Chapter 379 Ling Xiao, that thief
Ling Xiao didn't care about Haotian's cold words.
He knew that for a sword fanatic like Haotian who was completely immersed in cultivation.
No matter what happens in the Hongmeng Immortal Realm, as long as it does not affect him, it is unimportant.
He was just a little worried because he saw that Bai Yaoyao and the other people from other worlds had excellent qualifications.
But it is unlikely that he would take much precaution.
After all, he is just a casual cultivator.
As long as these youngsters behave themselves, he will naturally not commit murder!

"Is this the inside of the Time Wheel Jade Plate?" Murong Liuguang looked around in amazement, and took a step forward, ripples appeared under his feet.
This is a dazzling sea of light, like countless fragments of stars interweaving and shining, and like a long river of time dotted with stars flowing slowly. It is quiet and dreamy here, and people cannot feel the passage of time.
"The spiritual energy here is very abundant! It is several times denser than outside!" Bai Yaoyao looked around happily. It turned out that her decision to take the risk was the right one. If she practiced in seclusion in a place like this, her cultivation would surely improve by leaps and bounds!
Chen Yingjie and the civet cat looked around habitually, trying to familiarize themselves with the environment, but it seemed endless and peaceful here, without any danger.
"Hey! Look! There seems to be something over there?"
Murong Liuguang, who was a few steps away from the others, suddenly pointed to their right front and shouted.
Several people stepped forward and looked.
"Is it a tower?"
"Or a house?"
It's a bit far away and can't be seen clearly.
Bai Yaoyao suggested, "Let's go and take a look!"
The rest of the people all responded.
The four of them slowly walked towards the shadow they had just seen. They were a little cautious because they were not sure if there was any hidden danger in it.
As the distance got closer, Bai Yaoyao could see clearly that what they had just seen was a palace full of dazzling lights.
The palace has carved railings and painted pillars, and its exterior walls seem to be inlaid with countless tiny gems, which flicker as the light in the secret realm changes. It is breathtakingly beautiful, but also adds a sense of unreality.
The palace gate was closed and it was impossible to see what was inside.
Bai Yaoyao's mind moved, and she had a rough guess about this palace. It was said that Ling Xiao Xuan Zun was a casual cultivator but he had reached the Dingtian level because he stayed in the Time Wheel Jade Plate for many years. Then this palace was obvious, it should be the residence of Ling Xiao Xuan Zun!
But before they came in, Ling Xiao Xuan Zun did not mention anything about the palace to her. He only told them to go in first and he would come later.
Bai Yaoyao walked a few steps forward, looked at the palace, and suggested: "It will take more than a day or two to practice in it. Why don't we go to the front of this mansion and wait. Ling Xiao Xuanzun should come in soon. When the time comes, we can ask if we can stay in the palace temporarily."
Bai Yaoyao finished speaking, but there was no response for a long time.
Her heart trembled and she turned her head sharply to look behind her.
There was nothing behind her, only ripples of starlight reminding her that this was the direction they came from. There was no trace of Chen Yingjie, Lingmao and Murong Liuguang!
"Brother Chen?!"
"Civet cat?!"
“Liu Guang?!”
Bai Yaoyao called out to everyone one by one, and in the space only the echo of her voice was heard, gradually spreading out.
Bai Yaoyao clenched her fists suddenly, her face looking very ugly.
They were obviously talking and laughing all the way.
I only saw the palace for a moment, and because it was too dazzling, I was distracted for a moment, and then I disappeared!
Bai Yaoyao was shocked and angry. Her first reaction was that Ling Xiao was responsible. Before they entered here, Ling Xiao praised them in a sarcastic tone for their good qualifications. Could it be that he thought they were not from this world, that those who were not of my kind must have different hearts, and then he killed them? !
But Bai Yaoyao quickly overturned this idea.
Ling Xiao was not aware of her trump card. With the cultivation levels of the four of them, even if they were tied together, they would not be a match for Ling Xiao.
If he really wanted to harm them, he wouldn't have to be so mysterious and should have just taken action directly!
Just when Bai Yaoyao was filled with doubts, the palace door in front of her suddenly creaked open.
Bai Yaoyao's eyes narrowed and she looked behind the door warily.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
An old woman with white hair and a wrinkled face walked out unsteadily, leaning on a walking stick.
"Little girl! We are guests, why are you standing at the door and not going in?!"
The old woman's voice was hoarse and rough, as if someone was rubbing a rough stone slowly on sandpaper, which made people's hair stand on end.
Bai Yaoyao felt a chill down his spine. There was someone else inside? Was it someone Ling Xiao Xuanzun had arranged to serve him?
The situation was unclear, Bai Yaoyao didn't dare to move, she could only try her best to adjust her facial expression, raised a harmless smile, and said softly:
"Hello, Grandma. I'm new here. What's your name?"
The old woman smiled slightly, and the wrinkles on her face stretched out like layers of chrysanthemums as she moved. She took a step forward, looked Bai Yaoyao up and down, then nodded with satisfaction.
Just when Bai Yaoyao was about to lose the fake smile on her face, she stretched out her wrinkled hand and grabbed Bai Yaoyao's small hand.
"What a pretty little girl! I haven't seen such a pretty girl in many years!"
After her right hand was held, Bai Yaoyao reflexively tried to pull it away, but found that it was as if welded by a piece of iron. No matter how hard she tried, it didn't move at all.
As if she didn't feel Bai Yaoyao's resistance at all, the old woman patted the back of her hand with a smile.
"Come on, girl, don't stand there stupidly! Come in with me, have some tea, some snacks, and rest!"
After saying that, he pulled Bai Yaoyao and went into the palace.
A huge force came, and Bai Yaoyao was almost pulled to stagger. Seeing that she was about to be pulled into the palace, Bai Yaoyao was terrified and hurriedly put force on her feet and pressed against the door, "Granny, Senior Ling Xiao asked me to wait for him at the door for a while! Let's not go in yet!"
Bai Yaoyao had to lie because she felt that the old woman who suddenly appeared behaved too strangely!
It seemed as if he couldn't wait to pull her into the palace!
At this moment, she began to doubt her previous speculation. Is this palace really the place where Ling Xiao Xuanzun practiced on a daily basis?
The situation was unclear, so she could only choose to pull out Ling Xiao's banner. In her opinion, the Time Wheel Jade Plate belonged to Ling Xiao, and the people inside should also be his. Hearing his name would probably make her feel a little bit hesitant!
But what Bai Yaoyao didn't expect was that when she mentioned Ling Xiao, the old lady who had a kind look just now suddenly changed her expression!
Those originally kind eyes suddenly became bloodshot and glared at her fiercely.
"You belong to that bastard Ling Xiao!"
