Chapter 115: Sounding Wind Bell
Just kidnapped a Siye Association Operative and now he’s running out swinging around?
How dare this guy!?
Has he done similar things too many times, become a habitual offender, with no sense of awe left at all?
The moment he saw Dailin, Luxianbei almost lost control, wanting to rush out, pin him to the ground, and hold Xuan Ying Luo Fu to his neck, demanding to know Jiang Li’s whereabouts.
If the answer is satisfactory, he would give him a quick end; otherwise, he would let his head change places and then ask again using a targeted summoning spell.
Anyway, there is always a way to make him speak.
However, after taking several deep breaths to calm himself down, Luxianbei’s rationality temporarily took over, suppressing his inner impulse.
Now is not the time to act recklessly…
Dailin is a member of the Solar Eclipse Society; his appearance in this small oasis indicates that the Solar Eclipse Society is contacting the Semi-Urban Legend Tribe.
Although it is unclear what the Solar Eclipse Society is plotting by teaming up with the Semi-Urban Legends, neither side is good, and coming together can only lead to bad news.
Especially during this sensitive period, with unusual movements at Yumen Pass and a surge of urban legends emerging in the Gobi Desert…
Based on the Solar Eclipse Society’s past actions, appearing around Yumen Pass at this time is clearly an attempt to create some major news, and it cannot be ignored.
Since Dailin has appeared, Luxianbei will not let him escape easily; therefore, before taking action, it would be better to observe a little more and figure out the purpose of the Solar Eclipse Society’s contact with the Semi-Urban Legend Tribe.
If lucky, by following Dailin, he might find Jiang Li or even the Solar Eclipse Society’s lair near Yumen Pass.
Killing two birds with one stone!
At that time, he could take Jiang Li away without anyone noticing and avoid a brutal fight.
Moreover…
Luxianbei’s peripheral vision drifted toward Nanling Yaohua, frowning slightly.
From the intelligence she collected, and the spirit energy fluctuations she sensed, Dailin has at least a combat power of 1.121 new rabbits; once he decides to act, it will be essential to use all of his strength, leaving him no room to struggle, to avoid any unexpected situations.
But with Nanling Yaohua by her side, many methods would be inconvenient to deploy…
Just as Luxianbei was secretly calculating, Nanling Yaohua looked over at her, noticing her unusualness.
Her fists tightened, eyes bloodshot, breathing becoming hurried, clearly resembling someone who has seen an enemy but is trying hard to suppress her urge to explode.
Does she recognize those two people? Nanling Yaohua tilted her head and asked in a voice that only the two could hear, “Do you know them?”
Luxianbei glanced at Nanling Yaohua and nodded, “Mm.”
After a pause, she added, “That guy owes me a hundred bucks; it’s been over two years and hasn’t paid back. I can say it’s a deep grudge.”
Nanling Yaohua, “……” Do you think I would believe your nonsense? Obviously not!
Looking at “Lu Qingyi,” a figure suddenly flashed through Nanling Yaohua’s mind.
Luxianbei is like that; the more critical the moment, the more troubled he looks, the less he appears in good shape, as if doing so can make those who worry about him feel more at ease.
Seeing the unbelieving expression on Nanling Yaohua’s face, Luxianbei silently sighed and explained, “Alright, actually, that guy is a member of the Solar Eclipse Society. He is one of my targets as a special investigator coming near Yumen Pass this time.”
“……” Nanling Yaohua opened her mouth, hesitated several times before nodding.
She suddenly thought of a serious question.
If those Semi-Urban Legends come later, and they take the opportunity to launch a surprise attack while the two groups are trading, what would happen if the Semi-Urban Legends ran away and those two Solar Eclipse Society members ran away?
She is currently the leader of the Yumen Sands Sea Branch; they have been arch-enemies with those Semi-Urban Legend tribes for generations. If such chaotic circumstances arise, she would definitely have to chase after those Semi-Urban Legends. However, Luxianbei, as a Siye Association Operative, would certainly prioritize capturing the Solar Eclipse Society members.
Would they have to act separately?
Although Nanling Yaohua trusts Luxianbei’s strength, believing she can act on her own in this Gobi Desert, she doesn’t want to part ways with Luxianbei until she knows all of Luxianbei’s bottom lines.
Because, only through Luxianbei can she obtain some information about Luxianbei’s dependency.
Clearly, after seeing Luxianbei clinging to that girl and crying, then the terrible news arriving at Yumen Pass, she had already decided to accept her fate, returning to the Gobi alone, without disturbing them again.
Yet, once there is a chance, she still can’t help but be concerned.
This is a very contradictory, yet common mindset.
Like many people still secretly follow their ex-boyfriends/girlfriends’ social media after breaking up.

Moving forward, her feet stepped on the sandy ground mixed with small stones, making a rustling sound.
As soon as she reached the edge of the small oasis, Dailin stopped, fully deploying his spirit perception, his eyes vigilantly scanning left and right.
Watching his cautious appearance, the woman beside him rolled her eyes and mocked, “Are you that scared?”
