There wouldnât be any suspicion.
Qi Chuan knew that no matter how hard he tried, he wouldnât discover anything.
Because the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon had already been slain by him.
As for the area where he killed the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon, it is now under the responsibility of the True Monarch of Yin and Yang.
Qi Chuan was confident that he handled everything perfectly, without any chance of the True Monarch of Yin and Yang finding out.
However!
But just as Qi Chuan thought so in his heart, suddenly, from the distant left forest, an extremely strange cry of a Demon Beast echoed.
"This is..."
Upon hearing this sound, Qi Chuan was stunned, looking over in that direction.
He couldnât be more familiar with this sound.
"This is clearly the cry of the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon!"
"But the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon had already been slain by me, why..."
"Could it be a second Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon?"
Qi Chuanâs expression changed several times.
That area is currently under the responsibility of Ji Feng.
And during the first search, it was under the responsibility of the True Monarch of Yin and Yang.
"At the first moment Ji Feng discovered the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon, he should have already sent a message to notify Jin Wuchen. As per the agreement, the rest of us should also head there, just to watch and prevent the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon from escaping, not easily intervening..."
Qi Chuan pondered for a moment.
Then, his figure moved, transforming into an Escape Light, heading towards the source of the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragonâs cry.
In no time, Qi Chuan finally arrived.
From a distance, Qi Chuan saw a chaotic clearing.
This place should have been a forest, but now, the entire woodland had been overturned, full of chaos, large trees smashed down, stones rolling, countless debris, and dust falling from the sky.
Under the clearing, the ground was trembling.
Inside, Jin Wuchen was fiercely entangled with a nine-zhang long Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon.
Ji Feng was also there, occasionally attacking the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon and then immediately retreating, not daring to let the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon touch even a little.
In the void above the clearing, two figures hovered, curiously watching the battle below with Jin Wuchen and others.
Whoosh!
As Qi Chuanâs Escape Light approached, the True Monarch Qingyun and the True Monarch of Yin and Yang both looked towards him.
Qi Chuan ignored the True Monarch of Yin and Yang, merely exchanging glances with the True Monarch Qingyun.
He noticed a trace of doubt in Qingyunâs eyes, but neither spoke.
Whereas the True Monarch of Yin and Yang, on the other hand, clicked his tongue in wonder: "To think that, even without Cangjian True Monarch, the second search still uncovered this Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon. This time, it didnât lead to any serious consequences, Jin Wuchen shouldnât hold Cangjian True Monarch much accountable, right?"
Hearing this, Qi Chuan and the True Monarch Qingyun exchanged a glance, tacitly choosing not to respond.
The battle below lasted for half a day.
Half a day later, the battle finally ended, and the commotion subsided.
Jin Wuchen and Ji Feng rose from below.
At the same time, a Dharma Light lifted the scarred nine-zhang long Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon corpse to the ground.
"Congratulations to Daoist Jin Wuchen on your achievement!"
The trio of Qi Chuan all timely cupped their fists and congratulated.
The True Monarch of Yin and Yang grinned.
This time, although there were some twists and turns, the task was still smoothly completed, and without doing much work, they could receive the reward of a Tier Four Middle Grade Demon Beast Core, something quite rare.
"Junior Brother Ji, cut open the corpse of the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon and search for its Demon Pill..."
Jin Wuchen waved his hand, somewhat fatigued.
The strength of this Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon barely reached the level of a human Quasi-Great True Monarch.
Compared to himself, it was naturally a bit weaker.
However, even with Ji Fengâs assistance, killing it within half a day took quite an effort.
"Yes, Senior Brother Jin."
Ji Feng nodded at the words.
He knew what Senior Brother Jin Wuchen meant.
On the surface, he was asked to find the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragonâs Demon Pill, but in fact, it was to confirm something inside the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon.
After ensuring everything was clear, naturally, Qi Chuan and others could be released first.
Immediately, he moved to the side of the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragonâs corpse.
