Chapter 44: Different Space, Intercepting the Opportunity!

Jianghai City, Emerald Manor.

Ever since she participated in the encirclement of the Snake King alongside the Changsheng Group and other noble families and financial groups, Lin Xueer had seemed to draw a line between herself and these people upon her return; she had been doing things silently on her own, and she did not care much about anything else, focusing her attention specifically on searching for Spirit Fruit.

This day, as usual, Lin Xueer stared at the scenery outside the window and asked her secretary beside her without turning her head, "Are the Spirit Fruit all prepared?"

"They are prepared, they are all here!"

For the past two days, the secretary had been helping her collect Strange Fruit; previously, the collected Strange Fruit would be given to the Ability Users she had recruited to help them improve their strength, but this time, the Strange Fruit were just being left there, so the secretary could not help but voice the doubt in her heart, "It's just that I don't know how you intend to handle them, Miss?"

"If they need to be used after a while, I can handle them simply..."

"Don't ask what you shouldn't!"

Before the secretary could finish speaking, Lin Xueer gave a low reprimand, immediately making the secretary shut her mouth.

She had done this precisely because she wanted to rely on her own power to collect Strange Fruit to offer to Lu Chuan, and therefore did not want anyone other than herself to know.

Lin Xueer glanced at the Strange Fruit that had just been collected for her inspection, and a curve could not help but appear at the corners of her mouth, thinking that she might receive some praise from Lu Chuan, but just at this moment, she suddenly received a message from Lu Chuan, and after learning the news, she was immediately very surprised, "What, Jiang Luoli has arrived in Qinling?"

"When did this happen?"

She had just finished saying this when she immediately shut her mouth, falling into deep self-reproach.

This matter was supposed to be Lin Xueer's personal responsibility, yet now she had only learned of this major news after being asked by Lu Chuan; did this not prove that her work was not up to par? If anyone should be surprised, it should be Lu Chuan, but she was the one who had broken the news, and now the situation was completely reversed.

Even though she was the eldest daughter of the Powerful Group, she felt somewhat panicked and nervous at this moment.

Previously, Lu Chuan had told her to pay attention to Jiang Luoli's whereabouts, and basically to report as soon as there was any movement, but she had not expected that Jiang Luoli would go to Qinling now, yet she had not passed any news to Lu Chuan; it could be said that this was a serious dereliction of duty on her part.

This made Lin Xueer feel that she had failed Lu Chuan's expectations and trust.

What's more, this was something Lu Chuan had instructed long ago, and she had not handled it well; would he...

Just as she was thinking this, Lu Chuan's voice came into her mind, "Alright, hurry and check if Jiang Luoli has any other arrangements!"

"She should have entered Qinling alone this time, but no one knows what the situation is exactly."

"You must tell me the news the moment you get it!"

In the great mountains of Qinling, Lu Chuan was in no mood to lecture Lin Xueer now; his attention was entirely on Jiang Luoli.

Relying on 【Blood Hunting】, he had followed Jiang Luoli the entire way without losing her, and after tracking the other party for over two hundred miles, it was only at this moment that Jiang Luoli finally stopped.

He discovered that this woman's actions were extremely clear, as if she knew what she should do and what she was looking for here, but having followed for so long, he had not discovered that there were such places in Qinling that nurtured opportunities.

At this moment, Lu Chuan's mind was full of curiosity about Jiang Luoli.

Therefore, he did not want to dwell on Lin Xueer's mistake, nor did he want to know what Lin Xueer was thinking in her heart.

"This is the place!"

Jiang Luoli stopped in her tracks, looked at the surrounding environment, and a look of joy gradually appeared on her face, "This time, the timing should be just right."

"I can take the item away before anyone else reacts." "By that time, no one will be able to stop me."

The place where she was located was a canyon area resembling a Yixiantian; below the canyon, there were also a dozen wild wolves, and now that they had sensed the aura of an outsider, they were all baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, looking very fierce.

"Awoo..."

Hearing these dozen wild wolves howl, they rushed rapidly toward where Jiang Luoli was.

"Seeking death!"

Seeing this, Jiang Luoli gave a cold, disdainful snort, and immediately waved her hand to release the Blood Gu.

The body of the Blood Gu instantly grew larger, and when the leading wild wolf rushed forward, it suddenly opened its bloody maw and swallowed it, its movements as fast as lightning.

In the blink of an eye, the Blood Gu had devoured the dozen wild wolves in front of it.

Having dealt with these wild wolves, Jiang Luoli sat cross-legged in this Yixiantian canyon, seemingly waiting for something.

She would occasionally lift her head to look at the surroundings and the sky above, and occasionally rest her mind, as if she were so calm and composed because something peculiar was bound to appear here, only she was unsure of the specific time.

And a few miles outside the canyon, Lu Chuan was also waiting patiently.

He sensed that Jiang Luoli had stopped moving, and curiosity could not help but arise in his heart, "Does that canyon have something peculiar about it?"

At a certain moment, even though he was far away, Lu Chuan saw a trace of fluctuation in the space in mid-air within the canyon, as if the space there had become abnormal.

Seeing this scene, he immediately widened his eyes, carefully sensing that spatial fluctuation, "I suppose this spatial fluctuation must be related to the goal of Jiang Luoli's trip, but what exactly is it?"

While he was lost in thought, the spatial fluctuation became increasingly intense, with huge changes occurring with almost every breath.

As this anomaly became more and more intense, one could see a black crack appear; looking from afar, it seemed as if the firmament had been torn open, yet through this crack, one could not see the situation inside.

The pitch-black background within the crack was deep and mysterious, and it seemed to contain infinite possibilities.

And at the very next moment, a petite figure flew directly into the air, stepped straight into the crack, and disappeared! "The sensing of Blood Hunting has vanished!"

At the same time, Lu Chuan was greatly shocked, and an unbelievable thought even popped into his mind, "Could it be that Jiang Luoli has entered that peculiar space?"

Up until now, Blood Hunting had never had an accident other than exceeding the sensing range, and since neither he nor Jiang Luoli had moved their positions in a short time, the fact that the sensing of that woman had suddenly disappeared meant that some kind of change must have occurred.

Spatial isolation could indeed cause Blood Hunting to fail.

"If there really is an opportunity inside, I must not let Jiang Luoli get it!"

Regaining his senses, Lu Chuan's heart suddenly tightened, and he strode toward that peculiar space.

After all, that woman was already difficult enough to deal with; if the other party obtained some kind of opportunity inside and then turned around to deal with him, it would likely be even more terrifying.

He would not allow such a situation to happen.

Therefore, Lu Chuan also intended to enter the crack to investigate.
