"Well, the jade token she gave me contains something that can locate us. No matter where we go, she can quickly find out where we are," Zeng Wenyu nodded and said to Mu Zhi, "I think these people are already veterans. Every cultivator who came out of the White Mist Forest should have been dealt with by them in this way."

"Of course. The minds of you humans are the most difficult to guess. Even when it comes to life and death, there will always be betrayers. I estimate that there are only two outcomes for the monks they target. Either they go with them on the spot and are taken to a secluded place to take what they want, or they don't go with them and are quietly killed by them after they leave. By then, they will be left with nothing and buried somewhere unknown."

"Alas..." Zeng Wenyu sighed, "Humans are all like this. There will always be people like this. But Sister Mu Zhi, why didn't you let me refuse directly just now? With our cultivation level, we shouldn't be afraid of these people, right?"

"We are not afraid of these people, but we have better options!"

Seeing the sinister smile on Mu Zhi's face when she said this, Zeng Wenyu only needed to think about it for a moment before he figured out what Mu Zhi wanted to do. She wanted to rob her fellow thieves!

"Do you understand?" Mu Zhi asked Zeng Wenyu with a smile.

"Well, Sister Mu Zhi, you have such a superb disguise skill, and there are no spies in this inn. They dare not act rashly in a place like the inn that is protected by the dynasty. We can disguise ourselves and go out, wait for them to get anxious, quietly follow behind them, find their gathering point, and then rob them!"

"Right? Anyway, they took ill-gotten gains. As long as we can kill them without anyone noticing, then the things they collected will be ours. We can just let them take the blame."

When Zeng Wenyu and Mu Zhi said this, they both laughed slyly a few times and then began to prepare.

Not long after, two ordinary monks in ordinary clothes left the inn. The inn was crowded with people coming and going every day, and the old woman who was following them did not suspect anything when she saw them leave. In her perception, the positioning jade token was still in the room. In addition, Zeng Wenyu had just said that he wanted to rest, so she did not pay special attention to the people who left the inn.

Zeng Wenyu and Mu Zhi left the inn and walked out of the settlement. Then they walked around, changed their faces, and re-entered the settlement from another place. They walked to a small teahouse not far from the inn, ordered a pot of tea, and looked at the old woman who had not yet reacted from a distance.

It was not known whether the old woman was overconfident or stupid. Zeng Wenyu and Mu Zhi had already drunk four pots of tea, but she had not reacted yet and was still waiting outside the inn. This made the two of them, who had a belly full of tea, a little overwhelmed. Even if the tea provided by this small teahouse was spiritual tea, it was not durable to drink like this. What's more, the two of them had been sitting in the teahouse drinking tea for so long, others would become suspicious. So when they saw that the old woman still had no movement, they changed to a restaurant, ordered some food, and began to chew it carefully.

The whole afternoon passed like this, and the old woman finally discovered something was wrong. She quickly walked into the inn, and walked out of the inn with a grim face a few minutes later, still holding the positioning magic weapon that Zeng Wenyu found from the jade token in her hand, and then hurriedly walked towards the east of the settlement.

Seeing the old woman leave, Zeng Wenyu and Mu Zhi breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. They had changed places a lot this afternoon, and when they saw the old woman leave, they suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Following the old woman from a distance, the two men followed the old woman all the way to a small camp on the east side of the settlement. The old woman walked into the camp and entered the largest tent in the middle. Soon after, a man's scolding voice came from the tent, and the old woman walked out of the tent with a livid face, cursing.

Seeing this, Zeng Wenyu said to Mu Zhi beside him: "It seems that this is where these people are, but I suspect this is not their final hiding place. This should be just a transit station. Even if the two of us rush in, we won't be able to get much."

"Indeed, the cultivation level of the person in the tent is not high, only at the late stage of the Infant Realm," Mu Zhi retracted her divine sense. "A cultivator at the late stage of the Infant Realm could scold the old woman in front of her. It seems that he must be the child of a powerful cultivator in this group. Otherwise, how could the old woman in the Divine Realm allow him to insult her?"

"Keep waiting?"

"Keep waiting!"

About an incense stick of time later, a young man walked out of the big tent in the middle. He walked out of the camp and flew south along the path beside the camp.

Facing a cultivator who had just reached the Infant Realm, Zeng Wenyu and Mu Zhi were not so careful. As long as the two of them didn't want to, the young man would not be able to sense that they were following him.

The young man's flying speed was not very fast. Compared with the flying speed of other Infant Realm monks, he was like a snail crawling. He flew for a quarter of an hour and only flew a distance of more than ten miles. Moreover, when he arrived at his destination and fell from the sky, his whole body seemed to be hollowed out, his legs were trembling, and his face was a little pale.

There are not many people living in this place, but even in this remote place, there is a small house. When the young man fell from the sky, the door of the small house was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged woman walked out of the house.

The middle-aged woman saw the young man and hurriedly walked to his side: "My son, how did you get here? And why did you fly here? Didn't I tell you not to use your cultivation unless there is something important?"

"Mom! That damn old woman let two big fish escape! And she also destroyed the jade pendant that you worked so hard to make!" The young man hugged the middle-aged woman's arm and complained.

"What do you mean by old hag? She is your grandma after all! Why do you call her that?" The middle-aged woman frowned slightly. "Next time, just call her the Immortal Old One! So the Immortal Old One didn't keep an eye on her prey and let it run away? I knew the Immortal Old One was unreliable. If it weren't for the fact that her cultivation was still useful and could help our family of three, I would have kicked her out of the house long ago!"

"How can you say that, honey? She is your mother after all! And she also helped you get a lot of things that belonged to your sister. How can you say that?" A fat man with a protruding belly squeezed out of the door. "Why didn't they make the door bigger when they built this house? Every time I come out, the fat on my belly gets stuck. It's very uncomfortable!"

"Who told you to eat so much? I'm busy cooking for you from morning till night!"

"What are you saying? Didn't I reward you? Didn't I improve your cultivation by giving you the essence of the natural treasures I ate? If not, how could I be so fat?!"
