Chapter 877 (1/2)
Chapter 877: Chapter 392 Gu Xian of Seven Seas Hall_2 Chapter 877: Chapter 392 Gu Xian of Seven Seas Hall_2 As an ancient Immortal City, mere decades of change are inconspicuous within its bounds.
The streets and other places within the city were as usual as ever.
The three of them departed, making their way out of the city.
After leaving Bihai City, Lin Jing led the two, flying straight out of the maritime area of Bihai City.
It was only after they had flown some distance from the city that Lin Jing finally stopped.
Then, Lin Jing spoke to Lin Jue,
“You take Luo Luo back first, I still have some matters to attend to and will return later.”
Lin Jue looked at Lin Jing with some confusion upon hearing this.
After all, they had been away for decades and had just returned from the Eastern Spirit Realm.
What matter could there be that needed his attention?
Despite her curiosity, Lin Jue did not inquire further.
She nodded to Lin Jing after a glance and left with Luo Luo.

After the two of them had left, Lin Jing remained standing on the surface of the sea, hovering in the void, watching the direction in which they disappeared.

A Bandit Cultivator’s Divine Sense could be vast, covering the entire Bihai City island, including the nearby sea area, once deployed.
Any movement in this region could not escape his Divine Sense.
That is why Lin Jing had Lin Jue and Luo Luo leave first while he stayed behind.
After standing still, Lin Jing continuously monitored that Divine Sense.
He noticed that although he had left Bihai City, the owner of that Divine Sense was still watching him and had not left.
Only when he felt enough time had passed and they had gone far did Lin Jing suddenly speak out,
“If you are so curious about me, dear fellow, why not come out and meet me?”
As he spoke these words, Lin Jing’s gaze remained fixed on the distance, as if unconcerned about all this.
Though it seemed like Lin Jing had made no preparations on the surface, he was ready in the shadows.
The Shocking Furnace was activated, and at any sign of malice from the other party, Lin Jing could instantly wield the Shocking Furnace to face the enemy.

However…
No sooner had Lin Jing finished speaking than a figure flew swiftly towards him from the direction of Bihai City.
The figure approached Lin Jing with incredible speed, arriving in front of him in the blink of an eye.
Lin Jing turned his head to look at the newcomer.
The person was a tall, thin elder dressed in grey, who did not conceal his aura.
His presence was astonishing, indicating that the grey-clad elder’s Cultivation was at least at the advanced stages of Transcendence Tribulation.
As Lin Jing had predicted, the grey-clad elder’s Cultivation was much higher than his.
Although the elder had high Cultivation, he did not come bearing a threatening demeanor; instead, he approached with a smile and cupped his hands in greeting to Lin Jing,
“It turns out that my friend had already noticed me; I’ve been somewhat rude, it seems.”
Seeing that this elder seemed to have no hostility towards him, Lin Jing’s expression eased somewhat before he turned to the grey-clad elder and asked,
“Since Bihai City, you have been paying attention to me.
Would there be something amiss with me?”
The grey-clad elder hastened to respond,
“I am Gu Xian, an Elder of the Seven Seas Hall.
“I have come to Bihai City in pursuit of a traitor from our Seven Seas Hall, so everyone passing through Bihai City is subject to investigation, to see if they are disguising themselves as the traitor.”
“A traitor?” Lin Jing’s brow furrowed before he said,
“I have indeed heard that the Inner Sea has not been very peaceful recently…”
“Yes, that’s right,” Gu Xian, the grey-clad elder, nodded in response.
After speaking, he looked up at Lin Jing once more and continued,
“From what you have said, it seems you do not come from the Inner Sea.”
“I only wonder where my friend hails from?”
Upon hearing the question, Lin Jing responded directly, “The Elixir Alliance!”
When Gu Xian heard the words ‘Elixir Alliance,’ he was momentarily taken aback before saying,
