In the dungeon, the same bunch of tied up Shangqing clan members stared at each other. In the end, Shen Yunzhu broke the embarrassment first:

"Brother, since they are all out to find hostages, we'd better guard this place."

Tian Qiyuan leaned against the wall, "It's boring."

They originally wanted to capture a few escaped hostages, but unexpectedly at the beginning, Jiuyang Sect and Baiyun Sect jointly targeted them, preventing them from Wangyue Sect from leaving the dungeon. There was no other way, so the six of them had to come back and guard their homes.

Seeing that the second senior brother was depressed, Chu Xiu comforted him: "Hey, it doesn't matter. Let's relax at least."

Cheng Sixian: "That's what I say, but if Lichen Sect and Baihua Sect attack the dungeon later, can we hold it?"

"That's true." Chu Xiu scratched his head, "Why don't we set up a formation at the entrance first, so as not to catch them off guard."

As soon as this was said, the Wangyue clan members all agreed, so several people went to set up the formation, leaving only Shen Yunzhu and Su Cheng to guard the hostages in the dungeon.

Shangqing Zongzhuan was very dissatisfied with the master's foolish decision.

They agreed not to participate in the drill, but unexpectedly, those high-level officials from the immortal world bribed the master with 20,000 spirit stones and hired a few idlers like them to act as hostages.

This time, not only did he not have any freedom at all, but he also had to stay in this dark and damp dungeon until midnight. Thinking about it, he was at a loss.

Shen Yunzhu glanced at Su Cheng, who was waiting, walked over and said softly:

"Brother, please sit down and rest for a while. They won't enter the dungeon in a short time."

"It's okay, I'll watch them."

Su Cheng has always been more vigilant than other progenitors. He was afraid that these hostages might do something behind their back, so he kept a close eye on them and never left.

Shen Yunzhu stopped insisting, said "Okay" and found a chair nearby to sit on.

The Fifth Senior Brother was extremely difficult to capture, and she had done some research on this before coming to Wangyue Sect.

But regarding his identity and background, even the Evil God didn't have much information. She always felt that Su Cheng had many secrets hidden in him.

After thinking about it, she stood up from the chair again, pretending to guard the hostages with Su Cheng, but she moved slightly closer and asked:

"Fifth Senior Brother, did you practice alone before?"

"Well, I have never been a disciple."

Su Cheng didn't seem to like the female cultivator being too close to him, so he subconsciously moved to the side.

"Then you are really awesome. It must be very hard on your own."

"Fortunately."

Shen Yunzhu knew that he couldn't trick him out, so he glanced at his waist and said, "Fifth Senior Brother, why don't you wear the jade pendant I gave you? Did you lose it?"

"Jade pendant?" Su Cheng didn't react for a moment, and then suddenly remembered the black jade pendant that had been touched by his senior sister.

Shen Yunzhu saw his confused expression, and the disappointment in his eyes was clear, "Senior brother, please believe me, what I give you is definitely not an evil thing. The situation facing the immortal world is not optimistic. As direct descendants, we usually You should cultivate as soon as possible to the point where you can stand alone..."

Before she finished speaking, Su Chengcheng pulled down her sleeve and glanced in the direction of the cell, "Let's go over there and talk."

In fact, the Shangqing clan members were locked in the cell, chatting about their own affairs, and no one paid attention to what the two of them were talking about.

But Su Cheng thought that after all, only a few of them knew the efficacy of the jade pendant. If outsiders heard about it, it would still have an impact.

"I know you won't harm me, but if you absorb too much spiritual energy in a short period of time, your foundation will become unstable over time."

Su Cheng said lightly. In fact, this was just an excuse. The real reason was that the senior sister had told them that there was something wrong with this thing.

Therefore, even if he could accelerate the absorption of spiritual energy, he would not put himself in danger.

"Ok."

Shen Yunzhu didn't force himself. He walked outside the dungeon room and continued to stare at the hostages.

Time passed by minute by second, and the four people who formed the formation outside did not come back. Su Cheng felt something was wrong, so he told his junior sister:

"You stay here, I'll go take a look."

After that, without giving Shen Yunzhu time to answer, he trotted all the way to the entrance of the dungeon.

He raised his eyes and saw that there was not even a single figure here, let alone the formation.

Has everyone been arrested?

Su Cheng frowned slightly and clenched the hilt of the sword with his right hand. Before he could think of what to do next, a large net suddenly fell from the sky...

He reacted very quickly and rolled to the side. When he stood up again, there were four direct descendants of the Lichen Sect standing in front of him, all of them smiling brightly.

Lin Zhao was the first to speak: "Oh, it turns out that you Wangyue Sect is the only one here. If I had known, we would have gone to the dungeon first."

Su Cheng's eyebrows were indifferent, "You guys arrested my senior fellow apprentice?"

Lin Zhao: "That's right! My senior sister is guarding them, so we came to catch you."

Su Cheng: "..."

I knew I would be targeted.

Gu Nanfeng didn't talk nonsense as much as his junior brother, and directly released the pressure on him, pointing his sword at Su Cheng, "You can't beat me alone. Surrender now and you can save some energy."

"Ah."

Su Cheng responded and put back the sword in his hand. Lin Zhao was eager to step forward and put a restraining talisman on him, but he didn't expect that the kid turned around in the next second, and ran away as if speeding up.

"Huh? Shui Linggen runs so fast??"

Lin Zhao was about to give chase, but was stopped by Gu Nanfeng, "Stop chasing him. They should only have one Shen Yunzhu left in the dungeon. Let's rescue the hostages first."

"Ok."

Several people carried their swords and descended the steps, still watching cautiously along the way.

As a result, when they walked inside the dungeon, they found that it was empty except for a few ropes left on the ground, proving that the hostages had indeed stayed here.

Lin Zhao's eyes were as wide as copper bells, "No, can the hostages escape on their own?"

Chi Yixuan: "It shouldn't be. I remember that the rules of the game say that the hostages cannot move."

Gu Nanfeng also felt that it was outrageous. He searched around again and found a shining thing in the garbage.

"Look, what is that?"
