Just Wanting to Live Well but Surpassing the Protagonist – 98 Beware of Fraud

With the help of the treasure, his aura was extremely weak, and his presence was extremely low. Ye Yong quietly followed behind the team. Besides him, there were also some small and medium-sized sects who had gotten wind of the news. The news Ruo Ji Sect, where Bao Longtao belonged, was one of the small and medium-sized sects. The sect master was only at the late stage of the Golden Core Realm, while Bao Longtao, who was at the early stage of the Golden Core Realm , was considered a leader figure within the sect. Not all sects were as prestigious as the Tian Luo Sect. There were countless sects like the Ruo Ji Sect that did not even have a Void Refinement expert.

Ye Yong observed several groups of followers. The highest cultivation level was the late stage of the Golden Core Realm, which posed no threat to the team led by the City Lord. It was no wonder that the City Lord and the others would tacitly allow them to follow.

Being followed by people weaker than oneself was not a bad thing. Lingyou Mountain was still very dangerous. Once an emergency occurred, these weak followers would be excellent bait.

Qi Rong City was quite a distance from Lingyou Mountain. The City Lord and the others did not use any conspicuous flying instruments, but chose to go on foot. However, the lowest cultivation level in the team was the eighth level of the Nascent Soul Realm , so even though they were on foot, their speed was not slow at all. If there were no Nascent Souls, the team would have moved even faster.

As for why there were Nascent Souls in the team, they were actually young people who had come out to see the world. Without exception, they were all rich children from Qi Rong City, or descendants of some sect elder. They had almost no role to play in this capture operation.

The main force of the spirit fox capture was the Golden Cores. The City Lord, who was at the mid-stage of the Void Refinement Realm, was responsible for controlling the field. The division of labor was very clear.

Ye Yong followed behind, thinking that he was well hidden and that no one had discovered him. Little did he know that there were three beautiful figures following behind him. It was a real-life version of the mantis stalking the cicada, the oriole behind (the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it) story.

———Four days ago

“This city is much smaller than the Chengying City we were in before.” The wooden hairpin handmaiden looked at the passersby and the surrounding buildings. Both the number of people and the scale of the buildings were vastly different.

“It’s better with fewer people. It’s annoying to see people everywhere.” The feather ornament handmaiden seemed to hate humans, her face full of disgust.

In the middle of them, Miss Wu, dressed in plain green and wearing a veil, held a compass-shaped magic treasure in her hand. There was a flashing light spot on it.

“Ye Yong shouldn’t come to such a small city, right?” The wooden hairpin handmaiden watched as the light spot got closer and closer. She felt that it was very likely that the ordinary-looking Tian Luo Sect disciple from before had become greedy, triggered the Star-Chasing Stone, and had the Star-Chasing effect attached to him, causing him to stay here.

Miss Wu did not speak. Soon, they arrived at a rather luxurious-looking inn.

In addition to providing lodging, the inn also operated a restaurant and hotel. The first and second floors were for dining, while the third to sixth floors were for lodging.

Miss Wu led the handmaidens to sit down on the third floor and ordered a table of dishes, paying close attention to the movements of the light spot. They sat there from noon until evening, the hot dishes turning cold, but the light spot showed no signs of moving.

Unfortunately, the principle of this magic treasure was to attach a special star power to the target, and then the Star Compass would display the location of that star power, which was equivalent to looking down from the sky, a macro view. Therefore, it was impossible to know the specific floor of the target being tracked.

As an outsider, Miss Wu did not want to ask the innkeeper (innkeeper) questions rashly, so she simply opened a room in the inn and moved in.

They stayed for four days. During those four days, they once suspected that the Tian Luo Sect disciple had not triggered the Star-Chasing Stone’s star power, but because he thought the Star-Chasing Stone was beautiful, he had become greedy and brought it out to sell to the shopkeeper here, who had then collected it somewhere in the inn.

If this was not the case, how could the target not move at all?

As luck would have it, at night, the light spot finally moved.

