2436 The Source Of The Spiritual Power 5 (1/2)

It was evident from her tone that Gu Xijiu was very scornful. Hesitantly, Yun Yanli stared at her with a serious expression. ”Xijiu, did you suspect that I was the one who summoned the bats?”

Gu Xijiu denied his accusation. ”I did not.” It was true that she did not suspect that he had caused the commotion. She was sure that he did! However, she could not point that out. She could not risk shedding all the pretenses at this time.

Yun Yanli turned his attention to Di Fuyi instead. ”Mr. Di seemed at ease, even in such a dangerous moment.” He did not see Di Fuyi helping Gu Xijiu earlier.

Di Fuyi confidently flicked his sleeves. ”You are right. If I helped, I would not be able to witness your charm.”

Yun Yanli did not know what to answer.

Soon, Di Fuyi and Gu Xijiu returned to their carriage. Their reason for doing so was that Mr. Di was obsessed with hygiene. He had just cleaned the wagon, so he was reluctant to switch. What frustrated Yun Yanli the most was Gu Xijiu's unquestioned submission towards Di Fuyi's every request. When he asked to return, she willingly agreed and followed him back to the carriage without questioning his intentions.

Yun Yanli was very annoyed but did not dare to act at this moment.

The incident was finally over, and all the carriages continued their journey.

Yun Yanli looked at the carriage before him and was puzzled. He did not summon the Bloody Bats. They appeared on their own. However, he knew about the characteristics of the bat. These bats were able to tell when an immense source of spiritual power appeared. They were attracted to spiritual power like flies are attracted to garbage, and could easily track the source within miles.

He once used the bats to find sources of spiritual power, and they never let him down. The stronger the spiritual power, the more bats one could expect to be present. The scary part was that he had never seen so many bats going after one source of spiritual power before.

Obviously, Gu Xijiu and Di Fuyi possessed a strong source of spiritual power. They must have revealed some of their spiritual power by accident, thus attracting the Bloody Bats. Finally, the bats left as soon as they kept away their spiritual power. What was the source of the spiritual power that they had?
