chapter 98: tracking perhaps sensing meng zhang's thoughts, jue ying took the initiative and said, "i can track that merchant convoy. you just need to follow the marks i leave along the way and keep a distance behind." meng zhang glanced at jue ying with some wariness, thinking that she might propose new conditions. understanding meng zhang's expression, jue ying explained, "this time, i'll do it for free. consider it compensation for the additional conditions i brought up earlier." "i just hope that when you need my help in the future, you'll be wholeheartedly committed." after hearing jue ying's words, meng zhang's impression of her improved significantly. after careful consideration, he decided to follow jue ying's plan. after discussing how to stay in contact, jue ying left voluntarily. according to jue ying's information, the merchant convoy would depart before dawn, so she needed to prepare as well. the next day, early in the morning, meng zhang and li xuan left singing sand city together. following jue ying's agreement, she discreetly left various marks along the way. meng zhang found these marks and followed at a distance behind li xuan. riding wind chasing horses, meng zhang and li xuan didn't travel too fast, deliberately controlling their speed to avoid getting too close to the convoy. the journey took two full days, during which they headed north without encountering any unexpected events. on the morning of the third day, a transmission symbol flew in from the horizon and landed in meng zhang's hand. the information on the transmission symbol instructed meng zhang and his group to meet up ahead. meng zhang and li xuan spurred their wind chasing horses and hurried towards the designated meeting point. it didn't take long before they saw jue ying standing quietly beneath a sand dune. meng zhang and li xuan stopped next to jue ying. before meng zhang could speak, jue ying quickly recounted everything she had observed.̃øv€lß1n. jue ying nodded and walked ahead, leading meng zhang and li xuan to the foot of a small hill. there were countless small hills in the surrounding area, and they would never have thought there could be anything significant hidden within this particular one if jue ying hadn't guided them. jue ying pointed ahead and said, "there's a secret entrance covered by yellow sand." "the entrance is extremely well-hidden and has no magical prohibitions; it's purely a construction by mortals." meng zhang nodded. without magical prohibitions, there would be no magical fluctuations or spiritual leakage, making it an excellent way to keep it secret. meng zhang used his deception breaking eye and looked in the direction jue ying indicated. beneath the yellow sand, there was indeed a stone door. behind the door was a deep passage that seemed to extend indefinitely. after confirming there were no traps, meng zhang walked up to the door and released his flying sword, slicing open the stone door and revealing the dark passage inside. meng zhang took the lead and entered the passage. li xuan followed closely behind him. jue ying had already completed her task and should have left, but for some reason, she followed behind them into the passage. the passage was pitch black with no light. however, cultivators had some night vision ability, so the darkness didn't hinder the three of them. after advancing a certain distance, meng zhang used his deception breaking eye to check for ambushes or traps, ensuring they wouldn't encounter any unexpected dangers. they walked for quite some time, winding and turning, for what felt like half a day without encountering any accidents. however, they didn't know how deep the passage went or when they would reach the end. suddenly, a painful groan came from up ahead. meng zhang carefully looked and saw a person lying in the passage, immobile and weak, except for the occasional groan. after confirming it wasn't a trap, the three of them approached the person. li xuan felt that he recognized this person, but it was too dark to see clearly. he used his light technique, causing a glowing light to appear in his hand. he held it above the person's head and almost couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
