Chapter 124 Disappearance (6)_1
Zhuge Feng sat dazedly in the lake, the icy chill on his body had vanished, and his whole body slowly warmed up. However, he felt his heart was so very cold. Shangguan You had vanished, vanished right before his eyes.
The lakebed was serene, without any disturbance. Where could he possibly find Shangguan You?
A black figure appeared before Zhuge Feng. A large hand reached out, lifting the dazed man out of the lake.
With a THUD, Zhuge Feng’s drenched body was dumped onto the ground. A burning pain from his backside snapped him out of his daze. Looking at the small lake bathed in the silver moonlight before him, everything seemed so beautiful.
It was as if nothing had happened. Yet, whether it was Zhuge Feng or the five from Meiyi, they knew very well that everything just now had indeed occurred. The lake water had truly seemed to possess life.
Zhuge Feng suppressed the various uneasy feelings in his heart. The man who had disappeared with Shangguan You moments ago—his aura was so powerful. Such a powerful man should have a way to safely bring Shangguan You out. At this thought, Zhuge Feng inexplicably felt a sense of relief. He glanced at the five from Meiyi, who were lying on the ground, barely breathing.
He then turned his gaze back to the dark figure beside him. The man seemed young, yet also old. His pale face was devoid of any color, and he was as cold as a block of ice. Even though he stood quietly in front of him, Zhuge Feng couldn’t sense any aura from him.
Had it not been for seeing his figure and the ghostly way he had lifted him from the lake, Zhuge Feng would have doubted if he was even human. Did he even have an aura?
Such a man could strangely make people overlook his presence; his very presence felt even weaker than that of the five from Meiyi.
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Zhuge Feng asked, looking at Ye Ying beside him, his voice cold. Is this man friend or foe?
"Ye Ying." His voice was devoid of emotion, as if he were discussing matters that had nothing to do with him. His gaze was fixed on the tranquil waters of the lake, then shifted to the five from Meiyi. From them, Ye Ying sensed a dark aura. As a Hidden Guard myself, one who stands at the peak, these five are far too weak.
If the five from Meiyi knew what Ye Ying was thinking, they would undoubtedly cough up blood and die on the spot. In their circle, the five from Meiyi were indeed renowned; no one dared to look down on them. But that was only within *their* circle.
"Why did you save me? Who was it that just jumped in? Where are they now? Where can I find them? Will they be in danger?" Zhuge Feng asked hurriedly, his eyes anxiously scanning the small lake before him.
