The return journey was smooth, and before leaving the Abyssal Rift, Yu Ziqing set up a few more arrangements. If someone came and went, he would sense it.
He had just left the Abyssal Rift not long ago.
A dozen miles away, the figure of the Black Robed Man suddenly appeared.
He didn't cast his gaze on Yu Ziqing, completely ignoring Yu Ziqing's presence. All he saw was Cece, who followed him.
He didn't understand why Yu Ziqing could sense his surveillance, but it didn't matter. He wouldn't take any risks.
Recently, he had nowhere to go. He didn't dare to stay in the Southern Sea, didn't dare to enter Daqian. He didn't dare to stay at the junction of the East Sea and the Southern Sea, and even less did he dare to go to the East Sea.
He couldn't wait for Dean Wu's Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and ultimately had to figure out a way to recover on his own, traveling along the border of Dali and Daqian, passing through small countries, to get here.
He intended to use some things from the small countries to slightly recover first, as he couldn't rely on anyone and had to depend on himself.
He had previously visited that Abyssal Rift but gained nothing, it was entirely empty.
Now, seeing Qing Ziyu again, even though King Xiang and Feng Buju were not by his side, he cautiously refrained from taking action.
His catastrophe had not yet passed; his luck had slightly improved after hitting rock bottom, but just a little.
His injuries had barely started to recover, and it was best not to create any more complications.
Even if he planned to do something, he didn't intend to do it himself.
He watched Yu Ziqing and Cece leave, waiting until they completely disappeared from his senses before sending out a message and then shrinking back, quietly arriving at Kuihou Country. In the most chaotic places within Kuihou Country, he hunted some Refining God cultivators or Dao cultivators to restore his injuries.
If, before his injuries healed this time, he was discovered again, he planned to head north to stay in the Abyss, where it was full of demons and devils, which was better than being here.
For some reason, he always felt that seeing Qing Ziyu brought bad luck. Whenever he entertained any other thoughts, he felt an ominous foreboding in his heart, as if calamity was about to strike.
In the Shadow Department, Fu Xiao, who had just walked out from the archives, frowned slightly as he sensed a special transmission.
He closed his eyes and sensed it, then reached out and grasped, and a Jade Scroll appeared in his palm. After reading its contents, he casually crushed the Jade Scroll and ignored it.
What did Qing Ziyu from Jinlan Mountain going to that mountainous Abyss have to do with him?
He had already done what he was supposed to do, and investigating the Sealed Items was none of his business.
Was he crazy to try to capture Qing Ziyu now and interrogate him about the Sealed Items?
Let whoever is supposed to go handle it; he definitely wouldn't intervene.
There was no way he would let Ye Jiuyuan go, either.
None of them could be exposed.
On the other side, Yu Ziqing still didn't know that his recent trip to the mountainous Abyss was known to many people.
Actually, even if people knew, they wouldn't care much.
He hadn't particularly tried to hide his whereabouts.
It was certain that someone knew he was trapped, and someone surely knew he had come out.
The man with the metal mask had disappeared, and surely someone knew about that too.
They had already become enemies to such an extent that there was nothing more to say.
Honestly, he found it quite incredible that up to now, no one had come to ask him where he had hidden the Evil Lord who was taken out after being unsealed.
Even if those people knew he surely didn't bring it back to Jinlan Mountain, they should also know that he had some clues about it, right?
All the other informed people were experts, and the easiest target was Yu Ziqing.
Yu Ziqing had prepared for a long time just to tell those people that the Sealed Items were thrown deep into the pit by him.
