There were all sorts of unknown things around him, and all of them could be life-threatening. The only thing that made Lin Yi feel at ease was that the Jade no longer alerted him. Chu bubai aside, there was one thing he was sure of-he was safe for now.

But temporary safety didn't mean permanent safety. Lin Yi didn't want to stay in the same place for too long, but he also wanted to know what Chu bubai was up to. He held Huang xiaotao's hand tightly and walked forward carefully.

He'd only taken a few steps when the Jade started sending him signals again-the further he went, the stronger the signals got. Lin Yi was sure now that this place wasn't normal, and there was a 100% chance that something was up ahead!

After understanding this, Lin Yi stopped moving forward and stopped again with Huang xiaotao.

"We're not leaving?" Huang xiaotao turned to look at Lin Yi in surprise.

"Right, we're not leaving." Lin Yi nodded. He wasn't an idiot. He knew that there was a Dragon's pool or a Tiger's Den in front of him, but he still brought Huang xiaotao along. That wasn't daring, that was stupid.

"Then, we ..." Huang xiaotao looked at the fog around them and the ghostly figures that flashed past from time to time. She could not help but shrink her neck.

"It's fine. We'll just stay here. There's no danger. " Lin Yi smiled comfortingly-staying where he was meant that he'd be on his guard, and the Jade could warn him in advance. There was nothing to be afraid of.

"Alright," he said. Huang xiaotao nodded obediently. Although she was still nervous, she would do as Lin Yi said.

Time passed by bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye, the sky had already begun to turn bright, indicating that an entire night had passed. However, the fog had not dissipated because of this. Compared to the night, the visibility was slightly better, but it was very limited.

To Lin Yi's surprise, he and Huang xiaotao waited here for an entire night, but they didn't encounter any situation or danger. However, there was no news from those people. Chu bubai and Guo dengtao seemed to have really disappeared into thin air.

Lin Yi was troubled, but he didn't panic. As an assassin, patience was something he didn't lack.

Huang xiaotao, who was with him, was a little afraid of the strange and evil environment around her because of her girly nature. However, she had been doing trial missions for the past few years, so her patience was naturally first-class.

The two of them waited for the entire night, but they did not show any signs of impatience. After another three to four hours, it was probably noon.

"Lin Yi, should we just leave?" Huang Xiao Tao looked at Lin Yi with wide eyes. It wasn't that her patience had run out, but this place was just too scary, especially when she could see ghostly shadows flashing from time to time, but she couldn't figure out what it was. The more she thought about it, the more her scalp went numb and her heart was in a panic.

"Let's wait a little longer," Lin Yi comforted Huang xiaotao as he pulled her into his arms. Now that things had developed to this point, turning around and leaving was indeed the safest way. After all, they had the map Chu bubai gave them, and they had already taken the route once. It shouldn't be a problem to go back the way they came.

But Lin Yi didn't want to give up just like that. It would've been fine if he didn't smell the baby ginseng's scent, but he was sure that there was baby ginseng around!

No one would be willing to turn around and leave because of unknown threat. Even if they successfully escaped, they would definitely regret it.

Rather than regretting it, he might as well wait and see. Of course, even if he wasn't willing to leave just like that, Lin Yi wouldn't take Huang xiaotao to risk it. He still knew what to do.

"Oh." Huang xiaotao didn't say anything else and continued to wait quietly while leaning on Lin Yi.

In the blink of an eye, another ten to ten hours had passed. The sky was dark again, and the surroundings were dark and eerie. Lin Yi and Lin Yi still didn't hear from them. There was no news from the people in front of them.

Even Lin Yi, who was confident at first, was starting to get suspicious.

Could it be that the ghost fog formation that Chu bubai mentioned was really in front? Although there was indeed danger, it would be fine as long as they rushed over? As for Chu bubai and Guo dengtao, could it be that they had left via another route after obtaining the baby ginseng?

Lin Yi's mind was filled with question marks, and he lost confidence in his original judgment. He even felt that if he continued to wait here, he might not get anything in a few days!

Although it was safe for now, if time went on, who knew what would come out of this place? they had already waited for a day and a night. If they continued to wait, it would probably be in vain.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yi finally made up his mind to bring Huang xiaotao back first. However, just as he was about to talk to Huang xiaotao, he suddenly heard messy footsteps and heavy breathing not far away from the fog!

Lin Yi and Huang Xiao Tao's hearts tightened. The two looked at each other and quickly mobilized the Qi in their bodies. They were on full alert while trying to sense the situation ahead.

In the thick fog, not far ahead, a vague figure appeared!

Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao were shocked at the same time. It was only a rough outline, but they had been following this person these days.

The person in the fog was Chu bubai, who had disappeared for an entire day and night!

At this moment, Chu bubai was madly running towards Lin Yi and Lin Yi's direction, as if his life depended on it. It seemed like something was chasing him.

He was a late-stage golden core Master, but he was being chased to the point where his steps were messed up. Even if they couldn't see his face clearly, Lin Yi and Huang xiaotao could clearly feel his panic at the moment. It was simply unbelievable.

Lin Yi couldn't help but wonder who was behind Chu bubai.

Chu bubai didn't seem like a fake. Judging from his aura, he wasn't a weakling even among the late jiedan stage experts of the same level. To be able to make him so embarrassed, could it be that he was a powerful existence of the Yuanying stage?

Lin Yi and Lin Yi were still in a daze when they heard Chu bubai mumbling to himself in disbelief as he fled madly,"Phew! That shouldn't be the case! As long as the Golden cores of five jiedan stage experts were used as sacrifices, this ginseng would no longer have any offensive power. This was what Grandpa said personally, there couldn't be any mistake! When I controlled those devil ghost symbols, I should have already lured them over. Why are they still ... Ga!"

The voice stopped abruptly with an extremely shrill scream. Following that, the figure that was getting closer and closer to Lin Yi and Lin Yi was attacked by some kind of powerful force and turned into a bloody mist with a bang! (To be continued.)
