Chapter 873
Hearing his words, the woman was startled in her heart, and a hint of fear flashed across the field.
After pondering for a long time, she gritted her teeth and said: "I am from the Butterfly Clan. Our Butterfly Clan is born sensitive to Qi; we can feel even a little bit of difference. Today you touched me, so I felt it."
Learning she was from the Butterfly Clan, the vigilance in Chen Ang's eyes lightened a bit, because he knew she wasn't lying. People from the Butterfly Clan were indeed sensitive to Qi, which he also knew.
"What kind of person are you? Why did you come here? Don't speak; I've already heard your self-talk just now, and you are now under my control. I advise you to tell the truth."
Saying this, the strength in Chen Ang's hand tightened a bit more.
Feeling the pain in her wrist, the woman frowned tightly. Although she really didn't want to pay attention to Chen Ang, he was right. She was now under his control and really couldn't lie.
Turning her head away, she said coldly and lightly: "My name is Qing Mei, and I came to find something."
"Came to find what?"
Thinking for a moment, Qing Mei said: "What I want to find is the same as you."
"The same as me? Why do you want to find these things? Who told you the things were here?"
Hearing him ask three questions in a row, Qing Mei's brows knitted even tighter.
"I have my reasons for wanting to find them; why should I tell you? As for who told me the location, you should be able to guess. Every clan has elders who know these things like the back of their hands. It's not unreasonable for us juniors to learn from them. You can come here, aren't you also guided by your clansmen?"
Thinking for a moment, Chen Ang let go of his hand.
Rubbing her painful wrist, Qing Mei glared at him secretly, then turned and wanted to leave.
Looking at her back, Chen Ang said lightly: "I don't care what you want these things for, but you'd better not ruin my good deeds. I am determined to get these things. I don't mind having an opponent, but if you dare to use underhanded tactics behind my back, I will definitely not let you off. Things like today had better not happen again; otherwise, I can spare you once, but I can't spare you a second time. You'd better have a count in your heart."
Listening to his tone, Qing Mei felt a bit angry in her heart, but after thinking carefully, she couldn't refute it and could only nod indignantly.
"Understood. You're just bullying people because you're strong, right? I'm telling you, it's not certain who will get these things. If you don't believe it, let's wait and see!"
As the sky brightened, there was still no reaction in Chen Ang's room.
Standing outside the door, Wan Shitong paced back and forth anxiously, sometimes walking, sometimes sticking to the door panel, but no sound came from inside, which made him feel a bit panicked.
Watching him pace back and forth, Huang Yu rubbed his eyebrows helplessly.
"Wan Shitong, can you stop walking? It's annoying to watch."
"You're annoyed? I'm even more annoyed than you. The boss has never gotten up this late when he's out, and there's no news today. I suspect he isn't even inside!"
Hearing his words, Huang Yu's eyes lit up.
"Wan Shitong, can you feel the boss's Qi?"
"I can, but he always restrains his Qi usually."
Getting this answer, Huang Yu's expression was a bit disappointed.
Looking at the door panel, he lowered his voice and said: "Why don't we try knocking on the door to see if the boss is really inside."
Hearing his suggestion, Wan Shitong was also a bit moved.
"Trying is fine. In case something happened to the boss inside, we can go in in time, right?"
"That's the logic. Are you knocking or am I knocking?"
After their eyes met, Wan Shitong said: "Let's do it together. If anything happens, we'll bear it together, okay?"
"Fine, let's do it together."
When retracting their gazes, the two hands knocked down together.
Just as their hands were about to touch the door panel, it was suddenly pulled open from the inside.
As soon as the door opened, two hands fell on him in unison, which made Chen Ang couldn't help but frown.
"What are you doing? Staging a sneak attack?"
Looking at him, both of their eyes lit up.
"Boss, we were just about to knock on the door, and you came out. Why did you get up so late today?"
After turning his head to look at the upper room next to him, Chen Ang said lightly: "A mouse entered the room last night, so I was catching the mouse."
"What? There are no mice in this inn? You wait, I'll go find the shop assistant."
