Yunxi did not tell anyone else about her discovery, because she had no way to explain why her divine sense was so much stronger than her cultivation. Still, she secretly left a thread of divine sense on that male cultivator.
The other man wore a black Dharma robe and was dressed like a Rogue Cultivator. The only thing on him worth any spirit stones was the Spirit Sword in his hand. His looks were utterly ordinary as well, unlikely to draw much notice from others.
An hour later, everyone gathered in the City Lord's Mansion courtyard. They questioned one another, hoping someone had found something, but in the end, they were all disappointed.
Zuo Die'er's attention was fixed entirely on getting out of here, and she no longer pestered Zhou Langchen. Mingya, on the other hand, kept letting her gaze drift toward Zhou Langchen from time to time.
Yunxi secretly sent Zhen Tongshuang a voice transmission about her discovery. Zhen Tongshuang looked as though she were saying, You still have the mood to gossip about something like this? She nearly failed to maintain her cold and aloof persona.
"Didn't you find anything else?"
"...Not for now."
Yunxi did not rule it out completely.
Naturally, no one else had found anything either. Their expressions grew increasingly grim. The longer they remained trapped, the slimmer their chances of escape became.
After pondering for a while, Zhou Langchen said:
"Do not lose heart, everyone. Just because we have not found anything does not mean there is nothing to find. Perhaps it will only reveal itself when the right day and opportunity arrive.
"If I remember correctly, tomorrow is the day Li Cangyuan becomes cultivation partners. Let us wait and see what happens."
He had a feeling that tomorrow would bring a turning point.
