?Chapter 774: Chapter 342: Incident at Li Yan Island_2 Chapter 774: Chapter 342: Incident at Li Yan Island_2 And the person, Lin Jing also knew.
It was none other than Night Approaching True Monarch.
Seeing Night Approaching True Monarch, Lin Jing was also somewhat surprised:
“Night Approaching…
is it you…”
After speaking, Lin Jing directly unfolded his Divine Sense and probed the surroundings.
The improvement in his cultivation had greatly expanded the range of his Divine Sense.
In just a short moment, Lin Jing had scanned the island, and after finishing, he clearly understood his location, which was Yelin Island.
?????.??
Yelin Island was not very far from Li Flame Island; with Lin Jing’s current speed, it would take less than half an hour to reach Li Flame Island.
Knowing that he was not far from Li Flame Island, Lin Jing’s mood greatly improved.
He wondered how Lin Jue, Li Qingqing, and Ye Yun were doing.
And what had become of Li Flame Island now?
The time he had been away was not short at all.
It had been more than fifty years.
By now, it was likely that both Lin Jue and Li Qingqing had transcended the Heavenly Tribulation and advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage.
Thinking of this, Lin Jing couldn’t wait to return immediately.
However, just then, the arrival of a voice interrupted Lin Jing’s train of thought.
“Lin Daoyou…”
“How did you suddenly appear here?”
Lin Jing looked towards Night Approaching True Monarch in front; it was he who had just asked the question.
Even now, Night Approaching True Monarch was still at the Nascent Soul Stage, and Lin Jing could see through his level of cultivation at a glance.
At this time, Night Approaching True Monarch had only advanced a minor realm since the last time Lin Jing had seen him.
Clearly.
Night Approaching True Monarch was stuck here.
Without assistance from others or a great opportunity, it was likely that he would find it difficult to break through to the Divinity Transformation Stage in this lifetime.
Lin Jing had only met him a few times and wasn’t acquainted with him; they had almost had a conflict over an issue in the Fang Market.
Naturally, he wouldn’t think of helping him without reason.
To Lin Jing, Night Approaching True Monarch was merely a passerby, not someone who warranted too much attention.
Lin Jing looked towards Night Approaching True Monarch and stated directly:
“I did not intend to disturb, please do not take offense.”
Night Approaching True Monarch’s face broke into a smile as he hurriedly said:
“Lin Daoyou jests, I was merely curious, how could I possibly blame you?”
Lin Jing gave a slight nod:
“If that is so, then I will take my leave.”
After he spoke, Lin Jing took a step and in the next moment, he disappeared from sight.
Originally…
Night Approaching True Monarch had wanted to talk some more to Lin Jing, to foster a closer relationship.
However, in the next moment, Lin Jing vanished.
Seeing Lin Jing suddenly disappear, Night Approaching True Monarch’s pupils shrank sharply, and his complexion changed dramatically:
“He…
he is certainly not at Nascent Soul Stage…”
“What realm is he really in?”
“Could it be…”
“Above Divinity Transformation?”
…
After leaving Yelin Island, Lin Jing covered the distance to the nearby sea region of Li Flame Island in less than two quarters of an hour.
Before his arrival, Lin Jing’s Divine Sense reached there first.
The Divine Sense at the peak of the Solidifying Body Stage spread out, instantly enveloping the entire Li Flame Island.
The Li Yan Marketplace had expanded.
Compared to before, the Li Yan Marketplace was now even more bustling.
Under Lin Jing’s observation with his Divine Sense, the crowd in the marketplace ebbed and flowed, the scene extraordinarily lively, almost comparable to the Fang Market of Bihai City.
Adjacent to the Li Yan Marketplace was Li Yan City.
Li Yan City, too, had grown larger than before.
And Li Yan City had also changed its name to Li Yan Immortal City; that giant name plaque was hanging at the city gate.
It would be difficult for Lin Jing to overlook it.
Because of the limited area of Li Flame Island, as the city and marketplace grew in size, the Spirit Field area had to shrink in proportion.
Lin Jing noticed through the Formation that the Spirit Fields had reduced to about half their size from before, leaving only the central part where the high-grade Spirit Fields were located.
With Lin Jing’s current level of cultivation, none of the formations on the entire Li Flame Island could block his Divine Sense from probing.
After scanning the Spirit Fields, Lin Jing’s Divine Sense went directly into the forbidden area in the northern part of Li Flame Island and inside the small courtyard of several people.
He wanted to see what they were all doing.
But when Lin Jing’s Divine Sense entered the forbidden area of Li Flame Island, he found only two people inside.
One of them was Li Qingqing.
The other, Ye Yun.
At that moment, Ye Yun was lying on the bed in Li Qingqing’s courtyard, eyes tightly closed, his breath barely discernible.
And Li Qingqing was standing beside the bed, looking at Ye Yun on the bed, her brows slightly furrowed.
