Necropolis Immortal Chapter 71 – Bold Demon, Show Yourself

Chapter 71: Bold Demon, Show Yourself

It was the first day of May of the Immortal Martial Era.

There were still 27 days to go before the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet.

It had also been three days since Ye Ping and Su Changyu left.

It was nighttime.

In Qingyun Dao Sect, Daoist Tai Hua frowned and seemed to be thinking about something.

“What exactly did I forget to do?”

“How strange is it? Why does it feel like something has gone wrong?”

“Why can’t I remember it?”

Daoist Tai Hua muttered.

Ever since Ye Ping and Su Changyu left, he felt like there was something he hadn’t done, but he couldn’t remember exactly what it was.

After thinking for half a day, he shook his head because he was still clueless.

After all, the thing that one had a hard time recalling was usually not an important matter.

At this moment, the sky was dark like ink.

In the midst of a mountain range, two figures walked in the mountains, using the moonlight as a source of light.

Under the moonlight, Su Changyu looked at the map carefully and looked a bit odd.

According to the map, he should have already reached Changlin City, but why was he still in the wilderness?

They had been on the journey for three days and Su Changyu was starting to get exhausted. He just wanted to reach the ancient city sooner to get a good rest.

“Junior Brother, do you find it chilly here?”

Su Changyu frowned in the woods.

He found it chilly and felt uncomfortable, though he didn’t know if he was just imagining things, or there were some eerie supernatural existences.

Hearing what Su Changyu said, Ye Ping tried to sense for a while, but he didn’t find it chilly nor could he detect any changes.

“Eldest Senior Brother, it’s alright. I don’t feel chilly.”

Ye Ping answered.

Su Changyu’s frown became deeper.

The clothes he was clad in were produced by Heavenly Apparel Pavilion, which was dust-proof and windproof. Even if it was snowing in this place, he still wouldn’t be able to feel chilly.

“Am I really just being paranoid and suspecting things?”

Su Changyu frowned.

“Junior Brother, be careful.”

He said slowly.

Although it was likely that he was being paranoid, Su Changyu still cautioned Ye Ping to be careful.

There was something about Su Changyu that deserved praise from Daoist Tai Hua.

It was the best virtue that he had gotten from Daoist Tai Hua.

Conscientiousness!

Whenever they were away from the sect, Su Changyu would be extremely cautious in many aspects, and he would be able to acutely detect all changes in his surroundings. That was also the reason that he managed to escape from danger on several occasions.

“Yes.”

Ye Ping nodded, trusting Su Changyu unconditionally although he did not detect any changes.

‘After we pass this mountain, I’ll find a random place to rest.’

Su Changyu thought in his heart.

An hour later, the sky became darker and the forest was silent.

Su Changyu took the lead while Ye Ping followed behind.

Both of them looked around vigilantly with their guards up.

A long period of time passed.

Finally, Ye Ping found something amiss.

“Eldest Senior Brother.”

Ye Ping’s voice sounded again.

Su Changyu, who was walking ahead, stopped walking and turned around to look at Ye Ping, with curiosity in his eyes.

“I think we’ve been here before.”

Ye Ping frowned slightly as he said that.

‘We’ve been here before?’

Su Changyu was a little surprised, and he carefully observed his surroundings.

He realized that it actually seemed a little familiar.

“Yes.”

However, Su Changyu didn’t seem too shocked and instead nodded calmly to act as if he had long discovered it.

“Junior Brother, do you know what results in this feeling?”

Su Changyu asked calmly.

It was not a question, but rather, he was trying to make it seem like he was testing Ye Ping.

“Array formations.”

Ye Ping pondered for a while and gave the answer that he thought about.

“Oh? Do you know about array formations too?”

Su Changyu was taken aback.

“Senior Brother Wang has taught me some array formations, and I’ve also read some books about array formations in the Sutra Pavilion of the sect.”

Ye Ping answered.

‘Oh, you learned from him.’

Hearing that he learned about array formations from Wang Zhuoyu, Su Changyu instantly lost interest.

He felt that Ye Ping would do better if he learned on his own, as compared to being taught by Wang Zhuoyu.

“In that case, let me ask you something. Do you know how to break array formations?”

Su Changyu asked calmly.

“Senior Brother, since it’s an array formation, there’s bound to be a core. Once the core is destroyed, the array formation will be destroyed. However, this is a dangerous method.”

Right after detecting the array formation, Ye Ping had already thought of the method to break it.

“Tell me about it.”

Su Changyu remained composed, still acting as if he was testing Ye Ping.

“The core of the array is where the array artifact is. Since someone has set up an array here, they naturally have the array artifact. If we go over recklessly, we might be in danger.”

‘But with Eldest Senior Brother around, I definitely won’t be scared.’

Ye Ping did not finish his sentence and just gave a serious analysis.

“Danger?”

Su Changyu couldn’t understand what he was talking about, but he only heard the word ‘danger’.

‘That doesn’t make sense.’

‘Why would someone deliberately set up an array formation here?’

‘What is the purpose of laying an array formation here?’

‘Are there still people who like targeting good-for-nothings these days?’

‘Do they want to violate me because I’m so handsome?’

‘No, maybe they know that I have a huge sum of money with me and want to rob me.’

‘I’ll let them violate me instead then.’

Su Changyu quickly thought.

“If you don’t want to get into trouble, there is another method to break the array formation.”

Ye Ping answered seriously.

“What method is it?”

Su Changyu asked with a straight face.

“Eldest Senior Brother, we should have walked into a trapping array formation. That’ll prove that they dared not act brazenly.”

“In that case, we will sit here and wait patiently. Such array formations are not that powerful. The person who laid it should not have a high cultivation level. I reckon they’re waiting for our energy to be depleted before attacking us.”

“Junior Brother, so you think that the array formation won’t break if we wait here quietly for a while.”

That was Ye Ping’s method.

It was also the safest one.

He could obviously sense that the trapping array formation was not too strong either, which meant that the cultivation level of that person wasn’t strong. Hence, he was wary.

If he didn’t take the initiative to seek trouble, he could just wait here quietly for the other party to lose patience and remove the array artifact. The array formation will then break on its own.

‘Just wait?’

‘You want me to just wait here?’

‘Okay then, anyway, I’m a little tired after walking for three days.’

Su Changyu didn’t want to encounter any trouble, and after hearing Ye Ping’s reasoning, he reckoned that the cultivation level of the person who set up the array wasn’t high. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been in hiding.

In that case, he would just wait there.

“Let’s see what they want to do then.”

Su Changyu then sat on the ground and seemed profound and mysterious.

Ye Ping nodded.

He didn’t want to be reckless because Daoist Tai Hua had warned him against causing trouble. The purpose of his trip was to participate in the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet.

He wasn’t there to fight and compete.

Thinking of this, Ye Ping sat down cross-legged too. Indeed, after traveling for three days, he had to rest.

However, less than two hours later,

A voice sounded like thunder. “Brazen demon, hurry and reveal yourself.”
