1514: C1514 Strange Disappearance

C1514 Strange Disappearance

Ju Zhong never thought that Zhou Yi would secretly attack him.

Before he could react, Zhou Yi's foot had already kicked his butt.

Then he fell directly from the top of the tree.

He even fell down without any regard for his image.

"Damn!" After landing, the bureau chief silently cursed.

However, he definitely couldn't raise his head to look at Zhou Yi on the tree. That way, it would attract everyone's attention.

As such, after he fell down, he quickly got up and ran off into the distance.

He ran in this direction with great care. He did not run in the opposite direction to the group of people, nor did he run in their direction. Instead, he ran in the same direction as them.

Thus, at first, there were only a few people chasing after him.

The people that stayed behind saw that he was getting closer and closer, so they also started to run forward, intending to intercept Ju Zhong.

The 30-40 people on the open ground, with the exception of the two standing behind the old man, joined the army that was trying to stop Ju Zhong.

Zhou Yi shot out two beams of energy that hit the two people behind the old man.

With a palm-leaf fan in hand, the old man only lightly fanned twice before he felt the two people behind him silently fall down.

Only then did he realize that there was more than one person.

However, he did not reveal an expression of panic. Instead, he slowly stood up from the armchair.

He cupped his fist towards the sky, "I wonder where this friend came from. Can you show yourself?"

Zhou Yi sneered and then directly threw out a palm. A multicolored energy turned into a long arrow in the air and shot straight at the old man's face.

The old man quickly raised his hand to block. A barrier of energy instantly appeared in front of him.

The long arrow effortlessly shot through the barrier and its speed did not decrease as it explosively shot towards the old man.

The old man continued to retreat. However, no matter how much he retreated, the arrow seemed to have grown eyes as it followed him closely.

Helpless, the old man could only use a ray of energy to clash head on with him.

What he did not expect was that after a low and deep burst of energy woke up, the arrows' aftereffects were still aimed at his body.

Although that strike wasn't fatal, it made the old man feel as if all of his internal organs had shifted position. The sweet and fishy smell in his throat was forcefully suppressed by him, and he immediately turned around and ran without saying a word.

He knew that he would not be able to beat the person who came today, so he could only run first.

Ju Zhong led the group of people and gradually moved away from the open space in the middle. They entered the woods not far away.

In addition, that old man had already turned around to flee. Currently, all that was left on the ground was a bunch of human shaped dumplings that had been tied up.

Zhou Yi flashed forward. Before he even got close to those people, the ropes on their bodies had already been untied.

Zhou Yi then ran in the direction Ju Zhong disappeared in.

At this moment, Ju Zhong was already surrounded by dozens of people, "You old brat, you run pretty fast!"

One of the young men who was panting pointed at Ju Zhong and cursed.

Ju Zhong was also very tired. As he put his hands on his waist, he gasped, "I'm just fast, what can you do to me?"

"Brothers, attack! Kill him!"

With a loud shout, the dozens of people attacked Ju Zhong at the same time.

Ju Zhong didn't turn around and run. These people's cultivation wasn't high, so he didn't put them in his eyes.

Therefore, in the moment the crowd attacked, he suddenly released several strands of energy.

The energy rolled along the ground and in the blink of an eye, it reached the feet of the crowd.

Everyone was caught off guard and the ten people in front of them were instantly knocked to the ground.

Now that the people behind them blocked it, their speed instantly slowed down.

Ju Zhong took the opportunity to strike a second time.

All of a sudden, the group of 34 was also beaten down by Ju Zhong.

By the time Zhou Yi arrived, Ju Zhong had basically finished his battle.

"Eh? Didn't you manage to save him? " Ju Zhong looked behind Zhou Yi with a puzzled expression.

Zhou Yi nodded, "Let him go by himself. I'm not suitable for him to come out. Maybe he has his own place to go. If he really has nowhere else to go, it's not too late for him to look for me!"

Ju Zhong nodded, "That's good too. But did you catch that old man?"

Zhou Yi said, "No, there seems to be a secret tunnel on the mountain. He jumped into it and escaped."

"Then let's hurry into the secret passage and take a look." As Ju Zhong said this, he walked towards the empty space where he was previously at.

When the two of them arrived at the place where the old man had disappeared, they did not find any trace of a secret passage.

"Are you sure he disappeared here?" Ju Zhong asked as he looked around.

Zhou Yi thought about it and said, "Yes, it should be here. It should not be more than 10 square meters."

Since Zhou Yi was so sure, then the old man must have disappeared here.

However, there weren't any traps or secret tunnels here. People couldn't just disappear from here for no reason.

Ju Zhong suddenly opened his mouth: "Don't tell me that guy knows invisibility!"

Zhou Yi didn't expect this.

However, recalling the situation at that time, that possibility could not be ruled out.

The two searched around but didn't find anything, so they decided to leave first to see if the factory where they stored the herbs was nearby.

After all, transporting such a large amount of medicine was extremely taxing, and it was impossible for it to disappear in just a day and a night.

Zhou Yi turned around and took a glance. He found that Elder Yuan and the others had already disappeared from the open space. They must have fled for their lives.

Zhou Yi closed his eyes slightly. He wanted to try to contact Elder Yuan.

However, for some reason, he failed after trying twice.

"What's going on? Didn't you already have a Soul Contract with him? "Why can't you get in touch with him?" Ju Zhong asked in confusion.

Zhou Yi shook his head gently, "I've never encountered such a situation before."2

"Then you should know what the cause is, right?" Ju Zhong asked.

Zhou Yi thought for a moment. "Unless he's trapped somewhere and has an energy barrier around him, the two of us won't be able to contact each other."

"That's strange, didn't you already untie them just now?" "How did he get caught in the blink of an eye?"

This was indeed very strange.

Zhou Yi turned around and glanced at Ju Zhong. He thought that this kind of situation might happen.

Perhaps the place where the old man had escaped to was the clearing where the people had disappeared.

But where was this place?

Zhou Yi's gaze swept across the surroundings slowly before finally landing on the place where Elder Yuan was previously trapped.

According to the time of their escape, if they really left the forest, Zhou Yi would have seen it.

So that's the problem.

Thinking about that, Zhou Yi's body flashed and in the blink of an eye, he arrived at the empty space.
