Yang Chen's expression tightened. "There has been no trace of Miss Qiuying all this time?"
Zhou Yiming sighed. "That is so."
Yang Chen clasped his hands behind his back and said helplessly, "I understand."
He was somewhat disappointed. Before coming here, he had set his sights on Wan Qiuying. If he rescued her, then leaving aside everything else, two hundred thousand Cosmic Essence would be his, and his merits could immediately rise several ranks.
But now that Wan Qiuying was gone, his merits would be reduced by at least more than half.
Even Zhou Yiming knew about it. If he wanted to investigate further, he would have to start with those Ghost Kings.
As he pondered, several rolling sounds came from underground.
The next moment, Ling Huansha and the others appeared, leading several cultivators beside them to this place.
After Ling Huansha arrived, the man surnamed Han immediately turned his gaze to Zhou Yiming.
"From the looks of it, the plan devised by Daoist Friend Zhou and Daoist Friend Yang Chen was to steal the Calamity Orb and lure those Ghost Kings over, correct?" the man surnamed Han said.
Zhou Yiming said, "Correct. That was precisely the plan."
"If that is the case, the Calamity Orb has already been stolen. We can withdraw from this place now, can we not?" the man surnamed Han said.
Hearing this, Zhou Yiming shook his head. "Daoist Friend Han, I am not in a hurry to leave right now. If you all wish to leave, you may go ahead first. When the time comes, I will return to the Earth Spirit Hall with Daoist Friend Yang Chen and help you obtain the Cosmic Essence."
"You!" The man surnamed Han flew into a rage, wanting to erupt, yet he had no choice but to swallow
