Chapter 252Who is Who
Little Ye, who is this? If this is Tan Xiaohui, then who has been with us all along? Could there be such a coincidence?
Ye Shaoyang did not reply . He did not want to draw any conclusions before he saw the aiding formation . Suddenly, Xiao Ma grabbed Ye Shaoyangs arm; the latter turned and saw that Xiao Ma was looking at him with a stern face .
There is something I must tell you . Remember when we faced the Blood Gu Undead King? When silk came from Xiaohuis direction toward the undead king
Ye Shaoyang instantly recalled that strange incident . At that time, Tan Xiaohui had told him to not look back . . .
Actually, at that time, I saw that all of the silk had come out from Xiaohuis mouth . Later, she told me that the arctic silkworm was in her mouth, and I didnt think too much of it . But I found it odd that she especially told me not to tell anyone .
Ye Shaoyang was shocked and angrily said, So thats why you didnt tell me anything when I asked you!
Xiao Ma scratched his head and replied, Well, she did tell me not to tell you . I didnt think it was a big deal either, so .
Ye Shaoyang let out a bitter smile and thought,
It is indeed a small matter . But if I knew about it earlier, I probably would have figured out the truth .
Right then, the GPS notified: Your destination is less a kilometer away . Old Guo saw the road ahead and told them, We cant drive up anymore; well have to do the rest by foot .
As such, the three left behind the corpse of Tan Xiaohui and began to walk . Ye Shaoyang looked around and saw that the area was mountainous . After confirming that this was the correct place, he figured that the formation must be somewhere high, with little to no human traffic .
Ye Shaoyang took out his Yin Yang Compa.s.s and followed it to the source of Yin Qi .
As he got close to the top of the mountain, Ye Shaoyang paused . He looked around the area and frowned, I think Ive been here before!
Old Guo said, Maybe . This place is not far from Evergreen Villa .
Were not far from Evergreen Villa?
Ye Shaoyang suddenly realized something . He placed down his Yin Yang Compa.s.s and ran toward the mountaintop . Relying on his memory, he found an area where a dead tree laid . The tree was split in half and was dried up . Not far from the tree was a big flat rock .
Ye Shaoyang looked around and muttered, It really is here .
After a short lull of silence, Ye Shaoyang pointed at the dried up tree and said, That tree was a demon tree that I destroyed . That night, I had a battle with it and found Tan Xiaohui inside the tree .
Youve told me about this before, but why did you bring us here? Xiao Ma asked .
This is where the aiding formation is .
Here? Old Guo drew a Testing Talisman Paper and stuck it on the dried up tree . The yellow talisman paper instantly burned and released a light hint of black smoke . Old Guo felt puzzled, The Yin Qi here is not strong it cant be here .
The formation was broken already, or it failed to work . Ye Shaoyang pointed at the dried up tree and explained, This demon tree was previously linked to the Blood PaG.o.da Tree . One Yin, while the other Yang . Unfortunately, the formation was broken, or else Madam Chee would have already been freed .
Old Guo had some knowledge of formations, so he thought for a while and said, This is impossible . If this was the aiding formation for the Five Spirit Formation, this place must also have an underworld spirit . But this is not the case, there is no spirit here .
Ye Shaoyang smiled bitterly, Senior brother, so you do not understand . Tan Xiaohui is one of the spirits of the Five Spirit Formation!
This statement shocked Xiao Ma and Old Guo . Xiao Ma muttered, Youre talking about the Tan Xiaohui in our car?
No . Its the one I saved; the one that has been hanging with us .
How so both of them are Tan Xiaohui?
Ye Shaoyang shook his head and said, The one in the car is the real Tan Xiaohui .
Xiao Ma covered his mouth in shock and asked, So who has been with us all this time?
I told you, one of the five spirits .
Xiao Ma shook his head in denial, No, no, no . Little Ye . I believe in everything you say, but this matter is impossible . Xiao Hui has been with us for so long, and she has even saved you . If she really was a spirit, then wouldnt she have already killed us? I mean, she had so many chances, right?
This is also something that I dont understand, Ye Shaoyang let out a sigh and said, Lets go, well ask her in person .
The three of them quickly got back into the car and drove back to the city .
In the car, all three were busy thinking and pondering, so no one spoke out . When they were close to the city, Xiao Ma finally broke the silence, If Xiao Hui I mean the one that has been with us, was a spirit, would you destroy her?
Of course?
What if she has her reasons; what if Madam Chee forced her; would you let her go in that case?
Ye Shaoyang fell silent; he did not how to answer these questions .
When they returned to the hotel, Ye Shaoyang asked Xiao Ma and Old Guo to wait in the car . He went up alone and arrived at the room where they stayed .
Zhou Jingru came to open the door . When she saw Ye Shaoyang, her eyes brightened up, Big Brother Shaoyang, youre back!
Ye Shaoyang nodded calmly; he walked in and saw the people sitting on the sofa . They were Xie Yuqing, Teng Yongqing, and Tan Xiaohui .
Ye Shaoyangs eyes were fixed on Tan Xiaohui . Tan Xiaohui felt shy about it, so she looked down and asked, Brother Shaoyang, why do you keep looking at me? Did you find any leads?
We found a clue a very important clue .
Oh, what is it?
Looking at her large, glossy eyes, Ye Shaoyang did not know what to feel . He felt a slight hint of hesitation . However, he mustered up the courage and said, We found a body, and it seems like your cousin . We brought it back, so do you want to verify it?
Tan Xiaohuis expressions immediately changed .
My cousin .
Yes, she was in a well .
Tan Xiaohuis face gradually turned pale and expressionless .
Wheres the body; bring it here! Xie Yuqing ordered without knowing what was going on .
Ye Shaoyang called them up, and Xiao Ma brought the body . He laid the body on the sofa, but her face was turned away from them .
When Tan Xiaohui saw the body, she instantly turned numb . She sat down hard on a chair .
Ye Shaoyang walked to the body and turned the face around . Then he asked Tan Xiaohui, Come, is this your cousin?