Then, he took out a sharp Spirit Treasure and began cutting the corpse of the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon.
After cutting it open, he searched carefully, up and down, left and right.
Eventually, he obtained a fist-sized orb with a red and yellow hue in his palm.
It was undoubtedly the Demon Beast Core of this Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon.
However, although he had found the Demon Pill, Ji Fengâs face was extremely ugly.
"Whatâs the matter?"
"Is it missing?"
Seeing Ji Feng silent, Jin Wuchen sensed something amiss and inquired.
Ji Feng slowly turned around, holding the red and yellow Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon Demon Pill, and said with great difficulty: "Senior Brother Jin, I didnât find it..."
Upon hearing this, Jin Wuchenâs expression suddenly darkened.
"Impossible, how could it not be there?"
Hearing Jin Wuchenâs icy voice, the True Monarch of Yin and Yang couldnât help but be puzzled, pointing at the red and yellow fist-sized Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon Demon Pill in Ji Fengâs hand, and asked in bewilderment: "Isnât this the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon Demon Pill in your hand, Junior Brother Ji? How can you say it wasnât found?"
"Move aside, let me see!"
The two ignored the True Monarch of Yin and Yang, as Jin Wuchen walked forward, pushing Ji Feng aside to personally inspect the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragonâs corpse.
After a moment, Jin Wuchenâs face turned livid.
He stood there for a while, then turned to Ji Feng, extending his hand expressionlessly: "Junior Brother Ji, let me check your Qiankun Bag..."
"Senior Brother Jin, you suspect me?"
Hearing this, Ji Fengâs eyes widened in disbelief.
Jin Wuchen only looked at him coldly.
This Flipping Abyss Earth Dragon was first discovered by Ji Feng, and it was Ji Feng who inspected the corpse first. To be safe, Jin Wuchen couldnât help but be cautious.
Looking at Jin Wuchenâs gaze, Ji Feng felt a bit heartbroken.
He said nothing, only taking out his several Qiankun Bags, releasing the Divine Soul restriction, allowing Jin Wuchen to check at will.
Naturally, Jin Wuchen unabashedly took all the Qiankun Bags, inspecting them one by one.
As soon as the Divine Sense entered the first Qiankun Bag, sweeping over the many items inside, Jin Wuchen immediately made a discovery. He seemed to spot some unexpected items, inconspicuously piled in a corner, yet were noticed at first glance.
"Who would have thought Junior Brother Ji, with his upright appearance, would be like this in private..."
Jin Wuchen lifted his eyes, looking coldly at Ji Feng.
A heartbroken Ji Feng initially didnât understand the meaning of Senior Brother Jinâs gaze, but when he saw the Qiankun Bag in Jin Wuchenâs hand, he suddenly understood, and his heart skipped a beat.
In an instant, embarrassment and shame flooded over him.
"Senior Brother Jin, let me explain..."
But by then, Jin Wuchen wasnât looking at him, continuing to check the next Qiankun Bag.
Seeing this, Ji Fengâs heart was again covered with coldness: "Alas, forget it..."
He sighed, looking up at the distant twilight sky, and said no more.
Let things be as they may...
Watching this scene, Qi Chuan, the True Monarch Qingyun, and the True Monarch of Yin and Yang couldnât help but exchange glances.
Time passed.
Soon, Jin Wuchen thoroughly checked Ji Fengâs several Qiankun Bags.
He discovered one good thing and two bad things.
The first good thing was that Junior Brother Ji was good and hadnât embezzled anything privately; he was wrongly accused.
The second bad thing was that Junior Brother Ji wasnât good; he had secretly done something to himself... Forget it, better not mention this!
The third bad thing, the final one.
If something had been found in Junior Brother Jiâs Qiankun Bag, it might have been a good thing.
But now nothing was found.
Nothing was in the Flipping Abyss Earth Dragonâs corpse either.
Doesnât this mean that the item has vanished into thin air?!
