Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 574 Canʼt Figure it Out _2

Among the crowd, some agreed and others were scornful.

It was Young Master Yun who earnestly nodded in agreement.

The white-haired elder continued, ”The real question now is, where on earth did that person go?”

Everyone looked at each other, their brows furrowed in deep thought.

Someone asked, ”Is there any trace of that person in South Yue City?”

”No... at least, I havenʼt found anything.”

”We havenʼt found any clues either...”

”Not a single trace...”

”Itʼs as if no cultivator in the entire South Yue City has ever seen that personʼs face or knows his whereabouts...”

”So, has he really been here or not?”

”It seems like he hasnʼt.”

”If he hasnʼt come, how did he know about the Corpse Mine?”

”You wouldnʼt think that he can only know about these things by coming here in person, by seeing with his own eyes, do you? Youʼre seriously underestimating him...”

Quite a few cultivators nodded silently.

A cultivator said, ”Iʼm just wondering, could all this be within that personʼs calculations?”

”Including the mutation of the Corpse King, the battle to suppress the Corpse Mine, Lu Chengyunʼs scheme, and that Junior Formation Master who made the Corpse King submit; could his every move be within that personʼs calculations?”

”If thatʼs really the case, itʼs terrifying...”

”If so, we might never see that person in our entire lives.”

”Be content, even Heaven Shu Pavilion has been searching for hundreds of years without finding a trace of that person. Now that weʼre gathered here, experiencing all of this, itʼs already the closest weʼve ever been to him.”

”His schemes are too deep...”

”Indeed...”

”Speaking of which, that Junior Formation Master is no ordinary person either.”

”Yes...”

”Such a powerful Junior Formation Master, I wonder where he comes from...”

The crowd marveled in amazement.

”Speaking of the Junior Formation Master...” someone pondered with a frown, ”... isnʼt there also a Junior Formation Master in Tongxian City who set up a Large Formation and executed the Big Demon Feng Xi?”

The crowd fell silent for a while.

Someone said seriously, ”Would you rather believe that story instead of believing that I am the reincarnation of a Taoist master?”

”Reincarnate my ass, do you think youʼre worthy?”

”You dare curse me?”

”So, about the Junior Formation Master setting up a Large Formation, what do you think a Large Formation is?”

”Indeed, a Large Formation is no trifling matter.”

A cultivator frowned and said, ”But... Iʼve heard an elder from Heaven Shu Pavilion say that in Tongxian City, within the domain of Black Mountain State at Second Grade, indeed a Big Demon emerged, and indeed someone set up a Large Formation, which subdued the Big Demon...”

”Isnʼt it obvious? The cause and effect of that person surfaced in Tongxian City. So, itʼs not just about a Junior Formation Master setting up a Large Formation to kill the Big Demon, itʼs that person working behind the scenes...”

He suddenly stopped talking midway.

Everyone present also realized something was off; after pondering for a moment, their faces turned pale.

In Tongxian City, that person was behind everything...

The happenings in South Yue City were also instigated by that person...

There is a Junior Formation Master in Tongxian City, as well as in South Yue City...

An astonishing suspicion emerged in everyoneʼs mind:

Could this Junior Formation Master be... that Junior Formation Master...

If thatʼs the case, then the person behind this Junior Formation Master... could it be the person they were looking for?!

What is their relationship?

A middle-aged cultivator swallowed hard and said tentatively:

”Could it be... that this Junior Formation Master has a teacher?”

Everyoneʼs hearts skipped a beat.

A teacher?!

Is this Junior Formation Master, the disciple of that person?!

What do you mean no clues?

What do you mean no traces?

That personʼs disciple brazenly appeared in front of them all, joined them in suppressing the Corpse King, quelled the corpse calamity, and even chatted and dined with them.

Before leaving, they even bid him farewell??

The cultivators on site struggled to accept this reality.

After a while, someone finally said:

”Could it be that Mr. Zhuang has been in the city all the time?”

”You should call him ʼthat person,ʼ not Mr. Zhuang, otherwise heʼll know.”

”By calling him that way, he wonʼt know?”

The crowd fell silent, and then they all sighed.

Let it be, Mr. Zhuang it is.

Them calling ”that person” is just like deceiving themselves by covering their ears while stealing bells...

”Do you remember when the young gentleman left South Yue City in a carriage pulled by that big white horse, was Mr. Zhuang... could he have been in the carriage...”

These words were better left unsaid.

Once spoken, everyoneʼs hearts were filled with bitterness and profound regret.

Your journey continues with empire

The person they were looking for was right before their eyes, who left in front of them in a carriage.

And they bid him farewell without knowing anything.

One cultivator was incredulous, ”Impossible, it canʼt be such a coincidence.”

Yet the gaunt elder shook his head, ”With Qi Refinement cultivation, able to draw a First Grade Ultimate Formation, aside from Mr. Zhuang, no one else can teach such a disciple.”

Young Master Yunʼs expression also carried a touch of emotion.

”Besides,” the gaunt elder continued, ”this young gentleman also has a pair of siblings with the surname Bai as fellow disciples.”

”These two young cultivators have astonishing talent, yet they are inscrutable.”

”The girl is fierce and dignified, unassuming, but certainly not simple. As for the young boy...”

The gaunt elderʼs gaze filled with deep wariness, ”The Taoist Skill he uses is the Returning Dragon Spear!”

”The method of the dragon, the Bai Family from Qian State, I suppose I donʼt need to say much, you all should understand what that implies...”

The hearts of everyone present trembled.

The Bai Family from Qian State, thatʼs truly a behemoth...

”But what does the Bai Family have to do with that person?” a cultivator asked.

The gaunt elder sighed, ”Indeed, there are some connections between the Bai Family and Mr. Zhuang, but weʼd best not inquire about it. The Bai Family is not something we can afford to provoke.”
