Chapter 1590 - Spy?
”Gu …” Qiu Jian is back? ”
Inside a stone house in Heavenly River City, Li Xinghan sprung up into the air. When he suddenly heard this news, he couldn't help but exclaim out loud. He even almost shouted out the two words ”Gu Ying”, and a trace of unconcealable astonishment appeared on his usually cold face.
Roughly half a month ago, a large number of Heavenly River City's cultivators went on a search, but were unable to find any traces of ”Gu Ying” or the Fourteenth Stage Death Spirit.
He and Du Yue determined that ”Gu Ying” and the 14th Ranked undead would perish together, and sent the message to Innate City.
Even when Du Yue came to the Heavenly River City as a guard, he did it because of. However, an accident happened to him in the Heavenly River City, and the two of them thought that after Lei Dao received the news, he would punish them severely.
Lei Dao did not punish the two of them, but sent a message and reprimanded them.
The two of them heaved a sigh of relief, but there were some doubts in their minds. Not long after, a large-scale battle broke out between the human cultivators and the undead in the center area. Only then did the two of them faintly understand that the Thunder Blade was probably focused on that huge battle and did not have the heart to deal with the matter of ”Gu Ying”.
This made the two of them somewhat nervous.
However, regardless of what they were thinking, one thing was certain, that ”Gu Ying” was already dead, without even his corpse and bones remaining.
But after so many days, the 'Gu Ying' that he thought had died long ago had actually returned to Heavenly River City.
This was truly unbelievable.
However, in the end, Li Xinghan was someone who had seen countless storms and waves. After a moment of shock, he had calmed down and a wave of doubt rose in his heart. On the other side of the Nether Death Realm, there had been many examples of people who had possessed souls and returned alive.
However, almost half of the cultivators that returned were possessed by the undead.
”Could this' Gu Ying 'be the same?”
The instant this thought flashed through Li Xinghan's mind, a dark haze appeared between his brows, and he immediately shouted in a low voice, ”Call Qiu Jian in, then inform the other commanders in Milky Way City so that they are ready. If my situation is like this, there is no need to worry.”
”Yes sir!”
The slender and elegant young man opposite him clearly understood the meaning behind Li Xinghan's words. With a flash of his eyes, he bowed and took his leave.
Not too long after, a figure appeared at the entrance to the stone house.
This person was naturally Tang Huan.
After leaving Black Sword Mountain and getting rid of the group of Undead realm experts, Tang Huan used the ”Void Escape” technique the whole way as he left the western part of the battlefield.
However, Tang Huan did not immediately return to Heavenly River City. Instead, he hid himself in the center of the ”Domain Field”. At that time, Tang Huan's body was constantly releasing an incomparably rich immortal spirit aura, and he looked like an incomparably precious human-shaped immortal artifact.
To return to Heavenly River City in such a state must have caused everyone to raise their eyebrows. They might even suspect that he was carrying an immortal treasure with him.
Once the news spread, it would surely attract the coveting of countless cultivators.
After all, his identity in the ”Domain” was confidential. Other than Lei Dao and a few other cultivators, no one knew that he was from the Spring Dragon Immortal Sect. They only thought that he was a disciple of the Celestial Sect. An ordinary first level Heaven stage cultivator actually possessed a supreme immortal treasure? If he didn't snatch it, who else would he snatch?
