C2156 Thousand Faces Lake
Hearing Feng Ze's words, Lin Long frowned.
It would be difficult for him to save Wu Ziheng just because of this.
"Then, is Wu Ziheng alright?" Lin Long asked again.
"Dean Wu Ziheng naturally cannot avoid being beaten up by Dean Feng. However, this is only a beating, not a life threatening one." Feng Ze said.
"That's good." Lin Long nodded his head, then asked: "I heard that the Emperor sent a Ranker who can activate the level 6 Ice Talisman, is the Ranker still in the Mask Academy?"
"That expert is in Mask Academy. I don't know the specifics, but I've never seen him before, and neither have those people I followed." Feng Ze said.
"Is that so?" Lin Long frowned.
"Brother Lin, can you let me go?" Feng Ze, who was afraid that Lin Long would attack him, quickly followed suit.
"Seeing that you are being honest, I will not kill you. However, before I leave, I will have to make it so that you can consume the Ten Day Heart Attacking Pill." Lin Long said.
As he said that, he took out a Ten Day Heart Attacking Pill and threw it to his opponent.
What can Feng Ze do after receiving it? He could only obediently swallow it.
"This Ten Day Heart Attacking Pill is something that not even the most powerful Wind Master of the Ice Peak Nation could deal with, so I hope you don't play any tricks on it!" Lin Long said coldly.
"Brother Lin, thank you ? Don't worry, I definitely won't play any tricks. " Feng Ze hurriedly said.
Then he said, "What can I do for you?"
"Help me. There's no need for that for now. You just have to stay put and not reveal my whereabouts." Lin Long said.
"Alright." Feng Ze nodded heavily.
"Okay, you can leave now. As for the antidote, I'll give it to you regularly in the future." Lin Long immediately said.
Feng Ze quickly left.
After Feng Ze left, Lin Long turned around and walked towards the west of the catacombs world.
Right now, it was very difficult to save Wu Ziheng, so he decided to give up for now and kill the purple tiger first.
The reason why he let Feng Ze go was not because he was kind, but because he did not want Gu Heng and the others to be vigilant. In this case, once Feng Ze disappeared, Gu Heng and the others would definitely notice him.
Otherwise, how could he have kept a hidden danger like Feng Ze?

Zhang Cheng had no idea where this wild wolf was bringing him to. It had been walking for a long time, passing through several caves, but it still did not stop.
The only thing he could understand was that the wolf must have been ordered by someone, otherwise, it would have eaten him alive long ago.
Zhang Cheng did not dare to call out because he was afraid that the members of the Lu and Mu Families would be attracted to him if he did so. Thus, he could only allow the wild wolf to carry him away.
After another hour, the wild wolf finally stopped and directly placed him on the ground.
At this moment, Zhang Cheng saw a middle-aged man in black standing in front of him. This middle-aged man was expressionless as he looked at him and asked, "You're Zhang Cheng?"
"Yes, I'm Zhang Cheng. Who are you? What do you want to do?" Zhang Cheng quickly replied.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you for now." The black-clothed middle-aged man said.
"Then you want to take me to the Emperor for a meritorious service?" Zhang Cheng could not help but ask.
"You're wrong, I wouldn't do that." The other party said.
"Then what do you want?" Zhang Cheng was puzzled. He could tell that the other party was not lying to him.
The man did not answer, but asked, "Do you know where Qian Jiayi and the rest are?"
"I want to know how I can still come to the Lu family." Zhang Cheng smiled bitterly.
"That's true." The other party nodded before saying, "Then, I can only take you away first."
Saying so, he took a step forward and took out a black cloth.
Is this person trying to blindfold me? Zhang Cheng guessed.
Sure enough, with these thoughts, the other party's black cloth had already wrapped itself around his head and covered his eyes.
After that, the man in black led Zhang Cheng forward.
After walking for a whole day and a half, Zhang Cheng felt like he had arrived at a lakeside. The other party brought him aboard the boat. The boat only stopped after an hour, and the other party brought him on.
He probably came to the other party's camp because he met a few people who greeted him.
After the time it took to make a cup of tea, the black cloth was taken away. At this moment, Zhang Cheng found himself in a room, with a middle-aged man in black standing in front of him.
"You can stay here." After saying that, the middle-aged man in black left, leaving behind a confused Zhang Cheng.
