Chapter 263: Chapter 247: Elder Wang’s Invitation

Li Tangyu nodded and said:

“Yes, it’s that demon cultivator from the Demonic Path that led to the destruction of the Li Family.”

Lin Jing thought back to the incident a few months ago when the three major sects had sent people to capture the demon cultivator from the Demonic Path in this Demon Race Secret Realm, and the affair had become widely known.

This demon cultivator, it seems, had somehow made it outside and started causing trouble.

Lin Jing then asked:

“Wasn’t it said that the demon cultivator was always within this Secret Realm? When did he leave the realm?”

Li Tangyu shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, saying:

“This, we are not clear about…”

“But that demon cultivator is indeed outside.”

“Elder Bai and Elder Yu didn’t come to find you because they were arranged by Yiyun Pavilion to go to the Night Mist Mountain Range to search for that demon cultivator.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing was startled:

“Ah…”

“They went to search for that demon cultivator?”

He then frowned, worriedly saying:

“Could they be in danger?”

As soon as Lin Jing finished speaking, Huang Qingling spoke up to reassure him:

“Don’t worry, this time to find the demon cultivator, the three major sects dispatched more than a dozen Golden Cores, and two Nascent Souls are overseeing the operation.”

“Nothing unexpected should happen.”

“I see, that’s good,” Lin Jing said, relieved.

Elder Bai and Elder Yu had always been good to him.

Naturally, Lin Jing did not wish for any mishaps to befall them.

……

At this point.

Lin Jing suddenly asked Li Tangyu again:

“You mentioned earlier there was another incident; what was it?”

Li Tangyu then said:

“Also, there’s the matter about the soul-cleansing place.”

Speaking of the soul-cleansing place, Lin Jing recalled that day, and then he asked the others:

“Speaking of the soul-cleansing place…”

“At that time, was the region you were in infested with Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants?”

The others nodded.

“Yes, at that time the entire soul-cleansing place was swarming with Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants.”

“How did you manage to escape?” asked Lin Jing, very curious, looking at them.

Li Qingqing then spoke:

“We were quite lucky at the time.”

“We just got out and encountered a Golden Core Elder, and along the way, we didn’t run into any particularly dangerous Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants.”

“So, we made it out unscathed.”

“But for some of the others, it was quite tragic.”

“On our way out, we saw many people who had died at the jaws of the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants.”

As Li Qingqing finished speaking, Huang Qingling looked at Lin Jing, unable to hide some of her bitterness:

“We even went looking for you at the time. When we arrived at your cave dwelling, it was already empty.”

“We thought you had already left, and we asked quite a few people, none of whom had seen you.”

“It was only after we got out that we lost track of you, and we were worried for a while…”

“If it hadn’t been for Senior Han’s arrival, we might have never known that you had gone into the core area…”

Lin Jing felt quite embarrassed; at the time, he hadn’t thought much about it and had planned to inform them after getting out.

But unexpectedly, in just two days, an accident had occurred.

Lin Jing quickly apologized to everyone:

“I’m sorry, it was urgent at the time, and I forgot to notify you.”

“I’m sorry for making you worry.”

The others quickly assured him it was all right, as long as Lin Jing was safe.

Huang Qingling then said:

“Forget it, I’m a big person who doesn’t hold onto small grudges, I’ll forgive you this time.”

Following that.

The others then told Lin Jing about the Redflame Devouring Spirit Ants.
