xiao and the others.” Hua Wuyan looked at the pitch-black night sky and said worriedly.

  Qin Feng was worried, but he did not say anything.

  Yun Yao ” It’s hard to say anything now. Maybe we could meet them.”


  Yan Shuang was also worried, but there was nothing she could do. She could only follow Yun Yao and take things one step at a time.

  4:30 am

  The moon was bright, and the stars were sparse.

  At the entrance on top of the mountain, Qin Shu lifted her head and looked at the stone tablet next to her. There were four big red words carved on it — the forbidden area of the Celestial Sect.

  She held on the stone tablet with one hand for support and panted, “I’ve finally reached the mountain peak…… I wonder if Master is on the mount” in?”