The middle-aged man dressed in black then walked up to a young man in his thirties. The young man had a cold expression on his face.
"Greetings, Young Lord!" The black clothed middle-aged man said respectfully.
"You caught that Zhang Cheng?" The young man called Young Lord asked.
"Yes, Young Lord." The black clothed middle-aged man replied, "He is currently locked in his room, does Young Lord want to go over to take a look?"
"Mm, bring me there." The youth said.
"Young Lord, follow me." As he spoke, the black-clothed middle-aged man led the way.
Very quickly, he brought the youth to the room where Zhang Cheng was locked up.
Looking at Zhang Cheng, the young man asked, "You're Zhang Cheng?"
"That's right, I'm Zhang Cheng. Who are you?" Zhang Cheng frowned.
He could already tell that the black-clothed middle-aged man was clearly this youth's subordinate.
The youth smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, this is Thousand Faces Lake."
"Thousand Faces Lake?" Zhang Cheng could not help but be surprised. He had not expected himself to be in such a place.
The Thousand Faces Lake was very mysterious in the eyes of the Ice Peak Country's people because almost no one knew where the Thousand Faces Lake was located.
It was at this moment that he finally understood why the other party had covered his eyes all the way.
"What the hell are you guys doing?" Zhang Cheng asked again.
"It's simple, I want you to lure Qian Jiayi and the others over!" The youth sneered.
"From the looks of it, you seem to have a grudge with that Lady Qian?" Zhang Cheng could not help but ask.
"That's right, I have a grudge with Qian Jiayi!" The young man in front of him sneered again, then changed the subject, "I heard Wu Ziheng told you to bring something to Qian Jiayi. What is that thing? Is it on you now?"
"That thing has already been snatched away by the Lu family and the Mu family!" Zhang Cheng said.
"Mm, is this true?" The youth said in a cold tone.
At the same time, he turned to look at the black-clothed, middle-aged man.
"Young master, I've been keeping an eye on him all this time, he must still have the item on him." The black-clothed middle-aged man quickly replied.
"Oh, looks like you can still lie?" Turning around to look at Zhang Cheng, a sinister smile appeared on the young man's face.
With that, he kicked Zhang Cheng in the stomach.
"Wow ?"
The intense pain made Zhang Cheng cry out in pain.
The youth said to the middle-aged man next to him, "When you have time, torture him properly. I hate people who lie the most in my life. Moreover, they lie to me!"
"Yes, Young Lord!" The black clothed middle-aged man said respectfully.
"Presumably, that thing is in your spatial ring." As he spoke, the youth stepped forward and took the spatial ring from Zhang Cheng's hand.
Zhang Cheng naturally did not want to hand it over, but he was unable to move at all.
Very quickly, this youth took out a glass bottle from his spatial ring.
Opening the bottle, he took a closer look and a trace of surprise appeared on his face. He then said, "It's actually the Purple Tiger's blood essence!"
The young man seemed to be very knowledgeable. After thinking for a while, he said, "Don't tell me Qian Jiayi and the others can make the Purple Flame Talismans?"
"That should be the case. Otherwise, why would His Majesty be in such a hurry?" After some thought, he spoke to himself even more affirmatively.
After saying this, he directly kept the glass bottle and led the black clothed middle-aged man out.
"Young master, what should we do next?" At this time, the middle-aged man in black asked.
"Didn't Qian Jiayi have subordinates operating on the western street of the imperial city? As long as we spread some news, they would find us." The youth said.
"This subordinate will do as you say." The black-clothed middle-aged man immediately said.
"Alright!" The youth nodded.
The black-clothed middle-aged man then left to do this matter.
Very quickly, Elder Liang, who was in charge of collecting information in the Imperial City, received such information. Elder Liang immediately reported this matter to Wang Ying Xiang.
Wang Ying Xiang did not follow Lin Long and Qian Jiayi to Heyuan City's Mask Institution. Instead, they returned to the Imperial City.
"Yes, someone captured Principal Wu's disciple Zhang Cheng and wants to make a deal with us?" Hearing Elder Liang's words, Wang Yingxiu frowned.
The news of the Emperor sending people to chase Wu Ziheng's men had already spread across the entire Ice Peak Country, so they naturally knew about it.
