Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 1685 Reencounter with the Lucky Star

Ye Qing and his two companions continued their journey, and soon they arrived at the bridge. However, since it was daytime, the place seemed relatively peaceful. They crossed the bridge and quickly reached the withered tree in Verati City!

They descended along the tree hollow and arrived at the place where they had once obtained the Ao Mirror.

Ao Jing's face showed a trace of sadness!

Ye Qing patted his shoulder and said, "Your mother vanished in this place. This is your first time paying respects to her, so stay here a little longer! I'm going out for a walk! Remember, it won't be long. I'll come back to pick you up before dark, otherwise you won't be able to leave until tomorrow!"

“Okay!” Ao Jing nodded and said.

“I’ll stay here too!” Long Rui said. “I have a feeling that I might still have some opportunities here that could help me break through to the Saint realm. If I’m cultivating when you come back, just take Ao Jing back with you. You should remember the route. I’ll come back tomorrow!”

Ye Qing nodded and said, "That works too!"

Ye Qing walked out!

He had been to Verratti City many times and was quite familiar with the area. The reason he wanted to come out for a walk was to see if he could run into his "lucky star"!

Back in the city of Verratti, he met an old woman who asked Ye Qing to deliver a letter to a peddler. That's how he met the peddler, and it also brought him three strokes of good luck!

If she could meet him again this time, and if she could have three more strokes of good luck, her safety in Silent Hill would be greatly improved.

Following his memory, Ye Qing walked aimlessly for a distance, then looked around and said, "I should have met her in this area before, so why didn't I see her this time?"

He knew that those sealed here were unable to leave their own space. He had been wandering around for so long, either because they couldn't get out, or because they didn't want to see him!

Ye Qing sighed, then turned to leave!

After walking a few steps, suddenly a voice rang out, "Young friend, please wait!"

Just then, a voice rang out.

Upon hearing the voice, Ye Qing turned around and was slightly delighted.

Not far away, a kind-looking old woman was standing, smiling at him.

"Senior!" Ye Qing said, "It's been a long time!"

"Yes, it's been a long time. I never expected that you would reach the peak of the Venerable realm in such a short time. Your talent is truly remarkable!" the old lady said.

"I have already delivered your letter to the peddler," Ye Qing said.

"I know!" the old woman laughed. "Why did you come back to this place again? It's dangerous here. You finally reached the peak of the Venerable Realm. Don't wander around in Verati City. If you run into the woodcutter, you'll be in trouble!"

Ye Qing smiled and said, "I'll just..."

"You've come looking for me, haven't you? You must know who I am!" the old woman said with a smile.

Ye Qing coughed lightly and scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly!

"Go!" the old woman said. "Go in peace. Someone will protect you, and luck will be with you!"

"Join the Great Emperor realm soon, there are many people who need you, who need you to save them!" The old woman smiled, and then her figure vanished into thin air.

Ye Qing looked around, but he couldn't sense any change. Nevertheless, he still said, "Thank you, senior!"

With that, he hurried back towards the withered tree!

Before dark, Long Rui also came out. She didn't find any opportunities; it was mostly just a psychological effect on her.

The group returned to their lodgings, and it was already getting dark.

They hadn't waited long when suddenly Ye Qing heard hurried footsteps rushing towards the river.

"Someone's coming!" Ye Qing's expression shifted, then he looked at the big yellow dog and said, "Silly dog, conceal our presence!"

The big yellow dog quickly used its technique to shield everyone's presence!

Before long, the footsteps grew closer and closer, and soon he arrived at the place.

However, when they saw each other, they were both stunned.

The person who appeared was not Huang Ge, but an elderly man who looked somewhat hunched over. When he saw Ye Qing and the others, he was clearly taken aback and said, "You...you are Ye Qing, who was being hunted down by the Heavenly Court..."

Ye Qing's expression shifted.

Just then, Ling Yingxue's pupils flickered slightly as she said, "You could be... Han Zhong!"

"Do you know this old man?" Han Chong asked, his expression shifting.

“I’m from the Mills Pirate Crew!” Ling Yingxue said. “We’ve met once before!”

"The Mills Pirates, are you Miss Ling Yingxue?" Han Zhong asked, his pupils shrinking.

"Who is he?" Cao Luo asked.

“He is a veteran peak Venerable expert from the Chaotic Star Sea!” Ling Yingxue said, “Why are you here?”

Han Zhong's expression shifted slightly as he said, "Naturally, my lifespan is nearing its end. I'm not confident I can survive the next tribulation, so I wanted to come in and try my luck to see if I can avoid it and find some opportunities to leave this place."

Han Zhong licked his lips and said, "I never expected to run into you here!"

As he spoke, his eyes flickered, and he said, "You were also driven to this place by the Heavenly Court's relentless pursuit, weren't you?"

Seeing his expression, Ye Qing chuckled and looked at him with interest, asking, "What do you want to do?"

"What I want to do? Naturally... I hope you'll obediently hand over the treasures you're carrying!" Han Zhong said, "I'll spare your lives!"

"You...you're going to rob us?" Everyone was stunned.

"Otherwise what?" Han Zhong said, "Stop talking nonsense and hand over the goods, or I'll kill you all right now!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qing and the others all burst into laughter.
