Chapter 3407: Chapter 3407: Scared Me to Death
"Go on, tell me." Qian Yizheng picked up the teapot and poured him another cup of tea.
"Today, I tracked a group of evil cultivators to a courtyard. I saw them transporting many sacks; I initially guessed that those sacks were filled with grain."
Min Yi first shared what he saw.
If those grains were indeed there, then their claim of sealing off Rock City would be a joke.
"I originally planned to check it out after they left, but little did I know..."
He initially intended to poison the sacks once the people left, figuring they wouldn’t take everything at once. If he poisoned the sacks, the next time they came, they would take poisoned grain.
"But unexpectedly, while they hadn’t finished moving things, I saw someone hiding deep in the corridor across from me. I got so scared that I quickly sneaked away."
"Who was it?"
Senior Brother Xiao quickly asked.
Could someone else be tracking those evil cultivators just like them?
"Could it be someone like us, secretly hiding in the city, either Sect Disciples or Noble Clan Young Masters?"
Thinking of this possibility excited him. Wouldn’t that mean their team could grow stronger? Currently, what they lacked most was manpower.
Min Yi rolled his eyes at Senior Brother Xiao, and the others looked at Senior Brother Xiao speechlessly.
If Min Yi had seen a stranger, would he have run so fast? He would have adapted to the situation. The fact that Min Yi ran so fast means it was someone he recognized, or rather, an evil cultivator he recognized.
"It was Xiao Yi," Min Yi said.
"Xiao Yi?"
Everyone was shocked. Xiao Yi was actually tracking those people, weren’t they their own people?
What was this about? Was there internal strife among the evil cultivators? Or was it that the grain belonged to someone secretly hiding it, not belonging to Yang Tianxiu?
It couldn’t be. If that were the case, they wouldn’t be retrieving the grain so openly.
"Xiao Yi has a conflict with the Head of the Evil Cultivators," Second Senior Brother Yan said.
"I don’t know."
Min Yi shook his head. Naturally, he couldn’t make wild guesses since they were now rather isolated from information.
"I was just afraid of being followed, so I went in circles several times before coming back. It scared me to death."
"Big Brother Min Yi, you should sit down and rest for a bit," Qian Yizheng said.
Listening to his words, someone immediately made room for Min Yi to sit down. Min Yi didn’t hesitate and took a seat since his legs really felt weak.
"Oh, sure."
Min Yi nodded. After all, he had confronted Xiao Yi before, and that guy’s cultivation level was not something he could contend with.
If he fell into their hands, he wouldn’t even be able to escape!
"Yi Zheng, Yi Rong, Brother Yan, Brother Xiao, shouldn’t we discuss what to do about that grain?" Despite his shaky legs, he didn’t want that grain to bolster Yang Tianxiu’s strength.
Even if they couldn’t claim it, they should at least destroy it.
"Oh, by the way, while tracking those people earlier, I overheard them discussing. Yang Tianxiu gave Xiao Yi an order: they must capture us alive, without causing severe injury."
"We should indeed discuss this."
Qian Yizheng looked up and turned to Second Senior Brother Yan and Senior Brother Xiao and the others.
Previously, he hadn’t thought Yang Tianxiu would make such a move. He imagined they’d just have some grain to last them ten days or so.
