C1145 The Scheme Succeeded
While the two of them were on alert, an ordinary looking figure wearing an earthen grey robe slowly walked out from the dark and gloomy area under their gazes.
Under the light of the flames, Zuo Yun, who had revealed his true appearance, saw his comrade, and even took out his weapon to defend himself. He asked in confusion, "What the hell are you guys doing? Did you meet an enemy?"
"Zuo Yun?"
Seeing that familiar face, Xu Hao probed him a little and once again probed his body with his soul. After confirming repeatedly, he slowly let out a sigh of relief, "This guy is Zuo Yun. Hailing, you shouldn't scare yourself too much."
After making sure that the person in front of him was indeed one of his own people, only then did Hai Ling slowly put away the weapon in his hand. With a dissatisfied and cold voice, he asked, "What are you doing for no reason?"
"I …" As soon as he sat down, he was immediately pressed. Zuo Yun's heart skipped a beat, his eyes became a little uncertain as he vaguely replied, "I thought there was someone over there, but a little fox suddenly appeared, so I was scared."
Hearing this, the two of them did not speak any further. With a casual glance, they closed their eyes and began to meditate. In order to prepare for the destruction of the Cloud Golden Skeleton Tree tomorrow, they had to make sufficient preparations.
This man and woman from the Royal Family named Xu Hao and Hai Ling were extremely suspicious. Even though they were in a meditative state, they still spent a bit of time inspecting the nearby campsite, but they were on all sorts of defenses and had missed the final spot. That was the dark area where the commotion had been made, and they showed the exact same corpse as Zuo Yun who had been sitting here before, except that the former was wearing clothes while the latter had been stripped naked.
He was still being burned by the fire source energy. From this, it could be seen that the real Zuo Yun was already dead. The person sitting in their camp was someone else.
He sensed that the souls of the two people of the Royal Family beside him had fallen into a deep slumber. Zuo Yun slowly opened his eyes and smirked, "Looks like it's much simpler than I imagined. This time, we'll be able to obtain the remaining fruits."
"Hmm?"
In the next moment, just as he was about to organize the information he just gathered, an itchy feeling came from his chest, and a round, small, cute looking head with a pair of cute fox ears suddenly jumped out. Those pair of enchanting dark blue eyes looked worriedly at the man who had shrunk her down, hiding her presence along with his demonic qi and source energy fluctuations.
If someone was here, they would have definitely recognized this little fox as the degenerate Ethereal Opening, and for her to be so willing, there was no need to think about how Lingyun would act with her.
"Don't worry, you don't have to worry so much."
After confronting it for a while, and reading the meaning in the little fox's eyes, Lingyun revealed a relieved smile, and lightly patted his soft little head.
He had already gotten used to Ethereal Opening's dubious relationship. Since Ethereal Opening had already warned him, he had shrunk back into his clothes to rest, saving the time being seen through by others, so as to let Ling Yunfan's plan of impersonating Zuo Yun and infiltrating the Royal Family come crashing down the drain.
Previously, when he overheard the discussions of the three people, he knew that if he continued to follow them, he would definitely be able to find the Cloud Golden Skeleton Tree, and also try to rob them. However, this method could only be used once, but a tree simply did not have enough fruits, so hiding in the dark was not an option.
For this reason, they came up with a better method than following others, which was to kill a person and then impersonate that person and sneak into the group. That way, even if they encountered the Cloud Golden Skeleton Tree, they would be able to sneak away with the fruits.
The reason why he was able to hide his identity from the other two was because his cultivation level had far surpassed their own, and also because of the netherworld's netherworld energy. He had used his own source energy to disguise himself, otherwise, when his soul had scanned him just now, he would have made his escape, and it would have been more and more difficult to continue acting.
Just like this, the night passed silently, and the early morning soon arrived.
Xu Hao and Yu Mo, the two Royal families didn't have much to say to each other as usual. In order to complete the task given to them earlier, they rushed to the route given by the map.
Perhaps it was because they had absolute trust in their comrade, but the two of them did not realize that this Zuo Yun, who was disguised as Ling Yun, had actually already exposed a little of his actions and words.
"Alright, we have reached our destination."
After a long time, the group arrived at a swamp that was filled with the fragrance of fruits, the air was filled with a hint of gold. When the leader of the group, Hai Ling, looked around, he immediately pointed to a tree not far away, which had several dark golden fruits growing on it. He said to the two people beside him: "This time, it's your turn.
"I …"
"I'll go." Seeing that no one said anything for a long time, the slightly obese Xu Hao decided to say something, and Lingyun accepted the job first. Then, he said with a smile: "Just treat it as scaring you guys to apologize, since I have nothing to do anyway."
Hearing this, the two of them did not object and nodded, indicating for him to be more alert. They released their souls to stand guard around them.
If the power of the outside world was not enough, there was a high chance that one would be ruthlessly loved by the backlash that the tree itself. Furthermore, in an environment with this kind of spiritual medicine, there would usually be powerful demon beasts protecting it, so someone would be willing to do such a dangerous job.
For Xu Hao and Hai Ling, it couldn't be any better.
Bang!
Arriving in front of the tree, Ling Yun did not dare to use too much strength, and did his best to suppress his power down to the same level as Zuo Yun himself. After that, after a long and arduous attack, he finally managed to knock down the Cloud Golden Skeleton Tree, which had a defensive power comparable to a low level emperor level treasure. In order to prevent the two people behind him from becoming suspicious, he even uprooted the tree and completely ended the opportunity for the subsequent regeneration of the spirit medicine.2
However, just as the ripe fruits were about to be destroyed, more than thirty fruits appeared in the storage space of the Bracelet of Extreme Earth with a speed as fast as lightning.