Miss Wu was reading a book, the feather ornament handmaiden was cultivating with her eyes closed, and the wooden hairpin handmaiden was staring at the light spot. Because it was so boring, she had almost fallen asleep, but the moment she saw the light spot move, she instantly became wide awake and excited. “Miss, Miss, it moved, it moved!”

The feather ornament handmaiden opened her eyes, very displeased. “We’ve been waiting for four days. If the target is that Tian Luo Sect disciple or the innkeeper, I will definitely kill them!”

Miss Wu simply and neatly closed her book and picked up the Star Compass. “Let’s go.”

They concealed their tracks and followed the light spot to the side gate. After searching around for a while, they finally found their target under a certain tree.

“Miss! It really is Ye…” The wooden hairpin handmaiden was so excited that she almost cried out, but the feather ornament handmaiden immediately covered her mouth. “Are you afraid that he won’t be scared away?”

“I didn’t do it on purpose.” The wooden hairpin handmaiden revealed a slightly wronged expression. She had been staring at the Star Compass for so many days, and even when she was dozing off, she was praying that the target would be Ye Yong. Now that her wish had come true, it was really hard for her to remain calm.

“Huh? Where did Ye Yong go? Oh, he’s still there. Did he move just now? Why does it feel so strange?” The feather ornament handmaiden only glanced at the wooden hairpin handmaiden before looking back and almost losing sight of Ye Yong . She felt very strange.

Dressed in a long robe, graceful and elegant, with an extraordinary aura, even the ordinary pine tree next to Ye Yong seemed to appear very high-class. However, Ye Yong, who should have been eye-catching, was very easy to overlook at this moment.

“He must have some magic weapon. It’s easy to overlook him if you don’t pay attention. No wonder no one in the inn mentioned him these days. Fortunately, I have the power of stars and the astrolabe. Otherwise, it would not be easy for us to find him.” Miss Wu felt quite relieved when she saw Ye Yong again. Although Ye Yong was originally hers, which led to the Black Water Secret Realm being destroyed by the strong human race, and she also lost many demons Beast subordinates who had the opportunity to become her subordinates, Miss Wu felt that Ye Yong was worth more than a million subordinates.

“Miss, he’s right there. Shall we capture him?” The wooden hairpin maid was eager to try.

“No.” Miss Wu frowned and observed the surroundings carefully, “Be careful. There may be a trap.”

Sometimes being too clever can be counterproductive. Ye Yong was completely exposed there, which seemed very suspicious.

“Maybe he found the power of the stars attached to him and knew that we were tracking him, so he joined forces with the strong human race of the Tianluo Sect and deliberately set a trap to lure us out and catch us all.”

As there was a precedent, such as Ye Yong and the elder of the Tianluo Sect killing the Demon Sect cultivator, and Ye Yong deliberately suppressing his cultivation to enter the century-old secret realm to lure out the Demon Sect’s undercover, these events that people talked about all showed that Ye Yong was a man of foresight and strategy.

Miss Wu’s words also reminded the wooden hairpin maid and the feather ornament maid that he was a Foundation Establishment cultivator who killed the late-stage demon king, Black Wind, and made a mess of the Black Water Secret Realm. Although he did not rely on his own strength, but on external magic weapons, without courage and talent, he could not have done it. This man was extraordinary.

“Miss, what should we do then?” The wooden hairpin maid was very nervous. She looked around, afraid that a strong human race would jump out and kill them in the next second.

“Let’s observe what he’s going to do first. Don’t be afraid. With the magic weapon, as long as we don’t come into close contact with the strong Mahayana, there’s no way to sense our true identities. Being too afraid will attract attention.”

“Oh…” The wooden hairpin maid forced herself to calm down.

Over there, Ye Yong took out a stack of paper and began to read. As time went by, more and more people gathered at the side door. Although their cultivation was not very good, it did not prevent Miss Wu and the two maids from being vigilant and ready to run away at any time.
