Chapter 786
Chen Qingyu naturally did not expect that the reason for not entering the city was simply because it was troublesome.
After all, with several tens of thousands of people plus over a hundred thousand pet beasts, where would they stay if they entered the city? People were one thing, but what about the pet beasts?
"Monitor them in secret, don't get too close, be careful not to be discovered by Yu Mo and the others."
Leaving two Saint Realm Elders to monitor Facing Qi Xiong and the others in secret, the rest returned to the city.
Back in the city, in the main hall, the two ancestors looked at Chen Qingyu with some confusion and said.
"Did you figure it out or not? Are you sure Yu Mo and the other two are really going to die?"
From their previous contact, Yu Mo and the other two didn't look like people about to die at all; they even had a feeling of becoming younger the longer they lived.
This was absurd; didn't you say they had problems?
Hearing this, Chen Qingyu could not provide an answer either; he didn't know either. Just then, an Elder on the side spoke up with a guess.
"Ancestor, do you think they might have used a forbidden technique? That's why they look like that, but in reality, they are already at the end of their rope."
Hmm???
Hearing this, everyone present had their eyes light up; it was indeed possible.
"Ancestor, that's eight or nine tenths likely to be the case."
Chen Qingyu said with a certain tone.
And the two ancestors were also lost in thought; this possibility could not be ruled out. After thinking for a while, one of them spoke up.
"The Dao Yi Sect hasn't shown any hostility now..."
"Ancestor, this must be Facing Qi Xiong's scheme. I used to think Facing Qi Xiong was an honest man, but in the last year, I discovered that Facing Qi Xiong's honesty is all an act; in reality, he is black-hearted and dirty-handed, truly an extremely sinister person."
"Right now, the Dao Yi Sect hasn't shown hostility, surely to make us lower our guard. Perhaps they saw you, Ancestors, present, so they didn't dare to act, wanting to wait for you to continue your closed-door cultivation and slumber, then take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack."
Originally, seeing the Dao Yi Sect like this, the two ancestors had the intention of returning to the sect to continue their closed-door slumber; after all, they only had so much lifespan left, they couldn't afford to waste it.
But now, hearing Chen Qingyu's words, the two were a bit indecisive.
Yes, if the Dao Yi Sect really launched a sudden attack while they returned to the sect for closed-door slumber, how would Chen Qingyu and the others resist?
On one hand, there was their lifespan, and on the other, the "possible sudden attack by the Dao Yi Sect." The two ancestors hesitated.
"Are you sure Facing Qi Xiong would do this?"
"Certainly. That Su Luoxing is also considered a figure, but in Facing Qi Xiong's hands, he was calculated into having no power to fight back every single time."
"Su Luoxing's cautionary tale is right before our eyes; my Qingyun Sect must not follow in his footsteps."
Chen Qingyu said firmly. To this, the two ancestors looked at each other and then nodded.
"Good, then the two of us will stay temporarily to guard against the Dao Yi Sect's actions."
"Ancestors are wise." ===== CHAPTER 787 =====
