Chapter 195: Shock

The mist was surging.

This made them feel a little strange.

Especially at the source of the mist, there was actually a figure appearing.

After seeing the figure, they found that the situation was no longer strange. Someone was controlling the mist.

Or rather, the mist had surged because of this person.

The three of them felt their hearts tighten, and they subconsciously retreated some distance, because no one knew who this person was.

But the probability of danger was not low.

As the mist slowly dispersed, it felt like it was giving way to that person.

The mist that they had never been able to disperse was giving way to this person who had suddenly appeared. How could they remain calm?

Furthermore, that person was coming towards them.

For a moment, the three of them held their breaths and hid in a corner, not daring to make any movements, as if they were afraid of being seen by this Senior who had suddenly appeared.

They would rather be trapped here than be taken away by strangers.

The three of them were fearful.

They hoped that it was their Senior Brother, but it didn’t seem like it.

The mist billowed, as if wherever that person went, the mist would submit and retreat.

Furthermore, the maze formation was also retreating from this person.

There was an array formation here.

However, the array formation was completely useless and was actually avoiding this person.

They were even more afraid now.

They had no idea who this powerful senior was.

However, that person kept approaching them. The mist on their side was also retreating.

They were really going to die.

This was their first thought.

Such a person whose strength had completely exceeded their understanding could easily crush them, right?

The mist dispersed.

“Close your eyes and don’t look.”

Zhou Shu immediately said. Jin Yu and the rest understood and closed their eyes.

“Senior, we are only three Golden Cores. Please let us go.”

“Senior, we have some spirit stones here. We’ll give them all to you.”

“Senior, we didn’t see anything.”

“What are you guys doing?” Jiang Lan’s voice reached the three of them.

Seeing the three of them huddled in a corner, it was indeed a little surprising. And what did they mean?

Have they encountered robbers?

There was only Jiang Lan here.

Did he become a robber?

He shook his head and didn’t think too much about it.

Then, his calm voice continued.

“The mystic realm is about to close. Follow me.”

Only then did the three of them react. When they opened their eyes again, they saw Jiang Lan’s back.

Jiang Lan continued to walk forward while the surrounding mist continued to retreat. They found it hard to believe.

“It’s… it’s Senior Brother?” Zheng Xi was in disbelief.

“I think so.” Zhou Shu was also surprised.

They had originally thought that their Senior Brother was rather ordinary, but when they saw the surging mist and the retreating array formation, they were momentarily unable to see through this Senior Brother of theirs.

This Senior Brother seemed to be very powerful.

“He seems different from the rumors,” Jin Yu said.

The three of them remained silent.

Perhaps it was because of the difference in their realms, but they didn’t understand it either.

The Senior Brother of the Ninth Summit was an Essence Soul expert after all.

It was not something that a mere Golden Core could compare with.

But… They had seen Essence Soul seniors before. However, they had never seen a Senior Brother in the Essence Soul Realm who was able to instill fear in the mist and array formation.

Puzzled, the three of them followed Jiang Lan.

Jiang Lan, who was walking in front, didn’t care about what the three thought.

He only needed to have sufficient attainments in array formations to enter the array formation. It had nothing to do with anything else.

His high cultivation also made it easier for him to crack the maze.

The surging mist was actually the effect of the array formation.

The three were mistaken about Jiang Lan’s prowess because their cultivation level and attainments in array formations were lacking.

However, he also discovered something.

He might have been too eye-catching. It was easy for people to think that he was very powerful.

“I should be careful next time.”

After that, Jiang Lan didn’t pay much attention to it. Under normal circumstances, he was still criticized by many people.

Especially when he was under the radiance of the Goddess.

The more people looked down on him, the higher his chances of winning against the enemy.

If an expert of the same realm looked down on him, he could immediately kill them.

He would absolutely not give the other party any chance to take the fight seriously.

Soon, they arrived outside the maze. They were going to leave the mystic realm here.

However, when Jiang Lan came out, he realized that many people around him were injured.

It was probably because of the sandman they had encountered midway.

Jiang Lan had a guess.

At that time, as long as he discovered them late, his party would be easily attacked by the sandmen.

Furthermore, the other people’s attainments in array formations were insufficient. It was very difficult for them to find these sand monsters immediately.

If that was the case, there would definitely be an awkward situation.

The leader needed to bring the three of them to hide.

It would limit their movements.

Zhou Shu and the other two who came out were a little surprised.

What was going on?

Why were all of them injured?

Under normal circumstances, there would be very few casualties when there was a leader. However, everyone was injured.

Even the party leader was injured.

But they were not injured at all.

This…

Something was wrong.

“Go on out.”

Jiang Lan’s voice sounded. The power of Jiang Lan’s early-stage Essence Soul enveloped the three of them.

Then, he charged into the sky.

They entered the clouds and successfully left the mystic realm.

Zhou Shu and the other two were placed at the entrance of the Fifth Summit’s mystic realm. Jiang Lan left immediately and did not linger.

“Don’t you guys feel a little strange?” Zhou Shu asked Jin Yu and the rest.

“I feel it. Everyone seems to have experienced a bitter battle, but nothing has happened to us.” Jin Yu frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

“Let’s go ask the others,” Zheng Xi said.

The three of them immediately headed in a certain direction.

“Senior Sister Mu.” Zheng Xi came to a young lady.

This was a Senior Sister from the Third Summit.

Not only was she beautiful, she was also nice as a person.

She was also talented.

It was just that she had quite a few injuries on her body now. Fortunately, her condition was relatively stable.

“Junior Sister Zheng?” Senior Sister Mu looked at Zheng Xi and the others with surprise.

They were actually not injured.

“Senior Sister, will I affect you? We actually want to ask some questions,” Zheng Xi said softly.

Zhou Shu and Jin Yu both greeted the other party and did not say anything else.

They were not familiar with this Senior Sister.

“No problem, just ask.” Senior Sister Mu’s voice was gentle.

“What did Senior Sister encounter? Why are you all injured?” This was what Zheng Xi and the rest wanted to ask.

“You don’t know?” Senior Sister Mu was a little surprised. Then, she explained.

“There were many changes in the periphery of the maze. Array formation monsters like sand monsters and wooden puppets had made a move.

All of them had a Golden Core cultivation. In front of the party leader, they were nothing. But there were too many of them. They filled every road.

There was no way to clear all of them. If not for the leader leading us, we wouldn’t have been able to escape even if we wanted to. Did you guys not meet them? ”

The three of them shook their heads.

Then, they continued to ask around and all the answers they received were the same.

At this moment, they had a guess.

It was not that they hadn’t run into the monsters, but…

Before all the monsters arrived, they were all killed by their Senior Brother.

“Do you remember that when we walked on some roads, there seemed to be a lot of sand?” Jin Yu suddenly asked.

He was in charge of attacking and was more sensitive to such situations.

“So, it’s really Senior Brother who blocked the sand monsters alone. He had merely come late to our rescue and he was not making things difficult for us?”

Zhou Shu asked.

The three of them felt waves surging in their hearts.

Although they didn’t say anything at first, Jiang Lan had indeed came very late to their rescue. They more or less had the thought of being made a scapegoat.

Thinking about it now, they were repaying kindness with ingratitude.

They finally understood what had happened when their Senior Brother had left. But even if they wanted to sincerely thank him, they couldn’t find him.
