Chapter 84 Melancholy and Cold-Hearted
Wang Laoba clapped his hands, his face flushed with excitement: "That's right! How come I didn't think of that? You're so thoughtful. So what should we do now?"
"Wait, keep waiting! Keep a close eye on that senior's movements."
Qin Zhen scanned the area with his divine sense, but found nothing.
Wang Laoba nodded, recalling the scene three days ago when his senior bid farewell to the young girl.
The seventh day has arrived in the blink of an eye.
Wang Laoba paced anxiously, "Why hasn't he come out yet? Why isn't the senior making any noise either?"
Qin Zhen frowned, doubting that his previous deduction was wrong.
You Yu noticed their emotions and wanted to speak, but seeing that they didn't want to talk to him, he quickly shut up.
half a month later.
You Yu looked up at the area of poisonous fog, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the poisonous fog was thinner than before. However, since the difference wasn't significant, he assumed he was mistaken.
Wang Laoba had given up all hope for Huangmao Yatou.
Qin Zhen searched for half a month but couldn't find his senior. He suspected that his senior must have left on important business, so he gave up the idea of asking the young girl for help.
Another half month passed.
You Yu stopped cultivating and looked towards the poisonous fog area. This time, he could confirm that the poisonous fog was indeed not as thick as it had been a month ago.
He walked toward the two anxious people with a serious expression.
Wang Laoba originally wanted to tell him to stop bothering him, but when he caught a glimpse of that cold and ruthless face, his body trembled involuntarily, and he was so frightened by the cold face that he took a few steps back.
You Yu slightly raised her eyes.
Wang Laoba lowered his head in fear, not daring to look.
Qin Zhen's brows, which had been furrowed for the past month, relaxed, and a slight smile appeared on his lips. He said respectfully, "You've arrived! Is there a solution?"
You Yu is the second most melancholic and cold-hearted of the Eight Eccentrics of the Misty Sky, second only to that one.
He has two forms. One is that he is usually hesitant and melancholy, and can only exert the strength of the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage.
Another type is cold-blooded and ruthless, killing without shedding blood. He once single-handedly fought two Nascent Soul stage cultivators and turned defeat into victory.
Before anyone could react, they dismembered the two men into eight pieces and burned them to ashes.
When dismembering him, he forced his severely injured body to move swiftly and decisively, as if he were chopping firewood, without a trace of expression.
After burning the two to ashes, he finally collapsed from exhaustion.
It was only then that everyone discovered another side of You Yu.
From then on, no one dared to go too far in mocking You Yu, because they never knew when the ruthless "You Yu" would appear and strike back at those who bullied him.
One strike would be enough to kill eighty percent of the people on the Misty Continent.
You Yu opened her hands, her palms shimmering with green fluorescence.
Qin Zhen raised an eyebrow: "Is this the Shadow Chaser Queen?"
"Hmm, the larvae are on her, the poisonous mist is thinning! Let's wait a little longer!"
After speaking simply and clearly, You Yu tilted her head and closed her eyes.
Qin Zhen quickly helped the man up to prevent him from falling to the ground.
He silently counted to thirty in his mind and turned to look at You Yu next to him.
Sure enough, he opened his melancholy and hesitant eyes, and his lips parted slightly.
"You mean that the blond girl is alright?"
When You Yu saw that Qin Zhen had guessed what he wanted to say, his eyes lit up with immense joy, as if to say, "How did you know? You're amazing!"
Qin Zhen coughed awkwardly and turned his head away from him.
"Since she's alright, let's wait a little longer!"
Looking up at the toxic fog zone, has the fog really thinned out?
Why can't I tell?
He shook his head. "You Yu" had no reason to lie to him; it must be true.
"Qin Zhen, should we listen to him and wait a bit longer, or..."
Wang Laoba glanced at You Yu cautiously.
You Yu should have turned back to normal by now, right? This dazed look can't be him.
He patted his chest and let out a long sigh of relief.
Thank goodness!
"Are there any other options besides waiting?"
Old Wang nodded. Indeed, they had long since run out of other options, otherwise they wouldn't have placed all their hopes on a young girl.
Following Qin Zhen's gaze, he whispered, "Do you think the poisonous fog has really thinned out? Why can't I feel anything?"
"Isn't it normal that you don't feel anything?"
It's not that Qin Zhen wants to belittle anyone, but Wang Laoba is the most reckless of the eight oddballs. He's not meticulous enough and is easily impatient. Asking him to observe would be worse than killing him.
"Alright, since he tells us to wait, let's wait. With the Shadow Chaser Queen here, there won't be any problems."
Wang Laoba looked at Qin Zhen, then at You Yu, and seeing that he had indeed returned to normal, he said:
"You Yu, when did you put the shadow-chasing bug on that blond girl?"
You Yu explained in a low voice, "After she entered the poisonous fog area, I had the Shadow Chaser Bugs hide in the underground area to look for her."
"I didn't expect you to have a backup plan. Why didn't you tell us sooner? You made us worry for so long!"
“I wanted to tell you, but you wouldn’t listen to my explanation that day and made me stay there.”
You Yu timidly pointed to the spot where she had been standing.
The two of them then remembered that there really was such a thing.
A hint of annoyance flashed in Qin Zhen's eyes.
Wang Laoba scratched his head sheepishly and said loudly, "Sorry, we thought you were just worried about that blond girl, so... hehe!"
You Yu shook her head, gave a slight smile, and indicated that it was okay.
Wang Laoba: "Hey You Yu, has the poisonous fog really thinned out?"
"Yes, at least ten percent."
Wang Laoba and Qin Zhen exchanged a glance, a glint of shrewdness flashing in their eyes.
The thinner the poisonous fog, the longer they can survive, and the greater their chances of finding the Pure Jade Silver Frost Grass.
Should we wait a little longer?
Wait!
Another month later.
"How is it? Is that blonde girl still alive?"
"Ok!"
"Where's the poisonous fog?"
"Twenty percent thin!"
Two questions asked of each other every day among the three of them.
Wang Laoba couldn't hide the joy on his face.
"Shall we go in now?"
Qin Zhen calculated the days; there was less than a month left until the deadline, and at their speed, the three of them could make it back and forth in a day.
The poisonous fog area wasn't large. With their combined cultivation levels, if they split up and searched separately, they could scour the entire area in less than seven days.
If they wait another half month, and the poisonous fog dissipates further, their chances of survival will be much greater.
"No, wait a little longer!"
The changes in the poisonous fog zone were known to more than just the three of them; Rong Lu, who was hidden in mid-air, noticed them immediately.
He had a premonition that Tu Shan was behind all of this.
The person who can give him a glimmer of hope is definitely not simple.
She loves spirit stones and values her life. The fact that she had him guarding outside means she must have a solution, but she just doesn't want him to know.
He remembered her expression at the time. Although she was very thin, the strong confidence in her eyes made him believe that she could do it.
If Tu Shan knew what he was thinking, he would definitely roll his eyes.
What the hell is this?
Is that confidence, sister?
Sister, that's ignorance!
My sister's confidence stems from her ability to meet challenges head-on.
Just as he expected, she was living a very comfortable life inside.
He raised his hand and looked at Tu Shan, who was lying on the soft couch in the transparent sphere in front of him, talking in his sleep. His eyes were slightly curved and his eyebrows were slightly raised.
Suddenly, countless reddish-brown tentacles appeared around her and attacked the soft couch.
