199: Kill Jin Fengxian
They had reached an agreement.
The Dragon-Tiger Family Head asked Yang Yi to use the sphere to sense where the other three spheres were.
Yang Yi pondered for a moment.
He did not answer immediately, instead letting Star Moon Elder use the sphere to sense them.
He was afraid that the sphere might contain something harmful.
Star Moon Elder was unaware of Yang Yi's thoughts; if he had known, he surely would have cursed him out.
After a brief explanation from the Dragon-Tiger Family Head, Star Moon Elder understood how to use the orbs to sense.
Actually, the orbs were quite simple; one just needed to channel Essence Power into them.
A wisp of Essence Power was channeled into the orb, and it emitted a soft glow.
Immediately, a faint image of the Void Realm appeared in Star Moon Elder's mind.
In the image, there was only a vast expanse of white mist, and nothing could be seen clearly.
Vaguely, he could see something shimmering in the distance.
The shimmering objects were the other six orbs.
Three of them were gathered together, emitting the most powerful light.
The remaining three orbs were flickering with faint light in three other directions.
Star Moon Elder chose the closest location.
The Essence Power dissipated, and he returned to normal.
The image in his mind vanished.
He pointed to the northeast and said, "There is an orb there."
"It is the closest to us."
Afterward, the group headed toward the location of the orb.
However, they had been walking for a whole day and still hadn't managed to get out of this desert.
This worried Star Moon Elder and the Dragon-Tiger Family Head greatly, but Yang Yi was leisurely and completely unconcerned.
He was even humming a tune, which made Star Moon Elder, who was beside him, grind his teeth in anger, wishing he could knock Yang Yi on the head a few times.
He really couldn't understand why this guy was so calm.
If someone else obtained the orb, it would be a huge loss.
The day passed in a rush, and the exhausted group lay down directly on the warm yellow sand.
The heat radiating from the yellow sand gave everyone a hint of comfort.
Night fell, and the wind still carried a trace of warmth.
But blowing on people, it still made them feel a little comfortable.
Everyone didn't set up tents.
Setting up tents would affect their senses, so lying here directly was the wisest choice.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by.
It was a bit cold and carried a strange scent.
Yang Yi sniffed hard.
He felt this scent was very... comfortable.
It seemed to be a fragrance.
Yang Yi slowly looked around.
Because everyone was lying down, he only saw the flapping of clothes.
"Did you guys smell something?" Yang Yi asked.
Beside him, Yue Lingxin quickly replied, "I smelled it."
"It's a strange fragrance."
As she spoke, she unknowingly had a sword in her hand, with half of it buried in the yellow sand.
The others had obviously noticed it too and became alert, most of them gripping their weapons.
Only Yang Yi was still looking up at the sky.
There were not many stars in the sky, but they were extremely dazzling.
Suddenly, that fragrance drifted over again.
Star Moon Elder stood up abruptly, peering into the distance in the dark night.
In the yellow sand, a figure vaguely floated toward him.
In the blink of an eye, a person had appeared ten meters away from Star Moon Elder.
She was wearing a purple robe, with a jade hairpin in her hair.
Her face was exquisite, and she looked to be over thirty years old.
Her clothes were embroidered with a golden flower.
This flower had seven petals, and each petal had a different color.
Seeing the person, Star Moon Elder let out a long sigh of relief.
He had originally thought it was an enemy, but it turned out to be Jin Fengxian of the Jinling Family.
"Why is it you?"
This sentence made Yang Yi and the others relax their vigilance.
Yang Yi flipped up and stood up.
When he saw Jin Fengxian, his expression flickered slightly.
He hadn't expected her to come too.
The others also stood up one after another and greeted Jin Fengxian.
Jin Fengxian's lips were a bit dry.
She walked up to Yang Yi without saying a word, grabbed the water bottle from his waist, and took a few big gulps.
After finishing, she said to Yang Yi and the others, "My companions are not far away."
"Can you give them some water to drink?"
Because the Luoyue Sect, as well as Yang Yi, had a very deep relationship with the Jinling Family, they naturally agreed.
Under Jin Fengxian's guidance, the group walked forward.
On the way, Jin Fengxian said very little.
She was originally a cold and arrogant person, so everyone didn't find her lack of words strange.
Yang Yi followed behind Jin Fengxian, observing her the whole time.
He felt that today's Jin Fengxian was somewhat different from the one he had seen in the Jinling Family.
Suddenly, he stopped his footsteps, a flash of surprise in his eyes.
Immediately after, he gathered an energy sword in his hand.
Yue Lingxin, who was beside him, saw him suddenly stop and condense a weapon, and was slightly stunned.
Just as her lips parted and she had just said the word "You," Yang Yi's energy sword had already pierced through the Jin Fengxian in front of him.
Jin Fengxian's face twisted, and she turned her head to look at Yang Yi in confusion.
"You, what are you doing?"
Yang Yi pulled out the energy sword and took a few steps back.
At the same time, Star Moon Elder and the others retreated behind Yang Yi, alert and ready for battle.
They had an indescribable trust in Yang Yi.
The moment Yang Yi killed Jin Fengxian, their first thought was not why Yang Yi did this, but to treat Jin Fengxian as an enemy.
"You are not Jin Fengxian."
Yang Yi flicked his hand, and the energy sword in his hand disappeared.
Before Jin Fengxian could speak, she suddenly shook, turned into a pile of yellow sand, and dissipated into nothingness.
Seeing this scene, everyone widened their eyes.
Some people walked to the position where the vanished Jin Fengxian had just stood, squatted down to look, and said in surprise, "Look, everyone."
"This guy doesn't seem to be human."
The crowd gathered at the spot where Jin Fengxian had just stood.
Because she had turned into yellow sand, a small amount of yellow sand remained at her feet.
The yellow sand formed from her body was indeed different from the yellow sand on the ground.
Star Moon Elder grabbed some yellow sand to look at it and frowned slightly.
The yellow sand actually had a fragrant smell, the same smell as before.
He threw the yellow sand away and asked Yang Yi with an admiring face how he discovered that Jin Fengxian was fake.
The corners of Yang Yi's mouth curled up slightly, and he said somewhat proudly, "Because Jin Fengxian's walking posture is not the same as hers."
Jin Fengxian actually has a slight hunchback when she walks.
Both Yue Lingxin and Star Moon Elder had seen Jin Fengxian before.
The two recalled what Yang Yi had just said and stared at him with a strange look.
They realized that Yang Yi was really a bit too focused on Jin Fengxian.
How come they didn't notice it?
"What is this thing?" Yang Yi immediately changed the subject.
