Chapter 438: Summoning
The Nether Cloud sped silently over the water’s surface.
The herb garden was now in sight.
Qin Sang and Mu Yifeng concealed their presence and carefully opened the herb garden’s barrier.
Upon entering, they discovered that Xie Ying and the others were not in secluded cultivation. Instead, they were gathered outside, anxiously watching the barrier. When they saw Qin Sang appear, they let out a collective sigh of relief.
"This is our fellow sect senior, Senior Brother Mu," Qin Sang introduced Mu Yifeng.
Xie Ying cupped his hands in greeting before urgently turning back to Qin Sang, asking in quick succession, "Senior Brother Qin, did you sense anything unusual outside?"
Qin Sang nodded and asked in return, "What did you notice?"
Xie Ying’s face was filled with worry. "Just a short while ago, several cultivators suddenly passed overhead in a rush, heading north. This has never happened so frequently before. Then, two squads of patrol guards traveled south together. Their evasion light was urgent, which means something must have happened in that direction! Is the great war about to begin?"
"Two patrol squads heading south? It seems someone has already returned and Stargazing Island has received the news."
Qin Sang glanced at Mu Yifeng.
On their way back, they had also seen many cultivators fleeing north, but they had not encountered any patrol squads.
