C736 Strange Sensation
"What are you two trying to do?" Yanran's pretty eyebrows immediately furrowed as a cold light flashed across her eyes.
"Not at all," the two of them looked at each other and said respectfully.
"If that's the case, then don't come looking for me so easily!" Yanran spoke. At this moment, a peculiar expression appeared on her face. She already wanted to go back, afraid that Zhang Fan would find her.
Maybe after she saw it, she would leave and could not continue her current life. Maybe this was the only thing she did not want to think about, including now, because in her heart, she did not understand this problem. Every time she came into contact with it, she would feel that her mind was in a mess and she had always been at odds with this problem.
"Yes." The two of them looked at each other before deciding to leave. After all, the Holy Maiden's status was an extremely noble existence among the law enforcers.
Yanran bit her lips as she looked at the spot where the two of them had disappeared. Her expression immediately became sad. Sometimes, she really wished that she was just an ordinary girl. She didn't need to think about everything else to be with Zhang Fan every day.
After standing there for a long time, Yanran opened her mouth and exhaled. With a complicated expression on her face, she headed back.
After returning to his room, he curled up in Zhang Fan's embrace again, feeling the warmth. He bit his lips again and closed his eyes.
On the other side, two black figures appeared once again. At this moment, a voice sounded, "The higher-ups said that if there's a problem with the Holy Maiden's side, we can only do it ourselves. In short, the Soulstone can't fall into his hands."
"Hm!" Another voice sounded again, "Then when should we make our move?"
"When the Holy Maiden and that person separate?" The voice replied once more, and after speaking, the two of them disappeared without a trace.
Another week passed. Zhang Fan had sensed many people paying attention to them, but his search was fruitless. His brows were furrowed even more. What made him more anxious was when would the events in the Golden Tree Ridge come out?
It was also as the lonesome old man had said. If there was too much commotion, the number of experts that would be attracted would also increase. Therefore, he also had to carry the pressure within the formless state.
At this time, he started to doubt whether there really were things within the Golden Tree Mountain. However, he still chose to believe that there was no one capable of plotting against them.
Just as he was preparing to go the day before, when Zhang Fan had basically fallen asleep, he had felt a surge of restlessness come over him. Surprised for a moment, his eyes had instantly opened, but that feeling had disappeared once again.
Extremely astonished expressions appeared in his eyes. He knew that it was impossible for that feeling to appear out of nowhere. Something must have gone wrong to cause it to happen, and almost instantly, the first thing he thought of was the Golden Tree Ridge.
When he thought of the Golden Tree Ridge, he took a deep breath and his soul force suddenly floated at this moment, directly spreading out in all directions. Under his detailed perception, he did not discover anything, but at this time, he did not choose to recover.
However, Jiu Jiu and Yanran were resting peacefully here. This was something that he was very curious about, and as he was thinking this, he suddenly felt an extremely warm feeling coming from his chest. In his confusion, he could not help but feel shocked in his heart, because the jade pendant seemed to have made a predetermined judgement, and suddenly, that feeling appeared once again, as if it was carrying a strange fluctuation.
At this time, he also sat up. His two eyes also opened wide at the same time as he looked at Zhang Fan in confusion.
"Big Brother Zhang, is something the matter?" At this moment, Yu Jiu was the first to ask in confusion.
"Yeah." Zhang Fan nodded slightly, then said, "Maybe it's something on the Golden Tree Ridge. Let's go take a look."
The two of them nodded and sat up. After putting on his shoes, Zhang Fan picked up Yanran. After arriving at the entrance of the thatched cottage, he quickly ran in the direction of the Golden Tree Ridge.
"Still here huh?" Zhang Fan's eyes were currently filled with astonishment. It was as if he had been waiting for a long time to erupt. If nothing happened in Golden Tree Ridge while it was still in its current state, he would probably go crazy.
In the past, he hadn't been afraid of waiting, but now that he wanted to return to the Martial Spirit Continent, his original intention had changed greatly.
They arrived in the sky above the Golden Tree Ridge in almost an hour. However, at this time, under the contrast of the stars, the Golden Tree Ridge was still extremely serene, and nothing had happened. At this moment, he once again felt that scorching heat, and he could clearly feel it, but this time, it was even more intense.
Suddenly, Zhang Fan raised his head and looked over. He discovered that a dozen shadows had appeared and were wrapping around them. An old man floated over, but when he saw that it was Zhang Fan, he was slightly startled. He then said, "So it's Little Brother."
"Yes!" Zhang Fan also realized that the people around him were from the Saroman clan. He spoke directly, "Senior doesn't know if anything has happened in the Golden Tree Mountain Range in the past few days."
The old man shook his head, "Nothing happened. Did little brother get any news?" Then he paused before continuing, "Also, the human that rescued our old patriarch came here and told us that a man and a woman would come. He told us to listen to him, but little brother, I didn't expect it to be you."
Zhang Fan slightly nodded his head at this moment. He did not expect that the lonely old man would specially come over to give some instructions. After which, he directly said, "Since it's like this, you should keep an eye on it. If anything happens, come over and notify me in advance."
At this moment, his meaning was completely clear. The three of them were going to stay here temporarily.
Just as the old man was about to open his mouth to say something, a ray of light suddenly appeared from Zhang Fan's body. In addition, the light became more intense, and while they were extremely puzzled, Zhang Fan's voice also rang out at this time. Zhang Fan directly said, "There doesn't seem to be any need to prepare, it should be coming soon."1
This was because Zhang Fan could clearly feel that the feeling had broken down. The time interval had shortened, and the feeling had also persisted for an invisible length of time. He suddenly didn't know what was going on, but he was extremely clear on what was going on.
The people present all revealed puzzled expressions. At this time, all of them landed on Zhang Fan's body, including Yu Jiu and Yanran. Because they didn't feel anything, they didn't understand why Zhang Fan would say that.
Yanran was hugged by Zhang Fan. At this moment, she was extremely puzzled. The energy that was being emitted from Zhang Fan's body was something she had never seen before. It was a very pure energy, and it gave off a strange feeling.
While everyone was looking at Zhang Fan, he didn't say anything. He simply floated in the air and looked around, as if he was waiting for something.
What were they waiting for? This was something that everyone was extremely curious about. The sudden silence was natural, and in this atmosphere, no one moved, no one even spoke.
As time passed, Zhang Fan closed his eyes. The energy on his body had become even denser by a bit …
As the night deepened, the stars in the sky became even more resplendent. They poured down onto the Golden Tree Ridge, giving off a feeling as if they were wearing a silver veil. It gave off a feeling as if they were wearing mysterious colors.
At this time, his eyes looked into the distance, and almost instantly, he opened his mouth and said, "Everyone retreat!" His expression changed drastically as he spoke, because he felt an extremely terrifying area of energy that did not come from underground. The strange thing was that the energy did not come from underground, but in this sort of extreme contradiction, he did not need to think too much about it as he hugged Yanran with one hand while grabbing onto Jiu Yu's arm with the other.
Although the Saromans didn't understand what was going on, they, who were born with the innate ability to sense things, didn't think too much about it. Although they were half a beat too slow, they still sped away almost instantaneously.