As for Wang Yingyu, he had a faint feeling that Zhang Cheng had the blood essence of a violet tiger.
"Yes, Young Master Wang." Elder Liang nodded.
"This news can't be fake, right?" Wang Ying said.
"I think it's very likely to be true. Young Master Wang, we might as well go take a look." Elder Liang said.
"Alright, then take us to see it." Wang Ying Xiang nodded.
After that, Elder Liang brought Wang Yingxiu and the others to see the person that gave him the information.
Before long, they saw him in a tavern. He was a man wearing a big bamboo hat that covered most of his face. Wang Yingxiu and the others could only see his chin.
"You said that you have news of Zhang Cheng, but he was taken by someone else?" Wang Yingyu went straight to the point.
"That's right. If you believe me, you can go to the west dock of the Dingcheng River at midnight. And it can only be you. " The other party said.
With that, the man stood up and left.
"Young Master Wang, should we follow him?" A person beside Wang Yingxiu quickly replied.
"No need." Wang Jiexi shook his head. He had already decided to come to the Dingcheng River at midnight tonight.
"Master Wang, do you want to go alone?" Elder Liang at the side could not help but say.
"Yes." Wang Ying Xiang nodded.
"Young Master Wang, this isn't appropriate. It is too dangerous for you to go alone. How about this, you stay in the light while the rest of us stay in the dark. That way nothing will happen." Li Tong couldn't help but say.
"Alright then, let's do it like this." After pondering for a moment, Wang Ying said.
At night, when it was close to midnight, Wang Yingxiang and his men went directly to the west side of the city's river.
There was no one here. Therefore, Li Tong and the others did not dare to get too close. Instead, they let Wang Ying Xiang walk alone to the dock.
Wang Yingyu did not find anyone after arriving here. Even after waiting for an hour, he still could not find anyone.
Had he been deceived by someone? Wang Yingxiu frowned.
Just as he was about to leave, a masked man dressed in black appeared in front of him.
"Are you the one who agreed?" The other party looked at Wang Ying Xiang.
"That's right." Wang Ying Xiang nodded.
"Oh, then you can tell me, are you one of Qian Jiayi's men?" The masked man in black asked.
"That's right." Wang Yingxiu nodded again and asked, "Is Zhang Cheng really with you?"
"Zhang Cheng is indeed out here, but I noticed that you were being dishonest. You were the only one who came, yet you still have a lot of people behind you." The other party suddenly said.
He did not expect that Li Tong and the others would still be discovered by the other party from such a distance away.
"I'll let them go now!" Wang Yingyu quickly replied.
Who would have thought that the other party would say, "There's no need ?" "If you really want to find Zhang Cheng, then tell Qian Jiayi to come here herself!"
"Why do you need Lady Qian?" Wang Ying Xiang frowned.
"You don't need to ask. In short, you need Qian Jiayi to come personally. Otherwise, you won't be able to see Zhang Cheng!" After saying that, the other side actually turned and left.
"Wait!" Wang Yingyu quickly replied.
"Hmm, what is it?" the man asked.
"If Miss Qian were to come, could it be that she would be the only one to go? Also, when will I be able to see you two again? " Wang Yingyu asked.
"Of course it can only be her ? As for the time, every night at midnight! " With that, the other party left in large strides.
Wang Jiaxi did not chase because he did not have the confidence to take down the opponent.
Subsequently, he walked to the side of Li Tong and the others.
"What's the situation now?" When they saw Wang Yingyu return, Li Tong and the rest quickly asked.
"The request is that Lady Qian Jiayi come." Wang Ying Xiang said.
"What request is this?" Upon hearing his words, Li Tong and the rest could not help but become puzzled.
"I don't know." Wang Ying Xiang shook his head.
"Then when the time comes, can you have a few people follow Miss Qian?" Li Tong asked.
"The other party said that Lady Qian came alone." Wang Yingyu replied.
"Isn't this very dangerous? You can't let Miss Qian come alone."
"I also think it's dangerous." Wang Ying Xiang nodded his head, and said: "But no matter what, this matter needs to be reported to Miss Qian and Lin Gongzi, and they will decide when the time comes."
"Of course." Li Tong and the others nodded.
After that, they left the place. After that, Li Tong headed towards Heyuan City to look for Qian Jiayi, Lin Long and the rest.
