C255 Investigation return

Jin Sha and Lu Feng had arrived at the finish line together, and they had walked the same route, so Niu Ben had reason to believe that they had always been together.

But now, Jin Sha had four Communication Stone and Lu Feng only had one, this made Niu Ben feel weird.

Through the treatment on Lu Feng, Niu Ben discovered that whether it was the other party's physique or the strength of the Spiritual Energy, their strength far surpassed that of ordinary Early Period of Spirit Gathering Stage Expert, so it was simply impossible for them to only obtain one piece of the Communication Stone.

"There's definitely something fishy going on here!" Niu Ben said in a heavy voice.

He had to investigate this matter clearly, since Lu Feng's results would directly affect his position in the sect.

If it was just a normal person, then it would be good enough for them to be able to enter the sect. But for people like Lu Feng, it would only be possible for their growth in the sect would be greater after they possessed a certain status.

And if Lu Feng was really an exceptional genius, then the better his development would be, the better luck he would have to the entire sect.

Just like this, after Niu Ben secretly asked around for the situation, he found out that the person who was collecting Communication Stone in the plaza was an outer disciple of Skysword Sect.

And the reason why Lu Feng was injured by Hua Mo seemed to have something to do with him.

As there were only a few days left, the competition had already ended. Therefore, without saying anything, Niu Ben found the Lu Tianyi who was still recovering.

Lu Tianyi was injured by Hua Mo, but he did not have anyone else to help him heal his injuries, thus his injuries were a little worse than Lu Feng's.

"Cow …" Elder Niu! "

When Lu Tianyi opened the door and saw Niu Ben standing in front of him, he was immediately shocked.

Niu Ben originally had a serious and terrifying face, but now that he had a straight face, it was even more frightening.

"Lu Tianyi right? I want to find you to understand a bit more about this!" Niu Ben said expressionlessly.

"It's done …" Get to know the situation? " Lu Tianyi was startled, he did not understand what the other party meant.

"You can hide it from me, but I hope you can hide it from me. Otherwise, if I find you lying, don't blame me for being rude!" Niu Ben said in a heavy voice.

As he spoke, a strong aura loomed.

With Niu Ben's cultivation, even if he only revealed a little bit of his aura, it was enough to make Lu Tianyi feel good.

So when he was suppressed by this faint imposing aura, Lu Tianyi's expression instantly became ugly.

Of course, Lu Tianyi was a disciple of the Skysword Sect. Even though he was only an outer sect disciple, it was impossible for Niu Ben to kill him for no reason.

"Elder Niu, what do you want to ask me?" Lu Tianyi took a deep breath to resist the pressure and asked.

"Let me ask you, what happened between you and Lu Feng?" Niu Ben asked.

He did not directly ask the Communication Stone about it, but turned and asked about their relationship.

"Lu Feng?"

Lu Tianyi frowned, why did this Skyfire Sect elder ask Lu Feng? Could it be that he wanted to understand it through himself?

"Elder Niu, Lu Feng and I both came from the Lu Family …" Lu Tianyi began to recount the story to Niu Ben bit by bit.

Of course, when he spoke of the truth, he had also exaggerated it a little, so when he spoke of Lu Feng, he became a hypocrite with a questionable personality, a truly despicable person.

"Elder Niu, this is what happened, so when he saw me, he wanted to kill me and silence me. Luckily, Elder Hua appeared in time, otherwise, I would definitely have been killed by him!" Lu Tianyi said in a heavy voice.

"Is that true?"

Listening to Lu Tianyi speak, Niu Ben raised his eyebrows slightly. Although the other party seemed to be speaking the truth, he still felt that there was a problem here.

"Elder Niu, how would I dare to lie to you? Everything I said was true, I was almost killed by Lu Feng back then, and fortunately, I managed to escape with my life." Lu Tianyi said.

"Alright, I understand!" Niu Ben nodded slightly.

He did not question Lu Tianyi's words, and only said a few words before leaving.

Lu Tianyi did not know why Niu Ben had asked him such questions, but he had previously saved Lu Feng, and maybe he had wanted to recruit Lu Feng into his Skyfire Sect.

However, now that they were disturbed by him, he probably wouldn't have such thoughts. After all, if someone with a questionable character entered the sect, they would be in danger of becoming invisible.

When Niu Ben left Lu Tianyi's room, he once again went to find Lu Feng and learn the situation from him.

"Hmm?"

When he heard another version from Lu Feng, Niu Ben silently nodded in his heart.

Although the two versions were completely different, Niu Ben already had a rough understanding of it.

Rather than believing in Lu Tianyi's version, Niu Ben felt that what Lu Feng said was more true. Of course, as to who was the real fake one, it was not easy for him to tell.

Of course, Niu Ben had his own ways of knowing who was lying.

Although he did not know who had lied, he was certain that Lu Feng's Communication Stone was related to Lu Tianyi, and that was the main objective of his investigation.

