Chapter 351: Three numbers, if you will not say it, then never say it
“Black falcon?”

That black bird?

Wu Shao Zhen instantly understood that the Flower Leopard Beast in front of them had come for him.

His face did not change, but his mind quickly spun, searching for a way out.

With his own strength alone, there was no way he could escape.

His gaze quietly swept over Ye Cong Xin beside him.

If he wanted to get away, he would have to take a gamble.

“Qing Qing, go, hurry. I will hold him back!” Wu Shao Zhen took a step forward to stand in front of Ye Cong Xin, looking as if he was ready to die.

Looking at his back, Ye Cong Xin cursed in her heart: [Useless waste.]

With Wu Shao Zhen’s current cultivation level, he was nothing more than one paw swipe to that fat flower leopard.

However, his actions did make her see hope again of being able to Plunder Fate.

She had already spent too much time on Wu Shao Zhen, and unless there was no other choice, she did not want to give up.

“Shao Zhen, I will never abandon you!”

“Qing Qing!”

“Shao Zhen!”

Hua Tu watched the two of them acting all sticky and affectionate, looking thoughtful.

Was this not just like the scenes he had read in storybooks?

So they were not made up after all.

But Yu Zhao did not seem to go for this at all…

In the brief moment Hua Tu was distracted, Ye Cong Xin swung her right hand forward from behind her back.

“Explode!”

Dust and smoke spread everywhere.

An invisible force quickly spread over Hua Tu’s head, then rapidly formed a silver cage that trapped him inside.

Hua Tu felt as if his body was bearing the weight of a mountain. He could not move, and even bending a finger was very difficult.

“Roar!”

Hua Tu’s light golden eyes were filled with rage as he let out an unwilling roar.

“Qing Qing, this is…” Shock flashed in Wu Shao Zhen’s eyes.

“Hurry, the Heaven and Earth Cage will not hold it for long,” Ye Cong Xin urged. She had no intention of explaining.

As the once most favored Disciple of Lone Moon Peak, she naturally had more than a few trump cards in her hands.

Unwilling, Wu Shao Zhen glanced at Hua Tu.

If he could devour this flower leopard’s flesh and blood, his cultivation level would surely skyrocket.

Unfortunately…

He only sighed inwardly, then quickly retreated together with Ye Cong Xin.

Even after they had gone far away, they could still faintly hear the flower leopard’s angry roars.

…

“Fellow Daoist Yu…” Si Tu Yu walked up to Yu Zhao, looking troubled.

Before she could speak, Yu Zhao already understood why she had come and said: “We will search for three more days. If we still cannot find it after three days, we will stop.”

Si Tu Yu let out a long breath of relief.

The next moment, she realized her reaction was a bit too obvious and hurried to explain: “Fellow Daoist Yu, I did not mean anything else by it.”

“Fellow Daoist Si Tu, there is no need to explain. I understand,” Yu Zhao said.

Under the scorching sun, they had searched the same area for seven or eight days in a row with no clues at all. Anyone would start to doubt.

Yu Zhao could completely understand that Si Tu Yu, who represented the Si Tu Clan, had come to talk with her.

She was also very anxious.

Bai Ran was still in deep sleep with no sign of waking, but at least the harsh environment was not affecting it.

That was the only good news for now.

After sending Si Tu Yu off, Ji Han Zhou walked over.

Yu Zhao had thought he had come for the same reason as Si Tu Yu, but his first words were actually: “Senior Sister Yu, are you alright?”

The tightness in Yu Zhao’s brows eased a little and she smiled faintly: “I am fine.”

Ji Han Zhou did not believe her.

He knew why Senior Sister Yu had come and knew that Bai Ran’s condition was unclear. Senior Sister Yu must be under huge pressure right now.

He wanted to comfort Yu Zhao with a few words, but when he thought about it, it seemed like he could not help with anything at all, so he dropped his head in frustration.

Not far away, Long Fei Fei’s eyes turned when she saw this.

It was finally her turn to go on stage.

“Cough, cough!” She coughed loudly twice.

No one paid attention.

Her willow brows arched as she called: “Yu Zhao!”

Yu Zhao looked over coldly.

For some reason, Long Fei Fei’s heart trembled. She gave a flattering smile and said: “I have something to say.”

Yu Zhao gave a slight nod.

Long Fei Fei trotted over.

“Speak,” Yu Zhao said.

Long Fei Fei, who remembered the tasty things but not the beatings, boldly made a demand of Yu Zhao: “First remove that illusion art you put on me, then I will think about whether I want to talk.”

Ji Han Zhou let out a snort of laughter.

Long Fei Fei was afraid of Yu Zhao, but she was not afraid of a small Golden Core Sword Cultivator, so she glared hard at Ji Han Zhou. When she turned back to Yu Zhao, her face was full of smiles.

Yu Zhao held up three fingers.

“Three counts. If you do not want to talk, then never say it. Three.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Zhao put one finger down.

Long Fei Fei’s expression changed greatly.

“Two.”

Long Fei Fei’s eyes went wide.

“One…”

“Stop, stop, I will say it!” Long Fei Fei rushed forward and grabbed Yu Zhao’s last finger, her heart pounding from fear.

Ji Han Zhou curled his lips.

He had long guessed this would be the result.

“I do not know where the address you have came from,” Long Fei Fei said, “but I can tell you for sure that it is wrong. Even if you keep staying here, you will not find anything.”

“How did you see that?” Yu Zhao asked.

Long Fei Fei shouted in an exaggerated way: “I am the thirty eighth generation successor of the Lightfinger Sect. I can tell at a glance which places have treasures and which places are trash!”

“So you watched me waste time here on purpose?” Yu Zhao’s tone was calm and gave no hint of joy or anger, but Long Fei Fei still shivered.

“No, I was just bragging. I only just found out too, really!” Long Fei Fei’s skill in changing with the wind was no worse than her stealing skills, and she immediately changed her words.

Yu Zhao took a scroll out from her storage space and said: “Then look and see where the place recorded on this is.”

Long Fei Fei’s eyes lit up when she saw the scroll.

She took the scroll while muttering: “You should have shown me earlier. Then we would not have wasted time here…”

“You…” Ji Han Zhou was so angry at her complaint that his lungs hurt.

She had clearly seen long ago that there was a problem with the location, yet she had not pointed it out, and now she still had the nerve to blame Senior Sister Yu.

“Junior Brother Ji.” Yu Zhao interrupted Ji Han Zhou.

Now was not the time to argue about who was right or wrong. Finding the Ancient Dao Field Ruins as soon as possible was what mattered.

Long Fei Fei let out a proud little hum, then buried her head in the scroll, occasionally using her finger to trace on it.

She was usually all grins and jokes, acting like nothing ever weighed on her heart, but when she suddenly got serious, she actually had a bit of presence.

In less than the time it took for one stick of incense to burn, Long Fei Fei lifted her head and said: “I know where the real location is.”

“How so?” Yu Zhao asked.

Pointing at the scroll, Long Fei Fei explained: “Actually, the direction you came from was not wrong, but you ignored one detail. Do the lines on here look a bit strange to you? That is because this is actually a mirror image. The real map should be viewed in reverse.”

Yu Zhao’s gaze moved along with Long Fei Fei’s finger and finally landed on the mark representing the Desert of Lost Souls. She suddenly understood.

No wonder Elder Gu had never been able to find the entrance to the Ancient Dao Field Ruins. They had been looking in the wrong place from the start.

And the place where Lou Yu Shan had gone missing might also not be here, but at the real ruins.

Long Fei Fei really was an expert at treasure hunting, spotting the problem in such a short time.
