Chapter 437 Reunion with Elder Li
"What do you want?" Leng Yun asked calmly.
"Hmph, I'll report to Elder Huang Gua right now and make sure you die a horrible death!" Ru Qing said with a sinister smile.
"Do you think you have a chance to report it?" Leng Yun asked.
"You—what do you mean?" Ru Qing suddenly sensed a murderous aura. "Are you going to kill me?"
Leng Yun nodded indifferently, and a small golden crossbow appeared in his hand.
"No—don't kill me! I won't say anything, please spare me!" Ru Qing was only now feeling fear; he hadn't expected Leng Yun to be so ruthless and decisive.
"I don't believe you. Only the dead can keep their mouths shut, and besides, aren't you going to kill me too?" Leng Yun said calmly. "Then why would I spare you?"
Seeing that her pleas for mercy were ineffective, Ruqing tried to shout to summon someone to come over.
But just as he opened his mouth, before he could utter a sound, a golden light flashed, and the next second his body was pierced through, turning him into experience points.
The entire night was in chaos at the Farewell Gate, with people running around searching for the murderer.
It wasn't until the next day that someone discovered the fugitive had escaped!
Just like on the first day, many disciples wanted to go to the stone archway to see what was inside.
But when they reached the stone archway, they discovered Ruqing's corpse!
There are still dead people here!
Someone shouted something, immediately attracting the attention of several elders.
The leader was Huang Gua. When he saw that there were even dead people, he couldn't help but turn red with anger.
"Damn it, who dares to cause trouble at our Farewell Gate?!" Huang Gua said angrily.
Immediately, the disciples around them began to discuss among themselves. They had not expected that even their eldest disciple, Ru Qing, had been killed, and everyone felt insecure.
“Elder Huang, this disciple must have seen something to be killed,” an elder said.
Huang Gua nodded: "Yes, our Separation Gate is heavily guarded. To release prisoners and steal the treasure vault, it's very likely that someone from within is behind it!"
“That’s right, it’s very likely that he was among these inner disciples. When he finished everything and returned to the stone archway, Ru Qing saw him!” another elder said.
Huang Gua suddenly looked up and scanned all the disciples present, his eyes icy cold: "Tell everyone to assemble in the main hall of the Farewell Gate!"
At Huang Gua's command, all the disciples were summoned to the main hall, and Leng Yun mingled among them.
At this moment, all the elders stood in front of the hall, and sitting in the center of the hall was none other than Huang Pan, his face extremely cold.
Huang Gua stood before the crowd, equally furious.
"As you all probably already know, someone dared to tamper with our Separation Gate. This person is very likely among you disciples. I will check each and every one of you!" Huang Gua said.
For a moment, the disciples were filled with anxiety. They looked around, but all they saw were familiar faces; there were no unfamiliar ones.
After that, Huang Gua checked each of his disciples one by one.
Huang Pan remained silent throughout the entire process, simply sitting quietly in the chair in front, watching Huang Gua's actions.
Lun Dao Lengyun walked up to Huang Gua.
Huang Gua scrutinized Leng Yun closely, but thanks to the effect of the 'face mask' artifact, he couldn't detect the slightest flaw.
“Next!” Huang Gua said.
It took Huang Gua about an hour to check all his disciples, but he still found nothing unusual.
"How could this be?" Huang Gua muttered to himself in confusion.
Leng Yun watched Huang Gua with amusement from the crowd. Suddenly, he saw the latter's eyes light up, as if he had remembered something.
Then, Huang Gua walked up to Huang Pan.
"Sect Master, it's very likely that bastard Leng Yun!" Huang Gua said.
Huang Pan was slightly surprised when he heard Leng Yun's name: "That kid, does he have such abilities?"
Huang Gua shook his head: "I don't know either, but it's already very abnormal that he hasn't come to exchange for the antidote at this point."
Huang Pan nodded: "If it really is him, I will tear him to pieces!"
"He must have used some kind of treasure that we don't know about. Don't forget, the resources he has are the envy of many." Huang Gua thought about it and it made more and more sense.
Leng Yun smiled bitterly to himself: "It seems that Huang Gua has been my enemy for so long that he actually knows me quite well."
"Hmph! Keep strengthening the defenses, we must catch this kid!" Huang Pan said viciously.
The number of guards at the farewell gate was increased once again.
Now, all the disciples are filled with fear, afraid that they will be the next to die. Some of the more timid ones don't even dare to leave the house.
The crowd was abuzz with discussion, and Huang Gua's words in the hall became increasingly uncanny.
In the most popular version, Leng Yun has become an invisible monster, which is why he was able to sneak into the Separation Gate without anyone noticing.
On the third night, Leng Yun entered the crescent archway again.
Although the number of guards had increased considerably, Leng Yun's speed prevented them from detecting him.
Leng Yun continued searching the room from yesterday and finally found Elder Li's room after half an hour of searching.
At this moment, Elder Li was lying on the bed with a woman specially brought by the Separation Sect beside him, about to commit an illicit act.
With a whoosh, Leng Yun jumped down from the roof and landed inside the house.
At the same time, two streaks of fire flew past his hand.
A burst of flame struck the woman, and she instantly lost consciousness.
The other flame hovered above Elder Li's head.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and it wasn't until Leng Yun walked into Elder Li's room that the latter reacted.
Although he didn't recognize Leng Yun's appearance, Elder Li, being an alchemist himself, immediately recognized that it was Leng Yun's flame.
"You—how did you get in!" Elder Li asked in alarm.
But he dared not shout, for he knew that before he could utter a sound, the flame above his head would kill him.
"Where's the antidote?" Leng Yun asked.
"Don't kill me, and I'll tell you where the antidote is!" Elder Li said in terror.
Leng Yun gave a soft snort, and with a thought, a ball of cyan flame emanated from his palm, instantly forming a fiery air shield that enveloped him and Elder Li.
The flames were extremely hot, especially inside the air shield, where the air was distorted, and Elder Li was instantly covered in sweat.
The air around the flames had been completely evaporated, creating a vacuum zone.
"You can shout as much as you want; this air shield can completely block your voice," Leng Yun said calmly.
Then, he raised his right hand, and on his palm, a thin white line-like mark was faintly emitting a dazzling light.
