He was sitting cross-legged on a futon, closing his eyes to recuperate.

Right next to him, three children, only seven or eight years old, lay unconscious together, breathing normally, and had not yet been harmed.

"The person behind the scenes hasn't arrived yet?"

Su Yun raised an eyebrow.

This monk was clearly a subordinate of the person behind the scenes, possessing only the aura of the fifth level of the Qi Sea realm.

"Wait and see."

He calmed himself down and prepared to see what would happen next.

Soon, another half hour passed.

The sun has disappeared, night is slowly falling, and the sky is gradually darkening.

Inside the cave, the subordinate opened his eyes.

He then took out the communication jade and contacted the person behind the scenes.

"Master, there were no obstacles this time. The child has been captured. We waited for quite a while, and since night fell, no one has appeared. It's safe."

"You may come now."

After a series of communications, he put away the jade.

Outside, Su Yun's eyes were cold.

"Truly cunning..."

After waiting for so long and confirming that there were no problems, the person behind the scenes was finally dispatched. No wonder he didn't encounter the person behind the scenes last time he came.

This guy is way too cautious!

Who exactly are you?

Su Yun was curious. Someone who paid so much attention to status must be at least of the same generation as Abbot Daozhen, perhaps an elder or something similar!

However, their identities should be revealed soon!

Just then, a rustling sound came from behind.

Turning his head, he saw that the fat monk in a cassock had already approached him.

Seeing that he had come alone, Su Yun frowned slightly and asked, "Where is Abbot Daozhen?"

Upon hearing this, the fat monk shook his head and said, "I couldn't find him; he doesn't seem to be in the temple."

"After all, I am just an outsider monk. How can I so easily communicate with the abbot of Dayan Temple?"

Hearing this, Su Yun frowned slightly.

However, he had anticipated this possibility.

Then, after a moment of contemplation, he said, "The two of us should be able to hold on for a while."

"Just to be on the safe side, I'll set up a formation."

Since Abbot Daozhen didn't come, he now needed to set up the formation outside the wasteland where he obtained the Soul Wood, which could fight and kill cultivators of the same realm.

This was the first time he had ever arranged such a formation in its entirety, including trapping beasts and attacking formations, and he had inscribed them all.

It still takes some effort.

The combined blessing of Dao Source and Hidden Breath Pearl allowed him to set up an array without being detected by the monk inside the cave.

Su Yun sat cross-legged on the spot, first using his spiritual energy to inscribe the complete array patterns in his palm, and then deduced them for about ten minutes before ensuring there were no errors.

Then it sank into the ground.

"That's all."

Su Yun didn't know how much damage this formation could cause to the person behind it all.

A powerful cultivator can inscribe a formation on the ground, which will have formidable power.

However, his strength is insufficient, so the formation is naturally somewhat weak and the foundation is unstable. Nevertheless, it should be able to trap cultivators at the sixth or seventh level of the Qi Sea.

So the two continued to wait there, talking quietly in the meantime.

Finally, after nearly an hour.

Su Yun's previously calm expression suddenly sharpened.

"coming!"

His divine sense was powerful and strong, and he immediately noticed the commotion in the distance.

The fat cultivator followed Su Yun's gaze and looked into the distance as well.

"call out!"

In the distance, a figure was moving leisurely through the mountains and forests, without moving very fast.

However, each time he flashes by, he can easily disappear ten meters away, as if it were a kind of teleportation skill.

With just one glance, Su Yun knew that this person's movement technique was at least at the middle-grade level of the Earth rank!

"How cautious."

Ahead, the figure was also dressed in black, with his head covered, making it impossible to discern his appearance.

The person quickly approached the vicinity of the cave.

Then, somewhat uneasy, he turned his head and looked around.

Both Su Yun and the fat cultivator concealed their auras. With the help of the Concealing Breath Bead, the fat cultivator would not be detected even if they were not close.

So, after confirming that no one was nearby, the person in front finally relaxed.
