The seven girls were astonished. They didn't think that the savior of their group was actually from the capital.

Then, he recalled the Wen Yuan manor that he mentioned before, it seemed like it was a member of the imperial family, and its position was not low either.

In his heart, he felt more and more reverence for this benefactor.

"Let's go!" After Ling Yun finished arranging the matters of the seven young girls, he turned around and nodded to the ninth squad that was already prepared, and said.

At this time, a soft, small hand reached into his big hand and held it slightly. Lingyun tilted his head, and the girl quickly lowered her head. Her face was so red that blood seemed to be flowing out.

Ling Yun sighed lightly in his heart, and did not speak. He did not loosen his grip, and the two walked up a mountain path side by side.

This mountain path was directly facing the mountain range that looked like a Qilin lying prone. Lingyun turned his head to look at the mountain range, and only then did he slightly nod his head. His arm slightly raised, indicating that the eight squads that were already prepared not far away could proceed.

They stepped onto the mountain together. Immediately, the seemingly ordinary mountain range underwent a series of changes. The wind rose and clouds surged. Spirit energy gathered, and a thin layer of mist lingered over the mountain peak, making it seem ethereal.

In the eyes of the seven young girls, after Ling Yun and the others took that step, they had already disappeared. Soon after, the clouds enveloped the entire mountain, and they could no longer see the weeds at the foot of the mountain.

Very quickly, the clouds dissipated, revealing a small mountain. It was still as normal as before, but Ling Yun and the rest who had entered were nowhere to be seen.

They were surprised by the sudden change but didn't panic.

On the opposite side of the Qilin Mountain Range, Ling Yun and the others had only just stepped onto it when they felt a change in space.

The mountain range in front of him was no longer that craggy, overgrown, and weirdly shaped mountain range, but instead, it was instead overgrown with many strange trees. Clouds and mist curled around it, obscuring his line of sight.

On the other four sides, Lin Xie and the rest were also facing the same situation.

Swish!

With regards to this incident, Luo Feng's group of nine became shocked. Without any hesitation, they immediately formed a battle formation, the 9 palace engravings appeared beneath their feet and a huge 9 palace diagram appeared above their heads. It slowly rotated and surrounded them.

The picture of the Nine Palace, the wind and clouds fluctuated. Ancient runes flickered on it as they encompassed everything in the world. The picture of the Nine Palace, the wind and clouds fluctuated as ancient runes flickered on it as they encompassed everything in the world.

Seeing the quick reaction of the ninth squad, Lingyun's eyes flashed with a hint of satisfaction.

It seemed that after the assessment, Luo Feng had increased his power to practice the Nine Palace battle formation; otherwise, it wouldn't be so effective.

"Is this the right path?" Ling'er's somewhat puzzled voice was heard.

"Why do you say that?" Ling Yun smiled lightly, and did not answer, but asked with raised eyebrows.

Ling'er glared at him, looking around at the misty surroundings with her beautiful eyes, before slightly furrowing her brows.

Even her eyesight was greatly affected. She was inferior to ordinary mortals, and could only see for a dozen or so meters. She was the same, let alone Lingyun and the others.

The moment she entered, she released her spiritual will to investigate, but her spiritual will was also suppressed, being compressed to a radius of 30 meters.

However, what drove her mad was that her Spiritual Sense had yet to investigate anything. It was completely devoid of anything but white.

"If this was the right path, then the Black Wind Stronghold definitely wouldn't have chosen this place. This place is surrounded by clouds and even my spiritual will was obstructed …"

Ling'er frowned and spoke slowly, "If you're not careful, you'll lose yourself in it. Those bandits are unlike the well-trained men you have under you!"

"That's right!" Lingyun slightly nodded his head, and a hint of praise appeared in his eyes, he smiled, "The route they took was only the shallowest. With the help of the maze, they can hide their lair, as long as they have a map, but they will not be able to discover this mountain's secret."
