Chapter Five Hundred and Forty– Change Position!

Hearing the news that Shu Long and Ye Ling were coming to help him came to Zuo Mo through Pu Yao via the Ten Finger Prison, so Zuo Mo was in even less of a hurry to leave. He decided to stay in Shattered Stone Town to wait for Shu Long and Ye Ling. With his and A Gui’s present states, running around was the same as seeking death. It was safer to stay in Shattered Stone Town.

“A Gui, Shu Long and the others will soon come. By that time, we will be safe,” Zuo Mo said excitedly to A Gui. He hadn’t wanted to tell Lil’ Miss and the others because he didn’t want them to worry and also because he felt there wasn’t any way that they could help him solve this problem even if he told them. He hadn’t expected Lil’ Miss to actually send people to get them in a long-distance journey.

This was a true long distance journey. He didn’t know how many jie they would have to pass through from Cloud Sea Jie to Shattered Stone Jie!

Truthfully, he still didn’t know why he had A Gui had suddenly appeared here. Even Pu Yao and Wei didn’t know what happened after he lost consciousness, much less A Gui.

Cloud Sea Jie … … Shattered Stone Jie … …

Was there a connection between these two? Zuo Mo definitely did not believe this was a coincidence. A transportation formation that could travel such a long distance certainly was not an average transportation formation.

At the beginning, he had thought it was a chaos rift but Pu Yao and Wei rejected this speculation with confidence.

Pu Yao and Wei were not reliable but when the two of them had the same opinion, then it was a reliable conclusion.

Then what was it? Zuo Mo sank into deep thought.

Suddenly, a light flashed through Zuo Mo’s mind. All the clues were strung together like pearls in his mind.

He remembered the words on the golden leaf had said that the Sun Tribe had set up a shen temple in Cloud Sea Jie to look for a certain object. Zuo Mo at the beginning had thought that Lan had been imprisoned in the Burning Shen Realm because of the Sun Tribe’s war-like nature but looking at it now, this definitely was not a coincidence.

The thieving baldy from Xuan Kong Temple had talked about “that object”. It seemed that that guy knew something. Was the “object” that the thieving baldy spoke of and the “object” that the golden leaf mentioned the same one?

The restricted landed of the mist people!

That object was most likely in the restricted grounds of the mist people!

This was why Lan was in the Burning Shen Realm and why the thieving baldies had appeared was explainable.

But why did he and A Gui appear in Shattered Stone JIe? What was the connection between Shattered Stone Jie and the restricted grounds of the mist people? Was “that object” in Shattered Stone Jie?

Zuo Mo shook his head and threw this absurd thought to the back of his mind. In the period of time he had stayed in Uncle An Ya’s home, he generally understood the situation of Shattered Stone Jie. Shattered Stone Jie was an average little jie among the many in the mo realm. There was nothing worthy of attention here. What was most plentiful were the sand and rocks of the Gobi Desert.

According to Uncle An Ya, the Gobi Desert was so large it spanned over three quarters of Shattered Stone Jie and was at its most central part. The other mo settlements were mostly like Shattered Stone Town and scattered around the borders of the Gobi Desert.

From every perspective, Shattered Stone Jie was a desolate place, even more lifeless than Cloud Sea Jie. The number of xiuzhe in Cloud Sea Jie was far more than the number of mo living in Shattered Stone Jie.

Then why had he and A Gui been transported here? Was this a coincidence?

Zuo Mo did not understand.

He quickly threw these speculations to the back of his mind. Even if there was treasure, it had nothing to do with him. He was worried about Lil’ Miss and the others. Since Shu Long and A Wen were coming, Guard Camp now lacked a leader, and Turtle Island had one less troop that could fight.

Xuan Kong Temple would not remain passive.

He didn’t know if Gongsun Shidi would be able to withstand their advances. Fortunately, Xuan Kong Temple was very far from Cloud Sea Jie and they could not sent many battalions over. They were also unable to maintain a long campaign because their primary enemy was yaomo, not him.

If they could stop the first wave, then it would be easy!

He did not speak of his worries. He believed that Gongsun Shidi would think of his.

Alright, he should first take care of himself. This weak and inhuman state was hurtful to look at.

A Gui was probably tired as well … …

Zuo Mo was lying on A Gui’s back and her loose hair covered his face. After so many days of wind and sand, A Gui’s hair was so clean there wasn’t any dust and carried a heart-shaking black sheen. It felt slightly eerie.

It was a pity he could not see A Gui’s face … …

“Hey, A Gui, can we change the carrying position?” Zuo Mo muttered.

He clearly felt that A Gui stilled. Hm, did A Gui understand?

Zuo Mo was overjoyed and hurriedly said, “A Gui, A Gui, change position, come come come, let’s change position … …”

Before he finished speaking, he felt a great force and he spun.

He finally changed position … … it had been a few weeks since he was placed on A Gui’s back … … A Gui, you were great!

Zuo Mo almost cried.

———

“A Gui, can we change a position again?” Zuo Mo said weakly.

A Gui was motionless and didn’t react at all.

Zuo Mo was slightly nervous. His arm, which was in contact with a certain full and soft part of A Gui, tingled. Zuo Mo suddenly thought of the very powerful illusory art that despicable paper crane girl had used on him at Wu Kong Mountain … …

Was this … … also an illusory spell?