“What do you know?” Dailin retorted rudely, “That’s a real calamity!”
Yes, he has long known that calamity could appear in this small oasis.
When he left the Miracle Cult’s camp, he had told other Miracle Cult members on the surface that he was going to procure supplies from the Semi-Urban Legend Tribe.
However, in this vast Gobi, there are many ways and places to obtain supplies; yet he specifically chose to trade with the Semi-Urban Legends, which feels suspicious upon reflection.
In fact, Dailin appeared here purely because he received an order from Fang Ji, to use himself as bait, leading the calamity to the designated location.
But others don’t realize how formidable this calamity is; Dailin, who has been mixed up in Dream Come True Entertainment City for years, knows it too well!
Since the calamity took down the Big Boss, her legend has been spreading along the Dream Come True Journey, almost becoming the existence with prestige second only to Black Peony and Jade Palace Fairy throughout the entire Dream Come True Voyage.
Now, half a year has passed since the calamity appeared in Dream Come True Entertainment City. During this time, she has experienced battles in Peach Source, the Pink Fluffy Rabbit turmoil in Shizhou City, and recently she even killed off the offspring of the Haze God in Shancheng… Now she would only be stronger than she was in Dream Come True Entertainment City!
Even if Fang Ji kindly helped him prepare an assistant, Dailin still feels that if he’s not careful, someone could actually d*e!
Before setting off, Dailin seriously asked Fang Ji two questions.
“How do you know the calamity will definitely appear there?”
Fang Ji smiled and replied, “I just feel it might happen, but I believe in miracles.”
“Then… how can you be sure that your subordinate won’t be killed by her before bringing the calamity to the designated location?”
“Because I believe in miracles!” Fang Ji still smiled, patting Dailin on the shoulder.
What he understood is, you’ve been reinforced; go and send!
This kind of thing is no different from asking an ordinary person to use their body to block an out-of-control truck and then ask him to believe in miracles; that he won’t d*e.
Although Dailin is a Miracle Cult member, he only believes miracles will happen at the gambling table; he is not a fanatic and hasn’t reached the point of joking with his life.
If it wasn’t for the fact that this task could only be accomplished by him to successfully entice the calamity, he would even want to take Jiang Li away from the Three Gorges Psychiatric Hospital and then immediately quit, hiding his identity until the storm passes.
But now…
Sigh!
“Ding ling—ding ling ling—!”
Just as Dailin was feeling anxious, a clear ringing sound suddenly floated from afar, entering his ears.
He paused for a moment, looking in the direction the sound came from, while focusing his spirit perception towards that direction, and suddenly his expression changed.
In the direction of the ringing sound, he sensed two very weak spirit energy fluctuations that would be hard to detect without careful probing…
“Run! Run fast! There’s an ambush!”
Dailin almost instantly jumped up, grabbing his companion, turning around and running like a madman without looking back.
————
On the other side.
The bell in her arms suddenly rang without warning. Before Luxianbei could figure out what was happening, she saw Dailin not far away, accelerating suddenly like a startled bird, shooting towards the vast Gobi like an arrow.
Oh no, we startled the snake!
No time to think, Luxianbei stood up abruptly, ready to chase.
The moment she stood up, her gaze casually swept over Nanling Yaohua’s face, and she suddenly stiffened.
On Nanling Yaohua’s face, she saw an extremely complex expression, filled with confusion, resentment, and even more mockery.
That feeling was like she had done something wrong, and Nanling Yaohua had already discovered it but had kept quiet, only to be caught in a perfect self-exposure.
In an instant, like an electric light flashed through Luxianbei’s mind, then gradually spread, intertwining into a complete event outline.
First, the bell she was holding was Nanling Yaohua’s, and it had emitted a bell warning when she was attacked by Oujinbang, saving her life, proving that the bell is a spirit energy item.
Secondly, a spirit energy item stays with its owner for a long time; naturally, subtle perceptions will develop, some can even reach the level of bl**d ties, sharing glory and losses together.
Finally, since the bell belongs to Nanling Yaohua, she must have sensed it as soon as she appeared at Hole Ridge Base.
Got it, I understand everything!
She had long sensed the existence of the bell but had been acting all along!
But now…
Luxianbei thought quickly, calming her mind, glancing at the dim outline of Dailin now far away, lightly biting her silver teeth, she said to Nanling Yaohua, “It’s urgent; I will explain later when I come back!”
First saving Miaomiao Sauce is the priority!
After she finished speaking, she flashed her shape, wielding her speed to the utmost, chasing after the direction Dailin had left, leaving a cloud of dust.
Behind her, Nanling Yaohua’s voice drifted far away.
“Lu… Qingyi, come back! The wind is picking up!”
After calling out softly, seeing Luxianbei not looking back, Nanling Yaohua bit her lip, hesitated slightly, and then chased after her.
Luxianbei isn’t clear about the specific use of this bell, but she understands very well.
When the Sounding Wind Bell rings, it means the wind is about to pick up in the Gobi Desert.
Not an ordinary strong wind, but a terrifying wind and sand that comes with the unusual occurrences at Yumen Pass…
