Chapter 1341: Did I Misjudge Ye Lingyun?

Biyan'er's Array was only a one-way barrier.

The outside world could not probe the situation inside the Array, nor could it enter the Array's range.

But the people inside the Array were not affected in the slightest.

Ever since Ye Lingyun sent a message in, Wang Jianqiang had kept a sliver of his Spirit Sense focused on the outside world.

Ye Lingyun's escape was naturally detected by him at the very first moment.

A faint arc curled at the corners of his mouth.

This Ye Lingyun was slippery as always, sensing something was wrong so quickly.

Of course.

If he were to chase after him now, there was a high probability he could keep the other party there.

But he was not prepared to do so.

Ye Lingyun was, after all, his good brother.

In his heart, he held the same weight as his other good brother, Xuan Che.

How could he bear to kill him?

"Daoist Friend Tianyu, what is wrong?"

Biyan'er looked at Wang Jianqiang in confusion.

A cold sneer appeared on Wang Jianqiang's face, "Ye Lingyun has fled."

"Fled?" Biyan'er was stunned, subconsciously extending her Spirit Sense outside the Array.

Sure enough.

Ye Lingyun had already lost his trail.

"Why did he flee for no reason?" Biyan'er could not help but reveal a look of surprise.

Wang Jianqiang pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Just a moment ago, several powerhouses passed by not far from where we are hiding; they happened to be among the powerhouses who wanted to snatch the treasure when you first entered the pool."

"Ye Lingyun must have seen them and, fearing he would be discovered and encounter danger, fled."

Biyan'er frowned upon hearing this.

The Cultivators who had tried to plunder her when she was obtaining the Inheritance Treasure of her clan at the pool were all very strong.

Ye Lingyun's cultivation was still low, so she could understand him being wary of them.

But when he fled, he did not even send a message to warn her and Daoist Friend Tianyu.

That was a bit excessive.

Not to mention whether Ye Lingyun still had any affection for her, she had saved Ye Lingyun from the pursuit of numerous Sea Clan Cultivators back then.

She was Ye Lingyun's savior.

Even if only out of gratitude, shouldn't Ye Lingyun have sent her a message?

Just how rushed did he have to be? How afraid of death was he?

That he didn't even have time to send her a message?

Or perhaps...

He was inherently a cold-hearted and ungrateful person, and had never even thought about sending her a message at all?

Thinking of this.

A look of disappointment appeared on Biyan'er's face.

"I really misjudged him; I didn't expect him to be this kind of person."

Wang Jianqiang smiled and shook his head upon hearing this, "Since he has fled, let him be; there is no need to let such a person affect your mood."

Biyan'er's pretty face suddenly flushed, "Didn't you say there were enemies passing by outside? We should be heading out."

"No need to worry."

"Those people did not discover us and have already left."

Wang Jianqiang chuckled, "What is most important now is me."

Seventeen days later.

The Array was put away.

Wang Jianqiang and Biyan'er flew into the air and escaped toward the distance.

Under Wang Jianqiang's guidance.

Biyan'er's speed in obtaining treasures remained astonishing, though every time she took a treasure, she would still encounter danger.

Then came the three-piece set: getting injured, asking for pills, and resolving Karma.

Gradually.

As the number of cycles increased, Biyan'er even gradually became accustomed to this pattern.

"Ding, Biyan'er's Good and Evil Value has increased. Current Good and Evil Value: 98 points."

This day.

Just as Biyan'er finished resolving Karma for Wang Jianqiang, a system notification sound suddenly rang out in Wang Jianqiang's mind.

Hearing this sound, the corners of Wang Jianqiang's mouth curled slightly.

Afterward, the two continued on their treasure-hunting journey.

What made Biyan'er feel amazed was.

Her bad luck seemed to have suddenly disappeared.

In the subsequent treasure hunt, under Wang Jianqiang's guidance, her speed in obtaining treasures was not slow at all, but the number of times she encountered danger had decreased significantly.

She almost never suffered serious injuries from treasure hunting again.

While this made her feel happy, for some reason, there was also an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart.

On this day.

Wang Jianqiang was flying in the air together with Biyan'er.

Suddenly.

Wang Jianqiang seemed to have sensed something, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

He then continued to fly forward as if nothing had happened.

Not long after.

A cry of astonishment suddenly came from one side.

"Bi Xianzi, you actually didn't die?"

Hearing this voice, Wang Jianqiang and Biyan'er turned their heads to look at the same time, and then, a familiar figure appeared in their field of vision.

That was a young man with a handsome appearance and an extraordinary bearing.

At this moment, the young man was looking at Biyan'er with a face full of astonishment, his eyes revealing a look of disbelief.

Seeing the young man, a flash of mockery flickered deep in Wang Jianqiang's eyes.

To the side.

A cold sneer appeared on Biyan'er's beautiful face, "What? Daoist Friend Ye, are you very surprised that I didn't die?"

Hearing Biyan'er's tone, Ye Lingyun's expression flickered for a moment.

Previously, seeing that Tianyu and Biyan'er were slow to put away the Formation, coupled with the intense sense of crisis in his heart, he had concluded that Tianyu harbored malicious intentions and had a conflict with Biyan'er.

Now it seemed.

His own thoughts appeared to have been wrong.

Tianyu did not seem to have had a conflict with Biyan'er.

In this way.

His previous words were somewhat ambiguous.

Thinking of this, his expression flashed, and he hurriedly tried to make amends, "Bi Xianzi, you have misunderstood; Ye did not mean that."

Biyan'er spoke indifferently, continuing to press him, "You fled for no reason, and upon seeing me again, your first sentence was to ask this."

"I am actually quite curious..."

"What exactly do you mean?"

Ye Lingyun could not help but glance at Wang Jianqiang.

Naturally, he could not say that he did not trust Tianyu, thought Tianyu was a traitor, and had run away out of fear.

After his thoughts flashed rapidly, he said, "I was waiting outside the Formation earlier and discovered that you had not come out for a long time, so I wandered around that area in my spare time."

"But I did not expect to suddenly encounter several powerful enemies."

"I only managed to escape by paying the price of an arm."

"I took a detour all the way back to outside the Formation, intending to attack the Formation to alert you, but you did not hear it."

"Afterward, the powerful enemies pursued me, and I simply assumed Bi Xianzi must be in the middle of recovering; worried that your recovery would be disturbed, I used myself as bait to lure them away."

"However, although I tried every possible method at the time, I only lured away a portion of the people and did not lure them all away."

"I thought those people would notice your location and be detrimental to you..."

"That is why I was so surprised when I saw you."

Hearing Ye Lingyun's words, Biyan'er was stunned, then frowned as she looked at Ye Lingyun's arm.

Ye Lingyun hurriedly explained, "After I escaped, I was lucky enough to obtain a type of Healing Pill, which restored my severed arm."

Biyan'er's brow furrowed, revealing a look of sudden realization.

Although what Ye Lingyun said had slight discrepancies with what Daoist Friend Tianyu said.

They were only minor discrepancies in the details, and the general sequence of events was almost the same.

The only difference was.

Ye Lingyun did not encounter powerful enemies and flee out of cowardice, but rather left without saying goodbye in order to sacrifice himself to lure the enemies away for their sake.
