Jiang'an City.

It was not only Jiang Chen and others who sensed the sudden departure of Long Ling, but many warlocks far away in Jiang'an City also noticed it.

The moment the dragon spirit disappeared, the warlocks with lower cultivation levels all sensed a strange feeling. Although they didn't know exactly what happened, they had a vague intuition in their hearts that something big had happened.

As for the higher-level warlocks in the city, they all stopped what they were doing and turned to look northwest, which was the direction of Kunlun Mountain.

The sudden disappearance of the dragon spirit in Qianlong Vein has a huge impact.

...

Somewhere in Jiang'an City.

In a spacious room, two people were sitting opposite each other and chatting about something - it was Master Shengyuan and the middle-aged doctor who was half a step up to heaven.

At a certain moment, the middle-aged man suddenly stood up from his seat and looked to the northwest with a surprised look on his face.

In contrast, Master Shengyuan opposite him was much calmer, still leaning on the sofa with a relaxed expression, but frowned slightly when he sensed the disappearance of the dragon spirit.

"I finally left!"

"Um?"

The middle-aged doctor's attention was attracted by Master Sheng Yuan's soft words to himself, and he immediately asked with some curiosity.

"Master, do you know that Long Ling is leaving?"

Master Shengyuan nodded slightly, motioning for the middle-aged man to sit down first, and then found the most comfortable position for himself on the sofa.

"When I discovered that the dragon vein was destroyed, I guessed that the dragon spirit would probably leave here soon."

"But the dragon's veins have been destroyed for a while, why did he suddenly leave until now?"

"I have received news that Jiang Chen and his party left Jiang'an City this morning."

Master Shengyuan did not directly answer the middle-aged doctor's question. Instead, the topic changed and he suddenly mentioned Jiang Chen. Then, before the middle-aged man could continue to ask questions, he immediately added.

"After they left the city, they went directly into the mountains outside the city!"

As soon as these words came out, the middle-aged man reacted instantly.

"Ah~ I see!"

"As soon as they entered the deep mountains, the dragon spirit, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly left. If this matter had nothing to do with them, then it would be a mistake!"

"That's right. In the entire metaphysical world, that boy is the only one who has dragon energy in his body, and he is the only one who is most likely to have communication with the dragon spirit!"

Master Shengyuan nodded in agreement, tapped the armrest of the sofa with his fingers, and said softly.

"Yes, although I don't know what happened in the mountains, it must be related to that boy!"

"No wonder Master, you are so optimistic about Jiang Chen, that little guy is indeed outstanding!"

Recalling Jiang Chen's previous outstanding performances, a rare look of appreciation appeared on the middle-aged man's unsmiling face. That young man's performance was indeed worthy of such an evaluation.

Often following Master Shengyuan, he naturally knew the master's "preference" for Jiang Chen, and at this moment, he felt even more moved by the fact that the master's eyes were as bright as a torch.

While he was sighing, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and his expression suddenly changed.

"Master, there are many people who are plotting against Jiang Chen. Wouldn't they use this matter as an excuse to cause trouble?"

The middle-aged people knew very well that since they could know the movements of Jiang Chen and his party, it would not be difficult for others to know about it. Combined with the fact that Jiang Chen had dragon energy hidden in him, it would be easy to take the dragon spirit into account.

The sudden departure was associated with him.

"It stands to reason that anyone with a discerning eye would know that it was not Jiang Chen who left Long Ling."

"But..." Master Shengyuan's tone suddenly changed and he continued.

"After living a comfortable life for more than ten years, today's metaphysical world is no longer the same metaphysical world that worked together to eliminate evil. The increasingly expanded inner desires have seriously corrupted many sects and aristocratic families."

"No one can say whether there will be someone who is motivated by greed and will use this to attack Jiang Chen. If this is the case, then this metaphysical world may really be over!"

Master Shengyuan slapped his palm heavily on the armrest of the sofa, leaning his head back against the backrest of the sofa. There was an unconcealable disappointment and melancholy in his words.

The middle-aged man remained silent for a moment, then spoke again and asked tentatively.

"Master, if someone really does this, what will you do?"

"What else can be done?" Master Shengyuan sighed helplessly, "Now my position does not allow me to be too partial to anyone!"

The middle-aged man was silent for a moment again.

"If this situation really arises, can you really turn a blind eye?"

Master Shengyuan was silent for a long time, and then he said quietly

"I just hope... no one is really that stupid!"

【Thunder Fire Sect】Headquarters.

The senior leaders of the sect and several outstanding young disciples all gathered together. The first one was still the sect leader, Master Ting Ni. After noticing the disappearance of the dragon spirit, they immediately convened this emergency meeting.

Master Tingni sat upright on his chair, looking around at a circle of important figures in the sect with no joy or sadness on his face.

"How's it going?"

"Return to the leader, it has been confirmed that the dragon spirit has disappeared!"

"Where is Jiang Chen?"

"Jiang Chen went out this morning and has not returned yet. We have already heard that they entered the mountains after leaving Jiang'an City."

This answer did not go beyond Master Tingni's expectations. After learning that the dragon spirit had disappeared, he immediately associated the matter with Jiang Chen.

"Next, tell me what you think!"

I'm very sorry. I'm a little uncomfortable having just arrived in a completely unfamiliar city, and there are a lot of procedures and trivial matters to deal with. I really didn't have time to type words yesterday, so I just wrote some in a hurry today!