Seeing this scene, Lin Jing’s expression suddenly turned grim.
Afterward.
Lin Jing burst forth at top speed, flying towards Li Yan Island.
With his extreme speed, in the blink of an eye, Lin Jing had arrived above Li Yan Island.
Upon reaching Li Yan Island, Lin Jing didn’t delay and went straight to the formation, arriving at Li Qingqing’s small courtyard.
“Qingqing, what happened?”
Lin Jing suddenly blurted out, startling Li Qingqing, who had been watching Ye Yun, causing her to tremble.
Then, Li Qingqing turned her head to look behind her.
She saw Lin Jing approaching.
“Lin Jing, brother…”
Li Qingqing was momentarily bewildered, seemingly unable to believe Lin Jing’s sudden arrival.
Lin Jing nodded gently,
“Hmm, I’ve returned!”
After speaking, Lin Jing looked towards Ye Yun, who was lying on the bed, and asked again:
“What happened to Ye Yun?”
“And where is Lin Jue?
Why isn’t she here?”
Li Qingqing snapped back to reality, looked at Lin Jing, her eyes uncontrollably turning misty red:
“Lin Jing, brother, you’ve finally come back.”
Li Qingqing’s eyes were red as she looked up at Lin Jing, her semblance at that moment was like that of a wronged woman, appearing pitifully charming.
Seeing this, Lin Jing’s heart softened, and then, with a tender look in his eyes, he told Li Qingqing softly:
“You’ve really been wronged during this period.”
Li Qingqing, looking at Lin Jing, shook her head and then turned to Ye Yun on the bed and said:
“Lin Jing, brother…”
“Lin Jue was taken away by someone.”
Hearing this, Lin Jing’s heart flared with anger, and he couldn’t help frowning:
“Who exactly?”
“Dare to come to Li Yan Island and forcibly take Lin Jue away.”
Li Qingqing said:
“It was people from the Changyun Clan.”
“They found out about Lin Jue’s identity as the Lin Family heir and came specifically to take Lin Jue.”
“The Changyun Clan?”
Hearing about the Changyun Clan, Lin Jing’s brows furrowed slightly.
He had just saved Changyun Yuanlei in the Five Elements Ruins, and now his sister had been taken away by the Changyun Clan.
What exactly was the Changyun Clan up to?
Lin Jing then looked towards Ye Yun, who was lying on the bed:
“And what about Ye Yun?
Was it also the doing of the Changyun Clan?”
Li Qingqing nodded:
“Ye Yun wasn’t here when the Changyun Clan arrived.”
“He went to negotiate with the Changyun Clan members of his own accord after he returned and learned that Lin Jue had been taken, wanting to bring Lin Jue back.”
“However, in just half a day, Ye Yun was carried back by someone from the Changyun Clan, and when Ye Yun was brought back, he was already like this.”
“Up to now, Ye Yun has been in a sleeping state.”
Lin Jing’s brows wrinkled slightly as he looked at Ye Yun lying on the bed.
He was aware of the affection between Ye Yun and Lin Jue.
If anything happened to Lin Jue, Ye Yun would definitely do whatever it takes to ensure her safety.
And now, given such circumstances, it was clear that the other party’s cultivation was definitely not low.
Afterward, Lin Jing asked Li Qingqing:
“Do you know the cultivations of the people from the Changyun Clan who came here?”
Li Qingqing nodded and said:
“They mentioned it…”
“The leader of the Changyun Clan people, he is of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, and there were two others with him, both of them Dao Integration Stage cultivators.”
“Transcendance Tribulation Stage…”
Lin Jing was somewhat surprised.
A Bandit Cultivator of the Tribulation Stage had come here specifically to take Lin Jue away.
This showed that Lin Jue was more than ordinarily important to the Changyun Clan.
Thinking this, Lin Jing couldn’t help but worry for Lin Jue.
However, with Lin Jue already taken away, even with his concern, he was too far to quench the nearby fire.
Now he had to first check Ye Yun’s condition instead.
Afterward.
Lin Jing stepped forward, came to the side of the bed, and then stretched out his hand to Ye Yun’s wrist.
Next, Lin Jing concentrated his spiritual power, probing directly into Ye Yun’s body.
Soon.
At Ye Yun’s Dantian, Lin Jing found a huge mass of spiritual power that did not belong to Ye Yun.
This spiritual power was entrenched in Ye Yun’s Dantian and was not causing any harm to his body.
On the contrary, it seemed like the mass of spiritual power was continuously nourishing Ye Yun’s body.
After a brief examination, Lin Jing knew that it wasn’t harmful to Ye Yun, but it wasn’t the reason that had caused Ye Yun to fall asleep either.
There must be something else on Ye Yun.
If there were no surprises, the main cause of Ye Yun’s sleeping state should lie within his sea of consciousness…