When another three days had passed, there was only one day left until the deadline. In other words, those who reached the finish line after that day would be eliminated.

"Huo Wu, where are you?"

Lu Feng stood on the plaza and looked around, because he did not know which side of the plaza Huo Wu and the others would walk towards.

After three more days of rest, Lu Feng was more or less alright, but at this time, he was not happy at all, because not a single one of them had reached the finish line yet.

By Lu Feng's side, Jin Sha had always been accompanying him. Although there were a few other people that had smoothly reached the end of their Liu-li Dynasty, she did not intend to meet up with those people.

"Lu Feng, you don't have to worry, I believe they will do as they please!" Jin Sha consoled.

Of course, Lu Feng naturally understood the meaning behind Jin Sha's words of consolation. How could he not be worried?

Huo Wu and his group of four had quite a deep relationship with Lu Feng, and adding the degree of danger they faced along the way, Lu Feng would definitely not be able to let go of their silhouettes even if he were to not be able to see them.

"Lu Feng, quickly look over there!"

After another two hours, Jin Sha's voice sounded.

Towards Huo Wu and the others, Jin Sha had seen them a few times, so when she saw two similar figures, she immediately looked towards another direction and called out to Lu Feng.

Hearing Jin Sha's words, Lu Feng hurriedly turned around, and at this time, four slightly miserable figures appeared in his line of sight.

Amongst the four of them, two of the figures caused Lu Feng to involuntarily freeze in place, and immediately, a smile appeared on his face.

"Lu Feng!"

When Lu Feng looked at the two, he saw that their eyes were also fixated on Lu Feng's body, and they couldn't help but cry out in alarm.

"Huo Wu, Wang Kai!"

Lu Feng took a deep breath, and finally brought the two of them back.

"Damn, we've finally reached the end. This match is too terrifying!" When Wang Kai walked to the plaza, he immediately fell down and sat on the ground.

"Lu Feng, I can be considered to have safely sent Huo Wu to the finish line, how is it? I'm not lying to you right!" After panting a few times, Wang Kai grinned at Lu Feng.

No matter how many dangers and difficulties he encountered along the way, it was all worth it now that he had reached the end.

"You're amazing!"

Seeing Wang Kai laughing so happily, Lu Feng also laughed.

"Alright, you guys should go and have a good rest first. We'll talk in detail when you're done!" Lu Feng said.

Although Wang Kai and Huo Wu looked to be fine, their auras were weak, and should have been caused by their injuries and exhaustion.

"Okay, by the way, Lu Feng, where are Lin Xuan and Ji Bing? have they not returned yet? " Wang Kai stood up from the ground, and then, softly asked.

"Not yet!"

Lu Feng sighed helplessly.

Although Lin Xuan and the rest had the largest numbers to begin with, having more people did not mean that it was safe. In front of absolute danger, numbers obviously did not have any effect.

"You guys can go rest first. If they come back, I'll go inform you!" Lu Feng said.

"Oh, got it!"

Wang Kai's eyes dimmed a little. It had been a difficult journey, so he was very clear about how dangerous the journey was.

Therefore, if they couldn't see them coming back, then the odds were against them.

Although Wang Kai and Lin Xuan would quarrel from time to time, it was precisely because of this that the relationship between the two of them was the best among the five of them.

Seeing Wang Kai like this, Lu Feng did not say anything, and immediately after, Huo Wu and Wang Kai left the plaza to rest.

Just like this, time slowly passed by. Lu Feng and Jin Sha, who were standing in the plaza, would occasionally see one or two figures return.

However, these people were not people they needed to wait for, so when they didn't see one or two figures, the expression on Lu Feng's face constantly changed.

In the blink of an eye, the sky began to darken. According to the rules of the competition, if the sky darkened, then the competition would be called off. Those who didn't return in time would be eliminated.

However, Lu Feng was still waiting on the plaza. Even if Lin Xuan and Ji Bing didn't return in time, he hoped that the two of them would appear before him alive.

"Ji Bing, hold on a little longer, we will reach the finishing point soon, don't let anything happen to us!"

However, not too far away from the plaza, a figure could be seen striding forward with great difficulty while carrying another on his back.

"Lin Xuan, there's not much time left, just put me down, it's not easy walking here, I hope you won't lose your chance to enter the sect because of me!" The pale Ji Bing muttered.

"What nonsense are you talking about? If I were to abandon you halfway, do you think that Lu Feng and the others would let me go? "Besides, am I the kind of person to abandon my comrades?" Lin Xuan said in a heavy voice.

As he was speaking, he raised his head and looked ahead. Soon, they would reach the end point soon.

Perhaps he had seen hope, so Lin Xuan's footsteps became faster and faster, although his current situation was not too good, and he looked like he would collapse at any moment.

However, it had taken so much effort to get here, so how could Lin Xuan give up? Thus, he gritted his teeth, and the Spiritual Energy exploded.
