The Tamo squad lurking within Cangxue Mang Mountain was an elite force carefully selected and dispatched by Taiyi City. Their overall strength was exceptionally formidable.
There were seven members in total, none weak. The lowest cultivation among them was mid Emperor Realm. Their methods were covert and their combat prowess refined; they were Taiyi City's dagger planted within the Dark Mist Realm.
When Zhou Zhihao was instantly captured by Lin Yi and completely lost contact, the remaining six members immediately became alert. They promptly abandoned their respective hiding spots and followed the lingering traces of his aura, swiftly gathering in the depths of the divine mountain.
Every one of them was tense as they hurried toward the scene.
While the team was moving, one person lowered his voice and looked gravely at Tamo, who was leading them. "Lingta, what exactly happened? Zhou Zhihao's aura has completely vanished. We can't sense any trace of him at all."
Lingta was Tamo's true name.
At that moment, anxiety covered his goat-like face, and uncertainty colored his voice. "I can't determine the cause either. Logically speaking, this divine mountain is of no low rank, and there are very few Evil Creatures stationed here. There shouldn't be any fatal threat. The only variable left is the Heaven Python Evil Emperor, who has been in seclusion recovering from his injuries. Most likely, he made a move."
"That doesn't sound right, does it?" Another person in the group immediately questioned him, suspicion filling his eyes. "You clearly said before that the Heaven Python Evil Emperor had been secluded in the neighboring divine mountain, recuperating from injuries that had yet to heal. He has rarely concerned himself with outside matters these past few days."
Another member echoed in a deep voice, his tone carrying a trace of distrust.