Seeing Wan Shitong turn around and want to leave, Chen Ang pulled him back with Qi.
"No need to find. I've already handled it last night. Let's go."
Listening to his tone, Wan Shitong felt a bit muddled, but seeing Huang Yu wink at him, he swallowed the words that reached his mouth.
Maybe this mouse wasn't that mouse, but since Chen Ang didn't want to say, he wouldn't ask anymore. Anyway, since he said he had handled it, he wouldn't worry.
When the crowd went downstairs, the door panel downstairs moved slightly.
Stopping his steps, Chen Ang turned his head to look.
After just one look, the person inside hid away quickly.
Feeling the Qi inside, Chen Ang curled the corners of his mouth gently.
Following his line of sight to look, Huang Yu asked in a low voice: "Boss, is the mouse there?"
"No, you go ahead."
Seeing he didn't say much, Huang Yu didn't dare to ask more and hurriedly followed.
Walking on the street all the way, the fragrance rushed to their noses, making everyone swallow their saliva repeatedly.
Wan Shitong was closest to Chen Ang, and he swallowed his saliva most diligently. Listening to the gulp-gulp sounds, Chen Ang finally stopped his steps.
"As a person of cultivation, why are you so hungry?"
Hearing his words, Wan Shitong smiled embarrassedly.
"Boss, I'm not hungry; I'm greedy. The smell of these buns is too fragrant; they must be delicious. It's just a pity I don't have any copper coins on me, so I can only watch. Sigh!"
Listening to his pretentious sigh, Chen Ang couldn't help but roll his eyes, but finally took out a string of copper coins and placed them in his hand.
Holding the meat buns and moving forward all the way, the crowd followed the map to a forest.
Not long after entering, Chen Ang found that this place was a bit wrong.
Spreading his arms, he blocked the crowd behind him directly.
Gnawing on the bun, Wan Shitong asked puzzledly: "Boss, why aren't we walking? Did you find something?"
"No discovery, but this path is wrong."
"Wrong? Where is it wrong? Is it because the path is harder to walk?"
"No, look at the ground."
Following the direction of his finger, the chewing movements of the crowd stopped immediately.
Squatting down to touch the soft soil, Chen Ang said softly: "There should be beasts in this place; these are the footprints left by the beasts."
Hearing his words, Wan Shitong threw the bun in his hand very far away.
"Boss, the fragrance of the bun is so strong; won't it attract the beasts?"
Listening to the question he asked with fear, Chen
Upon receiving this answer, Wan Shitong hurriedly used his Qi to disperse the scent on his body, fearing he would attract the beasts.
Seeing him do this, the others followed suit, one after another dispersing their Qi.
Seeing their actions, Chen Ang was left between laughter and tears.
"If you disperse your Qi far away, wouldn't it be even easier to attract the beasts?"
Hearing his words, the group's bodies immediately stiffened.
"Boss, then what should we do now?"
"Just like this. Since we have already come, we are not afraid of them. If there really are beasts, just let them come up directly."
"Right! They are merely beasts, what is there to be afraid of? We are not afraid!" Wan Shitong said this with extra intensity.
After glancing at him, Chen Ang said indifferently, "Let's change to another path and continue walking. If there are no footprints on the other paths, it means the beasts are unavoidable. We will think about what to do then."
After speaking, he chose the path on the right and led the group up it.
This time, everyone became exceptionally cautious; their gazes were all fixed on the ground, carefully searching for the beasts' footprints.
Not knowing how long they had walked, Chen Ang stopped his footsteps again.
Seeing him stop, the hearts of the group immediately rose.
Crowding in front of him, Wan Shitong asked cautiously, "Boss, have you made another discovery?"
"Hmm, this beast should not be simple. Look at that rock."
Looking up at the boulder, everyone couldn't help but catch their breath, because there was a huge footprint on the boulder, and the footprint was very deep, and the surrounding stones were also very sharp; it was clearly kicked out with internal force!
"Bo... Boss, this footprint is so big, how big must the beast be?! Will it eat people?" Wan Shitong asked stutteringly.
