Chapter 895: The Whereabouts of Ye Lingyun

Wang Jianqiang looked toward the people in the Youzhou team.

His gaze swept over each figure, pausing for a moment on Xuan Che.

To be honest, he really wanted to deploy his human-shaped opportunity detector.

Bringing the human-shaped opportunity detector along would surely allow him to reap a bountiful harvest.

But he was not truly here for this trip to slay Ye Lingyun.

Rather, he wanted to find an opportunity to trap and kill this Elite Squad, weakening the Outside the Realm teams by one wave first.

If Xuan Che followed, not only would it be easy to ruin his plan, but he also couldn't bear to kill him.

Thinking this way, he immediately abandoned the idea of taking Xuan Che along.

Afterward, he looked again at the beautiful figure beside Xuan Che.

Sensing Wang Jianqiang's gaze, Kong Yu did not show an expression of disgust as she had in the past, but instead, a faint trace of shyness flashed across her face.

After sensing Wang Jianqiang's gaze, Xuan Che subconsciously looked at Kong Yu.

Upon noticing Kong Yu's expression, he frowned.

What is wrong with Yu'er?

Didn't she hate Wan Guiyuan very much?

This expression does not look like hatred at all.

Could it be that she is feeling unwell somewhere?

He furrowed his brows.

Immediately following that, he thought of the changes in Kong Yu after the Spirit Ranking Battle.

Ever since the Spirit Ranking Battle ended, Kong Yu's attitude toward him had clearly become much colder.

Could it be...

She is dissatisfied with his performance in the Spirit Ranking Battle??

Thinking of this, Xuan Che could not help but look at Wan Guiyuan.

It is all this Wan Guiyuan's fault!

A cold, sharp luster flashed in his eyes.

If there is an opportunity, he must slaughter him to avenge Yu'er.

He wants to prove to Yu'er that he, Xuan Che, is no coward!

Sensing the gaze of Xuan Che that had suddenly turned cold, the corners of Wang Jianqiang's mouth lifted slightly, and his gaze no longer lingered on Kong Yu.

Shifting his gaze, he looked at Xiaoyue Daoren and said, "Xiaoyue, come with me to hunt down Ye Lingyun."

Hearing Wan Guiyuan call his name, Xiaoyue Daoren was overjoyed.

Back then outside Wenxian City, he had almost been slain by Ye Lingyun, and he had always viewed this matter as a humiliation, longing to take revenge with his own hands.

Now, the opportunity had finally arrived!

"Good!"

He nodded, his figure flashed, and he appeared beside Wang Jianqiang.

After that.

The leaders of the other few regions also began to select candidates to join the Elite Squad.

Not long after.

The sixteen-person Elite Squad to hunt down Ye Lingyun was formed.

Wang Jianqiang looked at the other fifteen people, including Cao Tian and Xiaoyue Daoren, and after a moment of contemplation, said, "We are all Ninth-Order Will Stage cultivators; once we make a move, it will be too eye-catching. Therefore, before finding Ye Lingyun, try your best not to act in front of others."

"In this way, our team needs to add someone to handle chores, to deal with troubles before we find Ye Lingyun."

"Since the plan to slay Ye Lingyun was proposed by my Youzhou side, then this person to handle chores should be provided by my Youzhou side."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, everyone praised him one after another, "Daoist Friend Wan is truly thoughtful."

Wang Jianqiang smiled and his gaze fell upon "Lu Xiu", "Junior Sister Lu, I will have to trouble you to come with us."

"Yes, Senior Brother."

Lu Xiu was stunned for a moment, then responded loudly.

Wang Jianqiang nodded and said half-jokingly, "The safety of the sixteen of us will be entirely in your hands."

Hearing this, Lu Xiu nodded with a serious expression, "Rest assured, Senior Brother, I will certainly not let you down."

Upon hearing Wan Guiyuan's joke, everyone, except for a few people from Cao Tian's region who held grudges against Wang Jianqiang, smiled amusedly.

Wang Jianqiang nodded with a smile, then looked at the other seven leaders, "Since the personnel have been selected, we shall set off. Everyone must remember, before we return, you must not leak our tracks."

"Daoist Friend Wan, rest assured."

Qingshui and the others nodded one after another.

Afterward, Wang Jianqiang looked at Xiaoyue Daoren again, "Xiaoyue, you lead the way."

Xiaoyue nodded.

As early as when the plan to hunt down Ye Lingyun was finalized, he had already impatiently asked his fellow sect members in the Outer Realm Battlefield for Ye Lingyun's location information.

He locked onto the direction his fellow sect members had told him and flew out first.

Behind him, Wang Jianqiang and the others followed closely.

The Outer Realm Battlefield is a space that has been forcibly torn apart.

Within this space, there exist a large number of spatial rifts.

These spatial rifts are like unknown passages; some lead to the depths of the endless void, filled with violent spatial storms, and any cultivator who enters is certain to die.

Some rifts lead to various Ancient Battlefields and independent small worlds.

Within these Ancient Battlefields and independent small worlds, there are numerous opportunities.

Some of these spatial rifts have been confirmed, making it clear whether they lead to the depths of the void or to lands of opportunity.

But the vast majority remain in an undeveloped state, filled with the unknown and danger.

The Cultivators wandering in the wilderness of the Outer Realm Battlefield have the goal of exploring those known lands of opportunity or searching for unknown ones.

After separating from the main group, Wang Jianqiang and the others, led by Xiaoyue Daoren, arrived outside a spatial rift.

Just as the group appeared outside the spatial rift, dozens of figures suddenly flashed out from all around the rift.

An old man looked at Xiaoyue Daoren, a faint smile appearing on his face, "Xiaoyue, you have come."

Seeing the old man, Xiaoyue Daoren cupped his hands in a salute, "Greetings, Deacon Xing. Because of the matter regarding Ye Lingyun, Deacon Xing has suffered."

Deacon Xing shook his head, "I am merely a useless person whose lifespan is nearing its end and who has no hope of Integration; remaining in the sect was of little use to the sect anyway, so being able to sever my cultivation to help the sect can be considered repaying the sect."

Xiaoyue was silent for a moment, then spoke again, "Xing Lao, where is Ye Lingyun now?"

Xing Lao looked at Wang Jianqiang and the others.

"Xing Lao need not worry, these are all our own people, you may speak directly," said Xiaoyue Daoren.

Xing Lao nodded, "Following the sect's orders, I and the other fellow disciples have been hunting down Ye Lingyun, and have clashed with Ye Lingyun many times, but the other party has escaped every time."

"Just one year ago, we found Ye Lingyun again and pursued him all the way to this place."

"Ye Lingyun escaped into this spatial rift."

As he spoke, he pointed to the spatial rift at the side.

"This spatial rift leads to a Flame World; that Flame World is an undeveloped space, its environment is extremely harsh, and it contains numerous powerful flame spirits."

"We entered several times, but not only failed to find Ye Lingyun, we also ended up suffering heavy losses."

"Afterward, we retreated back outside the spatial rift and did not enter it again."

"We can only confirm now that Ye Lingyun is inside; as for his specific location, or whether he is dead or alive, we do not know."
