Among all the "bad news," Chi Xue and the others finally received some good news—Feng Lingzi had left the area around the Mo Family's stronghold. Though they didn't know where he had gone, his departure meant the sword hanging over the Mo Family's head had finally lifted. The Mo Family's disciples all breathed a long sigh of relief.
After hearing this, Chi Xue and the others also breathed a sigh of relief. They had worried that with Feng Lingzi watching the Mo Family's stronghold, they wouldn't be able to withdraw easily when the experts from Fengyun Pavilion retaliated. Now that he was gone, they could leave the stronghold and hide without trouble.
It made sense. Under the surveillance of an expert of Feng Lingzi's caliber, it would have been difficult for Chi Xue and the Jade Devouring Sky Python to leave the Mo Family and hide. It might even have been impossible. Now that they no longer had to worry about that, this was naturally good news for them.
"Tun Tian, are you sure Feng Lingzi has left?" Chi Xue asked again, showing just how much he valued this matter.
"Our people have searched everywhere nearby and haven't found any trace of Feng Lingzi. Someone of his caliber wouldn't bother concealing his aura or changing his appearance," the Jade Devouring Sky Python replied. Then its tone shifted. "To make sure, the Quasi-Sage experts of the Mo Family also went out to investigate, but they didn't find him either. So he must have withdrawn."
Before Chi Xue could speak, it let out a strange laugh. "Heh heh, this is good news for us. Without Feng Lingzi watching us, we can leave the Mo Family's stronghold and hide with ease. Then we won't have to worry about Fengyun Pavilion retaliating."
