Chapter 1253: It

It was rare for Er Gou to be reliable, but this time it was indeed quite reliable!

It didn't brag; it really returned along the original path, leading Xu Que and his group to track the traces of the Shennong Clan's group.

Although they had set up some concealment arrays along the way and erased the traces they had left, Er Gou had already seen through everything. It did the opposite and followed the traces of their array setup, finding them with ease.

At this moment, Xu Que and the others were already hiding on a high point in the mountain forest, using the Godly Spirit Shell to completely conceal their group, looking down from above.

The people of the Shennong Clan were still moving forward cautiously, setting up arrays while erasing traces, and at the same time, two Imperial Physician Scattered Immortals were watching the surroundings, vigilant for any outsiders.

Their Divine Sense coverage was extremely large. If it weren't for Xu Que and the others running over while shielded by the Godly Spirit Shell, they would likely have been detected long ago.

"Haha, nowhere to be found after wearing out iron shoes. They are so careful, they must be wanting to go to the place where the Resurrection Thousand Gold Vine is planted!" Duan Jiude's eyes lit up, and he laughed excitedly.

"Heh, isn't it thanks to this Godly Venerable's wit? I had already thought of this method, which is why I ran over ahead of time to find them, and as a result, I found them easily!" Er Gou raised its proud head, very proud.

Duan Jiude glanced at it silently and sneered: "What kind of wit is that? If it weren't for the fear of being beaten, how could you have such dog-shit luck to discover them by accident?"

"Damn, Duan Jiude, are you looking down on this Godly Venerable?" Er Gou immediately shouted.

"Alright, stop messing around. Isn't it childish? What time is it, and you're still arguing about these irrelevant things? Is it meaningful?"

At this moment, Xu Que frowned and stopped the dispute between the man and the dog, saying speechlessly: "Er Gou, although you made a contribution, is it your credit alone? Heh, if I hadn't deliberately scared you with a knife, would you have run out and bumped into them? In fact, everything was calculated by me, and I had already foreseen it. Taking the knife to scare you was just to have you scout the path first."

"Damn!" Er Gou and Duan Jiude stared straight at him, speechless.

No way, being shameless was also a realm!

"Alright, all three of you, quiet down. That group of people seems to be moving closer to us." At this moment, Liu Jingning interrupted the show of low standards by the virtue-lacking dog combination and pointed forward.

Sure enough, the people of the Shennong Clan were not only setting up arrays, but their forward direction was also changing at any time. At this moment, they were actually moving toward the direction where Xu Que was located.

"Holy crap, we won't be discovered, will we?" Er Gou immediately exclaimed.

"It shouldn't be. Perhaps the entrance to that place is just near us!" Mo Junchen observed for a moment and shook his head.

Xu Que agreed with this point!

Judging from the expressions of the Shennong Clan's people, it didn't look like they had discovered them, and their forward speed and array-setting steps were the same as before, not disrupted. Moving toward their side was mostly just a coincidence!

Finally, when the Shennong Clan's group walked to the position halfway up the mountain, they finally stopped. They were only a few hundred meters away from Xu Que and the others, very close.

"Eh, why did they stop there? That place doesn't look like it has any entrance!" Er Gou asked suspiciously.

Xu Que also frowned slightly, feeling puzzled.

Er Gou was right; the position halfway up the mountain truly didn't look like there were traces of an entrance. It wasn't that there wasn't one on the surface, but if an entrance were set up in such a position, the conditions were limited, it would be very troublesome, and it would also be very difficult to maintain concealment.

But just at this moment, the Shennong Clan's group sat down at the position halfway up the mountain!

One of the Golden Core Stage Peak guardians said: "Everything is ready, just waiting for the sunlight to fall to manifest the entrance. We can see it perfectly from this position!"

Having said this, he looked at several young people beside him, his gaze falling on a man who was the most outstanding and handsome among them, and said: "Yi Fang, this time the clan has entrusted the heavy responsibility of harvesting the Resurrection Thousand Gold Vine to us, which shows that they have placed high hopes on you. Remember not to make any mistakes. If everything goes smoothly, the position of Divine Son will be yours!"

The handsome man smiled indifferently: "I understand, so this time I also invited two elders to accompany us to ensure nothing goes wrong. Yi Zhong and Yi Dan, those two brothers, overestimated themselves and provoked people they shouldn't have, throwing away their lives in vain. I, Yi Fang, will not be as stupid as them!"

"As long as you understand. The position of Divine Son is of great significance, and the competition is also very fierce. But with Yi Zhong and Yi Dan dead, your chances of winning in the clan are now the highest, but you still cannot take it lightly!" the guardian nodded.

Yi Fang curled his lips: "Rest assured, once we bring the Resurrection Thousand Gold Vine back to the clan, the next step will be to deal with Xu Que's father. Whether in the clan or the outside world, everyone is wary of the strength of Xu Que's father, but they don't know that my Shennong Clan has inherited for so many years and refined countless spirit medicines, but poison was also what we were most proficient in. Even if Xu Que's father is truly an Immortal King or above, once he falls into the trap this time, he will definitely die without a whole corpse!"

"Sigh, although your plan is indeed good, and if you can solve Xu Que's father, the position of Divine Son will definitely be yours for the taking, but..." the guardian said, his gaze falling on the woman beside Yi Fang, and he shook his head: "Is it really worth it?"

Upon hearing this, the woman lowered her head slightly and chose to remain silent.

A trace of struggle also flashed across Yi Fang's eyes, and finally, he gritted his teeth: "It's worth it!"

Subsequently, the group fell silent again.

On the mountaintop, Xu Que and his group, hiding in the Godly Spirit Shell, heard this and felt somewhat confused.

Although it could be confirmed that this group of people was harvesting the Resurrection Thousand Gold Vine, and the entrance seemed to require some special guidance, what they said afterward made Xu Que and the others somewhat bewildered.

"Kid, they seem to want to use poison to poison you to death!" Er Gou looked at Xu Que and said.

"Old Man, I am also very curious. The Shennong Clan actually has poison that can target Immortal Kings and above! But they said too little just now. Even if they have such powerful poison, how could they possibly get close to an Immortal King or above?" Duan Jiude also frowned, expressing his confusion!

If the strength gap was obvious, wanting to poison an Immortal King or above was definitely not an easy thing. Where did these people get their confidence?

"Little guy, could it be that the death trap you face in forty-some days is caused by them?" At this moment, Liu Jingning suddenly asked.

Xu Que also reacted, feeling stunned.

No way, could it be that in forty-some days, he would really be poisoned to death by these people?

But this was unlikely. Since he already knew they were going to be unfavorable to him, he would definitely not let them go. In forty-some days, how could they possibly make a move on him?

Thinking of this, Xu Que shook his head.

This possibility was too small. After all, regardless of whether he knew the prophecy in advance, in an ignorant situation, even if he encountered this situation, he would not let the Shennong Clan go. So, the crisis he would encounter at that time was likely not the Shennong Clan!

Just at this moment, the people on the Shennong Clan's side started talking again!

"Little sister, have you really decided?" A young man looked at the only young woman and asked in a low voice.

The woman nodded, still silent.

Yi Fang saw this and said indifferently: "Little sister, you don't need to worry. Once this matter is done, the position of Saintess of the Shennong Clan will definitely be yours. So the only thing you need to do is to become the daughter-in-law of Xu Que's father as soon as possible!"
